On Thursday, June 27, NSSGA's GARA team hosted a Policy Briefing Webinar. Hear about the NDAA reauthorization and its implications for our industry; discover the latest updates on the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) and how they impact water resources and infrastructure; understand the status and future prospects of the Highway Transportation Fund (HTF); and hear the latest developments on the silica rule.
Every time you interact with a customer, competitor or supplier, you are at risk of violating the antitrust laws. Antitrust violations can result in large fines to individuals and companies, class-action lawsuits and even prison terms. This session outlines the requirements for avoiding antitrust violations.
NSSGA is pleased to Part 1 of an interactive webinar series on medical surveillance programs for workers with silica dust exposures. A medical surveillance program is a significant part of an occupational health program for workers exposed to silica dust, is required to be offered under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) silica standard and is expected to be included in the upcoming Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) rule on silica dust.
In this webinar, we dove into the basics of advocacy and provide strategies on how to have an impactful meeting on Capitol Hill. From Hill meeting prep, to navigating around the Capitol complex, to drafting a thank you note, this webinar shared the basics on how to be a great advocate for the industry. Again this year, we are partnering with NAPA and NRMCA for our joint Hill Days. The association's government affairs staff was on hand to answer questions!
This webinar offers tips on getting your unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV, or drone) program started safely and legally. UAVs and systems are creating exciting new opportunities for aggregates operations to scope out, plan, conduct and monitor operations. But, the airspace is now regulated. The ABCs of UAVs provides a roadmap of the essential steps to follow when starting a drone program in order to ensure that you are in compliance with current FAA regulations.
With the 2022 midterm elections behind us, the 118th Congress has over 75 new members in the House and Senate. This new Congress will present new challenges and opportunities for our industry, so it is critical that we prepare for this now. While ROCKPAC raised a record breaking $750,000 in the 2022 cycle, there is always more work to do. That is why in the 2023 - 2024 cycle, ROCKPAC will focus on further growth and increasing its reach on Capitol Hill.
You can watch this webinar, recorded Dec. 11, to learn more about antitrust laws, which are regulations encouraging competition by prohibiting certain agreements and information exchanges with competitors, and limiting the market power of any particular firm or business. To steer clear of antitrust violations - which could lead to large fines, class-action lawsuits or even prison terms - it's important to understand what is legal and what isn't.
