Sec. 460m-28. Flow management

-STATUTE-
(a) Findings
The Congress finds that adjustments of flows from Bluestone Lake
project during periods of low flow are necessary to respond to the
congressional mandate contained in section 460m-23 of this title
and that such adjustments could enhance the quality of the
recreational experience in the segments of the river below the lake
during those periods as well as protect the biological resources of
the river.
(b) Report to Congress required
The Secretary of the Army, in conjunction with the Secretary of
the Interior, shall conduct a study and prepare a report under this
section. The report shall be submitted to the Committee on Energy
and Natural Resources of the United States Senate and the Committee
on Interior and Insular Affairs of the United States House of
Representatives not later than December 31, 1989. Before submission
of the report to these Committees, a draft of the report shall be
made available for public comment. The final report shall include
the comments submitted by the Secretary of the Interior and the
public, together with the response of the Secretary of the Army to
those comments.
(c) Contents of study
The study under this section shall examine the feasibility of
adjusting the timing of daily releases from Bluestone Lake project
during periods when flows from the lake are less than three
thousand cubic feet per second. The purpose of such adjustment
shall be to improve recreation (including, but not limited to,
fishing and whitewater recreation) in the New River Gorge National
River. Any such adjustments in the timing of flows which are
proposed in such report shall be consistent with other project
purposes and shall not have significant adverse effects on fishing
or on any other form of recreation in Bluestone Lake or in any
segment of the river below Bluestone Lake. The study shall assess
the effects of such flow adjustments on the quality of recreation
on the river in the segments of the river between Hinton and
Thurmond and between Thurmond and the downstream boundary of the
New River Gorge National River, taking into account the levels of
recreational visitation in each of such segments.
(d) Test procedures
As part of the study under this section, the Secretary of the
Army shall conduct test releases from Bluestone Lake project during
twenty-four-hour periods during the summer of 1989 when flows are
less than three thousand cubic feet per second from the project.
All such adjustments shall conform to the criteria specified in
subsection (c) of this section. The tests shall provide adjustments
in the timing of daily flows from Bluestone Lake project which
permit flows higher than the twenty-four-hour average to reach
downstream recreational segments of the river during morning and
afternoon hours. The tests shall develop specific data on the
effects of flow adjustments on the speed of the current and on
water surface levels in those segments. No test shall be conducted
when flows from the lake are less than one thousand seven hundred
cubic feet per second and no test shall reduce flows below that
level.

