[H. Res. 178 Engrossed in House (EH)]


                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         June 26, 2001.
    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. 2299) making appropriations for the Department of Transportation and 
related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2002, and for other 
purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. All points of 
order against consideration of the bill 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. Points of order against provisions in the bill for 
failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived except as follows: 
beginning with ``for administration'' on page 13, line 24, through ``section 
40117;'' on line 25; beginning with ``Provided'' on page 14, line 12, through 
line 20; beginning with ``Provided,'' on page 15, line 9, through line 14; 
beginning with ``Provided'' on page 23, line 20, through page 24, line 2; 
``notwithstanding any other provision of law'' on page 26, line 10; beginning 
with ``together with'' on page 26, line 15, through the closing quotation mark 
on line 16; page 31, line 9 through ``as amended,'' on line 10; page 38, line 
23, through page 45, line 2; page 50, line 22, through page 51, line 15; page 
55, line 6, through line 13; page 56, line 16, through page 57, line 2. 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 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. 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. 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.
