    The National Park Service, part of the Interior Department, issued a correction notice in the Federal Register about a previous document concerning a boundary revision at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, now Indiana Dunes National Park. The original document, published on February 28, 2011, contained an incorrect map date and reference number. This notice corrects the map date from "October 2009" to "February 2010" and the reference number from "314/80,013" to "626/101,023." For more information, Lori Warner from the National Park Service can be contacted.

    The National Park Service made a mistake in a previous document about changing the borders of Indiana Dunes National Park and is now fixing two things: the date on the map and the number that helps identify the map.
