Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Champlain Valley National Heritage 
Partnership Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) the Champlain Valley and its extensive cultural and 
        natural resources have played a significant role in the history 
        of the United States and the individual States of Vermont and 
        New York;
            (2) archaeological evidence indicates that the Champlain 
        Valley has been inhabited by humans since the last retreat of 
        the glaciers, with the Native Americans living in the area at 
        the time of European discovery being primarily of Iroquois and 
        Algonquin descent;
            (3) the linked waterways of the Champlain Valley, including 
        the Richelieu River in Canada, played a unique and significant 
        role in the establishment and development of the United States 
        and Canada through several distinct eras, including--
                    (A) the era of European exploration, during which 
                Samuel de Champlain and other explorers used the 
                waterways as a means of access through the wilderness;
                    (B) the era of military campaigns, including highly 
                significant military campaigns of the French and Indian 
                War, the American Revolution, and the War of 1812; and
                    (C) the era of maritime commerce, during which 
                canals boats, schooners, and steamships formed the 
                backbone of commercial transportation for the region;
            (4) those unique and significant eras are best described by 
        the theme ``The Making of Nations and Corridors of Commerce'';
            (5) the artifacts and structures associated with those eras 
        are unusually well-preserved;
            (6) the Champlain Valley is recognized as having one of the 
        richest collections of historical resources in North America;
            (7) the history and cultural heritage of the Champlain 
        Valley are shared with Canada and the Province of Quebec;
            (8) there are benefits in celebrating and promoting this 
        mutual heritage;
            (9) tourism is among the most important industries in the 
        Champlain Valley, and heritage tourism in particular plays a 
        significant role in the economy of the Champlain Valley;
            (10) it is important to enhance heritage tourism in the 
        Champlain Valley while ensuring that increased visitation will 
        not impair the historical and cultural resources of the region;
            (11) according to the 1999 report of the National Park 
        Service entitled ``Champlain Valley Heritage Corridor 
        Project'', ``the Champlain Valley contains resources and 
        represents a theme `The Making of Nations and Corridors of 
        Commerce', that is of outstanding importance in U.S. history''; 
        and
            (12) it is in the interest of the United States to preserve 
        and interpret the historical and cultural resources of the 
        Champlain Valley for the education and benefit of present and 
        future generations.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to establish the Champlain Valley National Heritage 
        Partnership in the States of Vermont and New York to recognize 
        the importance of the historical, cultural, and recreational 
        resources of the Champlain Valley region to the United States;
            (2) to assist the State of Vermont and New York, including 
        units of local government and nongovernmental organizations in 
        the States, in preserving, protecting, and interpreting those 
        resources for the benefit of the people of the United States;
            (3) to use those resources and the theme ``The Making of 
        Nations and Corridors of Commerce'' to--
                    (A) revitalize the economy of communities in the 
                Champlain Valley; and
                    (B) generate and sustain increased levels of 
                tourism in the Champlain Valley;
            (4) to encourage--
                    (A) partnerships among State and local governments 
                and nongovernmental organizations in the United States; 
                and
                    (B) collaboration with Canada and the Province of 
                Quebec to--
                            (i) interpret and promote the history of 
                        the waterways of the Champlain Valley region;
                            (ii) form stronger bonds between the United 
                        States and Canada; and
                            (iii) promote the international aspects of
