Wildland fire preparedness.--This activity funds the non-emergency
and predictable aspects of the Department's wildland fire program.
Preparedness includes readiness, operational planning, oversight,
procurement, training, supervision, and deployment of wildland fire
suppression personnel and equipment prior to wildland fire occurrence.
It also includes activities related to program monitoring and
evaluation, integration of fire into land-use planning, and fire
research and fire science program activities.

Wildland fire operations.--This activity funds the emergency and
unpredictable aspects of the Department's wildland fire operations
program. Wildland fire operations include emergency suppression,
emergency rehabilitation, and hazardous fuels reduction. Suppression
operations include the total spectrum of management actions taken on
wildland fires in a safe, cost-effective manner, considering public
benefits and values to be protected and consistent with resource
objectives and land management plans. Suppression operations also
include severity funding used to improve initial attack preparedness
response capabilities when abnormal fire conditions occur resulting in
fire seasons starting earlier than normal, lasting longer than normal,
or exceeding average fire danger rating for prolonged periods. Emergency
rehabilitation of wildland fire areas is carried out to prevent land
degradation and resource damages and to stabilize soils, structures, or
other conditions or damage caused by wildland fires. Hazardous fuels
reduction operations include all operational aspects of applying
prescribed fire to reduce fuel loadings and for ecosystem diversity. It
also includes mechanical treatments where the application of fire is not
feasible. Funding for this activity is based on the historical 10-year
average of suppression and rehabilitation expenditures adjusted for
inflation, and a target level for hazardous fuels reduction operations.

Permanent operating funds accounts include:

Forest ecosystems health and recovery.--Funds in this account are
derived from revenue generated from the Federal share of receipts from
the sale of salvage timber from the Oregon and California grant lands,
public domain lands, and Coos Bay Wagon Road lands. This account was
established to allow the Bureau of Land Management to more efficiently
and effectively address forest health problems.

Timber Sale Pipeline Restoration Fund.--This fund provides for the
deposit and use of fees collected by the BLM for sales of non-salvage
timber pursuant to the timber salvage provisions of Public Law 104-19
and Public Law 105-83. Of the total deposited into this account, 75
percent is to be used for preparation of timber sales to fill the timber
pipeline on lands administered by the BLM, and 25 percent is to be
expended on the backlog of recreation projects on BLM lands.

Recreation fees.--This account holds funds that enable the BLM to
retain and spend up to 15 percent of recreation receipts collected
during the current year to offset fee collection costs.

Expenses, road maintenance deposits.--Users of certain roads under
jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) make deposits for
maintenance purposes. Moneys collected are appropriated for necessary
road maintenance. Moneys collected on Oregon and California grant lands
are available only for those lands (43 U.S.C. 1762(c), 43 U.S.C.
1735(b)).

Recreational fee demonstration program.--Fees collected by the BLM
at recreation sites identified pursuant to provisions of the 1996
Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act are deposited to this
account. Of the total collected, 80 percent is permanently appropriated
for use at the sites where the fees were generated; the remaining 20
percent is available for the general BLM recreation program.

The Helium Act Amendments of 1960, Public Law 86-777 (50 U.S.C.
167), authorized activities necessary to provide sufficient helium to
meet the current and foreseeable future needs of essential government
activities.

The Helium Privatization Act of 1996, Public Law 104-273, provides
for the eventual privatization of the program and its functions. In FY
1999, the Helium program will consist of:

(a) continued storage and transmission of crude helium;

(b) complete disposal of helium refining facilities and other excess
property not needed for storage and transmission of crude helium;

The estimates assume that the program will continue to fund full
implementation of the Helium Privatization Act.

Alaska is paid 90 percent and other States 50 percent of the
receipts from bonuses, royalties, payor late payment interest, and
rentals of public lands within those States resulting from the leasing
and development of mineral resources under: the Mineral Leasing Act (30
U.S.C. 191); the Mineral Leasing Act for Acquired Lands (30 U.S.C. 351);
the Geothermal Steam Act of 1970 (30 U.S.C. 1001); and, from leases of
potash deposits (30 U.S.C. 285), on both public domain and certain
acquired lands.

The Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA) requires 50 percent of
the Federal Government's mineral leasing administrative program costs to
be recovered before disbursement to the United States Treasury and
States. The Act also requires that a State's share of program costs be
the lesser amount as determined under two different methods (revenue
versus cost-based) as is prescribed in the Act.

Environmental protection.--This activity funds those functions that
directly contribute to ensuring that the environment is protected during
surface coal mining operations. It also addresses those activities that
ensure that coal operators adequately reclaim the land after mining is
completed.

Under this activity, OSM provides regulatory grants to States to
operate enforcement programs under the terms of the Surface Mining
Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA). It also provides for the
operation of Federal and Indian land programs and the oversight of State
programs. This activity also supports State regulatory program
development and maintenance.

[[Page 507]]

Environmental Restoration.--This activity funds environmental
reclamation efforts through the collection of civil penalties for post-
SMCRA reclamation and funds from bond forfeitures. It also provides
funding for underground and coal outcrop fires.

