The Secretary of Defense can build a cryptology museum and education center at Fort Meade. A nonprofit foundation can help design, build, and run it. Fees collected go into a special fund to pay for running the Center.

(a) Establishment: The Secretary of Defense can set up, at a location open to the public at Fort George G. Meade, the "Cyber Center for Education and Innovation-Home of the National Cryptologic Museum" (called "the Center"). The Center displays and stores materials about the National Security Agency, its earlier and later organizations, and the history of cryptology. It can include meeting, conference, and classroom space to support education, training, public outreach, and other purposes the Secretary approves. (b) Design, Construction, and Operation: The Secretary can agree with the National Cryptologic Museum Foundation, a nonprofit ("the Foundation"), to design, build, and run the Center. (c) Acceptance Authority: (1) Acceptance of facility — If the Foundation builds the Center under that agreement, once a phase (or the whole Center) is finished to the Secretary's satisfaction and the Foundation has met its other obligations, the Secretary can accept it, and ownership then belongs fully to the United States. (2) Acceptance of services — Despite the usual rule in section 1342 of Title 31, the Secretary can accept services from the Foundation for designing, building, and running the Center. Foundation staff are not treated as federal employees. (d) Fees and User Charges: (1) The Secretary can charge fees — including rental, user, conference, and concession fees — to cover the cost of using the Center's facilities and property. (2) That money goes into the Fund described in (e). (e) Fund: (1) Once the Secretary formally accepts the Center, a Treasury fund is created, called the Cyber Center for Education and Innovation-Home of the National Cryptologic Museum Fund. (2) The Fund holds (A) the fees and charges from (d), and (B) any other money the operation of the Center brings in. (3) The Secretary can use the Fund to benefit and operate the Center, including day-to-day costs and buying books, manuscripts, artwork, historical artifacts, drawings, plans, models, and retired or obsolete combat equipment. (4) Money in the Fund stays available with no yearly deadline.
