Name: Russell Martin on Apr 21, 2005State:Country: USComments: The National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005, Senate Bill S.786, is an outrageous attempt by Sen. Santorum to line the pockets of a private company in his state by restricting access to what up until now has been, and by rights should be, freely accessible public information. As a professional meteorologist I strongly oppose this proposed legislation! Russell MartinFlag

There comes a time when the polictical boundaries need to stop and focus on providing as much information as possible to protect property and save lives. DO NOT PASS THIS BILL. Thank YouFlag

Name: Joseph Mastandrea on Apr 22, 2005State: NECountry: USComments: Maintain access to NWS products online because we already paid for them with tax dollars. Let the resellers pay for the entire NOAA budget if they want to block public access to weather information.Flag

Name: Robert Tarling on Apr 22, 2005State:Country: UKComments: Sir, I feel that this decision is motivated by $, and greed, and will prove to be a retrograde step. The NWS hasn't been equalled, let alone surpassed by 'commercial' operations. Keep the NWS, and its' data, free to all who need it.Flag

Name: Jeffrey Robinson on Apr 22, 2005State: MDCountry: USComments: I am an avid EMWIN user and weather spotter and do not think that the US Gov't. should GIVE AWAY anything to private weather contractors. The wording should change so that NWS does NOT have to give in to private contractors. FREE should mean just that. FREE. I purchased equipment in my office to receive the EMWIN from the EMWIN coordonator in WALLOPS VA. It is a great benefit and public safety is my number one priority. Thanks you...Flag

We depend on the NWS and so does our military. I would not like to see this in private hands who have their own intentions.Flag

Name: Christopher Dodson on Apr 22, 2005State: KYCountry: USComments: This bill needs to be defeated. We need more funding and support for the National Weather Service. We do not need groups or companies trying to come up against them. The NWS has saved lives and continues to save lives. Do not pass a bill that will weaken the agency.Flag

Name: Harrison Mindlin on Apr 22, 2005State: MACountry: USComments: Do not sacrifice the superior services provided by the NWS for the far less accurate and comprehensive services provided to the public by such companies as Accuweather. You will be doing a huge disservice to the public and perhaps even put the citizens that you represent in jeopardy.Flag

Name: Jack Belich on Apr 22, 2005State: FLCountry: USComments: This bill should be known as the AccuWeather Protection Act. It's disgusting to think that our Congress is even considering reducing the critical role played by the National Weather Service. If you want real competition, let AccuWeather and the other commercial providers provide their services WITHOUT using any of the NWS raw data. If this were to happen, then we'd see some real competition--very unlikely the commercial vendors would want to invest in a data collection network--they'd rather use the "free" NWS data. Kill this bill in committee--it doesn't deserve to see the light of day.Flag
