        southern New Mexico;
            (2) the trackways contain footprints of numerous amphibians,
        reptiles, and insects (including previously unknown species),
        plants, and petrified wood dating back approximately 280,000,000
        years, which collectively provide new opportunities to understand
        animal behaviors and environments from a time predating the
        dinosaurs;
            (3) title III of Public Law 101-578 (104 Stat. 2860)--
                (A) provided interim protection for the site at which the
            trackways were discovered; and
                (B) directed the Secretary of the Interior to--
                    (i) prepare a study assessing the significance of the

                    (ii) based on the study, provide recommendations for
                protection of the paleontological resources at the site;
            (4) the Bureau of Land Management completed the Paleozoic
        Trackways Scientific Study Report in 1994, which characterized the
        site as containing ``the most scientifically significant Early
        Permian tracksites'' in the world;
            (5) despite the conclusion of the study and the recommendations
        for protection, the site remains unprotected and many irreplaceable
        trackways specimens have been lost to vandalism or theft; and
            (6) designation of the trackways site as a National Monument
        would protect the unique fossil resources for present and future
        generations while allowing for public education and continued
        scientific research opportunities.

        beginning on the date the order making the assessment was issued.
        Upon notice of such filing, the Secretary shall promptly file such
        a certified copy of the record on which the order was issued. The

            assessment of a civil penalty as described in the first
            sentence of this paragraph shall be required to pay, in

                ensure sustainable quantities of water;
            (6) it is critical to continue and expand research and
        monitoring efforts--

            (3) Seepage impacts.--The Secretary shall reduce Interim Flows
        to the extent necessary to address any material adverse impacts to
        third parties from groundwater seepage caused by such flows that
        the Secretary identifies based on the monitoring program of the
        Secretary.
            (4) Temporary fish barrier program.--The Secretary, in
        consultation with the California Department of Fish and Game, shall
        evaluate the effectiveness of the Hills Ferry barrier in preventing
        the unintended upstream migration of anadromous fish in the San
        Joaquin River and any false migratory pathways. If that evaluation
        determines that any such migration past the barrier is caused by
        the introduction of the Interim Flows and that the presence of such
        fish will result in the imposition of additional regulatory actions
        against third parties, the Secretary is authorized to assist the
        Department of Fish and Game in making improvements to the barrier.
        From funding made available in accordance with section 10009, if
        third parties along the San Joaquin River south of its confluence
        with the Merced River are required to install fish screens or fish
        bypass facilities due to the release of Interim Flows in order to
        comply with the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et
        seq.), the Secretary shall bear the costs of the installation of
        such screens or facilities if such costs would be borne by the
        Federal Government under section 10009(a)(3), except to the extent
        that such costs are already or are further willingly borne by the
        State of California or by the third parties.

    10006(b), nothing in this part shall modify or amend the rights and
    obligations under the Purchase Contract between Miller and Lux and the

                capacity of reach 4B prior to reinitiation of Restoration
                Flows;
                    (ii) the impacts associated with reinitiation of such
                flows; and
                    (iii) measures that shall be implemented to mitigate

                (A) In general.--The Secretary shall file a report with
            Congress not later than 90 days after issuing a determination,
            as required by the Settlement, on whether to expand channel
            conveyance capacity to 4500 cubic feet per second in reach 4B
            of the San Joaquin River, or use an alternative route for pulse
            flows, that--
                    (i) explains whether the Secretary has decided to
                expand Reach 4B capacity to 4500 cubic feet per second; and
                    (ii) addresses the following matters:

                        (I) The basis for the Secretary's determination,
                    whether set out in environmental review documents or
                    otherwise, as to whether the expansion of Reach 4B
                    would be the preferable means to achieve the
                    Restoration Goal as provided in the Settlement,
                    including how different factors were assessed such as
                    comparative biological and habitat benefits,
                    comparative costs, relative availability of State cost-
                    sharing funds, and the comparative benefits and impacts
                    on water temperature, water supply, private property,
                    and local and downstream flood control.
                        (II) The Secretary's final cost estimate for
                    expanding Reach 4B capacity to 4500 cubic feet per
                    second, or any alternative route selected, as well as
                    the alternative cost estimates provided by the State,
                    by the Restoration Administrator, and by the other
                    parties to the Settlement.
                        (III) The Secretary's plan for funding the costs of
                    expanding Reach 4B or any alternative route selected,
                    whether by existing Federal funds provided under this
                    subtitle, by non-Federal funds, by future Federal
                    appropriations, or some combination of such sources.

