    (a) Establishment.--In order to preserve and interpret certain 
elements of railroading, especially steam-operated railroads during the 
period of 1850 to 1950, there is hereby established the Steamtown 
National Historic Site (hereinafter in this title referred to as the 
``historic site''). The purposes of the historic site shall include 
interpretation of the evolution of railroads and their impact on the 
development of this nation, including technological, economic, social, 
and political effects and the relationship of railroads to 
industrialization.
     (b) Boundaries.--The historic site shall consist of the lands and 
interests in lands within the area generally depicted on the map 
entitled ``Boundary Map, Steamtown National Historic Site'', numbered 
STTO-80,000B, and dated June, 1994. The map shall be on file and 
available for public inspection in the offices of the National Park 
Service, Department of the Interior. No revisions may be made in the 
boundary of the historic site, except by Act of Congress.
    (c) Repeal.--Sections 1 through 5 of the Steamtown National 
Historic Site Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-591; 100 Stat. 3341-248-249) 
are hereby repealed.

SEC. 102. ADMINISTRATION.

    The Secretary of the Interior (hereinafter in this title referred 
to as the ``Secretary'') shall administer the historic site in 
accordance with this title and with the provisions of law generally 
applicable to units of the national park system, including the Act 
entitled ``An Act to establish a National Park Service, and for other 
purposes'', approved August 25, 1916 (39 Stat. 535; 16 U.S.C. 1, 2, 3, 
and 4). On or before September 30, 1995, the Secretary shall prepare 
and submit to the Committee on Natural Resources of the United States 
House of Representatives and to the Committee on Energy and Natural 
Resources of the United States Senate a new comprehensive general 
management plan for the historic site. The plan shall be prepared with 
the assistance of nationally recognized experts in railroad management 
and history and shall be consistent with this title, with section 12 of 
the Act of August 18, 1970 (16 U.S.C. 1a-1 through 1a-7) and with other 
applicable provisions of law. The Secretary shall provide for public 
participation and comment in the development of the plan.

SEC. 103. ACQUISITION OF LAND.

    (a) In General.--The Secretary may acquire lands or interests in 
land within the boundaries of the historic site only by donation or by 
purchase with donated funds.
    (b) Contaminated Lands.--The Secretary may not acquire any lands or 
interests in lands for purposes of the historic site unless such lands 
are not contaminated with a hazardous substance or a pollutant or 
contaminant which will require removal or remedial action at the 
expense of the United States. The Secretary shall take such steps as 
are necessary to obtain cost recovery under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Compensation, Response, and Liability Act of 1980 
(Superfund) for any funds of the National Park Service expended, prior 
to the date of the enactment of this Act, on removal or remedial action 
with respect to any contamination of lands within the boundaries of 
historic site. Any such reimbursement shall be credited to 
miscellaneous receipts in the Treasury.

SEC. 104. PARK SERVICE ACTIVITIES.

    (a) In General.--The Secretary shall take such actions as necessary 
and appropriate to administer the historic site, to maintain and 
preserve the facilities at the historic site, to interpret the 
resources of the site and their history to the public, and to provide 
essential services to the public at the historic site.
    (b) Railroad Equipment.--(1) The Secretary shall preserve the 
collection of railroad equipment, including locomotives and rolling 
stock, which is present at the historic site as of the date of 
enactment of this Act. The Secretary may also preserve such equipment 
and essential machinery as is necessary for the maintenance of the 
locomotives and rolling stock. The Secretary may not purchase any 
additional locomotive for operation at the historic site if such 
purchase would result in the operation by the United States at the 
historic site of more locomotives than the number of locomotives 
operating at the site as of June 22, 1994.
    (2) No Federal funds may be expended to provide access between the 
historic site and any structure that is privately owned and operated 
for profit. The Secretary may exchange or purchase appropriate examples 
of locomotives and rolling stock to enhance the site's collection if 
the total number of such equipment does not increase and if all such 
actions are consistent with the general management plan for the 
historic site.
    (3) The Secretary shall dispose of all locomotives and rolling 
stock that are not needed for exchange under paragraph (2), that do not 
meet the criteria of the National Register of Historic Places, and that 
are not necessary for the interpretive activities of the historic site.
    (4) The Secretary shall submit a report to the Congress no later 
than -F-e-b-r-u-a-r-y -3-1-, February 28, 1995 containing an inventory 
of all locomotive and rolling stock at the historic site, a statement 
of the range of historic significance of the components of the 
collection, a statement of how many of each are needed to meet the 
purposes of the historic site, the restoration and repair plans and 
estimates of the Secretary for facilities and equipment at the historic 
site, and a detailed deaccession plan.
    (5) The Secretary shall, to the extent practicable, seek donations 
and assistance from volunteers and other cost-sharing methods to 
restore the locomotives and rolling stock.
    (c) Artifacts and Archival Materials.--The Secretary shall preserve 
the artifact collection and archival materials located at the site.
    (d) Excursions.--To the extent that it furthers public 
understanding, and provided that appropriate interpretation is 
provided, the Secretary may provide a regular excursion from Scranton, 
Pennsylvania, to Moscow, Pennsylvania. For purposes of such excursions, 
the Secretary may provide essential visitor services at Moscow, 
Pennsylvania. The Secretary may not expend funds of the National Park 
Service for the restoration or maintenance of tracks, bridges or 
tunnels located outside the historic site, except that the Secretary 
may use funds appropriated prior to November 15, 1991 for restoration 
of tracks and bridges between the historic site and Moscow, 
Pennsylvania, pursuant to a cooperative agreement to be entered into 
between the Secretary and the owner of such tracks and bridges 
permitting the National Park Service to use such tracks and bridges for 
excursions authorized under this section. The Secretary may pay 
customary and appropriate track usage fees and may also provide 
additional special excursions if no such excursion is longer than 60
