  Mr. LATTA. 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 Act.
  Requesting Member: Congressman Robert E. Latta
  Bill Number: H.R. 2996, Fiscal Year 2010 Interior, Environment, and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act
  Account: EPA; STAG Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Project
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Village of Tiro, Ohio
  Address of Requesting Entity: P.O. Box 31, Tiro, OH 44887
  Description of Request: $500,000 for the Village of Tiro Water 
Distribution System. This project consists of purchasing treated water 
from the City of Shelby and transporting it to Tiro via 32,500 ft. of 
water main. 10,700 ft. of water main will be constructed in the Village 
for distribution of water. A booster pumping station, storage tower, 
and fire hydrants will be included. The Village of Tiro currently has 
no municipal water system. Water is collected or hauled into shallow 
wells or cisterns. The Village has tried for several years to secure a 
source of water and funding. The current project is the closest this 
village has come for a safe water supply. I certify that neither I nor 
my spouse has any financial interest in this project.
