Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, H.R. 3324, introduced by my friend from California, Representative Huffman, would extend the Forest Service's existing authority to collect and retain marina fees in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. The chairman has outlined the content of the legislation, and I won't repeat that again. It is a good bill and it is essential to the operation and the management of the recreation area. It is a critical tool that needs to be extended. The continuation of this authority has been an ongoing priority for the Forest Service and the surrounding communities. I thank and congratulate Mr. Huffman for his leadership on the issue. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on the bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.