Technology development and transfer.--This activity provides funding
to enhance the technical skills that States and Indian Tribes need to
operate their regulatory programs. It provides technical outreach to
States and Indian Tribes to solve problems related to the environmental
effects of coal mining. The Violator System is funded from this
activity.

Financial Management.--This activity provides the resources for the
managing, accounting, and processing of collections and for the pursuit
of delinquent civil penalties. This includes developing and maintaining
information management systems that support these functions and enhance
the agency's ability to deny new mining permits to applicants with
unabated State or Federal violations.

Executive direction and administration.--This activity provides
funding for executive direction, general administrative support, and the
acquisition of certain agency-wide common services, such as rent,
telephones, and postage.

The following are key performance measures for the Regulation and
technology account:

Environmental Restoration.--This activity funds those functions that
contribute to reclaiming lands affected by past coal mining practices.
Funds are used to restore land and water resources and the environment
that have been degraded by mining prior to the passage of the Surface
Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA).

This activity provides reclamation grants to qualified States. It
also provides for the Federal reclamation program, which includes the
Federally-administered emergency reclamation program, and for high
priority projects in States that do not have a reclamation program.

Funding within this account for the Clean Streams Initiative and
Western Mine Lands Partnership Initiative is proposed as part of the
Environmental Resources Fund for America. This proposal highlights the
Administration's priority to provide deficit neutral funding for
investments in many of our Nation's key environmental programs. A
discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund for America and two other
funds for research and transportation can be found in section II of the
Budget volume.

Technology development and transfer.--This activity provides funding
to enhance the technical skills that the States and Indian Tribes need
to operate their reclamation programs. OSM conducts technical studies on
mining and reclamation-related problems. This activity also provides
resources for the Small operators assistance program.

Financial Management.--This activity provides funds to identify,
notify, collect, and audit fees from coal operators for the Abandoned
Mine Reclamation Fund. OSM seeks to maximize voluntary compliance with
the SMCRA's reclamation fee provisions.

The following are the key performance measures for the Abandoned
Mine Reclamation Fund account:

This account funds the Federal share of ecosystem restoration
activities under the California Bay-Delta Environmental Enhancement and
Water Security Act, which are selected by a State and Federal
partnership (CALFED). Although this account is included within the
Bureau of Reclamation for budget presentation purposes, these funds are
to be transferred to the Federal agencies participating in CALFED,
consistent with plans approved by the Secretary of the Interior.

Funding for the California Bay-Delta Ecosystem Restoration account
is proposed as part of the Environmental Resources

[[Page 511]]

Fund for America. This proposal highlights the Administration's priority
to provide deficit neutral funding for investments in many of our
Nation's key environmental programs. A discussion of the Environmental
Resources Fund for America and two other funds for research and
transportation can be found in Section II of the Budget volume.

Ongoing construction costs of the Colorado River Storage project are
financed through appropriations transferred to this account. Revenues
from the operation of project facilities are available without further
appropriation for operation and maintenance expenses and for capital
repayment to the general fund. Moneys also are transferred from the
Lower Colorado River Basin Development Fund to reimburse this account,
until such reimbursement is accomplished, for expenses incurred for
purchased power to make up deficiencies in generation at Hoover Dam
during the period when Lake Powell was being filled.

The U.S. Geological Survey conducts research and provides scientific
data and information concerning natural hazards and environmental issues
as well as on the water, land, and mineral and biological resources of
the Nation. It works with other Federal agencies to determine national
priorities and to encourage increased data-production partnerships, data
sharing, and adherence to standards for production of geographic,
geologic, biologic and water data.

National mapping program.--The national mapping program collects,
integrates, and makes available, in printed and digital format,
cartographic and geographic base data, remotely sensed data, data made
available from classified sources, and multipurpose and special-purpose
maps. Research is conducted in the mapping sciences, geography, and
related disciplines in support of data production and applications.
Activities related to the National Spatial Data Infrastructure support
interagency and intergovernmental partnerships for establishing a
national geospatial data clearinghouse, developing data standards,
organizing regional coordination, and developing a data framework [data
set] for the Nation.

Geologic hazards, resources, and processes.--The national program of
onshore and offshore geologic research and investigations produces: (1)
information on geologic hazards, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and
landslides; (2) geologic information for use in the management of public
lands and in national policy determinations; (3) information on the
chemistry and physics of the Earth, its past climate, and the geologic
processes by which it was formed and is being modified; (4) geologic,
geophysical, and geochemical maps and analyses to address environmental,
resource, and hazards concerns; and (5) hazards, resource, and
environmental assessments as well as improved methods and
instrumentation for detecting and monitoring hazards, disseminating
hazards information, and conducting assessments.

Water resources investigations.--The national program of water
resources monitoring, investigations, and research has the objective of
appraising the Nation's water resources and ensuring that the
information necessary to develop and manage them efficiently and
effectively is available when needed. The program produces data,
analyses, and assessments to support Federal, State and local government
decisions on water planning, water management, water quality, energy
development, and enhancement of the quality of the environment.

