years is enough, and again on CRP, it is not only good for water- 

 fowl, a lot of that land is uplands, but there is a tremendous diver- 

 sity of wildlife using those CRP lands. It is absolutely incredible, 

 some of the statistics I have seen. WRP, we say, let's fully fund it 

 and do more with it; it is a great program. 



Mr. Gary Taylor. No question. We concur with the extension of 

 reauthorization of both programs, and as you are aware, there are 

 many more landowners interested in and eligible for WRP than we 

 can enroll now. So without question, both programs are of value 

 and should be reauthorized. 



Ms. Lambert. Did you have a comment? 



Mr. Eno. I would just agree. 



Ms. Lambert. Thank you. 



Mr. Studds. As far as the neotropical songbird, we better end 

 this before somebody classifies them as bearable wildlife, and the 

 whole world of critters will be dividable into bearable, watchable, 

 and shootable, which is what we are getting at here. 



I want to thank you all. I think we all clearly have our assign- 

 ment as we proceed to fine-tune the Act. And we look forward to 

 working with you all in the process. The Subcommittee stands ad- 

 journed. 



[Whereupon, at 12:45 p.m., the Subcommittee was adjourned, 

 and the following was submitted for the record:]
