Official Summary

12/22/2010--Public Law. (This measure has not been amended since it was introduced. The summary of that version is repeated here.)

Repeals the conditions for reversion with respect to:
(1) failure to commence improvements in or operation of the recreational park; or
(2) abandonment or nonuse of the park after completion of construction and commencement of operation. States that title in the Islands and the related easements shall revert back to the United States 60 days after the Secretary of Interior notifies the District in writing that the District is not using any part of the conveyed property for recreational, environmental, or educational purposes in accordance with the National Children's Island, the Anacostia Waterfront Framework Plan, or the Comprehensive Plan.
