DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

Chickasaw National Recreation Area; Park Boundary
AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice; correction of park boundary.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Public Law 94-235 established Chickasaw National Recreation Area on
March 17, 1976. The legislation specified that the total acreage of the
recreation area may not exceed 10,000 acres. On December 9, 1991, a
notice of a change in the boundary was published in the Federal
Register, Vol. 56, No. 236, page 64272. This notice revised the
boundaries of the area as depicted on a map entitled ``Boundary Map,
Chickasaw National Recreation Area,'' Drawing No. 107/80027, dated
April 1991.
During the process of transferring jurisdiction from the Bureau of
Reclamation to the National Park Service in accordance with the 1965
Memorandum of Agreement, three errors were made in mapping the original
boundary and these errors were perpetuated in subsequent mapping. The
three areas requiring correction are described as follows:
Boundary Area ``A'' is located in the NW\1/4\ of section 6,
Township 1 South, Range 3 East, Indian Meridian, Murray County,
Oklahoma. The original boundary is revised so as to exclude 41.16 acres
which were never acquired by the Bureau of Reclamation from H.H. Thomas
or C.W. Purtle. This parcel was never intended to be a part of the
Arbuckle Reservoir Project according to the Memorandum of Agreement and
the deed records for the project.
Boundary Area''B-1'' is located in the NE\1/4\ of section 6,
Township 1 South, Range 3 East, Indian Meridian, Murray County,
Oklahoma. The original boundary is revised so as to delete 10.10 acres
that were conveyed to Glenn Haines by the United States of America, as
recorded on May 27, 1966, in Book 159, page 619, of the deed records of
Murray County, Oklahoma.
Boundary Area ``B-2'' is located in the NE\1/4\ of section 6,
Township 1 South, Range 3 East, Indian Meridian, Murray County,
Oklahoma. The original boundary is revised so as to include 10.00 acres
that were conveyed to the United States of America by Glenn Haines and
Janetta Haines, as recorded on May 27, 1966, in Book 159, page 617, of
the deed records of Murray County, Oklahoma.
In summary, one change will add 10.00 acres and 2 changes will
delete 51.26 acres, creating a net decrease of 41.26 acres. With these
corrections made to the recreation area boundary, the current total
acreage is 9,888.83. The authority for implementing this action is
Public Law 94-235 (90 Stat. 235.)
Therefore, notice is hereby given that the boundary of Chickasaw
National Recreation Area should be revised as described above and
delineated on a map entitled ``Boundary Map, Chickasaw National
Recreation Area,'' numbered 107/80,030 and dated January 1993. This map
is on file and available for inspection in the Office of the National
Park Service, Department of the Interior, the Office of the Southwest
Region, National Park Service, and the Office of the Superintendent,
Chickasaw National Recreation Area.
Dated: September 23, 1993.
John E. Cook,
Regional Director, Southwest Region.
