§ 12-a. Indian cemetery or burial grounds. The office of parks and recreation shall have the power to designate any Indian cemetery or burial ground as a place of historic interest pursuant to subdivision one of section 3.09 of the parks and recreation law provided, however, that such cemetery or burial ground is not located upon any Indian reservation located wholly or partly within the state. No person shall destroy, alter, convert, or in any way impair any such cemetery or burial ground which has been so designated as a place of historic interest or any artifact or other object thereon which is or may be of relevance to the historic interest thereof without the prior express written permission of the office of parks and recreation.
The attorney general, at the request of the office of parks and recreation, is hereby authorized to institute an action in supreme court in the judicial district wherein such cemetery or burial ground is located to enjoin violations or threatened violations of this section.
