  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the Republican 
Leadership standards on earmarks, I am submitting the following 
information regarding earmarks I received as part of H.R. 2996, the 
fiscal year 2010 Interior, Environment and Related Agencies 
Appropriations Bill:

Sea Lion Commission. The Alaska Sea Otter and Stellar Sea Lion 
Commission is an Alaska Native organization that works to ensure 
conservation, co-management, education, and artistic development of sea 
otters and sea lions. It is my understanding that this funding would 
facilitate the development of a co-management plan for sea otters and 
sea lions by local communities in the interest of sustainable 
populations and increasing involvement in subsistence management.

Spectacled Eider, and support the Recovery Team mandated by the 
Endangered Species Act.
