I am pleased that the Appropriations Committee has provided $1.5 million for the Southern Plains Range Research Station in Woodward, OK. However, it has come to my attention that there is an urgent need for a conference center at the facility to house agricultural conferences and agricultural training programs as well as community activities. Because this center is to be available to the community, the city of Woodward has committed to provide $3,000,000 for the construction of the conference center. The study for this facility is estimated to cost $400,000 to determine if this facility would be a good use of Federal tax dollars. I hope the agency will complete this study within available funds.
