A committee hearing has been scheduled for July 22, 2009 at 2:30 PM EDT for the purpose of discussing Senate Bill 715, an act to establish a pilot program to provide for the preservation and rehabilitation of historic lighthouses. Now is the time to contact the members of the Energy Subcommittee to voice your support for the bill, which would establish a funding mechanism to states that have lighthouses, based on the number of lighthouses in the respective state. Click here for the list of Committee members. This bill was cosponsored by Senators Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, and Senators Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins of Maine.
