    Sec. 1271. Congressional declaration of policy

-STATUTE-
      It is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States that
    certain selected rivers of the Nation which, with their immediate
    environments, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic,
    recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural, or
    other similar values, shall be preserved in free-flowing condition,
    and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected
    for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations.
    The Congress declares that the established national policy of dam
    and other construction at appropriate sections of the rivers of the
    United States needs to be complemented by a policy that would
    preserve other selected rivers or sections thereof in their free-
    flowing condition to protect the water quality of such rivers and
    to fulfill other vital national conservation purposes.

    Sec. 1273. National wild and scenic rivers system

-STATUTE-
    (a) Composition; application; publication in Federal Register;
      expense; administration of federally owned lands
      The national wild and scenic rivers system shall comprise rivers
    (i) that are authorized for inclusion therein by Act of Congress,
    or (ii) that are designated as wild, scenic or recreational rivers
    by or pursuant to an act of the legislature of the State or States
    through which they flow, that are to be permanently administered as
    wild, scenic or recreational rivers by an agency or political
    subdivision of the State or States concerned that are found by the
    Secretary of the Interior, upon application of the Governor of the
    State or the Governors of the States concerned, or a person or
    persons thereunto duly appointed by him or them, to meet the
    criteria established in this chapter and such criteria
    supplementary thereto as he may prescribe, and that are approved by
    him for inclusion in the system, including, upon application of the
    Governor of the State concerned, the Allagash Wilderness Waterway,
    Maine; that segment of the Wolf River, Wisconsin, which flows
    through Langlade County; and that segment of the New River in North
    Carolina extending from its confluence with Dog Creek downstream
    approximately 26.5 miles to the Virginia State line. Upon receipt
    of an application under clause (ii) of this subsection, the
    Secretary shall notify the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and
    publish such application in the Federal Register. Each river
    designated under clause (ii) shall be administered by the State or
    political subdivision thereof without expense to the United States
    other than for administration and management of federally owned
    lands. For purposes of the preceding sentence, amounts made
    available to any State or political subdivision under the Land and
    Water Conservation Act of 1965 [16 U.S.C. 460l-4 et seq.] or any
    other provision of law shall not be treated as an expense to the
    United States. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to
    provide for the transfer to, or administration by, a State or local
    authority of any federally owned lands which are within the
    boundaries of any river included within the system under clause
    (ii).
    (b) Classification, designation, and administration of rivers
      A wild, scenic or recreational river area eligible to be included
    in the system is a free-flowing stream and the related adjacent
    land area that possesses one or more of the values referred to in
    section 1271 of this title. Every wild, scenic or recreational
    river in its free-flowing condition, or upon restoration to this
    condition, shall be considered eligible for inclusion in the
    national wild and scenic rivers system and, if included, shall be
    classified, designated, and administered as one of the following:
        (1) Wild river areas - Those rivers or sections of rivers that
      are free of impoundments and generally inaccessible except by
      trail, with watersheds or shorelines essentially primitive and
      waters unpolluted. These represent vestiges of primitive America.
        (2) Scenic river areas - Those rivers or sections of rivers
      that are free of impoundments, with shorelines or watersheds
      still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but
      accessible in places by roads.
        (3) Recreational river areas - Those rivers or sections of
      rivers that are readily accessible by road or railroad, that may
      have some development along their shorelines, and that may have
      undergone some impoundment or diversion in the past.

