Enforcement priorities would result in only moderate reductions in overall removals. Would that make any difference if the president extended the guidance to cdp . Yeah, you know, and modest is so modest is not a very precise word, i think its not hard to describe a scenario where you could see removals go down by 10 or 15 or maybe 20 , or some of the scenarios that we described. But, certainly you know, cdp has as we described in our last report, theres been a sea change in how cdp does enforcement, just over the last less than 10 years, from mostly voluntary returns to overwhelmingly formal removals. So if what youre talking about specifically is reducing formal removals.

That would be a management function. We have provided recommendations on what they should include. Have they published that to your satisfaction . Yes, sir. Again, we have some noncompliance at significant levels. Thate see you testified the department of defense or at least the air force you are speaking for ai
As an warmin but we have to tak a balanced virgin is fighting to protect the good jobs that we have especially in this state. With the solutions that we need to make sure that we leave this world in a better place for my nieces and nephews, for the children i hope to have someday and i think that balanced approach is looked at and fighting in clean coal technology. Kentucky has gone without the funding that we need to make such technology affordable. We cannot go any longer without a senator that does not have the backbone to stand up and fight for our miners and jobs especially isyou think Technology Working and is viable and there is a demonstration of that in the United States or the world you can see in west virginia. Ment isearch and develop tremendous. I will be that senator and i am proud to have the United Mine Workers supporting that.
