SEC. 2607. REVIEW AND REPORT ON CONSTRUCTION OF 
NEW, OR MAINTENANCE OF EXISTING, DI-
RECT FUEL PIPELINE CONNECTIONS AT AIR 
NATIONAL GUARD AND AIR FORCE RESERVE 
INSTALLATIONS. 
(a) REVIEW REQUIRED.—Not later than 180 days 
after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary 
of the Air Force, in conjunction with the Defense Logistics 
Agency, shall complete a review considering—
1684 
(1) the need for, and benefits of, the construc-
tion of new, or maintenance of existing, direct fuel 
pipeline connections at Air National Guard and Air 
Force Reserve installations; and 
(2) the barriers, including funding needs and 
any inconsistent guidance and consideration of such 
projects by the Air Force, that may impede such 
projects. 
(b) ELEMENTS OF REVIEW.—The review required by 
subsection (a) shall include the following: 
(1) An analysis of the extent that the Air Force 
and Defense Logistics Agency have identified direct 
fuel pipeline projects as an effective and efficient 
way to enhance the ability of regular component, Air 
National Guard, and Air Force Reserve installations, 
to improve the readiness of affected units and help 
them to meet their mission requirements, including 
an assessment of how the Air National Guard and 
Air Force Reserve facilities, across all States and 
territories, can leverage such connections to better 
support current and emerging air refueling require-
ments. 
(2) An assessment of how direct fuel pipeline 
connections enhance the resiliency and efficiency of 
the installations and help meet existing Defense Lo-
1685 
gistics Agency requirements for secondary storage 
and other fuel requirements. 
(3) A list of Air National Guard and Air Force 
Reserve installations that currently do not have a di-
rect connection pipeline but have access to such a 
pipeline within reasonable proximity (less than five 
miles) to the facility. 
(4) An overview and summary of the current 
process for considering such proposals, including the 
factors used to consider requests, including the 
weight provided to each factor
and including a list 
of Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve instal-
lations that have sought funding for projects to cre-
ate direct access to a national fuel pipeline or to 
maintain access to such pipelines over the last five 
years. 
(5) A list of the total instances in the past five 
years in which projects for direct fuel pipeline con-
nections have been approved for regular component, 
Air National Guard, or Air Force Reserve installa-
tions, including the costs of each project and the jus-
tification for such approval. 
(6) A list of Air National Guard and Air Force 
Reserve installations with current pipeline connec-
tions that the Air Force or Defense Logistics Agency
1686 
has determined should no longer be used, includ-
ing— 
(A) an analysis of the justifications for 
each such determination, such as decisions to 
switch from pipelines to using trucks as the pri-
mary fuel delivery method; 
(B) an assessment of whether these deter-
minations fairly weigh the costs and benefits of 
building or maintaining a pipeline tap as a 
practical primary or secondary fuel delivery 
method for the installation compared to rail-
road, barge terminal, or truck delivery; and 
(C) an assessment of whether these deter-
minations fairly consider or weigh how direct 
fuel pipeline connections increase security for 
the fuel supply by reducing the threat of inter-
ruption, enhance mission reliability by providing 
access to greater fuel storage capability, and 
the ability of such projects once completed to 
better support the domestic and global oper-
ations of the Air National Guard or Air Force 
Reserve installation. 
(7) An assessment of how costs associated with 
each direct fuel pipeline connection project is consid-
ered by the Air Force or Defense Logistics Agency
1687 
and the weight given to such costs in the final anal-
ysis. 
(8) An assessment of the effectiveness or use-
fulness of guidance or technical assistance provided 
to installations requesting or proposing direct fuel 
pipeline connection projects and recommend ways to 
provide additional assistance to ensure the Air Force 
and Defense Logistics Agency receive the most up to 
date information about the costs and benefits of pro-
posed projects from installations. 
(9) An assessment of the available funding 
sources though the Air Force, Defense Logistics 
Agency, other Department of Defense entities, or 
other mechanisms, such as a public-private partner-
ship or enhanced use lease, that can support direct 
fuel pipeline connection projects either in whole or in 
part. 
(10) An assessment of the extent to which di-
rect fuel pipeline connection projects have been in-
corporated in any comprehensive plan the Air Force 
has developed or will develop regarding investments 
needed to improve Air National Guard, Air Force 
Reserve, and regular component installations to 
meet the Department’s needs.
1688 
(c) FINAL REPORT.—Not later than one year after 
the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of 
the Air Force shall provide a final report to the Commit-
tees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives containing the results of the review re-
quired by subsection (a) and recommendations from the 
review on how the Air Force can better expedite and sup-
port the use of fuel pipelines at Air National Guard and 
Air Force Reserve installations. Such recommendations 
shall include options for accelerating the development and 
consideration of such projects where most feasible and ap-
propriate, including whether costs savings could be ob-
tained by including such projects as part of other related 
projects already authorized at an installation.

SEC. 2863. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) White Sands National Monument was es-
tablished on January 18, 1933, by President Her-
bert Hoover pursuant to the Antiquities Act of 1906 
(now chapter 3203 of title 54, United States Code). 
(2) President Hoover proclaimed that the 
Monument was established ‘‘for the preservation of 
the white sands and additional features of scenic, 
scientific, and educational interest’’. 
(3) The Monument was expanded by Presidents 
Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Carter, and Clinton in 1934, 
1942, 1953, 1978, and 1996, respectively. 
(4) The Monument contains a substantially 
more diverse set of nationally significant historical, 
archaeological, scientific, and natural resources than 
were known of at the time the Monument was estab-
lished, including a number of recent discoveries. 
(5) The Monument is recognized as a major 
unit of the National Park System with extraordinary 
values enjoyed by more visitors each year since 1995 
than any other unit in the State of New Mexico. 
(6) The Monument contributes significantly to 
the local economy by attracting tourists. 
(7) Designation of the Monument as a national 
park would increase public recognition of the diverse
