BILL NUMBER: S8745

SPONSOR: LAVALLE
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the highway law, in relation to designating a portion of
the state highway system in the county of Suffolk as the "Jolly 51 Memo-
rial Bridge"

 
PURPOSE:

To designate a portion of the state highway system constituting the
County Route 31 overpass at Sunrise Highway (State Route 27) in the town
of Westhampton Beach, County of Suffolk, as the "Jolly 51 Memorial
Bridge."

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1. Adds a new subdivision (h) to section 344 of the highway law
designating the County Route 31 overpass at Sunrise Highway (State Route
27) in the town of Westhampton Beach, county of Suffolk, as the "Jolly

51 Memorial Bridge."

Section 2. Provides that the Commissioner of the Department of Transpor-
tation shall provide for the installation and maintenance of adequate
signage of the state highway system as designated pursuant to section
one of this act.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

A tragedy occurred on March 15, 2018, when HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter
"Jolly 51" crashed in western Iraq, resulting in the loss of seven
United States Air Force Airmen. Of the seven who lost their lives that
day, four were New York residents: Captain Andreas B. O'Keefe, of Center
Moriches, Staff Sargent Dashan Briggs, of Port Jefferson Station, Master
Sargent Christopher Raguso, of Commack, and Captain Christopher Zanetis,
of Long Island City. The designation of the overpass of County Route 31,
over New York State Route 27 in the town of Westhampton Beach, will
serve as a permanent reminder of the honor and sacrifice of those who
served valiantly.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall have
become a law.
