THURSDAY, AUGUST 17, 1972

U.S. SENATE,

COMMITTEE ON THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA,

Washington, D.C.

The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 9:45 a.m., in room 6226, New Senate Office Building, Senator Thomas F. Eagleton (chairman of the committee) presiding.

Present: Senators Eagleton and Buckley.

Staff present: Gene E. Godley, general counsel; Robert Maynard. counsel; and Sidney H. Hurlburt, minority staff director.

The CHAIRMAN. We will now commence hearings on S. 3861, a bill to convey the Federal interest in the Alexandria waterfront in exchange for a land-use plan.

Similar bills were reported out of both the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate District of Columbia Committee during the 91st Congress.

The Senate District Committee reported the bill and it passed the Senate, although it did not pass the House.

A companion bill, H.R. 15550, has been reported from the House District of Columbia Committee this year and is presently awaiting action on the House floor.

I now place in the record a copy of S. 3861 and a report from the District of Columbia government on that bill.

(The bill and report referred to follows:)
