                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         June 30, 1999.
    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution the Speaker 
may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the House resolved into the 
Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of the 
bill (H.R. 592) to redesignate Great Kills Park in the Gateway National 
Recreation Area as ``World War II Veterans Park at Great Kills''. 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 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 for failure to comply with clause 7 of 
rule XVI are waived. During 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 8 
of rule XVIII. 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 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
