Attachment S <br />From the Governor <br />For 17 years, the Governor's Awards have publicly recognized exceptional environmental <br />programs and projects throughout the great state of Minnesota. The organizations we <br />honor today have discovered unique ways to prevent waste and pollution through creativ- <br />ity, innovation and resourcefulness while often increasing efficiencies at the same time. <br />We thank them for their commitment to environmental excellence. My administration ap- <br />preciates organizations like these that take responsibility for reducing waste and improving <br />our environment. Their efforts set a shining example for others to follow. <br />While great strides are being made in this area, much work remains. We must continuously <br />work to educate and inspire more Minnesota businesses and communities to reduce waste <br />and pollution. Together, I know we can succeed. <br />On behalf of the state of Minnesota, I congratulate today's winners and thank them for their <br />innovative work that not only benefits their organizations and Minnesota's environment, <br />but all of our citizens and future generations. <br />Governor Tim Pawlenty <br />41 <br />
