So Mr. Bumpers' amendment was rejected. 



Mr. HoLLiNGS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that, on 

 final passage, the rollcall be limited to 10 minutes. 



The Presiding Officer. Without objection, it is so ordered. 



Mr. HoLLiNGS. Mr. President, in behalf of our colleagues, we are 

 going to have one amendment by the Senator from Ohio. The managers 

 of the bill are willing to accept it. I understand our distinguished col- 

 league from Oklahoma will have a statement against this bill. Then 

 we are ready to go to the 10-minute rollcall for final passage. We should 

 be voting for final passage in the next 10 minutes. 



The Presiding Officer. The amendment will be stated. 



The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to read the amendment. 



Mr. Glenn. I ask unanimous consent that further reading of the 

 amendment be dispensed with. 



The Presiding Officer. Without objection, it is so ordered. 



On page 20, line 21, after "facility," insert "such criteria shall insure that grants 

 and loans under this section relating to impacts resulting from the exploration, 

 development, and production of energy resources offshore and related energy fa- 

 cilities shall receive first priority among competing applications." 



Mr. Glenn. Mr. President, I thank the distinguished floor leader 

 on this bill. What this does is take up the colloquy of this afternoon on 

 the intent of this bill and puts it in legislative language. 



It has been agreed to by the minority and majority leaders. I will 

 read the applicable part : At page 20, line 21, after "facility," and such 

 criteria shall insure that grants and loans made under this section 

 relating to impacts resulting from exploration, development, and pro- 

 duction of energy resources offshore and related facilities shall receive 

 first priority among competing applications. 



All this does is make certain that we do give priority in those areas. 

 It has been accepted. I am happy to accept a voice vote. 



Mr. PIoLLiNGS. Mr. President, the Senator stated the priority very 

 ■well in this amendment. We accept it. 



Mr. Stevens. We accept it. 



Mr. Rollings. I am will to yield back the remainder of my time. 



The Presiding Officer. The question is on agreeing to the amend- 

 ment. 



The amendment was agreed to. 



The Presiding Officer. If there are no further amendments to be 

 offered, the question is on the engrossment and third reading of the 

 bill. 



The bill was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading and was 

 read the third time. 



Mr. Stevens. The Senator from Oklahoma has requested time. I 

 ■yield him 5 minutes. 



Mr. Bellmon. Mr. President, there are two points I wish to raise 

 in connection with this bill. The first relates to the costs. 



The distinguished chairman of the Committee on the Budget and I 

 have been discussing the matter. We are not quite clear on just what
