                               RESOLUTION


 
   Providing 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.

    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.
