           SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE  :  Senate Rule 28.8


           SUBJECT  :    Correctional Officer Scott Williams Memorial 
          Highway

           SOURCE  :     California Correctional Peace Officers 
          Association


           DIGEST  :    This resolution designates a portion of State 
          Highway Route 1 in Santa Barbara County as the Correctional 
          Officer Scott Williams Memorial Highway.

           ANALYSIS  :    Upon graduating from high school in 1986, 
          Correctional Officer Williams served in the United States 
          Marine Corps, where he received numerous awards for his 
          outstanding service.  Later as a reservist, Officer 
          Williams served in Operation Desert Storm and received the 
          "Marine of the Year" award.  Following his military career, 
          Officer Williams returned home to Lompoc to serve his 
          country as a federal correctional officer at the Federal 
          Bureau of Prisons in Lompoc.  Tragically, on April 3, 1997, 
                                                           CONTINUED





                                                                SCR 28

          2

          Officer Williams was violently murdered by an inmate.  
          Thousands of mourners, including the Attorney General of 
          the United States, attended his interment at Los Alamos 
          Cemetery.

          This resolution designates the portion of State Highway 
          Route 1 between the California Boulevard exit and the Santa 
          Lucia Canyon Road/Floradale Road exit in Lompoc as the 
          "Correctional Officer Scott Williams Memorial Highway."  
          The resolution further requests the Department of 
          Transportation to erect appropriate signs only upon 
          receiving donations from non-state sources sufficient to 
          cover the cost.
