Providing for a correction to the enrollment of the bill, S. 203.

(This measure has not been amended since it was introduced. The summary of that version is repeated here.)

Directs the Secretary of the Senate to correct the enrollment of S. 203 (National Heritage Areas Act of 2006) by amending federal law that establishes the Coastal Heritage Trail Route in New Jersey.

Revises the authorization of appropriations. Declares that funds made available under such law shall be used only for technical assistance and the design and fabrication of interpretive materials, devices, and signs. Prohibits the use of such funds for operation, repair, or construction costs, except for the costs of constructing interpretive exhibits. Sets the maximum federal share of any project under this Act at 50%, and requires a nonfederal match. Terminates the authorities of the Secretary of the Interior under such law on September 30, 2007.

Requires the Secretary to prepare a strategic plan that describes opportunities to increase participation in the planning, development, and administration of the route and organizational options for sustaining it.
