    In order to provide for the benefit, inspiration, and education of 
the American people, there is hereby established the Natchez National 
Historical Park (hereinafter in this subchapter referred to as the 
``park'') in the State of Mississippi.

(b) Area included

    The park shall consist of the historic districts established under 
this subchapter and the following properties:

    with, Fort Rosalie.
        (3) The lands and structures known as the William Johnson House, 
    together with all personal property located on such lands, and the 
    building adjacent thereto which bears a common wall.

The property referred to in paragraph (2) shall be included within the 
park only if the Secretary of the Interior (hereinafter in this 
subchapter referred to as the ``Secretary'') determines that the 
historic resources of Fort Rosalie are of sufficient national 
significance and integrity to warrant inclusion in the National Park 
System. The Secretary shall make such determination after receiving from 
the Governor of the State of Mississippi and the mayor of the city of 
Natchez, in consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer, a 
recommendation based on scholarly research as to the national 
significance and integrity of such historic resources.

Department of the Interior in the District of Columbia. The Secretary 
may from time to time make minor revisions in the boundary of the park 
in accordance with section 460l-9(c) of this title.
