                 DESIGNATING THE JOHN W. WARNER RAPIDS

  Mr. RAHALL. Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the Committee 
on Natural Resources be discharged from further consideration of the 
Senate bill (S. 3550) to designate a portion of the Rappahannock River 
in the Commonwealth of Virginia as the ``John W. Warner Rapids,'' and 
ask for its immediate consideration in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the Senate bill.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Clarke). Is there objection to the 
request of the gentleman from West Virginia?
  There was no objection.
  The text of the Senate bill is as follows:

                                S. 3550

       Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
     the United States of America in Congress assembled,

     longitude, shall be known and designated as the ``John W.
