  Mr. BRADY of Texas. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the Republican 
Leadersip standards on earmarks, I am submitting the following 
information regarding earmarks I received as part of H.R. 3288--
Transportation, Housing and Urban Development and Related Agencies 
Appropriations Act, 2010.
  Requesting Member: Congressman Kevin Brady, Texas 8th Congressional 
District
  Bill Number: H.R. 3288--Transportation, Housing and Urban Development 
and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2010
  Project: The District Capital Cost of Contracting, Montgomery County, 
TX
  Account: Buses and Bus Facilities, Federal Transit Administration
  Requesting Entity: The Brazos Transit District (The District)
  Address of Requesting Entity: 1759 N. Earl Rudder Freeway, Bryan, 
Texas 77803
  This request helps provides an important transportation service to 
over 700,000 Montgomery County commuters each year through four Park-
and-Ride facilities. It also helps provide regular van service for East 
Texas veterans to VA facilities in the region. Through these services, 
the funding also helps reduce congestion along Interstate 45 and helps 
the region meet its clear air goals.
  The $1,000,000 included in this bill reduces the equipment costs of 
providing these transportation services.