Biological research.--The national program of biological research:
(1) conducts biological research and inventories; (2) provides
scientific information access for the management of biological
resources; and (3) predicts the consequences of environmental change and
the effects of alternative management actions on plants, animals, and
their habitats. The program conducts the high priority biological
research needed by the Department of the Interior's land management
bureaus and also operates the Cooperative Research Unit program which
provides research and information to resource managers, trains natural
resource professionals and accesses university and State scientist
expertise and facilities.

General administration.--General administrative expenses provide for
management, executive direction and coordination, and administrative and
information resources management services to the Bureau, human resources
management, and the Washington Administrative Service Center.

Facilities.--This activity finances: (1) operation and maintenance,
facilities management, and special support services for the operation of
the National Center headquarters; and, (2) some services for major field
centers.

Reimbursable program.--Reimbursements from non-Federal sources are
from States and municipalities for: cooperative efforts and proceeds
from sale to the public of copies of photographs and records; proceeds
from sale of personal property; reimbursements from permittees and
licensees of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission; and
reimbursements from foreign countries and international organizations
for technical assistance. Reimbursements from other Federal agencies are
for mission related work performed at the request of the financing
agency.

Funding for the surveys, investigations, and research account is
proposed as part of the Research Fund for America. This proposal
highlights the Administration's priority to providing needed and
sustained investments in important Federal research programs on a
deficit neutral basis. A discussion of the Research Fund for America,
and two other funds for the environment and transportation, can be found
in Section II of the Budget volume.

Note.--Collections contained in this account include amounts that
have been legislatively reclassified as intragovernmental funds.

Ecological services.--The Service provides technical assistance to
prevent or minimize adverse environmental effects of development
projects; restores trust species habitats; and, produces wetland maps of
the United States. Contaminants are investigated, monitored, and
assessed. Activities are pursued to prevent species from becoming
extinct, and to return them to the point where they are neither
threatened nor endangered.

Refuges and wildlife.--The Service maintains the National Wildlife
Refuge System consisting of 512 units, with waterfowl production areas
in 198 counties and 50 coordination areas, totaling about 93 million
acres; directs and coordinates national migratory bird programs; and,
enforces Federal wildlife laws and regulations.

Fisheries.--The Service is responsible for the development,
management, protection and enhancement of interjurisdictional fishery
resources, and provides technical assistance related to fish, wildlife
and marine mammals.

General administration.--Provides policy guidance, program
coordination, and administrative services to all fish and wildlife
programs. The funds also support the Service's international activities,
National Education and Training Center, and projects through the
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to restore and enhance fish and
wildlife populations.

Funding for refuge maintenance and habitat improvement in the
resource management account is proposed as part of the Environmental
Resources Fund for America. This proposal highlights the
Administration's priority to provide deficit neutral funding for
investments in many of our Nation's key environmental programs. A
discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund for America and two other
funds for research and transportation can be found in Section II of the
Budget volume.

Under the Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration Fund,
natural resource damage assessments will be performed in order to
provide the basis for claims against responsible parties for the
restoration of damaged natural resources. Funds are appropriated to
conduct damage assessments and for program management. In addition,
funds will be received for the restoration of damaged resources and
other activities and for natural resource damage assessments from
responsible parties through negotiated settlements or other legal
actions by the Department of the Interior.

Restoration activities include: (1) the replacement and enhancement
of affected resources; (2) acquisition of equivalent

[[Page 526]]

resources and services; and, (3) long-term environmental monitoring and
research programs directed to the prevention, containment, and
amelioration of hazardous substances and oil spill sites.

The Fund operates as a departmentwide program, incorporating the
expertise of its various bureaus and offices. Natural resource damage
assessments and the restoration of damaged natural resources are
authorized by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,
and Liability Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.), Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), the Oil
Pollution Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-380), and the Act of July 27, 1990 (P.L.
101-337). Since 1992, amounts received by the United States from
responsible parties for restoration or reimbursement in settlement of
natural resource damages may be deposited in the Fund and shall accrue
interest.

exxon valdez restoration program

The budget incorporates the receipts and mandatory spending
associated with the 1991 Exxon Valdez oil spill civil and criminal
settlements. Receipts for restoration activities from 1992 through 2001
are currently estimated to total $687 million. Not included in the
receipts is $108 million which is currently allocated to the Restoration
Reserve to address restoration activities beyond 2001. The Exxon Valdez
Oil Spill Trustee Council was formed to act on behalf of the public as
trustees in the collection and joint use of all civil settlement
recoveries. The criminal settlement funds are managed separately by the
Federal and Alaska State governments, although activities are
coordinated with the Trustee Council to maximize restoration benefits.

Funding from the settlements, as well as interest, is provided to
the Federal and Alaska State governments to restore the resources and
services damaged by the 1989 oil spill. Based upon the current
assessment of damages, these funds are sufficient to complete the
restoration program. Restoration activities were initiated in 1992 and
habitat protection was begun in 1993.

