SEC. 211. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
            (1) assistance from the Economic Development Administration 
        (hereafter in this section referred to as the ``EDA'') within 
        the Department of Commerce is an investment in the economic 
        vitality of the United States;
            (2) funding for the EDA within the Department of Commerce 
        is reduced by almost 80 percent in this Act;
            (3) the EDA serves a unique governmental function by 
        providing grants, which are matched by local funds, to 
        distressed urban and rural areas that would not otherwise 
        receive funding;
            (4) every EDA $1 invested generates $3 in outside 
        investments, and during the past 30 years preceding the date of 
        enactment of this Act, the EDA has invested more than 
        $15,600,000,000 in depressed communities, creating 2,800,000 
        jobs in the United States;
            (5) the EDA is one of a very few governmental agencies that 
        assists communities impacted by military base closings and 
        defense downsizing;
            (6) the EDA has--
                    (A) become a more efficient and effective agency by 
                reducing regulations by 60 percent;
                    (B) trimmed the period for application processing 
                down to a 60-day period; and
                    (C) reduced its operating expenses; and
            (7) the House of Representatives, on July 26, 1995, voiced 
        strong bipartisan support for the EDA by a vote of 315 to 110.
    (b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that 
the appropriation for the EDA for fiscal year 1996 should be at the 
House of Representatives-passed level of $348,500,000.
    This title may be cited as the ``Department of Commerce and Related 
Agencies Appropriations Act, 1996''.

SEC. 614. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON UNITED STATES-CANADIAN COOPERATION 
              CONCERNING AN OUTLET TO RELIEVE FLOODING AT DEVILS LAKE 
              IN NORTH DAKOTA.

    (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
            (1) flooding in Devils Lake Basin, North Dakota, has 
        resulted in water levels in the lake reaching their highest 
        point in 120 years;
            (2) basements are flooded and the town of Devils Lake is 
        threatened with lake water reaching the limits of the 
        protective dikes of the lake;
            (3) the Army Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of 
        Reclamation are now studying the feasibility of constructing an 
        outlet from Devils Lake Basin;
            (4) an outlet from Devils Lake Basin will allow the 
        transfer of water from Devils Lake Basin to the Red River of 
        the North watershed that the United States shares with Canada; 
        and
            (5) the Treaty Relating to the Boundary Waters and 
        Questions Arising Along the Boundary Between the United States 
        and Canada, signed at Washington on January 11, 1909 (36 Stat. 
        2448; TS 548) (commonly known as the ``Boundary Water Treaty of 
        1909''), provides that ``waters flowing across the boundary 
        shall not be polluted on either side to the injury of health or 
        property on the other.'' (36 Stat. 2450).
    (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that the 
United States Government should seek to establish a joint United 
States-Canadian technical committee to review the Devils Lake Basin 
outlet project to consider options for an outlet that would meet 
Canadian concerns with regard to the Boundary Water Treaty of 1909.
    Sec. 615. Competitive Bidding for Assignment of DBS Licenses.--No 
funds provided in this or any other Act shall be expended to take any 
action regarding the applications that bear Federal Communications

Provided, That funds shall be made available for any action taken by 
the Federal Communications Commission to use the competitive bidding 
process prescribed in section 309(j) of the Communications Act of 1934 
(47 U.S.C. section 309(j)) regarding the disposition of the 27 channels 
at 110 degrees W.L. orbital location: Provided further, That the 
provisions of this section apply unless the Federal Communications 
Commission determines that an alternative adjudication would yield more 
money for the United States Treasury.

        paragraph (1) shall be included in the annual reports required 
        to be submitted to Congress by the Secretary of Energy under 
        section 548(b) of the Act (42 U.S.C. 8258(b)).

1995''.

SEC. 802. APPROPRIATE REMEDIES FOR PRISON CONDITIONS.

