                Rio Grande near Eagle Pass and Laredo, Texas, to 
                Natchitoches, Louisiana, and including the Old San 
                Antonio Road, as generally depicted on the maps 
                entitled `El Camino Real de los Tejas', contained in 
                the report prepared pursuant to subsection (b) entitled 
                `National Historic Trail Feasibility Study and 
                Environmental Assessment: El Camino Real de los Tejas,

                        Secretary of the Interior per section 3(a)(3) 
                        of this Act.

                        components of the national historic trail. The 
                        owner's approval of a certification agreement 
                        satisfies the consent requirement.

                authority to apply other Federal laws and regulations 
                on non-Federal lands along the trail. Laws or 
                regulations requiring public entities and agencies to

                States is authorized to acquire privately owned real 
                property or an interest in such property for purposes 
                of the national historic trail only with the consent of

        Services, but in no case shall such effective date be later 
        than the date that is 24 months after the date adequate funding 
        is provided pursuant to subsection (d)(2).
            (2) Reissuance.--Subject to subsection (d)(2), in the case 
        of individuals who have been issued such cards before such

[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Engineering Biology Research and 
Development Act of 2015''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Cellular and molecular processes may be used, mimicked, 
        or redesigned to develop new products, processes, and systems 
        that improve societal well-being, strengthen national security, 
        and contribute to the economy.
            (2) Engineering biology relies on scientists and engineers 
        with a diverse and unique set of skills combining the 
        biological, physical, and information sciences and engineering.
            (3) Long-term research and development is necessary to 
        create breakthroughs in engineering biology. Such research and 
        development requires government investment as the benefits are 
        too distant or uncertain for industry to support alone.
            (4) The Federal Government can play an important role by 
        facilitating the development of tools and technologies to 
        further advance engineering biology, including multiple user 
        facilities that the Federal Government is uniquely able to 
        support.
            (5) Since other countries are investing significant 
        resources in engineering biology, the United States is at risk 
        of losing its competitive lead in this emerging area if it does 
        not invest the necessary resources and have a national 
        strategy.
            (6) A National Engineering Biology Initiative can serve to 
        establish new research directions and technology goals, improve 
        interagency coordination and planning processes, drive 
        technology transfer, and help ensure optimal returns on the 
        Federal investment.

        ensuring that the results of such research are widely 
        disseminated, including through interdisciplinary engineering 
        biology research centers described in subsection (b)(1); and
            (2) ensuring, through the agencies and departments that
