Virginia Engineers Briefed on Pervious Concrete

NRMCA Senior Director, National Resource, Phil Kresge recently gave two presentations at the Chantilly, VA, offices of William Gordon Associates and CH2M Hill. The presentations were facilitated by Hessam Nabavi, director of industry services for the northern region of the Virginia Ready-Mixed Concrete Association (VRMCA). In light of the new stormwater regulations issued by the VA Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), both offices had requested information on pervious concrete. Kresge presented NRMCA’s one-hour Concrete Solutions to Stormwater Runoff presentation. Nabavi provided regional support materials, including a list of completed pervious concrete projects in Northern Virginia. Additionally, Kresge took the opportunity to promote NRMCA’s Design Assistance Program (DAP) and Specifier Series Webinars.

At the CH2M Hill meeting, Kresge and Nabavi were joined by Ann-Germaine Danz, the newly hired VRMCA director of industry services for Eastern VA and Lehigh Cement’s Mark Granahan, secretary/treasurer of the Northern Virginia Concrete Advisory Council.
