FIELDING\nFROM:\nJOHN G. ROBERTS OPR\nSUBJECT:\nEnrolled Bill S. 746 - Establishment of the\nIllinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage\nCorridor, and Enlargement of the Jefferson\nNational Expansion Memorial\nRichard Darman has asked for comments on the above-\nreferenced enrolled bill by 9:00 a.m. today. Title I of the\nbill would establish a \"national heritage corridor\" along\nthe Illinois and Michigan canal, which links the Illinois\nRiver and Lake Michigan, and would create a Commission to\nmanage the corridor from a historical and preservationist\nperspective. The Commission would consist of the Director\nof the National Park Service and 18 others appointed by the\nSecretary of the Interior. It presents no Appointments\nClause problems. The Commission would terminate after ten\nyears, unless extended for an additional five with the\napproval of the Secretary and the Governor of Illinois.\nJustice has opined that the Governor cannot block an\nextension of this Federal commission if the Secretary\napproves, and recommends that the Secretary be advised to\nignore any attempted \"veto\" by the Governor. I agree. The\nissue is not likely to be significant since, as Justice\nnotes, the Governor is unlikely to block extension of the\nCommission.\nTitle II of the bill would authorize the Secretary to\nacquire 100 acres in East St. Louis, to add to the Gateway\nArch memorial in St. Louis. Title II also creates a twenty-\nmember Commission to submit recommendations to the Secretary\non development of the memorial. Interior does not think\nthe land in question is suitable for inclusion in the\nnational park system, and does not plan to exercise the\nacquisition authority if the bill is signed. The role of the\nCommission is purely advisory, so the method of appointing\nits members does not present Appointments Clause problems.\nOMB recommends approval of the bill, and the other affected\nagencies have no objection to approval. I have reviewed the\nmemorandum for the President prepared by Director Stockman,\nand the bill itself, and have no objection to approval.\nDocument No. 216800SS\nWHITE HOUSE STAFFING MEMORANDUM\n8/20/84\nDATE:\nACTION/CONCURRENCE/COMMENT DUE BY: 9:00 A.M. 8/21/84\nSUBJECT: ENROLLED BILL S. 746 - ESTABLISHMENT OF THE ILLINOIS AND MICHIGAN\nCANAL NATIONAL HERITAGE CORRIDOR, AND ENLARGEMENT OF THE JEFFERSON\nNATIONAL EXPANSION MEMORIAL\nACTION FYI\nACTION FYI\nVICE PRESIDENT\nMURPHY\nMEESE\nOGLESBY\nBAKER\nROGERS\nDEAVER\nSPEAKES\nSTOCKMAN\nSVAHN\nDARMAN\nP\n185\nVERSTANDIG\nFIELDING\nWHITTLESEY\nFULLER\nELLIOTT\nHERRINGTON\nHICKEY\nMcFARLANE\nMcMANUS\nREMARKS:\nMay we have your comments on the attached Enrolled Bill by 9:00 a.m.\ntomorrow, August 21.

Congress first authorized\nconstruction of such a canal in 1822, and by 1848 the 100-mile\nIllinois and Michigan Canal was completed. Over the years, the\nCanal has served as a catalyst to the industrialization of the area.\nToday the Canal is a registered National Historic Landmark. Three\nother such Landmarks are located along the banks of the Canal, as\nwell as about 200 structures listed on the National Register of\nHistoric Places and 39 areas listed on the Illinois Natural Areas\ninventory.\nTo preserve the area's historic and natural resources while\nfostering economic growth, title I of S. 746 would establish the\nIllinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor and a\nCommission to manage the Corridor. The Illinois and Michigan Canal\nNational Heritage Corridor Commission would have 19 members,\nincluding the Director of the National Park Service and 18 others\nappointed by the Secretary of the Interior. The Commission would be\nrequired to (1) manage the Corridor for both preservation and\neconomic growth purposes; (2) develop interpretive materials; (3)\nprovide technical assistance to State, local, and private landowners\nin the Corridor; (4) prepare an economic impact analysis before\nfunding any land acquisition or major capital improvement project;\nand (5) prepare annual reports on its activities for the Governor of\nIllinois and the Secretary of the Interior.\nThe Commission would terminate after 10 years, unless extended for\nan additional five years with the approval of the Secretary of the\nInterior and the Governor of Illinois. With regard to approval of\nsuch an extension, Justice advises that only the Secretary, and not\nthe Governor, could constitutionally exercise the disapproval\nauthority provided by the bill. Justice concedes that it would be\nvery unlikely for the Governor to disagree with the Commission\nshould it seek an extension; nevertheless Justice asks that you\nnotify the Secretary of the Interior in writing that \"he should\nignore as legally irrelevant any position the Governor may take on\nthat issue.\"\nTitle I of S. 746 would also require the Secretary of the Interior\nto (1) provide technical assistance to the Commission; (2) detail\ntwo employees to the Commission; (3) prepare, in consultation with\nthe Commission, inventories of various resources of the Corridor;\nand (4) convey all Federal interests in the Canal to the State of\nIllinois, subject to reversion to the United States should the Canal\nbe used for other than public purposes.