EXTENDING AUTHORIZATION OF 

DELAWARE WATER GAP NATIONAL RECREATION AREA CITIZEN ADVISORY COMMISSION 

SPEECH OF

HON. SCOTT GARRETT OF NEW JERSEY

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Monday, September 29, 2008 

Mr. GARRETT. Madam Speaker, I am 

pleased that the House recently considered 

and unanimously consented to the passage of 

H.R. 7017, a bill to reauthorize the Delaware 

Water Gap National Recreation Area 

(DWGNRA) Citizens Advisory Commission 

(CAC) for an additional year. Both Representative CARNEY and I believe that this citizen action group serves as an important liaison between National Park Service Officials and park 

neighbors. 

Communication is the key to addressing and 

resolving citizen concerns, and it is clear that 

residents and park users value the opportunity 

to respond to DWGNRA decisions and propose alternative ideas. I was proud to introduce this bipartisan legislation and I believe it 

will improve the communication process between park officials and the local community. 

The citizens of New Jersey should be confident in the ability of the Federal Government 

to hear and address their suggestions. 

The Delaware Water Gap region has a turbulent history, one marked by improper government interference and Federal invasion of 

the rights of property owners. Realizing this, 

my predecessor, Representative Marge 

Roukama, authored legislation establishing a 

Citizen’s Advisory Commission (CAC) in 1988. 

The CAC was reauthorized for an additional 

decade in 1998 and has served as a forum for 

the public to interact with park officials. 

Due to the combined efforts of various Commission members and park officials, the Delaware Water Gap NRA has increased in popularity and sees millions of visitors each year. 

These visitors enjoy the beauty of the scenery 

and the opportunity to participate in activities 

like hiking, canoeing, and swimming. I am 

confident that the CAC will continue to play a 

valuable role in preserving the splendor of the 

Delaware Water Gap for future generations. 

The ability of local residents to communicate 

with Federal agencies has been one of my 

main focuses and I call upon the Senate to 

follow the House’s example and pass this important legislation.

Army account for the Accelerating Treatment 

for Trauma Wounds project. 

The project goal is to evaluate doxycycline 

gel for its ability to expedite healing of open 

wounds among injured U.S. Army soldiers at 

Walter Reed Army Medical Center when used 

in conjunction with other good wound care 

practices. Orally-taken doxcycline has been 

approved and marketed for decades for treatment of infections caused by susceptible 

microorganisms. When used in conjunction 

with, and not a substitute for, good wound 

care practices including wound cleaning and 

dressing, doxcycline gel has been shown to 

increase the incidence of wound closure and 

reduce the incidence of infection. This product 

has been approved for human testing. 

There is a critical need for effective, lowcost, easy-to-apply treatments to address military trauma/open wounds. U.S. soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with severe 

trauma/open wounds must remain in hospital 

care for 6–12 weeks until the wound is sufficiently healed. The U.S. military community is 

seeking cost-effective and easy to apply treatments that can speed the rate of healing to 1– 

2 weeks.

This project will provide direct support to the 

Fleet Readiness Center Southeast, FRCSE, to 

conduct the demonstration and validation required to introduce new materials, techniques, 

and processes into the repair, maintenance, 

and testing of aircraft composite components. 

The program will evaluate newer modern electrical testing, analysis capability and repair capability, to include stripping, repairing, coatings 

application and electrical testing to insure attainment of both structural and electrical properties of composite components, including 

radomes, radar reflectors and other composite 

structures. 

Many aircraft or aircraft components are 

constructed of a high percentage of composites. Generally, the newer an aircraft is, the 

higher the percentage of composite components it contains. This trend will most likely 

continue. However, composite component 

electrical testing and repair development and 

implementation is far ahead of FRCSE capability and techniques. In order to continue improving the reliability of repairs and lower the 

total cost of ownership, newer technologies 

and expertise have to be transitioned and implemented at FRCSE. In addition, many current composite repair processes are labor intensive and have significant air emissions and 

hazardous material usage.

This project is a state-of-the-art secure system which supports wireless transmission of 

both data and voice for shipboard to shore 

communications when a ship is pierside. The 

WPCS solution has proven to be operationally 

sound, has successfully withstood security 

penetration testing by NIOC and NSA, and 

has received Type Accreditation by the 

DSAWG in conjunction with NETWARCOM. 

Further, the WPCS solution has passed 

HERP, HERP and HERO testing providing acceptable levels of safety for use both pierside 

and shipboard. 

When U.S. Navy ships return to port the primary voice and data communications connection is one or more fiber and/or copper umbilical cables. The susceptibility of this dated infrastructure to the harsh conditions of the 

pierside environment and mishandling by Navy 

and support personnel has rendered this solution unreliable and highly expensive.

