we have the federal agency coronation team, the public safety team that includes law enforcement and ire, and emergency medical planning, and the transportation team as well as freight transportation agencies to develop a plan to move people around. part of the city that is obviously very beautiful but constricted with options for transportation. this has been a major effort to that was spearheaded. we have specific partners at the court venues, parks and recreation and the waterfront. this is a place where they can talk about the collective concerns and the approaches to challenges that they are all facing. and the water task force, the u.s. coast guard has been a partner in coordination among the different harbor safety communities, and the law enforcement agencies. we had a number of different stakeholders. we have the permit process that would allow for these events to be managed well. the other side of the organization talks about the initiatives with the authority and the america's cup organizing committee. the america's cup organizing committee is another party for the agreemen

we are engaged with over 20 feet 20 state and federal agencies. -- federal and state negotiations. the memo that i just distributed has a detailed list of the specific federal and state authorizations that were called for. those include securing permits for the event water space and air space, as well as the onshore spectator areas we went through in the prior slight, as well as addressing issues related to the vent stack and teams that coming from elsewhere, immigrations, customs issues, taxes coming use of foreign vessels in u.s. waters. a wide range of things that we have had great support from the city family with expertise in these areas and great support from the federal agencies and state agencies. this is a work in progress, but we feel very excited about being able to deliver any event that can do what it needs to do to bring as many people in teams here as possible. -- and teams here as possible. this is upcoming milestones. as a look at this this morning i realize we were missing the state and federal milestones. i do not want the omission of those wanted to seem like th

section 939a does record each federal agency to review its regulations that refer to and require the use of credit ratings, and each agency must then modify its regulations to remove any reference to our requirement for reliance on credit ratings and substitute alternative standards of credit worthiness. section 939a also requires each agency to trends matter report to congress and the occ will be 70 that report today. occ regulations affected by this provision includes the interagency risk based capital regulations and also sec specific regulations pertaining to national bank investment securities activities, securities offerings and international banking activities. the banking agencies risk based capital standards use credit rating agency to determine appropriate capital requirements and design risk weights to securitizations and exposures to qualifying securities firms their credit ratings are also used to sign risk add-ons under the agency's market risk rule and to determine the eligibility of certain things and collateral for credit risk mitigation purposes. section 939a could a

section 526 i believe is a commonsense provision that stops federal agencies from wasting taxpayers' dollars on new alternative fuels that are drearier and more polluting than the fuels we use today. the section simply bans agencies from entering into contracts who purchase alternative and unconventional fuels that emit more carbon pollution than conventional fuels on a life cycle basis. i think that is just a rational, commonsense requirement. the effect of this provision that's been in place is a spurred development of advanced biofuels. these fuels are being successfully tested and proven today on u.s. navy planes at supersonic speeds. and i believe it is a testament to american ingenuity. i think the path that the gentleman wants to pursue is the wrong one and it's unsustainable in the longer term and it will not lead us to energy security and, therefore, i am opposed to his amendment and would reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman reserves. for what purpose does the gentleman from new jersey rise? mr. frelinghuysen: mr. speaker, i move to strike the last word.

it's all because this department has chosen to work with the federal agency which is well known and well feared around here for deporting people and breaking up families. immigrant groups say there's a chill on the streets of san jose this summer and it's not about the weather. it's because many undocumented workers are now more afraid than ever to call police to report crimes or be witnesses. [ speaking spanish ] >> to be honest with you i really don't trust the police right now. what i'm trying to do is not go outside too much or drive outside just because of this deep fear that i have. >> reporter: it's all because of san jose pd's recent decision to take part in the department of homeland security's operation community shield, which recently brought two federal i.c.e. immigration agents into the department to work as investigators [ indiscernible ] >> when police asked immigration agents, word spread like wildfire in the community that any contact with the police could lead to deportation for themselves or their family members. >> reporter: immigrant groups held a news conference cal

but i think that some of the suggestions in terms of allowing some upgrade in technology by federal agencies go a long way toward making it true. >> i guess that's the whole crux of the hearing. how do we, instead of being the big hammer, how do we work with the agencies? how do we move them into commercial use when that's a very incredible opportunity and option, he is except if it's natural security? that's really why we're having the hearing. the great thing, i say numerous i'm about this subcommittee is this is where jobs are created. if we have a spectrum crunch, we lose this opportunity to really take advantage of -- at a time when this country really needs to be creating jobs. i've always focused on, in my dallas of looking at the f.c.c. , it who's managing the whole thing. when you've got satellite and microwave bits and pieces, i don't think there's one entity looking at how this all merges together, and then you get stuff like this. i think a process equals policy, and i think we have, because of the way we're organized, questionable process because of being stove piped in sectors

