                         TITLE 16--CONSERVATION
 
   CHAPTER 1--NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES
 
         SUBCHAPTER CXII--GRAND ISLAND NATIONAL RECREATION AREA
 
Sec. 460aaa-6. Management plan


(a) Development

    After the Secretary acquires fee title to at least 10,000 acres of 
land on Grand Island, the Secretary, within 30 months, shall develop 
with public involvement a comprehensive management plan for the national 
recreation area which implements the provisions of this subchapter.

(b) Special issues to be included

    The comprehensive management plan shall include, but not be limited 
to, the following issues:
        (1) Public recreation, including consideration of a range of 
    appropriate recreational opportunities consistent with the rustic, 
    natural, and historic character of the island, including, but not 
    limited to, a system of trails and campsites in conjunction with the 
    lodge referred to in paragraph (2) of this section.\1\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
        (2) The feasibility of a concessionaire constructed, operated, 
    and maintained rustic lodge and educational facility on no more than 
    55 acres located so as not to impair or alter existing scenic views 
    or the existing tree line and forested appearance of Grand Island 
    from any point within the boundaries of Pictured Rocks National 
    Lakeshore. The plan shall address the economics of constructing, 
    operating, and maintaining such a facility by a concessionaire or 
    other entity; access by roads and waters; utilities; waste water 
    treatment, garbage disposal, and other associated environmental 
    impacts; management operations including construction, operation and 
    maintenance; and the potential for permitted uses by government 
    agencies, profit and nonprofit organizations, or individuals.
        (3) Prescriptions concerning any management and harvest of 
    timber, subject to section 460aaa-2(b)(4) of this title.
        (4) General design criteria for new facilities or the 
    improvement of existing facilities that are compatible with the 
    rustic, natural, and historic character of the island and their 
    topographic and geological location, and that do not impair scenic 
    views from the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
        (5) Water transportation from the mainland to the national 
    recreation area by a concessionaire or other entity.
        (6) The feasibility of concessionaire constructed, operated, and 
    maintained docking facilities in the national recreation area and on 
    the mainland.
        (7) An inventory and assessment of existing traditional roads, 
    the level of road use, access needs, and any vehicular regulation 
    and management needed to protect the resources of the national 
    recreation area while, at the same time, providing reasonable access 
    to private property.

(c) Consultation

    In preparing the comprehensive management plan, the Secretary shall 
consult with the appropriate State and local government officials, 
provide for full public participation, and consider the views of all 
interested parties, organizations, and individuals.
