State and local efforts, activities report, Lobby Day on GMA's agenda

摘要

During my first year as a division supervisor, managing the Geosynthetic Materials Association, GMA has seen an increase in activity. GMA has been able to capitalize on its strong presence on Capitol Hill, by encouraging Congress to pass a long-term highway bill that included meaningful geosynthetic language. GMA has made significant efforts to cultivate relationships with federal departments such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Department of Commerce.
