On the recordJuly 27, 2011
I appreciate my friend from Washington reading the section, but he left out the last sentence of that section. I think this is a pertinent part and this is the point that the gentleman from Alaska is making, and it regards safety inspection. I will quote the last sentence: ``This section does not affect the authority of the Coast Guard to regulate the use of waters subject to the jurisdiction of the United States within the Yukon Charlie Preserve.'' I would interpret that as saying the safety part of that is taken care of. But the gentleman from Alaska certainly is right on the part that these are State waters. I appreciate the gentleman for yielding.
