Representative Vezey moved and asked unanimous consent that the                
House consider the Senate message (page 4087) on the following at              
this time:                                                                     
                                                                               
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.

There being no objection, it was so ordered.