-HEAD-
    Sec. 1275. Additions to national wild and scenic rivers system

-STATUTE-
    (a) Reports by Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture;
      recommendations to Congress; contents of reports
      The Secretary of the Interior or, where national forest lands are
    involved, the Secretary of Agriculture or, in appropriate cases,
    the two Secretaries jointly shall study and submit to the President
    reports on the suitability or nonsuitability for addition to the
    national wild and scenic rivers system of rivers which are
    designated herein or hereafter by the Congress as potential
    additions to such system. The President shall report to the
    Congress his recommendations and proposals with respect to the
    designation of each such river or section thereof under this
    chapter. Such studies shall be completed and such reports shall be
    made to the Congress with respect to all rivers named in section
    1276(a) (1) through (27) of this title no later than October 2,
    1978. In conducting these studies the Secretary of the Interior and
    the Secretary of Agriculture shall give priority to those rivers
    (i) with respect to which there is the greatest likelihood of
    developments which, if undertaken, would render the rivers
    unsuitable for inclusion in the national wild and scenic rivers
    system, and (ii) which possess the greatest proportion of private
    lands within their areas. Every such study and plan shall be
    coordinated with any water resources planning involving the same
    river which is being conducted pursuant to the Water Resources
    Planning Act [42 U.S.C. 1962 et seq.].
      Each report, including maps and illustrations, shall show among
    other things the area included within the report; the
    characteristics which do or do not make the area a worthy addition
    to the system; the current status of land ownership and use in the
    area; the reasonably foreseeable potential uses of the land and
    water which would be enhanced, foreclosed, or curtailed if the area
    were included in the national wild and scenic rivers system; the
    Federal agency (which in the case of a river which is wholly or
    substantially within a national forest, shall be the Department of
    Agriculture) by which it is proposed the area, should it be added
    to the system, be administered; the extent to which it is proposed
    that such administration, including the costs thereof, be shared by
    State and local agencies; and the estimated cost to the United
    States of acquiring necessary lands and interests in land and of
    administering the area, should it be added to the system. Each such
    report shall be printed as a Senate or House document.
    (b) Study of report by affected Federal and State officials;
      recommendations and comments; transmittal to President and
      Congress
      Before submitting any such report to the President and the
    Congress, copies of the proposed report shall, unless it was
    prepared jointly by the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary
    of Agriculture, be submitted by the Secretary of the Interior to
    the Secretary of Agriculture or by the Secretary of Agriculture to
    the Secretary of the Interior, as the case may be, and to the
    Secretary of the Army, the Secretary of Energy, the head of any
    other affected Federal department or agency and, unless the lands
    proposed to be included in the area are already owned by the United
    States or have already been authorized for acquisition by Act of
    Congress, the Governor of the State or States in which they are
    located or an officer designated by the Governor to receive the
    same. Any recommendations or comments on the proposal which the
    said officials furnish the Secretary or Secretaries who prepared
    the report within ninety days of the date on which the report is
    submitted to them, together with the Secretary's or Secretaries'
    comments thereon, shall be included with the transmittal to the
    President and the Congress.
    (c) Publication in Federal Register
      Before approving or disapproving for inclusion in the national
    wild and scenic rivers system any river designated as a wild,
    scenic or recreational river by or pursuant to an act of a State
    legislature, the Secretary of the Interior shall submit the
    proposal to the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary of the
    Army, the Secretary of Energy, and the head of any other affected
    Federal department or agency and shall evaluate and give due weight
    to any recommendations or comments which the said officials furnish
    him within ninety days of the date on which it is submitted to
    them. If he approves the proposed inclusion, he shall publish
    notice thereof in the Federal Register.
    (d) Areas comprised by boundaries; scope of study report
      The boundaries of any river proposed in section 1276(a) of this
    title for potential addition to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers
    System shall generally comprise that area measured within one-
    quarter mile from the ordinary high water mark on each side of the
    river. In the case of any designated river, prior to publication of
    boundaries pursuant to section 1274(b) of this title, the
    boundaries also shall comprise the same area. This subsection shall
    not be construed to limit the possible scope of the study report to
    address areas which may lie more than one-quarter mile from the
    ordinary high water mark on each side of the river.

