SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Crow Creek Sioux Tribe 
Infrastructure Development Trust Fund Act of 1996''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
        (1) the Congress approved the Pick-Sloan Missouri River basin 
    program by passing the Act of December 22, 1944, commonly known as 
    the ``Flood Control Act of 1944'' (58 Stat. 887, chapter 665; 33 
    U.S.C. 701-1 et seq.)--
            (A) to promote the general economic development of the 
        United States;
            (B) to provide for irrigation above Sioux City, Iowa;
            (C) to protect urban and rural areas from devastating 
        floods of the Missouri River; and
            (D) for other purposes;
        (2) the Fort Randall and Big Bend projects are major components 
    of the Pick-Sloan program, and contribute to the national economy 
    by generating a substantial amount of hydropower and impounding a 
    substantial quantity of water;
        (3) the Fort Randall and Big Bend projects overlie the western 
    boundary of the Crow Creek Indian Reservation, having inundated the 
    fertile, wooded bottom lands of the Tribe along the Missouri River 
    that constituted the most productive agricultural and pastoral 
    lands of the Crow Creek Sioux Tribe and the homeland of the members 
    of the Tribe;
        (4) Public Law 85-916 (72 Stat. 1766 et seq.) authorized the 
    acquisition of 9,418 acres of Indian land on the Crow Creek Indian 
    Reservation for the Fort Randall project and Public Law 87-735 (76 
    Stat. 704 et seq.) authorized the acquisition of 6,179 acres of 
    Indian land on Crow Creek for the Big Bend project;
        (5) Public Law 87-735 (76 Stat. 704 et seq.) provided for the 
    mitigation of the effects of the Fort Randall and Big Bend projects 
    on the Crow Creek Indian Reservation, by directing the Secretary of 
    the Army to--
            (A) replace, relocate, or reconstruct--
                (i) any existing essential governmental and agency 
            facilities on the reservation, including schools, 
            hospitals, offices of the Public Health Service and the 
            Bureau of Indian Affairs, service buildings, and employee 
            quarters; and
                (ii) roads, bridges, and incidental matters or 
            facilities in connection with such facilities;
            (B) provide for a townsite adequate for 50 homes, including 
        streets and utilities (including water, sewage, and 
        electricity), taking into account the reasonable future growth 
        of the townsite; and
            (C) provide for a community center containing space and 
        facilities for community gatherings, tribal offices, tribal 
        council chamber, offices of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, 
        offices and quarters of the Public Health Service, and a 
        combination gymnasium and auditorium;
        (6) the requirements under Public Law 87-735 (76 Stat. 704 et 
    seq.) with respect to the mitigation of the effects of the Fort 
    Randall and Big Bend projects on the Crow Creek Indian Reservation 
    have not been fulfilled;
        (7) although the national economy has benefited from the Fort 
    Randall and Big Bend projects, the economy on the Crow Creek Indian 
    Reservation remains underdeveloped, in part as a consequence of the 
    failure of the Federal Government to fulfill the obligations of the 
    Federal Government under the laws referred to in paragraph (4);
        (8) the economic and social development and cultural 
    preservation of the Crow Creek Sioux Tribe will be enhanced by 
    increased tribal participation in the benefits of the Fort Randall 
    and Big Bend components of the Pick-Sloan program; and
        (9) the Crow Creek Sioux Tribe is entitled to additional 
    benefits of the Pick-Sloan Missouri River basin program.
