 Mr. DOMENICI. Mr. President, section 314(b)(3)(B) of the 
Congressional Budget Act, as amended, requires the chairman of the 
Senate Budget Committee to adjust the appropriate budgetary aggregates 
and the allocation for the Appropriations Committee to reflect an 
amount of budget authority provided that is the dollar equivalent of 
the special drawing rights with respect to any increase in the maximum 
amount available to the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to section 
17 of the Bretton Woods Agreements Act, as amended from time to time 
(new arrangements to borrow).
  Section 500 of Public Law 105-83, an act making appropriations for 
the Department of the Interior and related agencies, requires the 
chairman of the Senate Budget Committee to adjust the allocation for 
the Appropriations Committee for Federal land acquisitions and to 
finalize priority land exchanges.

deficit aggregates for fiscal year 1998 contained in sec. 101 of House
