Madam Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and\nconcur in the Senate amendment to the bill (H.R. 443) to provide for\nthe conveyance of certain property from the United States to the\nManiilaq Association located in Kotzebue, Alaska.\n  The Clerk read the title of the bill.\n  The text of the Senate amendment is as follows:\n\n       Senate amendment:\n       Strike all after the enacting clause and insert the\n     following:\n\n     SECTION 1. CONVEYANCE OF PROPERTY.\n\n       (a) In General.--As soon as practicable after the date of\n     the enactment of this Act, but not later than 180 days after\n     such date, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (in\n     this Act referred to as the ``Secretary'') shall convey to\n     the Maniilaq Association located in Kotzebue, Alaska, all\n     right, title, and interest of the United States in and to the\n     property described in section 2 for use in connection with\n     health and social services programs.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY.\n\n       (a) In General.--Notwithstanding any other provision of\n     Federal law, the Maniilaq Association shall not be liable for\n     any soil, surface water, groundwater, or other contamination\n     resulting from the disposal, release, or presence of any\n     environmental contamination, including any oil or petroleum\n     products, or any hazardous substances, hazardous materials,\n     hazardous waste, pollutants, toxic substances, solid waste,\n     or any other environmental contamination or hazard as defined\n     in any Federal or State of Alaska law, on any property\n     described in section 2 on or before the date on which all of\n     the properties described in section 2 were conveyed by\n     quitclaim deed.\n       (b) Easement.--The Secretary shall be accorded any easement\n     or access to the property conveyed as may be reasonably\n     necessary to satisfy any retained obligations and liability\n     of the Secretary.\n       (c) Notice of Hazardous Substance Activity and Warranty.--\n     The Secretary shall comply with section 120(h)(3)(A) and (B)\n     of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,\n     and Liability Act of 1980 (42 U.S.C. 9620(h)(3)(A)).\n  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from\nAlaska (Mr. Young) and the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Grijalva) each\nwill control 20 minutes.\n  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Alaska.\n\n                             General Leave\n\n  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all\nMembers may have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their remarks\nand include extraneous materials on the bill under consideration.\n  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the\ngentleman from Alaska?\n  There was no objection.\n  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may\nconsume.\n  My bill, H.R. 443, directs the Indian Health Service to transfer 15\nacres of Federal land in Alaska to the Maniilaq Association by warranty\ndeed. The IHS has already conveyed these lands to the association by\nquitclaim deed; however, under Federal Indian health laws, transferring\nland by quitclaim deed could present some obstacles to the future use\nof the land by the association. The association is a nonprofit entity\nthat runs Federal Indian health services for Native people in northwest\nAlaska. The land subject to this legislation is currently the site of a\nNative health facility and of proposed long-term care facilities and\nemployee housing.\n  The administration testified in support of the land transfer, and we\nhave heard no other objections to this bill which passed the House over\na year ago by a 407-4 vote. The Senate amendment before us today makes\nfour small technical changes to the bill, including changing verb\ntenses, clarifying the timing of the conveyance, and clarifying a\ndefinition. None are controversial and, some might say, even necessary.\n  I, again, thank Chairman Upton of the Energy and Commerce Committee\nfor allowing H.R. 443, a bill that we share jurisdiction over, to be\nconsidered on the floor today.\n  I urge the House to adopt the Senate amendment, and I reserve the\nbalance of my time.\n  Mr. GRIJALVA. I yield myself such time as I may consume.\n  Madam Speaker, we do not object to the Senate amendment to H.R. 443,\nand I yield back the balance of my time.\n  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Madam Speaker, I have no other requests for\ntime. I urge the passage of the legislation, and I yield back the\nbalance of my time.\n  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the\ngentleman from Alaska (Mr. Young) that the House suspend the rules and\nconcur in the Senate amendment to the bill, H.R. 443.\n  The question was taken.\n  The SPEAKER pro tempore. In the opinion of the Chair, two-thirds\nbeing in the affirmative, the ayes have it.\n  Mr. GRIJALVA. Madam Speaker, I object to the vote on the ground that\na quorum is not present and make the point of order that a quorum is\nnot present.\n  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, further\nproceedings on this question will be postponed.\n  The point of no quorum is considered withdrawn.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2012-12-31-pt1-PgH7491"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.5002039251849055, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
