OUR GOVERNOR OF MONTANA, MARC RACICOT, HAS CONCTJRRED 

 WITH THIS ASSESSMENT AND HAS SUGGESTED THAT WE JOINTLY SEEK 

 EVEN MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO "REVERSE BUREAUCRATIC IMPULSE AND 

 SIMPLIFY, NOT COMPLICATE" THE QUEST FOR RESPONSIBLE 

 MANAGEMENT AND PROGRAMS THAT CAN BETTER SATISFY NATIONAL 

 INTERESTS AND LOCAL NEEDS. 



ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE 

 THESE OBSERVATIONS.
