Mr. Speaker, H.R. 4389, introduced by our colleague, the gentleman from California (Mr. Issa), authorizes the construction of a groundwater recharge and pumping project in the lower Santa Margarita River Basin in Southern California. If constructed, the project could provide much-needed water to the local water utility district and to the Camp Pendleton Marine Base for its military needs. Supporters believe this project, in conjunction with ongoing water conservation measures, will augment the local water district's water supply, will relieve additional demands on the future for costly and limited imported water supplies, and sets aside and preserves valuable environmental habitats. This project is an excellent example of a local agency working to secure safe and dependable water supplies for future generations, and I urge the adoption of the bill.
