Summary:"The requests this year are a down payment for the future," said Rep. C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger, who represents the communities surrounding Aberdeen Proving Ground and Fort Meade. "We hope that there's more next year." "These are federal facilities that are expanding," said Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown, who chairs Democratic Gov. Martin O'Malley's subcabinet on BRAC. "The federal government ought to want to play a role in ensuring that the infrastructure is in place to protect these activities." "So roads are being built, interchanges being constructed and bridges erected," Brown said. "We're making progress, and we're ready."
