  Mr. PASTOR changed his vote from ``aye'' to ``present.''
  Ms. VELAZQUEZ changed her vote from ``no'' to ``present.''
  So the amendment was agreed to.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.


                          personal explanation

  Mr. MICA. Mr. Chairman, on rollcall No. 555, I was unavoidably 
detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes.''
  The CHAIRMAN. The question is on the committee amendment in the 
nature of a substitute, as amended.
  The committee amendment in the nature of a substitute, as amended, 
was agreed to.
  The CHAIRMAN. Under the rule, the Committee rises.
  Accordingly the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. 
Hayworth) having assumed the chair, Mr. McInnis, Chairman of the 
Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, reported that 
that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 1270) to 
amend the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, pursuant to House 
Resolution 283, he reported the bill back to the House with an 
amendment adopted by the Committee of the Whole.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is 
ordered.
  Is a separate vote demanded on any amendment to the committee 
amendment in the nature of a substitute adopted by the Committee of the 
Whole? If not, the question is on the amendment.
  The amendment was agreed to.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on engrossment and third 
reading of the bill.
  The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was 
read the third time.


                Motion to Recommit Offered by Mr. Markey

  Mr. MARKEY. Mr. Speaker, I offer a motion to recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill?
  Mr. MARKEY. I am opposed to the bill in its current form, yes.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to 
recommit.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Mr. Markey moves to recommit the bill H.R. 1270 to the 
     Committee on Commerce with instructions to report the same 
     back to the House forthwith with the following amendment:
       Page 23, line 3, after the period insert ``Contractors 
     transporting spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive 
     waste under any such contract shall not be indemnified under 
     section 170d. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 for any 
     liability resulting from negligence, gross negligence, or 
     willful misconduct in connection with such transportation.''.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Massachusetts [Mr. 
Markey] is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion to 
recommit.

                              {time}  1645

  Mr. MARKEY. Mr. Speaker, this recommittal motion is the amendment the 
nuclear industry does not want Members to vote on, which is why the 
Committee on Rules did not put it in order. The reason that the nuclear 
industry does not want us to vote on this amendment is that, as opposed 
to Nevada getting all the waste, or the nuclear site having the waste 
taken from it, this amendment deals with the transportation of the 
waste through Members' districts and what the liability is of the 
trucking company, of the rail company that has responsibility for this 
material.
  Throughout the entire night last night we heard that an accident 
cannot happen, that these cannisters are so strong, and if a train hit 
the cannister, the train would be hurt. We were told that the Governor 
does not have to certify that transport is safe. We were told that the 
mayors and the local selectmen do not even have to have a role in 
public health or safety. But, buried in this bill is a total 
indemnification against liability of the trucking or the rail company 
if an accident occurs in Members' districts.
  Mr. Speaker, 43 States are going to have these materials riding 
through them. What happens if the trucking company engages in gross 
misconduct, if the trucking company engages in gross negligence? They 
are still not liable.
  Mr. Speaker, if the truck driver is on antidepressants, is drunk, is 
driving 80 miles an hour, careens into our community with this nuclear 
material, the company is not liable. My amendment makes the company 
liable. That is the only way we are going to make them accountable, to 
make sure they hire good drivers, to make sure they have the right 
kinds of protections built into the trucks, into the railcars. That is 
what this amendment is all about, plain and simple, just accountability 
for the companies who are carrying this dangerous material through 
every one of our districts. That is where it hits our districts, where 
it hits our people.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Nevada [Mr. Ensign].
  Mr. ENSIGN. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding to me.
  Mr. Speaker, H.R. 1270 does in fact assume that Congress and the 
Members here are experts, not the scientists. H.R. 1270 says that we 
are going to ignore what the Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board said, 
that there is no hurry, there is no urgency.
  As a matter of fact, if we put interim storage, and by the way, this 
bill is not about Yucca Mountain, this bill is about interim storage of 
nuclear waste at the Nevada test site. If we put interim storage at the 
Nevada test site, we will hurt the characterization process of Yucca 
Mountain. This bill is not about science, this is about politics. This 
is about all of us thinking that we are experts, over the geologists 
and all the scientists at the Nuclear Waste Technical Board and the 
like.
  Mr. MARKEY. Reclaiming my time, Mr. Speaker, so this amendment is the 
mobile Chernobyl amendment. It will be coming through Members' 
districts. The police, the local PTAs, everyone will be asking 
questions. When they are told that the drivers are not liable, that the 
railroad companies are not liable, there are going to be a lot of 
questions to answer.
  If there is only going to be one yes vote on recommittal, vote to 
include this liability for our districts when it is coming through our 
hometowns.
  Mr. ENSIGN. If the gentleman will continue to yield, Mr. Speaker, the 
other thing about this bill is this bill does ignore private property 
rights and ignores States' rights. The 10th amendment reserves the 
power to the States and people that it does not specifically grant to 
the Federal Government in the Constitution.
  The State of Nevada never had nuclear waste produced in its State. 
This is not a national security issue, this is about commercial nuclear 
waste trying to be shipped by other States to the State of Nevada. The 
gentleman from Idaho has good moral arguments because their State has 
had nuclear waste shoved down their throats. That is why he wants this 
bill, to get it out of his State, but it is no more right to send it to 
his State or to my State. This is wrong. It ignores private property 
rights as well as States' rights.
  I urge a ``yes'' vote on the motion to recommit, and a ``no'' vote on 
H.R. 1270.
  Mr. DAN SCHAEFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, I rise to speak in 
opposition to the motion to recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore [Mr. Hayworth]. The gentleman from Colorado 
[Mr. Dan Schaefer] is recognized for 5 minutes.

