               RECOGNITION OF THE ACTING MAJORITY LEADER

  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The acting majority leader is recognized.


                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. CHAFEE. Mr. President, this morning the leader time has been 
reserved, and the Senate will immediately resume consideration of S. 
534, the interstate solid waste bill. Pending is the Hatch amendment to 
the Specter amendment regarding Senate hearings on Waco and Ruby Ridge. 
Also, Senators should be aware that a cloture motion was filed on the 
committee substitute. Therefore, a cloture vote will occur tomorrow, 
unless an agreement can be reached. All first-degree amendments should 
be filed by 1 p.m. today. That is very important. Rollcall votes can be 
expected throughout the day today and into the evening in order to make 
progress on this bill.
  I would add, Mr. President, it would be my hope that we finish this 
bill today and that those who have amendments will bring them over and 
let us consider them and see if we can handle them, and, if not, we 
will vote. But above all, it is very important that people come over 
with their amendments. All first-degree amendments have to be filed by 
1 p.m. today.
  So we are here ready to do business, Mr. President.
