                          EARMARK DECLARATION

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. ZACH WAMP

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, July 9, 2009

  Mr. WAMP. Madam Speaker, as a leader on earmark reform, I am 
committed to protecting taxpayers' money and providing greater 
transparency and a fully accountable process H.R. 3082, Military 
Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations 
Bill for 2010 contains the following funding that I requested:
  Requesting Member: Rep. Zach Wamp
  Bill Number: H.R. 3082
  Account: Army
  Legal Name Requesting Entity: Fort Campbell, Kentucky
  Address: 39 Normandy Avenue, Fort Campbell, Kentucky
  Description of Request: There is inadequate chapel space at Ft. 
Campbell. The current facilities are scattered across the entire 
installation in several substandard World War II buildings that are in 
disrepair. The construction of a chapel complex will provide every Fort 
Campbell soldier, their family members and retirees a quality facility 
in which to worship and practice their religious faith. As overseas 
deployments remain high, an increasing number of soldiers and families 
will rely on the chapel to support their spiritual needs. The local 
Clarksville Chamber of Commerce has strongly advocated for a new chapel 
on Ft. Campbell.
  Distribution of funding:
  Chapel--72 percent
  Antiterrorism/Force Protection Measures--1 percent
  Infrastructure (electric, water)--11 percent
  Supervision, Inspection and Overhead--16 percent
