        appropriate for disposal.
            (2) In order to promote responsible and orderly development

        Mountains National Recreation Area, which surround the Las 
        Vegas Valley.

the following occur:
            (1) The Aviation Department conducts an airspace assessment 
        to identify any adverse effect on access to the Las Vegas Basin 
        under visual flight rules that would result from the

        or both, on the land to be conveyed.
            (2) The Federal Aviation Administration certifies to the 
        Secretary that the Aviation Department's assessment is thorough 
        and that alternatives have been developed to address each 
        adverse effect identified in the assessment, including 
        alternatives that ensure access to the Las Vegas Basin under 
        visual flight rules at a level that is equal to or better than 
        existing access.
            (3) The Aviation Department enters into an agreement with 
        the Secretary to retain ownership of nearby Jean Airport and to 
        maintain and develop Jean Airport as a general aviation

an appraisal of the fair market value as of a date not later than 6 
months after the date of the enactment of this Act. The fair market 
value of each parcel conveyed after the end of such period shall be 
based on a subsequent appraisal. An appraisal conducted after such 
period shall consider the parcel in its unimproved state and shall not 
reflect any enhancement in value to the parcel based upon the existence 
or planned construction of infrastructure on or near the parcel.
    (e) Reversionary Interest.--During the 5-year period beginning 20 
years after the date on which the Secretary conveys the first parcel 
under subsection (a), if the Secretary determines that the Aviation 
Department is not developing or progressing toward the development of 
the conveyed lands as an airport facility, the Secretary may exercise a 
right to reenter the conveyed lands. Any determination of the Secretary 
under this subsection shall be made on the record after an opportunity 
for a hearing. If the Secretary exercises a right to reenter the 
conveyed lands under this subsection, the Secretary shall reimburse the 
Aviation Department for all payments made to the United States under 
subsection (c).
    (f) Withdrawal.--The public lands referred to in subsection (a) are 
hereby withdrawn from mineral entry under the Act of May 10, 1872 (30 
U.S.C. 22 et seq.; popularly known as the Mining Law of 1872), and the

              SCHOOL PURPOSES.

    (a) Transfers.--The Secretary of Agriculture may, upon a finding

required for the efficient operation of the project involved.
    (b) Costs.--Such transfers may be made at discounted or no-cost. 
The Secretary shall provide for a no-cost transfer to a local

        applicant; and
            (2) before the end of the 90-day period beginning on the 
        date of that receipt--
                    (A) determine whether or not to convey land 
                pursuant to the application, and notify the applicant 
                of that determination; or
                    (B) report to the Congress and the applicant the

SEC. 245. UTAH SCHOOLS AND LANDS EXCHANGE.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The State of Utah owns approximately 176,600 acres of 
        land, as well as approximately 24,165 acres of mineral 
        interests, administered by the Utah School and Institutional 
        Trust Lands Administration, within the exterior boundaries of 
        the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, established by 
        Presidential proclamation on September 18, 1996, pursuant to 
        section 2 of the Antiquities Act of 1906 (16 U.S.C. 431). The 
        State of Utah also owns approximately 200,000 acres of land, 
        and 76,000 acres of mineral interests, administered by the Utah 
        School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration, within the 
        exterior boundaries of several units of the National Park 
        System and the National Forest System, and within certain 
        Indian reservations in Utah. These lands were granted by 
        Congress to the State of Utah pursuant to the Utah Enabling 
        Act, chap. 138, 28 Stat. 107 (1894), to be held in trust for 
        the benefit of the State's public school system and other 
        public institutions.
            (2) Many of the State school trust lands within the 
        monument may contain significant economic quantities of mineral 
        resources, including coal, oil, and gas, tar sands, coalbed 
        methane, titanium, uranium, and other energy and metalliferous 
        minerals. Certain State school trust lands within the Monument, 
        like the Federal lands comprising the Monument, have 
        substantial noneconomic scientific, historic, cultural, scenic, 
        recreational, and natural resources, including ancient Native 
        American archaeological sites and rare plant and animal 
        communities.
            (3) Development of surface and mineral resources on State 
        school trust lands within the monument could be incompatible 
        with the preservation of these scientific and historic 
        resources for which the monument was established. Federal 
        acquisition of State school trust lands within the monument 
        would eliminate this potential incompatibility, and would 
        enhance management of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National 
        Monument.
            (4) The United States owns lands and interest in lands 
        outside of the monument that can be transferred to the State of 
        Utah in exchange for the monument inholdings without 
        jeopardizing Federal management objectives or needs.
            (5) In 1993, Congress passed and the President signed 
        Public Law 103-93, which contained a process for exchanging 
        State of Utah school trust inholdings in the National Park 
        System, the National Forest System, and certain Indian 
        reservations in Utah. Among other things, it identified various 
        Federal lands and interests in land that were available to 
        exchange for these State inholdings.
            (6) Although Public Law 103-93 offered the hope of a 
        prompt, orderly exchange of State inholdings for Federal lands 
        elsewhere, implementation of the legislation has been very 
        slow. Completion of this process is realistically estimated to 
        be many years away, at great expense to both the State and the 
        United States in the form of expert witnesses, lawyers, 
        appraisers, and other litigation costs.
            (7) The State also owns approximately 2,560 acres of land 
        in or near the Alton coal field which has been declared an area 
        unsuitable for coal mining under the terms of the Surface 
        Mining Control and Reclamation Act. This land is also 
        administered by the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands 
        Administration, but its use is limited given this declaration.
            (8) The large presence of State school trust land 
        inholdings in the monument, national parks, national forests, 
        and Indian reservations make land and resource management in 
        these areas difficult, costly, and controversial for both the 
        State of Utah and the United States.
            (9) It is in the public interest to reach agreement on 
        exchange of inholdings, on terms fair to both the State and the 
        United States. Agreement saves much time and delay in meeting 
        the expectations of the State school and institutional trusts, 
        in simplifying management of Federal and Indian lands and 
        resources, and in avoiding expensive, protracted litigation 
        under Public Law 103-93.
            (10) The State of Utah and the United States have reached 
        an agreement under which the State would exchange of all its 
        State school trust lands within the monument, and specified 
        inholdings in national parks, forests, and Indian reservations 
        that are subject to Public Law 103-93, for various Federal 
        lands and interests in lands located outside the monument, 
        including Federal lands and interests identified as available 
        for exchange in Public Law 103-93 and additional Federal lands 
        and interests in lands.
            (11) The State school trust lands to be conveyed to the 
        Federal Government include properties within units of the 
        National Park System, the National Forest System, and the Grand 
        Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The Federal assets made 
        available for exchange with the State were selected with a 
        great sensitivity to environmental concerns and a belief and 
        expectation by both parties that Federal assets to be conveyed 
        to the State would be unlikely to trigger significant 
        environmental controversy.
            (12) The parties agreed at the outset of negotiations to 
        avoid identifying Federal assets for conveyance to the State 
        where any of the following was known to exist or likely to be 
        an issue as a result of foreseeable future uses of the land: 
        significant wildlife resources, endangered species habitat, 
        significant archaeological resources, areas of critical 
        environmental concern, coal resources requiring surface mining 
        to extract the mineral deposits, wilderness study areas, 
        significant recreational areas, or any other lands known to 
        raise significant environmental concerns of any kind.
            (13) The parties further agreed that the use of any mineral 
        interests obtained by the State of Utah where the Federal 
        Government retains surface and other interest, will not 
        conflict with established Federal land and environmental 
        management objectives, and shall be fully subject to all 
        environmental regulations applicable to development of non-
        Federal mineral interest on Federal lands.
            (14) Because the inholdings to be acquired by the Federal 
        Government include properties within the boundaries of some of 
        the most renowned conservation land units in the United States, 
        and because a mission of the Utah School and Institutional 
        Trust Lands Administration is to produce economic benefits for 
        Utah's public schools and other beneficiary institutions, the 
        exchange of lands called for in this agreement will resolve 
        many longstanding environmental conflicts and further the 
        interest of the State trust lands, the school children of Utah, 
        and these conservation resources.
            (15) Under this Agreement taken as a whole, the State 
        interests to be conveyed to the United States by the State of 
        Utah, and the Federal interests and payments to be conveyed to 
        the State of Utah by the United States, are approximately equal 
        in value.
            (16) The purpose of this section is to enact into law and 
        direct prompt implementation of this historic agreement.
    (b) Ratification of Agreed Exchange Between the State of Utah and 
the Department of the Interior.--
            (1) Agreement.--The State of Utah and the Department of the 
        Interior have agreed to exchange certain Federal lands, Federal 
        mineral interests, and payment of money for lands and mineral 
        interests managed by the Utah School and Institutional Trust 
        Lands Administration, lands and mineral interests of 
        approximately equal value inheld within the Grand Staircase-
        Escalante National Monument the Goshute and Navajo Indian 
        Reservations, units of the National Park System, the National 
        Forest System, and the Alton coal fields.
            (2) Ratification.--All terms, conditions, procedures, 
        covenants, reservations, and other provisions set forth in the 
        document entitled ``Agreement to Exchange Utah School Trust 
        Lands Between the State of Utah and the United States of 
        America'' (in this section referred to as the ``Agreement'') 
        are hereby incorporated in this section, are ratified and 
        confirmed, and set forth the obligations and commitments of the 
        United States, the State of Utah, and Utah School and 
        Institutional Trust Lands Administration, as a matter of 
        Federal law.
    (c) Legal Descriptions.--
            (1) In general.--The maps and legal descriptions referred 
        to in the Agreement depict the lands subject to the 
        conveyances.
            (2) Public availability.--The maps and descriptions 
        referred to in the Agreement shall be on file and available for 
        public inspection in the offices of the Secretary of the 
        Interior and the Utah State Director of the Bureau of Land 
        Management.
            (3) Conflict.--In case of conflict between the maps and the 
        legal descriptions, the legal descriptions shall control.
    (d) Costs.--The United States and the State of Utah shall each bear 
its own respective costs incurred in the implementation of this 
section.
    (e) Repeal of Public Law 103-93 and Public Law 104-211.--The 
provisions of Public Law 103-93 (107 Stat. 995), other than section 
7(b)(1), section 7(b)(3), and section 10(b) thereof, are hereby 
repealed. Public Law 104-211 (110 Stat. 3013) is hereby repealed.