                (B) Determination required.--The Secretary shall, to the
            extent feasible, make the determination in subparagraph (A)
            prior to undertaking any substantial construction work to
            increase capacity in reach 4B.
            (3) Costs.--If the Secretary's estimated Federal cost for
        expanding reach 4B in paragraph (2), in light of the Secretary's
        funding plan set out in that paragraph, would exceed the remaining
        Federal funding authorized by this part (including all funds
        reallocated, all funds dedicated, and all new funds authorized by
        this part and separate from all commitments of State and other non-
        Federal funds and in-kind commitments), then before the Secretary
        commences actual construction work in reach 4B (other than
        planning, design, feasibility, or other preliminary measures) to
        expand capacity to 4500 cubic feet per second to implement this
        Settlement, Congress must have increased the applicable
        authorization ceiling provided by this part in an amount at least
        sufficient to cover the higher estimated Federal costs.

        9 of said Act (53 Stat. 1195), under mutually agreeable terms and
        conditions.
            (2) Upon request of the contractor, the Secretary is further
        authorized to convert, prior to December 31, 2010, any existing
        Friant Division long-term contract entered under subsection (c)(2)
        of section 9 of the Act of August 4, 1939 (53 Stat. 1194), to a
        contract under subsection (c)(1) of section 9 of said Act, under
        mutually agreeable terms and conditions.
            (3) All such contracts entered into pursuant to paragraph (1)
        shall--
                (A) require the repayment, either in lump sum or by
            accelerated prepayment, of the remaining amount of construction
            costs identified in the Central Valley Project Schedule of
            Irrigation Capital Rates by Contractor 2007 Irrigation Water
            Rates, dated January 25, 2007, as adjusted to reflect payments
            not reflected in such schedule, and properly assignable for
            ultimate return by the contractor, no later than January 31,
            2011, or if made in approximately equal annual installments, no
            later than January 31, 2014; such amount to be discounted by
            \1/2\ the Treasury Rate. An estimate of the remaining amount of
            construction costs as of January 31, 2011, as adjusted, shall
            be provided by the Secretary to each contractor no later than
            June 30, 2010;
                (B) require that, notwithstanding subsection (c)(2),
            construction costs or other capitalized costs incurred after
            the effective date of the contract or not reflected in the
            schedule referenced in subparagraph (A), and properly
            assignable to such contractor, shall be repaid in not more than
            5 years after notification of the allocation if such amount is
            a result of a collective annual allocation of capital costs to
            the contractors exercising contract conversions under this
            subsection of less than $5,000,000. If such amount is
            $5,000,000 or greater, such cost shall be repaid as provided by
            applicable Reclamation law, provided that the reference to the
            amount of $5,000,000 shall not be a precedent in any other
            context;
                (C) provide that power revenues will not be available to
            aid in repayment of construction costs allocated to irrigation
            under the contract; and
                (D) conform to the Settlement and this part and shall
            continue so long as the contractor pays applicable charges,
            consistent with subsection (c)(2) and applicable law.
            (4) All such contracts entered into pursuant to paragraph (2)
        shall--
                (A) require the repayment in lump sum of the remaining
            amount of construction costs identified in the most current
            version of the Central Valley Project Schedule of Municipal and
            Industrial Water Rates, as adjusted to reflect payments not
            reflected in such schedule, and properly assignable for
            ultimate return by the contractor, no later than January 31,
            2014. An estimate of the remaining amount of construction costs
            as of January 31, 2014, as adjusted, shall be provided by the
            Secretary to each contractor no later than June 30, 2013;
                (B) require that, notwithstanding subsection (c)(2),
            construction costs or other capitalized costs incurred after
            the effective date of the contract or not reflected in the
            schedule referenced in subparagraph (A), and properly
            assignable to such contractor, shall be repaid in not more than
            5 years after notification of the allocation if such amount is
            a result of a collective annual allocation of capital costs to
            the contractors exercising contract conversions under this
            subsection of less than $5,000,000. If such amount is
            $5,000,000 or greater, such cost shall be repaid as provided by
            applicable Reclamation law, provided that the reference to the
            amount of $5,000,000 shall not be a precedent in any other
            context; and
                (C) conform to the Settlement and this part and shall
            continue so long as the contractor pays applicable charges,
            consistent with subsection (c)(2) and applicable law.
        (b) Final Adjustment.--The amounts paid pursuant to subsection (a)
    shall be subject to adjustment following a final cost allocation by the
    Secretary upon completion of the construction of the Central Valley
    Project. In the event that the final cost allocation indicates that the
    costs properly assignable to the contractor are greater than what has
    been paid by the contractor, the contractor shall be obligated to pay
    the remaining allocated costs. The term of such additional repayment
    contract shall be no less than 1 year and no more than 10 years,
    however, mutually agreeable provisions regarding the rate of repayment
    of such amount may be developed by the parties. In the event that the
    final cost allocation indicates that the costs properly assignable to
    the contractor are less than what the contractor has paid, the
    Secretary is authorized and directed to credit such overpayment as an
    offset against any outstanding or future obligation of the contractor.
        (c) Applicability of Certain Provisions.--
            (1) Notwithstanding any repayment obligation under subsection
        (a)(3)(B) or subsection (b), upon a contractor's compliance with
        and discharge of the obligation of repayment of the construction
        costs as provided in subsection (a)(3)(A), the provisions of
        section 213(a) and (b) of the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982 (96
