  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, there is a concurrent resolution at the desk 
calling for the conditional adjournment of Congress. I ask unanimous 
consent that the resolution be considered agreed to and the motion to 
reconsider be laid upon the table, all without any intervening action 
or debate. This has been cleared on the Democratic side.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

     6, 1999, or Saturday, August 7, 1999, on a motion offered 
     pursuant to this concurrent resolution by its Majority Leader 
     or his designee, it stand recessed or adjourned until noon on 
     Wednesday, September 8, 1999, or until such time on that day 
     as may be specified by its Majority Leader or his designee in 
     the motion to recess or adjourn, or until noon on the second 
     day after Members are notified to reassemble pursuant to 
     section 2 of this concurrent resolution, whichever occurs 
     first; and that when the House adjourns on the legislative 
     day of Thursday, August 5, 1999, Friday, August 6, 1999, or 
     Saturday, August 7, 1999, on a motion offered pursuant to

       Sec. 2. The Majority Leader of the Senate and the Speaker 
     of the House, acting jointly after consultation with the 
     Minority Leader of the Senate and the Minority Leader of the 
     House, shall notify the Members of the Senate and House, 
     respectively, to reassemble whenever, in their opinion, the 
     public interest shall warrant it.


                 Unanimous Consent Agreement--H.R. 2466

degree amendments in order to the Interior appropriations bill, other 
than the managers' amendment, must be filed at the desk by 8 o'clock 
this evening and one amendment be allowed for each leader.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
