Sec. 460q-1. Acquisition of property

-STATUTE-
(a) Authority of Secretary concerned; manner and place; concurrence
of State owner; transfer from Federal agency to administrative
jurisdiction of appropriate Secretary; limitation of acquisition
of easements during existence of zoning ordinance; uniform policy
considerations
Within the boundaries of the portion of the recreation area under
his jurisdiction and outside such boundaries when required for the
construction or improvement of access roads thereto, each Secretary
is authorized to acquire lands, waters, or other property, or any
interest therein, in such manner, including exchange as hereinafter
provided, as he considers to be in the public interest to carry out
the purposes of this subchapter. In connection with any such
acquisition, each Secretary may permit the grantor a reservation of
all or any part of the minerals or of any other interest or right
of use in such lands or waters on such terms and conditions as the
Secretary may deem appropriate. Any property or interest therein
owned by the State of California or any political subdivision
thereof within the recreation area may be acquired under the
authority of this subchapter only with the concurrence of the
owner. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any Federal
property located within the recreation area may, with the
concurrence of the agency having custody thereof, be transferred
without consideration to the administrative jurisdiction of the
appropriate Secretary for use by him in carrying out the purposes
of this subchapter.
The Secretary of the Interior, in order to assure public access
to Clear Creek and to provide hiking and horseback riding trails
for the public, may, as he deems necessary for these purposes
acquire such easements or other interests on either or both sides
of Clear Creek between the south boundary of the Whiskeytown unit
and the highway at Igo, California.
The Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to acquire scenic
easements or such other interests, including ownership of the land
therein, as he determines to be appropriate to protect and assure
the appearance of a strip of land not to exceed six hundred and
sixty feet on each side of the centerline of Federal Aid Secondary
Highway Numbered 1089 between the points where said highway crosses
the south line of sections 19 and 20, township 35 north, range 8
west, and where it crosses the south line of section 18, township
36 north, range 7 west, on the northwesterly side of the Clair
Engle-Lewiston unit: Provided, That such easements or interests
shall not be acquired without the consent of the owners so long as
the appropriate local zoning agency shall have in force and
applicable to such property a duly adopted, valid, zoning ordinance
that, in the judgment of the Secretary of Agriculture, conforms to
the zoning standards set forth in regulations issued pursuant to
subsection (e) of this section.
The two Secretaries shall engage in mutual consultation with
respect to such acquisition and to exchange transactions so as to
promote uniform policies therefor insofar as practicable, taking
into consideration the purposes of the recreation area as a whole,
the responsibility of the Secretary of the Interior for the
administration of federally owned minerals and of the Central
Valley project, and the responsibility of the Secretary of
Agriculture for the administration of national forests.
(b) Exchange of property; cash equalization payments; value of
mineral interests
When the public interests will be benefited thereby, the
Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture are each
authorized to accept title to any non-Federal property within any
part of the recreation area and in exchange therefor convey to the
grantor of such property any federally owned property under his
jurisdiction within the State of California which he classifies as
suitable for exchange or other disposal, notwithstanding any other
provision of law. The properties so exchanged shall be
approximately equal in fair market value: Provided, That the
Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of Agriculture, as the
case may be, may accept cash from or pay cash to the grantor in
such exchange in order to equalize the value of the properties
exchanged. The Secretary of Agriculture shall obtain the
concurrence of the Secretary of the Interior with respect to the
value of any mineral interests in any such exchange proposed to be
made by the Secretary of Agriculture.
(c) Reservation of use and occupancy of improved property for
noncommercial residential purposes; term; valuation
Any owner or owners of improved residential property on the date
of its acquisition by either Secretary may, as a condition to such
acquisition, retain the right of use and occupancy of the property
by himself and members of his immediate family for noncommercial
residential purposes for a term ending at the death of such owner,
the death of his spouse, or the day his last surviving child
reaches the age of thirty, whichever is the latest. The value of
the right retained shall be taken into consideration by the
respective Secretary in determining the value of the property being
acquired.
(d) Limitation of acquisition of improved property during existence
of zoning ordinance; "improved property" defined
Privately owned "improved property" or interests therein shall
not be acquired under this subchapter without the consent of the
owner so long as an appropriate local zoning agency shall have in
force and applicable to such property a duly adopted, valid, zoning
ordinance that is approved by the Secretary having jurisdiction of
the unit wherein the property is located. The term "improved
property" as used in this subchapter shall mean any building or
group of related buildings the actual construction of which was
begun before February 7, 1963, together with not more than three
acres of the land in the same ownership on which the building or
group of buildings is situated: Provided, That the respective
Secretary may exclude from improved property any shore or waters,
together with so much of the land adjoining such shore or waters as
he deems necessary for public access thereto.
(e) Zoning regulations; amendments; standards for ordinances;
commercial or industrial use prohibition; use, acreage, frontage,
setback, density, height, or other requirements; notice of
variances; approval of ordinances
Prior to the approval of any zoning ordinance for the purposes of
this section, the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of
Agriculture shall jointly issue regulations, which may be amended
from time to time, specifying standards for such zoning ordinances.
Standards specified in such regulations shall have the object of
(1) prohibiting new commercial or industrial uses, other than
commercial or industrial uses which the Secretaries consider to be
consistent with the purposes of this subchapter; (2) promoting the
protection and development of properties for purposes of this
subchapter by means of use, acreage, frontage, setback, density,
height, or other requirements; and (3) providing that the
appropriate Secretary shall receive notice of any variance granted
under, or any exception made to, the application of the zoning
ordinance. Following issuance of such regulations, each Secretary
shall approve any zoning ordinance or any amendment to an approved
zoning ordinance submitted to him that conforms to the standards
contained in the regulations in effect at the time of adoption of
the ordinance or amendment. Such approval shall remain effective
for so long as such ordinance or amendment remains in effect as
approved.
(f) Termination of suspension of authority for acquisition without
owner's consent because of nonconforming variances and uses
The suspension of the respective Secretary's authority to acquire
any improved property without the owner's consent shall
automatically cease if (1) such property is made the subject of a
variance or exception to any applicable zoning ordinance that does
not conform to any applicable standard contained in regulations
issued pursuant to this section; or (2) if such property is put to
any use which does not conform to any applicable zoning ordinance.
(g) Certificate of suspension of authority for acquisition without
owner's consent
Each Secretary shall furnish to any party in interest upon
request a certificate indicating the property with respect to which
the Secretary's authority to acquire without the owner's consent is
suspended.
(h) Development plans; certification of Secretary of Agriculture;
suspension of authority for acquisition without owner's consent;
exception
Within the Shasta and Clair Engle-Lewiston units any owner of
unimproved property who proposes to develop his property or a part
thereof for service to the public may submit to the Secretary of
Agriculture a development plan which shall set forth the manner in
which and the time by which the property is to be developed and the
use to which it is proposed to be put. If upon review of such plan
the Secretary determines that the development and use of the
property in the manner prescribed conforms to a zoning ordinance
approved in accordance with the provisions of this section and that
such use and development would serve the purposes of this
subchapter, the Secretary of Agriculture may in his discretion
issue to such owner a certificate to that effect. Upon the issuance
of any such certificate and so long as such property is developed,
maintained, and used in conformity therewith, the authority of the
Secretary of Agriculture to acquire such property or any interest
therein without the consent of the owner shall be suspended. This
subsection shall not apply to any property which the Secretary of
Agriculture determines to be needed for easements and rights-of-way
for access, utilities, or facilities, or for administrative sites,
campgrounds, or other areas needed for use by the United States for
visitors to the national recreation area.
