BY: M. of A. Blankenbush

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 February 15-21, 2026, as Grain Bin Safety Week in
 the State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official weeks that are set aside to increase awareness of important
issues that affect the lives of agricultural workers of New York State;
and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, it is the sense of this Legislative Body to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 15-21, 2026, as
Grain Bin Safety Week in the State of New York; and

 WHEREAS, Safety of farm and agricultural workers is of utmost
importance to this state; and

 WHEREAS, It takes only seconds to be completely engulfed in flowing
grain or overcome by oxygen-deficient atmospheres; and

 WHEREAS, Grain production, handling, and transportation is a
significant industry in the State of New York; and

 WHEREAS, More than 900 cases of grain engulfment have been reported
with a fatality rate of 62% in the past 50 years; and

 WHEREAS, Through education and awareness of hazards, as well as safe
work practices and procedures, Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company and
the State of New York strive to reduce the number of preventable
injuries and deaths associated with grain handling and storage; and

 WHEREAS, Grain Bin Safety Week is a collaborative effort by
agricultural industry leaders and agricultural professionals working
together; and

 WHEREAS, Through education and awareness of hazards and safe work
practices and procedures, the State of New York hopes to reduce the
number of preventable injuries and deaths associated with grain handling
and storage; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 15-21, 2026, as
Grain Bin Safety Week in the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