    CHAPTER 28 - WILD AND SCENIC RIVERS

-HEAD-
    Sec. 1277. Land acquisition

-STATUTE-
    (a) Grant of authority to acquire; State and Indian lands; use of
      appropriated funds; acquisition of tracts partially outside
      component boundaries; disposition of lands
      (1) The Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of
    Agriculture are each authorized to acquire lands and interests in
    land within the authorized boundaries of any component of the
    national wild and scenic rivers system designated in section 1274
    of this title, or hereafter designated for inclusion in the system
    by Act of Congress, which is administered by him, but he shall not
    acquire fee title to an average of more than 100 acres per mile on
    both sides of the river. Lands owned by a State may be acquired
    only by donation or by exchange in accordance with subsection (d)
    of this section. Lands owned by an Indian tribe or a political
    subdivision of a State may not be acquired without the consent of
    the appropriate governing body thereof as long as the Indian tribe
    or political subdivision is following a plan for management and
    protection of the lands which the Secretary finds protects the land
    and assures its use for purposes consistent with this chapter.
    Money appropriated for Federal purposes from the land and water
    conservation fund shall, without prejudice to the use of
    appropriations from other sources, be available to Federal
    departments and agencies for the acquisition of property for the
    purposes of this chapter.
      (2) When a tract of land lies partially within and partially
    outside the boundaries of a component of the National Wild and
    Scenic Rivers System, the appropriate Secretary may, with the
    consent of the landowners for the portion outside the boundaries,
    acquire the entire tract. The land or interest therein so acquired
    outside the boundaries shall not be counted against the average one-
    hundred-acre-per-mile fee title limitation of subsection (a)(1) of
    this section. The lands or interests therein outside such
    boundaries, shall be disposed of, consistent with existing
    authorities of law, by sale, lease, or exchange.
    (b) Curtailment of condemnation power in area 50 per centum or more
      of which is owned in fee title by Federal or State government
      If 50 per centum or more of the entire acreage outside the
    ordinary high water mark on both sides of the river within a
    federally administered wild, scenic or recreational river area is
    owned in fee title by the United States, by the State or States
    within which it lies, or by political subdivisions of those States,
    neither Secretary shall acquire fee title to any lands by
    condemnation under authority of this chapter. Nothing contained in
    this section, however, shall preclude the use of condemnation when
    necessary to clear title or to acquire scenic easements or such
    other easements as are reasonably necessary to give the public
    access to the river and to permit its members to traverse the
    length of the area or of selected segments thereof.
    (c) Curtailment of condemnation power in urban areas covered by
      valid and satisfactory zoning ordinances
      Neither the Secretary of the Interior nor the Secretary of
    Agriculture may acquire lands by condemnation, for the purpose of
    including such lands in any national wild, scenic or recreational
    river area, if such lands are located within any incorporated city,
    village, or borough which has in force and applicable to such lands
    a duly adopted, valid zoning ordinance that conforms with the
    purposes of this chapter. In order to carry out the provisions of
    this subsection the appropriate Secretary shall issue guidelines,
    specifying standards for local zoning ordinances, which are
    consistent with the purposes of this chapter. The standards
    specified in such guidelines shall have the object of (A)
    prohibiting new commercial or industrial uses other than commercial
    or industrial uses which are consistent with the purposes of this
    chapter, and (B) the protection of the bank lands by means of
    acreage, frontage, and setback requirements on development.
    (d) Exchange of property
      The appropriate Secretary is authorized to accept title to non-
    Federal property within the authorized boundaries of any federally
    administered component of the national wild and scenic rivers
    system designated in section 1274 of this title or hereafter
    designated for inclusion in the system by Act of Congress and, in
    exchange therefor, convey to the grantor any federally owned
    property which is under his jurisdiction within the State in which
    the component lies and which he classifies as suitable for exchange
    or other disposal. The values of the properties so exchanged either
    shall be approximately equal or, if they are not approximately
    equal, shall be equalized by the payment of cash to the grantor or
    to the Secretary as the circumstances require.
    (e) Transfer of jurisdiction over federally owned property to
      appropriate Secretary
      The head of any Federal department or agency having
    administrative jurisdiction over any lands or interests in land
    within the authorized boundaries of any federally administered
    component of the national wild and scenic rivers system designated
    in section 1274 of this title or hereafter designated for inclusion
    in the system by Act of Congress is authorized to transfer to the
    appropriate secretary jurisdiction over such lands for
    administration in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
    Lands acquired by or transferred to the Secretary of Agriculture
    for the purposes of this chapter within or adjacent to a national
    forest shall upon such acquisition or transfer become national
    forest lands.
    (f) Acceptance of donated land, funds, and other property
      The appropriate Secretary is authorized to accept donations of
    lands and interests in land, funds, and other property for use in
    connection with his administration of the national wild and scenic
    rivers system.
    (g) Retained right of use and occupancy; termination; fair market
      value; "improved property" defined
      (1) Any owner or owners (hereinafter in this subsection referred
    to as "owner") of improved property on the date of its acquisition,
    may retain for themselves and their successors or assigns a right
    of use and occupancy of the improved property for noncommercial
    residential purposes for a definite term not to exceed twenty-five
    years or, in lieu thereof, for a term ending at the death of the
    owner, or the death of his spouse, or the death of either or both
    of them. The owner shall elect the term to be reserved. The
    appropriate Secretary shall pay to the owner the fair market value
    of the property on the date of such acquisition less the fair
    market value on such date of the right retained by the owner.
      (2) A right of use and occupancy retained pursuant to this
    subsection shall be subject to termination whenever the appropriate
    Secretary is given reasonable cause to find that such use and
    occupancy is being exercised in a manner which conflicts with the
    purposes of this chapter. In the event of such a finding, the
    Secretary shall tender to the holder of that right an amount equal
    to the fair market value of that portion of the right which remains
    unexpired on the date of termination. Such right of use or
    occupancy shall terminate by operation of law upon tender of the
    fair market price.
      (3) The term "improved property", as used in this chapter, means
    a detached, one-family dwelling (hereinafter referred to as
    "dwelling"), the construction of which was begun before January 1,
    1967, (except where a different date is specifically provided by
    law with respect to any particular river) together with so much of
    the land on which the dwelling is situated, the said land being in
    the same ownership as the dwelling, as the appropriate Secretary
    shall designate to be reasonably necessary for the enjoyment of the
    dwelling for the sole purpose of noncommercial residential use,
    together with any structures accessory to the dwelling which are
    situated on the land so designated.

