The instructions contained in the motion seek to require the bill to be reported back to the House with an amendment requiring TransCanada, the developer of the Keystone XL pipeline, to certify to the President that the oil or other products derived from Canadian oil sands that are transported through the pipeline will be treated similarly to conventional crude oil for the purposes of determining contributions that fund the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund. Companies that transport oil are required to pay 8-cents per barrel into the trust fund that is used by the federal government to respond to oil spills. Oil sands crude is currently exempt from making such contributions. Subsequently, the reservation of a point of order was withdrawn. 11/13/2014 The previous question on the motion to recommit with instructions was ordered without objection. 11/13/2014 POSTPONED PROCEEDINGS - Pursuant to clause 1(c) of rule 19, further proceedings on the motion to recommit with instructions to H.R. 5682 were postponed until a time to be announced. 11/14/2014 Considered as unfinished business. 11/14/2014 Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection. select this vote Vote 11/14/2014 On Motion to Recommit with Instructions: H R 5682 To approve the Keystone XL Pipeline currently selected House Vote on Passage 11/14/2014 H.R. 5682 (113th): To approve the Keystone XL Pipeline. 11/17/2014 Received in the Senate.