[[Page H9770]]

  Mr. DAN SCHAEFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman 
from Idaho [Mr. Crapo].
  Mr. CRAPO. Mr. Speaker, once again, the entire story has not been 
told. The fact is that this amendment would amend the Price-Anderson 
Act, a statute that was carefully crafted over two entire Congresses 
with great deliberation. There has been no hearing on this amendment, 
and it makes a dramatic change in an area of law that has always been 
very controversial.
  This is not a simple matter. Contractor liability was hotly contested 
when the Price-Anderson Act was debated in the 100th and 101st 
Congresses. Congress did not bar indemnification of contractors from 
damages resulting from negligence out of recognition that such a course 
would be inconsistent with the purposes of the Price-Anderson Act. Why?
  The fact is that although the impression was made in the debate in 
favor of this motion that there would be no compensation for those who 
might be injured by accidents involving nuclear transmission of fuel, 
the Price-Anderson Act does provide for compensation. It simply 
provides that it is done through a process that will provide immediate 
compensation to victims, rather than forcing them into expensive and 
protracted litigation.
  Again, this is an issue that has been debated hotly over two 
Congresses. It will be visited again in the reauthorization of the 
Price-Anderson Act before transportation begins, and the impression 
that was tried to be made by those who debated in favor of this motion 
that there is no compensation for victims of such accidents is simply 
false. There is a system of compensation in place. This amendment 
should be rejected.
  Mr. DAN SCHAEFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman 
from Texas [Mr. Hall], my ranking member.
  Mr. HALL of Texas. Mr. Speaker, the only change that I see in this is 
that it amends the Price-Anderson Act. That is an act that we very 
carefully crafted over two Congresses. There has been no hearing on 
this amendment. All in the world this is, by a very clever and 
articulate and a fine Member of Congress, it is a last gasp, the last 
grasp, the last opportunity to derail us finding a place for the 
nuclear waste. That is absolutely all it is.
  The purpose of the Price-Anderson Act is to provide a means of 
quickly compensating the victims of a nuclear accident. Let me say 
this: This amendment, this motion, is not timely, it is not necessary, 
and it is not debated. There has been absolutely no hearing on it.
  The Price-Anderson Act has to be reauthorized by the year 2002. 
Nuclear waste shipments will not begin until 2002, so there is no 
reason to act on this amendment today, since transportation will not 
begin until 5 long years from now. Why the urgency this afternoon? It 
is just to derail this amendment today. It is very clever, very well 
presented, but it just does not hold up.
  The situation could be different 5 years from now. At least the 
committee system would have 60 long months to work, to hear, to notify 
and have input from people more knowledgeable than any of us here. I 
think it is unnecessary, it is dangerous, it is untimely, and it is 
unneeded. I urge that we defeat it.
  Mr. DAN SCHAEFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman 
from Illinois [Mr. Hastert].
  Mr. HASTERT. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding to me.
  I would like to have the Members' attention for just a minute. I am 
not going to yell, wail, or scream. I just want to tell the Members 
what the facts are.
  Mr. Speaker, the Price-Anderson Act was enacted between the 100th and 
101st Congresses on a bipartisan basis so people, if there was a 
nuclear accident, people could get compensation immediately. What this 
amendment would do, the amendment offered by the gentleman from 
Massachusetts [Mr. Markey], it would throw things into the courts. It 
may be 5 years or 6 years or 10 years before anybody would ever get 
compensated if, in fact, there ever was a nuclear accident, and there 
has not been.
  So what the gentleman from Massachusetts [Mr. Markey] would like to 
do is to hand this over to the trial lawyers, to the courts, to the 
private settlement issue, and not get victims compensated immediately.
  What we are asking in this bill, what the Price-Anderson Act does, is 
compensate victims immediately so they can take care of their health 
problems or their physical problems, or any property damage that they 
received. This amendment ought to stay in place. Price-Anderson ought 
to stay in place, and we should reject the Markey amendment.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.


                             Recorded Vote

  Mr. MARKEY. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
  A recorded vote was ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the provisions of clause 5 of 
rule XV, the Chair announces that he will reduce to a minimum of 5 
minutes the period of time within which a vote by electronic device, if 
ordered, will be taken on the question of passage of the bill.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 142, 
noes 283, not voting 7, as follows:
