Mr. Chairman, this is a commonsense amendment that has bipartisan support. Frankly, I think as we learned so much more about how the hydrology of California's water systems develop, we need to take advantage of that knowledge. And this amendment will allow us to do so in a way that makes this so valuable resource that we sometimes take for granted--that is our water supply--to allow us to use it in a way that makes sense and will provide the water needs for all Californians. Mr. Chairman, I urge the support of this amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Carter of Georgia). The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from California (Mr. Costa). The amendment was agreed to. Amendment No. 4 Offered by Mr. Denham The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 4 printed in part C of House Report 115-212.
