I introduced the Empower States Act, allowing States and tribes the ability to regulate hydraulic fracturing on Federal lands.
it is not a rule that is achievable in terms of meeting the CO2 emission requirements with a natural gas equivalency as you have proposed it...
If we are going to do what you just described, this needs significant involvement and input from the agricultural community.
On the 26th of March, the Ninth Circuit upheld the roadless rule exemption for the Tongass.
How are you going to assure us that private property rights are going to be protected?
Let me switch for just a minute to the subject that you were in our State to work on, the CO2 rules.
We need to work on that as a whole, and we need to get the language correct so that you are certain that we are doing the right thing here.
Our farmers are very concerned about this. I want to emphasize that.
the only way that CCS is going to be developed is if it becomes commercially viable, so we have got to get it to that point.
We have a real need for services out there.
Thank you for the work that you do and for your service.