        Stat. 1269) shall apply to lands in such district.
            (2) Notwithstanding any repayment obligation under paragraph
        (3)(B) or (4)(B) of subsection (a), or subsection (b), upon a
        contractor's compliance with and discharge of the obligation of
        repayment of the construction costs as provided in paragraphs
        (3)(A) and (4)(A) of subsection (a), the Secretary shall waive the
        pricing provisions of section 3405(d) of the Reclamation Projects
        Authorization and Adjustment Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-575) for
        such contractor, provided that such contractor shall continue to
        pay applicable operation and maintenance costs and other charges
        applicable to such repayment contracts pursuant to the then-current
        rate-setting policy and applicable law.
            (3) Provisions of the Settlement applying to Friant Division,
        Hidden Unit, and Buchanan Unit long-term water service contracts
        shall also apply to contracts executed pursuant to this section.
        (d) Reduction of Charge for Those Contracts Converted Pursuant to
    Subsection (a)(1).--
            (1) At the time all payments by the contractor required by
        subsection (a)(3)(A) have been completed, the Secretary shall
        reduce the charge mandated in section 10007(1) of this part, from
        2020 through 2039, to offset the financing costs as defined in
        section 10010(d)(3). The reduction shall be calculated at the time
        all payments by the contractor required by subsection (a)(3)(A)
        have been completed. The calculation shall remain fixed from 2020
        through 2039 and shall be based upon anticipated average annual
        water deliveries, as mutually agreed upon by the Secretary and the
        contractor, for the period from 2020 through 2039, and the amounts
        of such reductions shall be discounted using the Treasury Rate;
        provided, that such charge shall not be reduced to less than $4.00
        per acre foot of project water delivered; provided further, that
        such reduction shall be implemented annually unless the Secretary
        determines, based on the availability of other monies, that the
        charges mandated in section 10007(1) are otherwise needed to cover
        ongoing federal costs of the Settlement, including any federal
        operation and maintenance costs of facilities that the Secretary
        determines are needed to implement the Settlement. If the Secretary
        determines that such charges are necessary to cover such ongoing
        federal costs, the Secretary shall, instead of making the reduction
        in such charges, reduce the contractor's operation and maintenance
        obligation by an equivalent amount, and such amount shall not be
        recovered by the United States from any Central Valley Project
        contractor, provided nothing herein shall affect the obligation of
        the contractor to make payments pursuant to a transfer agreement
        with a non-federal operating entity.
            (2) If the calculated reduction in paragraph (1), taking into
        consideration the minimum amount required, does not result in the
        contractor offsetting its financing costs, the Secretary is
        authorized and directed to reduce, after October 1, 2019, any
        outstanding or future obligations of the contractor to the Bureau
        of Reclamation, other than the charge assessed and collected under
        section 3407(d) of Public law 102-575, by the amount of such
        deficiency, with such amount indexed to 2020 using the Treasury
        Rate and such amount shall not be recovered by the United States
        from any Central Valley Project contractor, provided nothing herein
        shall affect the obligation of the contractor to make payments
        pursuant to a transfer agreement with a non-Federal operating
        entity.
            (3) Financing costs, for the purposes of this subsection, shall
        be computed as the difference of the net present value of the
        construction cost identified in subsection (a)(3)(A) using the full
        Treasury Rate as compared to using one half of the Treasury Rate
        and applying those rates against a calculated average annual
        capital repayment through 2030.
            (4) Effective in 2040, the charge shall revert to the amount
        called for in section 10007(1) of this part.
            (5) For purposes of this section, ``Treasury Rate'' shall be
        defined as the 20 year Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) rate
        published by the United States Department of the Treasury as of
        October 1, 2010.
        (e) Satisfaction of Certain Provisions.--
            (1) In general.--Upon the first release of Interim Flows or
        Restoration Flows, pursuant to paragraphs 13 or 15 of the
        Settlement, any short- or long-term agreement, to which 1 or more
        long-term Friant Division, Hidden Unit, or Buchanan Unit contractor
        that converts its contract pursuant to subsection (a) is a party,
        providing for the transfer or exchange of water not released as
        Interim Flows or Restoration Flows shall be deemed to satisfy the
        provisions of subsection 3405(a)(1)(A) and (I) of the Reclamation
        Projects Authorization and Adjustment Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-
        575) without the further concurrence of the Secretary as to
        compliance with said subsections if the contractor provides, not
        later than 90 days before commencement of any such transfer or
        exchange for a period in excess of 1 year, and not later than 30
        days before commencement of any proposed transfer or exchange with
        duration of less than 1 year, written notice to the Secretary
        stating how the proposed transfer or exchange is intended to
        reduce, avoid, or mitigate impacts to water deliveries caused by
        the Interim Flows or Restoration Flows or is intended to otherwise
        facilitate the Water Management Goal, as described in the
        Settlement. The Secretary shall promptly make such notice publicly
        available.
            (2) Determination of reductions to water deliveries.--Water
        transferred or exchanged under an agreement that meets the terms of
        this subsection shall not be counted as a replacement or an offset
        for purposes of determining reductions to water deliveries to any
        Friant Division long-term contractor except as provided in
        paragraph 16(b) of the Settlement. The Secretary shall, at least
        annually, make publicly available a compilation of the number of
        transfer or exchange agreements exercising the provisions of this
        subsection to reduce, avoid, or mitigate impacts to water
        deliveries caused by the Interim Flows or Restoration Flows or to
        facilitate the Water Management Goal, as well as the volume of
        water transferred or exchanged under such agreements.
            (3) State law.--Nothing in this subsection alters State law or
        permit conditions, including any applicable geographical
        restrictions on the place of use of water transferred or exchanged
        pursuant to this subsection.
        (f) Certain Repayment Obligations Not Altered.--Implementation of
    the provisions of this section shall not alter the repayment obligation
    of any other long-term water service or repayment contractor receiving
    water from the Central Valley Project, or shift any costs that would
    otherwise have been properly assignable to the Friant contractors
    absent this section, including operations and maintenance costs,
    construction costs, or other capitalized costs incurred after the date
    of enactment of this Act, to other such contractors.
        (g) Statutory Interpretation.--Nothing in this part shall be
    construed to affect the right of any Friant Division, Hidden Unit, or
    Buchanan Unit long-term contractor to use a particular type of
    financing to make the payments required in paragraph (3)(A) or (4)(A)
    of subsection (a).
    SEC. 10011. CALIFORNIA CENTRAL VALLEY SPRING RUN CHINOOK SALMON.
        (a) Finding.--Congress finds that the implementation of the
    Settlement to resolve 18 years of contentious litigation regarding
    restoration of the San Joaquin River and the reintroduction of the
    California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon is a unique and
    unprecedented circumstance that requires clear expressions of
    Congressional intent regarding how the provisions of the Endangered
    Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) are utilized to achieve
    the goals of restoration of the San Joaquin River and the successful
    reintroduction of California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon.
        (b) Reintroduction in the San Joaquin River.--California Central
    Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon shall be reintroduced in the San
    Joaquin River below Friant Dam pursuant to section 10(j) of the
    Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1539(j)) and the Settlement,
    provided that the Secretary of Commerce finds that a permit for the
    reintroduction of California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon
    may be issued pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species
    Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1539(a)(1)(A)).
        (c) Final Rule.--
            (1) Definition of third party.--For the purpose of this
        subsection, the term ``third party'' means persons or entities
        diverting or receiving water pursuant to applicable State and
        Federal laws and shall include Central Valley Project contractors
        outside of the Friant Division of the Central Valley Project and
        the State Water Project.
            (2) Issuance.--The Secretary of Commerce shall issue a final
        rule pursuant to section 4(d) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973
        (16 U.S.C. 1533(d)) governing the incidental take of reintroduced
        California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon prior to the
        reintroduction.
            (3) Required components.--The rule issued under paragraph (2)
        shall provide that the reintroduction will not impose more than de
        minimus: water supply reductions, additional storage releases, or
        bypass flows on unwilling third parties due to such reintroduction.
            (4) Applicable law.--Nothing in this section--
                (A) diminishes the statutory or regulatory protections
            provided in the Endangered Species Act of 1973 for any species
            listed pursuant to section 4 of the Endangered Species Act of
            1973 (16 U.S.C. 1533) other than the reintroduced population of
            California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon, including
            protections pursuant to existing biological opinions or new
            biological opinions issued by the Secretary or Secretary of
            Commerce; or
                (B) precludes the Secretary or Secretary of Commerce from
            imposing protections under the Endangered Species Act of 1973
            (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) for other species listed pursuant to
            section 4 of that Act (16 U.S.C. 1533) because those
            protections provide incidental benefits to such reintroduced
            California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon.
        (d) Report.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than December 31, 2024, the
        Secretary of Commerce shall report to Congress on the progress made
        on the reintroduction set forth in this section and the Secretary's
        plans for future implementation of this section.
            (2) Inclusions.--The report under paragraph (1) shall include--
                (A) an assessment of the major challenges, if any, to
            successful reintroduction;
                (B) an evaluation of the effect, if any, of the
            reintroduction on the existing population of California Central
            Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon existing on the Sacramento
            River or its tributaries; and
                (C) an assessment regarding the future of the
            reintroduction.
        (e) FERC Projects.--
            (1) In general.--With regard to California Central Valley
        Spring Run Chinook salmon reintroduced pursuant to the Settlement,
        the Secretary of Commerce shall exercise its authority under
        section 18 of the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 811) by reserving
        its right to file prescriptions in proceedings for projects
        licensed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on the
        Calaveras, Stanislaus, Tuolumne, Merced, and San Joaquin rivers and
        otherwise consistent with subsection (c) until after the expiration
        of the term of the Settlement, December 31, 2025, or the expiration
        of the designation made pursuant to subsection (b), whichever ends
        first.
            (2) Effect of subsection.--Nothing in this subsection shall
        preclude the Secretary of Commerce from imposing prescriptions
        pursuant to section 18 of the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 811)
        solely for other anadromous fish species because those
        prescriptions provide incidental benefits to such reintroduced
        California Central Valley Spring Run Chinook salmon.
        (f) Effect of Section.--Nothing in this section is intended or
    shall be construed--
            (1) to modify the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C.
        1531 et seq.) or the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.); or
            (2) to establish a precedent with respect to any other
        application of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531
        et seq.) or the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.).

                for use within the State of Arizona shall not be credited
                as water reaching Lee Ferry pursuant to Article III(c) and
                III(d) of the Colorado River Compact; or
                    (ii) subject to subparagraph (B), a part of, and
                charged against, the consumptive use apportionment made to
                the Lower Basin by Article III(a) of the Colorado River
                Compact, in which case it shall--

                        (I) be a part of the Colorado River water that is
                    apportioned to the State of Arizona in Article II(B) of
                    the Consolidated Decree of the Supreme Court of the
                    United States in Arizona v. California (547 U.S. 150)
                    (as may be amended or supplemented);
                        (II) be credited as water reaching Lee Ferry
                    pursuant to Article III(c) and III(d) of the Colorado
                    River Compact; and
                        (III) be accounted as the water identified in
                    section 104(a)(1)(B)(ii) of the Arizona Water
                    Settlements Act, (118 Stat. 3478).

                (B) Limitation.--Notwithstanding subparagraph (A)(ii), no
            water diverted by the Project shall be accounted for pursuant
            to subparagraph (A)(ii) until such time that--
                    (i) the Secretary has developed and, as necessary and
                appropriate, modified, in consultation with the Upper
                Colorado River Commission and the Governors'
                Representatives on Colorado River Operations from each
                State signatory to the Colorado River Compact, all
                operational and decisional criteria, policies, contracts,
                guidelines or other documents that control the operations
                of the Colorado River System reservoirs and diversion
                works, so as to adjust, account for, and offset the
                diversion of water apportioned to the State of Arizona,
                pursuant to the Boulder Canyon Project Act (43 U.S.C. 617
                et seq.), from a point of diversion on the San Juan River
                in New Mexico; provided that all such modifications shall
                be consistent with the provisions of this Section, and the
                modifications made pursuant to this clause shall be
                applicable only for the duration of any such diversions
                pursuant to section 10603(c)(2)(A)(ii); and
                    (ii) Article II(B) of the Decree of the Supreme Court
                of the United States in Arizona v. California (547 U.S. 150
                as may be amended or supplemented) is administered so that
                diversions from the main stream for the Central Arizona
                Project, as served under existing contracts with the United
                States by diversion works heretofore constructed, shall be
                limited and reduced to offset any diversions made pursuant
                to section 10603(c)(2)(A)(ii) of this Act. This clause
                shall not affect, in any manner, the amount of water
                apportioned to Arizona pursuant to the Boulder Canyon
                Project Act (43 U.S.C. 617 et seq.), or amend any
                provisions of said decree or the Colorado River Basin
                Project Act (43 U.S.C. 1501 et. seq.).
            (3) Upper basin protections.--
                (A) Consultations.--Henceforth, in any consultation
            pursuant to 16 U.S.C. 1536(a) with respect to water development
            in the San Juan River Basin, the Secretary shall confer with
            the States of Colorado and New Mexico, consistent with the
            provisions of section 5 of the ``Principles for Conducting
            Endangered Species Act Section 7 Consultations on Water
            Development and Water Management Activities Affecting
            Endangered Fish Species in the San Juan River Basin'' as
            adopted by the Coordination Committee, San Juan River Basin
            Recovery Implementation Program, on June 19, 2001, and as may
            be amended or modified.
                (B) Preservation of existing rights.--Rights to the
            consumptive use of water available to the Upper Basin from the
            Colorado River System under the Colorado River Compact and the
            Compact shall not be reduced or prejudiced by any use of water
            pursuant to subsection 10603(c). Nothing in this Act shall be
            construed so as to impair, conflict with, or otherwise change
            the duties and powers of the Upper Colorado River Commission.
        (d) Forbearance.--
            (1) In general.--Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), during any
        year in which a shortage to the normal diversion requirement for
        any use relating to the Project within the State of Arizona occurs
        (as determined under section 11 of Public Law 87-483 (76 Stat.
