Bill > SRes137

This resolution commends Volkert, Inc., an engineering firm founded in 1925, for its 100-year history of significant contributions to Alabama and the United States. The resolution highlights Volkert's many notable achievements, including developing the Mobile Bay Causeway, participating in the Mississippi River and Tributaries Project, supporting World War II efforts by expanding Alabama State Docks, designing critical infrastructure like the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway and Interstate highways, and contributing to disaster recovery efforts such as restoring Alabama's Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina. The resolution specifically recognizes Volkert's transformation into a 100% employee-owned company, its induction into the Alabama Engineering Hall of Fame, and its current status as a major engineering firm with over 1,500 employee owners across 60 offices in 25 states. The Senate formally commends the company for its century of service, acknowledges its contributions to engineering and economic development, and requests that an official copy of the resolution be sent to the company's Chief Executive Officer Thomas Hand and President Leon Barkan.