and made available by section 7(b)(1) and (b)(3) of Public Law 103-93, 
upon completion of all conveyances described in the Agreement, the

SEC. 311. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the industrial, cultural, and natural heritage legacies 
        of Michigan's automobile industry are nationally significant;
            (2) in the areas of Michigan including and in proximity to 
        Detroit, Dearborn, Pontiac, Flint, and Lansing, the design and 
        manufacture of the automobile helped establish and expand the 
        United States industrial power;
            (3) the industrial strength of automobile manufacturing was 
        vital to defending freedom and democracy in 2 world wars and 
        played a defining role in American victories;
            (4) the economic strength of our Nation is connected 
        integrally to the vitality of the automobile industry, which 
        employs millions of workers and upon which 1 out of 7 United 
        States jobs depends;
            (5) the industrial and cultural heritage of the automobile 
        industry in Michigan includes the social history and living 
        cultural traditions of several generations;
            (6) the United Auto Workers and other unions played a 
        significant role in the history and progress of the labor 
        movement and the automobile industry;
            (7) the Department of the Interior is responsible for 
        protecting and interpreting the Nation's cultural and historic 
        resources, and there are significant examples of these 
        resources within Michigan to merit the involvement of the 
        Federal Government to develop programs and projects in 
        cooperation with the Automobile National Heritage Area 
        Partnership, Incorporated, the State of Michigan, and other 
        local and governmental bodies, to adequately conserve, protect, 
        and interpret this heritage for the educational and 
        recreational benefit of this and future generations of 
        Americans;
            (8) the Automobile National Heritage Area Partnership, 
        Incorporated would be an appropriate entity to oversee the 
        development of the Automobile National Heritage Area; and
            (9) 2 local studies, ``A Shared Vision for Metropolitan 
        Detroit'' and ``The Machine That Changed the World'', and a 
        National Park Service study, ``Labor History Theme Study: Phase 
        III; Suitability-Feasibility'', demonstrated that sufficient 
        historical resources exist to establish the Automobile National 
        Heritage Area.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this subtitle is to establish the 
Automobile National Heritage Area to--
            (1) foster a close working relationship with all levels of

SEC. 401. BATTLE OF MIDWAY NATIONAL MEMORIAL STUDY.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) September 2, 1998, marked the 53d anniversary of the 
        United States victory over Japan in World War II.
            (2) The Battle of Midway proved to be the turning point in 
        the war in the Pacific, as United States Navy forces inflicted 
        such severe losses on the Imperial Japanese Navy during the 
        battle that the Imperial Japanese Navy never again took the 
        offensive against United States or allied forces.
            (3) During the Battle of Midway on June 4, 1942, an 
        outnumbered force of the United States Navy, consisting of 29 
        ships and other units of the Armed Forces under the command of 
        Admiral Nimitz and Admiral Spruance, outmaneuvered and out-
        fought 350 ships of the Imperial Japanese Navy.
            (4) It is in the public interest to study whether Midway 
        Atoll should be established as a national memorial to the 
        Battle of Midway to express the enduring gratitude of the 
        American people for victory in the battle and to inspire future 
        generations of Americans with the heroism and sacrifice of the 
        members of the Armed Forces who achieved that victory.
            (5) The historic structures on Midway Atoll should be 
        protected and maintained.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this section shall be to require a 
study of the feasibility and suitability of designating the Midway 
Atoll as a national memorial to the Battle of Midway within the 
boundaries of the Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge. The study of 
the Midway Atoll and its environs shall include, but not be limited to, 
identification of interpretive opportunities for the educational and 
inspirational benefit of present and future generations, and of the 
unique and significant circumstances involving the defense of the 
island by the United States in World War II and the Battle of Midway.
    (c) Study of The Establishment of Midway Atoll as a National 
Memorial to the Battle of Midway.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 6 months after the date of 
        enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Interior, acting 
        through the Director of the United States Fish and Wildlife 
        Service, shall carry out a study of the suitability and 
        feasibility of establishing Midway Atoll as a national memorial 
        to the Battle of Midway. The Secretary shall carry out the 
        study in consultation with the Director of the National Park 
        Service, the International Midway Memorial Foundation, Inc. 
        (referred to in this section as the ``Foundation''), the 
        Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Battle of Coral Sea Association, 
        the American Legion, or other appropriate veterans group, 
        respectively, and the Midway Phoenix Corporation.
            (2) Considerations.--In studying the establishment of 
        Midway Atoll as a national memorial to the Battle of Midway 
        under paragraph (1), the Secretary shall address the following:
                    (A) The appropriate Federal agency to manage such a 
                memorial, and whether and under what conditions to 
                lease or otherwise allow the Foundation or another 
                appropriate entity to administer, maintain, and fully 
                utilize for use as a national memorial to the Battle of 
                Midway the lands (including any equipment, facilities, 
                infrastructure, and other improvements) and waters of

SEC. 406. LOWER EAST SIDE TENEMENT NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, NEW YORK.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) immigration, and the resulting diversity of cultural 
        influences, is a key factor in defining American identity; the 
        majority of United States citizens trace their ancestry to 
        persons born in nations other than the United States;
            (2) the latter part of the 19th century and the early part 
        of the 20th century marked a period in which the volume of 
        immigrants coming to the United States far exceeded that of any 
        time prior to or since that period;
            (3) no single identifiable neighborhood in the United 
        States absorbed a comparable number of immigrants than the 
        Lower East Side neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City;
            (4) the Lower East Side Tenement at 97 Orchard Street in 
        New York City is an outstanding survivor of the vast number of 
        humble buildings that housed immigrants to New York City during 
        the greatest wave of immigration in American history;
            (5) the Lower East Side Tenement is owned and operated as a 
        museum by the Lower East Side Tenement Museum;
            (6) the Lower East Side Tenement Museum is dedicated to 
        interpreting immigrant life within a neighborhood long 
        associated with the immigrant experience in the United States, 
        New York's Lower East Side, and its importance to United States 
        history; and
            (7) the National Park Service found the Lower East Side 
        Tenement at 97 Orchard Street to be nationally significant; the 
        Secretary of the Interior declared it a National Historic 
        Landmark on April 19, 1994, and the National Park Service 
        through a special resource study found the Lower East Side 
        Tenement suitable and feasible for inclusion in the National 
        Park System.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are--
            (1) to ensure the preservation, maintenance, and 
        interpretation of this site and to interpret at the site the 
        themes of immigration, tenement life in the later half of the 
        19th century and the first half of the 20th century, the 
        housing reform movement, and tenement architecture in the 
        United States;
            (2) to ensure continued interpretation of the nationally 
        significant immigrant phenomenon associated with New York 
        City's Lower East Side and its role in the history of 
        immigration to the United States; and
            (3) to enhance the interpretation of the Castle Clinton, 
        Ellis Island, and Statue of Liberty National Monuments.
    (c) Definitions.--As used in this section:
            (1) Historic site.--The term ``historic site'' means the 
        Lower East Side Tenement at 97 Orchard Street on Manhattan

        historic site by subsection (d)(1).
            (2) Lower East Side Tenement Museum.--The term ``Lower East 
        Side Tenement Museum'' means the Lower East Side Tenement 
        Museum, a nonprofit organization established in New York City, 
        which owns and operates the tenement building at 97 Orchard

        operation and interpretation of the historic site with that of 
        the Lower East Side Tenement Historic Site and the Statue of 
        Liberty, Ellis Island, and Castle Clinton National Monument, as 
        the historic site's story and interpretation of the immigrant 
        experience in the United States is directly related to the 
        themes and purposes of these national monuments.
            (3) Ownership and operation.--The Lower East Side Tenement

        the Lower East Side Tenement National Historic Site and the 
        Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and Castle Clinton national 
        monuments will be integrated and coordinated so as to enhance 
        the stories at each of the 4 sites. Such plan shall be 
        completed within 2 years after the enactment of this Act.
            (4) Savings clause.--Nothing in this section authorizes the 
        Secretary to acquire the property at 97 Orchard Street or to 
        assume overall financial responsibility for the operation,

SEC. 407. GATEWAY VISITOR CENTER AUTHORIZATION, INDEPENDENCE NATIONAL 
              HISTORICAL PARK.

