Good morning. The committee will come to order. A little bit unusual to be here that Convention Center for an energy hearing. But i think it is certainly appropriate given the subject matter that we have today. I certainly didnt mind the short commute over here. But it is a great setting to be at the auto show, surrounded by the latest and the great the Auto Industry has to offer. Im joined this morning with vice senator stav no from the great state of michigan and she as if krjed me that while the washington ought so show is good, the detroit ought so show is great. So that might be the locale for our next field hearing next year on this same subject. I appreciate you standing in or sitting in for senator cantwell, our Ranking Member on the committee. I understand senator mansion will also be with us but he is enjoying the auto show right now and he will be here as soon as he can steal himself away from some of the latest and greatest. I want to thank the Washington Area new Auto Deal
