-STATUTE-
(a) Provision of facilities, acquisition of lands, and provision
for public use and enjoyment of project lands, facilities, and
water areas in coordination with other project purposes;
execution of agreements before providing lands, facilities, and
project modifications
The Secretary is authorized, in conjunction with any reservoir
heretofore constructed by him pursuant to the Federal reclamation
laws or any reservoir which is otherwise under his control, except
reservoirs within national wildlife refuges, to investigate, plan,
construct, operate and maintain, or otherwise provide for public
outdoor recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement facilities, to
acquire or otherwise make available such adjacent lands or
interests therein as are necessary for public outdoor recreation or
fish and wildlife use, and to provide for public use and enjoyment
of project lands, facilities, and water areas in a manner
coordinated with the other project purposes. Lands, facilities and
project modifications for the purposes of this subsection may be
provided only after an agreement in accordance with subsection (b)
or (c) of section 460l-14 of this title has been executed.
(b) Agreements with government agencies to promote development and
operation of lands or facilities for recreation and fish and
wildlife enhancement purposes
The Secretary of the Interior is authorized to enter into
agreements with Federal agencies or State or local public bodies
for the administration of project land and water areas and the
operation, maintenance, and replacement of facilities and to
transfer project lands or facilities to Federal agencies or State
or local public bodies by lease agreement or exchange upon such
terms and conditions as will best promote the development and
operation of such lands or facilities in the public interest for
recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement purposes.
(c) Transfer of lands; consent of other Federal agencies to use of
lands for recreation or fish and wildlife purposes; transfers to
Secretary of Agriculture of forest lands; continuing
administration of lands and waters for other project purposes;
prohibition against limitation of authority under existing
provisions of law
No lands under the jurisdiction of any other Federal agency may
be included for or devoted to recreation or fish and wildlife
purposes under the authority of this section without the consent of
the head of such agency; and the head of any such agency is
authorized to transfer any such lands to the jurisdiction of the
Secretary of the Interior for purposes of this section. The
Secretary of the Interior is authorized to transfer jurisdiction
over project lands within or adjacent to the exterior boundaries of
national forests and facilities thereon to the Secretary of
Agriculture for recreation and other national forest system
purposes; and such transfer shall be made in each case in which the
project reservoir area is located wholly within the exterior
boundaries of a national forest unless the Secretaries of
Agriculture and Interior jointly determine otherwise. Where any
project lands are transferred hereunder to the jurisdiction of the
Secretary of Agriculture, the lands involved shall become national
forest lands: Provided, That the lands and waters within the flow
lines of any reservoir or otherwise needed or used for the
operation of the project for other purposes shall continue to be
administered by the Secretary of the Interior to the extent he
determines to be necessary for such operation. Nothing herein shall
limit the authority of the Secretary of the Interior granted by
existing provisions of law relating to recreation or fish and
wildlife development in connection with water resource projects or
to disposition of public lands for such purposes.

Sec. 460l-22. Conveyance of property and interests in property in
national park system and miscellaneous areas

-STATUTE-
(a) Freehold and leasehold interests; competitive bidding
With respect to any property acquired by the Secretary of the
Interior within a unit of the national park system or miscellaneous
area, except property within national parks, or within national
monuments of scientific significance, the Secretary may convey a
freehold or leasehold interest therein, subject to such terms and
conditions as will assure the use of the property in a manner which
is, in the judgment of the Secretary, consistent with the purpose
for which the area was authorized by the Congress. In any case in
which the Secretary exercises his discretion to convey such
interest, he shall do so to the highest bidder, in accordance with
such regulations as the Secretary may prescribe, but such
conveyance shall be at not less than the fair market value of the
interest, as determined by the Secretary; except that if any such
conveyance is proposed within two years after the property to be
conveyed is acquired by the Secretary, he shall allow the last
owner or owners of record of such property thirty days following
the date on which they are notified by the Secretary in writing
that such property is to be conveyed within which to notify the
Secretary that such owners wish to acquire such interest. Upon
receiving such timely request, the Secretary shall convey such
interest to such person or persons, in accordance with such
regulations as the Secretary may prescribe, upon payment or
agreement to pay an amount equal to the highest bid price.
(b) Exchange of lands; other disposal; equal land values
The Secretary of the Interior is authorized to accept title to
any non-Federal property or interest therein within a unit of the
National Park System or miscellaneous area under his
administration, and in exchange therefor he may convey to the
grantor of such property or interest any Federally-owned property
or interest therein under his jurisdiction which he determines is
suitable for exchange or other disposal and which is located in the
same State as the non-Federal property to be acquired: Provided,
however, That timber lands subject to harvest under a sustained
yield program shall not be so exchanged. Upon request of a State or
a political subdivision thereof, or of a party in interest, prior
to such exchange the Secretary or his designee shall hold a public
hearing in the area where the lands to be exchanged are located.
The values of the properties so exchanged, either shall be
approximately equal, or if they are not approximately equal, the
values shall be equalized by the payment of cash to the grantor
from funds appropriated for the acquisition of land for the area,
or to the Secretary as the circumstances require.
(c) Solid waste disposal operations prohibited; exceptions;
regulations
In order to protect the air, land, water, and natural and
cultural values of the National Park System and the property of the
United States therein, no solid waste disposal site (including any
site for the disposal of domestic or industrial solid wastes) may
be operated within the boundary of any unit of the National Park
System, other than -
(1) a site which was operating as of September 1, 1984, or
(2) a site used only for disposal of wastes generated within
that unit of the park system so long as such site will not
degrade any of the natural or cultural resources of such park
unit.

The Secretary of the Interior shall promulgate regulations to carry
out the provisions of this subsection, including reasonable
regulations to mitigate the adverse effects of solid waste disposal
sites in operation as of September 1, 1984, upon property of the
United States.
(d) Proceeds credited to land and water conservation fund
The proceeds received from any conveyance under this section
shall be credited to the land and water conservation fund in the
Treasury of the United States.

Sec. 460l-31. Findings

-STATUTE-
The Congress finds and declares the following:
(1) There is a Federal responsibility to provide opportunities
for public recreation at Federal water projects.
(2) Some provisions of the Federal Water Project Recreation Act
[16 U.S.C. 460l-12 et seq.] are outdated because of increases in
demand for outdoor recreation and changes in the economic climate
for recreation managing entities.
(3) Provisions of such Act relating to non-Federal
responsibility for all costs of operation, maintenance, and
replacement of recreation facilities result in an unfair burden,
especially in cases where the facilities are old or
underdesigned.
(4) Provisions of such Act that limit the Federal share of
recreation facility development at water projects completed
before 1965 to $100,000 preclude a responsible Federal share in
providing adequate opportunities for safe outdoor recreation.
(5) There should be Federal authority to expand existing
recreation facilities to meet public demand, in partnership with
non-Federal interests.
(6) Nothing in this part changes the responsibility of the
Bureau to meet the purposes for which Federal Reclamation
projects were initially authorized and constructed.
(7) It is therefore in the best interest of the people of this
Nation to amend the Federal Water Project Recreation Act [16
U.S.C. 460l-12 et seq.] to remove outdated restrictions and
authorize the Secretary of the Interior to undertake specific
measures for the management of Reclamation lands.
