  San Antonio Named Finalist for Top Homeland Security Research Facility

   Statement Announcing San Antonio as a Finalist for U.S. Department of
        Homeland Security's National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility

    WASHINGTON, July 11 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following is a
statement by John Kerr, Chairman of the Texas Bio & Agro-Defense
Consortium:
    "We are proud that the Department of Homeland Security has selected
Texas Research Park in the city of San Antonio as a finalist for the
National Biological and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF). This distinction
brings our city one step closer to hosting this vital national security
project. San Antonio was among 14 consortia from across the nation to
contend for the NBAF. Our selection into this next phase is a result of San
Antonio's current research resources and scientific infrastructure and a
collaborative effort from area elected leaders, key state officials, and
the overwhelmingly supportive San Antonio/Bexar County community. We will
also continue to inform and share our efforts with the greater San Antonio
community, and build support both in Texas and Washington, D.C., to
showcase the reasons we believe the NBAF would be best served in San
Antonio. Moving forward, we will work closely with the Department of
Homeland Security, and will continue to provide DHS with further detailed
information as they move through their decision-making process."
                            - John Kerr, Chairman
                     Texas Bio & Agro-Defense Consortium
