The National Park Service still does not officially own the land it needs for the Flight 93 National Memorial and a deadline is looming.The Department of Justice needs to file paperwork in the next three business days so construction can begin for the Flight 93 Memorial.In order for the September 11, 2010 dedication date to go as planned, construction has to begin right away. That's why the end of May was set as the deadline to get the land.The Department has already resorted to eminent domain to gain the property it needs, but the paperwork is not final.The transfer of a key piece of land owned by PBS Coals has also not officially been closed.Some people in the Alleghenies want to see the park done no matter what."I would hope that it would go through somehow. Someway it could be worked out so that the local community wouldn't suffer and that the park could still be there because it's important. It's important to our nation," said Evelyn Gaudry of Somerset County.
