  Mr. BROWN of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, in accordance with the 
Republican adopted standards on earmarks, I submit the below detailed 
explanation of the Fuel Oil Barge.
  Bill Number: H.R. 3326, Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
2010
  Account: Navy RDT&E
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: GenPhar, Inc.

  Description of Project: The need for an effective vaccine to protect 
against exposure to dangerous virus outbreaks of Dengue fever is 
critical to the safety of U.S. Armed Forces personnel deployed in 
combat theaters throughout the world. Dengue epidemics have increased 
dramatically in recent years, and cover nearly the entire tropical and 
subtropical regions of the world, including South East Asia, Africa, 
the entire Caribbean, and South, Central and parts of North America, 
putting two thirds of the world population at risk. Dengue epidemics 
not only have devastating effects in regions that hold U.S. interests, 
they also threaten the well-being of U.S. military personnel operating 
in these regions.
