  Ms. PRYCE, by direction of the Committee on Rules, called up the 
following resolution (H. Res. 185):

       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. 1977) making appropriations for the Department 
     of the Interior and related agencies for the fiscal year 
     ending September 30, 1996, and for other purposes. The first 
     reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. Points of order 
     against consideration of the bill for failure to comply with 
     section 302(f), 306, or 308(a) of the Congressional Budget 
     Act of 1974 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 Appropriations. After general debate the bill 
     shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. 
     The bill shall be considered by title rather than by 
     paragraph. Each title shall be considered as read. Points of 
     order against provisions in the bill for failure to comply 
     with clause 2 or 6 of rule XXI are waived. The amendment 
     printed in section 2 of this resolution shall be considered 
     as adopted in the House and in the Committee of the Whole. 
     All points of order against the amendment printed in section 
     3 of this resolution 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 6 of rule XXIII. Amendments so 
     printed shall be considered as read. Points of order against 
     amendments for failure to comply with clause 2(e) of rule XXI 
     are waived. 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. 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. The amendment considered as adopted in the House 
     and in the Committee of the Whole is as follows:
       Page 57, line 21, strike ``:Provided further'' and all that 
     follows through ``Act'' on page 58, line 2.
       Page 75, line 24, strike ``equivalent to'' and insert ``not 
     to exceed''.
       Sec. 3. The amendment against which all points of order are 
     waived is one offered by Representative Schaefer of Colorado 
     or Representative Tauzin of Louisiana as follows:
       Page 57, line 11, strike ``:Provided'' and all that follows 
     through ``Reserve'' on line 21.

  When said resolution was considered.
