I have a quick final statement.

It's roughly $150,000 a vessel to clean up. It seems to me that the legislation doesn't account for the need to clean up a lot of these vessels, and I don't think the abandoned boats program has sufficient funds to tackle what seems to be literally thousands of these vessels across the country. I think that's something that committees should be mindful of as we review the legislation.
