This bill helps replace the current QuikSCAT satellite which helps track hurricanes. QuikSCAT was launched in 1999 with a 3 year life span and currently is failing and is using its backup systems to function; this doesn't help to accurately track Hurricanes? QuikSCAT means knowing the difference if a hurricane will hit the pan handle of Florida or Texas. At the current rate if the bill is passed we won't see a replacement for another 5 years. It is time to take action, support this Bill!... 16375@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 13 Jun 2007 09:52:04 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_1509.html#16374 This bill needs to be passed. If we don't act now, we may endanger many lives in the future with the inaccuracy of where a hurricane might make landfall. With very few routes for South Florida to evacuate- we would have so many roads filled with people who may not even need to get out of harms way making the roads more congested than need be. Please approve this bill, with hurricanes on the rise the past 3 years, we need accurate projections. We need to start prioritizing where our tax money goes and this I would say would be one of the highest priorities right now.... 16374@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 13 Jun 2007 09:21:46 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_1509.html#16373 All of the gulf states need this bill to pass. This bill helps replace the current QuikSCAT satellite which helps track hurricanes. QuikSCAT was launched in 1999 with a 3 year life span and currently is failing and is using its backup systems to function, we are on borrowed time. If the QuikSCAT fails we loose accuracy of where hurricanes hit. This means knowing the difference if a hurricane will hit the pan handle of Florida or Texas. At the current rate if the bill is passed we won't see a replacement for another 5 years. It is ridiculous that it has taken this long to get a bill like this out there. Don't waste anymore time, please support this bill!... 16373@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 13 Jun 2007 09:04:19 EDT
