H. Res. 303

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                     November 16, 1993.
    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. 322) to modify the requirements applicable to locatable minerals on 
public domain lands, consistent with the principles of self-initiation of mining 
claims, and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed 
with. 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 Natural 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 
Natural Resources now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in the nature 
of a substitute shall be considered by title rather than by section. Each title 
shall be considered as read. The amendments en bloc specified in the report of 
the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution to be offered by 
Representative Miller of California or a designee may amend portions of the bill 
not yet read for amendment, shall be considered as read, and shall not be 
subject to a demand for division of the question in the House or in the 
Committee of the Whole. 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.
            Attest:
