On the recordMay 7, 1997
I ask if the Senator from Arkansas is aware of the circumstances under which the Secretary of the Interior initiated his arbitrary decision recognizing what the law says. I have a chart here. I will ask my friend from Arkansas relative to what R.S. 2477 says. The statute's authority grants right-of-way for the construction of highways over public lands not reserved for public use. We have defined, if you will, what it means as far as a highway is concerned.
