Senate bill 781 was presented to the 65th General Assembly of Tennessee to establish the “Tennessee Great Smoky Mountains Park Commission" for the purpose of establishing the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The U.S. Congress had agreed to create the park only if the states acquired the land. In 1924, North Carolina established the North Carolina Park Commission to set boundaries and purchase land. By 1931, both North Carolina and Tennessee had acquired over 100,000 acres that were deeded to the federal government and placed under the management of the Secretary of the Interior.
