 COMMENDING THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI'S CENTER FOR ECOSYSTEM AND SCIENCE 
                                 POLICY

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend the University 
of Miami for launching its Center for Ecosystem and Science Policy.
  This new center, led by its Director, Professor Mary Doyle, will work 
to ensure that sound environmental decisions are made based on the best 
scientific knowledge and understanding available. It will combine 
expertise in government and the environmental sciences in order to 
positively impact policy creation.
  The Center for Ecosystem and Science Policy emphasizes the University 
of Miami's stance as a first-rate educational institution.
  So I highly commend the President of the University of Miami, Donna 
Shalala, and the Center's Director, Mary Doyle, for taking leadership 
roles in the field of environmental research and policy.
