Senator HASKELL. Thank you very much, Mr. Hagenstein. Most of your suggestions are of a technical nature, not that they are unimportant, but technical in the sense of clarifying and this type of thing. I would ask the staff, the minority and the majority, to go over them and confer, and see which ones they might feel are meritorious. Mr. MacCleery, is your statement rather long?

Mr. MACCLEERY. About 8 minutes, or so.

Senator HASKELL. Any other people who are witnesses, if these votes keep on all afternoon, I am going to have to adjourn this hearing to another time, because I don't think it is fair to the people who are testifying, and it is not really fair to me or to any other Senator who wishes to be here, to have this 5-minute type of hearing.

I will be back, Mr. MacCleery, after I go over to the Senate floor, and I will just have to play it by ear from there.

[Whereupon, a recess was taken.]

Mr. QUARLES. It would appear that the situation on the floor precludes receiving further testimony today. Therefore, the hearing will be adjourned, subject to the call of the Chair.

[Whereupon, at 2:35 p.m. the hearing was adjourned, subject to the call of the Chair.]

MANAGEMENT OF NATIONAL RESOURCE LANDS

THURSDAY, MAY 15, 1975

U.S. SENATE,

SUBCOMMITTEE ON ENVIRONMENT AND LAND RESOURCES,
OF THE COMMITTEE ON INTERIOR AND INSULAR AFFAIRS,

Washington, D.C.

The subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 10 a.m., in room 3110, Dirksen Office Building, Hon. Floyd K. Haskell presiding. Present: Senators Haskell, Metcalf, Fannin, and Hansen.

Also present: Steven P. Quarles, counsel; Thomas B. Williams, professional staff member; and W. O. Craft, Jr., deputy minority counsel.

Senator HASKELL. The subcommittee will come to order. This is the time and place set for the hearing on S. 507, the National Resource Lands Management Act, and S. 1292, the administration's proposal.

S. 1292 was submitted by the administration too late to be considered at the March 7 hearing. I will, however, insert it in the record at this point.

[The bill and Department report follow:]
