I support H.R. 642, a noncontroversial bill, which would reauthorize the Chesapeake Bay Office of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration... H.R. 642 would provide a much-deserved increase in funding for this office. The bill would also authorize some new activities, many of which have been outlined already by the gentleman from Maryland, most notably a local fishery and habitat restoration grant program, which will promote new opportunities for NOAA to contribute throughout the bay. The legislation has received strong bipartisan support from the entire Maryland Congressional delegation.
