                   Select Committee on Indian Affairs

  Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, I would like to announce that the Senate 
Committee on Indian Affairs will conduct a hearing during the session 
of the Senate on Wednesday, June 26, 1996, at 9:30 a.m. on amendments 
to the Indian Child Welfare Act [ICWA]. The hearing will be held in

               Committee on Energy and Natural Resources

  Mr. MURKOWSKI. Mr. President, I would like to announce for the public 
that a hearing has been scheduled before the full Committee on Energy 
and Natural Resources to receive testimony regarding S. 1804, a bill to 
make technical and other changes to the laws dealing with the 
Territories and Freely Associated States of the United States, that I 
have introduced today. The hearing will also consider an amendment that 
I have also introduced that deals with medical care for Bikini and 
Enewetak Atolls in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. In addition to 
the legislative matters, the committee will also conduct an oversight 
into the law enforcement initiative in the Commonwealth of the Northern 
Mariana Islands. While the report from the Secretary of the Interior is 
overdue, I expect that it will be submitted in sufficient time for 
review and comment by the Northern Marianas prior to the hearing.
  The hearing will be held on Tuesday, June 25, 1996, it will begin at 
9:30 a.m., and will take place in room SD-366 of the Dirksen Senate 
Office Building in Washington, DC.
  For further information, please call James P. Beirne, senior counsel 
to the committee at (202) 224-2564 or Betty Nevitt at (202) 224-0765.
