  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
Kennett Board of Public Works 75th year of service as a municipally 
owned utility to the citizens of Kennett, Missouri. In Missouri's 
Eighth Congressional District we are thankful to have a public power 
utility that provides Electric, Natural Gas, Water, Sewer, Internet and 
Economic Development services to their customers.
  Throughout their 75 years, the Kennett Board of Public Works has made 
it their mission to provide the best possible service at the lowest 
possible rates for their customers in the Bootheel. With the guidance 
of their wise and dedicated board members, along with the management of 
the utility, they have been very successful in accomplishing their 
mission.
  As we celebrate the Kennett Board of Public Works 75th year of 
service as a municipally owned utility to the citizens of Kennett, 
Missouri, it is my pleasure to recognize the organization and their 
efforts before the House of Representatives and thank them for their 
commitment to their community in Missouri's Bootheel.
