  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize and applaud 
Blackhawk Equipment for their community leadership and economic 
contribution to Jefferson County.
   Blackhawk is a leader in the air compressor industry and provides 
comprehensive air solutions and services. The company has over 100 
years combined experience in the industry and employs four DOE 
Certified AirMaster + Specialists. Blackhawk is the premier rotary 
screw, oil-free, and centrifugal air compressor distributor in 
Colorado. They also specialize in air dryers, cooling towers, air 
audits, air tools, custom controls, skid packages, portables and rental 
air.
   Recently, Blackhawk expanded in the city of Arvada by moving from a 
10,000 sq. ft. facility into a 26,500 sq. ft. facility to accommodate 
growth. The company hired 5 new employees in 2014 and added $500,000 in 
new capital investment.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Blackhawk Equipment for their 
well-deserved Business Recognition Award.
