                      Mr. HASTINGS of Washington, from the Committee on Rules,

                                           REPORT

                                       [To accompany H. Res. 455]
                    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House
                  Resolution 455, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to the House
                  with the recommendation that the resolution be adopted.
                             SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION
                    The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 3671, the
                  Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Programs Improvement Act of
                  2000, under an open rule. The rule provides one hour of general de-
                  bate divided equally between the chairman and ranking minority
                  member of the Committee on Resources.
                    The rule waives clause 4(a) of rule XIII (requiring a three-day
                  layover of the committee report) against consideration of the bill.
                  The rule makes in order the Committee on Resources amendment
                  in the nature of a substitute now printed in the bill as an original
                  bill for the purpose of amendment, which shall be open for amend-
                  ment at any point. The rule further waives clause 4 of rule XXI
                  (prohibiting appropriations in a legislative bill) against the com-
                  mittee amendment in the nature of a substitute.
                    The rule provides that the amendment printed in this report
                  shall be considered as read, shall not be subject to amendment, and
                  shall not be subject to a demand for a division of the question in
                  the House or in the Committee on the Whole. All points of order
                  against the amendment printed in this report are waived. The
                  waiver of all points of order includes a waiver of clause 7 of rule
                  XVI (prohibiting nongermane amendments), which is necessary be-
                  cause the amendment made in order under the rule contains a pro-
                  vision changing the effective date of the excise taxes on fishing
                     79-008
