  Mr. HOLT. Mr. Speaker, on July 11, 2005, I was in my district 
participating in the first meeting of the New Jersey Flood Mitigation 
Task Force. This Task Force is working to help prevent the devastating 
flooding that occurred for a number of my constituents earlier this 
year. Due to the schedule, I missed rollcall votes Nos. 363 and 364. 
Had I been present, I would have voted in the following manner: 
rollcall No. 363 ``aye'' and rollcall No. 364 ``aye.''
