I wish to engage in a little colloquy with you. As you know, the administration proposed $49.5 million for the National Clean Diesel Initiative, which was authorized at $200 million in the Energy Policy Act. We were only able to fund that at $26 million. I am concerned the demand will far exceed the amount the committee was able to provide. For example, Pennsylvania's 13 school districts have filed applications with EPA for funding to retrofit diesel engines, and we are going to have a lot more of this. I would like to yield to my friend from New York (Mr. Kuhl).
