                         HON. DANIEL E. LUNGREN

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 20, 2009

  Mr. DANIEL E. LUNGREN of California. Madam Speaker, pursuant to the 
Republican Leadership standards on earmarks, I rise today to submit the 
following information regarding earmarks I received as part of the 
Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development, and Related Agencies 
FY10 Appropriations Act.
  The following earmarks were requested by my office and are listed for 
funding in this bill:
  State Route 99 Interchange Improvement Project, CA
  Requesting Member: Daniel E. Lungren
  Bill Number: FY10 Transportation, HUD Appropriations
  Account: FHA--Transportation and Community & System Preservation
  Requesting Agency: City of Galt
  Requesting Agency Address: 495 Industrial Drive, Galt, CA 95632
  Amount: $500,000
  Funding this project will provide for the reconstruction of the 
Central Galt (C Street)/SR 99 Interchange, which is critical to relieve 
congestion, improve regional transportation mobility, and ultimately 
alleviate a deficit in adequate emergency services access.
  This project represents an appropriate use of taxpayer funds by 
elevating the ingress and egress of a major trade corridor to standards 
of safety commensurate with the impacts to the effected community.
  International Drive Extension/Folsom South Canal Bridge, CA
  Requesting Member: Daniel E. Lungren
  Bill Number: FY10 Transportation, HUD Appropriations
  Account: FHA--Surface Transportation Priorities
  Requesting Agency: City of Rancho Cordova
  Requesting Agency Address: 2729 Prospect Park Dr., Rancho Cordova, CA 
95670
  Amount: $500,000
  The International Drive Extension and Folsom South Canal Bridge 
project will construct a new six-lane extension of International Drive 
from Kilgore Road to Sunrise Boulevard. The waterway creates a barrier 
that cuts the City in half from north to south.
  This project represents an appropriate use of taxpayer funds by 
facilitating the crossing of a U.S. Bureau of Reclamation waterway 
which bisects the City of Rancho Cordova, allowing emergency service 
access across this present barrier.
  ADA Infrastructure Improvements
  Requesting Member: Daniel E. Lungren
  Bill Number: FY10 Transportation, HUD Appropriations
  Account: Housing and Urban Development (HUD)--Economic Development 
Initiatives (EDI)
  Requesting Agency: City of Citrus Heights
  Requesting Agency Address: 6237 Fountain Square Drive, Citrus 
Heights, CA 95621
  Amount: $450,000
  Disability access is limited in several identified locations 
throughout the City of Citrus Heights, and the City has been and 
continues to be the subject of lawsuits from advocates in the 
disability rights community. This funding will cover the cost of new 
ADA-compliant infrastructure. Citrus Heights is nearly 100% built-out, 
extinguishing the stream of development fees which might normally 
provide for this infrastructure improvement.
  This project represents an appropriate use of taxpayer funds by 
providing for the elevation of city facilities to meet the requirements 
of ADA compliance.
