A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND HOOD CONSTRUCTION COMPANY INCORPORATED OF COLUMBIA FOR ITS OUTSTANDING SAFETY RECORD OF ONE MILLION MAN HOURS WITHOUT A WORKLOSS ACCIDENT.

Whereas, the South Carolina General Assembly is pleased to learn that Hood Construction Company Incorporated of Columbia will reach the safety milestone of one million man hours without a workloss accident on February 7, 2012, a count that began on May 25, 2003; and

Whereas, in achieving such a record, Hood Construction joins only a handful of companies that have reached this mark. Behind the company’s successful safety record is its slogan, “Build it the right way. Everything else will follow.” This spirit extends to every aspect of the business, including safety; and

Whereas, established in 1986 by Mark Hood, Hood Construction is a general contractor serving the Carolinas. The company has garnered an enviable list of major projects and renovations, among them Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, SCANA Joint Information Center, Gold’s Gym (Forest Acres), Barks Hall at Hammond School, Church of the Apostles, and South Carolina Veterinary Radiation Oncology, all in Columbia, as well as SCE&G Gas Operations in North Charleston. In addition, its historic renovations include 701 Whaley Street, 1218 Pulaski Street, 1010 Gervais Street, the Palmetto Club, and Trinity Episcopal Cathedral; and

Whereas, for its efforts, Hood Construction has been honored with a Historic Columbia Preservation Award and Historic Columbia Adaptive Reuse Award; the Carolina AGC Presidential Award for Outstanding Safety Performance; Associated General Contractors of America Certificate of Commendation for Excellent Safety Record; South Carolina Chamber of Commerce Commendation for Excellence, Safety Program Recognition; and American Institute of Architects Greater Columbia Excellence Award; and

Whereas, grateful for the company’s consistent commitment to the safety of its workers over a quarter century of operations, the General Assembly takes great pleasure in recognizing Hood Construction Company on its celebration of reaching one million man hours without a workloss accident. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and commend Hood Construction Company Incorporated of Columbia for its outstanding safety record of one million man hours without a workloss accident.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Hood Construction Company Incorporated.
