<DELETED>SEC. 312. FORT PECK FISH HATCHERY, MONTANA.</DELETED>

<DELETED>    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (1) Fort Peck Lake, Montana, is in need of a 
        multispecies fish hatchery;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (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;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (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</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (B) a disease or infrastructure failure at that 
        hatchery could imperil fish populations throughout the 
        region;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (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;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (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;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (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</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (B) the obligation to fund the stocking 
        constitutes an undue burden on the State; and</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (7) a viable multispecies fishery would spur 
        economic development in the region.</DELETED>

                    (A) Lewis and Clark were pioneering naturalists 
                that recorded dozens of species previously unknown to 
                science while ascending the Missouri River in 1804;
                    (B) the Missouri River, which is 2,321 miles long, 
                drains \1/6\ of the United States, is home to 
                approximately 10,000,000 people in 10 States and 28 
                Native American tribes, and is a resource of 
                incalculable value to the United States;
                    (C) the construction of dams, levees, and river 
                training structures in the past 150 years has aided 
                navigation, flood control, and water supply along the 
                Missouri River, but has reduced habitat for native 
                river fish and wildlife;
                    (D) river organizations, including the Missouri 
                River Basin Association, support habitat restoration, 
                riverfront revitalization, and improved operational 
                flexibility so long as those efforts do not 
                significantly interfere with uses of the Missouri 
                River; and
                    (E) restoring a string of natural places by the 
                year 2004 would aid native river fish and wildlife, 
                reduce flood losses, enhance recreation and tourism, 
                and celebrate the bicentennial of Lewis and Clark's 
                voyage.
            (2) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are--
                    (A) to protect, restore, and enhance the fish, 
                wildlife, and plants, and the associated habitats on 
                which they depend, of the Missouri River;
                    (B) to restore a string of natural places that aid 
                native river fish and wildlife, reduce flood losses, 
                and enhance recreation and tourism;
                    (C) to revitalize historic riverfronts to improve 
                quality of life in riverside communities and attract 
                recreation and tourism;
                    (D) to monitor the health of the Missouri River and 
                measure biological, chemical, geological, and 
                hydrological responses to changes in Missouri River 
                management;
                    (E) to allow the Corps of Engineers increased 
                authority to restore and protect fish and wildlife 
                habitat on the Missouri River;
                    (F) to protect and replenish cottonwoods, and their 
                associated riparian woodland communities, along the 
                upper Missouri River; and
                    (G) to educate the public about the economic, 
                environmental, and cultural importance of the Missouri 
                River and the scientific and cultural discoveries of 
                Lewis and Clark.

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 
        construction of a multispecies fish hatchery at Fort Peck Lake,

        hatchery.

                                1947; and
                                    (II) the costs to the State of
