  Mr. McHUGH. 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. 3170--Financial Services and 
General Government Appropriations Act of 2010.
  Requesting Member: Congressman John McHugh
  Bill Number: H.R. 3170
  Account: Salaries and Expenses
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: New York College of Environmental 
Science and Forestry
  Address of Requesting Entity: Bray Hall 224, Syracuse, NY 13210
  Description: The purpose of the project is to fund the New York State 
Forest Community Economic Assistance Program. It would fund dedicated 
research and outreach for forest-products community businesses and 
provide assistance with technical manufacturing and financial 
management issues. It would also serve these communities in overcoming 
the challenges of navigating complex regulatory and public policy 
matters. Forest-based manufacturing, small business and tourism 
generate $8.8 billion annually and employ over 72,000 workers. This 
program would work to maintain and enhance these types of forest 
community economic activities.
