                          HON. GARY A. CONDIT

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 9, 1995
  Mr. CONDIT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate 
Mr. Greg Steel on the completion of 21 years of dedicated service to 
the Stanislaus Area Association of Governments, the last 5 of which he 
spent as executive director.
  Among his many accomplishments, Greg was most instrumental in 
preparing the air quality maintenance plan which was adopted by the 
local governments and the California Resources Board, and approved by 
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Greg also prepared the 
nonattainment plan for Stanislaus County, of which the applicable 
portions were adopted by the county and the nine surrounding cities 
which make up the Association. This plan included a commitment from 
each of the jurisdictions to implement control measures, for the 
purposes of improving air quality.
  Mr. Speaker, on July 28, 1995, the Stanislaus Area Association of 
Governments will formally recognize Greg Steel for his many years of 
dedicated service.
  On behalf of the 18th Congressional District of California, I would 
like to extend to Greg my best wishes for continued success and for 
many years of personal happiness.
