On the recordSeptember 3, 1996
We understand that the subcommittee is working under considerable budget pressures. But given the importance of this project to our respective States, we would ask that you make a concerted effort in conference to provide funding to keep this office moving forward. We are seeking an appropriation of $975,000 to cover the LISO's operating expenses and to expand its efforts to provide grants to State and local partnerships involved in the cleanup. But at a minimum, we would request that the conferees maintain support for the office at the current level of $650,000. We thank the chairman and the subcommittee's ranking member, Senator Mikulski, for consideration of this matter.
