            (2) The per capita income in southeastern Oklahoma is 62 
        percent of the national average.
            (3) Reflecting the inadequate job opportunities and 
        dwindling resources in poor rural communities, southeastern 
        Oklahoma is experiencing an out-migration of people.
            (4) Water represents a vitally important resource in 
        southeastern Oklahoma. Its abundance offers an opportunity for 
        the residents to benefit from their natural resources.
            (5) Trends as described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) are 
        not conducive to local economic development, and efforts to 
        improve the management of water in the region would have a 
        positive outside influence on the local economy, help reverse

described in subsection (a), and in order to assist communities in 
southeastern Oklahoma in benefiting from their local resources, it is 
the sense of the House of Representatives that--
            (1) the State of Oklahoma and the Choctaw Nation of 
        Oklahoma and the Chickasaw Nation, Oklahoma, should establish a 
        State-tribal commission composed equally of representatives of 
        such Nations and residents of the water basins within the 
        boundaries of such Nations for the purpose of administering and 
        distributing from the sale of water any benefits and net 
        revenues to the tribes and local entities within the respective 
        basins;
            (2) any sale of water to entities outside the basins should 
        be consistent with the procedures and requirements established 
        by the commission; and
            (3) if requested, the Secretary should provide technical 
        assistance, as appropriate, to facilitate the efforts of the 
        commission.

        restriction is extinguished in each area where the elevation is 
        above the standard project flood elevation; and
            (3) the use of fill material to raise areas above the 
        standard project flood elevation, without increasing the risk 
        of flooding in or outside of the floodplain, is authorized, 
        except in any area constituting wetland for which a permit 
        under section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act 
        (33 U.S.C. 1344) would be required.

SEC. 602. SENSE OF CONGRESS CONCERNING HOMESTEAD AIR FORCE BASE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) the Everglades is an American treasure and includes 
        uniquely-important and diverse wildlife resources and 
        recreational opportunities;
            (2) the preservation of the pristine and natural character 
        of the South Florida ecosystem is critical to the regional 
        economy;
            (3) as this legislation demonstrates, Congress believes it 
        to be a vital national mission to restore and preserve this 
        ecosystem and accordingly is authorizing a significant Federal 
        investment to do so;
            (4) Congress seeks to have the remaining property at the 
        former Homestead Air Base conveyed and reused as expeditiously 
        as possible, and several options for base reuse are being 
        considered, including as a commercial airport; and
            (5) Congress is aware that the Homestead site is located in 
        a sensitive environmental location, and that Biscayne National 
        Park is only approximately 1.5 miles to the east, Everglades 
        National Park approximately 8 miles to the west, and the 
        Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary approximately 10 miles 
        to the south.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) development at the Homestead site could potentially 
        cause significant air, water, and noise pollution and result in 
        the degradation of adjacent national parks and other protected 
        Federal resources;
            (2) in their decisionmaking, the Federal agencies charged 
        with determining the reuse of the remaining property at the 
        Homestead base should carefully consider and weigh all 
        available information concerning potential environmental 
        impacts of various reuse options;
            (3) the redevelopment of the former base should be 
        consistent with restoration goals, provide desirable numbers of 
        jobs and economic redevelopment for the community, and be 
        consistent with other applicable laws;
            (4) consistent with applicable laws, the Secretary of the 
        Air Force should proceed as quickly as practicable to issue a 
        final SEIS and Record of Decision so that reuse of the former 
        air base can proceed expeditiously;
            (5) following conveyance of the remaining surplus property, 
        the Secretary, as part of his oversight for Everglades 
        restoration, should cooperate with the entities to which the 
        various parcels of surplus property were conveyed so that the 
        planned use of those properties is implemented in such a manner 
        as to remain consistent with the goals of the Everglades 
        restoration plan; and
            (6) by August 1, 2002, the Secretary should submit a report 
        to the appropriate committees of Congress on actions taken and 
        make any recommendations for consideration by Congress.
