This bill mandates the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a special resource study of the Camden Battlefield area in South Carolina, which encompasses the 1780 Battle of Camden site, Historic Camden, and other Revolutionary War resources. The study's core purpose is to evaluate the area's national significance and assess the suitability and feasibility of establishing it as a new unit of the National Park System, to be known as "Camden National Battlefield Park." Key aspects of the study include determining effective methods for the area's protection and interpretation, considering management by the National Park Service, other governmental bodies, or private entities. It also requires an assessment of a local partnership model for management and the transferability of existing structures. Finally, the study will identify cost estimates for any federal development, interpretation, operation, and maintenance, with a report due within three years of funding after consultation with relevant stakeholders.
