Thank you, Chairman Crawford and Ranking Member Norton, for holding this hearing today on the Department of Transportation's regulatory agenda.
After the Sackett decision, the robust Federal protections for our Nation's waters have been eliminated for more than 50 percent of wetlands and up to 70 percent of streams.
FEMA has reported that a nationwide adoption of modern codes would result in $600 billion in savings from disaster impact by 2060.
It just seems to me, returning to a pre-Sackett system of uniform Federal protections would be better than a patchwork approach.
