Good afternoon. The Subcommittee on En- ergy and Water Development will please come to order. Today's hearing will review the President's fiscal year 2017 budg- et request for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation, which is part of the Department of Interior. This is the subcommittee's second budget hearing this year, and we will have two more budget hearings in the coming weeks. Now, we are going to change our procedure just a little bit, but it will not hurt to have a little more relaxed and informal hearing. We have four votes on the Senate floor that are scheduled to begin now, and I will give my opening remarks, and then will turn to Senator Feinstein for her remarks. Once Senator Feinstein and I have given our opening statements, we will take a brief recess to allow Senators to vote and come back, or if a Senator is here, we will just continue the hearing, alternating in between Senator Feinstein as Chairman of the Committee.
