In 2004, he was selected by his colleagues to be the chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce—the oldest standing legislative House com- mittee. Congressman Barton was the first Texan since former House Speaker Sam Rayburn to chair this important committee. The Energy & Commerce Committee has arguably the broadest non tax-oriented jurisdiction of any congressional committee, with principal House responsibility over matters relating to commerce, public health and marketplace interests. Congressman Barton cur- rently serves as the ranking Republican of the Committee on En- ergy and Commerce in the 110th Congress. The ‘‘House GOP’s leading expert on energy policy’’ (Wall Street Journal, October 2002), Congressman Barton has led the House charge to pass comprehensive national energy policy legislation. In the past two congresses, he has shared authorship of the two most comprehensive energy policy packages to pass in the House since the 1930s.

  • RCED-93-127BR Species Protection: National Marine Fisheries Service
    United States General Accounting Office Briefing Report to Congressional GAO Requesters June 1993 SPECIES PROTECTION National Marine Fisheries Service Enforcement Efforts United States General Accounting OfYice GAO Washington, D.C. 20648 Resources, Community, and Economic Development Division B-248630 June 21,1993 Congressional Requesters During July 1991 congressional hearings, Gulf of Mexico shrimp fLshermen expressed concern that federal agencies were overly aggressive in enforcing Endangered Species Act (ESA) regulations requiring turtle excluder devices (TED) which, when inserted into a shrimp net, create a hole allowing trapped turtles to escape. In light of the shrimp fshermen’s concerns and a preliminary review of this issue by staff of the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Navigation, House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, you asked us to examine how enforcement practices under ESA compared with the enforcement of other fBheries and marine species protection laws. Specifically, you asked us to provide you with statistical data on the level of federal agencies’ enforcement efforts and the penalties being assessed to enforce four major fisheries and marine species protection laws in the southeastern United States: the ESA, the Lacey Act, the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson Act), and the Marine Mammal Protection Act. These laws either regulate fishing activities or afford protection for selected marine species. On March l&1993, at their request, we briefed Subcommittee staff on the results of our work. This briefing report summarizes the information we presented at that briefing and provides data on National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) enforcement activity in the Southeast Region, which is responsible for the Gulf of Mexico area, for fiscal years 198892.

  • CA$HING in More Than 900 Ex-Government Officials, Including 70 Former Members of Congress, Have Lobbied for the Financial Services Sector in 2009
    CA$HING IN More Than 900 Ex-Government Officials, Including 70 Former Members of Congress, Have Lobbied for the Financial Services Sector in 2009 Since the beginning of 2009, organizations in the financial services sector – including banks, investment firms, insurance companies and real estate companies – have commissioned 940 former federal employees as federal lobbyists, Public Citizen’s analysis of data provided by the Center for Responsive Politics ( www.opensecrets.org ) shows. 1 The finance sector’s arsenal of influence peddlers includes large numbers of lobbyists who previously served as members of Congress or have close connections to the two congressional panels that are considering legislation to regulate the financial services industries: the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs and the House Financial Services Committee. So far in 2009, the industry has employed at least 70 former members of Congress, nearly half of the 150 former members who have reported lobbying in 2009. These include former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.); former Senate Majority Leader and Republican presidential nominee Bob Dole (R-Kansas); former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.); former House Majority Leaders Dick Armey (R-Texas) and Dick Gephardt (D-Mo.); former Appropriations Chairman Bob Livingston (R-La.); and former Ways & Means Chairman Bill Archer (D-Texas). Former Rep.Vin Weber (R-Minn.) boasts the most financial sector clients (11) among former members of Congress. [See Figure I] Among the industry’s “revolving door” lobbyists, 19 former members served on the Senate or House banking committees. These include former Financial Services Committee Chairman Michael G.

  • Council Funds Four Research Projects, Newsletter Grants for Four New Research Projects Have Recently Been Awarded by the On-Site Wastewater Treatment Research Council
    Volume 2, Number 1, Spring 1993 Council Funds Four Research Projects, Newsletter Grants for four new research projects have recently been awarded by the On-Site Wastewater Treatment Research Council. In one study, Anthony Tarquin of the Civil Engineering Department at the University of Texas at El Paso will evaluate on-site systems that can serve a "cluster" of two or more homes. The focus will be to develop low-cost, low-maintenance systems that can be used in Rio Grande Valley"colonias" and other areas. Objectives of the study are to design and install at least three cluster systems in the El Paso area and to develop design recommendations that can be adopted in the region. Types of systems that will be evaluated include conventional septic tanks, reedrock filters, and anaerobic filters. At least one system will utilize an intermittent sand filter that will recycle a portion of the sand filter effluent back to the septic tank to increase nitrogen removal rates. Chemical, microbiological, and pathogenic testing will be performed to assess how well the systems are functioning. The Council also funded a project to develop a method to dewater septage (the solids that build up inside septic tanks) and blend it with wood chips to produce compost. The study will be carried out by Susan Parten and Jim Doersam of Community Environmental Services, Inc., of Austin. In the project, water will be removed from septage using an inexpensive gravity flow system. Wood chips will be used to dewater and filter the septage. The mixture of dewatered septage and wood chips will then be composted for beneficial reuse.
