I rise in support of the Gilchrest amendment. I hate to see time limited on a discussion of this very important amendment. I am supporting the amendment because I think the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Gilchrest) has made a compelling case in support of his amendment. This is his congressional district. I do not think there is anyone in this Chamber that knows more about this project than the gentleman from Maryland. Mr. Chairman, I would like to hear more from him about the amendment, so I yield to the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Gilchrest) at this time.
