''SEC. 313. FEDERAL FACILITIES POLLUTION CONTROL.

''(a) In General.--Each department, agency, and instrumentality of
the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the Federal
Government (1) having jurisdiction over any property or facility, or
(2) engaged in any activity resulting, or which may result, in the
discharge or runoff of pollutants shall be subject to, and comply with,
all Federal, State, interstate, and local requirements, both
substantive and procedural (including any requirement for permits or
reporting or any provisions for injunctive relief and such sanctions as
may be imposed by a court to enforce such relief), respecting the
control and abatement of water pollution and management in the same
manner, and to the same extent, as any person is subject to such
requirements, including the payment of reasonable service charges. The
Federal, State, interstate, and local substantive and procedural
requirements, administrative authority, and process and sanctions
referred to in this subsection include, but are not limited to, all
administrative orders and all civil and administrative penalties and
fines, regardless of whether such penalties or fines are punitive or
coercive in nature or are imposed for isolated, intermittent, or
continuing violations. The United States hereby expressly waives any
immunity otherwise applicable to the United States with respect to any
such substantive or procedural requirement (including, but not limited
to, any injunctive relief, administrative order, or civil or
administrative penalty or fine referred to in the preceding sentence,
or reasonable service charge). The reasonable service charges referred
to in this subsection include, but are not limited to, fees or charges
assessed in connection with the processing and issuance of permits,
renewal of permits, amendments to permits, review of plans, studies,
and other documents, and inspection and monitoring of facilities, as
well as any other nondiscriminatory charges that are assessed in
connection with a Federal, State, interstate, or local water pollution
regulatory program. Neither the United States, nor any agent, employee,
or officer thereof, shall be immune or exempt from any process or
sanction of any State or Federal court with respect to the enforcement
of any such injunctive relief. No agent, employee, or officer of the
United States shall be personally liable for any civil penalty under
any Federal, State, interstate, or local water pollution law with
respect to any act or omission within the scope of the official duties
of the agent, employee, or officer. An agent, employee, or officer of
the United States shall be subject to any criminal sanction (including,
but not limited to, any fine or imprisonment) under any Federal or
State water pollution law, but no department, agency, or
instrumentality of the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of
the Federal Government shall be subject to any such sanction.
''(b) Administrative Enforcement Actions.--
''(1) In general.--The Administrator, the Secretary of the
Army, and the Secretary of the Department in which the Coast
Guard is operating may commence an administrative enforcement
action against any department, agency, or instrumentality of
the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the Federal
Government pursuant to the enforcement authorities contained in
this Act. The Administrator or Secretary, as applicable, shall
initiate an administrative enforcement action against such a
department, agency, or instrumentality in the same manner and
under the same circumstances as an action would be initiated
against another person. Any voluntary resolution or settlement
of such an action shall be set forth in a consent order.
''(2) Opportunity to confer.--No administrative order
issued to such a department, agency, or instrumentality shall
become final until such department, agency, or instrumentality
has had the opportunity to confer with the Administrator or
Secretary, as applicable.
''(c) Limitation on State Use of Funds Collected From Federal
Government.--Unless a State law in effect on the date of the enactment
of this subsection or a State constitution requires the funds to be
used in a different manner, all funds collected by a State from the
Federal Government from penalties and fines imposed for violation of
any substantive or procedural requirement referred to in subsection (a)
shall be used by the State only for projects designed to improve or
protect the environment or to defray the costs of environmental
protection or enforcement.''.
