                                PROGRAM

  Mr. MACK. For the information of all Senators, the Senate will be in 
a period of morning business until 10:30 a.m. Following morning 
business, it is expected that the Senate will then begin consideration 
of the nuclear waste disposal bill. If that consent is not granted, 
then there is an understanding that a cloture vote will occur at 2:15 
on Tuesday with respect to a committee amendment. Members should be 
aware that amendments to the nuclear waste bill are anticipated, and 
those concerned are close to reaching an agreement providing for a 
limited number of amendments and debate time. Therefore, Senators can 
expect votes throughout tomorrow's session of the Senate. It is hoped 
that Senators who have amendments will work with the bill managers in 
an effort to complete this legislation in a timely manner.
