SECTION 1. ROVING WIRETAPS AND FISA SUNSETS.

    (a) Limitation on Roving Wiretaps.--Section 105(c) of the Foreign

            (1) in paragraph (1), by striking subparagraphs (A) and (B) 
        and inserting the following:
            ``(A)(i) the identity of the target of the electronic 
        surveillance, if known; or
            ``(ii) if the identity of the target is not known, a 
        description of the specific target and the nature and location 
        of the facilities and places at which the electronic 
        surveillance will be directed;
            ``(B)(i) the nature and location of each of the facilities 
        or places at which the electronic surveillance will be 
        directed, if known; or
            ``(ii) if any of the facilities or places are not known, 
        the identity of the target;''; and
            (2) in paragraph (2)--
                    (A) by redesignating subparagraphs (B) through (D) 
                as subparagraphs (C) through (E), respectively; and

                following:
                    ``(B) in cases where the facility or place at which 
                the electronic surveillance will be directed is not 
                known at the time the order is issued, that the 
                electronic surveillance be conducted only for such time 
                as it is reasonable to presume that the target of the 
                surveillance is or was reasonably proximate to the 
                particular facility or place;''.
    (b) Sunsets on Roving Wiretap Authority.--Section 102(b)(1) of the
