Plain-language change summary

The changes to HR 2815 include the addition of specific details about the selection and conveyance of Federal land, including a provision that states the Secretary must convey the land to Cape Fox within 90 days upon receiving a written notice of selection from them. The term "Map" is also defined to clarify which map is referenced in the context of this bill. These changes matter as they establish a clear process and timeline for the conveyance of land to the Cape Fox Village Corporation, which could affect land management and ownership in that area.
