                         Tuesday, July 14, 2009

  Mr. BARTLETT. 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
  Bill Number: H.R. 3082
  Account: MILCON Army
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Fort Detrick
  Address of Requesting Entity: 810 Schreider Street, Fort Detrick, 
Frederick, Maryland 21702-5000
  Description of Request: This request appropriates $7.4 million for 
the ALT Auditorium and Training Center Expansion in Fort Detrick, MD. 
This project is required to meet the directed objectives of Homeland 
Security Council and National Security Council to provide meeting and 
conference space for members of the National Interagency Biodefense 
Campus (NIBC). Currently, the USAG is required to provide space for the 
biodefense conferences. Fort Detrick cannot provide the required 
support to the directed interagency biodefense missions as assessed by 
multiple, independent government organizations as well as increasing 
degradation of already inadequate community support and space for 
educational services. Fort Detrick is unable to provide high demand, 
highly attended, more secure, Interagency Conferences, human capital 
enhancement, as well as expanded community services. The current 
auditorium space has inadequate standoff and force protection standards 
without completion of this project.------
