  Account: Construction
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Oklahoma Water Resources Board
  Address of Requesting Entity: 3800 North Classen Boulevard, Oklahoma 
City, OK 73118
  Description of Request: I have received $800,000 for the Red River 
Basin Chloride Control project. This improvement project is designed to 
control natural chloride brine emissions at three major source areas to 
improve water quality for municipal, industrial, and agricultural use. 
Improvements include construction of low flow dams, pump stations, and 
diversion pipelines to a brine reservoir. The state of Oklahoma 
expressed a renewed interest in the Area VI element of the project and 
supports the Area VI reevaluation efforts underway. Area VI is located 
on the Elm Fork of the North Fork of the Red River in Greer County, 
Oklahoma.

  Bill Number: H.R. 3183
  Account: EERE
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Oklahoma State University
  Address of Requesting Entity: 101 Whitehurst, Stillwater, Oklahoma, 
USA
  Description of Request: I have received $250,000 for the Consolidate 
Alternative Fuels Research project. The funding would support a 
feasibility study of a proposed project on the Oklahoma State 
University Stillwater campus to create a unique facility that provides 
both a regional/national research and testing center for alternative 
fuels and a training facility for transit and local government 
transportation. The facility would provide accommodations for a 
distinct teaching venue that OSU staff will use to instruct urban and 
rural transit agencies, county and state highway offices, and Native 
American tribal staffs in the latest technological advances in 
alternative and conventional fuel/vehicle operations. In addition, this 
facility will provide maintenance procedure guidance and transit anti-
terrorist training.
