Rock Creek National Park Act of 2024
HR 8122 redesignates Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C., as Rock Creek National Park to reflect its nationally significant natural, cultural, and recreational resources. The bill updates all federal references to the park in laws, maps, regulations, and documents to use the new name "Rock Creek National Park" instead of "Rock Creek Park." It makes minor technical changes to existing statutes (like Title 40, U.S. Code) to replace the old name with the new one. This is a procedural name change with no new funding or policy provisions for park management.