    Sec. 1278. Restrictions on water resources projects

-STATUTE-
    (a) Construction projects licensed by Federal Energy Regulatory
      Commission
      The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission shall not license the
    construction of any dam, water conduit, reservoir, powerhouse,
    transmission line, or other project works under the Federal Power
    Act (41 Stat. 1063), as amended (16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.), on or
    directly affecting any river which is designated in section 1274 of
    this title as a component of the national wild and scenic rivers
    system or which is hereafter designated for inclusion in that
    system, and no department or agency of the United States shall
    assist by loan, grant, license, or otherwise in the construction of
    any water resources project that would have a direct and adverse
    effect on the values for which such river was established, as
    determined by the Secretary charged with its administration.
    Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence, however, shall
    preclude licensing of, or assistance to, developments below or
    above a wild, scenic or recreational river area or on any stream
    tributary thereto which will not invade the area or unreasonably
    diminish the scenic, recreational, and fish and wildlife values
    present in the area on the date of designation of a river as a
    component of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. No
    department or agency of the United States shall recommend
    authorization of any water resources project that would have a
    direct and adverse effect on the values for which such river was
    established, as determined by the Secretary charged with its
    administration, or request appropriations to begin construction of
    any such project, whether heretofore or hereafter authorized,
    without advising the Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of
    Agriculture, as the case may be, in writing of its intention so to
    do at least sixty days in advance, and without specifically
    reporting to the Congress in writing at the time it makes its
    recommendation or request in what respect construction of such
    project would be in conflict with the purposes of this chapter and
    would affect the component and the values to be protected by it
    under this chapter. Any license heretofore or hereafter issued by
    the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission affecting the New River of
    North Carolina shall continue to be effective only for that portion
    of the river which is not included in the National Wild and Scenic
    Rivers System pursuant to section 1273 of this title and no project
    or undertaking so licensed shall be permitted to invade, inundate
    or otherwise adversely affect such river segment.
    (b) Construction projects on rivers designated for potential
      addition to system
      The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission shall not license the
    construction of any dam, water conduit, reservoir, powerhouse,
    transmission line, or other project works under the Federal Power
    Act, as amended [16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.], on or directly affecting
    any river which is listed in section 1276(a) of this title, and no
    department or agency of the United States shall assist by loan,
    grant, license, or otherwise in the construction of any water
    resources project that would have a direct and adverse effect on
    the values for which such river might be designated, as determined
    by the Secretary responsible for its study or approval - 
        (i) during the ten-year period following October 2, 1968, or
      for a three complete fiscal year period following any Act of
      Congress designating any river for potential addition to the
      national wild and scenic rivers system, whichever is later,
      unless, prior to the expiration of the relevant period, the
      Secretary of the Interior and, where national forest lands are
      involved, the Secretary of Agriculture, on the basis of study,
      determine that such river should not be included in the national
      wild and scenic rivers system and notify the Committee on Energy
      and Natural Resources of the Senate and the Committee on Natural
      Resources of the House of Representatives, in writing, including
      a copy of the study upon which the determination was made, at
      least one hundred and eighty days while Congress is in session
      prior to publishing notice to that effect in the Federal
      Register: Provided, That if any Act designating any river or
      rivers for potential addition to the national wild and scenic
      rivers system provides a period for the study or studies which
      exceeds such three complete fiscal year period the period
      provided for in such Act shall be substituted for the three
      complete fiscal year period in the provisions of this clause (i);
      and
        (ii) during such interim period from the date a report is due
      and the time a report is actually submitted to the Congress; and
        (iii) during such additional period thereafter as, in the case
      of any river the report for which is submitted to the President
      and the Congress, is necessary for congressional consideration
      thereof or, in the case of any river recommended to the Secretary
      of the Interior for inclusion in the national wild and scenic
      rivers system under section 1273(a)(ii) of this title, is
      necessary for the Secretary's consideration thereof, which
      additional period, however, shall not exceed three years in the
      first case and one year in the second.

    Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence, however, shall
    preclude licensing of, or assistance to, developments below or
    above a potential wild, scenic or recreational river area or on any
    stream tributary thereto which will not invade the area or diminish
    the scenic, recreational, and fish and wildlife values present in
    the potential wild, scenic or recreational river area on the date
    of designation of a river for study as provided for in section 1276
    of this title. No department or agency of the United States shall,
    during the periods hereinbefore specified, recommend authorization
    of any water resources project on any such river or request
    appropriations to begin construction of any such project, whether
    heretofore or hereafter authorized, without advising the Secretary
    of the Interior and, where national forest lands are involved, the
    Secretary of Agriculture in writing of its intention so to do at
    least sixty days in advance of doing so and without specifically
    reporting to the Congress in writing at the time it makes its
    recommendation or request in what respect construction of such
    project would be in conflict with the purposes of this chapter and
    would affect the component and the values to be protected by it
    under this chapter.
    (c) Activities in progress affecting river of system; notice to
      Secretary
      The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and all other Federal
    agencies shall, promptly upon enactment of this chapter, inform the
    Secretary of the Interior and, where national forest lands are
    involved, the Secretary of Agriculture, of any proceedings,
    studies, or other activities within their jurisdiction which are
    now in progress and which affect or may affect any of the rivers
    specified in section 1276(a) of this title. They shall likewise
    inform him of any such proceedings, studies, or other activities
    which are hereafter commenced or resumed before they are commenced
    or resumed.
    (d) Grants under Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965
      Nothing in this section with respect to the making of a loan or
    grant shall apply to grants made under the Land and Water

      and all mining operations and other activities under a mineral
      lease, license, or permit issued or renewed after inclusion of a
      component in the system shall be subject to such regulations as
      the Secretary of the Interior or, in the case of national forest
      lands, the Secretary of Agriculture may prescribe to effectuate

    (a) Public use and enjoyment of components; protection of features;
      management plans
      Each component of the national wild and scenic rivers system
    shall be administered in such manner as to protect and enhance the
    values which caused it to be included in said system without,
    insofar as is consistent therewith, limiting other uses that do not
    substantially interfere with public use and enjoyment of these
    values. In such administration primary emphasis shall be given to
    protecting its esthetic, scenic, historic, archeologic, and
    scientific features. Management plans for any such component may
    establish varying degrees of intensity for its protection and
    development, based on the special attributes of the area.
    (b) Wilderness areas
      Any portion of a component of the national wild and scenic rivers
    system that is within the national wilderness preservation system,
    as established by or pursuant to the Wilderness Act [16 U.S.C. 1131
    et seq.], shall be subject to the provisions of both the Wilderness
    Act and this chapter with respect to preservation of such river and
    its immediate environment, and in case of conflict between the
    provisions of the Wilderness Act and this chapter the more
    restrictive provisions shall apply.
    (c) Areas administered by National Park Service and Fish and
      Wildlife Service
      Any component of the national wild and scenic rivers system that
    is administered by the Secretary of the Interior through the
    National Park Service shall become a part of the national park
    system, and any such component that is administered by the
    Secretary through the Fish and Wildlife Service shall become a part
    of the national wildlife refuge system. The lands involved shall be
    subject to the provisions of this chapter and the Acts under which
    the national park system or national wildlife system, as the case
    may be, is administered, and in case of conflict between the
    provisions of this chapter and such Acts, the more restrictive
    provisions shall apply. The Secretary of the Interior, in his
    administration of any component of the national wild and scenic
    rivers system, may utilize such general statutory authorities
    relating to areas of the national park system and such general
    statutory authorities otherwise available to him for recreation and
    preservation purposes and for the conservation and management of
    natural resources as he deems appropriate to carry out the purposes
    of this chapter.
    (d) Statutory authorities relating to national forests
      The Secretary of Agriculture, in his administration of any
    component of the national wild and scenic rivers system area, may
    utilize the general statutory authorities relating to the national
    forests in such manner as he deems appropriate to carry out the
    purposes of this chapter.
    (e) Cooperative agreements with State and local governments
      The Federal agency charged with the administration of any
    component of the national wild and scenic rivers system may enter
    into written cooperative agreements with the Governor of a State,
    the head of any State agency, or the appropriate official of a
    political subdivision of a State for State or local governmental
    participation in the administration of the component. The States
    and their political subdivisions shall be encouraged to cooperate
    in the planning and administration of components of the system
    which include or adjoin State- or county-owned lands.

