Complex Expansion and Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge
Expansion Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds that--
(1) the western basin of Lake Erie, as part of the Great
Lakes ecosystem--
(A) is the largest freshwater ecosystem in the
world; and
(B) is vitally important to the economic and
environmental future of the United States;
(2) over the 30-year period preceding the date of enactment
of this Act, the citizens and governmental institutions of the
United States and Canada have devoted increasing attention and
resources to the restoration of the water quality and fisheries
of the Great Lakes, including the western basin;
(3) that increased awareness has been accompanied by a
gradual shift toward a holistic ecosystem approach that
highlights a growing recognition that shoreline areas, commonly
referred to as nearshore terrestrial ecosystems, are an
integral part of the western basin and the Great Lakes
ecosystem;
(4) the Great Lakes account for more than 90 percent of the
surface freshwater in the United States;
(5) the western basin of Lake Erie receives approximately
90 percent of its flow from the Detroit River and only
approximately 10 percent from tributaries;
(6) the western basin is an important ecosystem that
includes a number of distinct islands, channels, rivers, and
shoals that support dense populations of fish, wildlife, and
aquatic plants;
(7) coastal wetland of Lake Erie supports the largest
diversity of plant and wildlife species in the Great Lakes;
(8) because Lake Erie is located at a more southern
latitude than other Great Lakes, the moderate climate of Lake
Erie is appropriate for many species that are not found in or
along the northern Great Lakes;
(9) more than 300 species of plants, including 37
significant species, have been identified in the aquatic and
wetland habitats of the western basin;
(10) the shallow western basin of Lake Erie, extending from
the Lower Detroit River to Sandusky Bay, is home to the
greatest concentration of marshes in Lake Erie, including--
(A) Mouille, Metzger, and Magee marshes;
(B) the Maumee Bay wetland complex;
(C) the wetland complexes flanking Locust Point;
and
(D) the wetland in Sandusky Bay;
(11) the larger islands of the United States in western
Lake Erie have wetland in small embayments;
(12) the wetland in the western basin comprises some of the
most important waterfowl habitat in the Great Lakes;
(13) waterfowl, wading birds, shore birds, gulls and terns,
raptors, and perching birds use the wetland in the western
basin for migration, nesting, and feeding;
(14) hundreds of thousands of diving ducks stop to rest in
the Lake Erie area during autumn migration from Canada to
points east and south;
(15) the wetland of the western basin provides a major
stopover for sea ducks, such as migrating common goldeneye,
common mergansers, and ruddy duck;
(16) the international importance of Lake Erie is indicated
in the United States by congressional designation of the Ottawa
and Cedar Point National Wildlife Refuges;
(17)(A) Lake Erie has an international reputation for
walleye, perch, and bass fishing, recreational boating,
birding, photography, and duck hunting; and
(B) on an economic basis, tourism in the Lake Erie area
accounts for an estimated $1,500,000,000 in retail sales and
more than 50,000 jobs;
(18)(A) many of the 417,000 boats that are registered in
the State of Ohio are used in the western basin, in part to
fish for the estimated 10,000,000 walleye that migrate from the
lake to spawn; and
(B) that internationally renowned walleye fishery drives
much of the $2,000,000,000 sport fishing industry in the State
of Ohio;
(19) coastal wetland in the western basin has been
subjected to intense pressure for 150 years;
(20) prior to 1850, the western basin was part of an
extensive coastal marsh and swamp system consisting of
approximately 122,000 hectares that comprised a portion of the
Great Black Swamp;
(21) by 1951, only 12,407 wetland hectares remained in the
western basin;
(22) 50 percent of that acreage was destroyed between 1972
and 1987, leaving only approximately 5,000 hectares in
existence today;
(23) along the Michigan shoreline, coastal wetland was
reduced by 62 percent between 1916 and the early 1970s;
(24) the development of the city of Monroe, Michigan, has
had a particularly significant impact on the coastal wetland at
the mouth of the Raisin River;
(25) only approximately 100 hectares remain physically
unaltered today in an area in which, 70 years ago, marshes were
10 times more extensive;
(26) in addition to the actual loss of coastal wetland
acreage along the shores of Lake Erie, the quality of much
remaining dike wetland has been degraded by numerous stressors,
especially excessive loadings of sediments and nutrients,
contaminants, shoreline modification, exotic species, and the
diking of wetland; and
(27) protective peninsula beach systems, such as the former
Bay Point and Woodtick, at the border of Ohio and Michigan near
the mouth of the Ottawa River and Maumee Bay, have been eroded
over the years, exacerbating erosion along the shorelines and
negatively affecting breeding and spawning grounds.

SEC. 3. PURPOSE.

The purpose of this Act is to establish a national wildlife refuge
complex in the State of Ohio--
(1)(A) to protect the remaining high-quality fish and
wildlife habitats of the western basin before those habitats
are lost to further development; and
(B) to restore and enhance degraded wildlife habitats
associated with the western basin;
(2) in partnership with nongovernmental and private
organizations and private individuals dedicated to habitat
enhancement, to conserve, enhance, and restore the native
aquatic and terrestrial community characteristics of the
western basin (including associated fish, wildlife, and plant
species);
(3) to facilitate partnerships among the United States Fish
and Wildlife Service, Canadian national and provincial
authorities, State and local governments, local communities in
the United States and Canada, conservation organizations, and
other non-Federal entities to promote public awareness of the
resources of the western basin; and
(4) to advance the collective goals and priorities that--
(A) were established in the report entitled ''Great
Lakes Strategy 2002--A Plan for the New Millennium'',
developed by the United States Policy Committee,
comprised of Federal agencies (including the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration, the United States
Geological Survey, the Forest Service, and the Great
Lakes Fishery Commission) and State governments and
tribal governments in the Great Lakes basin; and
(B) include the goals of cooperating to protect and
restore the chemical, physical, and biological
integrity of the Great Lakes basin ecosystem.

Directs FEMA to use specified unobligated amounts in the National Predisaster Mitigation Fund for each of FY2016-FY2021 in carrying out this Act. Amends the Stafford Act to authorize the President, whether or not a major disaster is declared, to provide hazard mitigation assistance in any area affected by a fire for which assistance was otherwise provided. Directs FEMA to require FEMA, in evaluating a governor's request for major disaster assistance under the Public Assistance Program, to consider whether: (1) post-fire flooding occurred within five years of, and as a result of, a single wildfire event in the state; and (2) the state received fire management assistance related to the major disaster for which the governor is requesting assistance. Directs FEMA to create and make publicly available a post-fire recovery funding and resource guide for local communities.
