                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. ABERCROMBIE. Mr. Speaker, this afternoon, I was unavoidably 
detained by a Hawaii Congressional delegation meeting with the 
Secretary of Interior, and I consequently was unable to vote on three 
recorded votes. Had I been present, I would have voted as follows: 
Rollcall 120, to pass H.R. 2328, to re-authorize the Clean Lakes 
Program--``yes''; rollcall 121, to pass H.R. 3039, Chesapeake Bay water 
restoration--``yes''; rollcall 122, to pass H.R. 2884, to extend the 
Strategic Petroleum Reserve program--``yes.''
