STATEMENTS ON INTRODUCED 

BILLS AND JOINT RESOLUTIONS 

By Mr. DASCHLE: 

S. 742. A bill to amend the Wild and 

Scenic Rivers Act to limit acquisition 

of land on the 39-mile segment of the 

Missouri River, Nebraska and South 

Dakota, designated as a recreational 

river, to acquisition from willing sellers, and for other purposes; to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. 

THE WILD AND SCENIC RIVERS ACT AMENDMENT

ACT OF 1995

Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, in 1991 

Congress designated a 39-mile stretch 

of the Missouri River from Fort Randall to Lewis and Clark Lake as a national recreational river. The purpose 

of the recreational river designation is 

to protect the river and its environment, protect landowner rights, and 

provide for visitor use. 

Recreational river designations preserve an important part of our Nation’s 

natural heritage. This section, along 

with other segments of the Missouri 

River, provides critical native wildlife 

habitat, buffers against floods, and scenic waterways for recreation including 

fishing and hunting. For these reasons, 

South Dakotans feel strongly about 

the care and management of the river. 

The National Park Service is currently evaluating alternative plans for 

managing this segment of the Missouri 

River. The selected plan will set goals 

and mechanisms for the care and public 

use of the river. 

Numerous South Dakotans have commented officially on management alternatives proposed by the National 

Park Service. Some favor plans that 

emphasize the protection of wildlife 

habitat and provision of a primitive 

river experience. Others advocate a 

recreational emphasis with attention 

drawn to cultural and historical aspects of the river. Most agree on a balanced approach to river management. 

However, many people who own land 

adjacent to the river have expressed 

concerns about the effectiveness of