Habitat protection and acquisition is one of the principal tools of
restoration. The Trustee Council has underway two habitat protection and
acquisition programs, a large parcel program that protects blocks of
land in excess of 1,000 acres and a small parcel program that recognizes
the unique habitat qualities and strategic restoration value that
smaller tracts provide. Funding from the Exxon Valdez civil and criminal
settlements, the Land and Water Conservation Fund, and private
partnerships work together as an integrated approach to the restoration
program. The Council has been working with large and small landowners,
on a willing-seller basis, in the spill-impacted area to protect
approximately 750,000 acres of habitat.

The Partnerships for Wildlife Act (16 U.S.C. 3741), authorizes
wildlife conservation and appreciation projects to conserve fish and
wildlife species and to provide opportunities for the public to enjoy
these species through nonconsumptive activities. Grants to States are
directed toward nonconsumptive activities and the conservation of
species not taken for recreation, fur, or food; not listed as endangered
or threatened under the Endangered Species Act of 1973; and not defined
as marine mammals under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972.
Funding from appropriations is made available to the extent external
matching funds are applied to the projects.

Funds deposited into this account include direct appropriations and
fines, penalties, and forfeitures collected under the authority of the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16 U.S.C. 707) and interest on obligations
held in the Federal Aid to Wildlife Restoration Fund. The funding for
the North American Wetlands Conservation Fund is authorized by the North
American Wetlands Conservation Act, Public Law 101-233. The Act
established the North American Wetlands Conservation Council, which
recommends wetlands conservation projects for the approval of the
Migratory Bird Conservation Commission.

These projects help fulfill the habitat protection, restoration and
enhancement goals of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan, the
Act and the Tripartite Agreement among Mexico, Canada and the United
States. These projects may involve partnerships with public agencies and
private entities, with non-Federal matching contributions, and will
provide for the long-term conservation of habitat for migratory birds
and other fish and wildlife, including species that are listed, or are
candidates to be listed, under the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C.
1531).

Wetlands conservation projects include the obtaining of a real
property interest in lands or waters, including water rights; the
restoration, management or enhancement of habitat; and training and
development for conservation management in Mexico. Funding may be
provided for assistance for wetlands conservation projects in Canada or
Mexico.

Funding for the North American Wetlands Conservation Fund is
proposed as part of the Environmental Resources Fund for America. This
proposal highlights the Administration's priority to provide deficit
neutral funding for investments in many of our Nation's key
environmental programs. A discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund
for America and two other funds for research and transportation can be
found in Section II of the Budget volume.

The Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund provides grants
to States and U.S. territories to participate in conservation, recovery,
and monitoring projects for species that are listed, or species that are
candidates for listing, as threatened or endangered. The Fund is
authorized by the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C.
1531-1543), and financed by permanent appropriations from the General
Fund of the U.S. Treasury in an amount equal to 5 percent of receipts
deposited to the Federal aid in wildlife and sport fish restoration
accounts. The actual amount available for grants is subject to annual
appropriations. Grants are also awarded to States for land acquisition
in support of Habitat Conservation Plans with local governments and
other interested parties to protect species while allowing development
to continue.

The Refuge Revenue Sharing Act (16 U.S.C. 715s) authorizes revenues
through the sale of products from Service lands, less expenses for
producing revenue and activities related to revenue sharing. The Fish
and Wildlife Service makes payments to counties in which Service lands
are located. If the net revenues are insufficient to make full payments
according to the formula contained in the Act, direct appropriations are
authorized to make up the difference.

In 1997, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service initiated the
recreational fee demonstration program at selected refuges and other
public sites authorized by the Omnibus Consolidated Rescissions and
Appropriations Act of 1996, as amended. Entrance fees and other user
receipts collected at sites that had no pre-existing fee program will be
deposited in this account. Receipts collected at sites with previously
established user fee programs will be deposited into the Recreational
fee demonstration program account, in accordance with a legislatively
prescribed formula.

The fee program demonstrates the feasibility of user-generated cost
recovery for the operation and maintenance of recreation areas or sites
and habitat enhancement projects on Federal lands. Fees are used
primarily at the site to improve visitor access, enhance public safety
and security, address backlogged maintenance needs, and meet other
operational needs.

Since fiscal year 1992 the Sport Fish Restoration Fund has supported
coastal wetlands grants pursuant to the Coastal Wetlands Planning,
Protection and Restoration Act (P.L. 101-646). Additional revenue from
small engine fuel taxes was provided under the Surface Transportation
Extension Act of 1997.

The Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act
requires an amount equal to 18 percent of the total deposits into the
Sport Fish Restoration Fund, or amounts collected in small engine fuels
excise taxes as provided by 26 U.S.C. 9504(b), whichever is greater, to
be distributed as follows: 70 percent shall be available to the Corps of
Engineers for priority project and conservation planning activities; 15
percent shall be available to the Fish and Wildlife Service for coastal
wetlands conservation grants; and 15 percent to the Fish and Wildlife
Service for wetlands conservation projects under Section 8 of the North
American Wetlands Conservation Act (P.L. 101-233).

