rules for new sources on methane which is something that we anticipate will come forward here in the next several months. on the voluntary side, this includes work through for example the usda was working with the agricultural industry to get a voluntary agreement to reduce emissions from the sector. in the efficiency context, part of what the president did in the climate action plan was set bold overall goals to reduce energy waste and increase energy efficiency. the department of energy has a cadence of rulemakings to increase standards in buildings, appliances, and otherwise. you can expect that cadence to continue over the next two years. this is a place we are looking to partner with the private sector because the truth is that by providing the right incentives this is a place where there is huge opportunity. i was with the president and a who's who of the fortune 100 yesterday when the white house made the announcement and you have everywhere from ge to hewlett-packard that only -- not only committing to work as contractors for the federal government but also setting their own greenhouse gas reduction plans and a lot of that is driven on the fact that energy efficienc

all of a sudden instead of the usda, they need to understand something else. we are hoping to help you understand the new language. we will take into the affordable care act. that is patient protection and a formal care act, to be proper. sketching out the main parts of the law the ones you need to know about. we will not give you arguments for or against either the provisions or the law in its totality, but we want you to be better informed about what the law actually says. debriefing comes at a timely juncture. it we just concluded the second perelman. -- second enrollment period. we heard oral or commit this week on a case that could radically reshape the scope of the aca, maybe even threaten its continued existence. we are pleased to have as i mentioned, a cosponsor of today's briefing, the kaiser family foundation, a source for tons of good information about the aca and dozens of other health policy topics. and co-muttering with me today is ryan rowland -- diana r owland, and herself, one of the leading policy experts in the country. diane> >> thank you ed, and welcome to all of you. i want to share

rules for new sources on methane, which is something that we anticipate will come forward here in the neck several months. on the voluntary side, this includes work through, for example, usda, who is working with the agricultural industry to get a viable long-term agreement on a mission. in the efficiency context, part of what the president did in the climate action plan was set bold goals in reducing emissions. the department of rulemakings to increase standards in building supply, and otherwise. i think you can expect that cadence to continue over the next two years. this is also place where we are looking to partner with the private sector, because the truth is that by providing the right incentives, this is a place where there is huge opportunity. i was with the president in a who's who of the fortune 100 yesterday, where the president made his federal government been house gas and mission reduction announcement. you have everyone from ge, hewlett-packard, ibm, not only committee but setting their own greenhouse gas emission reduction goals. a lot of that being given by energy efficiency having short payoffs. this is the place where by being smart about how we partner

proposing rules for new sources on methane which is something that we anticipate will come forward here in the next several months. on the voluntary side, this includes work through for example, usdaho's working with the agricultural industry to actually get a viable long-term agreement to reduce emissions from the ag sector. within the efficiency context, part of what the president did in the climate action plan was set very bold overall goals for reducing energy waste increasing energy efficiency. the department of energy has a cadens of rule makings to increase standards in buildings, appliances and otherwise. i think you can expect that cadens to continue over the next two years. but this is also a place where we're looking to partner with the private sector because the truth is by providing the right incentives, this is a place where there's huge opportunity. i was with the president in a sort of who's who of the fortune 100 yesterday when the president made his federal government greenhouse gas reduction announcement and you have everybody from g.e. to hewlett-packard, not only committing to help work as contractors to the federal government but actually setting their own gr

and new funding framework, similar to how the cost for other natural disasters are met. this is a common sense proposal that would help ensure that usda and interior don't have to rob our budgets for fire prevention to fight the nation's most catastrophic fires. this is a smart and balanced budget that enables the department to carry out important missions. i look forward to discussing the issues and many other proposals dure your during your questions. thank you. >> thank you, secretary. we will now go to a round of questions here and i'll direct my first question relating to production on alaska lands. as i mentioned in my opening statements, i'm frustrated. i'm very frustrated with the delays, the denials, the restrictions that we continue to see from the department of interior. when you came before us as a nominee back in march, of 2013, you made a specific commitment to me. you said, and i'm going to quote you here, that we are supporting the desire that we discussed to continue to keep the alaska pipeline full. do you know where we are in terms of the maximum capacity of the trans alaska pipeline versus what we're seeing go thro

new epa waste water discharge permit that will cost 2 to 3 million dollars. i will close with some comments on the federal water infrastructure programs. namely the epa state revolving funds and the usda rural development grant and loan program. we are very appreciative for congressional funding of these initiatives. and realize funding constraints in congress and the nation notwithstanding the curtailment of federal funding, the regulatory burden continues into crease and become more complex. we urge you to emphasize grants in these funding programs. low interest loans don't help the communities facing a severe hardship from federal compliance, leaving the loan funds to be used for compliance with greater availability to afford financing. we are very grateful for the funding assistance. it has allowed many rural and small communities to have access of drinking water and sanitation that would otherwise not have been able to afford without the federal assistance. and we want to be partners in the effort to make the initiative as efficient and as successful as possible. thank you very much, mr. chairman, and i'm eager to answer any questions at the appropriate time. >> thank you very mu

new any numbers out on agricultural moderateties. jane wells has the highlights live from l.a. hi, jane. >> hi ty. corn went positive for a time showing better than expected exports, meaning less corn. the usda more bushels of u.s. corn will be exported than it thought a monthing with ash corn has come back down again. that's twice the boost that analysts expected. domestic production and consumption basically unchanged. a little more corn will go to feed livestock. a little less to make ethanol. overall, the new projected price has been raised a dime at the bottom to between $3.50 and $3.90. no $4 corn this year. lots of beans mean lower prices. cattle prices shot up as production forecasts sfel again. that could start to turn around. now, the good news for consumers, mandy, the dollar is so strong that less u.s. beef will be exported meaning more at home more foreign beef will be imported meaning more beef totally, and that might, might bring down prices. back to you. >> okay. jane wells, thank you very much for that. well, a day after apple's big watch event, ceo tim cook is meeting with shareholders today. the stock today is down by 1.7% as it's currently sitting at $124.91. it's fallen
