Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Authorization: Hearing Before the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, June 22, 1993 The committee met, pursuant to notice, at 9:35 a.m. in room Sr-253, Russell Senate Office Building, Hon. John F. Kerry, presiding. Staff members assigned to this hearing: Penny D. Dalton and Lila H. Helms, professional staff members; and John A. Moran, minority staff counsel. Opening Statement Of Senator Kerry Senator Kerry. This hearing of the National Ocean Policy Study will come to order. Good morning to all. We meet today to address Noaa´s budget and to discuss some of the fiscal priorities for 1994. I am very pleased to welcome Dr. Jim Baker, the new Under Secretary for Oceans and Atmosphere, and accompanied by Assistant Secretary Doug Hall and the Noaa Comptroller Mr. Andrew Moxam, we appreciate your being here. In addition, we will have a second panel which is going to examine some of the issues surrounding marine biotechnology. We welcome three witnesses for that panel: Mr. Bennett Helms from South Carolina; Mr. Mark Silva from Sandwich, Ma; and Dr. John Burris who is the Director of the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, Ma; they will talk to us about some of the tangible benefits of legislation that we are going to be introducing. I am particularly pleased to be able to welcome Dr. Burris here, especially in light of the efforts that this committee has made to support the research going on there, as well as the new Marine Resources Center of which I was privileged to attend the opening last June. Needless to say, the work that has been done at the laboratory over the years is exciting and important to all of us. I am not going to make lengthy remarks. There seems to be a repetitious syndrome with respect to the Noaa budget. Each year we meet to discuss the budget, and each year we seem to confront exactly the same set of issues, which is basically a debate structured by the fact that there is too much to do in this area and too few resources being allocated to do it. This is true whether the issue is national efforts to research climate change or the issue to provide radar coverage for weather prediction and the dangers that go with our inability to do that.
