I think that's somewhat disingenuous.

You clearly didn't put the money in for the Vandenberg fitness center, right?

Well, let me just say what the signal was, we had some major problems fitting in the European basing towards the end.

So the commitment is to put them in the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP).

Last year we were unable to fund the consolidated fitness center requested by the Air Force for Vandenberg.

Thanks very much, Madam Chairman, and thank you gentlemen for your service.

Texas doesn't have enough--no, never mind.

I'm shocked at you, Madam Chairman.

You know they're going to California.

No, I think you know, we don't want to waste money.

I understand that, I don't want to belabor it.

Well, can you, give us a progress report on moving out of Seoul and moving south.

But there is agreement on Yongsan, and the price?

The frustration we have is there were moving parts last year too.

As you know, we spent a lot of time last year on these European bases...

We're no further--we're no clearer.

I think the Secretary of Defense has indicated that he believes because of the uncertainties of OIF and OEF that there will be a supplemental.

I find not the most optimum situation.

CENTCOM has prioritized another 44 projects at an estimated cost of $531 million, in urgent and unfunded contingency construction requirements.

So in other words, California's standard, you're not going to abide by that, I recognize it's a goal.

I really appreciate that, Mr. Dubois, this is really serious.

Now two States are the largest in terms of contamination, one is Texas, and one is California.

I believe that the Department of Defense has a responsibility here and that we really have to get cracking and get this stuff cleaned up and out of our water supply.

Good. Good. That's some good news.

And it's getting worse, Mr. Dubois. The contamination is spreading and the levels in many places are now higher, and it's permeating the food chain. And that makes it serious.
