This law lets Congress fund Agriculture and Interior to run the Recreation Area. Agriculture may spend the money like TVA used to, including on campgrounds and supplies. But Agriculture cannot spend it on one specific activity described elsewhere in the law.
There are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary* of Agriculture such sums as are necessary to—
permit the Secretary to exercise administrative jurisdiction over the Recreation Area* under this subchapter; and
administer the Recreation Area as a unit of the National Forest System.
There are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary of the Interior such sums as are necessary to carry out activities within the Recreation Area.
Except as provided in paragraph (2), the Secretary of Agriculture may expend amounts appropriated to carry out this subchapter in a manner consistent with the authorities exercised by the Tennessee Valley Authority before the transfer of the Recreation Area to the administrative jurisdiction of the Secretary of Agriculture, including campground management and visitor services, paid advertisement, and procurement of food and supplies for resale purposes.
The Secretary of Agriculture shall not use amounts appropriated to carry out this subchapter for an activity described in section 460lll–24(b) of this title.
