SEC. 312. FORT PECK FISH HATCHERY, MONTANA.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) Fort Peck Lake, Montana, is in need of a multispecies 
        fish hatchery;
            (2) the burden of carrying out efforts to raise and stock 
        fish species in Fort Peck Lake has been disproportionately 
        borne by the State of Montana despite the existence of a 
        Federal project at Fort Peck Lake;
            (3)(A) as of the date of enactment of this Act, eastern 
        Montana has only 1 warm water fish hatchery, which is 
        inadequate to meet the demands of the region; and
            (B) a disease or infrastructure failure at that hatchery 
        could imperil fish populations throughout the region;
            (4) although the multipurpose project at Fort Peck, 
        Montana, authorized by the first section of the Act of August 
        30, 1935 (49 Stat. 1034, chapter 831), was intended to include 
        irrigation projects and other activities designed to promote 
        economic growth, many of those projects were never completed, 
        to the detriment of the local communities flooded by the Fort 
        Peck Dam;
            (5) the process of developing an environmental impact 
        statement for the update of the Corps of Engineers Master 
        Manual for the operation of the Missouri River recognized the 
        need for greater support of recreation activities and other 
        authorized purposes of the Fort Peck project;
            (6)(A) although fish stocking is included among the 
        authorized purposes of the Fort Peck project, the State of 
        Montana has funded the stocking of Fort Peck Lake since 1947; 
        and
            (B) the obligation to fund the stocking constitutes an 
        undue burden on the State; and
            (7) a viable multispecies fishery would spur economic 
        development in the region.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are--
            (1) to authorize and provide funding for the design and
