This section creates the Land and Water Conservation Fund in the Treasury and identifies revenues deposited into it. It authorizes annual appropriations intended to bring the Fund’s income to at least $900,000,000, with a further source covering any shortfall.

(a) Establishment.— The Land and Water Conservation Fund is established in the Treasury.

(b) Deposits.— The following revenues and collections must be deposited in the Fund:

(1) All proceeds from disposing of surplus real property and related personal property under chapter 5 of title 40, except amounts otherwise obligated, credited, or paid under sections 572(a) or 574(a) through (c) of title 40, or under an appropriation Act that uses proceeds from transferring excess property or disposing of surplus property for necessary related expenses not otherwise provided for. This applies despite any law requiring those proceeds to go to the Treasury’s miscellaneous receipts. This chapter does not change existing laws or regulations about giving surplus real or personal property to schools, hospitals, States, or their political subdivisions.

(2) The amounts provided in section 200310 of this title.

(c) Authorization of Appropriations.—

(1) In general.— In addition to revenues and collections the Secretary estimates will be deposited under this section, Congress may annually appropriate from money in the Treasury that is not otherwise appropriated whatever amount is needed to make the Fund’s income at least $900,000,000 for each fiscal year.

(2) Receipts under Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.— If appropriations under paragraph (1) are not enough to make the Fund’s total annual income equal the amount described in paragraph (1), an amount sufficient to cover the rest must be credited to the Fund from revenues owed to the United States for deposit in the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1331 et seq.).
