[Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Adult Day Achievement Center 
Enhancement Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) One in 6 people in the United States lives with a 
        neurological disease or condition that can often result in 
        disability, and which may require the individual to seek 
        assistance in carrying out the activities of daily living. 
        Neurological diseases or conditions such as multiple sclerosis 
        (MS), early-onset Parkinson's disease, and traumatic brain 
        injury (TBI) often affect younger adults in the middle of their 
        lives.
            (2) Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling 
        disease that attacks the central nervous system with symptoms 
        ranging from numbness in limbs to paralysis and loss of vision. 
        Most individuals with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 
        and 50. It is estimated that more than 400,000 individuals in 
        the United States are living with MS. Individuals living with 
        MS who experience more severe forms of the disease are likely 
        to require either home care or nursing home placement, though 
        the vast majority would prefer to remain at home to receive the 
        care they need. Where home care is concerned, approximately 80 
        percent of such care is provided by informal, unpaid, 
        caregivers who are generally family members.
            (3) Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive 
        neurological disease. The 4 primary symptoms of Parkinson's 
        disease are tremor, or trembling in hands, arms, legs, jaw, and 
        face; rigidity, or stiffness of the limbs and trunk; 
        bradykinesia, or slowness of movement; and postural 
        instability, or impaired balance and coordination. It is 
        estimated that nearly 1,000,000 individuals live with 
        Parkinson's disease and, of those individuals, 5 to 10 percent 
        are diagnosed with the disease before age 60 and deemed 
        ``early-onset''.
            (4) Traumatic brain injury is a neurological condition that 
        typically results from a blow or jolt to the head or a 
        penetrating head injury and that can impact one or more parts 
        of the brain, thereby temporarily or permanently disrupting 
        normal brain function. The Centers for Disease Control and 
        Prevention estimates that 1,400,000 new cases of TBI occur 
        annually, resulting in disabilities affecting up to 90,000 
        individuals among a broad range of age groups. Traumatic brain 
        injury is a serious issue that affects military service 
        members. Estimates in prior military conflicts, indicate that 
        TBI was present in 14 to 20 percent of surviving casualties.
            (5) Family caregivers are a crucial source of support and 
        assistance for individuals suffering with disabilities. Family 
        caregivers, the majority of whom are women, provide an 
        estimated $306,000,000,000 in unpaid services annually. The 
        current pool of potential family caregivers is dwindling, from 
        11 potential caregivers for each individual needing care today 
        to a projected ratio of 4 potential caregivers for each such 
        individual by 2050.
            (6) Recent studies indicate that the total estimated cost 
        to employers for full-time employees with intensive caregiving 
        responsibilities is $17,100,000,000 annually. The total 
        estimated cost to employers for all full-time, employed 
        caregivers is $33,600,000,000 annually.
            (7) Adult day programs can offer services, including 
        medical care, rehabilitation therapies, dignified assistance 
        with the activities of daily living, nutrition therapy, health 
        monitoring, social interaction, stimulating activities, and 
        transportation to seniors, individuals with disabilities, and 
        younger adults with chronic diseases.
            (8) Adult day programs geared toward individuals living 
        with neurological diseases or conditions such as MS, 
        Parkinson's disease, TBI, or other similar diseases or 
        conditions, provide an important response to the needs of 
        individuals living with these conditions and the caregivers of 
        such individuals. Adult day programs can help to ameliorate 
        symptoms, reduce dependency, provide important socialization 
        opportunities, and maintain quality of life.
            (9) Adult day programs have been shown to provide a range 
        of documented benefits, including improvements in functional 
        status, social support, and reductions in fatigue, depression, 
        and pain. Adult day programs also reduce ongoing medical care 
        and hospital costs and decrease admissions to nursing home 
        facilities, which can be costly for many families, by allowing 
        individuals to receive health and social services while 
        continuing to live at home.
            (10) There are currently few adult day programs focused on 
        younger adult populations in the United States. As a result, 
        the majority of individuals living with neurological diseases 
        are unable to access this important opportunity for maximizing 
        their health and wellness. Although individuals living with 
        neurological diseases or conditions may be able to access other 
        existing adult day programs, such programs are not typically 
        intended for younger adults living with chronic diseases or 
        conditions, and may not provide the appropriate services to 
        meet the age-related or disability status of these individuals.

