St. Paul District Employee, East Grand Forks, Minn., Resident Receives Second Construction Management Excellence Award
 
(Excerpts from a July 6th, 2004 US Army Corps of Engineers
Press Release)
SAINT PAUL, MINN. - The U.S. Army Corps Engineers' headquarters selected East Grand Forks, Minn., resident and Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District, employee Virginia Regorrah for the 2003 Construction Management Excellence award.  This follows her selection as the Mississippi Valley Division recipient of this award last April.

The Construction Management Excellence award is given out annually by Corps' headquarters to recognize excellence in construction management by construction field personnel.  To compete at the Corps' headquarters level, she fist had to be selected for the same award by the Mississippi Valley Division, which included competing with nominees from each of its six districts along the Mississippi River.  Then, she competed against the nominees from eight divisions, representing 41 districts.

Regorrah received her award in St. Louis, Aug. 9, from Lt. Gen. Carl Strock, chief of engineers, during the Corps' annual Senior Leaders Conference.

Virginia [Regorrah] has truly embraced the team concept," said Bruce Boldon, the St. Paul District's chief of construction,  "and her routine inclusion of not only the Corps of Engineers' staff, but also city staff, the contractor and other interested parties to resolve all issues is a key part of her success."
