SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Urban and Rural Disease Prevention

SEC. 2. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) in 1999, 61 percent of adults in the United States were 
        overweight or obese;
            (2) all age, racial, and ethnic groups, and both genders, 
        have experienced increases in the percentage of persons who are 
        overweight or obese;
            (3) each year in the United States, approximately 112,000 
        deaths are associated with obesity;
            (4) overweight and obesity are associated with heart 
        disease, certain types of cancer, type 2 diabetes, stroke, 
        arthritis, breathing problems, and psychological disorders, 
        such as depression;
            (5) in 2000, the economic cost of obesity in the United 
        States was approximately $117,000,000,000;
            (6) it is recommended that American adults accumulate at 
        least 30 minutes, and American children accumulate at least 60 
        minutes, of moderate physical activity most days of the week, 
        though more may be needed to prevent weight gain, to lose 
        weight, or to maintain weight loss;
            (7) less than one-third of American adults engage in these 
        recommended amounts of physical activity;
            (8) 40 percent of adults in the United States do not 
        participate in any leisure-time physical activity;
            (9) physical activity is important in preventing and 
        treating overweight and obesity and is extremely helpful in 
        maintaining weight loss, especially when combined with healthy 
        eating;
            (10) there is a direct positive relationship between the 
        level of individual and community use of public recreational 
        facilities and services, access to and condition of such 
        facilities, and the diversity and quality of services relative 
        to current and potential uses; and
            (11) medical and other research document a direct positive 
        relationship between active recreation and disease prevention 
        and general wellness.

              PROMOTION CENTERS.

                an agreement with the Secretary to obtain or provide a 
                replacement facility that generally provides access to
