Providing for the Establishment of the Clara Barton National Historic Site, Md.; John Day Fossil Beds National Monument, Oreg.; Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site, N. Dak.; Springfield Armory National Historic Site, Mass.; Tuskegee Institute National Historic Site, Ala.; and Martin Van Buren National Historic Site, N.Y., and for Other Purposes

This report from the United States (US) House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, dated August 14, 1974, was written to accompany US House Resolution 13157 which proposed to establish six new historic sites in the United States, all to be classified under the National Park System, including the Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site in North Dakota. This report recommends minor wording amendments to US House Resolution 13157 and clarifies that the establishment of each historic site listed in US House Resolution 13157 was initially proposed as individual pieces of legislation that were all wrapped into this singular bill. The legislation to establish the Knife River historic site was originally proposed by Senator Quentin Burdick as US Senate Bill 1468 which passed the US Senate with amendments. US House Resolution 13157 became US Public Law 93-486 on October 26, 1974.https://commons.und.edu/indigenous-gov-docs/1025/thumbnail.jp
