                                 A BILL

 
  To establish the Manhattan Project National Historical Park in Oak 
Ridge, Tennessee, Los Alamos, New Mexico, and Hanford, Washington, and 
                          for other purposes.

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

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Manhattan Project National 
Historical Park Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) the Manhattan Project was an unprecedented top-secret 
        program implemented during World War II to produce an atomic 
        bomb before Nazi Germany;
            (2) a panel of experts convened by the President's Advisory 
        Council on Historic Preservation in 2001--
                    (A) stated that ``the development and use of the 
                atomic bomb during World War II has been called `the 
                single most significant event of the 20th century'''; 
                and
                    (B) recommended that nationally significant sites 
                associated with the Manhattan Project be formally 
                established as a collective unit and be administered 
                for preservation, commemoration, and public 
                interpretation in cooperation with the National Park 
                Service;
            (3) the Manhattan Project National Historical Park Study 
        Act (Public Law 108-340; 118 Stat. 1362) directed the Secretary 
        of the Interior, in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, 
        to conduct a special resource study of the historically 
        significant sites associated with the Manhattan Project to 
        assess the national significance, suitability, and feasibility 
        of designating 1 or more sites as a unit of the National Park 
        System;
            (4) after significant public input, the National Park 
        Service study found that ``including Manhattan Project-related 
        sites in the national park system will expand and enhance the 
        protection and preservation of such resources and provide for 
        comprehensive interpretation and public understanding of this 
        nationally significant story in the 20th century American 
        history'';
            (5) the Department of the Interior, with the concurrence of 
        the Department of Energy, recommended the establishment of a 
        Manhattan Project National Historical Park comprised of 
        resources at--
                    (A) Oak Ridge, Tennessee;
                    (B) Los Alamos, New Mexico; and
                    (C) Hanford, in the Tri-Cities area, Washington;
            (6) designation of a Manhattan Project National Historical 
        Park as a unit of the National Park System would improve the 
        preservation of, interpretation of, and access to the 
        nationally significant historic resources associated with the 
        Manhattan Project for present and future generations to gain a 
        better understanding of the Manhattan Project, including the 
        significant, far-reaching, and complex legacy of the Manhattan 
        Project; and
            (7) the permanent historical preservation of the B Reactor 
        at Hanford as part of the Manhattan National Historical Park 
        would provide significant savings to the Federal Government 
        relative to placing the reactor into interim safe storage and 
        subsequently dismantling the reactor--
                    (A) as determined as part of the Record of Decision 
                entitled ``Decommissioning of Eight Surplus Production 
                3 Reactors at the Hanford Site, Richland, WA''; and
                    (B) as included within milestone M-093-00 of the 
                Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order.

SEC. 3. PURPOSES.

    The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to preserve and protect for the benefit and education 
        of present and future generations the nationally significant 
        historic resources associated with the Manhattan Project;
            (2) to improve public understanding of the Manhattan 
        Project and the legacy of the Manhattan Project through 
        interpretation of the historic resources associated with the 
        Manhattan Project;
            (3) to enhance public access to the Historical Park, 
        consistent with protection of public safety, national security, 
        and other aspects of the mission of the Department of Energy; 
        and
            (4) to assist the Department of Energy, Historical Park 
        communities, historical societies, and other interested 
        organizations and individuals in efforts to preserve and 
        protect the historically significant resources associated with 
        the Manhattan Project.
