[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
[H. Res. 352 Engrossed in House (EH)]

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                      November 3, 1999.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker 
may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the 
bill (H.R. 2389) to restore stability and predictability to the annual payments 
made to States and counties containing National Forest System lands and public 
domain lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management for use by the counties 
for the benefit of public schools, roads, and other purposes. The first reading 
of the bill shall be dispensed with. All points of order against consideration 
of the bill are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall 
not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Agriculture. After general debate the bill 
shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu of the 
amendment recommended by the Committee on Agriculture now printed in the bill, 
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 
printed in the Congressional Record and numbered 1 pursuant to clause 8 of rule 
XVIII, modified by the amendments printed in the report of the Committee on 
Rules accompanying this resolution. That amendment in the nature of a substitute 
shall be considered as read. All points of order against that amendment in the 
nature of a substitute are waived. During consideration of the bill for 
amendment, the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord priority in 
recognition on the basis of whether the Member offering an amendment has caused 
it to be printed in the portion of the Congressional Record designated for that 
purpose in clause 8 of rule XVIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as 
read. 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 15 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 amendment in the nature of a 
substitute made in order as original text. 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