The Clean Vessel Act of 1992, which expired on September 30, 1997,
authorized the Secretary of the Interior to make grants to States, in
specified amounts, to carry out projects for the construction,
renovation, operation, and maintenance of pumpout stations and waste
reception facilities. The Sport Fish Restoration Act, as amended,
provides for the transfer of funds from the Sport fish restoration
account of the Aquatic Resources Trust Fund for use by the Secretary of
the Interior to carry out the purposes of this Act and for use by the
Secretary of Transportation for State recreational boating safety
programs under section 13106(a)(1) of title 46, United States Code.

Assistance is provided to States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin
Islands, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the District
of Columbia for up to 75 percent of the cost of approved projects
including: research into fisheries problems, surveys and inventories of
fish populations, and acquisition and improvement of fish habitat and
provision of access for public use.

The National Park System contains 376 areas and 83.3 million acres
of land in 49 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S.
Virgin Islands, Guam, Samoa, and the Northern Marianas. These areas have
been established to protect and preserve the cultural and natural
heritage of the United States and its territories. Park visits total
over 276 million annually. This appropriation funds the operation of
individual units of the National Park System as well as planning and
administrative support for the entire system. The total appropriation
request of $1,320,828,000 includes $8,075,000 in estimated revenue from
recreation, user and entrance fees in accordance with 16 U.S.C. 460l-
6a(i)-(j), excluding fees credited to other accounts by law, to remain
available until expended.

Funding for Everglades restoration and the maintenance subactivity
of the Operation of the National Park System account is proposed as part
of the Environmental Resources Fund for America. This proposal
highlights the Administration's priority to provide deficit neutral
funding for investments in many of our Nation's key environmental
programs. A discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund for America
and two other funds for research and transportation can be found in
Section II of the Budget volume.

Construction.--This activity provides for: (1) rehabilitation and
restoration of historic and cultural resources; (2) rehabilitation of
operational structures such as visitor use and maintenance facilities,
trails, and utility systems; (3) construction of new visitor use and
operational facilities where the need exists; and (4) rehabilitation and
construction of park roads and bridges, funded from the Federal Lands
Highways program in the Department of Transportation.

Emergency, unscheduled, and housing projects.--To continue visitor
services and preserve resources, minor emergency reconstruction and
repair projects are performed. Also, employee housing is built, repaired
and rehabilitated.

Planning.--Under this activity, the National Park Service conducts
environmental, architectural and engineering studies, as well as
planning and design activities.

General management plans.--Under this activity, general management
plans are prepared and revised to guide the National Park Service in the
protection, use, development, and management of each unit of the
National Park System.

Equipment replacement.--Under this activity, automated and motorized
equipment to support park operations and visitor services throughout the
National Park System is purchased to replace existing inventories that
have met use and age limitations. Initial inventories of equipment are
purchased for units recently added to the system.

Full funding through advance appropriations.--Full funding of fixed
asset acquisitions reduces the risk of cost overruns from delayed
funding and increases accountability for cost estimates. Advance
appropriations are requested to complete the following construction
projects funded through 1998 that require additional funding in the
outyears: Sequoia National Park ($13 million after 1999); Riis Park in
Gateway National Recreation Area ($5.5 million); Shiloh National
Military Park ($10 million); Lake Mead National Recreation Area ($7.55
million); and Elwha River restoration in Olympic National Park ($16
million).

National Park Service agreements with private concessioners
providing visitor services within national parks can require the
concessioners to deposit a portion of gross receipts or a fixed sum of
money in a separate bank account. A concessioner may expend funds from
such an account at the direction of the park superintendent for
facilities that directly support concession visitor services, but would
not otherwise be funded through the appropriations process.
Concessioners do not accrue possessory interests from improvements
funded through these accounts.

The Administration will offer legislative proposals and implement
administrative reforms to improve management of the park concessions
program and increase competition for concessions contracts. Proposed
legislation will encourage parks to increase returns from concessions
contracts by allowing parks to retain all existing and new franchise
fees to use for park improvements and concessions related activities.

This appropriation finances 60 percent programmatic matching grants-
in-aid to the States, certified local governments, and the National
Trust for Historic Preservation for historic preservation, and direct
grants-in-aid for special legislated purposes. This includes grants to
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and to Indian
tribes. Pursuant to the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act
(P.L. 104-333), this appropriation includes $15.4 million in 1999 for
grants to specified HBCUs for the preservation and restoration of
historic buildings and structures.

Funding for a portion of the Historic Preservation Fund account is
proposed as part of the Environmental Resources Fund for America. This
proposal highlights the Administration's priority to provide deficit
neutral funding for investments in many of our Nation's key
environmental programs. A discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund
for America and two other funds for research and transportation can be
found in Section II of the Budget volume.

