Summary

The Department of the Interior may receive up to $21,000,000 from October 1, 1986, through September 30, 2006. The money is for creating, building, running, and maintaining the program and for travel costs under sections 460ss–2(j) and 460ss–3(i). The funds remain available until spent or until October 1, 2006, whichever comes first. At least 50 percent of the program’s development and start-up costs must come from non-Federal sources, such as state or local governments, private groups, or individuals. The Secretary will count cash, donated goods or property, and in-kind help (including volunteer work) as part of that share. The Secretary decides how to value those donations, and those decisions are final and cannot be challenged in court. The Secretary must make rules about what volunteers must know and how donations and property are valued. Federal money given to a state or local government cannot count as a non-Federal contribution.
