SCM 1006 Arizona Senate · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

PFC Michael Noline memorial highway

This bill (SCM 1006) proposes renaming a specific segment of U.S. Route 70 in Arizona to honor PFC Michael A. Noline. It directs the State Board on Geographic and Historic Names to rename the stretch from State Route 77 to milepost 300 near Bylas, Arizona, as the "PFC Michael A. Noline Memorial Highway." The bill commemorates Noline, a San Carlos Apache Tribe member and Globe High School graduate who died in Operation Desert Storm in 1991 as the first Arizonan killed in that conflict. As a commemorative resolution, it does not create new laws or affect policy, only designating a highway name.
