On the recordJuly 18, 2006
I will be glad to yield to the distinguished Senator from Missouri if I may ask one question that was raised by what the Senator from Oklahoma has just said. He has made the assertion that it would cost $20 million to bring the McFarland up to shape. I ask him, what is the source for that and how does that square with the fact that on March 23 of this year, just a few months ago, the McFarland was fully certified by the Coast Guard and the American Bureau of Shipping, so that it is in good shape and would require no funding to keep it in operation?