The President's budget proposes a $50 million increase in funding
for Save America's Treasures in the National Park Service Historic
Preservation Fund to provide assistance to public and private entities
for commemorating the Millennium by addressing the Nation's most urgent
preservation priorities. These funds will support one of the most
important tasks facing America at the turn of the century--to preserve
America's most threatened historical and cultural heritage for future
generations. These treasures include the significant documents, objects,
manuscipts, photographs, works of art, maps, journals, still and moving
images, sound recordings, historic structures and sites that document
and illuminate the history and culture of the United States.

The National Park Service and other land management agencies have
initiated a demonstration fee program that allows parks and other units
to collect new or increased admission and user fees and spend the
revenue for park improvements. This temporary authority, provided in
section 315 of section 101(c) of Public Law 104-134 as amended or
supplemented by section 319 of section 101(d) of Public Law 104-208,
section 5001 of Public Law 105-18, and sections 107, 320 and 321 of
Public Law 105-83, expires at the end of fiscal year 1999. The
authorizing legislation has been amended to make all fee revenue at
demonstration sites available for obligation in the National Park
Renewal Fund beginning in fiscal year 1998. To ensure that fee revenue
remains available for park improvements after 1999, the Administration
will propose legislation providing permanent fee authority to take
effect once the current authority expires.

The Operation of Indian Programs appropriation consists of a wide
range of services and benefits provided to Indian Tribes, Alaskan Native
groups, and individual Native Americans. As part of a joint Department
of the Interior and Department of Justice initiative to address the
serious crime problem on many reservations, an increase of $25 million
in new funding for law enforcement is included in Operation of Indian
Programs for FY 1999.

Tribal priority allocations.--This activity includes the majority of
funds used to support ongoing programs at the local Tribal level.
Funding priorities for base programs included in Tribal Priority
Allocations are determined by Tribes. Although budget estimates include
specific amounts for individual programs, funds may be shifted among
programs within the total available for a Tribe or a BIA agency office
at the time of budget execution.

Other recurring programs.--This activity includes ongoing programs
for which funds are (1) distributed by formula, such as elementary and
secondary school operations and Tribal community colleges; and (2) for
resource management activities that carry out specific laws or court-
ordered settlements.

Non-recurring programs.--This activity includes programs that
support Indian reservation and Tribal projects of limited duration, such
as noxious weed eradication, cadastral surveys, and forest development,
and special law enforcement.

Central office operations.--This activity supports the executive,
program, and administrative management costs of central office
organizations, most of which are located in Washington, DC, and
Albuquerque, NM.

Area office operations.--The Bureau of Indian Affairs has 12 area
offices located throughout the country. Area Directors have line
authority over agency office superintendents. Most of the agency offices
are located on Indian reservations. Virtually all of the staff and
related administrative support costs for area and agency offices are
included within this activity. Area Directors have flexibility in
aligning their staff and resources to best meet the program requirements
of the Tribes within their area.

Special programs and pooled overhead.--Most of the funds in this
activity support bureau-wide expenses for items such as unemployment
compensation, workers compensation, facilities rentals,
telecommunications, and data processing. This activity includes the
Bureau's two post-secondary schools, the Indian police academy, law
enforcement, the Indian Arts and Crafts Board, the Indian Integrated
Resources Information Program, and non-education facilities operation
and maintenance.

Funding for a portion of the Operation of Indian Programs account is
proposed as part of the Environmental Resources Fund for America. This
proposal highlights the Administration's priority to provide deficit
neutral funding for investments in many of our Nation's key
environmental programs. A discussion of the Environmental Resources Fund
for America and two other funds for research and transportation can be
found in Section II of the Budget volume.

Funds were provided by the 1998 appropriations for the Department of
the Interior and related agencies from the Land and Water Conservation
Fund to supplement land acquisition funding for the National Park
Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Fish and Wildlife Service to
allow these agencies to complete priority Federal land acquisitions and
exchanges. The top priority for the Department of the Interior is the
acquisition of 7,500 acres of old-growth redwoods and adjacent lands in
the Headwaters Forest in northern California. (The Department of
Agriculture's U.S. Forest Service also received additional funds for
priority Federal land acquisitions and exchanges, including the private
lands associated with the New World Mine project in Montana near
Yellowstone National Park.)

Until October 1, 1994, the United States exercised jurisdiction over
the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands according to the terms of the
1947 Trusteeship Agreement between the United States and the Security
Council of the United Nations. These responsibilities were carried out
by the Department of the Interior.

The Department of the Interior is seeking no additional
appropriations for the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Compacts
of Free Association have been implemented with the Federated States of
Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and, as of October 1,
1994, the Republic of Palau. Assistance to the Republic of Palau is now
contained in the ``Compact of Free Association'' account.

Remaining funds in the ``Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands''
account will be used to meet final transition responsibilities of the
United States. Outlays from numerous on-going infrastructure
construction projects in the Republic of Palau and the other two
entities will continue as provided by the Compacts of Free Association
and appropriation laws, and will be reported as Trust Territory
expenditures until such time as the activities cease.

