                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, this morning it is hoped that the Senate 
will be able to resume consideration of the Interior appropriations 
bill. The oil royalties amendment is the only remaining issue to 
dispose of prior to completing action on the bill. However, in order to 
resume consideration of the oil royalties issue, it may be necessary to 
have several procedural votes this morning; therefore, Senators should 
anticipate votes beginning shortly. The Senate will also resume 
consideration of the VA-HUD appropriations bill with the hope of 
finishing that legislation today. Also, either later on today or 
tomorrow, it is hoped we can take up one, two, or more appropriations 
conference reports as they are completed.