[ male announcer ] because enbrel suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. get back to the things that matter most. good job girls. ask your rheumatologist if

the federal agencies ought to work together in a cooperative partnership with the states. that was the vision of c.w.a. and that's the goal of 2018, the clean water cooperative federalism act of 2011. i think we would all prefer not to have to craft this kind of legislation. certainly it would be preferable that agencies work with each other, states, and confines of their statutory authority t would have been better if they followed the rules and did not try to change the law through guidance and m.o.u.'s. when they do so, when they have used did -- abuse their powers, congress serves as a responsibility to check on this them. i reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman from west virginia reserves. the gentleman from ohio is recognized. mr. gibbs: i wish to yield the balance of my time to as much time as he needs to consume, the gentleman from florida, mr. mica. the chair: the gentleman from florida mica for as much time as he wishes to consume. mr. mica: thank you, mr. gibbs. mr. speaker, and also the ranking member of our full committee, mr. rahall. i want

three areas, first my written statement describes the examinations by the occ and the other federal banking agencies of defects and foreclosure process he's at the 14 largest federally regulated mortgage servicers. although these examinations found that the loans in the sample examined were seriously delinquent. the exams also found serious deficiencies, different degrees at each of the servicers in the areas of foreclosure governance, foreclosure document preparation, and the oversight of third-party service providers. these decisions constitute unsafe and unsound banking practices. to address them, the occ and other federal banking agencies issued a cease-and-desist orders. the forclosures a concluded was adequate to expos serious flaws in the bank's foreclosure process. but as a sample, it could not of course the individual are words that might have suffered financial harmid due to the defect. that's why the orders issued by the agencies requires a comprehensive and independent review of the foreclosure actions during a two year look back period. the independent review will seek to identify finan

when you have a project that has lasted decades, where you are working with federal agencies, the navy, all the funding that we did not have, developers that we had to make sure were together time and again with us, residents and had the confidence that our city could not only treat them well but also plan for their future, with them, working with them. groups such as the homeless, those on the lower end of our housing affordability. all of that has come together over decades of hard work. right up until last week, that work continued at the highest level in order to make this happen. i need to spend a moment thinking the people who have been before me in this position and other federal positions. they have their history marked in many years of essential contributions to this plan, and to the workings of the island, to the vision that is being presented today. first off, senator feinstein. i want to thank her deeply for her contributions.

we believe the federal agencies that do oversee o.p.a. must be required to consult and coordinate with local governments in environmental protection, oil spill planning, training and implementation of the processes. that's needed, that's one thing we have seen from this spill. we have been working with our local agency and our local landowners. but it seems we're the last one to get the call and to sit down and talk about it. and when everyone leaves town, and it's all over, we're still the local elected officials are there. thank you. >> thank you. >> i appreciate the opportunity to speak with you about the pipeline incident that happened in yellow stone and to update you on the progress to clean up the spill. before i begin, allow me to repeat our sincere apologies to the people of montana. we deeply regret this incident occurred and we are steadfastly committed to not only complete the clean-up, but also to build the learnings from this incident into our future operations. we do not yet know the precise cause and will not likely know u

coming out of this process but also the permits from the federal agencies and around strategies with the partners so that we can have a one-stop shop with things related to how to move people along the waterfront or was going to happen in terms of youth involvement. the important thing is coordination, to understand where the sources of the strategies come from and where these end up with the legal documents that set forth how the event will be brought forward. this is something that is key in bringing the whole picture forward so that when the time comes after this process for the policy-makers to approve of the project, they have to understand what they are proving in a holistic sort of way. on march 31, we submitted the initial drafts, the waste management plan the ambush marketing plan. there is work force development and youth involvement, and then a couple of additional plans i mentioned earlier, as we look at the operations plan where we talk about how we safeguard the park resources that we will be using, and the angle that is focused on their use of the port water fund, and

in doing so, this legislation cripples the budget of key federal agencies charged with protecting american citizens and natural resources. the bill is layden contradictions and regressive reforms. it slashes funding to the environmental protection agency by $1.8 billion, yet restores $55 million in oil and gas subsidies. it dramatically cuts the fish and wildlife fund by 30%, zeros out funding to list new endangered species. it reduces the national oceanic and atmospheric administration budget by 18% lower than the president's 2012 budget, and wholly eliminates funding for noaa's climate service. it cuts land and water conservation fund by 80%, a program that has been critical to my district, the u.s. sirgsirg and everyone's district. -- u.s. virgin islands and everyone's district. it has the funding to the lowest levels in its history and it cuts $9.7 million from the national endowment of the humanities, threatening support for teachers, college communities, libraries and archives for important historic documents and many others as well as preservation projects that enhances local commun

great thoughts and great plans, but this is very much one because it's such a collection of 25 federal agenciesd because it includes a lot of outside of the department of justice agency, the ing and the auditors and the folks that are actually going to generate cases i think makes this one gives it some sustainability because it is up devotee emerging trends like oil and gas, and it also allows us to have some continuity left with operators. it's been probably the biggest benefit that i have seen from a u.s. attorney's office perspective is the information sharing that goes on a lonely are we doing cases in our district, we are also now sharing the lessons, modes of operation, individuals, nationally through the financial fraud coordinator network for the investigation and prosecution and best practices in the crux and maybe, just maybe cut some things off before the merger into a crisis level criminal-justice issue. >> i appreciate that. i've never taken you from someone in your marines and as a prosecutor wanting to just sit around and speaking great faults also in girl blood you do, mr. jone

the head of the federal agency task with investigating the explosion is blasting the company for keeping a critical document secret for weeks. the chronicle reports that the document was a handwritten form from about 1988, leaked about a 1988 leak in a flawed well on the pipeline that exploded in september. the document contradicted pg&e's initial records which showed the pipe was seamless. it it shows the company apparently knew the line had one faulty well, and never did a proper inspection. pg&e reportedly kept the document secret for two weeks. eight people were killed in last fall's explosion, and 38 homes were destroyed. >>> when you think of silicon valley, you think, of course, of technology and the young men and women drawn from all over the world to work in high-tech. that's why it's a little surprising to learn what the fastest growing age group in santa clara county is. according to new census numbers, the over 85 population increased 52.7% over the last ten years. by comparison, the baby boomers only grew about 37%. the data also shows that not surprisingly, the elderly pref
