H. Res. 422

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                          May 17, 1994.
    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. 518) to designate certain lands in the California Desert as 
wilderness, to establish the Death Valley and Joshua Tree National Parks and the 
Mojave National Monument, and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill 
shall be dispensed with. General debate shall be confined to the bill and the 
amendments made in order by this resolution 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 
of the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as 
read. Points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute for failure to comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI are waived. No 
amendment to the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be in 
order unless printed in the portion of the Congressional Record designated for 
that purpose in clause 6 of rule XXIII before the beginning of consideration of 
the bill. The amendment caused to be printed in the Record by Representative 
LaRocco of Idaho (relating to an East Mojave Preserve) may amend portions of the 
bill not yet read for amendment. 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 in structions. After passage of H.R. 518, it shall be in order to take 
from the Speaker's table the bill S. 21 and to consider the Senate bill in the 
House. All points of order against the Senate bill and against its consideration 
are waived. It shall be in order to move to strike all after the enacting clause 
of the Senate bill and to insert in lieu thereof the provisions of H.R. 518 as 
passed by the House. All points of order against that motion are waived. If the 
motion is adopted and the Senate bill, as amended, is passed, then it shall be 
in order to move that the House insist on its amendments to S. 21 and request a 
conference with the Senate thereon.
            Attest:
