TRIBUTE TO DAVID CHITTICK

______

HON. DICK ZIMMER

of new jersey

in the house of representatives

Thursday, December 21, 1995

Mr. ZIMMER. Mr. Speaker. I rise today to pay tribute to Mr. David Chittick, whose dedication and leadership helped AT&T become a model corporate citizen and a protector of the environment. Mr. Chittick passed away on November 19, 1995, after a battle with cancer.

David Chittick helped AT&T set goals that eventually led to its elimination of ozone-depleting chemicals and significant reductions in toxic air emissions. His career and work as an environmental leader earned Dave much well-deserved recognition. In 1991, he was awarded the Environmental Protection Agency's stratospheric ozone protection award for outstanding leadership in the industrial field. He was a member of the United States Mission to the People's Republic of China on stratospheric ozone depletion in the electronics industry and also served with the United States State Department and EPA delegations to the former U.S.S.R. and Hungary.

In addition, Dave was involved in a number of environmental organizations including the National Wildlife Federation's Corporate Conservation Council, the board of Resources for the Future, the Environmental Law Institute, the Management Institute for Environment and Business and the environmental advisory committee of the Vermont Law School.

Dave Chittick began his career at AT&T in 1955. He served the company well for 39 years until his retirement in 1994. We will all fondly remember him.
