Announcement by the Acting Chair
The Acting CHAIR (during the vote). There is 1 minute remaining.
{time} 1707
Mr. GINGREY of Georgia changed his vote from ``aye'' to ``no.''
So the amendment was rejected.
The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
Stated for:
Mr. McINTYRE. Mr. Chair, during rollcall vote No. 487 on September 9,
2014, I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have
voted ``yes.''
The Acting CHAIR. There being no further amendments, under the rule,
the Committee rises.
Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr.
Yoder) having assumed the chair, Mr. Collins of Georgia, Acting Chair
of the Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union, reported
that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R.
5078) to preserve existing rights and responsibilities with respect to
waters of the United States, and for other purposes, and, pursuant to
House Resolution 715, he reported the bill back to the House.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is
ordered.
The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the bill.
The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was
read the third time.
Motion to Recommit
Mr. HUFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill?
Mr. HUFFMAN. I am opposed in its current form.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to
recommit.
The Clerk read as follows:
Mr. Huffman moves to recommit the bill H.R. 5078 to the
Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure with
instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith
with the following amendment:
At the end of the bill, add the following:
SEC. __. PROTECTING THE QUALITY OF WATER FOR PUBLIC WATER
SUPPLIES AND AGRICULTURAL USES AND TO MITIGATE
AGAINST DROUGHT.
Nothing in this Act affects the authority of the Secretary
or Administrator to protect the quality of surface water that
is available--
(1) for public water supplies, which are a significance
source of drinking water for municipalities;
(2) for agricultural uses, including irrigation; or
(3) to mitigate against the harmful impact of drought.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from California is recognized
for 5 minutes.
Mr. HUFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, this is the final amendment to the bill. It
will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. If adopted, the
bill will immediately proceed to final passage, as amended.
Mr. Speaker, the underlying bill before us today will make it harder
for the Army Corps of Engineers and the EPA to clarify the
jurisdictional coverage of the Clean Water Act, leaving watersheds
across the country in continued legal limbo.
Now, I have visited with ranchers, landowners, and folks from around
my district. I understand the anxieties that have been expressed about
what the Waters of the United States rulemaking means, but the solution
to this situation is to seek tighter definitions and clearer rules, not
to prohibit agencies from further developing an important proposal.
In particular, I am concerned that H.R. 5078 could have unintended
consequences for those who rely on healthy watersheds. We need clarity
in the law, so that we can protect water quality for drinking water
supplies and for agricultural uses.
We are suffering from a historic drought in California, and the
current legal mess--the ambiguity of what qualifies as waters of the
U.S. under the Clean Water Act--actually makes it harder to know which
water bodies are covered by the law.
It makes it harder to protect upstream wetlands that reach our
groundwater supplies. The importance of these intermittent streams and
wetlands is most notable during extreme weather events like torrential
rains or droughts because wetlands and streams can absorb and then
release water gradually to surrounding streams and aquifers.
This underlying bill would keep regulatory uncertainty in place, and
it could leave upstream water sources subject to expensive and long-
lasting litigation. That situation is not good for the communities in
my district who need clean drinking water and clean water for their
businesses. It is not good for my downstream ranchers who are already
facing water shortages and are hurting from rising feed prices.
Now, remember, Mr. Speaker and colleagues, that the current proposal
from the EPA and the Army Corps is actually very narrowly targeted.
Under President Reagan, the Clean Water Act covered any body of water
that could serve as habitat for migratory birds, a much more far-
reaching standard than the one the Obama administration is considering.
The GAO determined in 2004 that the Reagan rule would have allowed
the Army Corps to regulate almost any body of water or wetland. Let's
remember that when we hear the characterizations of the Obama
administration's proposal as some vast overreach, it is far more
narrowly tailored than what existed under President Reagan.
Right now, the Federal agencies have a proposal--again, much less
expansive than President Reagan's--that they are reviewing with
ranchers, with water utilities, and with States. It should be, it can
be, and I believe it will be a workable proposal. We should let that
process play out.
Let's not make the current situation worse. Let's ensure that this
bill doesn't harm drinking water or water supplies for irrigation
needs. Let's ensure that we aren't making it harder to respond to an
extreme drought. I ask my colleagues to support this motion to
recommit.
I yield back the balance of my time.
{time} 1715
Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to
recommit.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Pennsylvania is
recognized for 5 minutes
Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, I must strongly oppose this motion to
recommit because it basically aims to gut the underlying bill. The
purpose of H.R. 5078 is to uphold the Federal-State partnership in
regulating the Nation's waters by maintaining a balance between the
States and the Federal Government in carrying out the Clean Water Act.
H.R. 5078 restricts the administration's current administrative
efforts to expand Federal jurisdiction under the Clean Water Act, and
requires the agencies to engage in a federalism consultation with the
State and local government partners in implementing the Clean Water
Act. However, this motion is designed to undermine the legislation by
giving the EPA unfettered discretion in making State water quality
[[Page H7338]]
determinations in order to allow the administration to continue
implementing its flawed rule. In effect, the amendment says that the
underlying bill will not apply virtually anywhere the EPA decides that
the bill should not apply. This amendment would further erode the
Federal and State partnership that H.R. 5078 seeks to preserve.
I would urge all 435 Members of this body to take notice. This is
another attempt by the executive branch to take Congress'
constitutional authority away from us. We should all take this as a
serious challenge to us. For too long, this body has allowed the
executive branch to take our authority granted to us by the
Constitution. I say whether it is a Republican or a Democrat
administration, we have to stop that. This bill, H.R. 5078, is a step
in the right direction.
H.R. 5078 is a good bill that maintains the balance of our Nation's
water. We must preserve the State and Federal partnership that has
existed under the Clean Water Act until this administration chose to
impose an overbearing EPA on our States.
I urge a ``no'' vote, and I yield back the balance of my time.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is
ordered on the motion to recommit.
There was no objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that
the noes appeared to have it.
Recorded Vote
Mr. HUFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
A recorded vote was ordered.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, the Chair
will reduce to 5 minutes the minimum time for any electronic vote on
the question of passage.
This is a 5-minute vote.
The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 177,
noes 235, not voting 19, as follows:
