Resolved, That the Senate Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, or any duly authorized subcommittee thereof, is authorized and directed to make a full and complete investigation and study of the practices and procedures followed by the Federal Power Commission in considering applications for licenses under the Federal Power Act for proposed hydroelectric developments, and in connection therewith the responsibilities of the Secretary of the Interior to participate in the hearings on such applications for the purpose of protecting the public interest in the water resources of the Nation. In making such study and investigation the committee or subcommittee shall devote particular attention to (1) the practices and procedures followed by the Commission, including compliance or noncompliance with its own procedural regulations, in considering the applications filed with the Commission by the Idaho Power Co. for licenses for proposed hydroelectric developments on the Snake River, Idaho, known as the Oxbow, Hells Canyon, and Brownlee developments, and (2) the action of the Secretary of the Interior in withdrawing his intervention in the proceedings involving such applications. Such study and investigation shall be made with a view toward determining whether or not it would be advisable for the Congress to enact any legislation with respect to such practices and procedures and the duties of the Secretary of the Interior in order to insure that in the consideration and final adjudication of applications for licenses under the Federal Power Act for proposed hydroelectric developments the public interest in the development of the water resources of the Nation will be adequately protected.

SEC. 2. The committee shall report to the Senate at the earliest practicable date, but not later than January 10, 1954, the results of the investigation, together with such recommendations for legislation as it may deem advisable.

SEC. 3. For the purposes of this resolution, the committee, or any duly authorized subcommittee thereof, is authorized to employ upon a temporary basis such technical, clerical, and other assistants as it deems advisable. The expenses of the committee under this resolution, which shall not exceed $20,000, shall be paid from the contingent fund of the Senate upon vouchers approved by the chairman of the committee, or subcommittee, as the case may be.

Resolved, That the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, or any duly authorized subcommittee thereof, is authorized and directed (1) to make a full and complete investigation and study of the accessibility of critical raw materials to the United States during a time of war; (2) to study and recommend methods of encouraging developments to assure the availability of supplies of such critical raw materials adequate for the expanding economy and the security of the United States; and (3) to report to the Senate at the earliest possible date, not later than January 3, 1955, the results of its investigations and study, together with its recommendations.
