                         TITLE 16--CONSERVATION
 
   CHAPTER 1--NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES
 
          SUBCHAPTER XXXII--NEZ PERCE NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK
 
Sec. 281c. Inclusion of lands


(a) Indian trust land; Federal-ownership sites; cooperation with Nez 
        Perce Tribe and administrative agencies in research, services, 
        and facilities for public access, use and enjoyment, and 
        conservation of resources

    Indian trust land may be designated by the Secretary of the Interior 
for inclusion in the Nez Perce National Historical Park with the 
concurrence of the beneficial owner. Sites in Federal ownership under 
the administrative jurisdiction of other Government agencies may 
likewise be designated by the Secretary of the Interior for inclusion in 
the Nez Perce National Historical Park with the concurrence of the 
agency having administrative responsibility therefor, but such 
designation shall effect no transfer of administrative control unless 
the administering agency consents thereto. The Secretary of the Interior 
may cooperate with the Nez Perce Tribe or the administering agency, as 
the case may be, in research into and interpretation of the significance 
of any site so designated and in providing desirable interpretive 
services and facilities and other facilities required for public access 
to and use and enjoyment of the site and in conservation of the scenic 
and other resources thereof.

(b) Cooperative agreements with property owners of non-Federal property; 
        access; written consent for changes in properties, buildings, 
        and grounds; other provisions

    The Secretary of the Interior may enter into cooperative agreements 
with the owners of property which, under the provisions of this 
subchapter, may be designated for inclusion in Nez Perce National 
Historical Park as sites in non-Federal ownership, and he may assist in 
the preservation, renewal, and interpretation of the properties, 
provided the cooperative agreements shall contain, but not be limited 
to, provisions that: (1) the Secretary has right of access at all 
reasonable times to all public portions of the property for the purpose 
of conducting visitors through the property and interpreting it to the 
public, and (2) no changes or alterations shall be made in the 
properties, including buildings and grounds, without the written consent 
of the Secretary.
