President’s Memo – 8/16/11

I am very excited to be the president of the Illinois Chapter for 2011-2012.   It is going to be a great year for the chapter.  We have some exciting dinner meeting presentations scheduled, starting with Stephen Thorn on September 20.  Stephen is an environmental attorney and will be discussing EPA regulations and how they affect the concrete industry.  It should be very entertaining and informative for people in all aspects of the industry.  Then, on October 25, Mike Morrison, Manager of Certification Program Development for ACI International, will give us a presentation regarding the ACI/CRSI adhesive anchor installer certification program.  This is a new certification that ACI is rolling out and our chapter is on the leading edge, offering certification classes in September and November of this year.
