                         Thursday, July 9, 2009

  Mrs. McMORRIS RODGERS. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the House 
Republican standards on earmarks, I am submitting the following 
information regarding earmarks I received as part of H.R. 3082, 
Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act FY2010.
  Requesting Member: Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers
  Bill Number: H.R. 3082
  Account: Air Force
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington
  Address of Requesting Entity: Spokane, WA
  Description of Request: The addition of $4,150,000 for the Refueling 
Vehicle Maintenance Facility will provide more space, closer proximity, 
and indoor maintenance for those who service and repair the refueling 
vehicle fleet in support of the flying mission. Right now, the Fuels 
Management Flight of 100 personnel rely heavily on 15 maintenance 
people who service and repair the refueling vehicle fleet in support of 
the flying mission. These people work in undersized, substandard, 
environmentally deficient facilities separated from each other. This 
new facility is a multi-bay, 5,005 square foot building that will 
accommodate Associate 92d & 141st Air Refueling Wings under Total Force 
Integration (TFI).
