The Three Kids Mine Remediation and Reclamation Act (; ) is a U.S. public law that authorizes the sale of approximately 950 acres of federal land to the city of Henderson, Nevada.〔 The land used to be a mine and now needs significant environmental remediation and reclamation.〔 The bill was introduced into the United States House of Representatives during the 113th United States Congress; a previous version () passed the House during the 112th United States Congress, but never received a vote in the Senate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gop.gov/bill/113/1/hr697 )〕 Cleanup efforts of the land are expected to cost between $300 million and $1.2 billion, depending on various estimates and cleanup targets.〔 ==Provisions/Elements of the bill== ''This summary is based largely on the summary provided by the Congressional Research Service, a public domain source.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://beta.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/house-bill/697 )〕 The Three Kids Mine Remediation and Reclamation Act would direct the United States Department of the Interior to convey to the Henderson Redevelopment Agency of the city of Henderson, Nevada, the Three Kids Mine Federal Land (the parcel or parcels of federal land consisting of approximately 948 specified acres) for the environmental remediation and reclamation of the Three Kids Mine Project Site.〔 The bill also would direct the Secretary of the Interior to administratively adjust the fair market value of the Three Kids Mine Federal Land based on the reasonable approximate assessment, remediation, and reclamation costs for the Three Kids Mine Project Area.〔 The bill would then require the Henderson Redevelopment Agency to pay the fair market value, if any for the Three Kids Mine Federal Land. The bill would adjust the boundary of the River Mountains Area of Critical Environmental Concern. It also releases the United States, upon making the conveyance, from any and all liabilities or claims of any kind or nature arising from the presence, release, or threat of release of any hazardous substance or mining related materials at the Three Kids Mine Project Site.〔 Finally, it would make the provisions of the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act of 1998 () inapplicable to land conveyed under this Act.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Three Kids Mine Remediation and Reclamation Act」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