    (a) Findings and Purpose.--
            (1) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
                    (A) The National Park Service completed and 
                approved in 1997 a general management plan for 
                Independence National Historical Park that establishes 
                goals and priorities for the park's future.
                    (B) The general management plan for Independence 
                National Historical Park calls for the revitalization 
                of Independence Mall and recommends as a critical 
                component of the Independence Mall's revitalization the 
                development of a new ``Gateway Visitor Center''.
                    (C) Such a visitor center would replace the 
                existing park visitor center and would serve as an 
                orientation center for visitors to the park and to city 
                and regional attractions.
                    (D) Subsequent to the completion of the general 
                management plan, the National Park Service undertook 
                and completed a design project and master plan for 
                Independence Mall which includes the Gateway Visitor 
                Center.
                    (E) Plans for the Gateway Visitor Center call for 
                it to be developed and managed, in cooperation with the 
                Secretary of the Interior, by a nonprofit organization 
                which represents the various public and civic interests 
                of the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area.
                    (F) The Gateway Visitor Center Corporation, a 
                nonprofit organization, has been established to raise 
                funds for and cooperate in a program to design, 
                develop, construct, and operate the proposed Gateway 
                Visitor Center.
            (2) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to authorize 
        the Secretary of the Interior to enter into a cooperative 
        agreement with the Gateway Visitor Center Corporation to 
        construct and operate a regional visitor center on Independence 
        Mall.
    (b) Gateway Visitor Center Authorization.--
            (1) Agreement.--The Secretary of the Interior, in 
        administering the Independence National Historical Park, may

        corporation established under the laws of the State of 
        Pennsylvania) to facilitate the construction and operation of a 
        regional Gateway Visitor Center on Independence Mall.
            (2) Operations of center.--The Agreement shall authorize 
        the Corporation to operate the Center in cooperation with the 
        Secretary and to provide at the Center information, 
        interpretation, facilities, and services to visitors to 
        Independence National Historical Park, its surrounding historic 
        sites, the city of Philadelphia, and the region, in order to 
        assist in their enjoyment of the historic, cultural, 
        educational, and recreational resources of the greater 
        Philadelphia area.
            (3) Management-related activities.--The Agreement shall 
        authorize the Secretary to undertake at the Center activities 
        related to the management of Independence National Historical 
        Park, including, but not limited to, provision of appropriate 
        visitor information and interpretive facilities and programs 
        related to Independence National Historical Park.
            (4) Activities of corporation.--The Agreement shall 
        authorize the Corporation, acting as a private nonprofit 
        organization, to engage in activities appropriate for operation

SEC. 408. TUSKEGEE AIRMEN NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, ALABAMA.

    (a) Definitions.--As used in this section:
            (1) Historic site.--The term ``historic site'' means the 
        Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site as established by 
        subsection (d).
            (2) Secretary.--The term ``Secretary'' means the Secretary 
        of the Interior.
            (3) Tuskegee airmen.--The term ``Tuskegee Airmen'' means 
        the thousands of men and women who served in America's African-
        American Air Force units of World War II and shared in the 
        Tuskegee Experience.
            (4) Tuskegee university.--The term ``Tuskegee University'' 
        means the institution of higher education by that name located 
        in the State of Alabama and founded by Booker T. Washington in 
        1881, formerly named Tuskegee Institute.
    (b) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The struggle of African-Americans for greater roles in 
        North American military conflicts spans the 17th, 18th, 19th, 
        and 20th centuries. Opportunities for African-American 
        participation in the United States military were always very 
        limited and controversial. Quotas, exclusion, and racial 
        discrimination were based on the prevailing attitude in the 
        United States, particularly on the part of the United States 
        military, that African-Americans did not possess the 
        intellectual capacity, aptitude, and skills to be successful 
        fighters.
            (2) By the early 1940's these perceptions continued within 
        the United States military. Key leaders within the United 
        States Army Air Corps did not believe that African-Americans 
        possessed the capacity to become successful military pilots. 
        After succumbing to pressure exerted by civil rights groups and 
        the black press, the Army decided to train a small number of 
        African-American pilot cadets under special conditions. 
        Although prejudice and discrimination against African-Americans 
        was a national phenomenon, not just a southern trait, it was 
        more intense in the South where it had hardened into rigidly 
        enforced patterns of segregation. Such was the environment 
        where the military chose to locate the training of the Tuskegee 
        Airmen.
            (3) The military selected Tuskegee Institute (now known as 
        Tuskegee University) as a civilian contractor for a variety of 
        reasons. These included the school's existing facilities, 
        engineering and technical instructors, and a climate with ideal 
        flying conditions year round. Tuskegee Institute's strong 
        interest in providing aeronautical training for African-
        American youths was also an important factor. Students from the 
        school's civilian pilot training program had some of the best 
        test scores when compared to other students from programs 
        across the Southeast.
            (4) In 1941 the United States Army Air Corps awarded a 
        contract to Tuskegee Institute to operate a primary flight 
        school at Moton Field. Tuskegee Institute (now known as 
        Tuskegee University) chose an African-American contractor who 
        designed and constructed Moton Field, with the assistance of 
        its faculty and students, as the site for its military pilot 
        training program. The field was named for the school's second 
        president, Robert Russa Moton. Consequently, Tuskegee Institute 
        was one of a very few American institutions (and the only 
        African-American institution) to own, develop, and control 
        facilities for military flight instruction.
            (5) Moton Field, also known as the Primary Flying Field or 
        Airport Number 2, was the only primary flight training facility 
        for African-American pilot candidates in the United States Army 
        Air Corps during World War II. The facility symbolizes the 
        entrance of African-American pilots into the United States Army 
        Air Corps, although on the basis of a policy of segregation 
        that was mandated by the military and institutionalized in the 
        South. The facility also symbolizes the singular role of 
        Tuskegee Institute (Tuskegee University) in providing 
        leadership as well as economic and educational resources to 
        make that entry possible.
            (6) The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African-American 
        soldiers to complete their training successfully and to enter 
        the United States Army Air Corps. Almost 1,000 aviators were 
        trained as America's first African-American military pilots. In 
        addition, more than 10,000 military and civilian African-
        American men and women served as flight instructors, officers, 
        bombardiers, navigators, radio technicians, mechanics, air 
        traffic controllers, parachute riggers, electrical and 
        communications specialists, medical professionals, laboratory 
        assistants, cooks, musicians, supply, firefighting, and 
        transportation personnel.
            (7) Although military leaders were hesitant to use the 
        Tuskegee Airmen in combat, the Airmen eventually saw 
        considerable action in North Africa and Europe. Acceptance from 
        United States Army Air Corps units came slowly, but their 
        courageous and, in many cases, heroic performance earned them 
        increased combat opportunities and respect.
            (8) The successes of the Tuskegee Airmen proved to the 
        American public that African-Americans, when given the 
        opportunity, could become effective military leaders and 
        pilots. This helped pave the way for desegregation of the 
        military, beginning with President Harry S Truman's Executive 
        Order 9981 in 1948. The Tuskegee Airmen's success also helped 
        set the stage for civil rights advocates to continue the 
        struggle to end racial discrimination during the civil rights 
        movement of the 1950's and 1960's.
            (9) The story of the Tuskegee Airmen also reflects the 
        struggle of African-Americans to achieve equal rights, not only 
        through legal attacks on the system of segregation, but also 
        through the techniques of nonviolent direct action. The members 
        of the 477th Bombardment Group, who staged a nonviolent 
        demonstration to desegregate the officer's club at Freeman 
        Field, Indiana, helped set the pattern for direct action 
        protests popularized by civil rights activists in later 
        decades.
    (c) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are the following:
            (1) To benefit and inspire present and future generations 
        to understand and appreciate the heroic legacy of the Tuskegee 
        Airmen, through interpretation and education, and the 
        preservation of cultural resources at Moton Field, which was 
        the site of primary flight training.
            (2) To commemorate and interpret the impact of the Tuskegee 
        Airmen during World War II; the training process for the 
        Tuskegee Airmen including the roles played by Moton Field, 
        other training facilities, and related sites; the strategic

                programs for visitors benefit from the school's active 
                pilot training instruction program, and that the 
                training program will provide a historical continuum of 
                flight training in the tradition of the Tuskegee 
                Airmen. The Tuskegee University Department of Aviation 
                Science may be located in historic buildings within the 
                Moton Field complex until the Tuskegee Airmen National 
                Center has been completed.

                develop and operate the Tuskegee Airmen National 
                Center, and submit the report to the Committee on 
                Resources of the House of Representatives and the 
                Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the 
                Senate. Subject to the approval of the Congress, the 
                Secretary and Tuskegee University may enter into a 
                cooperative agreement to permit the development of the 
                Center. Before the balance of the land is donated and 
                before the development of the Tuskegee Airmen National 
                Center can proceed, a cooperative agreement acceptable 
                to the Secretary and Tuskegee University must be 
                executed.
            (7) General management plan.--Within 2 complete fiscal 
        years after funds are first made available to carry out this 
        section, the Secretary shall prepare, with the full

SEC. 409. LITTLE ROCK CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE, 
              ARKANSAS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) the 1954 United States Supreme Court decision of Brown 
        v. Board of Education, which mandated an end to the segregation 
        of public schools, was one of the most significant court 
        decisions in the history of the United States;
            (2) the admission of 9 African-American students, known as 
        the ``Little Rock Nine'', to Little Rock's Central high School 
        as a result of the Brown decision, was the most prominent 
        national example of the implementation of the Brown decision, 
        and served as a catalyst for the integration of other, 
        previously segregated public schools in the United States;
            (3) 1997 marked the 70th anniversary of the construction of 
        Central High School, which has been named by the American

        and
            (5) the designation of Little Rock Central High School as a 
        unit of the National Park System will recognize the significant 
        role the school played in the desegregation of public schools 
        in the South and will interpret for future generations the

          Subtitle A--San Rafael Swell National Heritage Area

SEC. 511. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS; PURPOSES.

