Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) Perinatal transmission is the leading cause of 
        pediatric HIV infections, including AIDS cases.
            (2) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
        (``CDC'') estimates that nearly 7,000 HIV-infected women give 
        birth in the United States each year and as many as 400 babies 
        continue to be born with HIV infection each year.
            (3) Medical advances have made it possible to nearly 
        eliminate perinatal HIV transmission.
            (4) Research studies have demonstrated that the 
        administration of antiviral medication during pregnancy, during 
        labor, and immediately following birth can significantly reduce 
        the transmission of HIV from an infected mother to her baby. 
        Caesarean section further reduces the risk of transmission.
            (5) Even if treatment begins shortly after birth, 
        antiretroviral therapy can substantially reduce the chance that 
        an HIV-exposed infant will become infected.
            (6) Breastfeeding by HIV-infected mothers poses additional 
        significant risk of infection to babies.
            (7) The Institute of Medicine (``IOM'') has recommended the 
        adoption of a national policy of universal HIV testing, with 
        patient notification, as a routine component of prenatal care. 
        However, 15 percent of HIV-infected pregnant women receive no 
        prenatal care according to the IOM.
            (8) The CDC has recommended since 1995 that all pregnant 
        women be counseled and offered voluntary HIV testing. Yet 
        nearly half of pregnant women are still not tested according to 
        the CDC. The CDC has found that mandatory testing of newborns 
        and universal HIV testing of pregnant woman are the best 
        approaches for identifying, treating, and preventing HIV among 
        pregnant women and children.
            (9) The American Medical Association recommends mandatory 
        HIV testing of all newborns with appropriate treatment for 
        affected mothers and children.
            (10) Testing newborns whose mothers' status is unknown 
        ensures that every child at risk for HIV is identified.
            (11) More than a third of the HIV infections that occur 
        annually among newborns in the United States could be prevented 
        with routine HIV testing of pregnant woman or newborns 
        according to a 2002 report by the Inspector General of the 
        Department of Health and Human Services. This represents over 
        100 babies born every year that are needlessly infected.
            (12) The provision of testing of pregnant women and 
        newborns with appropriate counseling and treatment can 
        significantly reduce the number of pediatric HIV infections, 
        including AIDS cases, can improve access to and medical care 
        for the woman and children, and can provide opportunities to 
        further reduce transmission among adults.
            (13) The provision of such testing, counseling, and 
        treatment can reduce the overall cost of pediatric HIV 
        infections, including AIDS cases.
            (14) New York State has required mandatory HIV counseling 
        and voluntary testing for pregnant women and mandatory HIV 
        testing of all newborns since February 1997. As a result, the 
        perinatal HIV transmission rate in the State has dropped from 
        25 percent to an all time low of 3.5 percent and over 99 
percent of HIV-infected women and their children have been linked to 
care.
    (15) For the foregoing reasons--
                    (A) universal routine HIV testing of pregnant women 
                and newborns should be the standard of care; and
                    (B) the relevant medical organizations, as well as 
                public health officials, should issue guidelines making 
                such testing, counseling, and treatment the standard of 
                care.

