Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And while this project is considerably removed from my district, I share the sentiments that have been expressed here today about the need to
preserve it.
I say it is impossible today and in the future to build any kind of major infrastructure project in our country. And to come here and talk about beginning to dismantle the ones that our forbearers had the
good sense and vision to create is absolute nonsense. And I just hope that you will conduct this hearing with that in mind. Thank you.
