(a)shall have substantial experience and demonstrated competence in forest and natural resources management. Any nomination of an individual to be the Chief of the Forest Service submitted to the Senate for confirmation, and referred to a committee, shall be referred jointly to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry of the Senate and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate. Paragraph
(1)is enacted— as an exercise of the rulemaking power of the Senate, and as such is deemed a part of the rules of the Senate and supersedes other rules only to the extent that they are inconsistent with such rules; and with full recognition of the constitutional right of the Senate to change the rules at any time, in the same manner, and to the same extent as in the case of any other rule of the Senate. Notwithstanding any service by an individual serving in the position of Chief of the Forest Service on the date of enactment of this section, the President shall submit to the Senate a nomination for an individual to be the Chief of the Forest Service not later than 30 days after that date of enactment. .