        high volume stands (stands of 30,000 or more board feet per 
        acre) to low volume stands (stands of 8,000 to 30,000 board 
        feet per acre).
            (6) The term ``purchaser'' means the Ketchikan Pulp 
        Company.
    (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) On July 26, 1951, the Forest Service, on behalf of the 
        United States, and the purchaser entered into a contract to 
        harvest 8,250,000,000 board feet of timber from the Tongass 
        National Forest in the State of Alaska. While the contract is 
        scheduled to end June 30, 2004, it acknowledges an intention on 
        the part of the Forest Service to supply adequate timber 
        thereafter for permanent operation of the purchaser's 
        facilities on a commercially sound and permanently economical 
        basis. This legislation is necessary to effectuate that intent.
            (2) A pulp mill or similar facility is necessary in 
        southeast Alaska to optimize the level of year-round, high-
        paying jobs in the area, to provide high value added use of 
        low-grade wood and by-product material from sawmilling 
        operations, and to maintain a stable regional economy.
            (3) The purchaser plans to make environmental and 
        operational improvements to its pulp mill, including conversion 
        to an elementally chlorine free bleaching process, expansion of 
        wastewater treatment facilities, relocation of the existing 
        wastewater outfall, and improvements to chemical recovery and 
        power generation equipment. Total capital expenditures are 
        estimated to be $200,000,000, $25,000,000 of which the 
purchaser has already invested.
            (4) Extension of the contract for 15 years is the minimum 
        reasonable extension period to allow amortization of these 
        environmental improvement and energy efficiency projects.
            (5) Ketchikan is the fourth largest city in Alaska. Its 
        economic and job base are extremely dependent upon the 
        continuation of the contract, which provides the principal 
        source of year-round employment in the area. The purchaser has 
        stated among its goals and objectives the following:
                    (A) Continuation of a long-term commitment to 
                Ketchikan and southeast Alaska, including maintenance 
                of a stable Alaskan workforce, utilization of Alaskan 
                contractors, vendors, and suppliers to permit those 
                businesses to hire and maintain Alaskan employees.
                    (B) Participation in the Forest Service's land 
                management planning process with other users so that 
                the process may be completed expeditiously with maximum 
                information.
                    (C) Adherence to sound principles of multiple-use 
                and sustained yield of forest resources providing for 
                the production of sustainable contract volumes for the 
                purchaser and the other timber operators in southeast 
                Alaska and the protection and promotion of other forest 
                uses, including tourism, fishing, subsistence, hunting, 
                mining, and recreation.
                    (D) Protection of air, water, and land, including 
                fish and wildlife habitat, through compliance with 
                applicable Federal, State, and local laws.
                    (E) Commitment to continue to explore new processes 
                and technology to maximize the use of timber harvested 
                and increase the value of products manufactured in 
                southeast Alaska.
            (6) The national interest is served by a policy that 
        accomplishes the proper stewardship of publicly owned assets in 
        the Tongass National Forest, a fair return to the United States 
        for public timber in the Tongass National Forest, and a proper 
        balance among multiple use interests in the Tongass National 
        Forest to enhance forest health, sustainable harvest, and the 
        general economic health and growth in southeast Alaska and the 
        United States in order to improve national economic benefits. 
        The national interest is best achieved by fostering domestic 
        forest product markets and by modifying the terms of the 
        contract pursuant to subsection (c).
    (c) Contract Fairness Changes.--The contract is hereby modified as 
follows:
            (1) Extension.--The term of the contract is extended by 15 
        years from June 30, 2004.
            (2) Sale offering plan.--The contract shall include a plan 
        describing the amount of volume, location, and the schedule by 
        which the purchaser shall receive the timber required by 
        paragraph (3) for the remainder of the contract term. The plan 
        shall be coordinated with the Tongass Land Management Plan.
            (3) Volume requirements.--The volume of timber required 
        under the contract shall be provided in 5-year increments of 
        962,500,000 board feet, which the purchaser shall be obligated 
        to harvest in an orderly manner, subject to the following:
                    (A) Until March 1, 1999, when the next 5-year

                192,500,000 board feet per year of available timber at 
                a date certain each year and shall maintain a supply of 
                timber adequate to insure the purchaser can reasonably 
harvest 192,500,000 board feet each year.
                    (B) To ensure harvest in an orderly manner, the 
                contracting officer shall provide for the construction 
                by the purchaser of roads in portions of the 5-year 
                increment area of timber in advance of the 5-year 
                operating period by including such roads in the 
                environmental impact statement prepared for the 5-year 
                operating period.

        perform appraisals using normal independent national forest 
        timber sale procedures and designate rates for the increments 
        of timber to be provided. The rates shall not be designated at 
        a level that places the purchaser at a competitive disadvantage 
        to a similar enterprise in Pacific Northwest and those rate 
        shall be the sole charges the purchaser shall be required to 
        pay for timber provided.
            (5) Measurement of proportionality.--The Forest Service 
        shall measure proportionality using the following criteria:
