   3-20  to operate its high-speed rail facility.  The actual route of the

   3-40              (4)  Section 20.
   3-41        SECTION 10.  This Act takes effect September 1, 1993.
   3-42        SECTION 11.  The importance of this legislation and the
   3-43  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   3-44  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   3-45  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   3-46  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
