SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Grand Staircase-Escalante Resource
Protection Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds that--
(1) the designation of the Grand Staircase-Escalante
National Monument applies only to Federal land within the
boundary of the Monument;
(2) multiple use has been and continues to be the guiding
principle in the management of public land;
(3) in accordance with Proclamation 6920, issued by the
President on September 18, 1996 (61 Fed. Reg. 50223 (1996),
Federal land within the Monument should remain open for
multiple uses;
(4) the United States should not lay claim to Federal water
rights in lands within the Monument except in accordance with
the substantive and procedural requirements of the State of
Utah, and designation of the Monument and enactment of this Act
should not impair exercise of water rights by the State of
Utah;
(5) mining revenues from Federal and State School and
Institutional Trust Lands have generated considerable revenues
for Utah schools;
(6) an estimated 176,000 acres of surface land containing
significant coal and other resources managed by the School and
Institutional Trust Lands Administration for the benefit of
Utah's school children are located within the boundary of the
Monument;
(7) the creation of the Monument must not come at the
expense of Utah's school children;
(8) designation of the Monument will produce a considerable
loss of future Federal royalties, State royalties, and school
trust royalties resulting in significant revenue loss to Utah's
school children; and
(9) the lack of congressional, State, and local
consultation prior to designation of the Monument and the
failure of the Proclamation to establish a specific boundary
for the Monument are certain to give rise to disputes that will
require boundary adjustments.
