Q: SECTION 1. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) The Congress finds that--
            (1) the city of Waterloo, Iowa, and northeast Iowa of the 
        State possess many important elements of the nationally 
        significant story of American agriculture, including Native 
        American agriculture, agricultural mechanization, seed 
        hybridization, farm cooperative movements, rural 
        electrification, farm-to-market systems, rural to urban 
        migration, veterinary practice, food processing and 
        preservation, national farm organizations, international hunger 
        relief, and the development of national and international 
        agribusiness;
            (2) these resources offer outstanding and unique 
        opportunities to acknowledge and appreciate the development of 
        American agriculture;
            (3) the National Park Service has determined that the story 
        of American agriculture is nationally significant, that 
        northeast Iowa is an ideal place to tell that story, and that 
        this story could be divided into 4 principal topics for 
        interpretation in northeast Iowa: the Amazing Science of 
        Agriculture, Agriculture as a Way of Life, Organizing for 
        Survival, and Crops from Field to Table;
            (4) the responsibility for interpreting, retaining, 
        enhancing, and promoting the resources, values, and amenities 
        of Waterloo, Iowa and northeast Iowa resides with volunteer 
        associations, private businesses, political subdivisions of the 
        State, and the State of Iowa; and
            (5) despite the efforts by volunteer associations, private 
        businesses, political subdivisions of the State, and the State 
        of Iowa, the cultural and historical resources of the area have 
        not realized full potential and may be lost without some 
        assistance from the Federal Government.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to interpret, retain, enhance, and promote the unique 
        and significant contributions to national and international 
        agriculture of certain natural, historic, and cultural 
        resources within Waterloo, Iowa, and northeast Iowa;
            (2) to provide a partnership management framework to assist 
        volunteer associations, private businesses, political 
        subdivisions of the State, and the State of Iowa in developing 
        and implementing Management Plan policies and programs that 
        will assist in the interpretation, retention, enhancement, and 
        promotion of the cultural, natural, and recreational resources 
        of northeast Iowa;
            (3) to allow for local, State, and Federal contributions 
        through limited grants and technical assistance to create 
        America's Agricultural Heritage Partnership through cooperative 
        agreements among volunteer associations, private businesses, 
        political subdivisions of the State, the State of Iowa, and 
        residents of the area; and
            (4) to provide for an economically self-sustaining 
        Partnership for the educational and inspirational benefit of 
        current and future generations concerning the story of American 
        agriculture.
