Notice is hereby given that the Director of the National Park Service has filed notice with the Governor of the state of Washington that the United States accepts concurrent legislative jurisdiction over the land and water administered by the National Park Service at Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area pursuant to 40 U.S.C. § 3112.
