[H. Res. 303 Engrossed in House (EH)]


                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                          May 15, 1996.
    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. 1745) to designate certain public lands in the State of Utah as 
wilderness, 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 clause 2(I)(6) of rule XI or section 302(f) or 311(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 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 Resources now printed in the bill. 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 7 of rule XVI or section 302(f) or 311(a) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are waived. Before consideration of any other 
amendment, it shall be in order to consider the amendment printed in the report 
of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. That amendment may be 
offered only by the chairman of the Committee on Resources or his designee, 
shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for ten minutes equally divided 
and controlled by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to 
amendment, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the question in 
the House or in the Committee of the Whole. If that amendment is adopted, the 
bill, as amended, shall be considered as the original bill for the purpose of 
further amendment. During further 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. 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 amendment in the nature of a 
substitute made in order as original text. 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:

                                                                          Clerk.
