§ 309101. Sites and structures that commemorate former Presidents
(a) Survey.—
The Secretary may conduct a survey of sites that the Secretary considers exhibit qualities most appropriate for the commemoration of each former President. The survey may—
(1) include sites associated with the deeds, leadership, or lifework of a former President; and
(2) identify sites or structures historically unrelated to a former President but that may be suitable as a memorial to honor that President.
(b) Reports.—
The Secretary shall, from time to time, prepare and transmit to the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate reports on individual sites and structures identified in a survey under subsection (a), together with the Secretary’s recommendation as to whether the site or structure is suitable for establishment as a national historic site or national memorial to commemorate a former President. Each report shall include pertinent information with respect to the need for acquisition of land and interests in land, the development of facilities, and the operation and maintenance of the site or structure and the estimated cost of the operation and maintenance.
(c) Establishment as National Historic Site.—
If during the 6-month period following the transmittal of a report pursuant to subsection (b) neither Committee has by vote of a majority of its members disapproved a recommendation of the Secretary that a site or structure is suitable for establishment as a national historic site, the Secretary may by appropriate order establish the site or structure as a national historic site, including the land and interests in land identified in the report accompanying the recommendation of the Secretary.
(d) Acquistion 1 of Land and Interests in Land.—
The Secretary may acquire the land and interests in land by donation, purchase with donated or appropriated funds, transfer from any other Federal agency, or exchange.

heading: Amendment Not Shown in Text
text: This section was derived from section 469n(f) of Title 16, Conservation. Pursuant to section 6(b) of Pub. L. 113–287, set out as a Transitional and Savings Provisions note preceding section 100101 of this title, this section replaces the former provisions as they existed on Jan. 15, 2013, and any amendment to the former provisions enacted after Jan. 15, 2013, is deemed to amend this section. Former section 469n(f) of Title 16 was amended after Jan. 15, 2013, by Pub. L. 113–291, div. B, title XXX, § 3033(e), Dec. 19, 2014, 128 Stat. 3777, by inserting “, except that the amount authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section not appropriated as of the date of enactment of the First State National Historical Park Act shall be reduced by $6,500,000” before period at end. [No act with the title First State National Historical Park Act has been enacted. The date of enactment of the First State National Historical Park Act probably means the date of enactment of section 3033 of Pub. L. 113–291, which was approved Dec. 19, 2014. In addition to making the above amendment, section 3033 of Pub. L. 113–291 enacted section 410rrr of Title 16.]