    (a) Short Title.--This subtitle may be cited as the ``San Rafael 
Swell National Heritage Area Act''.
    (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The history of the American West is one of the most 
        significant chapters of United States history, and the major 
        themes and images of the history of the American West provide a 
        legacy that has done much to shape the contemporary culture, 
        attitudes, and values of the American West and the United 
        States.
            (2) The San Rafael Swell region of the State of Utah was 
        one of the country's last frontiers and possesses important 
        historical, cultural, and natural resources that are 
        representative of the central themes associated with the 
        history of the American West, including themes of pre-Columbian 
        and Native American culture, exploration, pioneering, 
        settlement, ranching, outlaws, prospecting and mining, water 
        development and irrigation, railroad building, industrial 
        development, and the utilization and conservation of natural 
        resources.
            (3) The San Rafael Swell region contains important 
        historical sites, including sections of the Old Spanish Trail, 
        the Outlaw Trail, the Green River Crossing, and numerous sites 
        associated with cowboy, pioneer, and mining history.
            (4) The heritage of the San Rafael Swell region includes 
        the activities of many prominent historical figures of the old 
        American West, such as Chief Walker, John Wesley Powell, Kit 
        Carson, John C. Fremont, John W. Gunnison, Butch Cassidy, John 
        W. Taylor, and the Swasey brothers.
            (5) The San Rafael Swell region has a notable history of 
        coal and uranium mining, and a rich cultural heritage of 
        activities associated with mining, such as prospecting, 
        railroad building, immigrant workers, coal camps, labor union 
        movements, and mining disasters.
            (6) The San Rafael Swell region is widely recognized for 
        its significant paleontological resources and dinosaur bone 
        quarries, including the Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry which 
        was designated as a National Natural Landmark in 1966.
            (7) The beautiful rural landscapes, historic and cultural 
        landscapes, and spectacular scenic vistas of the San Rafael 
        Swell region contain significant undeveloped recreational 
        opportunities for people throughout the United States.
            (8) Museums and visitor centers have already been 
        constructed in the San Rafael Swell region, including the John 
        Wesley Powell River History Museum, the College of Eastern Utah 
        Prehistoric Museum, the Museum of the San Rafael, the Western 
        Mining and Railroad Museum, the Emery County Pioneer Museum, 
        and the Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry, and these museums are 
        available to interpret the themes of the national heritage area 
        established by this title and to coordinate the interpretive 
        and preservation activities of the area.
            (9) Despite the efforts of the State of Utah, political 
        subdivisions of the State, volunteer organizations, and private 
        businesses, the cultural, historical, natural, and recreational 
        resources of the San Rafael Swell region have not realized 
        their full potential and may be lost without assistance from 
        the Federal Government.
            (10) Many of the historical, cultural, and scientific sites 
        of the San Rafael Swell region are located on lands owned by 
        the Federal Government and are managed by the Bureau of Land 
        Management or the United States Forest Service.
            (11) The preservation of the cultural, historical, natural, 
        and recreational resources of the San Rafael Swell region 
        within a regional framework requires cooperation among local 
        property owners and Federal, State, and local government 
        entities.
            (12) Partnerships between Federal, State, and local 
        governments, local and regional entities of these governments, 
        and the private sector offer the most effective opportunities 
        for the enhancement and management of the cultural, historical, 
        natural, and recreational resources of the San Rafael Swell 
        region.
    (c) Purposes.--The purposes of this subtitle are--
            (1) to establish the San Rafael Swell National Heritage 
        Area to promote the preservation, conservation, interpretation, 
        and development of the historical, cultural, natural, and 
        recreational resources related to the historical, cultural, and 
        industrial heritage of the San Rafael Swell region of the State 
        of Utah, which includes the counties of Carbon and Emery, and 
        portions of the county of Sanpete;
            (2) to encourage within the national heritage area a broad 
        range of economic and recreational opportunities to enhance the 
        quality of life for present and future generations;
            (3) to assist the State of Utah, political subdivisions of 
        the State and their local and regional entities, and nonprofit 
        organizations, or combinations thereof, in preparing and 
        implementing a heritage plan for the national heritage area and 
        in developing policies and programs that will preserve, 
        enhance, and interpret the cultural, historical, natural, 
        recreational, and scenic resources of the heritage area; and
            (4) to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to provide

            (1) In general.--Except as provided in subsection (b), the 
        Secretary shall permit domestic livestock grazing in areas of 
        the conservation area where grazing was established before the 
        enactment of this Act. Grazing in such areas may not be 
        reduced, increased, or withdrawn, except based solely on 
        scientific analyses of range conditions.

        title shall affect the maintenance, repair, replacement, or 
        improvement of, or ingress to or egress from, water catchment, 
        storage, and conveyance facilities in existence before the date 
        of the enactment of this Act that are associated with livestock

SEC. 553. LAND EXCHANGES RELATING TO SCHOOL AND INSTITUTIONAL TRUST 
              LANDS.

    (a) Exchange Authorized.--
            (1) Identification of lands and interests by state.--Not 
        later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the 
        Governor of the State of Utah may identify, describe, and 
        notify the Secretary of any school and institutional trust 
        lands the value or economic potential of which may be 
        diminished by establishment of the conservation area under this 
        title, and that the State would like to exchange for other 
        Federal lands or interests in land within the State of Utah.
            (2) Offer by secretary.--Not later than 1 year after the 
        date of receipt of notification under subsection (a), and after 
        seeking the advice of the Governor of the State of Utah on 
        potential lands for exchange, the Secretary shall transmit to 
        the Governor a list of Federal lands or interests in lands 
        within the State of Utah that the Secretary believes are 
        approximately equivalent in value to the lands described in 
        subsection (a) of this section, and shall offer such lands for 
        exchange to the State for the lands described in subsection 
        (a).
    (b) Ensuring Equivalent Value.--
            (1) In general.--In preparing the list under subsection 
        (a)(2), the Secretary shall take all steps as are necessary and 
        reasonable to ensure that the State of Utah agrees that the 
        lands offered by the Secretary are approximately equivalent in 
        value to the lands identified and described by the State under 
        subsection (a)(1).
            (2) Accounting for revenue sharing.--If the State of Utah 
        shares revenue from the properties to be acquired by the State 
        under this section, the value of such properties shall be the 
        value otherwise established under this section, reduced by a 
        percentage that represents the Federal revenue sharing 
        obligation. The amount of such reduction shall not be 
        considered a property right of the State of Utah.
    (c) Public Interest.--The exchange of lands included in the list 
prepared under subsection (a)(2) shall be construed as satisfying the 
provisions of section 206(a) of the Federal Land Policy and Management

            (1) School and institutional trust lands.--The term 
        ``school and institutional trust lands'' means those properties 
        granted by the United States in the Utah Enabling Act to the 
        State of Utah in trust, and other lands that under State law 
        must be managed for the benefit of the public school system or 
        the institutions of the State that are designated by the Utah 
        Enabling Act, that are located in the conservation area.
            (2) Utah enabling act.--The term ``Utah Enabling Act'' 
        means the Act entitled ``An Act to enable the people of Utah to 
        form a constitution and State government, and to be admitted 
        into the Union on an equal footing with the original States'', 
        approved July 16, 1894 (chapter 138; 28 Stat. 107).

SEC. 554. WATER RIGHTS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The San Rafael Swell region of Utah is a high desert 
        climate with little annual precipitation and scarce water 
        resources.
            (2) In order to preserve the limited amount of water 
        available to wildlife, the State of Utah has granted to the 
        Division of Wildlife Resources an in-stream flow right in the 
        San Rafael River.
            (3) This preserved right will guarantee that wetland and 
        riparian habitats within the San Rafael region will be 
        protected for designations such as wilderness, semi-primitive 
        areas, bighorn sheep, and other Federal land needs within the 
        San Rafael Swell region.
    (b) No Federal Reservation.--Nothing in this title or any other Act 
of Congress shall constitute or be construed to constitute either an 
express or implied Federal reservation of water or water rights for any 
purpose arising from the designation of areas as part of the 
conservation area or as a wilderness or semi-primitive area under this 
title.
    (c) Acquisition and Exercise of Water Rights Under Utah Law.--The 
United States may acquire and exercise such water rights as it deems 
necessary to carry out its responsibilities on any lands designated as 
part of the conservation area under this title pursuant to the 
substantive and procedural requirements of the State of Utah. Nothing 
in this title shall be construed to authorize the use of eminent domain 
by the United States to acquire water rights for such lands. Within 
areas designated as part of the conservation area under this title, all 
rights to water granted under the laws of the State of Utah may be 
exercised in accordance with the substantive and procedural 
requirements of the State of Utah.
    (d) Exercise of Water Rights Generally Under Utah Laws.--Nothing in 
this title shall be construed to limit the exercise of water rights as 
provided under the laws of the State of Utah.
    (e) Colorado River.--Nothing in this title shall be construed to 
affect the operation of any existing private, local, State, or 
federally owned dam, reservoir, or other water works on the Colorado 
River or its tributaries. Nothing in this title shall alter, amend, 
construe, supersede, or preempt any local, State, or Federal law; any 
existing private, local, or State agreement; or any interstate compact 
or international treaty pertaining to the waters of the Colorado River 
or its tributaries.