\n3\nFinally, title I of the enrolled bill would (1) require other\nFederal agencies conducting programs affecting the Corridor to\nconsult the Commission and the Secretary of the Interior to avoid\nadversely affecting the Corridor; (2) state that establishment of\nthe Corridor would not affect any environmental, occupational,\nsafety, or other law or regulation in effect in the Corridor; and\n(3) authorize annual appropriations of $250,000 to the Commission\nto carry out its duties, and such sums as are necessary to the\nSecretary of the Interior for similar purposes.\nJefferson National Expansion Memorial\nTitle II of S. 746 would authorize the Secretary of the Interior\nto acquire 100 acres of land on the eastern bank of the\nMississippi River in East Saint Louis, Illinois, to be added to\nthe Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in Saint Louis,\nMissouri, where the Gateway Arch is located. Title II would also\ncreate a 20-member Commission, including the Governors of\nIllinois and Missouri; six other State and local officials; six\nappointees of the Secretary of the Interior; and the Secretaries\nof the Interior, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation,\nthe Treasury, Commerce, and the Smithsonian Institution. The\nCommission would prepare a development and management plan for\nthe Memorial for consideration by the Secretary, including an\nexamination of the feasibility of establishing a museum of\nAmerican ethnic culture as part of the Memorial. The Commission\nwould terminate after ten years. Under title II, the Secretary\ncould approve the plan only if he finds that:\n-- it is consistent with the Saint Louis, Missouri, portion of\nthe Memorial;\n-- there are binding commitments, from sources other than those\nauthorized by S. 746, to fund land acquisition and\ndevelopment sufficient to implement the plan; and\n-- there are binding commitments to fund all management costs\nof the East Saint Louis portion that exceed $350,000 per\nyear.\nPending submission of the plan, any Federal agency conducting\nactivities in East Saint Louis would be required to consult with\nthe Secretary and, to the maximum extent practicable, act to\navoid adverse effects on the Memorial. Finally, title II would\nauthorize, subject to approval of the plan, appropriations of $1\nmillion for land acquisition and $1.25 million for development.\n4\nLegislative History\nTitle I of the enrolled bill reflects the major recommendations\nmade by the Administration on S. 746 and the House companion\nmeasure, H.R. 2014, sponsored by Representative Corcoran\n(R-Illinois) and 21 others. However, in written reports to both\nHouses from the Department of the Interior, and in a policy\nstatement to the House during floor consideration of its bill,\nthe Administration expressed serious concerns with title II,\nnoting that:\n-- the East Saint Louis tract of land is not of national\nsignificance;\n-- the land is not suitable for Federal acquisition or\ninclusion in the National Park System, due to its industrial\nnature; and\n-- the advisory Commission is unnecessary and administratively\nburdensome.\nThe Congress responded by (1) lowering the acreage authorized for\nacquisition in East Saint Louis from 350 to 100 acres;\n(2) lowering the land acquisition funding authorization from\n$2.75 million to $1 million; (3) changing the role of the\nMemorial Commission to make it more advisory in nature; and (4)\nconditioning the Secretary's approval of the Commission's plan on\nhis finding that non-Federal funding is available for acquisition\nand development costs, as explained above. As Representative\nCorcoran stated during final House floor consideration, these\nchanges were incorporated as a result of an agreement between\nRepresentatives Price and Simon (both D-Illinois), Seiberling\n(D-Ohio), and Senators Percy and McClure.\nAgency Views\nThe Department of the Interior expresses serious reservations\nabout title II of S. 746 in its views letter on the enrolled\nbill. Interior reiterates its opposition to inclusion of the\nEast Saint Louis site in the National Park System. Interior also\nnotes, however, that the enrolled bill is more discretionary than\nearlier versions of the bill, and that \"we would anticipate no\nexercise of the Federal acquisition authority contained in title\nII.\" Interior concludes, therefore, that given its support for\ntitle I of the enrolled bill and the discretionary nature of the\nfinal version of title II, its remaining concerns regarding title\nII do not warrant disapproval of the bill.\nJustice advises in its views letter on the enrolled bill that\n\"The methods in which the members of the two Commissions are\nappointed do not raise a constitutional problem.\" Accordingly,\nJustice defers to Interior for a recommendation on S. 746.\n5\nConclusion and Recommendation\nI concur in Interior's assessment that title II of S. 746 is\nundesirable and would, if fully implemented, involve the Federal\nGovernment in activities better left to the private sector. I\nalso agree, however, that given the discretionary nature of title\nII, its potential problems can be avoided and do not outweigh the\nAdministration's support for the Illinois and Michigan Canal.\nAccordingly, I recommend that you approve S. 746, which passed\nboth Houses of the Congress by voice vote.\nDavid A.

