               AMENDING THE ARIZONA WATER SETTLEMENTS ACT

  Mr. REID. I think this will be the last thing for this week.
  I now ask unanimous consent the Committee on Indian Affairs be 
discharged from further consideration of H.R. 3739.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The clerk will report the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 3739) to amend the Arizona Water Settlements 
     Act to modify the requirements for the statement of findings.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the bill.
  Mr. REID. Before I ask this matter be completed, I want to say here 
is an example of cooperation between two Senators. Senators Dorgan and 
Kyl have worked on this for some time. There were some problems that 
were initially identified, but they have been able to work through 
this. This is a very important piece of legislation for Senator Kyl. 
For Senator Dorgan, it is an issue that is in his committee. I think it 
is terrific that this matter is done.
  I now ask unanimous consent the bill be read a third time, passed, 
the motion to reconsider be laid on the table, and any statements be 
printed in the Record.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The bill (H.R. 3739) was ordered to a third reading, was read the 
third time, and passed.
