     recreation areas to be transferred under sections 605(c) and 
     606(c) or leased by the State of South Dakota or Indian 
     Tribes, until such time as the trust funds under sections 603

       JOINT EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF CONFERENCE

       The Managers on the part of the House and Senate at the 
     conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the 
     amendment of the House to the bill (S. 507), to provide for 
     the conservation and development of water and related 
     resources, to authorize the Secretary of the Army to 
     construct various projects for other purposes, submit the 
     following joint statement to the House and Senate in 
     explanation of the effect of the action agreed upon by the 
     managers and recommended in the accompanying conference 
     report:
       The House amendment struck all of the Senate bill after the 
     enacting clause and inserted a substitute text.
       The Senate recedes from its disagreement to the amendment 
     of the House with an amendment that is a substitute for the 
     Senate bill and the House amendment. The differences between 
     the Senate bill, the House amendment, and the substitute 
     agreed to in conference are noted below, except for clerical 
     corrections, conforming changes made necessary by agreements 
     reached by the conferees, and minor drafting and clerical 
     changes.

     report, but for which such reports are anticipated by 
     December 31, 1999. These projects have been included in order 
     to assure that projects anticipated to satisfy the necessary 
     technical documentation by December 31, 1999 are not delayed 
     in each case that the final reports can be completed by the 
     end of 1999.

       The conferees understand that there may be potentially

     Sec. 101(b)(3), Senate Sec. 101(b)(4).--House recedes.
       In the Water Resources Development Act of 1996, Congress 
     provided that publicly or privately owned upland sites may be 
     considered for dredged material disposal. The Secretary 
     should consider developing a management plan that addresses 
     the equitable distribution of the dredged material in the San 
     Francisco Bay area to various upland sites in cases where 
     dredged material from Corps of Engineers construction or 
     maintenance dredging is available for beneficial use or other 
     upland disposal methods. In comparing the costs and benefits 
     of public and private disposal options, the Secretary shall 
     consider all costs and benefits, including all publicly 
     funded costs, to ensure that an objective and equitable 
     comparison of private and public facilities occurs.

     Island, New Jersey. House

[[Page H7311]]

     Sec. 101(b)(10), Senate Sec. 101(b)(18).--Senate recedes with 
     an amendment.
       101(b)(13) Columbia River Channel, Oregon and Washington. 
     House Sec. 101(b)(11), Senate Sec. 101(b)(19).--Senate 
     recedes.
       101(b)(14) Johnson Creek, Arlington, Texas. House 
     Sec. 101(b)(12), Senate Sec. 101(b)(21).--Senate recedes.
       101(b)(15) Howard Hanson Dam, Washington. House 
     Sec. 101(b)(13), Senate Sec. 101(b)(22).--House recedes.
       The managers recognize that the cost sharing for the Howard 
     Hanson Dam project could appropriately be affected by the 
     recent listing of the Puget Sound Chinook Salmon as a 
     protected species under the Endangered Species Act. The 
     United States Department of Commerce, National Marine 
     Fisheries Service, has stated its intent to consult with both 
     the Army Corps of Engineers and the City of Tacoma concerning 
     responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act as it 
     relates to the Howard Hanson Dam project and the City of 
     Tacoma water diversion project. One of the purposes of the 
     project being authorized is to develop a fish passage for 
     downstream migration of salmon. When this consultation 
     process is completed, the appropriate cost sharing allocation 
     for the project may be different from that stated in the 
     report of the Chief of Engineers. Therefore, it is the 
     understanding of the managers that the Secretary, after 
     consultation with the Secretary of Commerce, will, if 
     appropriate, revise the allocation of cost sharing found in 
     the final report of the Chief of Engineers to reflect the 
     responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act for the 
     protection of the threatened Puget Sound Chinook Salmon.

       The conferees understand that the Transportation Equity Act 
     for the 21st Century (P.L. 105-206) included funding for the 
     design and construction of a facility for safe pedestrian 
     access, specifically an esplanade in the vicinity of Joseph 
     G. Minish Waterfront Park, Newark, New Jersey. The conferees 
     understand it is the intent of the local proponents that the 
     esplanade is to have an overall width of 600 feet. The 
     conferees encourage the Corps of Engineers to provide 
     appropriate technical assistance in the planning of such 
     project to ensure its coordination with existing Corps' 
     projects and activities along the Passaic River.