    (a) Fish and wildlife
      Nothing in this chapter shall affect the jurisdiction or
    responsibilities of the States with respect to fish and wildlife.
    Hunting and fishing shall be permitted on lands and waters
    administered as parts of the system under applicable State and
    Federal laws and regulations unless, in the case of hunting, those
    lands or waters are within a national park or monument. The
    administering Secretary may, however, designate zones where, and
    establish periods when, no hunting is permitted for reasons of
    public safety, administration, or public use and enjoyment and
    shall issue appropriate regulations after consultation with the
    wildlife agency of the State or States affected.
    (b) Compensation for water rights
      The jurisdiction of the States and the United States over waters
    of any stream included in a national wild, scenic or recreation
    river area shall be determined by established principles of law.
    Under the provisions of this chapter, any taking by the United
    States of a water right which is vested under either State or
    Federal law at the time such river is included in the national wild
    and scenic rivers system shall entitle the owner thereof to just
    compensation. Nothing in this chapter shall constitute an express
    or implied claim or denial on the part of the Federal Government as
    to exemption from State water laws.
    (c) Reservation of waters for other purposes or in unnecessary
      quantities prohibited
      Designation of any stream or portion thereof as a national wild,
    scenic or recreational river area shall not be construed as a
    reservation of the waters of such streams for purposes other than
    those specified in this chapter, or in quantities greater than
    necessary to accomplish these purposes.
    (d) State jurisdiction over included streams
      The jurisdiction of the States over waters of any stream included
    in a national wild, scenic or recreational river area shall be
    unaffected by this chapter to the extent that such jurisdiction may
    be exercised without impairing the purposes of this chapter or its
    administration.
    (e) Interstate compacts
      Nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed to alter,
    amend, repeal, interpret, modify, or be in conflict with any
    interstate compact made by any States which contain any portion of
    the national wild and scenic rivers system.
    (f) Rights of access to streams
      Nothing in this chapter shall affect existing rights of any
    State, including the right of access, with respect to the beds of
    navigable streams, tributaries, or rivers (or segments thereof)
    located in a national wild, scenic or recreational river area.
    (g) Easements and rights-of-way
      The Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of Agriculture, as
    the case may be, may grant easements and rights-of-way upon, over,
    under, across, or through any component of the national wild and
    scenic rivers system in accordance with the laws applicable to the
    national park system and the national forest system, respectively:
    Provided, That any conditions precedent to granting such easements
    and rights-of-way shall be related to the policy and purpose of
    this chapter.

    Sec. 1286. Definitions

-STATUTE-
      As used in this chapter, the term - 
      (a) "River" means a flowing body of water or estuary or a
    section, portion, or tributary thereof, including rivers, streams,
    creeks, runs, kills, rills, and small lakes.
      (b) "Free-flowing", as applied to any river or section of a
    river, means existing or flowing in natural condition without
    impoundment, diversion, straightening, rip-rapping, or other
    modification of the waterway. The existence, however, of low dams,
    diversion works, and other minor structures at the time any river
    is proposed for inclusion in the national wild and scenic rivers
    system shall not automatically bar its consideration for such
    inclusion: Provided, That this shall not be construed to authorize,
    intend, or encourage future construction of such structures within
    components of the national wild and scenic rivers system.
      (c) "Scenic easement" means the right to control the use of land
    (including the air space above such land) within the authorized
    boundaries of a component of the wild and scenic rivers system, for
    the purpose of protecting the natural qualities of a designated
    wild, scenic or recreational river area, but such control shall not
    affect, without the owner's consent, any regular use exercised
    prior to the acquisition of the easement. For any designated wild
    and scenic river, the appropriate Secretary shall treat the
    acquisition of fee title with the reservation of regular existing
    uses to the owner as a scenic easement for purposes of this
    chapter. Such an acquisition shall not constitute fee title
    ownership for purposes of section 1277(b) of this title.
