I know there has been some talk about possibilities of sediment, and when they start their remediation program, it will involve cleaning up those toxic polluted areas. The point I am making is exactly that, that there are some areas that do not have the capability of cleaning those soils, and I do have in my impoverished district companies that do, in fact, take soil and clean that soil and make it acceptable under EPA law. Mr. Chairman, we would certainly want to have our companies on notice so if there is any RFP that have an opportunity to bid. That is why I made the mention, and I want to commend the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Gilchrest) because I know he is probably the biggest fighter in the House for conservation purposes.

Editor's note · Context
