[H. Res. 510 Engrossed in House (EH)]


                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         July 29, 1998.
    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. 4328) making appropriations for the Department of Transportation and 
related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1999, 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 7 of rule 
XXI or section 401(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 Appropriations. After general debate the bill shall be 
considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The amendments printed in 
the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution shall be 
considered as adopted in the House and in the Committee of the Whole. Points of 
order against provisions in the bill, as amended, for failure to comply with 
clause 2 or 6 of rule XXI are waived except as follows: beginning with ``, of 
which'', on page 11, line 19, through ``Fund'' on line 20; page 16, lines 20 
through 24; beginning with ``: Provided'' on page 18, line 2, through ``motor 
carriers'' on line 5; and page 54, lines 4 through 8. Where points of order are 
waived against part of a paragraph, points of order against a provision in 
another part of such paragraph may be made only against such provision and not 
against the entire paragraph. During consideration of the bill for further 
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. The Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time 
during further consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a 
recorded vote on any amendment; and (2) reduce to five minutes the minimum time 
for electronic voting on any postponed question that follows another electronic 
vote without intervening business, provided that the minimum time for electronic 
voting on the first in any series of questions shall be 15 minutes. At the 
conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee shall rise 
and report the bill, as amended, to the House with such further amendments as 
may have been adopted. 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.
