Authorizes the Commonwealth to take title to federal lands containing environmental contamination if the United States agrees to indemnify the Commonwealth for associated liabilities and clean-up costs or otherwise provides satisfactory assurances that all corrective action necessary to protect human health and the environment will be taken at the sole expense of the United States.
