On behalf of the 450 members of the National Stone, Sand, & Gravel Association I am writing to thank the Environment and Public Works Committee for holding today’s hearing on Federal Actions to Improve Project Reviews for a Cleaner and Stronger Economy.   NSSGA members consist of stone, sand and gravel producers; industrial sand suppliers; and the equipment manufacturers and service providers who support them. Over the last two years, Congress has adopted the largest infrastructure investment in our nation’s history, a revitalization of our domestic manufacturing base and a reshaping of our energy future. Our industry is instrumental to delivering these results, as we provide the billions of tons of aggregates that will be used to pave new transportation networks; build new manufacturing hubs; and construct the networks that deliver reliable and renewable energy to every American home.
