Such terminal may combine the new railroad passenger station described in paragraph (4) of section 102(a) of Public Law 90-264, as amended, and accommodations for such other modes of transportation as the Secretary deems appropriate. To the extent practicable, the Secretary shall incorporate into the design and plans for such intermodal transportation terminal features which will make such facility a model facility and which will attract private investors willing to undertake the development and construction of the terminal. "(2) Notwithstanding any provision of Public Law 90-264, as amended, in order to facilitate construction of such model intermodal transportation terminal, the Secretary of the Interior shall lease or transfer such space (including air space), which is not required for purposes of the National Visitor Center, as the Secretary of the Interior holds or may acquire north of the Union Station Building to such party or parties and upon such terms and conditions as the Secretary deems appropriate, notwithstanding section 321 of the Act of June 30, 1932 (40 U.S.C. 303(b)).

The construction of the intermodal terminal shall be completed within 5 years following enactment of this subsection. "(4) There is authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary, for the purposes of carrying out this subsection, such sums as are necessary, not to exceed $5,000,000. "(5) Nothing in this subsection (h) shall be construed as relieving the Washington Terminal Company, its successors or assigns, from the obligation to finance and construct a new railroad passenger station in compliance with the terms of paragraph (4) of section 102(a) of Public Law 90-264 (82 Stat. 43)." SEC. 16.
