                  ORDERS FOR WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 2002

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the Senate 
completes its business today, it stand adjourned until 9:30 a.m. 
Wednesday, July 31; that on Wednesday, following the prayer and the 
pledge, the Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the morning 
hour be deemed expired, and the time for the two leaders be reserved 
for their use later in the day; that the Senate then resume 
consideration of Calendar No. 491, S. 812, as provided for under the 
previous order; provided further that after the first vote on the 
motion to waive the Budget Act with respect to the Graham amendment, 
there be 2 minutes of debate before each succeeding vote, equally 
divided and controlled in the usual form; and each succeeding vote 
following the first in the sequence be 10 minutes in duration; that the 
mandatory quorum required under rule XXII be waived with respect to the 
cloture motion and the conference report accompanying H.R. 3009.
  I have a parliamentary inquiry, Mr. President. Under this unanimous 
consent agreement, would the debate time prior to the vote on judicial 
nomination of Brooks Smith be 2 minutes equally divided?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Yes. The Senator is correct in assuming that.
  Mr. REID. I ask unanimous consent that be modified to give Senator 
Leahy 2\1/2\ minutes and Senator Hatch 2\1/2\ minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
