                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 29, 2006

  Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, on February 16th of this year, 
Atlanta Gas Light celebrated 150 years of quality and continued service 
to the people of Georgia. What a privilege it is to take this 
opportunity to thank Atlanta Gas Light for being a leader in innovation 
and economic development.
  Natural gas is a cornerstone of the energy supply for Georgia 
residents and businesses. From cooking food and heating our homes to 
lighting our streets, natural gas has helped make Atlanta the 
commercial leader of the Southeast.
  Atlanta Gas Light has become a community leader as well volunteering 
time and money and giving back to the citizens of Georgia. In addition 
to their own accomplishments, Atlanta Gas Light recognizes other 
community leaders in Georgia with its Shining Light Award. Since 1963, 
recipients of the Shining Light Award have been recognized by gas lamps 
erected throughout the city in their honor. This is just one of the 
many ways Atlanta Gas Light continues to give back to the City of 
Atlanta and the State of Georgia.
  I applaud Atlanta Gas Light on their first 150 years as a business 
and community leader. Without a doubt, their continued leadership will 
help Atlanta grow and remain the center of the Southeast for the 21st 
Century.
