                            HON. HERB KLEIN

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 8, 1994

  Mr. KLEIN. Mr. Speaker, I am proud to join the Passaic Valley 
Council, Boy Scouts of America in honoring a citizen who had dedicated 
himself to community service. Commissioner Alan C. Levine is the 
recipient of this organization's Distinguished Citizen Award.
  After attending Paterson Eastside High School and the New York 
Academy, Commissioner Levine later attended Rutgers University where he 
attained his degree in business administration. He showed strong 
leadership throughout his academic career and extracurricular 
activities.
  Currently a resident of Paterson, Mr. Levine serves as a commissioner 
of the Paterson Planning Board and is its representative to the Passaic 
Valley Water Commission. He is also the president of Levine Industries.
  In addition, Mr. Levine is a friend and strong supporter of the 
Paterson Police Explorer Post. Through these efforts, he created the 
Police Explorers which allows local teenagers to work together with the 
Boy Scouts of America and Paterson Police Department.
  Among his many other services, Mr. Levine has served as trustee of 
the North Jersey Developmental Center since 1975, and became chairman 
in 1979. In 1992, Levine was named by Governor Florio as a member of 
the New Jersey Police and Fire Pension Board.
  The Commissioner's other activities have varied. These memberships 
include the American Legion Post No. 77-Paterson; the Italian Circle; 
director of the Boy's Club in Paterson; Rutgers Scarlet ``R'' Club; 
Beta Theta Pi Fraternity, and the Aircraft Owners and Pilot 
Association. He is a P.B.A. Local No. 247 silver and gold card holder 
and member of the Paterson Firefighters Association.
  It is with great pleasure that I praise Commissioner Levine on this 
distinguished occasion.
