Example Input: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''National Park Centennial Act of
2004''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds:
(1) The National Park Service was established to conserve
the national parks, their scenery, natural and historic
objects, and wildlife for the enjoyment, in such manner and by
such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of
future generations.
(2) The central purpose of the establishment of our
national parks is being challenged by chronic funding
shortfalls, which have created annual shortfalls in operational
funding that exceed $600,000,000, and have amassed a
maintenance backlog estimated by the General Accounting Office
at between $4,080,000,000 and $6,800,000,000.
(3) Without providing the Park Service the resources
necessary to operate and maintain our national parks, future
generations will receive diminished visitor services, will
experience a continually weakening system that is less and less
able to fulfill its mission, and will inherit a national park
system than has been left to them in worse condition that it
was left to their ancestors.
(4) The annual appropriations process has proved incapable
of fully addressing the debilitating funding shortfalls of the
national parks, making it necessary to supplement what the
appropriations process is able to accomplish.
(5) It is necessary to ensure that fiscal resources devoted
to the national parks are spent wisely and effectively, making
strong congressional oversight over annual appropriations
extremely important.
(6) Congress can enhance the resources available for
national park operations and ensure adequate oversight over
Park Service spending by removing from the appropriations
process a series of funding responsibilities that are outside
the core operating budgets for the national parks.
(b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to eliminate the annual
operating deficit and the maintenance backlog in the national parks by
the centennial anniversary of the National Park System by enabling
Congress to focus on overseeing and fully funding the core operations
of the national parks in the annual appropriations process.

Example Output:
National Park Centennial Act of 2004 - Establishes the National Park Centennial Fund (Fund) in the Treasury.

Amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow individual taxpayers to designate overpayments and contributions for the benefit of the National Park System. Allocates such amounts to the Fund (along with necessary amounts from the General Fund to the extent that such amounts are inadequate in any fiscal year) for expenditure by the Secretary of the Interior.

Creates within the Fund the National Park Backlog Elimination Fund, the Natural Resource Challenge Fund, and the Cultural Resource Challenge Fund.

Authorizes appropriations for a public awareness campaign about the Fund and the ability of taxpayers to make tax-related contributions.

Requires a specified percentage of Fund deposits to be used: (1) for the elimination of the backlog of unmet needs in the national parks as identified in the Facility Condition Index of the National Park Service (NPS); (2) to protect natural resources within the parks; and (3) to protect cultural resources within the parks. Requires a majority of such percentages to be distributed to those national parks that have completed comprehensive business plans under the Business Plan Initiative of the NPS.

Directs the Government Accountability Office annually to submit a report on the National Park System to specified congressional committees.

Authorizes the Secretary of Education to provide grants to elementary and secondary schools for cooperative agreements with the NPS providing distance learning and onsite education programs.
