SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Significant quantities of rare earths are used in the 
        production of clean energy technologies, including advanced 
        automotive propulsion batteries, electric motors, high-
        efficiency light bulbs, solar panels, and wind turbines. These 
        technologies are used to advance the United States energy 
        policy of reducing dependence on foreign oil and decreasing 
        greenhouse gas emissions through expansion of cleaner sources 
        of energy.
            (2) Many modern defense technologies such as radar and 
        sonar systems, precision-guided weapons, cruise missiles, and 
        lasers cannot be built, as designed and specified, without the 
        use of rare earths and materials produced from them.
            (3) Rare earths also provide core functionality to a 
        variety of high technology applications in computing, pollution 
        abatement, power generation, water treatment, oil refining, 
        metal alloying, communications, health care, agriculture, and 
        other sectors.
            (4) Though at least 40 percent of the world's rare earth 
        reserves are located within the United States and its ally 
        nations, our country now depends upon imports for nearly 100 
        percent of its rare earth needs.
            (5) Furthermore, the United States has limited rare earth 
        production, remains nearly entirely dependent on overseas 
        refineries for further elemental and alloy processing, and does 
        not currently maintain a ``strategic reserve'' of rare earth 
        compounds, metals, or alloys.
            (6) By way of contrast, more than 97 percent of all rare 
        earths for world consumption is produced in China. The 
        ability--and willingness--of China to export these rare earths 
        is eroding due to its growing domestic demand, its enforcement 
        of environmental law on current producers, and its mandate to 
        consolidate the industry by decreasing its number of mining 
        permits. In fact, China has taken several steps recently that 
        have caused significant market perturbations.
            (7) For example, the Chinese Ministry of Industry and 
        Information Technology draft rare earths plan for 2009 to 2015 
        proposed an immediate ban on the export of dysprosium, terbium, 
        thulium, lutetium, and yttrium, the so-called ``heavy'' rare 
        earths, and a restriction on the exports of all other, light, 
        rare earth metals to a level well below that sufficient to 
        satisfy the 2008 demand of Japan alone for such metals.
            (8) More recently, in July 2010, China decreased their 
        export quota allocations on rare earth oxides and metals by 
        over 70 percent, causing price increases of threefold to 
        eightfold and causing supply shortages of some materials.
            (9) In September 2010, the Chinese Government reportedly 
        restricted export of all rare earth oxide and metal to Japan 
        over a diplomatic incident.
            (10) Most recently, in October 2010, the Chinese Government 
        reportedly restricted export of all rare earth oxide and metal 
        to the United States and Europe, essentially cutting off the 
        global community from supplies of rare earth material.
            (11) Given that Chinese dominance of the rare earths market 
        has adversely impacted the supply stability and endangers the 
        United States and its allies' assured access to key materials, 
        rare earths should qualify as materials either strategic or 
        critical to national security. As such, there is an urgent need 
        to identify the current global market situation regarding rare 
        earth materials, the strategic value placed on them by foreign 
        nations including China, and the Department of Defense's and 
        domestic manufacturing industry's supply-chain vulnerability 
        related to rare earths and end items containing rare earths 
        such as neodymium iron boron and other specialty magnets, and 
        rare earth ``doped'' lasers.
            (12) The United States Government should facilitate the 
        reintroduction of a globally competitive non-Chinese rare earth 
        industry with multiple sources of mining, processing, alloying, 
        and manufacturing.
            (13) This self-sufficiency requires an uninterrupted supply 
        of strategic materials critical to national security and 
        innovative commercial product development, including rare 
        earths, to support the clean energy and defense supply chains.
            (14) The United States currently cannot reclaim valuable 
        rare earths and permanent magnets and such capability should be 
        explored using appropriate research and development projects.

SEC. 3. ACTIONS TO PROMOTE RARE EARTH DEVELOPMENT.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the United 
States should take any and all actions necessary to ensure the 
reintroduction of a competitive domestic and ally nation rare earth 
supply chain, to include the reintroduction of the capacity to conduct 
mining, refining/processing, alloying and manufacturing operations 
using domestic and ally nation suppliers to provide a secure source of 
rare earth materials as a vital component of national security and 
economic policy.
    (b) Policy.--Each Federal agency shall take appropriate actions, to 
the extent consistent with applicable law, to expedite permitting and 
projects that will increase exploration for, and development of, 
domestic rare earths.
    (c) Rare Earth Policy Task Force.--

        investment in, exploration for, and development of domestic 
        rare earths pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management 
        Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), the Act of June 4, 1897 
        (commonly known as the ``Organic Act of 1897'' (16 U.S.C. 473-
        482, 551), the National Forest Management Act of 1976 (16 
        U.S.C. 1600 et seq.), and any other applicable statutory 
        authorities related to domestic mining operations;
            (2) assist Federal agencies in reviewing laws (including 
        regulations) and policies that discourage investment in, 
        exploration for, and development of domestic rare earths 
        pursuant to Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, the 
        Act of June 4, 1897, the National Forest Management Act of 
        1976, and any other applicable statutory authorities related to 
        domestic mining operations; and
            (3) take such other actions to otherwise increase 
        investment in, exploration for, and development of domestic 
        rare earths as the Task Force considers appropriate.

submit to the President, the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources 
of the Senate, the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House of 
Representatives, and the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of 
Representatives a report setting forth the following:
            (1) A description of the results of the coordinated and 
        expedited review of permits or other actions to promote 
        investment in, exploration for, and development of domestic 
        rare earths, and an identification of the procedures and 
        actions that have proven to be the most useful and appropriate 
        in coordinating and expediting the review of projects that will 
        increase investment in, exploration for, and development of 
        domestic rare earths.
            (2) An identification of the substantive and procedural 
        requirements of Federal, State, tribal, and local laws 
        (including regulations) and Executive orders that are

                    (A) is intended to improve the internal management 
                of the Federal Government; and
                    (B) does not create any right or benefit, 
                substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or equity 
                by a party against the United States (including an 
                agency, instrumentality, officer, or employee of the 
                United States) or any other person.