    (a) In General.--Section 3626 of title 18, United States Code, is 
amended to read as follows:
``Sec. 3626. Appropriate remedies with respect to prison conditions
    ``(a) Requirements for Relief.--
            ``(1) Prospective relief.--(A) Prospective relief in any 
        civil action with respect to prison conditions shall extend no 
        further than necessary to correct the violation of the Federal 
        right of a particular plaintiff or plaintiffs. The court shall 
        not grant or approve any prospective relief unless the court 
        finds that such relief is narrowly drawn, extends no further 
        than necessary to correct the violation of the Federal right, 
        and is the least intrusive means necessary to correct the 
        violation of the Federal right. The court shall give 
        substantial weight to any adverse impact on public safety or 
        the operation of a criminal justice system caused by the 
        relief.
            ``(B) Nothing in this section shall be construed to 
        authorize the courts, in exercising their remedial powers, to 
        order the construction of prisons or the raising of taxes, or 
        to repeal or detract from otherwise applicable limitations on 
        the remedial powers of the courts.
            ``(2) Preliminary injunctive relief.--In any civil action 
        with respect to prison conditions, to the extent otherwise 
        authorized by law, the court may enter a temporary restraining 
        order or an order for preliminary injunctive relief. 
        Preliminary injunctive relief must be narrowly drawn, extend no 
        further than necessary to correct the harm the court finds 
        requires preliminary relief, and be the least intrusive means 
        necessary to correct that harm. Preliminary injunctive relief 
        shall automatically expire on the date that is 90 days after 
        its entry, unless the court makes the findings required under 
        subsection (a)(1) for the entry of prospective relief and makes 
        the order final before the expiration of the 90-day period.
            ``(3) Prisoner release order.--(A) In any civil action with 
        respect to prison conditions, no prisoner release order shall 
        be entered unless--
                    ``(i) a court has previously entered an order for 
                less intrusive relief that has failed to remedy the 
                deprivation of the Federal right sought to be remedied 
                through the prisoner release order; and
                    ``(ii) the defendant has had a reasonable amount of 
                time to comply with the previous court orders.
            ``(B) In any civil action in Federal court with respect to 
        prison conditions, a prisoner release order shall be entered 
        only by a three-judge court in accordance with section 2284 of 
        title 28, if the requirements of subparagraph (E) have been 
        met.
            ``(C) A party seeking a prisoner release order in Federal 
        court shall file with any request for such relief, a request 
        for a three-judge court and materials sufficient to demonstrate 
        that the requirements of subparagraph (A) have been met.
            ``(D) If the requirements under subparagraph (A) have been 
        met, a Federal judge before whom a civil action with respect to 
        prison conditions is pending who believes that a prison release 
        order should be considered may sua sponte request the convening 
        of a three-judge court to determine whether a prisoner release 
        order should be entered.
            ``(E) The court shall enter a prisoner release order only 
        if the court finds--
                    ``(i) by clear and convincing evidence--
                            ``(I) that crowding is the primary cause of 
                        the violation of a Federal right; and
                            ``(II) that no other relief will remedy the 
                        violation of the Federal right; and
                    ``(ii) by a preponderance of the evidence--
                            ``(I) that crowding has deprived a 
                        particular plaintiff or plaintiffs of at least 
                        one essential, identifiable human need; and
                            ``(II) that prison officials have acted 
                        with obduracy and wantonness in depriving the 
                        particular plaintiff or plaintiffs of the one 
                        essential, identifiable human need caused by 
                        the crowding.

        whose jurisdiction or function includes the prosecution or 
        custody of persons who may be released from, or not admitted 
        to, a prison as a result of a prisoner release order shall have

        narrowly drawn, extends no further than necessary to correct 
        the violation of the Federal right, and is the least intrusive

conditions under section 1979 of the Revised Statutes of the United 
States (42 U.S.C. 1983), or any other law, by a prisoner confined in 
any jail, prison, or other correctional facility if the court is 
satisfied that the action is frivolous, malicious, fails to state a 
claim upon which relief can be granted, or seeks monetary relief from a 
defendant who is immune from such relief.
    ``(2) In the event that a claim is, on its face, frivolous, 
malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or

described in paragraph (1), a portion of the judgment (not to exceed 25 
percent) shall be applied to satisfy the amount of attorney's fees

or other correctional facility under section 1979 of the Revised 
Statutes of the United States (42 U.S.C. 1983) or any other law.

not constitute an admission of the allegations contained in the 
complaint. No relief shall be granted to the plaintiff unless a reply 
has been filed.

reply to a complaint commenced under this section.
