To redesignate the Salem Maritime National Historic Site as the “Salem Maritime National Historical Park”, and for other purposes, Sec. 3

Subsection (b). It sets a deadline of three years from the date funds are made available for the study, and names the two committees the report goes to. The report is to contain the results of the study and any findings, conclusions, and recommendations of the Secretary. The Act makes no funds available itself, so the clock starts elsewhere.

What the document actually says

“Not later than 3 years after the date on which funds are made available to conduct the study required under subsection (a), the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate a report”

To redesignate the Salem Maritime National Historic Site as the “Salem Maritime National Historical Park”, and for other purposes, Sec. 3
That sentence, in plain words

The report is due in three years. The clock starts when money for the study comes in. It goes to two groups in Congress.

What this is about

The report must say what the study found. It must also say what the Secretary thinks should be done.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