Revenue Act of 2001''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) the demand for energy in the United States is 
        increasing and will continue to increase for the foreseeable 
        future;
            (2) domestic production of oil and gas is declining;
            (3) the United States continues to be overly dependent on 
        foreign sources of oil and gas;
            (4) the Outer Continental Shelf contains significant 
        quantities of oil and gas that should be developed to meet 
        United States energy needs while safeguarding important 
        environmental values;
            (5) the exploration, development, and production of Outer 
        Continental Shelf resources, and the siting of related energy 
        facilities, may impact various State and local governments; and
            (6) coastal States and counties should be provided with a 
        share of the revenues derived from Outer Continental Shelf oil 
        and gas leasing, exploration, development, and production 
        activities.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    For purposes of this Act--
            (1) the term ``coastal State'' means any State of the 
        United States bordering on the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific 
        Ocean, the Arctic Ocean, or the Gulf of Mexico;
            (2) the term ``coastal county'' means a unit of general 
        government immediately below the level of State government, as 
        determined by the Secretary under section 6, with jurisdiction 
        over lands along the coast line;

        under the Submerged Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1301 et seq.);
            (4) the term ``Outer Continental Shelf'' has the meaning 
        given the term ``outer Continental Shelf'' under the Outer 
        Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1331 et seq.);
            (5) the term ``Secretary'' means the Secretary of the 
        Interior; and
            (6) the term ``revenues'' means all bonuses, rents, 
        royalties, and other moneys collected under the Outer 
        Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1331 et seq.), and 
        interest thereon.

SEC. 4. COASTAL COMMUNITIES OUTER CONTINENTAL SHELF RECEIPT FUND.

    (a) Establishment.--There is established an interest bearing 
account in the Treasury of the United States to be known as the Coastal 
Communities Outer Continental Shelf Receipt Fund (hereafter in this Act 
referred to as ``the Fund'').
    (b) Payments to Fund.--Beginning in fiscal year 2002, the Secretary 
shall pay into the Fund all revenues described in subsection (c) that 
are attributable to an Outer Continental Shelf lease, any part of which 
is within 200 geographical miles of the coast line. The Secretary may 
adjust amounts in the Fund at any time to account for overpayments, 
underpayments, and errors.
    (c) New Revenues.--Subsection (b) shall apply only to--
            (1) bonus revenues under a lease if no bonus revenues have 
        been received by the Secretary under that lease before January 
        1, 2001;
            (2) rent revenues under a lease if no rent revenues have 
        been received by the Secretary under that lease before January 
        1, 2001;
            (3) royalty revenues under a lease if no royalty revenues 
        have been received by the Secretary under that lease before 
        January 1, 2001; and
            (4) other revenues under a lease if the lease was issued on 
        or after January 1, 2001.

SEC. 5. DISPOSITION OF FUND.

