Let us bring the Small Business Subcommit teei on Regulation, Business Opportunities, and Technology to or er. It is a pleasure to convene here in Newport today at the request of my good friend, Mike Kopetski, in order to learn first hand the economic impact of the Whiting Allocation Decision on the Oregon coast and on this community specifically. We made a special effort to be here today, because the Small Business Subcommittee on Regulation and Business Opportunities wants to look closely at the impact this decision has had on a number of areas such as small business lending and catch alloca tion decisions where the Federal Government is directly involved.
