SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that the conveyance of the Properties described in 
section 4(b) to the Lessees of those Properties for fair market value 
would have the beneficial results of--
            (1) reducing Pick-Sloan project debt for the Canyon Ferry 
        Unit;
            (2) providing a permanent source of funding for projects 
        that develop and maintain public recreation, and that conserve 
        and enhance fish and wildlife opportunities in the State of 
        Montana;
            (3) reducing Federal payments in lieu of taxes and 
        associated management expenditures in connection with the 
        Government's ownership of the Properties while increasing local 
        tax revenues from the new owners; and
            (4) eliminating expensive and contentious disputes between 
        the Secretary and leaseholders while ensuring that the Federal 
        Government receives full and fair value for the acquisition of 
        the Properties.
