                     TRIBUTE TO JANAN EVANS-WILENT

  Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize Ms. Janan Evans-
Wilent, a Knauss Sea Grant fellow on the U.S. Senate Committee on 
Commerce, Science, and Transportation, for all of the hard work she has 
done for me, my staff, and other members of the committee over the past 
year.
  Ms. Evans-Wilent has leveraged her scientific expertise to inform 
public policy, having worked on several pieces of legislation that have 
passed the Senate and several others being considered by the Committee 
on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. Her contributions have helped 
ensure the proper management of our natural resources and the continued 
protection and prosperity of our Nation. Her contributions will help 
improve drought monitoring for farmers and improved coastal management 
across the Nation.
  I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to Ms. 
Evans-Wilent for all of the fine work she has done. I wish her 
continued success in her new career at the Federal Emergency Management 
Agency in the years to come.

                          ____________________
