ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bob Chambers was given an award for Extraordinary Contribution by the Georgia Highway Contractors Association at its annual convention in recognition of his service and dedication to the GHCA. Bob has been a member of the GHCA for 30 years and currently serves as its General Counsel as he has for many years.
The award recognizes work of associate members that go above and beyond for the association. The award is not given frequently, and only as a need to recognize the hard work of an associate member arises. Bob is the first attorney to receive the award. The only other award given by the Association is a Lifetime Achievement award, but that goes only to contractor members.
David Moellering, President of the Association said:
“Bob stood out for his longstanding membership and commitment to the association. The membership wanted to recognize Bob not only for his outstanding contribution to the association, but for his contribution to the overall industry and for all the work he has done. He has been a member for 30 years. Bob is always there when needed and has been extremely helpful to a lot of people.”
Robert C. Chambers is a partner in Smith, Currie & Hancock. Since joining Smith, Currie & Hancock in 1985, Bob has worked on numerous environmental matters, differing site condition claims, and construction disputes of all kinds, such as water and wastewater treatment plants, residential developments and buildings, commercial, industrial, and manufacturing facilities, and all types of heavy construction projects, including tunnels, dams, power facilities, airport runways, highways, bridge projects, and an automated light rail facility. He has worked on both public and private projects, including projects administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. EPA, and numerous state and local public entities.
