    CURTIS FOLTZ' RETIREMENT AS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF GEORGIA PORTS 
                               AUTHORITY

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Curtis 
Foltz and his retirement as executive director from the Georgia Ports 
Authority.
  Over the past 5 years, Mr. Foltz has done an exceptional job 
overseeing all Georgia Ports Authority activity, including the 
expansion and maintenance of the deepwater ports of Savannah and 
Brunswick.
  Since his promotion to executive director in 2010, Mr. Foltz led 
Georgia Ports Authority to achieve record cargo growth, modernize its 
terminals, increase efficiency, improve safety, and promote 
environmental stewardship.
  I am honored and grateful for Mr. Foltz' leadership as Georgia Ports 
Authority's executive director and wish him all the best in his future 
endeavors.
  I would also like to wish the incoming executive director, Griff 
Lynch, and the Georgia Ports Authority continued growth and success for 
years to come.