Chew\nStaff Secretary\nMASSACHUSETTS OFFICE THE PRESIDENT STATES UNITED\nEXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT\nOFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET\nWASHINGTON, D.C. 20503\nSEP 25 1985\nMEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT\nSubject: Enrolled Bill S. 1514 - Approval of Funds for\nInterstate Highway and Interstate Substitute\nProjects\nSponsor - Sen. Symms (R) Idaho\nLast Day for Action\nPurpose\nApproves the release of approximately $4.8 billion of interstate\nconstruction funds, interstate substitute project funds, and\nminimum allocation funds available to the States for obligation\nduring fiscal year 1986.\nAgency Recommendations\nOffice of Management and Budget\nApproval\nDepartment of Transportation\nApproval (Signing\nstatement attached)\nDiscussion\nS. 1514 gives Congressional approval for the Department of\nTransportation to release funds to the States -- in amounts as\nproposed by the Administration -- for interstate highway\nconstruction, interstate substitute projects, and minimum\nallocations to the States. These funds will be available for\nobligation during fiscal year 1986. (Although the enrolled bill\nrefers to both fiscal years 1986 and 1987, the practical effect\nof the language is to release funds for obligation during 1986.)\nApproval of S. 1514, which passed both Houses by voice vote, will\nresult in the release to the States of $4.8 billion. Of the $4.8\nbillion, the funds would be apportioned as follows: (1) $3.64\nbillion for interstate highway construction; (2) $538 million for\ninterstate substitute highway projects; and (3) $650 million for\nthe minimum allocation program. Interstate substitute projects\nare non-interstate highway and transit projects that a State may\nundertake if it has chosen to withdraw yet-to-be constructed\nsegments from the interstate system and apply the earmarked funds\nto other projects. The actual release of funds for substitute\n2\ntransit projects will, however, be delayed until Congress\ndetermines through the appropriations process the specific amount\nto be released. The minimum allocation program is a statutory\nrequirement which increases the amount of funds for States that\ncontribute more in gasoline and other road-related taxes than\nthey receive from the Highway Trust Fund.\nConclusion\nIn recommending your approval of S. 1514, the Department of\nTransportation has prepared a signing statement, which is\nattached to its views letter, for your consideration. Generally,\nthe statement expresses your appreciation to Secretary Dole and\nMembers of Congress for their efforts in securing the timely\npassage of a clean bill (i.e., one unencumbered with special\ninterest projects). The statement also advises that the\nAdministration is currently preparing legislation to reauthorize\nthe Federal-aid highway program, which expires on September 30,\n1986, and emphasizes the need to keep this legislation free of\nspecial interest projects when it is acted on by Congress.\nFinally, the Department of Transportation recommends that you\nsign the enrolled bill before October 1, thereby permitting the\ntimely release of funds to the States.\nAssistant James Director\nfor\nBegislative Reference\nEnclosures\nNinety-ninth Congress of the United States of America\nAT THE FIRST SESSION\nBegun and held at the City of Washington on Thursday, the third day of January,\none thousand nine hundred and eighty-five\nAn Art\nTo approve the Interstate Cost Estimate and Interstate Substitute Cost Estimate.\nBe it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the\nUnited States of America in Congress assembled,\nAPPROVAL OF INTERSTATE COST ESTIMATE FOR FISCAL YEAR 1987\nSECTION 1. The Secretary of Transportation shall apportion for the\nfiscal year ending September 30, 1987, the sums authorized to be\nappropriated for such period by section 108(b) of the Federal-Aid\nHighway Act of 1956, as amended, for expenditure on the National\nSystem of Interstate and Defense Highways using the apportion-\nment factors contained in revised table 5 of the Committee Print\nNumbered 99-68 of the Committee on Environment and Public\nWorks of the Senate.\nAPPROVAL OF INTERSTATE SUBSTITUTE COST ESTIMATE FOR FISCAL YEAR\n1986\nSEC. 2. The Secretary of Transportation shall apportion for the\nfiscal year ending September 30, 1986, the sums to be apportioned\nfor such year under section 103(e)(4) of title 23, United States Code,\nfor expenditure on substitute highway and transit projects, using\nthe apportionment factors contained in the Committee Print Num-\nbered 99-69 of the Committee on Environment and Public Works\nand the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the\nSenate.\nSpeaker of the House of Representatives.\nVice President of the United States and\nPresident of the Senate.