Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the work\nbeing done in my home of Bucks County, Pennsylvania by the dedicated\nvolunteers of Bucks Beautiful.\n  Founded in 1990 by Robert and Joyce Byers and Carol McCaughan with\nthe goal of beautifying Bucks County, this community organization has\ndedicated itself to preserving and improving upon the existing natural\nbeauty of my home in southeastern Pennsylvania.\n  Over the last 22 years, Bucks Beautiful has expanded its mission,\noffering beautification grant programs, partnering with a local college\nto offer academic scholarships, and offering scenic tours of Bucks\nCounty and other nearby locales.\n  Most recently, Bucks Beautiful has completed its ``Bulbs For Bucks''\nProgram, planting hundreds of thousands of daffodils at strategic\nlocations across the county.\n  The inspiration of Chuck Gale, owner of Gale Nurseries and a Bucks\nBeautiful board member, this collaboration of local nursery owners and\nlandscape architects will result in an impressive visual display come\nspring along major Bucks County thoroughfares.\n  Chuck Gale and his team complete the first phase of this undertaking\nin fall of 2010, planting 30,000 Daffodil Bulbs were planted along the\nRt. 611 Bypass.\n  Last fall, 300,000 Daffodil Bulbs were planted along the Delaware\nCanal at key locations from Bristol to Riegelsville, Bucks County.\n  Finally, this November marked the completion of Phase 3 with 170,000\ndaffodil bulbs being planted along the new Route 202 Parkway and Route\n202 Bypass.\n  The completion of this project, which included the acquisition from\nHolland the only bulb-planting machine in the United States, has laid\nthe foundation for an expanded tourism base for Bucks County. Bucks\nBeautiful hopes to begin an annual bulb festival adding to the list of\nfairs and festivals that bring countless tourists from around the\ncountry to our community each year.\n  The hard work and dedication of Chuck Gale, the Central Bucks County\nChamber of Commerce and the volunteers of Bucks Beautiful has made this\nprogram an outstanding success, and I wish them the best of luck going\nforward.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2012-12-31-pt1-PgE2023-3"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 34.8216260317713, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
