SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``National Park Service 100th 
Anniversary Commemorative Coin Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) in 1916, Congress established the National Park Service 
        as a bureau within the Department of the Interior to administer 
        the great national parks and monuments in the United States as 
        a unified National Park System;
            (2) from 1916 to the present, the National Park System has 
        grown from 37 park units with 6,000,000 acres of land in the 
        western United States to more than 395 units with 84,000,000 
        acres of land in nearly every State and territory;
            (3) the responsibilities of the National Park Service have 
        expanded to include--
                    (A) managing national historic trails and national 
                scenic trails;
                    (B) administering wild and scenic rivers;
                    (C) recognizing the most significant historic 
                resources in the United States through the National 
                Register of Historic Places and the National Historic 
                Landmark program;
                    (D) providing historic preservation grants; and
                    (E) assisting communities in meeting their 
                preservation, conservation, and recreation needs;
            (4) the National Park Service Organic Act of 1916 (Public 
        Law 64-408, 39 Stat. 535), which established the National Park 
        Service, remains the preeminent law guiding the management of 
        parks and articulating the core mission of the National Park 
        Service, ``to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic 
        objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the 
        enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will 
        leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future 
        generations'';
            (5) the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service in 
        2016 will be an occasion to celebrate a century of American 
        vision and achievement in identifying and preserving the 
        special places in the United States for the benefit of all, and 
        the culmination of 100 years of accomplishments by the 
        employees, partners, and volunteers of the National Park 
        Service;
            (6) 2016 also will mark the beginning of the 2d century of 
        service of the dedicated employees, partners, and volunteers of 
        the National Park Service to the people of the United States as 
        environmental leaders and vigilant stewards of the treasured 
        places and stories of the United States;
            (7) coins commemorating the 100th anniversary of the 
        National Park Service will bring national and international 
        attention to the National Park System and to the legacy 
        Congress left in 1916 when it established a Federal agency to 
        ensure the protection of the most treasured natural and 
        cultural resources in the United States for all time; and
            (8) the proceeds from a surcharge on the sale of 
        commemorative coins will assist the financing of the needs of 
        the parks and programs of the National Park Service, helping to 
        ensure that the great natural and cultural resources of the 
        United States will endure for generations to come.