\nPROPOSED SIGNING STATEMENT\nToday I am signing S. 1514 which will approve the\nInterstate Cost Estimate (ICE) and the Interstate Substitute\nCost Estimate (ISCE). Signing this bill will permit the\ntimely apportionment of about $4.8 billion in Federal-aid\nhighway funds. Our Administration has consistently urged the\npassage of a \"clean\" ICE and ISCE approval bill to permit the\napportionment of about $4.8 billion in highway user fees. In\nthe past two years, delays in approving the ICE and ISCE have\ncaused late apportionments. These late apportionments have\ntended to disrupt highway construction plans and have impeded\nthe timely completion of the Interstate System. We believe\nthat user fees are an appropriate means to fund public works\nprojects. The enactment of this bill keeps faith with\nhighway users by using their highway taxes for highway\nconstruction in a timely and orderly manner.\nI would like to express my appreciation to the Members\nof Congress, to Secretary Dole and to all others whose\ncooperative efforts have led to enactment of this bill.\nThese cooperative efforts have led to the passage of a\n\"clean\" ICE and ISCE unencumbered with special interest\nprojects which disturb State and local priorities.\nThe Administration is now preparing legislation to\nreauthorize the Federal-aid highway program and complete the\nInterstate system by the early 1990's. We must continue to\nkeep the highway program free of costly special interest\nprojects which hamper our ability to fund the national\nFederal-interest highway system. Secretary Dole and I hope\nthat Congress will move promptly to pass a reauthorization\nbill that I can sign into law.\nIt is with great pleasure that I sign S. 1514.\nTHE WHITE HOUSE\nWASHINGTON\nSeptember 30, 1985\nMEMORANDUM FOR DAVID L.

These AWS\narrangements generally allow employees more flexible arrival and\ndeparture times for work, under a variety of plans within the\nstandard 8-hour day and 40-hour workweek (\"flexitime\"), or\nprovide for \"compressed\" schedules under which employees work\nlonger hours a day for a shorter workweek, such as four 10-hour\ndays a week.\nThe Administration has proposed a permanent extension of this\nprogram, which has been passed by the House in H.R. 1534.\nHowever, the Senate has not yet acted, and an interim measure,\nP.L. 99-69, temporarily extended the program through Monday,\nSeptember 30, 1985.\n2\nH.R. 3414, which passed both Houses by voice vote, would\nsubstitute October 31, 1985, as the new sunset date for the\nexisting program.

Foley (D) and Morrison (R) Washington\nLast Day for Action\nOctober 30, 1985 - Wednesday\nPurpose\nTransfers to the Colville Business Council any undistributed\nportion of certain judgments awarded the Confederated Tribes of\nthe Colville Reservation in the State of Washington.\nAgency Recommendations\nOffice of Management and Budget\nApproval\nDepartment of the Interior\nApproval\nDepartment of Justice\nNo objection\nDiscussion\nThe Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation in the State\nof Washington were awarded judgments from the Indian Claims\nCommission under dockets 161, 222, and 224 in 1965. The plan for\nthe use and distribution of these judgment funds became effective\nin 1976, and it included the set-aside of funds for a per capita\ndistribution to tribal members.\nStarting in 1978 and thereafter, Indian juogment distribution\nplans routinely provide that any balance remaining in the\ntreasury, after the allocation of per capita payments,\nautomatically revert to the governing body of the tribe.\nHowever, since the distribution plan for awards from the above\nmentioned dockets predates this change, legislation is needed to\nallow the remaining balances to be transferred to the Colville\nBusiness Council. H.R. 2174 would provide the necessary\nauthority to transfer the remaining judgment funds and accrued\ninterest, which as of March 31, 1985, came to $211,209.\n2\nH.R. 2174 includes a requirement for Secretary of the Interior\napproval prior to the expenditure of transferred funds by the\nColville Business Council. In a report of August 23, 1985, to\nthe House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee, Interior\nrecommended enactment of H.R. 2174, provided that the post-hoc\nrequirement for Secretarial approval be deleted because of the\npotential administrative difficulty. While the bill was not\namended to incorporate this recommendation, Interior's enrolled\nbill letter states that the Department's concern with this\nrequirement has been alleviated because the Council will use the\nfunds for ongoing tribal programs and has pledged to work closely\nwith the Department in the expenditure of the transferred\njudgment funds. In recommending approval, Interior concludes\nthat II the circumstances of the proposed transfer are\nsufficiently unique that our approval of the post-hoc requirement\nof Secretarial approval will not be construed as a precedent.\n#\nH.R. 2174 passed both Houses of the Congress by voice vote.\nC.\nMAR\nCames C.
