    As used in this Act:
        (1) The term ``Federal lands'' means public lands as defined in 
    section 103(e) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 
    1976 (43 U.S.C. 1702(e)).

        (4) The term ``State lands'' means lands and interest in lands 
    owned by the State of Wyoming within the boundaries of Grand Teton 
    National Park as identified on a map titled ``Private, State & 
    County Inholdings Grand Teton National Park'', dated March 2001, 
    and numbered GTNP/0001.

SEC. 3. ACQUISITION OF STATE LANDS.

    (a) The Secretary is authorized to acquire approximately 1,406 
acres of State lands within the exterior boundaries of Grand Teton 
National Park, as generally depicted on the map referenced in section 
2(4), by any one or a combination of the following--
        (1) donation;
        (2) purchase with donated or appropriated funds; or
        (3) exchange of Federal lands in the State of Wyoming that are 
    identified for disposal under approved land use plans in effect on 
    the date of enactment of this Act under section 202 of the Federal 
    Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1712) that are of 
    equal value to the State lands acquired in the exchange.
    (b) In the event that the Secretary or the Governor determines that 
the Federal lands eligible for exchange under subsection (a)(3) are not 
sufficient or acceptable for the acquisition of all the State lands 
identified in section 2(4), the Secretary shall identify other Federal 
lands or interests therein in the State of Wyoming for possible 
exchange and shall identify such lands or interests together with their 
estimated value in a report to the Committee on Energy and Natural 
Resources of the United States Senate and the Committee on Resources of 
the House of Representatives. Such lands or interests shall not be 
available for exchange unless authorized by an Act of Congress enacted 
after the date of submission of the report.

SEC. 4. VALUATION OF STATE AND FEDERAL INTERESTS.

    (a) Agreement on Appraiser.--If the Secretary and the Governor are 
unable to agree on the value of any Federal lands eligible for exchange 
under section 3(a)(3) or State lands, then the Secretary and the 
Governor may select a qualified appraiser to conduct an appraisal of 
those lands. The purchase or exchange under section 3(a) shall be 
conducted based on the values determined by the appraisal.
    (b) No Agreement on Appraiser.--If the Secretary and the Governor 
are unable to agree on the selection of a qualified appraiser under 
subsection (a), then the Secretary and the Governor shall each 
designate a qualified appraiser. The two designated appraisers shall 
select a qualified third appraiser to conduct the appraisal with the 
advice and assistance of the two designated appraisers. The purchase or 
exchange under section 3(a) shall be conducted based on the values 
determined by the appraisal.
    (c) Appraisal Costs.--The Secretary and the State of Wyoming shall 
each pay one-half of the appraisal costs under subsections (a) and (b).
SEC. 5. ADMINISTRATION OF STATE LANDS ACQUIRED BY THE UNITED STATES.

shall become part of Grand Teton National Park. The Secretary shall
