Legislative Progress
Key Points
- This bill allows the Department of Agriculture to move a memorial that honors nine Air Force crew members who died in a 1982 training flight crash.
- The memorial is currently located on private land, and this change would move it to a public rest area in the Nantahala National Forest in North Carolina.
- No federal tax dollars will be spent on the move; the group or person requesting the relocation must pay for all costs, including the move itself and future maintenance.
- The move requires approval from several government groups, including the North Carolina Department of Transportation and federal highway officials, to ensure the new site is safe and appropriate.
