SENATE CS FOR CS FOR HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO.                                
59(RES) was read the third time.                                               
                                                                               
Senator Leman moved and asked unanimous consent that he be                     
shown as a cross sponsor on the resolution.  Without objection, it             
was so ordered.                                                                
                                                                               
The question being: Shall SENATE CS FOR CS FOR HOUSE                           
JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 59(RES) Respectfully requesting the                       
Environmental Protection Agency to issue a final National Pollutant            
Discharge Elimination System permit for Cook Inlet oil and gas                 
operations that omits the incremental permittee monitoring and                 
reporting obligations identified in the Agency's draft permit and,             
consistent with the philosophy of the Agency's 1996 National Water             
Program Agenda, allows the permittees to operate under pollutant               
discharge monitoring and reporting requirements that are not more              
rigorous than those requirements of the Cook Inlet National Pollutant          
Discharge Elimination System permit in place, pass the Senate?                 
The roll was taken with the following result:
