Plum Island National Monument Act

HR 1584, the Plum Island National Monument Act, establishes Plum Island, New York, as a national monument to protect its natural ecosystems, historical sites, and cultural heritage. The bill designates the Secretary of the Interior as the managing agency, requiring coordination with other federal departments through written agreements for lands within the monument area. It mandates the development of a management plan within three years of funding, which must then be submitted to specific congressional committees. This act directly affects the federal management of Plum Island and sets the framework for conservation and public access to the site.