Sec. 460o-1. Acquisition of lands

-STATUTE-
(a) Authority of Secretary of Army; transfer of jurisdiction over
lands to Secretary of the Interior; authority of such Secretary;
retention of use and occupancy rights; termination and transfer
of authority and funds; acquisition priorities
The Secretary of the Army is authorized and directed to acquire,
by such means as he may deem to be in the public interest, and as a
part of his acquisition of properties for the project, lands and
interests therein within the boundaries of the area, as generally
depicted on the drawing entitled "Proposed Tocks Island National
Recreation Area" dated and numbered September 1962, NRA-TI-7100,
which drawing is on file in the Office of the National Park
Service, Department of the Interior. In acquiring these lands, the
Secretary of the Army may utilize such statutory authorities as are
available to him for the acquisition of project lands: Provided,
That the Secretary of the Army shall acquire no lands or interests
in land by exchange for lands or interests in land in Federal
ownership unless the latter are in the States of Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, or New York. Periodically, and as soon as practicable after
such lands and interests within the area are acquired, the
Secretary of the Army shall transfer jurisdiction thereover to the
Secretary of the Interior for the purposes of this subchapter.
Beginning on November 10, 1978, the Secretary of the Interior is
authorized to acquire for purposes of the recreation area
established under this subchapter all lands and interests therein
within the exterior boundaries of the area depicted on the drawing
referred to in this subsection (including any lands within such
exterior boundaries designated for acquisition by the Secretary of
the Army in connection with the project referred to in this
subsection). In exercising such authority, the Secretary of the
Interior may permit the retention of rights of use and occupancy in
the same manner as provided in the case of acquisitions by the
Secretary of the Army under subsection (d) of this section. On
November 10, 1978, the acquisition authorities of any other Federal
agency contained in this subsection shall terminate and the head of
any other Federal agency shall transfer to the Secretary of the
Interior jurisdiction over all lands and interests therein acquired
by said agency under the authority of this subchapter, or any other
authority of law which lands are within the exterior boundaries of
the area depicted on the drawing referred to in this subsection. On
November 10, 1978, all unexpended balances available to any other
Federal agency for acquisition of land within the exterior
boundaries referred to in the preceding sentence shall be
transferred to the Secretary of the Interior to be used for such
purposes. In carrying out his acquisition authority under this
section the Secretary shall give priority to the following:
(1) completion of acquisition of lands for which condemnation
proceedings have been started pursuant to the authorization of
the project referred to in this subsection;
(2) acquisition of lands of beneficial owners, not being a
corporation, who in the judgment of the Secretary would suffer
hardship if acquisition of their lands were delayed;
(3) acquisition of lands on which, in the judgment of the
Secretary, there is an imminent danger of development that would
be incompatible with the purposes of the recreation area;
(4) acquisition of lands of beneficial owners, not being a
corporation, who are willing to sell their lands provided they
are able to continue to use it for noncommercial residential
purposes for a limited period of time which will not, in the
judgment of the Secretary, unduly interfere with the development
of public use facilities for such national recreation area,
pursuant to the authorization for such area;
(5) acquisition of scenic easements when, in the judgment of
the Secretary, such easements are sufficient to carry out the
purposes for which such national recreation area was authorized;
and
(6) acquisition of lands necessary to preserve the integrity of
the recreation area.
(b) Omission of designated lands from area
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this section,
the Secretary of the Interior is authorized, after consultation
with appropriate public officials of the affected political
subdivisions of the States of Pennsylvania or New Jersey, as the
case may be, to designate not more than three hundred acres
adjacent and contiguous to the Borough of Milford, Pennsylvania,
and not more than one thousand acres in Sussex County, New Jersey,
for omission from the Delaware Valley National Recreation Area and
the lands so designated shall not be acquired for said national
recreation area under authority of this subchapter.
(c) Extension of boundaries; study and report to Congress
The Secretary of the Interior shall investigate, study, and
report to the President and the Congress on the feasibility and
usefulness of extending the boundaries of the Delaware Water Gap
National Recreation Area to include, in whole or in part, that
portion of Tocks Island Reservoir which lies upstream from the
northern terminus of the national recreation area as shown on the
map hereinbefore referred to and lands adjacent to said portion of
said reservoir. No such extension of boundaries, however, shall be
made until authorized by Act of Congress.
(d) Noncommercial residential occupancy for life or fixed term of
years; price for property; "improved residential property"
defined; waiver of relocation assistance benefits or rights
The beneficial owner, not being a corporation, of a freehold
interest acquired before January 1, 1965, in improved residential
property within the area to be acquired by the Secretary of the
Army under authority of this subchapter, the continued use of which
property for noncommercial residential purposes for a limited time
will not, in the judgment of the Secretary of the Interior, unduly
interfere with the development of public-use facilities for the
national recreation area and will not, in the judgment of the
Secretary of the Army, unduly interfere with the operation of the
Tocks Island Reservoir project, may retain a right of use and
occupancy of such property for noncommercial residential purposes
for, as said owner may elect, either (i) a period terminating upon
his death or the death of his spouse, whichever occurs later, or
(ii) a term of not more than twenty-five years: Provided, That in
no case shall the period or term for which such right of use and
occupancy is retained extend beyond the term of the freehold
interest acquired by the United States. The price payable to the
owner of such property shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
value of the right retained. As used in this subchapter "improved
residential property" means a single-family year-round dwelling,
the construction of which was begun before January 21, 1963, which
dwelling serves as the owner's permanent place of abode at the time
of its acquisition by the United States, together with not more
than three acres of land on which the dwelling and appurtenant
buildings are located which land the Secretary of the Interior or
the Secretary of the Army, as the case may be, finds is reasonably
necessary for the owner's continued use and occupancy of the
dwelling: Provided, further, That whenever an owner of property
elects to retain a right of use and occupancy pursuant to this
subchapter, such owner shall be deemed to have waived any benefits
or rights under the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 [42 U.S.C. 4601 et seq.].
