  Mr. PATRICK J. MURPHY of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
honor Bucks County resident Todd Stone, the founder of the Gallows Run 
Watershed Association.
  Mr. Stone is an example of how an ordinary citizen can make a change 
to benefit our entire community. Mr. Stone's involvement with this 
issue resulted in the establishment of a clean water advocacy group 
committed to improving our water quality and environment. And that is 
something we can all be proud of.
  The Gallows Hill Watershed Association was founded by Todd Stone in 
2002 and consists of representatives from a wide variety of private and 
government groups, all with the common goal of improving our 
environment. This group's educational outreach, scientific research and 
active participation in the legal system effecting local land use have 
brought key people together with a shared objective.
  Madam Speaker, Todd Stone is an extraordinary example of community 
advocacy. His passion for improving our environment and his tireless 
community involvement is undeniable. His work is inspiring and I am 
honored to recognize him for his many accomplishments.
