                        Thursday, June 25, 2009

  Mr. PLATTS. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the Republican Leadership 
standards on earmarks, I am submitting the following information 
regarding earmarks I received as part of H.R. 2996, the Department of 
Interior, Environment and Related Agencies Appropriations Act.
  Requesting Member: Congressman Todd Russell Platts (PA-19)
  Bill Number: H.R. 2996--Department of the Interior, Environment and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act
  Account: STAG
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: York City Sewer Authority
  Address of Requesting Entity: 1701 Blackbridge Road, York, PA 17402
  Description of Request/Justification of Federal Funding: The York 
City Sewer Authority is a public, municipal authority providing 
wastewater services for residential, commercial, and industrial users 
in an eight municipality service area. The York City Sewer Authority 
would use this funding to construct a new headworks facility, which 
includes the replacement of the building's heating and ventilation 
system and replacement of the activated carbon bed in the building's 
odor control system. This is a good use of taxpayer funds because the 
combined improvements provide the most cost effective solution for 
updating infrastructure for the authority's residents and businesses.
