SEC. 101. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The United States and Indian tribes have a government-
        to-government relationship.
            (2) The United States has a trust responsibility, which 
        extends to all departments and agencies of the Federal 
        Government, to protect, conserve, and assist Indian tribal 
        governments in the management of Indian fish, wildlife, and 
        gathering resources in a manner consistent with--
                    (A) applicable Federal conservation laws; and
                    (B) the treaty and other rights of Indian tribes 
                arising under statutes, Executive orders, and Federal 
                judicial decrees.
            (3) Indian tribal governments--
                    (A) manage fish and wildlife resources, often in 
                cooperation with other tribal governments, and Federal, 
                State, and foreign governments; and
                    (B) often share management responsibilities for 
                fish and wildlife resources as a function of treaties, 
                statutes, and judicial decrees.
            (4) Comprehensive and improved management of Indian fish 
        and wildlife resources will yield greater economic returns, 
        enhance the conservation of fish and wildlife resources, 
        enhance Indian self-determination, strengthen tribal self-
        governance, promote employment opportunities, and improve the 
        social, cultural, and economic well-being of Indian communities 
        and neighboring communities.
            (5) The United States provides assistance to Indian tribes 
        to--
                    (A) achieve integrated resource management;
                    (B) regulate the exercise of hunting, fishing, 
                trapping, and gathering rights;
                    (C) protect and conserve populations and habitats 
                upon which the meaningful exercise of Indian rights 
                depend; and
                    (D) operate and maintain fish hatcheries and other 
                facilities and structures required for the prudent 
                management, enhancement, and mitigation of fish and 
                wildlife resources.

SEC. 102. PURPOSES.

    The purposes of this Act are as follows:
            (1) To reaffirm and protect Indian hunting, fishing, 
        trapping, and gathering rights, and contribute to the 
        conservation, prudent management, protection, orderly 
        development, and use of the resources upon which the meaningful 
        exercise of Indian rights depend.
            (2) To--
                    (A) enhance and maximize tribal capability and 
                flexibility in managing Indian fish and wildlife 
                resources for the continuing benefit of Indian people, 
                and
                    (B) better enable Indian tribal governments to 
                cooperate with States and other governments in managing 
                shared fish and wildlife resources for the benefit of 
                the Nation,
        in a manner consistent with the exercise of Indian hunting, 
        fishing, trapping, and gathering rights and the trust 
        responsibility of the United States to honor Indian treaty 
        rights and protect Indian resources.
            (3) To support the Federal policy of Indian self-
        determination and tribal self-governance by authorizing and 
        encouraging government-to-government relations, comanagement, 
        and cooperative agreements among Federal, State, local, and 
        Indian tribal governments, as well as international agencies 
        and commissions responsible for multijurisdictional fish and 
        wildlife resource decisionmaking.
            (4) To--
                    (A) authorize and establish Indian bison ranching 
                demonstration projects that may be administered by 
                Indian tribal governments pursuant to the Indian Self-
                Determination and Education Assistance Act (25 U.S.C. 
                450 et seq.) to meet tribal bison ranching and 
                management needs; and
                    (B) train Indian people in the use of such 
                techniques.
            (5) To authorize and establish an Indian Fish Hatchery 
        Assistance Program that may be administered by Indian tribal 
        governments pursuant to the Indian Self-Determination and 
        Education Assistance Act (25 U.S.C. 450 et seq.) to meet Indian 
        hatchery needs and fulfill tribal management and comanagement 
        responsibilities.
            (6) To authorize and establish an Indian Fish and Wildlife 
        Resource Management Education Assistance Program to promote and 
        develop full tribal technical capability and competence in 
        managing fish and wildlife resource programs.

   TITLE IV--NATIVE HAWAIIAN COMMUNITY-BASED FISHERIES DEMONSTRATION 
                                PROJECTS

SEC. 401. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Native Hawaiians are a distinct and unique indigenous 
        people with a historical continuity to the original inhabitants 
        of the Hawaiian archipelago and the society of Native Hawaiians 
        was organized and internationally recognized as a nation prior 
        to the arrival in Hawaii of the first nonindigenous people in 
        1778.
            (2) At the time of the arrival of the first nonindigenous 
        people in Hawaii in 1778, the Native Hawaiian people lived in a 
        highly organized, self-sufficient, subsistence society that was 
        based on a communal land tenure system and that had a 
        sophisticated language, culture, and religion.
            (3) As inhabitants of the most isolated archipelago in the 
        world, the Native Hawaiian people have, since time immemorial, 
        relied on their fishery resources for economic, social, 
        cultural, and spiritual sustenance.
            (4) The protection and preservation of traditional Native 
        Hawaiian fisheries practices, including the management and 
        conservation of fisheries resources, the enforcement of 
        conservation measures, and the integration of such practices 
        with modern management and conservation principles, are vital 
        to the well-being of the Native Hawaiian people.
            (5) Congress has adopted special laws for the benefit of 
        Native Hawaiians and the United States recognizes the distinct 
        rights of Native Hawaiians as beneficiaries of the Hawaiian 
        Homes Commission Act, 1920 (42 Stat. 108 et seq.) and the Act 
        entitled ``An Act to provide for the admission of the State of 
        Hawaii into the Union'', approved March 18, 1959 (commonly 
        known as the ``Hawaii Admission Act'') (73 Stat. 4; 48 U.S.C. 
        note prec. 491).
            (6) The United States--
                    (A) assumed special responsibilities for Native 
                Hawaiian lands and resources--
                            (i) at the time of annexation of the 
                        territory of Hawaii in 1898,
                            (ii) upon the adoption of the Hawaiian 
                        Homes Commission Act in 1921, and
                            (iii) upon the admission of the State of 
                        Hawaii into the Union in 1959, and
                    (B) has retained certain responsibilities described 
                in subparagraph (A).
            (7) The United States recognizes that the Federal policy of 
        self-determination and self-governance extends to all Native 
        Americans.

SEC. 402. PURPOSES.

    Consistent with the Federal policy of self-determination, the 
purposes of this title are as follows:

        enforcement, and economic enhancement of traditional Native 
        Hawaiian fisheries.
            (2) To protect Native Hawaiian fishing rights and to 
        provide for the planning, management, conservation, 
        enhancement, orderly development, and wise use of the resources 
        upon which the meaningful exercise of such rights depends.
            (3) To encourage communications and authorize cooperative 
        agreements between Federal and State agencies responsible for 
        multijurisdictional fisheries resources decisionmaking and 
        Native Hawaiian community-based entities.
            (4) To authorize and establish Native Hawaiian community-
