INDEPENDENT AGENCIES

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISION

The Congress finds that the 1990 amendments

to the Clean Air Act (Public Law 101–549) superseded prior requirements of the Clean Air Act regarding the demonstration of attainment of national ambient air quality standards for the

South Coast, Ventura, and Sacramento areas of

California and thus eliminated the obligation of

the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to promulgate a Federal implementation plan under section 110(e) of the Clean Air

Act for those areas. Upon the enactment of this

Act, any Federal implementation plan that has

been promulgated by the Administrator of the

Environmental Protection Agency under the

Clean Air Act for the South Coast, Ventura, or

Sacramento areas of California pursuant to a

court order or settlement shall be rescinded and

shall have no further force and effect.

NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE

ADMINISTRATION

NATIONAL AERONAUTICAL FACILITIES

Public Law 103–327 is amended in the paragraph under this heading by striking ‘‘March

31, 1997’’ and all that follows, and inserting in

lieu thereof. ‘‘September 30, 1997: Provided,

That not to exceed $35,000,000 shall be available

for obligation prior to October 1, 1996.’’.

And the Senate agree to the same.

Amendment numbered 24:

That the House recede from its disagreement to the amendment of the Senate numbered 24, and agree to the same with an

amendment, as follows:

In lieu of the matter proposed by said

amendment insert:

TITLE IV—MEXICAN DEBT DISCLOSURE

ACT OF 1995

SEC. 401. SHORT TITLE.

This title may be cited as the ‘‘Mexican Debt

Disclosure Act of 1995’’.

SEC. 402. FINDINGS.

The Congress finds that—

(1) Mexico is an important neighbor and trading partner of the United States;

(2) on January 31, 1995, the President approved a program of assistance to Mexico, in the

form of swap facilities and securities guarantees

in the amount of $20,000,000,000, using the exchange stabilization fund;

(3) the program of assistance involves the participation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the International Monetary Fund, the Bank for International Settlements, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the Inter-American Development Bank, the Bank of Canada, and several Latin America countries;

(4) the involvement of the exchange stabilization fund and the Board of Governors of the

Federal Reserve System means that United

States taxpayer funds will be used in the assistance effort to Mexico;

(5) assistance provided by the International

Monetary Fund, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the InterAmerican Development Bank may require additional United States contributions of taxpayer

funds to those entities;

(6) the immediate use of taxpayer funds and

the potential requirement for additional future

United States contributions of taxpayer funds

necessitates congressional oversight of the disbursement of funds; and

(7) the efficacy of the assistance to Mexico is

contingent on the pursuit of sound economic

policy by the Government of Mexico.
