A concurrent RESOLUTION
TO EXPRESS THE GRATITUDE OF THE CITIZENS OF SOUTH CAROLINA FOR THE COMMITTED LABORS OF OUR WATER PROFESSIONALS, WHO SERVE AS GUARDIANS OF OUR WATER, AND TO DECLARE MONDAY, MARCH 6, 2023, AS "WATER PROFESSIONALS DAY" IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Whereas, the term "water professional" is often associated with those individuals who have chosen to work and serve in public water utilities, that is, those responsible for ensuring that potable drinking water is properly managed so that the water is clean, safe, and reliable for public consumption and so that it contributes in a positive manner to public health, economic growth, and community sustainability; and
Whereas, more specifically, water professionals are part of a statewide comprehensive water management team of professionals who work in, and manage, public water systems (drinking water), public wastewater reclamation systems (sewer), and stormwater system operations for hundreds of communities across the State of South Carolina; and
Whereas, a water professional is often the unsung hero who has chosen to serve his or her community by ensuring that a community's access to clean, safe, reliable drinking water goes unimpeded. Such a professional strives to make sure the local, regional, and state watersheds are protected from pollutants and runoff, that the environment is accordingly protected, and that economic growth and public health are supported. Nothing functions without highly skilled, trained, and dedicated staff members working as water professionals in the best interests of their respective communities. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, express the gratitude of the citizens of South Carolina for the committed labors of our water professionals, who serve as guardians of our water, and declare Monday, March 6, 2023, as "Water Professionals Day" in South Carolina.
