- (a) **Offer—** In the case of each individual who—
  - (1) sold residential property between 1966 and 1968 to the United States for purposes of the [park](/usc/16/410r–5.md?p=c-3), and
  - (2) continues to occupy such residential property pursuant to a residential [special use permit](/usc/16/539m–1.md?p=13) as of October 24, 1992,

  the [Secretary](/usc/16/410r–5.md?p=c-1) of the Interior shall offer to extend such residential [special use permit](/usc/16/539m–1.md?p=13) for a term ending on the death of such individual or such individual’s spouse, whichever is later.

- (b) **Terms and conditions—** Any residential [special use permit](/usc/16/539m–1.md?p=13) extended pursuant to [subsection (a)](#a) shall—
  - (1) permit the reasonable residential use and occupancy of the property by the individual to whom such permit is granted and such individual’s spouse; and
  - (2) be subject to such terms and conditions as the [Secretary](/usc/16/410r–5.md?p=c-1) may prescribe (including termination) to ensure that the permit does not unreasonably diminish the values of the [park](/usc/16/410r–5.md?p=c-3).

  The extension of any such residential [special use permit](/usc/16/539m–1.md?p=13) shall be conditional upon the payment by the individual holding such permit of an annual fee in the same amount as required as of July 1, 1991.
