Last week, NRMCA’s Safety, Environment and Operations staff met with the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) new Smart Sectors Program staff. NRMCA discussed its positions and concerns on a host of issues while encouraging continued open lines of communication and working toward arranging a concrete plant tour for EPA’s staff. The program, created during the Trump Administration and now carried into the Biden Administration, aims to engage “at the national and regional levels with industry trade associations, individual companies, and other stakeholders to pursue opportunities for improved environmental performance.”
NRMCA’s continued partnership with the Smart Sectors Program will ultimately help the ready mixed concrete industry to better communicate its messaging to EPA on regulatory burdens, industry best management practices (BMPs) and industry environmental stewardship. NRMCA continues to advocate with EPA and through the EPA Smart Sectors Program on issues of concern to the ready mixed concrete industry.
