This is an important account to beef up. Remember, we are under the sequester caps, and then we are $4 million under the budget request even with this amendment. Now, the Secretary's Office is the best place to go for an offset. The Secretary's account is $452 million above fiscal year 2015 levels and $389 million above the budget request. {time} 1545 I would put to you that it would be a better investment for our communities back home to allow them this little seed money, this little matching money, to redevelop properties, rather than fund the bureaucracy at the EPA. I urge approval of the Castor amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time.
