_______________________________________________________________________

                                 AN ACT


 
To provide for the conveyance of certain real property in South Dakota 
to the State of South Dakota with indemnification by the United States 
                  Government, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Homestake Mine Conveyance Act of 
2001''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) the United States is among the leading nations in the 
        world in conducting basic scientific research;
            (2) that leadership position strengthens the economy and 
        national defense of the United States and provides other 
        important benefits;
            (3) the Homestake Mine in Lead, South Dakota, owned by the 
        Homestake Mining Company of California, is approximately 8,000 
        feet deep and is situated in a unique physical setting that is 
        ideal for carrying out certain types of particle physics and 
        other research;
            (4) the Mine has been selected by the National Underground 
        Science Laboratory Committee, an independent panel of 
        distinguished scientists, as the preferred site for the 
        construction of the National Underground Science Laboratory;
            (5) such a laboratory would be used to conduct scientific 
        research that would be funded and recognized as significant by 
        the United States;
            (6) the establishment of the laboratory is in the national 
        interest, and would substantially improve the capability of the 
        United States to conduct important scientific research;
            (7) for economic reasons, Homestake intends to cease 
        operations at the Mine in 2001;
            (8) on cessation of operations of the Mine, Homestake 
        intends to implement reclamation actions that would preclude 
        the establishment of a laboratory at the Mine;
            (9) Homestake has advised the State that, after cessation 
        of operations at the Mine, instead of closing the entire Mine, 
        Homestake is willing to donate the underground portion of the 
        Mine and certain other real and personal property of 
        substantial value at the Mine for use as the National 
        Underground Science Laboratory;
            (10) use of the Mine as the site for the laboratory, 
        instead of other locations under consideration, would result in 
        a savings of millions of dollars for the Federal Government;
            (11) if the Mine is selected as the site for the 
        laboratory, it is essential that closure of the Mine not 
        preclude the location of the laboratory at the Mine;
            (12) Homestake is unwilling to donate, and the State is 
        unwilling to accept, the property at the Mine for the 
        laboratory if Homestake and the State would continue to have 
        potential liability with respect to the transferred property; 
        and
            (13) to secure the use of the Mine as the location for the 
        laboratory, and to realize the benefits of the proposed 
        laboratory, it is necessary for the United States to--
                    (A) assume a portion of any potential future 
                liability of Homestake concerning the Mine; and
                    (B) address potential liability associated with the 
                operation of the laboratory.
