COMMUNICATION FROM STATE BOARD OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS

The SPEAKER. The Chair wishes to announce that it is in receipt of a copy of an amendment to the regulations of the State Board o f Landscape Architects.

1983 LEGISLATIVE JOURNAL-HOUSE 59

Dear Representative Irvis:

Enclosed is a copy of an amendment to the regulations of the State Board of Landscape Architects, which raises the current examination fee from $75.00 to $150.00.

The fee per candidate, as currently charged, covers only fifty (50) percent of the entire examination cost. Therefore, the $75.00 increase is necessary so that sufficient revenue will be generated to meet the Board's entire costs in giving theexamination.

The Board's authority to raise this fee is provided by Section 4 of the Act of June 17, 1982, which amends the Landscape Archi- tects' Registration Law. Notice of proposed rulemaking is being dispensed with as authorized by Section 204(3) of the CDL 145 P.S. 51204(?)] because proposing the amendment before adopt- ing it would result in a delay that, under the circumstances, is impracticable. Reasons for omitting proposed rulemaking are further elaborated upon in the Preamble to the regulation.

ADMINISTRATIVE RULES REPORT NO. 2

Notice of proposed rulemaking is omitted pursuant to Section 204(3) of the CDL 145 P.S. 51204(3)] because the State Board of Landscape Architects finds that compliance with the procedures set forth in Sections 201 and 202 of the CDL 145 P.S. $51201 and 12011 would cause a lengthy delay in the adoption of the regulation which, given the present circumstances, is impracticable. This regulation must become effective by the beginning of Febru- ary, 1983, for the following reasons. All individuals who desire to take the upcoming examination, which is to take place on June 13, 1983, are required to submit their application no later than April 1, 1983, due to the provisions of 49 Pa.

T h e Chair suggests that the members pay attention. This is 1 your first , vote . o f substance o n the floor o f this House in this 1 session.

T h e Chair recognizes the gentleman, Mr. Hutchinson.


Mr. HUTCHINSON. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, what my resolution will do is ask the Presi-

dent of the United States to give us the money-it is running anywhere between $90 million and $500 million-that is sup- posed to be held up. The reason 1 came to this was that there are 800,000 people out of work in Pennsylvania, and I think that if he can reprieve and pardon other people, 1 think at least they could pardon the State of Pennsylvania. We are one of the worst States in people laid off , especially in western Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia area. What I want to do is ask the President of the United States to give us the money and figure out what we are going to do down the road in a couple of years when the steel mills start working again.

The reason I came up with this resolution, I was sitting watching television last Thursday, and I watched the breadlines in Pittsburgh and all these steelworkers getting food. I said, how are they going to get money to have their cars inspected at this time? The thing was, 1 thought of different people whom different Presidents have pardoned and reprieved, and one of them was Jim Hoffa. I do not know whether they did him a favor or not, but he was one of them, and 1 d o not have to mention the other gentleman; I am non- partisan right now.

Then coming down today I find out they are setting up breadlines and soup lines in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and every other city of any size that has people laid off, and 1 think this is the wrong time, guilty or not, to start going to emissions control. I d o not know whether he will do it or not; I d o not know whether it is legal, but at least I think the Senate and the House should ask the President to look at it to see if he can d o that. Thank you very much.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair now recognizes the minority leader. Mr. RYAN. Mr. Speaker, what Mr. Hutchinson has done is

he has introduced a resolution. He has asked us to consider it immediately, and what he is telling us is that there is great unemployment in Pennsylvania, which of course is true. He is suggesting that we can memorialize the President of the United States and somehow or another have the President of the United States overturn the decision of a Federal court, which has withheld this money from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania until the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania comes into compliance with the emissions control program.

Now, I think 1 would be foolish to suggest to any of the members to vote against this particular resolution. However, I think that if anyone seriously believes that this is a legitimate resolution in the sense that it can solve anything, they are mis- taken. I would hate to think that the unemployed of Pennsyl- vania would rely on the passage of such a resolution, thinking that there is going to be construction of bridges and highways as a result of it. Let me explain, if I may, what is going through my mind as I say that.

Judge Bechtle in the eastern district has put a prohibition on the further disbursement of Federal funds for bridges and highways. If you recall, and 1 did not know this resolution was going to be introduced until about a half an hour ago, but if you recall, the then Secretary of Transportation, Drew

Lewis, who is a Pennsylvanian, tried his best to free up some of the money from the Bechtle order. To suggest that if he were able he would not have released the funds I think is foolish. Drew Lewis, as Secretary of Transportation, did not have the authority to overturn Judge Bechtle's orders. 1 do not believe, under the separation of powers, that President Reagan has the ability to release that money.

