(1) The marine life inhabiting the world's oceans is one of our planet's
most important resources.
(2) There has been a major increase in the last several years in the use
of long plastic driftnets as a fishery technique.
(3) Finding that the use of these driftnets is a wasteful, indiscriminate,
and destructive fishing technique that results in the entanglement and death
of enormous numbers of target and nontarget fish, marine mammals, seabirds,
and other living marine resources, Congress passed and the President signed
into law the Driftnet Impact Monitoring, Assessment, and Control Act of 1987.
(4) Pursuant to the law, the United States has just, after two years of
negotiations, entered into bilateral agreements with Japan, Korea, and Taiwan
to allow some monitoring and control of driftnet fleets in the North Pacific.
(5) In that same two-year period, use of the driftnet fishery technique
has spread to the South Pacific Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
(6) The continued use of this fishing technique could decimate entire
regional fisheries, and also results in the interception of North American
salmon in violation of accepted principles of international law.
(7) The continued use of driftnets presents a worldwide ecological crisis
of such complexity and magnitude that cannot be met by a continued series
of bilateral monitoring agreements.
(8) This worldwide crisis must be addressed through a multinational effort.
(b) It is the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of State is encouraged
to take immediate steps to secure an international multilateral ban on the
use of driftnets (as defined in Driftnet Impact Monitoring, Assessment,
and Control Act of 1987 (16 U.S.C. 1822 note) on the high seas. In this
effort the Secretary is encouraged to bring before the United Nations a
resolution calling for a worldwide moratorium on the use of driftnets on
the high seas until such time as the adverse impacts of driftnet fishing
can be prevented and the conservation of the world's living resources can
be ensured.

interim memorandum describing the progress that has been made in implementing
the memorandum of understanding referred to in paragraph (1);
(3) the reports referred to in paragraph (1) and the interim memorandums
referred to in paragraph (2) should assess, in detail, whether the
requirements concerning, and the prohibitions on, the transfer of United
States technologies to Japan, as provided in the memorandum of understanding
referred to in paragraph (1), have been and are being complied with; and
(4) the Comptroller General should continue to submit such reports and
interim memorandums so long as the memorandum of understanding referred

(1) officials representing eight United States airports recently met with
Secretary Skinner to discuss the need for more airport gateways for United
States cities for international service;
(2) these officials believe that the United States Government must place
greater emphasis in United States international aviation negotiations on
maximizing the new international trade opportunities;
(3) direct nonstop air service to foreign destinations facilitates
international business for our country's industries, attracts foreign
investment, makes travel abroad more convenient for United States citizens
and increases foreign tourism;
(4) direct international air transport is especially important to tourism
and the high-tech industries on the cutting edge of our Nation's drive for
international competitiveness, both of which tend to be located away from
traditional air service gateways;
(5) a single nonstop air service to a previously unserved foreign point
can result in economic benefits to the United States community alone of
up to a quarter of a billion dollars or more in the first year, with the
benefits compounding thereafter; and
(6) the time savings to United States travelers alone from such a service
are greater than profits United States airlines would lose, if any, from
traffic diversion.
(b) It is the sense of the Senate that the United States Senate supports
the designation of markets previously without nonstop international air
service as new `gateways', and believes that other airlines, United States
or foreign, be able to provide `gateway' service when United States airlines
already serving the foreign country in question fail to do so.

Japanese construction firms formed an association known as the `United
States Military Construction Safety Technical Research Association' which
engaged in widespread bidding activity on contracts funded by the United
States Government at the United States naval facility in Yokosuka, Japan,
from 1984 through 1987.
(2) The Senate finds that in December 1988, these one hundred and forty
Japanese construction companies received warnings from the Japan Fair Trade
Commission for bid-rigging activities at the United States naval facility
in Yokosuka, Japan.
(3) The Senate finds that seventy of these construction firms were fined
by the Japan Fair Trade Commission for serious bid-rigging activities at
the United States naval facility in Yokosuka, Japan.
(4) The Senate finds that the United States Department of Defense has
proposed for debarment, eight companies, twenty corporate officials, and
four subsidiary firms involved in bid-rigging activities at the United
States naval facility in Yokosuka, Japan.
(5) The Senate finds that the aforementioned bid-rigging activities have
seriously undermined the procurement process at the United States naval
facility in Yokosuka, Japan.
(6) The Senate finds that bid-rigging at the United States naval facility
in Yokosuka, Japan from 1984 through 1987, contributed to increased
construction costs at the facility, and hindered efforts to insure the
efficient use of funds appropriated for military construction associated
with United States security commitments in the Pacific.
(7) The Senate finds that the United States Department of Justice has
formally requested full compensation from the one hundred and forty firms
involved in bid-rigging activities at the United States naval facility in
Yokosuka, Japan.
(b) Therefore, it is the sense of the Senate:
(1) The Senate commends the United States Department of Defense and
the United States Department of Justice for their efforts to eliminate
bid-rigging activities at United States military facilities in Japan.
(2) The Senate urges the United States Department of Defense to seek
debarment of all Japanese construction firms involved in bid-rigging
activities at United States military facilities in Japan.
(3) The Senate urges the United States Department of Justice and the
United States Department of State to work with the Japanese Government to
insure that the United States Government receives full compensation for
overpayments for construction services and goods at Yokosuka naval base
in Japan that occurred as a result of anticompetitive bidding practices
that have been formally documented by the Government of Japan.