        99)), the Nation may temporarily forbear the delivery of the water
        supply of the Navajo Reservoir for uses in the State of New Mexico
        under the apportionments of water to the Navajo Indian Irrigation
        Project and the normal diversion requirements of the Project to
        allow an equivalent quantity of water to be delivered from the
        Navajo Reservoir water supply for municipal and domestic uses of
        the Nation in the State of Arizona under the Project.
            (2) Limitation of forbearance.--The Nation may forebear the
        delivery of water under paragraph (1) of a quantity not exceeding
        the quantity of the shortage to the normal diversion requirement
        for any use relating to the Project within the State of Arizona.
            (3) Effect.--The forbearance of the delivery of water under
        paragraph (1) shall be subject to the requirements in subsection
        (c).
        (e) Effect.--Nothing in this subtitle--
            (1) authorizes the marketing, leasing, or transfer of the water
        supplies made available to the Nation under the Contract to non-
        Navajo water users in States other than the State of New Mexico; or
            (2) authorizes the forbearance of water uses in the State of
        New Mexico to allow uses of water in other States other than as
        authorized under subsection (d).
        (f) Colorado River Compacts.--Notwithstanding any other provision
    of law--
            (1) water may be diverted by the Project from the San Juan
        River in the State of New Mexico for use within New Mexico in the
        lower basin, as that term is used in the Colorado River Compact;
            (2) any water diverted under paragraph (1) shall be a part of,
        and charged against, the consumptive use apportionment made to the
        State of New Mexico by Article III(a) of the Compact and to the
        upper basin by Article III(a) of the Colorado River Compact; and
            (3) any water so diverted by the Project into the lower basin
        within the State of New Mexico shall not be credited as water
        reaching Lee Ferry pursuant to Articles III(c) and III(d) of the
        Colorado River Compact.
        (g) Payment of Operation, Maintenance, and Replacement Costs.--
            (1) In general.--The Secretary is authorized to pay the
        operation, maintenance, and replacement costs of the Project
        allocable to the Project Participants under section 10604 until the
        date on which the Secretary declares any section of the Project to
        be substantially complete and delivery of water generated by, and
        through, that section of the Project can be made to a Project
        participant.
            (2) Project participant payments.--Beginning on the date
        described in paragraph (1), each Project Participant shall pay all
        allocated operation, maintenance, and replacement costs for that
        substantially completed section of the Project, in accordance with
        contracts entered into pursuant to section 10604, except as
        provided in section 10604(f).
        (h) No Precedent.--Nothing in this Act shall be construed as
    authorizing or establishing a precedent for any type of transfer of
    Colorado River System water between the Upper Basin and Lower Basin.
    Nor shall anything in this Act be construed as expanding the
    Secretary's authority in the Upper Basin.
        (i) Unique Situation.--Diversions by the Project consistent with
    this section address critical tribal and non-Indian water supply needs
    under unique circumstances, which include, among other things--
            (1) the intent to benefit an American Indian tribe;
            (2) the Navajo Nation's location in both the Upper and Lower
        Basin;
            (3) the intent to address critical Indian water needs in the
        State of Arizona and Indian and non-Indian water needs in the State
        of New Mexico,
            (4) the location of the Navajo Nation's capital city of Window
        Rock in the State of Arizona in close proximity to the border of
        the State of New Mexico and the pipeline route for the Project;
            (5) the lack of other reasonable options available for
        developing a firm, sustainable supply of municipal water for the
        Navajo Nation at Window Rock in the State of Arizona; and
            (6) the limited volume of water to be diverted by the Project
        to supply municipal uses in the Window Rock area in the State of
        Arizona.
        (j) Consensus.--Congress notes the consensus of the Governors'
    Representatives on Colorado River Operations of the States that are
    signatory to the Colorado River Compact regarding the diversions
    authorized for the Project under this section.
        (k) Efficient Use.--The diversions and uses authorized for the
    Project under this Section represent unique and efficient uses of
    Colorado River apportionments in a manner that Congress has determined
    would be consistent with the obligations of the United States to the
    Navajo Nation.

