SR 49 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Commending volunteers for their recovery efforts for flooding at Chief Logan State Park

Senate Resolution 49 is a ceremonial resolution adopted by the West Virginia Senate on February 25, 2026, to formally commend volunteers for their efforts in recovering from the May 2025 flash flooding at Chief Logan State Park. It specifically recognizes community members, organizations, and local officials - including park staff, students, business leaders, and emergency personnel - who volunteered to clear debris, restore facilities, and support recovery under difficult conditions. The resolution expresses the Senate’s gratitude for their "extraordinary service" and "selfless dedication" but contains no new policy, funding, or legal obligations. As a symbolic gesture, it does not affect any laws or directly impact specific groups beyond acknowledging their contributions.
