                         Thursday, July 9, 2009

  Mr. REHBERG. 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. 3082--Military 
Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, 2010:
  Requesting Member: Rep. Denny Rehberg
  Bill Number: H.R. 3082
  Account: Army NG
  Name and Address: Montana Army National Guard, 1956 Mt Majo Street, 
Fort Harrison, Helena, MT 59636-4789
  Description: An increased number of Periodic Health Assessments has 
led to serious overcrowding of waiting areas, exam rooms, treatment 
facilities and administrative areas at the Fort Harrison Troop Medical 
Facility in Helena, Montana. This overcrowding presents both a risk to 
patient safety and patient privacy as required by HIPAA. The $1.75 
million in funding will be used to expand and renovate the current 
facility to handle the increased patient load and improve both safety 
and patient privacy.
