  Mr. BARTLETT. 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. 3082--Military 
Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, 2010
  Bill Number: H.R. 3082
  Account: MILCON Army
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: Fort Detrick

  Description of Request: This request appropriates $7.4 million for 
the ALT Auditorium and

Training Center Expansion in Fort Detrick, MD. This project is required 
to meet the directed objectives of Homeland Security Council and 
National Security Council to provide meeting and conference space for 
members of the National Interagency Biodefense Campus (NIBC). 
Currently, the USAG is required to provide space for the biodefense 
conferences. Fort Detrick cannot provide the required support to the 
directed interagency biodefense missions as assessed by multiple, 
independent government organizations as well as increasing degradation 
of already inadequate community support and space for educational 
services. Fort Detrick is unable to provide high demand, highly 
attended, more secure, Interagency Conferences, human capital 
enhancement, as well as expanded community services. The current 
auditorium space has inadequate standoff and force protection standards 
without completion of this project.
