CHAPTER 1--NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES
SUBCHAPTER XXXV--WOLF TRAP NATIONAL PARK FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS
Sec. 284d. Cooperative agreement with Foundation for
presentation of programs
(a) Terms and conditions for Federal assistance
The Secretary is authorized and directed to enter into a cooperative
agreement with the Foundation respecting the presentation of performing
arts and related educational and cultural programs at the Center, and in
such other areas of the park as may be agreed to. The Secretary may
provide technical and financial assistance under such a cooperative
agreement for such purposes, pursuant to such terms and conditions as he
deems appropriate.
(b) Prerequisite conditions
As a condition of entering into a cooperative agreement under this
section, the Secretary shall require that--
(1) the Foundation maintain the insurance described in section
284c(c)(3) of this title; and
(2) the Foundation maintain its status as an organization
described in section 501(c)(3) of title 26 and exempt from taxation
under section 501(a) of title 26.
(c) Required terms and conditions; contractual authority for
administration through nonconflicting agreement with other
organization or entity
A cooperative agreement under this section shall provide that--
(1) the Secretary and the Comptroller General of the United
States or their duly authorized representatives shall have access to
any pertinent books, documents, papers, and records of the
Foundation to make audits, examinations, excerpts, and transcripts;
(2) the Foundation shall prepare an annual report to the
Secretary, which shall also be submitted to the appropriate
committees of the United States House of Representatives and the
United States Senate, summarizing the activities of the previous
year (together with a comparison of goals and objectives with actual
accomplishments) and presenting a plan for the forthcoming year;
(3) such cooperative agreement may be terminated at the
convenience of the United States if the Secretary determines that
such termination is required in the public interest; and
(4) the Foundation will maintain accounts for Foundation
activities outside of the Park separate from Foundation accounts for
presentation of performing arts and related programs presented at
the Center and other areas of the Park.
The cooperative agreement shall contain such other terms and conditions
as the Secretary deems appropriate. Until such cooperative agreement is
entered into, nothing in this section shall be construed to affect or
impair the validity of the agreement between the National Park Service
and the Foundation dated September 16, 1980. Such agreement shall remain
in force and effect until terminated under the terms and conditions of
such agreement or until an agreement is entered into under this section.
Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the authority of
the Secretary under any other provision of law to enter into a contract
or an agreement, not conflicting with the cooperative agreement
described in this section, with any other organization or entity with
respect to the administration of the park.
