Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) an appropriate commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Mariana campaign of World War II should be planned by the United States in conjunction with the Governments of Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands; and (2) the Secretary of the Interior should take steps to ensure the completion of visitor centers at the War in the Pacific National Historic Park, Guam (Park), and the American Memorial Park, Saipan, by June 15, 1994, for the historical interpretation of the campaign. Authorizes the Secretary, within the boundaries of the Park, to: (1) construct a monument to commemorate, by individual name, the people of Guam, living and dead, who suffered personal injury, forced labor, forced marches, internment or death incident to enemy occupation of Guam between December 8, 1941, and August 10, 1944; and (2) implement programs to interpret experiences of the people of Guam during World War II, including, but not limited to, oral histories of those people of Guam who experienced the occupation. Requires the Secretary, through the Director of the National Park Service, to develop and submit to specified congressional committees a report containing updated cost estimates for the development of the Park, a general plan to implement such development, and at a minimum, cost estimates for the design and construction of the monument. Requires the Secretary to take steps to preserve and protect various World War II vintage weapons and fortifications which exist within the Park. Increases the authorization of appropriations for both Parks.
