On the recordJuly 17, 1995
Except that is limited by the Senator's language in subsection (b). When it comes to the least costly alternative, the Senator does not say ``benefit'' which is, in fact, defined somewhere else. It is limited to nonquantifiable benefit. That is a question which has been raised for the last week, and for the life of me, I do not understand why the word ``benefit" means quantifiable or nonquantifiable for the purposes of the act generally, but when it comes to the least-cost requirement, it is only the nonquantifiable benefits which are going to be an exception. That is the answer to the Senator's question.
