What are the possibilities that land in a National Seashore would be condemned or experience a financial burden?
The National Park Service has a policy that avoids hostile condemnation of private land for public benefit. Legislation creating a National Park Service presence on the coast could explicitly prohibit such condemnation. No financial burdens are contemplated on landowners as a result of the creation of a National Seashore.
