                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. MACK. Mr. President, today the Senate will be in a period of 
morning business until 11 a.m., for those Senators who wish to make 
final statements in remembrance of our former friend and colleague, 
Senator Paul Coverdell.
  Following morning business, Senator designate Zell Miller will be 
sworn in to serve as United States Senator. After the ceremony and a 
few remarks, the Senate will proceed to a cloture vote on the motion to 
proceed to the energy and water appropriations bill. At the conclusion 
of the vote, the Senate will proceed to the consideration of the 
conference report to accompany the Department of Defense appropriations 
bill, with a vote to occur at approximately 3:15 p.m. For the remainder 
of the day, the Senate is expected to begin postcloture debate on the 
motion to proceed to the energy and water appropriations bill.
  It is hoped that a vote on cloture on the motion to proceed to the 
PNTR China legislation can be moved to occur at a time to be determined 
during today's session. I thank my colleagues for their attention.
