There is hereby established within the Department of the Interior a grant program for the preservation of our nation’s most historic battleships. Amounts received through grants under this section shall be used for the preservation of our nation’s most historic battleships in a manner that is self-sustaining and has an educational component. To be eligible for a grant under this section, an entity shall— submit an application under procedures prescribed by the Secretary; match the amount of the grant, on a 1-to-1 basis, with non-Federal assets from non-Federal sources, which may include cash or durable goods and materials fairly valued as determined by the Secretary; maintain records as may be reasonably necessary to fully disclose— the amount and the disposition of the proceeds of the grant; the total cost of the project for which the grant is made; and other records as may be required by the Secretary, including such records as will facilitate an effective accounting for project funds; and provide access to the Secretary for the purposes of any required audit and examination of any books, documents, papers, and records of the entity.
In this section, the term most historic battleship means a battleship that is— between 75 and 115 years old; listed on the National Register of Historic Places; and located within the State for which it was named. The authorities contained in this section shall be in addition to, and shall not be construed to supercede or modify those contained in the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.C. 470–470x–6). No Federal funds made available to carry out this section may be used to acquire any real property, or any interest in any real property, without the written consent of the owner (or owners) of that property or interest in property.
The authority granted by this section shall not constitute a Federal designation or have any effect on private property ownership. The authority to make grants under this section expires on September 30, 2025.