SEC. 555. MISCELLANEOUS.

    (a) State Fish and Wildlife Management.--In accordance with section 
4(d)(7) of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131(d)(7)), nothing in this 
title shall be construed as affecting the jurisdiction or 
responsibilities of the State of Utah with respect to fish and wildlife 
management activities, including water development, predator control, 
transplanting animals, stocking fish, hunting, fishing, and trapping.
    (b) Prohibition of Buffer Zones.--The Congress does not intend that 
the designation of an area by this title as part of the conservation 
area or a wilderness or semi-primitive area lead to the creation of 
protective perimeters or buffer zones around the area. It is the 
intention of the Congress that any protective perimeter or buffer zone 
be located wholly within such an area. The fact that nonconforming 
activities or uses can be seen or heard from land within such an area 
shall not, of itself, preclude such activities or uses up to the 
boundary of the area. Nonconforming activities that occur outside of 
the boundaries of such an area designated by this title shall not be 
taken into account in assessing unnecessary and undue degradation of 
such an area.
    (c) Roads and Rights-of-Way as Boundaries.--Unless depicted 
otherwise on a map referred to in this title, where roads form the 
boundaries of an area designated as part of the conservation area or a 
wilderness or semi-primitive area under this title, the boundary of the 
area shall be set back from the center line of the road as follows:
            (1) A setback that corresponds with the boundary of the 
        right-of-way for Interstate 70.
            (2) 150 feet for high standard roads.
            (3) 100 feet for roads classified as County Class B roads.
            (4) 50 feet for roads equivalent to County Class D roads.
    (d) Access.--
            (1) Reasonable access allowed.--Subject to valid existing 
        rights, reasonable access shall be allowed to existing 
        improvements, structures, and facilities, including those 
        related to water and grazing resources, which are within the 
        conservation area or a wilderness or semi-primitive area 
        designated under this title, whether located on Federal or non-
        Federal lands, in order that they may be operated, maintained, 
        repaired, modified, or replaced as necessary.
            (2) Reasonable access defined.--For the purposes of this 
        subsection, the term ``reasonable access'' means right of entry 
        and includes access by motorized transport when necessarily, 
        customarily, or historically employed on routes in existence as 
        of the date of the enactment of this Act.
    (e) Land Acquisition by Exchange or Purchase.--The Secretary shall 
offer to acquire from non-governmental entities lands and interests in 
lands located within or adjacent to the conservation area or a 
wilderness or semi-primitive area designated under this title. Lands 
may be acquired under this subsection only by exchange or purchase from 
willing sellers.
    (f) Rights-of-way.--
            (1) Right-of-way claims not affected.--Nothing in this 
        title, including any reference to or depiction on the map 
        entitled ``San Rafael Swell National Heritage/Conservation Area 
        Proposed'', dated June 12, 1998, affects any right-of-way claim 
        that arose under section 2477 of the Revised Statutes (43 
        U.S.C. 932).
            (2) Depictions not determinative.--Any depiction or lack of 
        depiction of a highway, road, right-of-way, or trail on the map 
        entitled ``San Rafael Swell National Heritage/Conservation Area 
        Proposed'', dated June 12, 1998, shall not be considered in any 
        determination under section 2477 of the Revised Statutes (43 
        U.S.C. 932) of whether or not such highway, road, right-of-way, 
        or trail exists.

                    (B) By adding at the end the following new 
                subsection:

                        more specifically described as section 16, 
                        township 23 south, range 22 east, of the Salt 
                        Lake base and meridian, is partially contained 
                        within the Lost Spring Canyon Addition included 
                        within the boundaries of Arches National Park 
                        by the amendment by subsection (a).
                            (ii) The parcel was originally granted to 
                        the State of Utah for the purpose of generating 
                        revenue for the public schools through the 
                        development of natural and other resources 
                        located on the parcel.
                            (iii) It is in the interest of the State of 
                        Utah and the United States for the parcel to be 
                        exchanged for Federal lands of equivalent value 
                        outside the Lost Spring Canyon Addition, in 
                        order to permit Federal management of all lands

date of the enactment of this section, and in accordance with this 
section, the State of Utah offers to transfer all right, title and 
interest of the State in and to the parcel of school trust lands 
described in subsection (b)(1) to the United States, the Secretary of 
the Interior shall accept the offer on behalf of the United States and, 
within 180 days after the date of such acceptance, transfer to the 
State of Utah all right, title and interest of the United States in and 
to the parcel of land described in subsection (b)(2). Title to the 
State lands shall be transferred at the same time as conveyance of 
title to the Federal lands by the Secretary of the Interior. The 
exchange of lands under this section shall be subject to valid existing 
rights, and each party shall succeed to the rights and obligations of 
the other party with respect to any lease, right-of-way, or permit 
encumbering the exchanged lands.
    ``(b) Description of Parcels.--
            ``(1) State conveyance.--The parcel of school trust lands 
        to be conveyed by the State of Utah under subsection (a) is

extent and impact of such activities on Federal lands and resources and 
conduct, in a manner consistent with Federal laws, inventory, 
mitigation, and management activities in connection with any 
archaeological, paleontological, and cultural resources located on the 
acquired lands. To the extent consistent with applicable law governing 
the use and disposition of State school trust lands, the State shall

SEC. 603. MICCOSUKEE RESERVED AREA.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) Since 1964, the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida 
        have lived and governed their own affairs on a strip of land on 
        the northern edge of the Everglades National Park pursuant to 
        permits from the National Park Service and other legal 
        authority. The current permit expires in 2014.
            (2) Since the commencement of the Tribe's permitted use and 
        occupancy of the Special Use Permit Area, the Tribe's 
        membership has grown, as have the needs and desires of the

SEC. 604. CUMBERLAND ISLAND.

    (a) Boundary Adjustments for Land Exchange.--
            (1) Exclusion of certain conveyed lands.--If a proposed 
        land exchange described in subsection (b) is agreed to by the 
        Secretary of the Interior, any lands to be conveyed by the 
        United States as part of the land exchange shall be excluded 
        from the boundaries of the Cumberland Island Wilderness or the 
        potential wilderness area if the lands contain improvements.
            (2) Inclusion of acquired lands.--All lands acquired by the 
        United States as part of the land exchange described in 
        subsection (b) shall be included in, and managed as part of, 
        the Cumberland Island Wilderness. Upon acquisition of the 
        lands, the Secretary of the Interior shall adjust the 
        boundaries of the Cumberland Island Wilderness to include the 
        acquired lands.
    (b) Description of Land Exchange.--The land exchange referred to in 
subsection (a) is a land exchange with regard to Cumberland Island 
National Seashore and Cumberland Island Wilderness that is being 
negotiated by the Secretary of the Interior with the Nature Conservancy 
and High Point, Inc., for the purpose of acquiring privately owned 
lands on Cumberland Island, which have substantial wilderness 
characteristics, in exchange for Federal lands (or rights or interests 
therein) located at the north end of the island.
    (c) Treatment of Main Road.--
            (1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                    (A) The main road at Cumberland Island National 
                Seashore is included on the register of national 
                historic places.
                    (B) The continued existence and use of the main 
                road, as well as a spur road that provides access to 
                Plum Orchard mansion at Cumberland Island National 
                Seashore, is necessary for maintenance and access to 
                the natural, cultural, and historical resources of 
                Cumberland Island National Seashore.
                    (C) The preservation of the main road is not only 
                lawful, but also mandated under section 4(a)(3) of the 
                Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(a)(3)).
                    (D) The inclusion of these roads both on the

                Cumberland Island Wilderness or potential wilderness 
                area is incompatible and causes competing mandates on 
                the Secretary of the Interior for management.
            (2) Exclusion from wilderness.--The main road on Cumberland 
        Island (as described on the register of national historic 
        places), the spur road that provides access to Plum Orchard 
        mansion, and the area extending 10 feet on each side of the 
        center line of both roads are hereby excluded from the 
        boundaries of the Cumberland Island Wilderness and the 
        potential wilderness area.
            (3) Effect of exclusion.--Nothing in this subsection shall 
        be construed to affect the inclusion of the main road on the 
        register of national historic places or the authority of the 
        Secretary of the Interior to impose reasonable restrictions, 
        subject to valid existing rights, on the use of the main road 
        or spur road to minimize any adverse impacts on the Cumberland 
        Island Wilderness or the potential wilderness area.
    (d) Restoration of Plum Orchard Mansion.--
            (1) Restoration required.--Using funds appropriated 
        pursuant to the authorization of appropriations in paragraph 
        (4), the Secretary of the Interior shall restore Plum Orchard 
        mansion at Cumberland Island National Seashore so that the 
        condition of the restored mansion is at least equal to the 
        condition of the mansion when it was donated to the United 
        States. The Secretary shall endeavor to collect donations of 
        money and in-kind contributions for the purpose of restoring 
        structures within the Plum Orchard historic district.
            (2) Subsequent maintenance.--The Secretary of the Interior 
        shall endeavor to enter into an agreement with public persons, 
        private persons, or both, to provide for the maintenance of 
        Plum Orchard mansion following its restoration.
            (3) Restoration plan.--Not later than 270 days after the 
        date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the 
        Interior shall submit to Congress a comprehensive plan for the 
        repair, stabilization, restoration, and subsequent maintenance 
        of Plum Orchard mansion to the condition the mansion was in 
        when acquired by the United States.

        restoration and maintenance of Plum Orchard mansion under this 
        subsection.

