    ``(b) Expansion of Boundaries.--(1) The boundaries of the Wilson's 
Creek National Battlefield are revised to include lands and interests 
therein consisting of six parcels totaling 615 acres and identified as

inspection in the appropriate offices of the National Park Service.
    ``(2) The Secretary is authorized to acquire the lands referred to 
in paragraph (1) by donation, by purchase from willing sellers with 
donated or appropriated funds, or by exchange. The Secretary may 
acquire by the same methods personal property associated with, and 
appropriate for, interpretation of the park.
    ``(c) Access to Private Property.--Nothing in this Act shall be 
construed to--
        ``(1) require any private property owner to allow public access

    private property; or
        ``(2) modify any provision of Federal, State, or local law with 
    regard to public access to or use of private property.
    ``(d) Liability.--The revision of the boundaries of the Wilson's

Service.''.
