In order to fulfill the Federal responsibility to
assist with the provision of educational services
to federally connected children in a manner that

because certain activities of the Federal Govern-
ment, such as activities to fulfill the respon-
sibilities of the Federal Government with re-
spect to Indian tribes and activities under sec-
tion 4001 of title 50, place a financial burden on
the local educational agencies serving areas
where such activities are carried out, and to

(1) experience a substantial and continuing
financial burden due to the acquisition of real
property by the United States;
(2) educate children who reside on Federal
property and whose parents are employed on
Federal property;

eral property; or
