A bill to redesignate a playground in the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve in the State of West Virginia as the "Hearts of Gold Playground: In Honor of West Virginia Children and Families Impacted by Childhood Cancer".
Summary
What This Bill Does
The bill gives the primary playground south of the amphitheater in the Grandview area of New River Gorge National Park and Preserve, West Virginia, the official name 'Hearts of Gold Playground: In Honor of West Virginia Children and Families Impacted by Childhood Cancer.' It also requires every reference to that playground in a federal law, map, regulation, document, paper, or other United States record to be treated as a reference to the new name. The measure redesignates an existing National Park Service site; it does not build a playground, change park access, or provide a separate appropriation.
Who Benefits and How
West Virginia children and families affected by childhood cancer receive an enduring public commemoration at a prominent recreational site within New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Visitors and residents using the Grandview playground benefit from a consistent official identity that explains whom the site honors across park signs and federal materials.
Who Bears the Burden and How
National Park Service facilities and interpretive staff may need to update signs, visitor information, maps, inventories, and administrative references for the playground. Federal records administrators must apply the statutory reference rule when maintaining documents that use the playground's former or descriptive name; the resulting costs are limited to implementing the designation.
Key Provisions
- Requires the primary playground south of the Grandview amphitheater to carry the full Hearts of Gold Playground commemorative name.
- Provides that federal legal, regulatory, map, document, paper, and record references to the site are deemed to use the new designation.
- Limits the bill to renaming the existing playground without authorizing construction, operating changes, or a separate funding amount.
