I believe the joint session with the Groundwater Engineering Contacts proved beneficial to both groups and hope it will lead to further cross-communication on groundwater related projects at your individual locations.

This ballot asked if the Institute should comment to the EPA on the NRDC petition relative to four points: (1) Different times required to develop safe products for each product type. (2) A summary of the Industry's non-asbestos development at thia time based on the ballot's matrix information. (3) The need for sufficient engineering time for all products. (4) Adequate lead time for manufacturing process development.