The peoples of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of
Micronesia approved Compacts of Free Association negotiated by the
United States and their governments. The Compact of Free Association Act
of 1985 (Public Law 99-239) constituted the necessary authorizing
legislation to make annual payments to the Republic of the Marshall
Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia. Payments began in fiscal
year 1987 and will continue for fifteen years, totalling an estimated
$2.3 billion, to aid in the development of these sovereign nations. The
Compact of Free Association with the Republic of Palau was implemented
under the terms of Public Law 99-658 on October 1, 1994. This compact
will provide annual benefits to the Republic totalling an estimated $600
million over the fifteen-year period that began at the implementation
date.

This consolidated display presents the activities associated with
the following accounts:

Cochiti Wetfields Solution.--In FY 1994, the Army Corps of Engineers
transferred $4,449,100 pursuant to PL. 102-358 and the settlement
agreement between the Cochiti Tribe, Corps, and Department of Interior.
This is a sinking fund with a life expectancy of 50 to 100 years. Funds
are used to pay for operation and maintenance, repair, and replacement
of the ongoing drainage system for the Cochiti Pueblo. Funds will be
invested and principal and interest may be used. It is estimated that it
will cost the Tribe approximately $50,000 per year to operate and
maintain the drainage system. The $282,000 represents the estimated
interest earnings on the fund.

Tribal Economic Recovery Fund.--This fund is authorized by the Three
Affiliated Tribes and Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Equitable Compensation
Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-575) and holds funds which have been
appropriated pursuant to the Act.

Beginning in FY 1998, interest earned on the principal of this fund
is available for both Tribes for economic development, education, and
social services programs.

subsistence uses on all public lands in Alaska because of the
failure of State law to provide a rural preference;

priority required on public lands under section 804 of this Act
applies to navigable waters in which the United States has reserved
water rights as identified by the Secretary of the Interior;
``(6) management of fish and wildlife resources by State
governments has proven successful in all 50 States, including
Alaska, and the State of Alaska should have the opportunity to
continue to manage such resources on all lands, including public
lands, in Alaska in accordance with this Act, as amended; and
``(7) it is necessary to amend portions of this Act to restore
the original intent of Congress to protect and provide for the
continued opportunity for subsistence uses on public lands for
Alaska Native and non-Alaska Native rural residents through the
management of the State of Alaska.''.
(4) Title viii definitions.--Section 803 (16 U.S.C. 3113) is

and wildlife in a specific area and the patterns and practices of
taking or use of that fish and wildlife that have been established
over a reasonable period of time, taking into consideration the
availability of the fish and wildlife;
``(4) `customary trade' means, except for money sales of furs
and furbearers, the limited noncommercial exchange for money of fish
and wildlife or their parts in minimal quantities; and

803(3)), to participate in a subsistence hunt or fishery with a
reasonable expectation of success, and does not mean a guarantee that

enacted and implemented laws of general applicability which are
consistent with, and which provide for the definition, preference, and
participation specified in sections 803, 804, and 805, the Secretary
shall not implement subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this section, and
the State may immediately assume management for the taking of fish and
wildlife on the public lands for subsistence uses pursuant to this
title. Upon assumption of such management by the State, the Secretary
shall not implement subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this section unless
a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such laws have been
repealed, modified, or implemented in a way that is inconsistent with,
or does not provide for, the definition, preference, and participation
specified in sections 803, 804, and 805, or that the State has failed to
cure any such inconsistency after such determination. The State laws
shall otherwise supercede such sections insofar as such sections govern
State responsibility pursuant to this title for the taking of fish and
wildlife on the public lands for subsistence uses. The Secretary may
bring a judicial action to enforce this subsection.
``(2)(A) Laws establishing a system of local advisory committees and
regional advisory councils consistent with section 805 shall provide
that the State rulemaking authority shall consider the advice and
recommendations of the regional councils concerning the taking of fish
and wildlife populations on public lands within their respective regions
for subsistence uses. The regional councils may present recommendations,
and the evidence upon which such recommendations are based, to the State
rulemaking authority during the course of the administrative proceedings
of such authority. The State rulemaking authority may choose not to
follow any recommendation which it determines is not supported by
substantial evidence presented during the course of its administrative
proceedings, violates recognized principles of fish and wildlife
conservation or would be detrimental to the satisfaction of rural
subsistence needs. If a recommendation is not adopted by the State
rulemaking authority, such authority shall set forth the factual basis
and the reasons for its decision.
``(B) The members of each regional advisory council established
under this subsection shall be appointed by the Governor of Alaska. Each
council shall have ten members, four of whom shall be selected from
nominees who reside in the region submitted by tribal councils in the
region, and six of whom shall be selected from nominees submitted by
local governments and local advisory committees. Three of these six
shall be subsistence users who reside in the subsistence resource region
and three shall be sport or commercial users who may be residents of any
subsistence resource region. Regional council