    Subtitle C--Shoshone-Paiute Tribes of the Duck Valley Reservation Water
                               Rights Settlement

    SEC. 10801. FINDINGS.
        Congress finds that--
            (1) it is the policy of the United States, in accordance with
        the trust responsibility of the United States to Indian tribes, to
        promote Indian self-determination and economic self-sufficiency and
        to settle Indian water rights claims without lengthy and costly
        litigation, if practicable;
            (2) quantifying rights to water and development of facilities
        needed to use tribal water supplies is essential to the development
        of viable Indian reservation economies and the establishment of a
        permanent reservation homeland;
            (3) uncertainty concerning the extent of the Shoshone-Paiute
        Tribes' water rights has resulted in limited access to water and
        inadequate financial resources necessary to achieve self-
        determination and self-sufficiency;
            (4) in 2006, the Tribes, the State of Idaho, the affected
        individual water users, and the United States resolved all tribal
        claims to water rights in the Snake River Basin Adjudication
        through a consent decree entered by the District Court of the Fifth
        Judicial District of the State of Idaho, requiring no further
        Federal action to quantify the Tribes' water rights in the State of
        Idaho;
            (5) as of the date of enactment of this Act, proceedings to
        determine the extent and nature of the water rights of the Tribes
        in the East Fork of the Owyhee River in Nevada are pending before
        the Nevada State Engineer;
            (6) final resolution of the Tribes' water claims in the East
        Fork of the Owyhee River adjudication will--
                (A) take many years;
                (B) entail great expense;
                (C) continue to limit the access of the Tribes to water,
            with economic and social consequences;
                (D) prolong uncertainty relating to the availability of
            water supplies; and
                (E) seriously impair long-term economic planning and
            development for all parties to the litigation;
            (7) after many years of negotiation, the Tribes, the State, and
        the upstream water users have entered into a settlement agreement
        to resolve permanently all water rights of the Tribes in the State;
        and
            (8) the Tribes also seek to resolve certain water-related
        claims for damages against the United States.

    purposes of protecting important coastal and estuarine areas that have
    significant conservation, recreation, ecological, historical, or
    aesthetic values, or that are threatened by conversion from their
    natural, undeveloped, or recreational state to other uses or could be
    managed or restored to effectively conserve, enhance, or restore
    ecological function. The program shall be administered by the National
    Ocean Service of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
    through the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management.
        ``(b) Property Acquisition Grants.--The Secretary shall make grants
    under the program to coastal states with approved coastal zone

        local governmental entities and other interested stakeholders,
        shall identify priority conservation needs within the State, the
        values to be protected by inclusion of lands in the program, and
        the threats to those values that should be avoided.
            ``(3) Each participating coastal state shall to the extent
        practicable ensure that the acquisition of property or easements
        shall complement working waterfront needs.

        by inclusion of the lands in the program, management activities
        that are planned and the manner in which they may affect the values

        to administration and management of the land.
            ``(5) Awards shall be based on demonstrated need for protection
        and ability to successfully leverage funds among participating
        entities, including Federal programs, regional organizations, State
        and other governmental units, landowners, corporations, or private
        organizations.

        or territory's approved coastal zone plan, program, and policies
        prior to submittal to the Secretary.

        subsection (a) that can be effectively managed and protected and
        that have significant ecological value.

        (A), priority shall be given to lands that--
                ``(i) are under an imminent threat of conversion to a use

        Reserves may allocate grants to local governments or agencies
        eligible for assistance under section 306A(e).

            ``(1) A grant awarded under this section may be used to
        purchase land or an interest in land, including an easement, only
        from a willing seller. Any such purchase shall not be the result of
        a forced taking under this section. Nothing in this section
        requires a private property owner to participate in the program
        under this section.
            ``(2) Any interest in land, including any easement, acquired
        with a grant under this section shall not be considered to create
        any new liability, or have any effect on liability under any other
        law, of any private property owner with respect to any person
        injured on the private property.
            ``(3) Nothing in this section requires a private property owner
        to provide access (including Federal, State, or local government
        access) to or use of private property unless such property or an
        interest in such property (including a conservation easement) has
        been purchased with funds made available under this section.
        ``(e) Recognition of Authority to Control Land Use.--Nothing in
    this title modifies the authority of Federal, State, or local
    governments to regulate land use.
        ``(f) Matching Requirements.--
            ``(1) In general.--The Secretary may not make a grant under the
        program unless the Federal funds are matched by non-Federal funds
        in accordance with this subsection.
            ``(2) Cost share requirement.--
                ``(A) In general.--Grant funds under the program shall
            require a 100 percent match from other non-Federal sources.
                ``(B) Waiver of requirement.--The Secretary may grant a
            waiver of subparagraph (A) for underserved communities,
            communities that have an inability to draw on other sources of
            funding because of the small population or low income of the
            community, or for other reasons the Secretary deems appropriate
            and consistent with the purposes of the program.
            ``(3) Other federal funds.--Where financial assistance awarded
        under this section represents only a portion of the total cost of a
        project, funding from other Federal sources may be applied to the
        cost of the project. Each portion shall be subject to match
        requirements under the applicable provision of law.
            ``(4) Source of matching cost share.--For purposes of paragraph
        (2)(A), the non-Federal cost share for a project may be determined
        by taking into account the following:
                ``(A) The value of land or a conservation easement may be
            used by a project applicant as non-Federal match, if the
            Secretary determines that--
                    ``(i) the land meets the criteria set forth in section
                2(b) and is acquired in the period beginning 3 years before
                the date of the submission of the grant application and
                ending 3 years after the date of the award of the grant;
                    ``(ii) the value of the land or easement is held by a
                non-governmental organization included in the grant
                application in perpetuity for conservation purposes of the
                program; and
                    ``(iii) the land or easement is connected either
                physically or through a conservation planning process to
                the land or easement that would be acquired.

            easement at the time of the grant closing will be considered
            and applied as the non-Federal cost share.
                ``(C) Costs associated with land acquisition, land
            management planning, remediation, restoration, and enhancement
            may be used as non- Federal match if the activities are
            identified in the plan and expenses are incurred within the
            period of the grant award, or, for lands described in (A),
            within the same time limits described therein. These costs may
            include either cash or in-kind contributions.
        ``(g) Reservation of Funds for National Estuarine Research Reserve
    Sites.--No less than 15 percent of funds made available under this
    section shall be available for acquisitions benefitting National
    Estuarine Research Reserves.

    thereafter.

    is acquired in whole or in part with funds made available through a
    grant under this section, the grant recipient shall provide--

            recipient or another appropriate public agency designated by

            consistent with the purposes for which the land entered into
            the program and shall not convert such property to other uses;
            and
                ``(C) if the property or interest in land is sold,
            exchanged, or divested, funds equal to the current value will

        in land) will be acquired from a willing seller.
        ``(j) Requirement for Property Used for Non-Federal Match.--If the
    grant recipient elects to use any land or interest in land held by a
    non-governmental organization as a non-Federal match under subsection
