The NRMCA Promotion Committee has recognized Jereme Montgomery of the Nebraska Concrete & Aggregates Association (NCAA) as its State Affiliate Promoter of the Year. The award Promoter of the Year Award recognizes outstanding concrete promotion contributions by an employee of one of NRMCA’s State Affiliate partner organizations. Mongomery's recent noteworthy accomplishments include:

• Parking lot market share - Starting in 2006, the NCAA started surveying Nebraska’s 10 largest counties to establish concrete market share for new construction. With the exception of the first year, Nebraska’s concrete market share has increased every year and has recorded an astounding 96% in 2012 and 2013.
• Pervious concrete - Few have established a better quality assurance program for producing and placing pervious concrete than Nebraska. Since 2009, Nebraska has established quality control measures to ensure that the hardened "in-place" void content is predictable. If you can predict the in-place void content, you can also predict infiltration, strength and, most importantly, DENSITY. Density is our Destiny, and Nebraska has the data to prove it.

The award will be presented to Montgomery on March 3, 2015 during the NRMCA Annual Convention In Orlando. For more information about the award program itself, contact Glenn Ochsenreiter at glenn@nrmca.org.
