  PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF H.R. 535, THE CORNING NATIONAL FISH 
                        HATCHERY CONVEYANCE ACT

  Mrs. WALDHOLTZ. Mr. Speaker, by direction of the Committee on Rules, 
I call up House Resolution 144 and ask for its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the resolution, as follows:

                              H. Res. 144

       Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this 
     resolution the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule 
     XXIII, declare the House resolved into the Committee of the 
     Whole House on the state of the Union for consideration of 
     the bill (H.R. 535) to direct the Secretary of the Interior 
     to convey the Corning National Fish Hatchery to the State of 
     Arkansas. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed 
     with. 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 
     Resources. After general debate the bill shall be considered 
     for amendment under the five-minute rule. The bill and the 
     amendment recommended by the Committee on Resources now 
     printed in the bill 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.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Utah [Mrs. Waldholtz] 
is recognized for 1 hour.
  Mrs. WALDHOLTZ. Mr. Speaker, for purposes of debate only, I yield the 
customary 30 minutes to the gentleman from California [Mr. Beilenson], 
pending which I yield myself such time as I may consume. During 
consideration of this resolution, all time yielded is for the purpose 
of debate only.
  Mr. Speaker, House Resolution 144 is another open rule providing for 
the consideration of H.R. 535, legislation directing the Secretary of 
the Interior to convey Corning National Fish Hatchery to the State of 
Arkansas.
  Specifically, this rule provides 1 hour of general debate equally 
divided and controlled by the chairman and the ranking member of the 
Committee on Resources. After general debate is completed, the bill 
will be considered for amendment under the 5-minute rule. The bill and 
the amendment recommended by the Resources Committee now printed in the 
bill shall be considered as read. Finally, the rule provides one motion 
to recommit.
  Mr. Speaker, House Resolution 144 will permit the House to consider 
legislation sponsored by our colleague, Representative Blanch Lambert 
Lincoln, to convey the Corning National Fish Hatchery, which is located 
in Corning, AR, to the State of Arkansas.
  As will be described in more detail later, the State of Arkansas 
assumed control of the fish hatchery from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 
Service in 1983, when it was closed as a result of Federal budget cuts. 
Currently, no Federal funds are being used to operate or maintain the 
hatchery. It is my understanding that the State is now interested in 
making capital improvements to the facility, in addition to long-term 
plans for its use. However, the State is hesitant to do so without 
first obtaining title to the property.
  H.R. 535 would facilitate the transfer to the State of Arkansas of 
all right, title, and interest of the United States in and to the 
property of the Corning Fish Hatchery. An amendment adopted during 
subcommittee consideration of the bill would ensure that these rights 
and interests will revert to the United States if the property is used 
for any purpose other than fishery resources management.
  Mr. Speaker, let me take just a moment to respond to those who might 
question why we are considering this legislation under a rule at all, 
rather than under suspension of the rules. As our colleagues know, 
suspension of the rules is an effective tool for considering relatively 
noncontroversial legislation in an expedited manner. Debate is limited 
to just 40 minutes, and bills considered under suspension are 
unamendable on the floor of the House.
  During our Rules Committee hearing on the bill last week, we 
discussed the possibility of at least two amendments to H.R. 535, 
including one to be offered by the sponsor of the bill, and one by the 
ranking minority member of the Resources Committee requiring the State 
of Arkansas to pay the Federal Government the fair market value of the 
Corning facility at the time of transfer. Under suspension, any such 
floor amendments would be prohibited. Under this open rule, however, an 
open amendment process is guaranteed. Any Member can be heard on any 
germane amendment to the bill at the appropriate time.
  Mr. Speaker, H.R. 535 was favorably reported out of the Committee on 
Resources by voice vote, as was this rule [[Page H4929]] by the Rules 
Committee. In fact, the Committee on Rules reported this resolution 
unanimously, without a single ``nay'' vote. I urge my colleagues to 
support this very open rule, and continue the spirit of openness and 
thoughtful debate that has enhanced the overall deliberative process in 
the House this year.
  Mr. Speaker, I am including for the Record this chart that shows what 
rules have been offered in the 104th Congress and the 103d Congress.

\1\This table applies only to rules which provide for the original consideration of bills, joint resolutions or 
  budget resolutions and which provide for an amendment process. It does not apply to special rules which only  
  waive points of order against appropriations bills which are already privileged and are considered under an   
  open amendment process under House rules.                                                                     
\2\An open rule is one under which any Member may offer a germane amendment under the five-minute rule. A       
  modified open rule is one under which any Member may offer a germane amendment under the five-minute rule     
  subject only to an overall time limit on the amendment process and/or a requirement that the amendment be     
  preprinted in the Congressional Record.                                                                       
\3\A modified closed rule is one under which the Rules Committee limits the amendments that may be offered only 
  to those amendments designated in the special rule or the Rules Committee report to accompany it, or which    
  preclude amendments to a particular portion of a bill, even though the rest of the bill may be completely open
  to amendment.                                                                                                 
\4\A closed rule is one under which no amendments may be offered (other than amendments recommended by the      
  committee in reporting the bill).

  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.

                              {time}  1300

  Mr. BEILENSON. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentlewoman from Utah [Mrs. 
Waldholtz] for yielding the customary \1/2\ hour of debate time to me.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I man consume.
  Mr. Speaker, this is an open rule, as the gentlewoman has stated.
  The Committee on Rules reported the rule for this basically 
noncontroversial bill. We support the rule. We urge our colleagues to 
approve it today.
  The gentlewoman from Arkansas [Mrs. Lincoln] appeared before our 
committee last week to support the open rule for this bill, a bill 
which she herself originally introduced. She reminded us of similar 
legislation passed last year under suspension of the rules and of the 
noncontroversial nature of the measure.
  We also appreciated her testimony. The State of Arkansas wants to 
preserve this property and is willing to make improvements and 
implement long-term plans if it can assume ownership.
  The State of Arkansas, along with several other States, is evidently 
operating these hatcheries with a good deal of success for recreational 
purposes. The Fish and Wildlife Service plans to transfer several other 
excess properties to other States, all without reimbursement. The 
gentleman from California [Mr. Miller] may again offer an amendment to 
the bill which would require the State of Arkansas to pay the Federal 
Government the fair market value of the property.
  Mr. Speaker, again, we support this open rule and urge our colleagues 
to approve it today.
  Also, Mr. Speaker, I am inserting extraneous material at this point 
in the Record.

  of resolutions reported from the Rules Committee in the 103rd Congress. ****Not included in this chart are
