                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         July 16, 2002.
    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. 5093) making appropriations for the Department of the Interior and 
related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2003, 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. 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 of rule 
XXI are waived except as follows: beginning with ``Provided'' on page 29, line 
22, through page 30, line 11; page 68, lines 1 through 7. 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 8 of rule XVIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as 
read. During consideration of the bill, points of order against amendments for 
failure to comply with clause 2(e) of rule XXI are waived. 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.
