To amend the Dayton Aviation Heritage Preservation Act of 1992 to adjust the boundary of the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park, and for other purposes.
Summary
What This Bill Does
This bill amends the Dayton Aviation Heritage Preservation Act of 1992 to add a specific parcel to Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park. The added land is approximately one acre in Dayton, Ohio, shown as the Proposed Addition on the map titled Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park Proposed Boundary Addition and dated February 2023. The bill does not create a new park or a broad land program; its practical effect is to let the National Park Service manage the added parcel as part of the existing aviation heritage park. That can support preservation, visitor access, interpretation, or site operations connected to Dayton's aviation history, depending on how NPS integrates the parcel.
Who Benefits and How
Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park visitors benefit if the added acre improves access, preservation, or interpretation. National Park Service staff benefit from a clarified boundary for managing the proposed addition. Dayton preservation organizations benefit from federal recognition of an additional site connected to local aviation heritage. Ohio tourism offices benefit if the boundary adjustment strengthens the park's visitor experience.
Who Bears the Burden and How
National Park Service must update park maps, management records, and operational planning for the additional acre. Interior Secretary bears administrative responsibility for implementing the boundary adjustment. Federal taxpayers may bear any acquisition, management, maintenance, or interpretation costs tied to the added parcel. Adjacent land managers may need to coordinate access, boundaries, or maintenance with park staff.

- Adds approximately one acre in Dayton, Ohio to Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park.
- Identifies the parcel by the February 2023 Proposed Boundary Addition map.