I would make a further suggestion, however, to the gentleman, Mr. Hutchinson. As I have met with legislators, both sides of the aisle-l am not saying Democrat or Republican; I am saying both sides of the aisle-who are from the western part of Pennsylvania, who are in my opinion intimidated by the Pittsburgh Press into being placed in a position that they believe in order to secure these funds the emissions control program has to pass but who are concerned about the vend- etta leveled against various members who go against the editorial policies of that paper, that pretty soon you are going to have to bite the bullet and decide if these jobs are in fact needed and if these jobs can come about because of the freeing up of these Federal funds, and then pretty soon you are going to have to tell Mr. Troan, the editor or managing editor of that paper, that the good of the people comes before the editorial policies of that particular newspaper.

This resolution cannot do it. This resolution cannot accom- plish one single thing other than to express to the people of Pennsylvania that we are concerned. We have exhausted the judicial remedies that are available to us. We are caught with a Federal court order to enforce a consent decree that was entered into some years ago by the then Governor, and there is not a thing we can do or this administration can do at this time other than pass the emissions control program.

So 1 am saying to you, politically you have to vote for this resolution. For all practical purposes, however, I do not believe that it will have any worthwhile effect or any meaningful effect. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the majority leader. Mr. MANDERINO. Mr. Speaker, very briefly, maybe Mr.

Ryan has only one thing to do on emissions control and that is to pass it, but I venture to say that there are a number of members of this assembly who will not vote for the passage of that particular legislation.

Mr. Speaker, this is a legitimate resolution. The withhold- ing of Federal funds for the roads and bridges of Pennsyl- vania by the Clean Air Act is placed in the hands of the Secre- tary of Transportation in the Federal Government. It is not placed in Judge Bechtle's hands. The act itself says that the funds can be withheld by the Secretary of the Department of Transportation in the Federal Government, and we are simply saying to the President of the United States, who appoints the Secretary of Transportation, tell your Secretary of Trans- portation to release the funds.

It is a legitimate resolution. 1 ask every member, for the( reason that there may be something accomplished by the resolution, to vote in favor of the resolution. Whether or not former Secretary of Transportation Drew Lewis did every- thing in his power to send those funds to Pennsylvania is

1983 LEGISLATIVE

problematic. He is, or was at that time, the Secretary of Transportation who had the sole power to withhold the funds. Mr. Speaker, I ask for an affirmative vote on the resolution.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Beaver, Mr.

Laughlin. Mr. LAUGHLIN. Mr. Speaker, very briefly, the minority

leader indicates that there is a concern about the editor from the Pittsburgh Press. I for one am not intimidated by the editor of the Pittsburgh Press or any other media.

Mr. Speaker, very clearly, what the gentleman did not indi- cate was his willingness to help the people of western Pennsyl- vania and eastern Pennsylvania to survive the amount of additional cost that is being applied to them because of this emissions;.ruling. Now, 1 know that Judge Bechtle's ruling overrides Hnything that this legislature does with regard to his actions and that the only recourse we have is a resolution to the President or to Congress that Mr. Hutchinson is proposing and I support, but I would ask the minority leader this question: How willing is he to take moneys that are being saved for the rest of the State and to apply them for the cost of the emissions to take the cost off our individual people who are going to be forced to pay it? There may be 1 million people in this State who have a vehicle that will he inspected. There may be 3 million. Out of that 3 million, 15 percent will not pass the test.

Mr. Speaker, I am saying that this legislature has an obliga- tion to provide the money to pay for that inspection, for the purchase of that equipment, and for the staffing of those areas where the inspection would he made, and that in turn would lift the cost, additional cost, off the backs of the people whom we represent. 1 am saying the emissions law can be passed in this House and Senate and passed by the Governor. However, let us get together and let us try to relieve our people of those costs and only force a small percentage of the costs onto the people instead of 100 or 150 millions of dollars Out of the consumers' pockets that they can no longer afford. That is the kind of recommendation I am going to make, Mr. Speaker, and that is the kind of recommendation 1 hope as minority leader you will support.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the minority leader. Mr. RYAN. I thank thechair . I d o not have the Judge Bechtle order in front of me, but I

have had a report from our staff people that contradicts what the gentleman, Mr. Manderino, suggested. The information that I have is that Judge Bechtle's order in fact prohibited the disbursement of funds by the Federal Government to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Secretary of Trans- portation, then Drew Lewis, was able to obligate the funds to Pennsylvania so that we did not forfeit them as a result of the Bechtle order but was powerless to distribute in the face of .hat order.

