This bill directs the federal government to study a 163‑mile stretch of the Hatchie River in Tennessee—from the Mississippi–Tennessee state line to where it meets the Mississippi River—to see if it should be added to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. It does not set new rules now; it only starts a formal study and community engagement process. The study must look for ways to work with state, regional, local, and community partners and be finished within three years after funding is provided.
