          DIGEST:  This resolution proclaims August 8, 2016, to August 12,  
          2016, inclusive, as Concrete Pipe Week.

          ANALYSIS:   This resolution makes the following legislative  
          findings:


          1)Reinforced concrete pipe and precast are of vital importance  
            to sustainable communities and to the health, safety, and  
            well-being of the people of California.


          2)Reinforced concrete pipe and precast products and services  
            could not be provided without the dedicated efforts of the  
            concrete pipe and precast industry manufacturers,  
            professionals, engineers, managers, and employees who together  
            are responsible for and must design, manufacture, distribute,  
            educate, and supply concrete pipe and precast to public and  
            private owners who in turn build, design, and maintain  
            transportation infrastructure, water supply, water treatment  
            systems, solid waste systems, and other structures and  
            facilities essential to modern society.

                                                                    Page  2





          3)The 11 precast concrete pipe plants in California employ over  
            2,000 employees and provide over 32 million dollars annually  
            in tax revenues to the state, and have helped develop various  
            projects, including the San Francisco 49ers' Levi's Stadium,  
            the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit Drainage, and the Caltrans  
            I-10 Emergency Bridge Replacement.


          4)It is in the public interest for the residents, civic leaders,  
            and children of California to gain knowledge and maintain a  
            progressive interest and understanding of the importance of  
            the reinforced concrete pipe industry to every community  
            throughout California and across the United States.
