(f) Nullification of Rules Disapproved by Congress.--Any rule that takes effect and later is made of no force or effect by the enactment of a joint resolution under section 4 shall be treated as though such rule had never taken effect.

HARKIN (AND OTHERS) AMENDMENT NO. 411
Mr. HARKIN (for himself, Mr. Graham, and Mr. D'Amato) proposed an amendment to amendment No. 410 proposed by Mr. Nickles to the bill S. 219, supra; as follows:
At the appropriate place insert the following:
SEC. . SENSE OF SENATE REGARDING AMERICAN CITIZENS HELD IN
IRAQ.
(a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:
(1) On Saturday, March 25, 1995, an Iraqi court sentenced two Americans, William Barloon and David Daliberti, to eight years imprisonment for allegedly entering Iraq without permission.
(2) The two men were tried, convicted, and sentenced in what was reported to be a very brief period during that day with no other Americans present and with their only legal counsel having been appointed by the Government of Iraq.
(3) The Department of State has stated that the two Americans have committed no offense justifying imprisonment and has demanded that they be released immediately.
(4) This injustice worsens already strained relations between the United States and Iraq and makes resolution of differences with Iraq more difficult.
(b) Sense of Senate.--The Senate strongly condemns the unjustified actions taken by the Government of Iraq against American citizens William Barloon and David Daliberti and urges their immediate release from prison and safe exit from Iraq. Further, the Senate urges the President of the United States to take all appropriate action to assure their prompt release and safe exit from Iraq.

DASCHLE (AND PRESSLER) AMENDMENT NO. 414
Mr. REID (for Mr. Daschle and Mr. Pressler) proposed an amendment to amendment No. 410 proposed by Mr. Nickles to the bill S. 219, supra; as follows:
At the appropriate place insert the following:
TITLE ____--TERM GRAZING PERMITS
SEC. ____01. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
(1) the Secretary of Agriculture (referred to in this Act as the ``Secretary'') administers the 191,000,000-acre National Forest System for multiple uses in accordance with Federal law;
(2) where suitable, 1 of the recognized multiple uses for National Forest System land is grazing by livestock;
(3) the Secretary authorizes grazing through the issuance of term grazing permits that have terms of not to exceed 10 years and that include terms and conditions necessary for the proper administration of National Forest System land and resources;
(4) as of the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary has issued approximately 9,000 term grazing permits authorizing grazing on approximately 90,000,000 acres of National Forest System land;
(5) of the approximately 9,000 term grazing permits issued by the Secretary, approximately one-half have expired or will expire by the end of 1996;
(6) if the holder of an expiring term grazing permit has complied with the terms and conditions of the permit and remains eligible and qualified, that individual is considered to be a preferred applicant for a new term grazing permit in the event that the Secretary determines that grazing remains an appropriate use of the affected National Forest System land;
(7) in addition to the approximately 9,000 term grazing permits issued by the Secretary, it is estimated that as many as 1,600 term grazing permits may be waived by permit holders to the Secretary in favor of a purchaser of the permit holder's permitted livestock or base property by the end of 1996;
(8) to issue new term grazing permits, the Secretary must comply with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and other laws;
(9) for a large percentage of the grazing permits that will expire or be waived to the Secretary by the end of 1996, the Secretary has devised a strategy that will result in
[[Page S4739]] compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and other applicable laws (including regulations) in a timely and efficient manner and enable the Secretary to issue new term grazing permits, where appropriate;
(10) for a small percentage of the grazing permits that will expire or be waived to the Secretary by the end of 1996, the strategy will not provide for the timely issuance of new term grazing permits; and
(11) in cases in which ranching operations involve the use of a term grazing permit issued by the Secretary, it is essential for new term grazing permits to be issued in a timely manner for financial and other reasons.
(b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to ensure that grazing continues without interruption on National Forest System land in a manner that provides long-term protection of the environment and improvement of National Forest System rangeland resources while also providing short-term certainty to holders of expiring term grazing permits and purchasers of a permit holder's permitted livestock or base property.
SEC. ____02. DEFINITIONS.
In this Act:
(1) Expiring term grazing permit.--The term ``expiring term grazing permit'' means a term grazing permit--
(A) that expires in 1995 or 1996; or
(B) that expired in 1994 and was not replaced with a new term grazing permit solely because the analysis required by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and other applicable laws has not been completed.
(2) Final agency action.--The term ``final agency action'' means agency action with respect to which all available administrative remedies have been exhausted.

(1) to the holder of an expiring term grazing permit ; or
(2) to the purchaser of a term grazing permit holder's permitted livestock or base property if--