[[Page 572]]

members shall have staggered terms of three years in length, with no
limit on the number of terms a member may serve. A quorum shall be a
majority of the members of the council.''.
(7) Judicial enforcement.--Section 807 (16 U.S.C. 3117) is
amended by inserting the following as subsection (b):
``(b) State agency actions may be declared invalid by the court only
if they are arbitrary, capricious, or an abuse of discretion, or
otherwise not in accordance with law. When reviewing any action within
the specialized knowledge of a State agency, the court shall give the
decision of the State agency the same deference it would give the same
decision of a comparable Federal agency.''.
(8) Regulations.--Section 814 (16 U.S.C. 3124) is amended--
(A) by inserting ``, and the State at any time the State has
complied with section 805(d)'' after ``Secretary''; and

805(d), the Secretary shall not make or enforce regulations
implementing section 805(a), (b), or (c).''.

inserting in lieu thereof a semicolon and ``or''; and
(C) by inserting at the end the following new paragraph:
``(5) prohibiting the Secretary or the State from entering into co-
management agreements with Alaska Native organizations or other local or
regional entities when such organization or entity is managing fish and
wildlife on public lands in Alaska for subsistence uses.''.
(c) Savings Clause.--No provision of this section, amendment made by
this section, or exercise of authority pursuant to this section may be
construed to validate, invalidate, or in any way affect--
(1) any assertion that an Alaska Native organization (including
a federally recognized tribe, traditional Alaska Native council, or
Alaska Native council organized pursuant to the Act of June 18, 1934
(25 U.S.C. 461 et seq.), as amended) has or does not have
governmental authority over lands (including management of, or
regulation of the taking of, fish and wildlife) or persons within
the boundaries of the State of Alaska;
(2) any assertion that Indian country, as defined in section
1151 of title 18, United States Code, exists or does not exist
within the boundaries of the State of Alaska;
(3) any assertion that the Alaska National Interest Lands
Conservation Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 3101 et seq.) is or is not
Indian law; or
(4) the authority of the Secretary of the Interior under section
1314(c) of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (16
U.S.C. 3202(c)).
(d) Effective Date.--Unless and until laws are adopted in the State
of Alaska which provide for the definition, preference, and
participation specified in sections 803, 804, and 805 of the Alaska
National Interest Lands Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 3111 et seq.), the
amendments made by subsection (b) of this section shall be effective
only for the purposes of determining whether the State's laws provide
for such definition, preference, and participation. The Secretary shall
certify before December 1, 1998 if such laws have been adopted in the
State of Alaska. Subsection (b) shall be repealed on such date if such
laws have not been adopted.]

management lands located near Table Mountain within the Columbia River
Gorge National Scenic Area, title to which must be acceptable to the
Secretary of Agriculture.
(c) Before this exchange can occur, it must be of equal value and
the Secretary and the Skamania County Board of Commissioners must agree
on the exact parcels of land to be included in the exchange. An
agreement signed by the Secretary of Agriculture and the Skamania County
Board of Commissioners describing the properties involved and a
certification that the exchange is of equal value must be completed no

and exchange of lands, easements, reservations, and other interests in
lands, but also by full value credit for such services as Skamania
County provides to the Gifford Pinchot and Columbia River Gorge National
Scenic Area and as the Secretary and Skamania County deem appropriate.
The Secretary may accept services in lieu of cash when the Secretary can
discern cash value for the services and when the Secretary determines
such services would provide direct benefits to lands and resources and
users of such lands and resources under the jurisdiction of the
Secretary.
(g) Any cash equalization which Skamania County elects to make may
be made up to 50 percent of the fair market value of the Federal
property, and such cash equalization may be made in installments over a
period not to exceed 25 years. Payments received as partial
consideration shall be deposited into the fund in the Treasury
established under the Act of December 4, 1967, commonly known as the
Sisk Act, and shall be available for expenditure as provided in the Act
except that the Secretary may not use those funds to purchase lands
within Skamania County.
(h) In defining the Federal estate to be conveyed, the Secretary may
require such additional terms and conditions as deemed necessary in
connection with assuring equal value and public interest considerations
in this exchange including, but not limited to, continued research use
of the Wind River Experimental Forest and protection of natural,
cultural, and historic resources, existing administrative sites, and a
scenic corridor for the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail.
(i) This authorization is predicated on Skamania County's Board of
Commissioners commitment to give foremost consideration to preservation
of the overall integrity of the site and conservation of the educational
and research potential of the site, including providing for access to
and assurance of the continued administration and operation of forestry
research on the adjacent Thornton Munger Research Natural Area.
(j) The Secretary is further directed to cooperate with Skamania
County to address applicable Federal and State environmental laws.
(k) Notwithstanding the processes involved with the National
Environmental Policy Act and the State Environmental Policy Act, should
the Secretary of Agriculture and the Skamania County Board of
Commissioners fail to reach an agreement on an equal value exchange
defined under the terms of this legislation by September 30, 1999, the
Wind River Nursery Site shall remain under Forest Service ownership and
be maintained by the Forest Service in a tenantable condition.]
