SENATE CONCURRENT RESOL UTION NO. 16
BY SENATOR MILLIGAN
A CONCURRENT RESOL UTION
To commend Mr. Colton Sanders, owner of CNC Oilfield Services, for his leadership and
the selfless service of Mr. Sanders and his employees in rendering aid and assistance
during the devastating winter storm of February 2021.
WHEREAS, like much of Louisiana, the severe winter weather closed the usual
operations of CNC Oilfield Services on the evening of February 16, 2021; and
WHEREAS, the owner of CNC Oilfield Services, Mr. Colton Sanders, learned that
area hospitals were unable to heat their facilities as their boilers were rendered inoperable
due to the disruption of the city's water services; and
WHEREAS, this knowledge weighed on Mr. Sanders, knowing the suffering of the
patients would be intensified and the difficulties of the hospital staff would increase with the
drastically dropping temperatures in the Shreveport area; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Sanders, along with his employees, recognized their duty to their
community and mobilized the company's trucks that usually haul water to drilling sites, but
instead hauled water to Christus Schumpert, Ochsner LSU Health, Willis-Knighton
Pierremont, Willis-Knighton North, and Progressive Care Center, and successfully restored
the heat; and
WHEREAS, these water transportation operations took place in record-breaking one
degree Fahrenheit temperature as they worked alongside Louisiana National Guardsmen.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby
acknowledge with gratitude and commend Mr. Colton Sanders for his outstanding leadership
and the selfless service of Mr. Sanders and his employees in rendering aid and assistance
during the devastating winter storm of February 2021.
