SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
        (1) By provision 64 of the agreement between the United States 
    and the Choctaws and Chickasaws dated March 21, 1902 (32 Stat. 641, 
    655-56), approved July 1, 1902, 640 acres of property were ceded to 
    the United States for the purpose of creating Sulphur Springs 
    Reservation, later known as Platt National Park, to protect water 
    and other resources and provide public access.
        (2) In 1976, Platt National Park, the Arbuckle Recreation Area, 
    and additional lands were combined to create Chickasaw National 
    Recreation Area to protect and expand water and other resources as 
    well as to memorialize the history and culture of the Chickasaw 
    Nation.
        (3) More recently, the Chickasaw Nation has expressed interest 
    in establishing a cultural center inside or adjacent to the park.
        (4) The Chickasaw National Recreation Area's Final Amendment to 
    the General Management Plan (1994) found that the best location for 
    a proposed Chickasaw Nation Cultural Center is within the 
    Recreation Area's existing boundary and that the selected cultural 
    center site should be conveyed to the Chickasaw Nation in exchange 
    for land of equal value.
        (5) The land selected to be conveyed to the Chickasaw Nation 
    holds significant historical and cultural connections to the people 
    of the Chickasaw Nation.
        (6) The City of Sulphur, Oklahoma, is a key partner in this 
    land exchange through its donation of land to the Chickasaw Nation 
    for the purpose of exchange with the United States.
        (7) The City of Sulphur, Oklahoma, has conveyed fee simple 
    title to the non-Federal land described as Tract 102-26 to the 
    Chickasaw Nation by Warranty Deed.
        (8) The National Park Service, the Chickasaw Nation, and the 
    City of Sulphur, Oklahoma, have signed a preliminary agreement to 
    effect a land exchange for the purpose of the construction of a 
    cultural center.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to authorize, direct, 
facilitate, and expedite the land conveyance in accordance with the 
terms and conditions of this Act.
