                                 A BILL


 
  To provide for the conservation, management, and administration of 
    certain parks, forests, and other areas, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

   TITLE I--ANAKTUVUK PASS LAND EXCHANGE AND WILDERNESS REDESIGNATION

SEC. 101. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Anaktuvuk Pass Land Exchange and 
Wilderness Redesignation Act of 1995''.

SEC. 102. FINDINGS.

    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (94 
        Stat. 2371), enacted on December 2, 1980, established Gates of 
        the Arctic National Park and Preserve and Gates of the Arctic 
        Wilderness. The village of Anaktuvuk Pass, located in the 
        highlands of the central Brooks Range, is virtually surrounded 
        by these national park and wilderness lands and is the only 
        Native village located within the boundary of a National Park 
        System unit in Alaska.
            (2) Unlike most other Alaskan Native communities, the 
        village of Anaktuvuk Pass is not located on a major river, 
        lake, or coastline that can be used as a means of access. The 
        residents of Anaktuvuk Pass have relied increasingly on snow 
        machines in winter and all-terrain vehicles in summer as their 
        primary means of access to pursue caribou and other subsistence 
        resources.
            (3) In a 1983 land exchange agreement, linear easements 
        were reserved by the Inupiat Eskimo people for use of all-
        terrain vehicles across certain national parklands, mostly 
        along stream and river banks. These linear easements proved 
        unsatisfactory, because they provided inadequate access to 
        subsistence resources while causing excessive environmental 
        impact from concentrated use.
            (4) The National Park Service and the Nunamiut Corporation 
        initiated discussions in 1985 to address concerns over the use 
        of all-terrain vehicles on park and wilderness land. These 
        discussions resulted in an agreement, originally executed in 
        1992 and thereafter amended in 1993 and 1994, among the 
        National Park Service, Nunamiut Corporation, the City of 
        Anaktuvuk Pass, and Arctic Slope Regional Corporation. Full 
        effectuation of this agreement, as amended, by its terms 
        requires ratification by the Congress.

SEC. 103. RATIFICATION OF AGREEMENT.

    (a) Ratification.--
            (1) In general.--The terms, conditions, procedures, 
        covenants, reservations and other provisions set forth in the

        Slope Regional Corporation, Nunamiut Corporation, City of 
        Anaktuvuk Pass and the United States of America'' (hereinafter 
        referred to in this title as ``the Agreement''), executed by 
        the parties on December 17, 1992, as amended, are hereby 
        incorporated in this title, are ratified and confirmed, and set 
        forth the obligations and commitments of the United States, 
        Arctic Slope Regional Corporation, Nunamiut Corporation and the 
        City of Anaktuvuk Pass, as a matter of Federal law.
            (2) Land acquisition.--Lands acquired by the United States 
        pursuant to the Agreement shall be administered by the 
        Secretary of the Interior (hereinafter referred to as the 
        ``Secretary'') as part of Gates of the Arctic National Park and 
        Preserve, subject to the laws and regulations applicable 
        thereto.

        amended with the addition of approximately 56,825 acres as

                  TITLE X--STERLING FOREST PROTECTION

SEC. 1001. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Sterling Forest Protection Act of 
1995''.

SEC. 1002. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) the Palisades Interstate Park Commission was 
        established pursuant to a joint resolution of the 75th Congress 
        approved in 1937 (Public Resolution No. 65; ch. 706; 50 Stat. 
        719), and chapter 170 of the Laws of 1937 of the State of New 
        York and chapter 148 of the Laws of 1937 of the State of New 
        Jersey;
            (2) the Palisades Interstate Park Commission is responsible 
        for the management of 23 parks and historic sites in New York 
        and New Jersey, comprising over 82,000 acres;
            (3) over 8,000,000 visitors annually seek outdoor 
        recreational opportunities within the Palisades Park System;
            (4) Sterling Forest is a biologically diverse open space on 
        the New Jersey border comprising approximatley 17,500 acres, 
        and is a highly significant watershed area for the State of New 
        Jersey, providing the source for clean drinking water for 25 
        percent of the State;
            (5) Sterling Forest is an important outdoor recreational 
        asset in the northeastern United States, within the most 
        densely populated metropolitan region in the Nation;
            (6) Sterling Forest supports a mixture of hardwood forests, 
        wetlands, lakes, glaciated valleys, is strategically located on 
        a wildlife migratory route, and provides important habitat for 
        27 rare or endangered species;
            (7) the protection of Sterling Forest would greatly enhance 
        the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, a portion of which 
        passes through Sterling Forest, and would provide for enhanced 
        recreational opportunities through the protection of lands 
        which are an integral element of the trail and which would 
        protect important trail viewsheds;
            (8) stewardship and management costs for units of the 
        Palisades Park System are paid for by the States of New York 
        and New Jersey; thus, the protection of Sterling Forest through 
        the Palisades Interstate Park Commission will involve a minimum 
        of Federal funds;
            (9) given the nationally significant watershed, outdoor 
        recreational, and wildlife qualities of Sterling Forest, the 
        demand for open space in the northeastern United States, and 
        the lack of open space in the densely populated tri-state 
        region, there is a clear Federal interest in acquiring the 
        Sterling Forest for permanent protection of the watershed, 
        outdoor recreational resources, flora and fauna, and open 
        space; and
            (10) such an acquisition would represent a cost effective 
        investment, as compared with the costs that would be incurred 
        to protect drinking water for the region should the Sterling 
        Forest be developed.

SEC. 1003. PURPOSES.

    The purposes of this title are--
            (1) to establish the Sterling Forest Reserve in the State 
        of New York to protect the significant watershed, wildlife, and 
        recreational resources within the New York-New Jersey highlands 
        region;
            (2) to authorize Federal funding, through the Department of 
        the Interior, for a portion of the acquisition costs for the 
        Sterling Forest Reserve;
            (3) to direct the Palisades Interstate Park Commission to 
        convey to the Secretary of the Interior certain interests in 
        lands acquired within the Reserve; and
            (4) to provide for the management of the Sterling Forest

                manage.--If the Commission fails to manage the lands 
                acquired within the Reserve in a manner that is 
                consistent with this title, the Commission shall convey 
                fee title to such lands to the United States, and the 
                agreement stated in this subparagraph shall be recorded 
                at the time of purchase of all lands acquired within 
                the Reserve.
                    (B) Consent of owners.--No lands or interest in 
                land may be acquired with any Federal funds authorized 
                or transferred pursuant to this title except with the 
                consent of the owner of the land or interest in land.
                    (C) Inability to acquire lands.--If the Commission 
                is unable to acquire all of the lands within the 
                Reserve, to the extent Federal funds are utilized 
                pursuant to this title, the Commission shall acquire

                Park Service Wilderness Easement Lands'' and ``National

                acquisition of any other lands within the Reserve.
                    (D) Conveyance of easement.--Within 30 days after 
                acquiring any of the lands identified as ``National 
                Park Service Wilderness Easement Lands'' and ``National
