                             INFRASTRUCTURE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Meehan) laid before the House the 
following communication from the chair of the Committee on 
Transportation and Infrastructure:

                                       Committee on Transportation


                                           and Infrastructure,

                                     Washington, DC, May 25, 2011.
     Hon. John Boehner,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: Pursuant to section 194 of title 14, 
     United States Code, as Chairman of the Committee on 
     Transportation and Infrastructure, I am required to designate 
     three Members of the United States Coast Guard Academy Board 
     of Visitors. I designate Representative Frank Guinta (New 
     Hampshire), Representative Andy Harris (Maryland), and 
     Representative Rick Larsen (Washington) to serve on the Board 
     of Visitors.
       Since its founding in 1876, the Coast Guard Academy, based 
     in New London, Connecticut, has accomplished its mission of 
     ``educating, training and developing leaders of character who 
     are ethically, intellectually, professionally, and physically 
     prepared to serve their country.'' The Board of Visitors 
     meets annually with staff, faculty and cadets to review the 
     Academy's programs, curricula, and facilities and to assess 
     future needs. The Board of Visitors plays an important 
     supervisory role in ensuring the continued success of the 
     Academy and the tradition of excellence of the U.S. Coast 
     Guard.
       Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
           Sincerely,
                                                     John L. Mica,
     Chairman.
