[applause] [applause] [applause] what a treat to be back. Before we kick things off this afternoon, i want to mention a little Public Service announcement here that yesterday we declared a state of emergency which will take place later today at 5 00. We made this call based on the Severe Weather that is headed our way which will require a tremendous degree of coordination on the part of our office of Emergency Management and as always, we thank them for their heroic work. We are particularly concerned about the potential impact the storm may have on the area surrounding the rivers as there may be moderate or even major flooding. Across the state we expect anywhere from one to 4 inches of rain and of the most significant rainfall to occur between early evening and about 2 a. M. Tomorrow morning. We also expect high wind with a potential to cause Power Outages tonight through tomorrow. Alina workers, forest crews and hazard workers are monitoring the situation literally minute by minute

Haaland and deputy interior secretary testified before the Senate Natural resources committee. The senators, most of whom are from western states, asked about increasing Domestic Oil Production in the biden administrations interior Budget Priorities for 2024. The administration is requesting 18. 9 billion from the department as an increase of 2 million from 2023. This morning, the committee will be discussing the president s proposed fiscal year 2024 budget for the department of interior and other items within his purview. Id like to welcome secretary holland, deputy secretary boudreau back to the committee as well as interior budget director, denise flanagan. I wanna thank you all for joining us this morning to set the scene. I think its important to note for contexts that the congress provide the department an additional 48. 1 billion in the last 19 months including 47. 3 billion and targeted investments to the bipartisan infrastructure law and Inflation Reduction Act and 779 million
