Though this draft is not identical to the final version of the Senate Report, the language is similar, except for the explanation of "materially affect" for Section 16(b). Section 16(b) corresponds to what we now know as 25 U.S.C. 1735(b), but the final version of this section says "affect" rather than "materially affect."
