I am requesting funding in the FY20 I 0 Energy and Water Appropriations bill for the Chowan River Basin
Reconnaissance Study. The entity to receive funding for this project is the Army Corps of Engineers at
803 Front Street, Norfolk, Virginia, 23510. It is my understanding that the funding would be used to
investigate federal flood control projects in the Chowan River Basin. In many locations within the basin,
six of the top 10 historical higli water marks have occurred from 1998 forward, including the flood of
record (Hurricane Floyd in 1999), October 2006 cold core upper level low (second highest), and
Hurricane Isabel in 2003 (5th highest). Damages from these storm events have ranged from $1 OM to over
$1 OOM (February 2008 dollars). The reconnaissance study will evaluate the Federal interest in ways to
protect the water resources of this highly productive basin with pal1icular emphasis on restoring wetlands
and forested buffers lost from erosion and flooding, reducing flood damages throughout the basin, and
improving navigation and to determine the Federal interest in conducting a more detailed feasibility
study.
I hereby cel1ify that to the best of my knowledge, this project does not have a direct and foreseeable effect
on the pecuniary interests of my spouse or me.
I also hereby certify that this request will be made publicly available on my official website as required by
Chairman Obey' s new Committee policy that only posted requests will be considered.
Consistent with the Republican Leadership's policy on earmarks, I hereby certify that to the best of my
knowledge this request: (I) is not directed to an entity or program that will be named after a sitting
Member of Congress; (2) is noi intended to be used by an entity to secure funds for other entities unless
the use of funding is consistent with the specified purpose of the earmark; and (3) meets or exceeds all
statutory requirements for matching funds where applicable. I f1ll1her celtify that should this request be
included in the bill, I will place a statement in the CO/lgressio/lol Record describing how the funds will be
spent and justifying the use of federal taxpayer funds.

I am requesting funding in the FY20 I 0 Energy and Water Appropriations bill for the Atlantic Intracoastal
Waterway Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal. The entity to receive funding for this project is the Army
Corps of Engineers at 803 Front Street, Norfolk, Virginia, 235 10. It is my understanding that the funding
would be used to protect the navigation route between the Southern Branch ofthe Elizabeth River and the
VA-NC state line in the North Landing River, a distance of27 miles. The ACC is of critical importance to
transportation, especially to th~ U.S. Navy which transported over 55 million gallons of jet fue l yearly
from the Craney Island to Oceana Naval Air Station in Virginia Beach. Failure to fund the ACC will
result in the Navy being unable to meet the fuel demand of the Oceana Naval Station . The Navy has
stated that trucking this much fuel would not be feasible on a long-term basis. In addition, commercial
and recreation vesse ls travel the ACC in lieu of the Atlantic Ocean to prevent enhy into the dangerous
waters off Cape Hatteras. An average of over 1,000,000 tons of commerce passed though the Great
Bridge Lock yearly. Funds will be used to continue to operate the navigation lock, swing bridge, and
canal.
I hereby cel1ify that to the best ·of my knowledge, this project does not have a direct and foreseeable effect
on the pecuniary interests of my spouse or me.
I also hereby certify that this request will be made publicly available on my official website as required by

statutOlY requirements for matching funds where applicable. I further certify that should this request be
included in the bill, I will place a statement in the Congressional Record describing how the funds w ill be
spent and justifying the use of federal taxpayer funds.

J am requesting funding in the FY20 10 Energy and Water Appropriations bill for the Dismal Swamp &
Dismal Swamp Canal. The entity to receive funding for this project is the Army Corps of Engineers at
803 Front Street, Norfolk, Virginia, 23510. It is my understanding that the funding would be used to
maintain the swamp as fixed by weirs across the drainage ditches to restrict the flow of water out of the
swamp and inward to Lake Drummond in the middle of the Dismal Swamp. The water exiting Lake
Drummond through a feeder di.tch is used to maintain the level of water in the Dismal Swamp Canal, a
pOltion of the Atlant ic Intracoastal Waterway. When Lake Drummond spilled from its banks due to heavy
rains, it inundates the surrounding area. The public perceives that the Corps may have prevented or
minimized the flooding by diverting the floodwaters from Lake Drummond through the navigation locks
at Deep Creek, Virginia, and at South Mills, NOlth Carolina. The feasibility study will address these
concerns as well as oPPoltunities to provide for environmental restoration.
