AI Summary
This resolution recognizes South Carolina's Electric Cooperatives for their critical role in the state's infrastructure and economic development, specifically highlighting their response to Hurricane Helene in 2024. The resolution officially designates February 13, 2025, as Electric Co-Op Day at the State House, acknowledging the cooperatives' remarkable recovery efforts after the hurricane, during which approximately 3,500 line workers restored power to 425,000 members within fourteen days. The document emphasizes the importance of electric cooperatives in delivering safe, reliable, and affordable electricity to nearly two million South Carolinians, particularly in rural areas, and provides an opportunity for cooperative trustees, CEOs, and employees to visit the state Capitol, interact with General Assembly members, and host a legislative luncheon. The resolution expresses gratitude for the cooperatives' contributions to the state's economy and infrastructure, and directs that a copy of the resolution be presented to the Electric Cooperatives of South Carolina.
