  Mr. DENHAM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge the 100th 
anniversary of the county Engineers Association of California.
  The County Engineers Association of California was established in 
1914 and is made up of county engineers, public works directors, county 
road commissioners and professional personnel throughout California's 
58 counties.
  The purpose of the association is to advance county engineering and 
management by providing a forum for exchanging ideas and information to 
improve service to the public.

The association has a close relationship with the California State 
Association of Counties and is supportive of advocacy work to develop 
policies that benefit counties and citizens.
  The County Engineers Association of California works on many issues 
toward improving the state of our water. Specific issues include 
wastewater, storm water, flood control infrastructure, in addition to 
matters regarding clean and safe drinking water.
  Through much collaboration, the County Engineers Association of 
California strives to provide, create, and maintain infrastructure that 
aids in the health, safety, and general welfare for California.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing the County Engineers 
Association of California for their 100 years of outstanding 
contributions to the community.
