, or which becomes invalid thereafter. Within thirty days following September 28, 1976
, the Secretary shall publish notice of the requirement for such recordation in the Federal Register. He shall also publish similar notices in newspapers of general circulation in the areas adjacent to those units of the National Park System listed in section 3 of this Act.Notes
