                             HON. ROY BLUNT

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, July 10, 2009

  Mr. BLUNT. 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. 2996, The Department of Interior 
Appropriations Act for FY2010.
  Requesting Member: Congressman Roy Blunt
  Priority Name: McDonald County for Wastewater Infrastructure--Public 
Water Supply District #1 of McDonald County
  Authorized Amount: $244,000
  Account: STAG Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Project
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: McDonald County, Missouri
  Address of Requesting Entity: PO Box 345, Pineville, MO 64856
  Description of Request: This funding will be used by Public Water 
Supply District (PWSD) #1 toward the second phase of a wastewater 
expansion project to augment recently constructed infrastructure 
financed from PWSD funds. The proposed project will supply the Village 
of Jane with needed sewer service. The Village of Jane is a small but 
rapidly growing community in south-central McDonald County on the bank 
of Little Sugar Creek, a 303d impaired waterway.
  The use of taxpayer funds is justified because in addition to the 
benefits of improved water quality within the Little Sugar Creek 
watershed and encouraging additional commercial and residential 
development in the area, the proposed project will also provide needed 
wastewater service to properties recently purchased by the McDonald 
County R-1 School District and Crowder College to house a second high 
school campus and a community college campus respectively.