        lands within Cumberland Island National Seashore, which 
        comprises approximately ____ acres on the southern portion of 
        Cumberland Island, as depicted on the map entitled ``Cumberland 
        Island Wilderness Addition, Proposed'', dated ________, 1998, 
        is hereby designated as wilderness and therefore as a component 
        of the National Wilderness Preservation System.
            (2) Administration.--The parcel designated by paragraph (1) 
        shall be administered by the Secretary of the Interior in

        the Cumberland Island Wilderness to include the parcel.
            (3) Existing rights and uses.--The designation of the

SEC. 610. CHATTAHOOCHEE RIVER NATIONAL RECREATION AREA.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that:
            (1) The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is a 
        nationally significant resource and the national recreation 
        area has been adversely affected by land use changes occurring 
        within and outside its boundaries.
            (2) The population of the metropolitan Atlanta area 
        continues to expand northward, leaving dwindling opportunities 
        to protect the scenic, recreation, natural, and historic values 
        of the 2,000-foot wide corridor adjacent to each bank of the 
        Chattahoochee River and its impoundments in the 48-mile segment 
        known as the area of national concern.
            (3) The State of Georgia has enacted the Metropolitan River 
        Protection Act in order to ensure the protection of the 
        corridor located within 2,000 feet of each bank of the 
        Chattahoochee River, or the 100-year flood plain, whichever is 
        greater, and such corridor includes the area of national 
        concern.
            (4) Visitor use of the Chattahoochee River National 
        Recreation Area has shifted dramatically since the 
        establishment of the national recreation area from waterborne 
        to water-related and land-based activities.
            (5) The State of Georgia and its political subdivisions 
        along the Chattahoochee River have indicated their willingness 
        to join in cooperative efforts with the United States of 
        America to link existing units of the national recreation area 
        with a series of linear corridors to be established within the 
        area of national concern and elsewhere on the river and 
        provided Congress appropriates certain funds in support of such 
        effort, funding from the State, its political subdivisions, 
        private foundations, corporate entities, private individuals, 
        and other sources will be available to fund more than half of 
        the estimated cost of such cooperative effort.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are to--
            (1) increase the level of protection of the remaining open 
        spaces within the area of national concern along the 
        Chattahoochee River and to enhance visitor enjoyment of such 
        areas by adding land-based links between existing units of the

                acres.''.

                     TITLE VIII--RIVERS AND TRAILS

SEC. 801. NATIONAL DISCOVERY TRAILS.

    (a) National Trails System Act Amendments.--
            (1) National Discovery Trails Established.--
                    (A) In general.--Section 3(a) of the National 
                Trails System Act (16 U.S.C. 1242(a)) is amended by 
                inserting after paragraph (4) the following:
            ``(5)(A) National discovery trails, established as provided 
        in section 5, which will be extended, continuous, interstate 
        trails so located as to provide for outstanding outdoor 
        recreation and travel and to connect representative examples of 
        America's trails and communities. National discovery trails 
        should provide for the conservation and enjoyment of 
        significant natural, cultural, and historic resources 
        associated with each trail and should be so located as to 
        represent metropolitan, urban, rural, and backcountry regions 
        of the Nation. Any such trail may be designated on Federal 
        lands and, with the consent of the owner thereof, on any non-
        Federal lands. The consent of the owner shall be obtained in 
        the form of a written agreement, which shall include such terms 
        and conditions as the parties to the agreement consider 
        advisable, and may include provisions regarding the 
        discontinuation of the trail designation. The Congress does not 
        intend for the establishment of a national discovery trail to 
        lead to the creation of protective perimeters or buffer zones 
        adjacent to a national discovery trail. The fact that there may 
        be activities or uses on lands adjacent to the trail that would 
        not be permitted on the trail shall not preclude such 
        activities or uses on such lands adjacent to the trail to the 
        extent consistent with other applicable law. Nothing in this 
        Act may be construed to impose or permit the imposition of any 
        landowner on the use of any non-Federal lands without the 
        consent of the owner. Neither the designation of a national 
        discovery trail nor any plan related thereto shall affect, or 
        be considered, in the granting or denial of a right-of-way or 
        any conditions relating thereto.
            ``(B) The appropriate Secretary for each national discovery 
        trail shall administer the trail in cooperation with a 
        competent trailwide volunteer-based organization. Where 
        national discovery trails are congruent with other local, 
        State, national scenic, or national historic trails, the 
        designation of the discovery trail shall not in any way 
        diminish the values and significance for which these trails 
        were established.''.
                    (B) Feasibility requirements; cooperative 
                management requirement.--Section 5(b) of such Act (16 
                U.S.C. 1244(b)) is amended by adding at the end the 
                following new paragraph:
            ``(12) For purposes of this subsection, a trail shall not 
        be considered feasible and desirable for designation as a 
        national discovery trail unless it meets all of the following 
        criteria:
                    ``(A) The trail must link to one or more areas 
                within the boundaries of a metropolitan area (as those 
                boundaries are determined under section 134(c) of title 
                23, United States Code). It should also join with other 
                trails, tying the National Trails System to significant 
                recreation and resources areas.
                    ``(B) The trail must be supported by at least one 
                competent trailwide volunteer-based organization. Each 
                trail shall have extensive local and trailwide support 
                by the public, by user groups, and by affected State 
                and local governments.
                    ``(C) The trail must be extended and pass through 
                more than one State. At a minimum, it should be a 
                continuous, walkable route. National discovery trails 
                are specifically exempted from the provisions of 
                sections 7(g) of this Act.
                    ``(D) The appropriate Secretary shall obtain 
                written consent from affected landowners prior to 
                entering nonpublic lands for the purposes of conducting 
                any surveys or studies of nonpublic lands for purposes 
                of this Act. Provided, before any designation or 
                establishment of any discovery trail provided by this 
                Act, the appropriate Secretary must ensure written 
                notification to all nonpublic landowners on which a 
                designated trail crosses or abuts nonpublic lands. 
                Furthermore, any nonpublic landowner that has property 
                crossed by or abutting land designated under this Act, 
                if trespassing should occur by travelers on the 
                National Discovery Trail, has the right to request and 
                subsequently require the appropriate Secretary to 
                coordinate with State and local officials to ensure to 
                the maximum extent feasible that no further trespassing 
                should occur on such nonpublic land.''.
            (2) Designation of the American Discovery Trail as a 
        National Discovery Trail.--Section 5(a) of such Act (16 U.S.C. 
        1244(a)) is amended as follows:
                    (A) By redesignating the paragraph relating to the 
                California National Historic Trail as paragraph (18).
                    (B) By redesignating the paragraph relating to the 
                Pony Express National Historic Trail as paragraph (19).
                    (C) By redesignating the paragraph relating to the 
                Selma to Montgomery National Historic Trail as 
                paragraph (20).
                    (D) By adding at the end the following:
    ``(21) The American Discovery Trail, a trail of approximately 6,000 
miles extending from Cape Henlopen State Park in Delaware to Point 
Reyes National Seashore in California, extending westward through 
Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, West Virginia, Ohio, and 
Kentucky, where near Cincinnati it splits into two routes. The Northern 
Midwest route traverses Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and 
Colorado, and the Southern Midwest route traverses Indiana, Illinois, 
Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado. After the two routes rejoin in Denver, 
Colorado, the route continues through Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and 
California. The trail is generally described in Volume 2 of the 
National Park Service feasibility study dated June 1995 which shall be 
on file and available for public inspection in the office of the 
Director of the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, the 
District of Columbia. The American Discovery Trail shall be 
administered by the Secretary of the Interior in cooperation with at 
least one competent trailwide volunteer-based organization, affected 
land managing agencies and State and local governments as appropriate. 
No lands or interests outside the exterior boundaries of federally 
administered areas may be acquired by the Federal Government solely for 
the American Discovery Trail. The American Discovery Trail is 
specifically exempted from the provisions of subsection (e), (f), and 
(g) of section 7.''.
            (3) Comprehensive National Discovery Trail Plan.--Section 5 
        of such Act (16 U.S.C. 1244) is further amended by adding at 
        the end the following new subsection:
    ``(g) Within 3 complete fiscal years after the date of enactment of 
any law designating a national discovery trail, the responsible 
Secretary shall submit a comprehensive plan for the protection, 
management, development, and use of the Federal portions of the trail, 
and provide technical assistance to States and local units of 
government and private landowners, as requested, for nonfederal 
portions of the trail, to the Committee on Resources of the United 
States House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural 
Resources of the United States Senate. In developing a comprehensive 
management plan for a national discovery trail, the responsible 
Secretary shall cooperate to the fullest practicable extent with the 
organizations sponsoring the trail. The responsible Secretary shall 
ensure that the comprehensive plan does not conflict with existing 
agency direction and shall consult with the affected land managing 
agencies, the Governors of the affected States, affected county and 
local political jurisdictions, and local organizations maintaining 
components of the trail. Components of the comprehensive plan include--
            ``(1) policies, objectives and practices to be observed in 
        the administration and management of the trail, including the 
        identification of all significant natural, historical, and 
        cultural resources to be preserved, model agreements necessary 
        for joint trail administration among and between interested 
        parties, and an identified carrying capacity for critical 
        segments of the trail and procedures for implementation, where 
        appropriate;
            ``(2) strategies for trail protection to retain the values 
        for which the trail is being established and recognized by the 
        Federal Government;
            ``(3) general and site-specific trail-related development, 
        including anticipated costs; and
            ``(4) the process to be followed to implement the trail

              CENTER.

