Thanks for the link, Ranger Granger.  Good to know our Congressional delegation so thoroughly vetted a request for federal funding and that the project was supported so strongly by local residents, local and state government, and a federal Refuge manager.  As for the term "pork" it's good to know the Congressional delegation was able to do their Constitutional duty to allocate taxpayer funds to benefit Soldotna area taxpayers without having to rely on some federal bureaucrat to care about neighborhood needs.  Did you happen to also read that the project in question didn't benefit a property she bought AFTER she acted appropriately on behalf of her constituents?
