Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mountain Park Project, Elwha River Amendments, and Recreation Management Act Amendments The subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 2:05 p.m., in room SD-366, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Bill Bradley, presiding. Opening Statement of Hon. Bill Bradley, U.S. Senator From New Jersey Senator BRADLEY. The subcommittee will come to order. I would like to welcome you to the Subcommittee on Water and Power's second hearing on a diverse cross-section of reclamation issues addressed in several bills pending before the subcommittee. These bills include S. 2253, to modify the Mountain Park Project in Oklahoma and for other purposes; and S. 2262, to amend the Elwha River Ecosystem and Fisheries Restoration Act; and S. 2266, to amend the Recreation Management Act of 1992. These bills seek to amend laws that passed Congress at the end of the 102nd session in 1992. Two of the bills, S. 2253 and S. 2266, amend titles of the Reclamation Authorization and Adjustment Act of 1992. Title 31 of Public Law 102-575, authorized by the Bureau of Reclamation to either accept a prepayment of or to reschedule capital repayment obligations of Mountain Park Conservancy District in Oklahoma under very specific conditions. Title 28 of that Act directed the Commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation to make any regulations necessary to ensure the protection, comfort, and wellbeing of the public using Reclamation lands and to ensure the protection of its resource values. The third bill, S. 2262, amends the Elwha River Ecosystems and Fisheries Restoration Act. Congress took a significant step with the Elwha River Act by creating a legislative resolution to a difficult and stubborn legal cattle on the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington. A broad-based coalition supported that bill, including timber companies, fishermen, paper mills, Native Americans, environmentalists, city officials, park administrators, and economic development specialists.
