Geosynthetics language now in new water act

GMA efforts get a congressional letter of support

Editor’s note

The Geosynthetic Materials Association (GMA), working with its government relations firm in Washington, D.C., has helped to generate a congressional letter of support signed by five Members of Congress. The letter calls for specific geosynthetics language in the Water Resources Reform & Development Act (WRRDA). The letter was sent to the chairman and the ranking member of the U.S. House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee on Sept. 11, 2013.
