Last year I was pleased to work with Senator Lautenberg and Senator Stevens to provide the startup funds for research and development effort for nonlinear acoustic landmine Detection research, which is being done at Stevens Institute of Technology in New Jersey. This work promises to dramatically improve mine detection, and in so doing prevent serious injury and save lives. I am committed to working with Senator Lautenberg and Chairman Stevens towards the goal of a $3 million increase for the Stevens Institute effort during conference with the House.
