COMMENDATIONS: To commend and congratulate Amanda Ames on the occasion of her retirement with over twenty years of dedicated public service to the state of Louisiana.
SR 131 is a ceremonial Senate resolution commending Amanda Ames for her 22-year career in Louisiana's water industry, specifically recognizing her service as Chief Engineer of the Bureau of Engineering Services. It highlights her leadership in managing over 1,240 water systems, overseeing critical programs like the Operator Certification Program, and guiding responses to public health emergencies and natural disasters. The resolution formally acknowledges her contributions to state water policy, infrastructure milestones, and awards, including the 2022 LSU Distinguished Alumni Award. As a non-binding tribute, it has no policy impact or legal effect - only expressing the Senate's appreciation for her retirement.
