                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. FRIST. This morning the Senate will conduct a period for morning 
business until 10:30 a.m. Following morning business, we expect to 
begin the Energy Policy Act conference report. If we are unable to 
reach consent for a time limit on the Energy conference report, it may 
be necessary to file cloture during today's session. In all likelihood, 
the Senate also will be taking up other conference reports as they 
become available, as well as nominations on the Executive Calendar 
during tomorrow's session. Therefore, rollcall votes should be expected 
throughout the day. Leadership on both sides of the aisle has notified 
Senators that in all likelihood it will be necessary for us to work 
through the weekend. We are on target to complete our work this week, 
but it looks as though we will be in session working on Saturday and 
perhaps Sunday to complete action on the Energy and Medicare conference 
reports, as well as the appropriations measures.
