                        S. CON. RES. 21 CHANGES

  Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, section 309 of S. Con. Res. 21, the 2008 
Budget Resolution, permits the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee 
to revise the allocations, aggregates, and other appropriate levels and 
limits for legislation that reauthorizes the Secure Rural Schools and 
Community Self-Determination Act of 2000, makes changes to the Payments 
in Lieu of Taxes Act of 1976, or both, so long as that legislation does 
not worsen the deficit over the period of fiscal years 2007 through 
2012 or fiscal years 2007 through 2017.
  I find that Senate amendment No. 1704 offered by Senator Baucus to 
Senate amendment No. 1502 satisfies the conditions of the deficit-
neutral reserve fund for county payments legislation. Therefore, 
pursuant to section 309, I am adjusting the aggregates in the 2008 
budget resolution, as well as the allocation provided to the Senate 
Energy and Natural Resources Committee.
  I ask unanimous consent that the following revisions to S. Con. Res. 
21 be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:
