SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Saguaro National Park Establishment 
Act of 1994''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) the Saguaro National Monument was established by 
        Presidential Proclamation in 1933;
            (2) the Tucson Mountain unit was established by 
        Presidential Proclamation in 1961;
            (3) in recognition of the need to provide increased 
        protection for the monument, the boundaries of Tucson Mountain 
        unit were expanded in 1976, and the boundaries of Rincon unit 
        were expanded in 1991;
            (4) the Tucson Mountain unit continues to face threats to 
        the integrity of its natural resources, scenic beauty, and 
        habitat protection for which the unit was established;
            (5) these threats impede opportunities for public 
        enjoyment, education, and safety within the monument, as well 
        as opportunities for solitude within the wilderness areas of 
        the monument designated by Congress in 1976;
            (6) the residential and commercial growth of the greater 
        Tucson, Arizona metropolitan area is causing increasing threats 
        to the monument's resources; and
            (7) the Tucson Mountain unit should be enlarged by the 
        addition of adjacent lands of National Park caliber and Saguaro 
        National Monument should be afforded full recognition and 
        statutory protection as a National Park.

SEC. 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF SAGUARO NATIONAL PARK.

    There is hereby established the Saguaro National Park (hereinafter 
in this Act referred to as the ``park'') in the State of Arizona. The 
Saguaro National Monument is abolished as such, and all lands and 
interests therein are hereby incorporated within and made part of 
Saguaro National Park. Any reference to Saguaro National Monument shall 
be deemed a reference to Saguaro National Park, and any funds available 
for the purposes of the monument shall be available for purposes of the 
park.

SEC. 4. EXPANSION OF PARK BOUNDARIES.

    (a) In General.--The boundaries of the park are hereby modified to 
reflect the addition of approximately 3,460 acres of land and interests 
therein as generally depicted on the map entitled ``Saguaro National 
Monument Additions'' and dated April, 1994.
    (b) Land Acquisition.--(1) Within the lands added to the park 
pursuant to subsection (a), the Secretary is authorized to acquire 
lands and interests therein by donation, purchase with donated or 
appropriated funds, transfer, or exchange: Provided, That no such lands 
or interests therein may be acquired without the consent of the owner 
thereof unless the Secretary determines that the land is being 
developed, or is proposed to be developed in a manner which is 
determental to the integrity of the park.
    (2) Lands or interests therein owned by the State of Arizona or a 
political subdivision thereof may only be acquired by donation or 
exchange.
    (c) Withdrawal.--Subject to valid existing rights, all Federal 
lands within the park are hereby withdrawn from all forms of entry, 
appropriation, or disposal under the public land laws, from location,
