Wintergreen Emergency Egress Act

Chamber Passed·3/4/26

The Wintergreen Emergency Egress Act requires the Secretary of the Interior to issue a right-of-way for an emergency exit on certain National Park.

The Wintergreen Emergency Egress Act mandates the Secretary of the Interior to issue a right-of-way for an emergency exit on specific National Park Service land in Virginia. This action is contingent upon the completion of an evaluation of alternatives to the right-of-way for egress that do not cross federal land, an analysis of expected fire ecology behavior in the event of a fire emergency, and required reviews in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and division A of subtitle III of title 54, United States Code.
