                               RESOLUTION


 
   Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1270) to amend the 
                   Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982.

    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution 
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule XXIII, declare the 
House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1270) to amend the 
Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982. The first reading of the bill shall 
be dispensed with. Points of order against consideration of the bill 
for failure to comply with section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act 
of 1974 are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and 
shall not exceed eighty minutes, with sixty minutes equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee 
on Commerce and twenty minutes equally divided and controlled by the 
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on Resources. 
After general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under 
the five-minute rule. It shall be in order to consider as an original 
bill for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule the 
amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on 
Commerce now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in the nature 
of a substitute shall be considered as read. Points of order against 
the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute for failure to 
comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI or section 306 of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974 are waived. Notwithstanding clause 5(c) of rule 
XXIII, no amendment to the committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute shall be in order except those printed in the report of the 
Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. Each amendment may be 
offered only in the order printed in the report, may be offered only by 
a Member designated in the report, shall be considered as read, shall 
be debatable for the time specified in the report equally divided and 
controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to 
amendment, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. Points of order 
against the last amendment printed in the report of the Committee on 
Rules for failure to comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI or section 306 
of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are waived. The Chairman of the 
Committee of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during further 
consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a recorded 
vote on any amendment; and (2) reduce to five minutes the minimum time 
for electronic voting on any postponed question that follows another 
electronic vote without intervening business, provided that the minimum 
time for electronic voting on the first in any series of questions 
shall be fifteen minutes. At the conclusion of consideration of the 
bill for amendment the Committee shall rise and report the bill to the 
House with such amendments as may have been adopted. Any Member may 
demand a separate vote in the House on any amendment adopted in the 
Committee of the Whole to the bill or to the committee amendment in the 
nature of a substitute. The previous question shall be considered as 
ordered on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage without 
intervening motion except one motion to recommit with or without 
instructions.
    Sec. 2. After passage of H.R. 1270, it shall be in order to take 
from the Speaker's table the bill S. 104 and to consider the Senate 
bill in the House. Points of order against consideration of the Senate 
bill for failure to comply with section 306 of the Congressional Budget 
Act of 1974 are waived. It shall be in order to move to strike all 
after the enacting clause of the Senate bill and to insert in lieu 
thereof the provisions of H.R. 1270 as passed by the House. If the 
motion is adopted and the Senate bill, as amended, is passed, then it 
shall be in order to move that the House insist on its amendment to S. 
104 and request a conference with the Senate thereon.
