This bill authorizes the Pines Foundation to establish and maintain the Fire Island AIDS Memorial at the Fire Island National Seashore. The memorial aims to honor residents of Fire Island Pines and Cherry Grove who died from the AIDS epidemic and to educate future generations about its impact on these communities. The Director of the National Park Service may allow the memorial to be established along the walkway between Fire Island Pines and Cherry Grove, adjacent to the Carrington House. A key provision specifies that Federal funds are prohibited for the memorial's design, installation, or maintenance, though the Director can accept non-Federal funds . The final design of the memorial will be subject to the Director's approval.
