When title to lands and interests in lands in an amount sufficient
to constitute an efficiently administerable \1\ unit for the purposes of
sections 459g to 459g-7 of this title is vested in the United States,
the Secretary shall declare the establishment of the seashore by
publication of notice thereof in the Federal Register. Such notice shall
contain a refined description or map of the boundaries of the seashore
as the Secretary may find desirable and such exterior boundaries shall
encompass, as nearly as possible, the area generally described in
section 459g of this title. Copies of said description or map shall be
furnished to the Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate
not less than thirty days prior to publication in the Federal Register.
Following such establishment, and subject to the limitations and
conditions prescribed in sections 459g to 459g-7 of this title, the
Secretary may, subject to the provisions of section 459g-1 of this
title, acquire the remainder of the lands and interests in lands within
the boundaries of the seashore.