    (a) Findings and Purposes.--
            (1) Findings.--The Congress finds and declares the 
        following:
                    (A) The city of Casper, Wyoming, is nationally 
                significant as the only geographic location in the 
                western United States where 4 congressionally 
                recognized historic trails (the Oregon Trail, the 
                Mormon Trail, the California Trail, and the Pony 
                Express Trail), the Bridger Trail, the Bozeman Trail, 
                and many Indian routes converged.
                    (B) The historic trails that passed through the 
                Casper area are a distinctive part of the national 
                character and possess important historical and cultural 
                values representing themes of migration, settlement, 
                transportation, and commerce that shaped the landscape 
                of the West.
                    (C) The Bureau of Land Management has not yet 
                established a historic trails interpretive center in 
                Wyoming or in any adjacent State to educate and focus 
                national attention on the history of the mid-19th 
                century immigrant trails that crossed public lands in 
                the Intermountain West.
                    (D) At the invitation of the Bureau of Land 
                Management, the city of Casper and the National 
                Historic Trails Foundation, Inc. (a nonprofit 
                corporation established under the laws of the State of 
                Wyoming) entered into a memorandum of understanding in 
                1992, and have since signed an assistance agreement in 
                1993 and a cooperative agreement in 1997, to create, 
                manage, and sustain a National Historic Trails 
                Interpretive Center to be located in Casper, Wyoming, 
                to professionally interpret the historic trails in the 
                Casper area for the benefit of the public.
                    (E) The National Historic Trails Interpretive 
                Center authorized by this section is consistent with 
                the purposes and objectives of the National Trails 
                System Act (16 U.S.C. 1241 et seq.), which directs the 
                Secretary of the Interior to protect, interpret, and 
                manage the remnants of historic trails on public lands.
                    (F) The State of Wyoming effectively joined the 
                partnership to establish the National Historic Trails 
                Interpretive Center through a legislative allocation of 
                supporting funds, and the citizens of the city of 
                Casper have increased local taxes to meet their 
                financial obligations under the assistance agreement 
                and the cooperative agreement referred to in paragraph 
                (4).
                    (G) The National Historic Trails Foundation, Inc. 
                has secured most of the $5,000,000 of non-Federal 
                funding pledged by State and local governments and 
                private interests pursuant to the cooperative agreement 
                referred to in subparagraph (D).
                    (H) The Bureau of Land Management has completed the 
                engineering and design phase of the National Historic 
                Trails Interpretive Center, and the National Historic 
                Trails Foundation, Inc. is ready for Federal financial 
                and technical assistance to construct the Center 
                pursuant to the cooperative agreement referred to in 
                subparagraph (D).

                a distinctive aspect of American heritage worthy of 
                interpretation and preservation.
                    (B) To assist the city of Casper, Wyoming, and the 
                National Historic Trails Foundation, Inc. in 
                establishing the National Historic Trails Interpretive 
                Center to memorialize and interpret the significant 
                role of those historic trails in the history of the 
                United States.
                    (C) To highlight and showcase the Bureau of Land

                  TITLE IX--HAZARDOUS FUELS REDUCTION

SEC. 901. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Community Protection and Hazardous 
Fuels Reduction Act of 1998''.

SEC. 902. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Management of Federal lands has been characterized by 
        large cyclical variations in fire suppression policies, timber 
        harvesting levels, and the attention paid to commodity and 
        noncommodity values.
            (2) Forests on Federal lands are experiencing significant 
        disease epidemics and insect infestations.
            (3) The combination of inconsistent management and natural 
        effects has resulted in a hazardous fuels buildup on Federal 
        lands that threatens catastrophic wildfire.
            (4) While the long-term effect of catastrophic wildfire on 
        forests and forest systems is a matter of debate, there should 
        be no question that catastrophic wildfire must be prevented in 
        areas of the Federal lands where wildlands abut, or are located 
        in close proximity to, communities, residences, and other 
        private and public facilities on non-Federal lands.
            (5) Wildfire resulting from hazardous fuels buildup in such 
        wildland/urban interface areas threatens the destruction of 
        communities, puts human life and property at risk, threatens 
        community water supplies with erosion that follows wildfire, 
        destroys wildlife habitat, and damages ambient air quality.
            (6) The Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the 
        Interior must assign a high priority and undertake aggressive 
        management to achieve the elimination of hazardous fuel buildup 
        and reduction of the risk of wildfire to the wildland/urban 
        interface areas on Federal lands. Protection of human life and 
        property, including water supplies and ambient air quality, 
        must be given the highest priority.
            (7) The noncommodity resources, including riparian zones 
        and wildlife habitats, in wildland/urban interface areas on 
        Federal lands which must be protected to provide recreational 
        opportunities, clean water, and other amenities to neighboring 
        communities and the public suffer from a backlog of unfunded 
        forest management projects designed to provide such protection.
            (8) In a period of fiscal austerity characterized by 
        shrinking budgets and personnel levels, Congress must provide 
        the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Interior 
        with innovative tools to accomplish the required reduction in 
        hazardous fuels buildup and undertake other forest management 
        projects in the wildland/urban interface areas on the Federal 
        lands at least cost.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this title is to provide new authority 
and innovative tools to the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary 
of the Interior to safeguard communities, lives, and property by 
reducing or eliminating the threat of catastrophic wildfire, and to 
undertake needed forest management projects, in wildland/urban 
interface areas on Federal lands.

may permit a purchaser that holds forest management credits earned by

credits to another sale authorized by subsection (a) if--
            (1) the subsequent sale is also purchased by that 
        purchaser; and
            (2) the sale parcel is located on Federal lands under that

        earned by or allowed to any purchaser of a sale authorized by 
        subsection (a) in the form of forest management credits shall 
        be considered to be money received for purposes of title II of 
        the Act of August 28, 1937 (50 Stat. 875; 43 U.S.C. 1181f), the 
        first section of the Act of May 24, 1939 (53 Stat. 753; 43

    (f) Report.--As soon as practicable after reaching its last 
decision under subsection (c), the Commission shall submit to the 
President and the Congress a report containing each decision, including 
the recommendation of the Commission regarding whether certain 
community land grants should be reconstituted, so that the Congress may

SEC. 1004. OTAY MOUNTAIN WILDERNESS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds and declares the following:
            (1) The public lands within the Otay Mountain region of 
        California are one of the last remaining pristine locations in 
        western San Diego County, California.
            (2) This rugged mountain adjacent to the United States-
        Mexico border is internationally known for its diversity of 
        unique and sensitive plants.
            (3) This area plays a critical role in San Diego's multi-
        species conservation plan, a national model made for 
        maintaining biodiversity.
            (4) Due to its proximity to the international border, this 
        area is the focus of important law enforcement and border 
        interdiction efforts necessary to curtail illegal immigration 
        and protect the area's wilderness values.
            (5) The illegal immigration traffic, combined with the 
        rugged topography, also presents unique fire management 
        challenges for protecting lives and resources.
    (b) Designation.--In furtherance of the purposes of the Wilderness 
Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.), certain public lands in the California 
Desert District of the Bureau of Land Management, California, 
comprising approximately 18,500 acres as generally depicted on a map 
entitled ``Otay Mountain Wilderness'' and dated May 7, 1998, are hereby 
designated as wilderness and therefore as a component of the National 
Wilderness Preservation System, which shall be known as the Otay 
Mountain Wilderness.
    (c) Map and Legal Description.--
            (1) In general.--As soon as practicable after the date of 
        enactment of this Act, a map and a legal description for the 
        Wilderness Area shall be filed by the Secretary with the 
        Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate and the 
        Committee on Resources of the House of Representatives. Such 
        map and legal description shall have the same force and effect 
        as if included in this Act, except that the Secretary, as 
        appropriate, may correct clerical and typographical errors in 
        such legal description and map. Such map and legal description 
        for the Wilderness Area shall be on file and available for 
        public inspection in the offices of the Director and California 
        State Director, Bureau of Land Management, Department of the 
        Interior.
            (2) United states-mexico border.--In carrying out this 
        subsection, the Secretary shall ensure that the southern 
        boundary of the Wilderness Area is 100 feet north of the trail 
        depicted on the map referred to in paragraph (1) and is at 
        least 100 feet from the United States-Mexico international 
        border.
    (e) Wilderness Review.--The Congress hereby finds and directs that 
all the public lands not designated wilderness within the boundaries of 
the Southern Otay Mountain Wilderness Study Area (CA-060-029) and the 
Western Otay Mountain Wilderness Study Area (CA-060-028) managed by the 
Bureau of Land Management and reported to the Congress in 1991, have 
been adequately studied for wilderness designation pursuant to section 
603 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 
1782), and are no longer subject to the requirements contained in 
section 603(c) of that Act pertaining to the management of wilderness 
study areas in a manner that does not impair the suitability of such 
areas for preservation as wilderness.
    (f) Administration of Wilderness Area.--
            (1) In general.--Subject to valid existing rights and to 
        paragraph (2), the Wilderness Area shall be administered by the 
        Secretary in accordance with the provisions of the Wilderness 
        Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.), except that--
                    (A) any reference in such provisions to the 
                effective date of the Wilderness Act is deemed to be a 
                reference to the effective date of this Act; and
                    (B) any reference in such provisions to the 
                Secretary of Agriculture is deemed to be a reference to 
                the Secretary of the Interior.
            (2) Border enforcement, drug interdiction, and wildland 
        fire protection.--Because of the proximity of the Wilderness 
        Area to the United States-Mexico international border, drug 
        interdiction, border operations, and wildland fire management 
        operations are common management actions throughout the area 
        encompassing the Wilderness Area. This section recognizes the 
        need to continue such management actions so long as such 
        management actions are conducted in accordance with the 
        Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.) and are subject to such 
        conditions as the Secretary considers appropriate.
    (g) Further Acquisitions.--Any lands within the boundaries of the 
Wilderness Area that are acquired by the United States after the date 
of enactment of this Act shall become part of the Wilderness Area and 
shall be managed in accordance with all the provisions of this section 
and other laws applicable to such a wilderness.
    (h) No Buffer Zones.--The Congress does not intend for the 
designation of the Wilderness Area by this section to lead to the 
creation of protective perimeters or buffer zones around the Wilderness 
Area. The fact that nonwilderness activities or uses can be seen or 
heard from areas within the Wilderness Area shall not, of itself, 
preclude such activities or uses up to the boundary of the Wilderness 
Area.
    (i) Definitions.--As used in this section:
            (1) Public lands.--The term ``public lands'' has the same 
        meaning as that term has in section 103(e) of the Federal Land 
        Policy and Management Act of 1976.
            (2) Secretary.--The term ``Secretary'' means the Secretary 
        of the Interior.
            (3) Wilderness area.--The term ``Wilderness Area'' means 
        the Otay Mountain Wilderness designated by subsection (b).