DEATHS IN CUSTODY REPORTING 

PROGRAM 

HON. SHEILA JACKSON-LEE OF TEXAS

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Friday, October 3, 2008 

Ms. JACKSON-LEE of Texas. Madam 

Speaker, I want to thank Congressman SCOTT

from Virginia for his critical insight into this 

much needed legislation before us. H.R. 3971, 

the Death in Custody Reporting Program reauthorizes the Bureau of Justice Statistics, BJS, 

program, which is designed to report the 

deaths of prisoners and immigration detainees 

in local and State custody. 

The Death in Custody Reporting Act is a 

critical oversight tool which allows State and 

local corrections officials and advocates to 

monitor in-custody suicides, homicides, drug 

and alcohol overdoses and other critical 

issues. 

Due to the current lack of transparency and 

accountability, the public and advocacy groups 

have to rely on word-of-mouth and media accounts to find out about deaths of immigration 

detainees. According to the ACLU, at least 69 

immigrants have died in custody since 2004. A 

significant number of these deaths occurred in 

Federal detention facilities. 

I am pleased that the Senate amended this 

legislation to ensure that Federal detention 

center authorities also had to report under the 

same circumstances and the State detention 

centers; finally closing the loophole that allowed deaths of immigration detainees in Federal detention facilities to go unreported. 

This program which began in 2000, is supposed to receive death records quarterly from 

each State’s prison and juvenile justice systems and from nearly 18,000 State and local 

law enforcement agencies. The reports include 

the age, gender and race of the deceased, the 

criminal history of the deceased and the circumstances surrounding the death. 

Sadly, according to a report by Human 

Rights Watch the U.S. criminal justice system 

fails to meet many international standards for 

the treatment of crime victims. Among other 

proposed measures in the report, HRW recommended that the United States ratify the 

1979 Convention on the Elimination of all 

Forms of Discrimination against Women and 

the Convention on the Rights of the Child. 

Colleagues, nearly 300,000 men, women, 

and children are detained by U.S. Immigration 

and Customs Enforcement, ICE, each year, 

the majority of whom have no criminal history 

whatsoever. Thousands arrived on our shores 

fleeing persecution and torture, only to be 

locked up like criminals in one of over 400 detention facilities around the country. We must 

not let go of our belief in the innate value of 

human life, or stray from our fundamental values while detaining immigrants or criminal offenders. 

In 1995, after a one-year investigation by 

journalist Mike Masterson into prison conditions and the death rate of persons in custody, 

Ashberry Park Press of New Jersey, ran a series of award winning editorials which listed 

the following abuses resulting in death that 

were occurring in our jails and prisons: Racially motivated violence, overzealous police 

investigations, cover-ups and general law enforcement incompetence. 

This prompted the Death In Custody Act of 

2000 which required reporting of deaths of 

persons in custody. Since then, The Bureau of 

Justice Statistics has compiled a number of 

statistics. My colleague, Congressman BOBBY

SCOTT at one point testified to the most astounding statistic—that since reporting deaths 

have been made mandatory, the latest report 

dated August 2005 shows a 64 percent decline in suicides and 93 percent decline in 

homicides for individuals in custody. He stated 

that these statistics suggest that the oversight 

measures play an important role in ensuring 

safety and security of prisoners in State facilities. 

I agree with his finds and that is why I support H.R. 3971. We need continued oversight 

over the conduct of law enforcement in the arrest and imprisonment of citizens and immigrants. 

The Bureau of Justice Statistics date shows 

that between 2001 and 2005, there were 

15,308 State prisoner deaths, 5,935 local prisoner deaths and 43 juvenile deaths during incarceration. In my district alone, in the last 

decade, 106 deaths have occurred in Harris 

County jail, many because of inability to secure meds or to secure med care after an attack. 

IMMIGRANTS IN JAILS

Survivors of torture, asylum-seekers, families with small children and individuals with serious mental health and medical conditions 

such as HIV/AIDS, are routinely locked up in 

jails or under jail-like conditions. Studies conducted by the bipartisan Commission on International Religious Freedom, New York University’s Bellevue Program, and Physicians for 

Human Rights have demonstrated that, even 

in well-run jails, detention itself poses a serious threat to the psychological health of the 

detainees. 

Without the right to appointed counsel and 

often detained in remote locations, detainees 

are unable to exercise fully what rights they do 

have. While I do not stand here and advocate 

allowing duly processed criminals to be released, or those breaking our immigration law 

to be simply be set loose, there are safer and 

more cost-effective alternatives to detention 

for most immigrants ICE currently detains. 

CONCLUSION

Angela Davis, an activist who went from 

being on the most wanted list to a distinguished and tenured professor in California, 

said that ‘‘Jails and prisons are designed to
