Tract 01-121 is immediately adjacent to the current southern boundary of the Site; and, Tract 01-136 is located immediately adjacent to the current southeastern boundary of the Site.

16 U.S.C. 460l-9 (c)(1) provides that after notifying the House Committee on Natural Resources and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, the Secretary of the Interior is authorized to make this boundary revision upon publication of notice in the Federal Register.

Inclusion of these lands within the boundary will make a significant contribution to the purpose for which the Fort Laramie National Historic Site was established.