So 1 essentially am where 1 was a moment ago, and that is that I think you should vote for this resolution because it would be difficult to explain why you did not. I think it is cruel in a sense that we might offer some ray of hope to people

JOURNAL-HOUSE 63

who think as a result of something like this that we are going to free up that money, because 1 d o not believe that this is meaningful at all. We all over the past several years passed any number of resolutions memorializing Congress to change the Clean Air Act, unsuccessfully I might say, and I do not think this resolution is really going to d o much good. But I know Mr. Hutchinson is well intentioned. 1 know by this resolution he is attempting to point out the difficult straits that many Pennsylvanians are in, and 1 d o not challenge his moti- vation at all. But by the same token, I think you should know what you are voting upon. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Allegheny, Mr.

Trello. Mr. TRELLO. Mr. Speaker, 1 think this resolution is just

as legitimate as any resolution that we have passed here memorializing Congress or the President of the United States, but one thing my 93-year-old father always taught me is that nobody ever gets poor from asking. So we are asking. Thank you.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Westmoreland,

Mr. Petrarca. Mr. PETRARCA. Mr. Speaker, the minority leader

alluded to a ray of hope. About a year ago I wrote to Gover- nor Thornburgh, to 435 Congressmen, to our 100 Senators. I asked them to intervene. Judge Bechtle is only following the legislative order. I said to them, let us amend the Clean Air Act; takeemissions out of it.

If you have been reading the newspaper now, especially in my district of Westmoreland, it is cleaner than up in the mountains. There is nobody working. I would like to see another reading on the Clean Air Act. In Pittsburgh where they moved this apparatus 100 yards, it is now clean. They kept this apparatus over the diesel buses that ran continu- ously. In Westmoreland County, in my district, everybody to a man opposes emissions. When we in America went to the moon, we had the technology to go to the moon. When we tried to clean up our rivers, we fell flat on our face. We are putting clean water in a dirty river. Now we come by with this sham and charade and say, no, the airplanes do not have to comply with the Clean Air Act; the buses do not: the trucks do not; the trains do not; the diesel cars do not, but that senior citizen does, who uses his car maybe once or twice a week to go to church or the grocery store. It is wrong.

When I called upon the Governor to have a joint meeting of the House and Senate in the well of this House and invite all 23 Congressmen, nothing happened. He vetoed the bill. If there is a ray of hope, let us support Amos Hutchinson. Let us fight, because the people do not want it. And anyone who votes against it or is for emission control, I hope to God they lose their seat, Mr. Speaker.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman and takes note that God may not have much to d o with who wins elec- tions.

The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Westmoreland, Mr. Hutchinson.

The following roll call was recorded:

Mr. HUTCHINSON. Years ago my father said, faint heart never won fair lady, and you keep going. And about 6 months or 2 years ago I received a letter from somebody when 1 put a resolution in that it was political. I d o not think it is political, and Judge Musmanno-l d o not think he was a judge; he might have been a Representative then-he wrote a book that if there is no smoke coming out the stacks, there is no work underneath, and I believe this fact. And I said before I d o not know how legal this is. I d o not know what Reagan is going to d o with it. The same as Matt Ryan said, I want to try it a t least t o see if he says no. Thank you very much.

The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The question is, will the House agree t o the resolution?

Those in favor of the resolution will vote "aye"; those opposed will vote "no," and may God have mercy on Your souls.

On the question recurring, Will the House adopt the resolution?

SENATE BILL FOR CONCURRENCE

The clerk of the Senate, being introduced, presented the following bill for concurrence:

SB 79, PN 79

Referred to Committee on RULES, January 31, 1983.

ANNOUNCEMENT BY SPEAKER

The SPEAKER. The Chair would like to make this announcement, especially for the new members. The old ones ought to know better, but they had better listen, too.

The Chief Clerk has informed the Chair that members are calling the amendment room and asking that their names be added either as sponsors of an amendment or sponsors of a bill. This must not be done. You must sign your own name to a bill, preferably when it is being circulated, not call on the telephone and tell someone to put your name on the bill. If after the bill is printed you wish to add your name as a sponsor, then under rule 18 you must notify the prime sponsor by providing him or her a written notice, and you must notify the Speaker, the majority leader, and the minority leader. Otherwise, your name cannot be added after a bill is printed. But apparently some of you are doing this as a matter of routine, calling down to the Chief Clerk saying, add my name to the bill; add my name to the amendment. This you must not do, and you must not blame the Chief Clerk's assis- tants if they turn you down when you ask that. You should sign the amendment yourself or the bill yourself, or if it is too late to do that, then notify the Speaker, the majority leader, the minority leader, and the chief sponsor.
