Amends Federal law to revise provisions concerning rules and regulations promulgated by the Secretary of Agriculture with respect to the use of motorized and nonmotorized river craft on the Snake River within the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area in Oregon and Idaho to: (1) permit such river craft access to, and use of, the entire River within the Area at all times during the year; (2) provide that concurrent use by motorized and nonmotorized river craft shall not be considered a conflict; (3) allow use of the commercial and private river craft to continue throughout each year at levels not less than those occurring in an average of the three calendar years preceding the enactment of this Act and in daily and seasonal use patterns similar to those experienced in those years; and (4) allow owners of private property to use such river craft on the River within the Area for traveling purposes to or from their property in their usual and accustomed manner.
