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

SECTION 1. LAND CONVEYANCE, BLUEGRASS ARMY DEPOT, RICHMOND, KENTUCKY.

    (a) Conveyance Authorized.--(1) The Secretary of the Army may 
convey, without consideration, to Madison County, Kentucky (in this 
section referred to as the ``County''), all right, title, and interest 
of the United States in and to a parcel of real property, including any 
improvements thereon, consisting of approximately 10 acres at the 
Bluegrass Army Depot, Richmond, Kentucky, for the purpose of 
facilitating the construction of a veterans' center on the parcel by 
the State of Kentucky.
    (2) The Secretary may not make the conveyance authorized by this 
subsection unless the Secretary determines that the State of Kentucky 
has appropriated adequate funds for the construction of the veterans' 
center.
    (b) Reversionary Interest.--If the Secretary determines that the 
real property conveyed under subsection (a) ceases to be utilized for 
the sole purpose of a veterans' center or that reasonable progress is 
not demonstrated in constructing the center and initiating services to 
veterans, all right, title, and interest in and to the property shall 
revert to the United States, and the United States shall have the right 
of immediate entry onto the property. Any determination under this 
subsection shall be made on the record after an opportunity for a 
hearing.
    (c) Administrative Expenses.--The Secretary shall apply section 
2695 of title 10, United States Code, to the conveyance authorized by 
subsection (a).
    (d) Description of Property.--The exact acreage and legal 
description of the real property to be conveyed under subsection (a) 
shall be determined by a survey satisfactory to the Secretary. The cost 
of the survey shall be borne by the County.
    (e) Additional Terms and Conditions.--The Secretary may require 
such additional terms and conditions in connection with the conveyance 
under subsection (a) as the Secretary considers appropriate to protect 
the interests of the United States.
