[Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Alaska Federal Lands Management
Demonstration Project''.

SEC. 2. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS; PURPOSES.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds and declares the following:
(1) The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (16
U.S.C. 3101 et seq.) established new and expanded units of the
National Park System and the National Wildlife System in many
areas of Alaska. The purposes of these conservation system
units were, among other purposes, to protect habitat for fish
and wildlife, to conserve fish and wildlife populations in
their natural state, to provide continued opportunity for
subsistence uses by local residents, and to protect
archaeological sites associated with Native cultures.
(2) Many rural Alaskan communities are in close proximity
to conservation system lands, and the purposes of these units
are uniquely relevant to the culture and ways of Native
Alaskans and other residents of rural Alaskan communities.
Congress recognized this close relationship in sections 1306,
1307 and 1308 of the Alaska National Interest Lands
Conservation Act, which directed the Secretary of Interior to
establish programs whereby Native lands were given preference
for the siting of conservation service unit facilities, Native
corporations and local residents were given preference for the
provision of visitor services, and local residents were given
preferences for employment. Despite these provisions, little
progress has been made in increasing related employment
opportunities for Native Alaskan and other local residents.
(3) In much of rural Alaska, Indian tribes and tribal
organizations have a long history of contracting to operate
Federal programs and provide Federal services to resident
Alaskan Natives and have demonstrated the capacity to provide
other kinds of Federal programs and services.
(b) Purposes.--The purposes of this demonstration project are to
design innovative management strategies that will lead to greater
efficiency in conservation system unit management, expand Native
contracting opportunities, increase local employment, and further the
unique purposes of these units as they relate to subsistence practices,
Alaska Native cultures, and the preservation of fish and wildlife
habitat and populations.

SEC. 3. AUTHORIZATION OF DEMONSTRATION PROJECT.

The Secretary of the Interior shall, for a period not to exceed 5
years following the date of the enactment of this Act, conduct an
Alaska Federal Lands Management Demonstration Project.

SEC. 4. ALASKA FEDERAL LANDS MANAGEMENT DEMONSTRATION PROJECT.

(a) Participation.--The Secretary shall select, upon request and in
a manner to achieve geographic representation, not less than 6 eligible
Alaska Native tribes or tribal organizations per year to participate in
the Demonstration Project in fiscal years 2000 and 2001.
(b) Eligibility.--To be eligible to participate in the
Demonstration Project, each Indian tribe or tribal organization shall--
(1) request participation by resolution or other official
action of the governing body of the tribal organization;
(2) demonstrate financial and management stability and
capability;
(3) demonstrate significant use of or dependency upon the
relevant conservation system unit or other public land unit for
which programs, functions, services, and activities are
requested to be placed under contract;
(4) where the Secretary receives a request to contract
specific conservation system unit programs, services,
functions, and activities, or portions thereof, from more than
1 Indian tribe or tribal organization meeting the criteria set
forth in paragraphs (1) through (3), the Secretary shall apply
the priority selection criteria applied by the Juneau Area
Bureau of Indian Affairs for contracting pursuant to the Indian
Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act. If, after
applying such criteria, there remains more than one eligible
participant and such participants have overlapping requests to
negotiate and contract for the same programs, services,
functions, and activities, or portions thereof, the Secretary
may require such Indian tribes or organizations to agree which
entity shall have the ability to contract, or to submit a joint
request prior to entering into negotiations.
(c) Contracts.--
(1) In general.--Upon request, the Secretary shall
negotiate and enter into a contract with each participating
Indian tribe or tribal organization to plan, conduct and

substantially located within the geographic region of the
respective Indian tribe or tribal organization.
(2) Technical support.--Contracts authorized by this Act
shall include, at the request of the Indian tribe or tribal

Alaska National Interests Lands Conservation Act.
(3) Time limitation for negotiation of contracts.--Not
later than 90 days after selection by the Secretary of
participating Indian tribes or tribal organizations, the
Secretary shall initiate and conclude negotiations, unless an
alternative negotiation and implementation schedule is
otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties. The declination
and appeals provisions of the Indian Self-Determination and
Education Assistance Act, including section 110 of such Act,
shall apply to contracts and agreements requested and
negotiated under this Act.
(d) Contract Administration.--
(1) Inclusion of certain terms.--At the request of the
contracting Indian tribe or tribal organization, the benefits,

the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act are

orders from the Department of the Interior, the Office of
Management and Budget, or other Federal agencies.
(e) Available Funding; Payment.--Under the terms of a contract
negotiated pursuant to subsection (a), the Secretary shall provide each
Indian tribe or tribal organization funds in an amount not less than
the Secretary would have otherwise provided for the operation of the
requested programs, services, functions, and activities. Contracts
entered into under this Act shall provide for advance payments to the
tribal organizations in the form of annual or semiannual installments.
(f) Timing.--Indian tribes and tribal organizations selected to
participate shall be entitled to begin implementation of any requested
contracts no later than the first fiscal year following the year in
which the Indian tribe or tribal organization is selected for
participation, unless the Indian tribe or tribal organization and the
Secretary, by mutual agreement, shall agree to an alternate
implementation schedule.
(g) Report.--Not later than 90 days after the close of fiscal years
2000 and 2001 and the end of this Demonstration Project, the Secretary
shall present to the Congress detailed reports, including a narrative,
findings, and conclusions on the costs and benefits of the
Demonstration Project. The reports shall identify remaining
institutional and legal barriers to the contracting of conservation
system unit management to Alaska Native entities and shall contain
suggestions for improving, continuing, and expanding the Demonstration
Project. The reports shall be authored jointly with, and shall include
the separate views of, all participating Alaska Native tribes and
tribal organizations.
(h) Limitations.--
(1) Revenue producing visitor services.--Contracts
authorized under this Act shall not include revenue producing
visitor services unless an agreement is reached with the most
