I compliment the gentleman on raising a very important issue. I also want to point out to the House that this is a complex aspect of transportation law involving Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement issues. It involves a very technical aspect of the particulate standards, the air quality standards, for coarse particulate matter or fine particulate matter, those that are 10 or 2.5. In principle, I think I would be in favor of what the gentleman is trying to accomplish, but the language of the wording gives us some trouble yet. And if the gentleman would bear with us through the bill and into conference, I think we can get this matter worked out in a manner that is acceptable to achieve the objective he is seeking.