    (a) State Share.--(1) Six months after the end of fiscal year 2002, 
and annually thereafter, the Secretary shall pay from the Fund to each 
coastal State one-half of such revenues paid into the Fund with respect 
to the fiscal year most recently completed, and any interest earned 
thereon, as may be attributable to that State.
    (2) In order to determine to which State revenues are attributable 
for purposes of this Act, the Secretary shall delimit the lateral 
boundaries between the coastal States to a point 200 geographic miles 
seaward of the coast line. Such boundaries shall be set according to 
the following principles, listed in order of the priority of their 
application:
            (A) Any judicial decrees or interstate compacts delimiting 
        lateral offshore boundaries between coastal States.
            (B) Principles of domestic and international law governing 
        the delimitation of lateral offshore boundaries.
            (C) The desirability of following existing lease boundaries 
        and block lines on the Secretary's official protraction 
        diagrams.
    (3) Each coastal State, before receiving funds under this 
subsection, shall annually enact the necessary legislation to provide 
any State permits required for onshore facilities needed to support 
offshore oil or gas development or production in the area adjacent to 
that coastal State. If a State fails to enact such legislation, the 
funds attributable to that State shall not be disbursed, and the 
Secretary shall take into consideration that failure before offering 
any additional leases for sale in the offshore area adjacent to that 
State.
    (b) Coastal County Share.--(1) At the same time that the Secretary 
pays revenues to coastal States under subsection (a), the Secretary 
shall pay to coastal counties within that State the remaining one-half 
of the revenues, and any interest earned on those revenues, in the Fund 
for that fiscal year attributable to that State.
    (2) In order to determine to which coastal county revenues are 
attributable for purposes of this Act, the Secretary shall delimit the 
lateral boundaries between the coastal counties to a point 200 
geographic miles seaward of the coast line. Such boundaries shall be 
set according to the following principles, listed in order of the 
priority of their application:
            (A) Existing boundaries between coastal counties with valid 
        supporting legal authority.
            (B) The desirability of following existing lease boundaries 
        and block lines on the Secretary's official protraction 
        diagrams.
            (C) The principle that, to the extent consistent with 
        subparagraphs (A) and (B), the size of the coastal county's 
        adjacent offshore area, as a percentage of all of that State's 
        adjacent offshore areas, shall be based on a formula giving 
        equal weight to--
                    (i) the coastal county's coast line as a percentage 
                of the State's coast line, calculated using the same 
                large-scale charts of the National Ocean Service that 
                are used to delimit the territorial sea under 
                international law; and
                    (ii) the coastal county's population as a 
                percentage of the population of all coastal counties in 
                the State, calculated by the Secretary using the best 
                available national census data.
    (3) Each coastal county, before receiving funds under this 
subsection, shall annually enact by county statute or ordinance the 
necessary legislation to provide the local permits required for onshore 
facilities needed to support offshore oil or gas development or 
production in the area adjacent to that coastal county, and the 
necessary legislation to expend such funds. If a county fails to enact 
such legislation, the funds attributable to that county shall not be 
disbursed, and the Secretary shall take into consideration that failure 
before offering any additional leases for sale in the offshore area 
adjacent to that county.
    (c) Use of Funds by States.--Each coastal State shall use funds 
received pursuant to subsection (a)--
            (1) to pay for the administrative costs the State incurs in 
        the leasing and permitting process as specified in the Outer 
        Continental Shelf Lands Act;
            (2) for such environmental and natural resource projects as 
        the State determines; or
            (3) for such educational projects as the State determines.
    (d) County Distribution of Funds.--Each coastal county shall 
develop a formula to allocate at least two-thirds of the funds received 
pursuant to subsection (b) to local communities within its jurisdiction 
based on the proximity of these communities to the coast, except that 
funds shall be withheld from communities that the Secretary determines 
have failed to issue permits required for onshore facilities needed to 
support offshore oil or gas development or production in the area 
adjacent to that coastal county.

SEC. 6. DESIGNATION OF COASTAL COUNTIES.

    For the purposes of this Act, the Secretary, after consultation 
with the Governor of each coastal State, shall determine which 
counties, parishes, boroughs, tribal governments, or other units of 
general government immediately below the level of State government 
shall be designated as coastal counties.

SEC. 7. LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABILITY OF BOUNDARIES.

    The boundaries and areas delimited under section 5 are solely for 
the purposes of this Act.
[A]: Fair Disbursement of Offshore Oil Revenue Act of 2001 - Establishes in the Treasury the Coastal Communities Outer Continental Shelf Receipt Fund.Instructs the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) pay into the Fund certain revenues attributable to an Outer Continental Shelf lease, any part of which is within 200 geographical miles of the coast line; and (2) pay annually from the Fund to each coastal State one-half, and its coastal counties the other half, of such revenues as may be attributable to that State.Conditions receipt of such funds upon annual enactment by the affected coastal State and related coastal county of the legislation necessary to provide any permits required for onshore facilities needed to support offshore oil or gas development or production in the pertinent area.Prohibits disbursement of funds to a coastal State or county that fails to enact such legislation. Requires the Secretary to take such failure into consideration before offering additional leases for sale in the offshore area adjacent to such jurisdiction.Requires each State to use such funds for leasing and permitting administrative costs, and for environmental, natural resource, and educational projects.

                characteristics that are used for identification, or 
                verification of the identity, of an individual.
                    ``(B) Biometrics.--The term `biometrics' means a 
                technology that enables the automated identification, 
                or verification of the identity, of an individual based

[A]:
Aviation Biometric Technology Utilization Act - Amends Federal transportation law to change from discretionary to mandatory the authority of the Under Secretary for Border and Transportation Security of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to issue guidance for the use of biometrics or other technology that positively verifies the identity of each airport employee and law enforcement officer who enters a secure area of an airport.

Prescribes minimum requirements for such guidance.

Directs the Under Secretary to establish: (1) a law enforcement officer travel credential that incorporates biometrics and is uniform across all Federal, State, and local government law enforcement agencies; (2) a process by which the travel credential will be used to verify the identity of a Federal, State, or local government law enforcement officer seeking to carry a weapon on board an aircraft, without unnecessarily disclosing to the public that the individual is a law enforcement officer; and (3) related procedures.

Requires the Under Secretary to begin issuance of the travel credential to each Federal, State, and local government law enforcement officer authorized to carry a weapon on board an aircraft.
