            To regulate fishing in certain waters of Alaska.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. DESCENDANTS' LAND USE.

    (a) In General.--Local residents who are descendants of Katmai 
residents who lived in the Naknek Lake and River Drainage shall be 
permitted, subject to reasonable regulations established by the 
Secretary of the Interior, to continue their traditional fishery for 
red fish within Katmai National Park (the national park and national 
preserve redesignated, established, and expanded under section 202(2) 
of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 
410hh-1)).
    (b) Red Fish Defined.--For the purposes of subsection (a), the term 
``red fish'' means spawned-out sockeye salmon that has no significant 
commercial value.

SEC. 2. EFFECT ON TITLE AND JURISDICTION OF TIDAL AND SUBMERGED LANDS.

    (a) Title.--No provision of this Act shall be construed to 
invalidate or validate or in any other way affect any claim by the 
State of Alaska to title to any or all submerged lands, nor shall any 
actions taken pursuant to or in accordance with this Act operate under 
any provision or principle of the law to bar the State of Alaska from 
asserting at any time its claim of title to any or all of the submerged 
lands.
    (b) Jurisdiction.--Nothing in this Act nor in any actions taken 
pursuant to this Act shall be construed as expanding or diminishing 
Federal or State jurisdiction, responsibility, interests, or rights in 
management, regulation, or control over waters of the State of Alaska 
or submerged lands under any provision of Federal or State law.
