September 10, 2009. Thank you Mr. Chairman. First of all, I want to say what a delight it has been to work with Chairwoman Napolitano, who has given all of these bills a fair, balanced and complete hearing.
We have six Water and Power subcommittee bills before us today. They are bi-partisan and well intentioned and seek to stretch scarce water supplies throughout the Southwest. But I do have some serious concerns that need to be addressed in the near future.
