                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. CHAFEE. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, this 
morning the Senate will resume consideration of S. 14, the Energy bill. 
The Graham amendment relating to the Outer Continental Shelf is 
currently pending. Under a previous agreement, there will be up to 90 
minutes of debate prior to the vote on or in relation to the amendment. 
Therefore, the first vote will occur at approximately 11 a.m.
  In addition to the Graham amendment, the Senate will consider other 
amendments to the Energy bill, and Members should expect rollcall votes 
throughout the day.
  It is also possible that the Senate will be able to consider the FAA 
reauthorization later today. We will notify Members if that becomes 
available. Also, the Senate may consider additional nominations on the 
Executive Calendar. We will be working to schedule votes on the 
nominations that can be cleared.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, we recognize there are efforts being made to 
go to the FAA bill. We are attempting to clear that on this side. We 
have a couple of hurdles. I think we have completed one, and we still 
have one other problem to eliminate. We will certainly know that in the 
next hour or so.
  If that is the case, it is my understanding, having spoken to the two 
leaders, after we dispose of the amendments pending, the leader would 
want to go off of the Energy bill and go to the FAA bill. We are trying 
to allow that to happen if we can clear that.