SEC. 4. REQUIREMENT TO ESTABLISH EXECUTIVE AGENTS FOR RARE EARTH 
              RELATED MATTERS.

    No later than 30 days after the enactment of this Act the 
Secretaries of Commerce, Defense, Energy, the Interior, and State shall 
each appoint an Executive Agent, at the Assistant Secretary level of 
each affected agency, to serve as a representative on an interagency 
working group for the purposes of reestablishing a competitive domestic 
rare earth supply chain.

relating to section 1705 the following new item:

``Sec. 1706. Temporary program for rare earth materials 
                            revitalization.''.

SEC. 6. ESTABLISHMENT OF A RARE EARTH ALLOY AND MAGNET PROGRAM.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) While the capability to produce rare earth materials, 
        including neodymium iron boron magnets (in this subsection 
        referred to as ``neo magnets''), is the backbone of the defense 
        supply chain, the United States lacks sufficient capability to 
        produce such materials.
            (2) Sintered neo magnets are irreplaceable components of 
        critical military equipment, ranging from precision guided 
        munitions to stealth technology to electric drive ship 
        programs, and they allow systems within aircraft, tanks and 
        other vehicles, missile systems, and command and control 
        centers to withstand vibration, impact, and G-forces.
            (3) Yet despite the essential nature of these magnets to 
        United States national security, the United States is 
        completely reliant on unreliable foreign sources that are 
        subject to interruption and disruption, based on actions or 
        events outside the control of the Federal Government.
            (4) In addition, industry officials have noted that it will 
        take 3 to 5 years to develop a domestic neo magnet 
        manufacturing capability for the commercial market.
            (5) In light of these facts, there is a clear national 
        security imperative to lay the groundwork immediately for 
        developing a supply chain in the United States that allows for 
        ready access to neodymium iron boron magnet alloys, dysprosium 
        iron alloys, and sintered neodymium iron boron magnets.
    (b) Requirement To Establish an Inventory.--
            (1) Establishment.--In accordance with section 15 of the 
        Strategic and Critical Materials Stock Piling Act (50 U.S.C. 
        98h-6), using funds from the sale of excess materials in the 
        National Defense Stockpile, the President, acting through the 
        Secretary of Defense, shall establish a neodymium iron boron 
        magnet alloy and dysprosium iron alloy inventory to be managed 
        by the Administrator of the Defense Logistics Agency Strategic 
        Materials.
            (2) Sustaining the inventory.--In carrying out paragraph 
        (1), not later than one year after the date of the enactment of 
        this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall--
                    (A) commence creating an inventory of domestic or 
                ally nation neodymium iron boron magnet alloys and 
                dysprosium iron alloys; and
                    (B) make such inventory accessible, including by 
                purchase, to producers of domestic neodymium iron boron 
                magnets, the Defense Logistics Agency of the Department 
                of Defense, or other entities requiring such material 
                to support national defense requirements.
            (3) Amount of materials.--
                    (A) Not later than 180 days after the date of the 
                enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall 
                determine the amount of neodymium iron boron magnet 
                alloys and dysprosium iron alloys required for the 
                inventory established under paragraph (1).
                    (B) In making the determination regarding neodymium 
                iron boron magnet alloys and dysprosium iron alloys 
                under subparagraph (A), the Secretary of Defense shall 
                determine--
                            (i) the aggregate demand for such magnets 
                        for national defense purposes; and
                            (ii) domestic and ally nation sources 
                        considered by the Secretary to be reliable, 
                        including an analysis of the viability of such 
                        sources for the near-term production of 
                        military-specific sintered neodymium iron boron 
                        magnet alloys and magnets.
                    (C) If the Secretary of Defense cannot determine 
                the aggregate demand for neodymium iron boron magnet 
                alloys and dysprosium iron alloys under subparagraph 
                (B)(i), the Secretary shall establish an inventory of 
                not less than 200 metric tons of neodymium iron boron 
                magnet alloy and 50 metric tons of dysprosium iron 
                alloy.
    (c) Requirement To Encourage a Domestic Manufacturing Capability.--
            (1) Encouragement.--In accordance with section 15 of the 
        Strategic and Critical Materials Stock Piling Act (50 U.S.C. 
        98h-6), not later than one year after the date of the enactment 
        of this Act, the President, acting through the Secretary of 
        Defense, shall encourage the development of a domestic 
        neodymium iron boron magnet manufacturing capability by seeking 
        to enter into long-term supply contracts for the delivery of 
        necessary grades of domestic neodymium iron boron magnets to 
        meet the demand of the Department of Defense.
            (2) Requirements.--In carrying out paragraph (1), the 
        Secretary of Defense shall--
                    (A) identify one or more reliable producers, 
                potential producers, or past producers of sintered 
                neodymium iron boron magnets and seek to enter into a 
                long-term supply contract with such producer of such 
                magnets to support the national defense needs of the 
                United States;
                    (B) ensure that a sintered neodymium iron boron 
                magnet producer who is awarded any such long-term 
                contract establishes manufacturing capability for only 
                military-use magnets for sale to the National Defense 
                Stockpile;
                    (C) include all appropriate language in any such 
                contract to indemnify the producers regarding 
                intellectual property issues; and
                    (D) require the Administrator of the Defense 
                Logistics Agency Strategic Materials to make available 
                such magnets for purchase by Federal Government
