I want to thank the gentleman from Ohio for offering this amendment. DMMP's dredged material management plans are plans to manage the sediment that results from dredging activities. It can hold up the navigation of channels for ships and vessels. It can obstruct activity at ports. This is what the rest of the world would call common sense. It ensures that we are not collecting redundant information, we are building upon information that exists, and that we have a limit or goal of 2 years in completing this. This makes sense. I want to thank the gentleman for bringing this amendment forth, which we are prepared to accept. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
