There is a call for papers for the International Symposium on Pavement PCA (Pavement LCA 2014) taking place on October 14-16, 2014. This TRB and FHWA-sponsored workshop, hosted by the University of California, Davis, and the University of California, Berkeley, will focus on the implementation of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for pavements. The workshop will be coordinated with activities of the FWHA Sustainable Pavement Technical Working Group. The workshop subject is implementation of LCA in pavement operations, at network and project levels. The purpose of the workshop is to review current status, identify the extent of consensus and discuss future developments for implementation of pavement LCA in North America. This workshop will be a follow up to the 2010 Pavement LCA workshop held at UC Davis and the 2012 RILEM meeting on LCA for pavement materials held in Nantes, France.

Please note that there is a particular interest on the part of the Young Professionals Committee. Those who will be 35 and younger at the time of the conference are encouraged to submit a paper. A cash prize will be awarded to the best paper submitted by a young professional.
