AI Summary
This Resolution sets forth the rules for considering two bills in the House of Representatives: H.R. 1873 and H.R. 1654. For H.R. 1873, the resolution allows for debate and amendments to a bill that aims to improve the reliability of the electricity grid and reduce wildfire risks on federal lands by making it easier to manage vegetation, referencing the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. For H.R. 1654, the resolution provides for debate and amendments to a bill that would allow the Secretary of the Interior to coordinate federal and state permitting for new surface water storage projects on federal lands and designate the Bureau of Reclamation as the lead agency for processing these permits. In both cases, the resolution waives certain procedural objections, limits debate time, and specifies how amendments can be offered and considered.
