Political Quotes

“I would like to engage the distinguished manager of the bill in a brief colloquy regarding the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP). As he knows, these funds have been and continue to be used for investigating and demonstrating innovative environmental clean-up technologies. He may also know that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Research Laboratory [USACERL] has been a very active component of DOD's efforts in this area. Through USACERL's work, many of these private/public sector technologies are now available for commercialization, stimulating small company creation, economic development, and environmental protection. I would urge that the Committee support continuation of USACERL's excellent work, particularly remediation activities at the Army production plants.”
