Arkansas Delta National Heritage Area Act

The Arkansas Delta National Heritage Area Act establishes a new national heritage area in 17 counties across southern Arkansas, adding it to the existing National Heritage Area System. The bill designates Arkansas State University Heritage Sites as the local coordinating entity responsible for managing the site and requires them to submit a management plan to the Secretary of the Interior within three years of enactment. Federal assistance for this specific heritage area is set to expire 15 years after the law is signed, aligning with standard provisions for similar designations.
