                      NOTICES OF HEARINGS/MEETINGS


                subcommittee on public lands and forests

  Mr. CRAIG. Mr. President, I would like to announce for the 
information of the Senate and the public that a hearing has been 
scheduled before the Subcommittee on Public Lands and Forests.
  The hearing that was originally scheduled for June 19, 2003 has been 
postponed and will now be held on Wednesday, June 25 at 2:30 p.m. in 
Room SD-366 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building.
  The purpose of this oversight hearing is to gain an understanding of 
the grazing programs of the Bureau of Land Management and the United 
States Forest Service. The Subcommittee will receive testimony on 
grazing permit renewal, BLM's potential changes to grazing regulations, 
range monitoring, drought and other grazing issues. This hearing will 
also provide the basis for other grazing hearings that we may want to 
undertake at the subcommittee level as the year goes on.

  Because of the limited time available for the hearings, witnesses may 
testify by invitation only. However, those wishing to submit written 
testimony for the hearing record should send two copies of their 
testimony to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, United 
States Senate, Washington, DC 20510-6150.
