  Mr. BARRETT of South Carolina. 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. 
3326, Department of Defense Appropriations Act FY 2010.
  Name of Requesting Member: J. Gresham Barrett
  Bill Number: H.R. 3326
  Account Number: 0603384BP 33 Chemical and Biological Defense 
Program--Advanced Development
  Name and address of requesting entity: The entity to receive funding 
for this project is Graniteville Specialty Fabrics, located at 511 
Leitner Street, Graniteville, South Carolina 29829.
  Description of earmark including amount and spending plan: I am 
requesting $3.0 million of funding for Chemical and Biological Threat 
Protection Coating. The objective of this program is to develop self-
decontaminating chemical and biological fabric with a comfort profile 
necessary to maintain extended protection during pandemics. This new 
and advanced material can be deployed either as an individual 
protective garment, respiratory mask, or protective shelter. The 
technology will adhere to the U.S. DOD requirements for the Joint 
Chemical Agent Detector (JCAD). This program will ultimately develop 
advanced chemical technology for coating suits, tents and other 
equipment for military and first responder personnel. I certify that 
this project does not have a direct and foreseeable effect on the 
pecuniary interests of my spouse or me.
