      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3183) making 
 appropriations for energy and water development and related agencies 
 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, and for other purposes

    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. 3183) making 
appropriations for energy and water development and related agencies 
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, 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 except those arising 
under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. General debate shall be confined to 
the bill and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled 
by the chair 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 bill shall be considered as 
read through page 63, line 12. Points of order against provisions in 
the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived. 
Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule XVIII, except as provided in section 
2, no amendment shall be in order except: (1) the amendments printed in 
part A of the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this 
resolution; (2) not to exceed one of the amendments printed in part B 
of the report of the Committee on Rules if offered by Representative 
Campbell of California or his designee; (3) not to exceed six of the 
amendments printed in part C of the report of the Committee on Rules if 
offered by Representative Flake of Arizona or his designee; and (4) not 
to exceed three of the amendments printed in part D of the report of 
the Committee on Rules if offered by Representative Hensarling of Texas 
or his designee. Each such amendment may be offered only in the order 
printed in the report, may be offered only by a Member designated in 
the report, shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for 10 
minutes equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an 
opponent, and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the 
question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. All points of 
order against such amendments are waived except those arising under 
clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. 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. In the case of 
sundry amendments reported from the Committee, the question of their 
adoption shall be put to the House en gros and without division of the 
question. 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.
    Sec. 2.  After disposition of the amendments specified in the first 
section of this resolution, the chair and ranking minority member of 
the Committee on Appropriations or their designees each may offer one 
pro forma amendment to the bill for the purpose of debate, which shall 
be controlled by the proponent.
    Sec. 3.  The Chair may entertain a motion that the Committee rise 
only if offered by the chair of the Committee on Appropriations or his 
designee. The Chair may not entertain a motion to strike out the 
enacting words of the bill (as described in clause 9 of rule XVIII).
    Sec. 4.  During consideration of H.R. 3183, the Chair may reduce to 
two minutes the minimum time for electronic voting under clause 6 of 
rule XVIII and clauses 8 and 9 of rule XX.
    Sec. 5.  House Resolution 618 is laid on the table.
