                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 14, 2015

  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, I'm proud to take this opportunity to offer 
my sincere congratulations to Gannett Fleming on the 100th Anniversary 
of their company's founding. Their record of accomplishment and 
longevity truly is exceptional and praiseworthy.
  When Farley Gannett partnered with Theodore Seelye to form ``Farley 
Gannett, Consulting Engineer'' in Harrisburg on August 1, 1915, they 
laid the foundation for a company that would become a driving force in 
improving our communities through a commitment to growth, ethics and 
technical excellence.
  Whether designing water supply and flood control dams to improve the 
quality of drinking water and reducing the risk of flooding, building 
highways that strengthen our economy and allow for the safe and 
efficient movement of people and goods, or water and wastewater 
treatment plants that result in cleaner streams, Gannett Fleming's more 
than 2,000 employees maintain the tradition of excellence, innovation 
and responsiveness that began 100 years ago.
  Mr. Speaker, I also commend Gannett Fleming and its employees for 
their work on military and public service projects, including the 
Cancer Institute and Children's Hospital at the University's Medical 
Center in Hershey. Additionally, their ongoing support of community and 
charitable organizations throughout the region is invaluable.
  Congratulations once again to Gannett Fleming and their employees on 
this wonderful milestone. Best wishes for continued success in the 
years to come.
