Letter to House T&I Committee on WRDA 2024
On behalf of the over 450 members of the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA), I am writing to express our support for the Water Resources and Development Act of 2024. NSSGA represents aggregates producers and those who manufacture equipment and services that support the construction industry. Our members are essential to the work of this country, and we represent more than 90 percent of the crushed stone and 70 percent of the sand and gravel produced annually in the United States. Our members employ more than 100,000 hard-working men and women, who are responsible for the essential raw materials found in every home, building, road, port, dam and public works project. NSSGA supports efforts to improve and invest in all levels of our nation’s infrastructure network, including critical navigable waterways essential to America’s economic competitiveness.
