we do have to -- it should not be that ms. clark and mr. pitcher feel like the adjacent are asurrounding them hazard or something they fear instead of enjoy. in the situation where we have hundreds of thousands of logs laying around, that is a situation in the watershed that is almost like the collapse of the bridge in minneapolis. i would hope that we are cutting through the red tape and doing all we can do to go forward so that we can aggressively get the area cleaned up and restored. thank you, mr. chairman and thanks also to the panel. you and mr. hubbard were excellent on this was a helpful here in. we appreciate you making the trip. >> i was say to the ranking member of the committee that my wife's grandfather is from and was an attorney in eastern arkansas with a law firm that is still there. one of the times i met with him, he remembered very fondly standing at the headwaters of the arkansas river with a river running between his legs. that was in the great state of colorado. that does connect us all. i want to thank my colleagues w

ms. clark's character. i appreciate what she is doing. i appreciate that her home is redesigned for that purpose. that is not weighing in on what we are discussing here, but i want to acknowledge it. again getting back to what is in front of us we don't really have guidelines within the commission's rules and what we see commenting on the specifics solar performance aspect of the adjoining home and i am comfortable hearing that most of the solar capabilities of the home -- at least in the primary solar reflective is not impacted by the addition. the secondary aspects are very difficult to comment on for us and they're exceptional extraordinary to the house itself and do not have at this moment room in the code as we are advised to use it. in an urban environment where we are continuously intensifying. san francisco has not been able to have a solar envelope overlay by which we equitily could use for every home expansion there is, so working with limited circumstances the solar response to this -- with this additions still sensitive and wi

ms. clark. >> thank you for the opportunity. i want to introduce myself -- senator bennett did such a nice job but the waldo canyon fire started in my district on june 20 3, 2012. it was along a popular u.s. forest service hiking trail just a few minutes -- a few miles west of colorado springs. two citizens lost their lives and the 346 families lost their homes, and than 18,000 acres of scorched earth was left behind. the photo over here to my right shows what it looked like. the waldo canyon fire also destroyed huge areas of vegetation and burned the soil so badly that it will no longer absorb water. it has created devastating flash flooding. we hope and pray each time we see a typical summer thunder shower developing over the massive burned area that we will not have a repeat of the ,isastrous flash flooding evacuations, and fear that has ripped through the small town of manna to springs and along our major highway. experts tell us that vegetation will be slow to return to the mountain. milli

we're simply looking for modification and you will letter hear -- ms. clark will talk about the addition and the main priernity is providing home for foster children which we think is great. however if you look at the designs we're asking just to reiterate the plans which will provide our home heat in the winter time. the extension for her current house is quite significant which has been mentioned it's not modest increase. they're planning to build the house from current size of 1.2 -- 1200 square feet and increase by 90% and which to us is a modest increase and like a four story building behind our home and not providing sunlight and in terms of providing more room for foster children the addition on the second floor -- the two bedrooms it currently has will remain two bedrooms but just bigger in size which i don't think is a correct argument, and all we're asking is for modification so we can protect the way the houses were designed and built. thank you. >> any other speakers in support of the dr? okay. project sponsor please. >> can i get the overhead ple

clark we'll have votes. we'll a quick recap that time to come back. we ask members rush back after the vote on the floor. i'll have my statement and then recognized ms. degette. a century ago my grandfather worked in a coal mine. things are different but in the minds are extremely dangerous, deaths brought to comment. act and factories, homes and power plants burning coal is so concerned for the firemen. street lights turned on a new and is this that would take a second weight pressure to change midday. major chains the departmental practices that cleared the skies to reduce emissions by more than 50% even as cool users tripled. you can always do better and i support a broken them investing in clean coal. that is difficult under the presidents budget, which cuts $239 clinical research the national energy laboratory. the administration reminds me one of the editors of "the new york times" opined after a failed attempt that it would be 1 million to 10 million before they could never fly. the right brothers wrote, today we begin instruction. instead, the administration wants to direct billions of subsidies that unproven renewable projects. he can't mak
