  Mr. TIAHRT. 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, 2010:
  H.R. 2996 includes $500,000 for a State and Tribal Assistance Grant 
to the City of Rose Hill, Kansas, for improvements to the city drainage 
system. The entity to receive funding for this project is the City of 
Rose Hill, 125 W. Rosewood, PO Box 185, Rose Hill, Kansas 67133.
  This funding will facilitate the installation of a 48-inch drainage 
pipe, which will allow the area to handle up to a 10-year storm event, 
protecting homes in the area.
