To clarify the boundary of Acadia National Park, and for other purposes.

This bill confirms that the boundary of Acadia National Park in Maine includes approximately 1,441 acres of land and interests in the Schoodic Peninsula.

The bill ratifies and approves:

• retroactive to September 26, 2013, the acquisition or purported acquisition by the United States of the land and interests in the Schoodic Peninsula, and
• any subsequent or purported alteration of the land or interests held or claimed by the United States in the peninsula (including conversion to fee simple interest) retroactive to whatever point an alteration occurred or may have occurred.

The Department of the Interior may only acquire land or interests in land:

• within the boundaries of the park in accordance with specified law; and
• outside the boundaries of the park in Hancock County, Maine, in accordance with such law.

Interior shall contribute a specified amount to a regional consortium which was established to improve the management of the disposal and recycling of solid waste and is composed of municipalities on, as well as near, Mount Desert Island.

Interior shall reestablish and appoint members to the Acadia National Park Advisory Commission.

Certain land in the park that was conveyed by Interior to the town of Tremont, Maine, shall no longer be used exclusively for school purposes, but for public purposes, subject to the conditions that: (1) use of the property (on such land) shall not degrade or adversely impact the park's resources or values; and (2) such land shall remain in public ownership for recreational, educational, or similar public purposes.
