Earmark Request
I am requesting funding in the FY10 Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies
bill for the Olive Crest program for Independent Living Skills (ILS) for At-risk Youth.
The entity to receive funding for this project is Olive Crest, 2130 E. 4th Street, Suite200,
Santa Ana, California 92705-3818.
I hereby certify that this request will be made publicly available on my Official Website
as required by Chairman Obey's new Committee policy that only posted requests will be
considered. Additionally, I certify that this project does not have a direct and foreseeable
effect on the pecuniary interests of my spouse or me.
Consistent with the Republican Leadership's policy on earmarks, I hereby certify that to
the best of my knowledge this request: (1) is not directed to an entity or program that will
be named after a sitting Member of Congress; (2) is not intended to be used by an entity
to secure funds for other entities unless the use of funding is consistent with the specified
purpose of the earmark; and (3) meets or exceeds all statutory requirements for matching
funds where applicable. I further certify that should this request be included in the bill, I .
will place a statement in the Congressional Record describing how the funds will be
spent and justifying the use of federal taxpayer funds.
Sincerely,
~~~
MARY BONO MACK
Member of Congress
