Two historic Mississippi sites would join the National Park System
This bill would make the Grand Village of the Natchez Indians an official "affiliated area" of the National Park System right away. Historic Jefferson College in Natchez, Mississippi, would also become an affiliated area once the Secretary of the Interior confirms it meets National Park Service standards. These sites would be managed by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, with potential support from the federal government.
Today, the Grand Village of the Natchez Indians and Historic Jefferson College are not official affiliated areas of the National Park System. If this bill passes, the Grand Village of the Natchez Indians would immediately become an affiliated area, and Historic Jefferson College would become one once the Secretary of the Interior confirms it meets National Park Service standards.
