Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation be discharged from 
further consideration of S. 1069 and the Senate proceed to its 
immediate consideration.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bill by title.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 1069) to require the Secretary of Commerce, 
     acting through the Administrator of the National Oceanic and 
     Atmospheric Administration, to establish a constituent-driven 
     program to provide a digital information platform capable of 
     efficiently integrating coastal data with decision-support 
     tools, training, and best practices and to support collection 
     of priority coastal geospatial data to inform and improve 
     local, State, regional, and Federal capacities to manage the 
     coastal region, and for other purposes.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the bill, 
which had been reported from the Committee on Commerce, Science, and 
Transportation.
  Mr. PORTMAN. I ask unanimous consent that the bill be considered read 
a third time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The bill was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading and was read

  Mr. PORTMAN. I know of no further debate on the bill.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. If there is no further debate, the bill having 
been read the third time, the question is, Shall the bill pass?
  The bill (S. 1069) was passed.
  Mr. PORTMAN. I ask unanimous consent that the motion to reconsider be