SEC. 1005. ACQUISITION AND MANAGEMENT OF WILCOX RANCH, UTAH, FOR 
              WILDLIFE HABITAT.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The lands within the Wilcox Ranch in eastern Utah are 
        prime habitat for wild turkeys, eagles, hawks, bears, cougars, 
        elk, deer, bighorn sheep, and many other important species, and 
        Range Creek within the Wilcox Ranch could become a blue ribbon 
        trout stream.
            (2) These lands also contain a great deal of undisturbed 
        cultural and archeological resources, including ancient 
        pottery, arrowheads, and rock homes constructed centuries ago.
            (3) These lands, while comprising only approximately 3,800 
        acres, control access to over 75,000 acres of Federal lands 
        under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management.
            (4) Acquisition of the Wilcox Ranch would benefit the 
        people of the United States by preserving and enhancing 
        important wildlife habitat, ensuring access to lands of the 
        Bureau of Land Management, and protecting priceless 
        archeological and cultural resources.
            (5) These lands, if acquired by the United States, can be 
        managed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources at no 
        additional expense to the Federal Government.
    (b) Acquisition of Lands.--As soon as practicable, after the date 
of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Interior shall 
acquire, through purchase, the Wilcox Ranch located in Emery County, in 
eastern Utah.
    (c) Funds for Purchase.--The Secretary of the Interior is 
authorized to use not more than $5,000,000 from the land and water 
conservation fund established under section 2 of the Land and Water 
Conservation Fund Act of 1965 (16 U.S.C. 460l-5) for the purchase of 
the Wilcox Ranch under subsection (b).
    (d) Management of Lands.--Upon payment by the State of Utah of one-
half of the purchase price of the Wilcox Ranch to the United States, or 
transfer by the State of Utah of lands of the same such value to the 
United States, the Secretary of the Interior shall transfer to the 
State of Utah all right, title, and interest of the United States in 
and to those Wilcox Ranch lands acquired under subsection (b) for 
management by the State Division of Wildlife Resources for wildlife 
habitat and public access.

SEC. 1006. ACQUISITION OF MINERAL AND GEOTHERMAL INTERESTS WITHIN MOUNT 
              ST. HELENS NATIONAL VOLCANIC MONUMENT.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Act entitled ``An Act to designate the Mount St. 
        Helens National Volcanic Monument in the State of Washington, 
        and for other purposes'', approved August 26, 1982 (96 Stat. 
        301; 16 U.S.C. 431 note), required the United States to acquire 
        all land and interests in land in the Mount St. Helens National 
        Volcanic Monument.
            (2) The Act directed the Secretary of Agriculture to 
        acquire the surface interests and the mineral and geothermal 
        interests by separate exchanges and expressed the sense of 
        Congress that the exchanges be completed by November 24, 1982, 
        and August 26, 1983, respectively.
            (3) The surface interests exchange was consummated timely, 
        but the exchange of all mineral and geothermal interests has 
        not yet been completed a decade and a half after the enactment 
        of the Act.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to provide for the 
expeditious completion of the previously mandated Federal acquisition 
of certain private mineral and geothermal interests within the Mount 
St. Helens National Volcanic Monument.
    (c) Acquisition.--Section 3 of the Act entitled ``An Act to 
designate the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument in the State 
of Washington, and for other purposes'', approved August 26, 1982 
(Public Law 97-243; 96 Stat. 302; 16 U.S.C. 431 note), is amended--
            (1) in subsection (a), by striking ``and except that the 
        Secretary may acquire mineral and geothermal interests only by 
        exchange. It is the sense of the Congress that in the case of 
        mineral and geothermal interests such exchanges should be 
        completed within one year after the date of enactment of the 
        Act''; and
            (2) by adding at the end the following new subsections:
    ``(g) Expeditious Completion of Exchanges For Mineral and 
Geothermal Interests.--
            ``(1) Definition of holder.--In this subsection, the term 
        `holder' means a company referred to in subsection (c) or its

                Secretary of the Interior shall issue to each such 
                holder monetary credits with a value of $2,100,000 that 
                may be used for the payment of--

        Granite watershed.
            (3) Monitoring of the presence of wildlife in the area in 
        which management activities are performed and the effect of the 
        activities on wildlife presence.
            (4) Such other resource management activities as the 
        Secretary considers appropriate to demonstrate enhanced 
        ecosystem health and water quality in the Granite watershed.
    (c) Compliance With Federal Law and Spotted Owl Guidelines.--All 
resource management activities performed under the contract shall be 
performed in a manner consistent with applicable Federal law and the 
standards and guidelines for the conservation of the California spotted

   TITLE XII--DUTCH JOHN FEDERAL PROPERTY DISPOSITION AND ASSISTANCE

SEC. 1201. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Dutch John Federal Property 
Disposition and Assistance Act of 1998''.

SEC. 1202. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1)(A) Dutch John, Utah, was founded by the Secretary of 
        the Interior in 1958 on Bureau of Reclamation land as a 
        community to house personnel, administrative offices, and 
        equipment for project construction and operation of the Flaming 
        Gorge Dam and Reservoir as authorized by the Act of April 11, 
        1956 (70 Stat. 105, chapter 203; 43 U.S.C. 620 et seq.); and
            (B) permanent structures (including houses, administrative 
        offices, equipment storage and maintenance buildings, and other 
        public buildings and facilities) were constructed and continue 
        to be owned and maintained by the Secretary of the Interior;
            (2)(A) Bureau of Reclamation land surrounding the Flaming 
        Gorge Reservoir (including the Dutch John community) was 
        included within the boundaries of the Flaming Gorge National 
        Recreation Area in 1968 under Public Law 90-540 (16 U.S.C. 460v 
        et seq.);
            (B) Public Law 90-540 assigned responsibility for 
        administration, protection, and development of the Flaming 
        Gorge National Recreation Area to the Secretary of Agriculture 
        and provided that lands and waters needed or used for the 
        Colorado River Storage Project would continue to be 
        administered by the Secretary of the Interior; and
            (C) most structures within the Dutch John community 
        (including the schools and public buildings within the 
        community) occupy lands administered by the Secretary of 
        Agriculture;
            (3)(A) the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of 
        the Interior are unnecessarily burdened with the cost of 
        continuing to provide basic services and facilities and 
        building maintenance and with the administrative costs of 
        operating the Dutch John community; and
            (B) certain structures and lands are no longer essential to 
        management of the Colorado River Storage Project or to 
        management of the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area;
            (4)(A) residents of the community are interested in 
        purchasing the homes they currently rent from the Secretary of 
        the Interior and the land on which the homes are located;
            (B) Daggett County, Utah, is interested in reducing the 
        financial burden the County experiences in providing local 
        government support services to a community that produces little 
        direct tax revenue because of Federal ownership; and
            (C) a withdrawal of the role of the Federal Government in 
        providing basic direct community services to Dutch John would 
        require local government to provide the services at a 
        substantial cost;
            (5)(A) residents of the Dutch John community are interested 
        in self-government of the community; and
            (B) with growing demands for additional commercial 
        recreation services for visitors to the Flaming Gorge National 
        Recreation Area and Ashley National Forest, there are 
        opportunities for private economic development, but few private 
        lands are available for the services; and
            (6) the privatization and disposal to local government of 
        certain lands in and surrounding Dutch John would be in the 
        public interest.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this title are--
            (1) to privatize certain lands in and surrounding Dutch 
        John, Utah;
            (2) to transfer jurisdiction of certain Federal property 
        between the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the 
        Interior;
            (3) to improve the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area;
            (4) to dispose of certain residential units, public 
        buildings, and facilities;
            (5) to provide interim financial assistance to local 
        government to defray the cost of providing basic governmental 
        services;
            (6) to achieve efficiencies in operation of the Flaming 
        Gorge Dam and Reservoir and the Flaming Gorge National 
        Recreation Area;
            (7) to reduce long-term Federal outlays; and
            (8) to serve the interests of the residents of Dutch John 
        and Daggett County, Utah, and the general public.
