“let me put in perspective what we are doing here. The gentleman from Indiana's amendment cuts the civilian labs by 33 percent. My amendment cuts by 15 percent but is consistent with the Department of Energy's cost-cutting measures. Now I do not think Members of Congress would want to get on record against reductions and, perhaps, wastes that already are taking place, and I would like to just simply read some of the labs that would be affected under Mr. Roemer's amendment. Argonne National Laboratory, University of Chicago; Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY; Idaho National Engineering Laboratory; Laurence Berkeley Laboratory at the University of California; Oak Ridge National Laboratory; the Pacific Northwest Laboratory; Ames Laboratory; Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility; Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory; National Renewable Energy Laboratory; Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education; Princeton Plasma Physics Lab; Savannah River Tech Center; Stanford Linear Accelerator Center; Bettis Atomic Power Lab; Energy Technology Engineering Center; Environmental Measurements Lab; Inhalation Toxicology Research Institute; Knolls Atomic Power Lab; Lab of Biomedical and Environmental Sciences; Lab of Radiology and Environmental Health; National Institute for Petroleum and Energy Research; New Brunswick Labs; and Savannah River Ecology Lab.”
