                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. REID. I ask unanimous consent that at 11:30 a.m., the Senate 
proceed to executive session under the previous order to consider the 
Campbell-Smith and Kaplan nominations, both nominees to the Federal 
Claims Court; further, that following the disposition of those 
nominees, the Senate recess until 2:15 this afternoon to allow for the 
weekly caucus meetings; and, finally, that at 2:15, the Senate resume 
consideration of S. 1392, the Energy Savings and Industrial 
Competitiveness Act.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  Mr. REID. We are trying to come up with a finite list of amendments 
to move forward on that legislation. We hope that, in fact, can happen.
  It is my understanding Senator Vitter has an amendment he wants to 
offer. He has been on the floor a few times during the time we have 
been in session. We would have an amendment, or second-degree side-by-
side, to his amendment. In order to do that, we have to have a finite 
list of amendments. We can't go on with unrelated amendments forever on 
this bill. So there will be one rollcall vote and we hope to vote on 
energy efficiency amendments whenever there is an agreement that can be 
made.
