                        Thursday, July 13, 2000

  Ms. WOOLSEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and celebrate the 
25th Anniversary of Panamax of San Rafael. Panamax, the country's 
foremost designer and manufacturer of power protection equipment, is 
deserving of special Congressional recognition. What started out as a 
one room, single employee operation has become a multi-million dollar 
enterprise that provides employment opportunities to over one hundred 
individuals. Panamax has been a strong supporter of small business and 
has a record of hiring employees from the 6th Congressional District.
  Panamax has earned a reputation for innovation and service to 
producers and users of a wide variety of high-tech equipment. The 
company has developed an important niche in the area of devices that 
provide protection from power surges and spikes. It also provides a 
complete guarantee on every unit produced.
  Panamax has strongly supported international trade and has 
substantially expanded its trade with Canada, Latin America and the 
Pacific Rim countries. It continues to be an innovator and leader in 
the power protection field in the United States.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my great pleasure to pay tribute to congratulate 
Panamax as they mark two decades of service. I am very proud to be 
representing such a fine company in Congress. I extend my best wishes 
to Henry Moody, and the Panamax family, for continued success in the 
years to come.
