NRMCA Pervious Promotion Subcommittee to Meet in Las Vegas in October

The NRMCA Pervious Concrete Promotion Subcommittee will meet Wednesday, October 3, at the M Resort, South Henderson, NV. The meeting is being held in conjunction with the Annual Pervious Concrete Roast which is sponsored by Bunyan Industries and held in nearby Sloan, NV. The meeting is open to all NRMCA members, state affiliates and invited guests. You do not need to be registered for the Roast in order to attend the subcommittee meeting; all Roast registrants are invited to attend.

                

"We proposed a change in venue this year to accommodate the many pervious concrete professionals who would be attending the Pervious Roast," said Phil Kresge, NRMCA senior national resource director and staff liaison to the subcommittee. "The Roast attracts a large percentage of the ready mix industry’s pervious brain trust and it seemed appropriate to take the meeting to them." In the past, the subcommittee meeting has been held in conjunction with NRMCA’s ConcreteWorks conference.

The meeting is scheduled from 2 - 5 p.m. in the Molise 45 meeting room. The focus of the meeting will be to discuss obstacles that are currently hampering the acceptance of pervious concrete as the preferred stormwater management BMP. Attendees can share their successes and frustrations in the hope that peer support can provide direction and assistance. Additionally, updates will be provided with regard to advancements/revisions in the contractor certification and acceptance testing arenas.
