NASSCO committees have accomplished a lot over the years, including the development of standards and specification guidelines that help set the course for the proper assessment, maintenance and rehabilitation of underground infrastructure.

Most recently, NASSCO has put stringent measures in place to ensure the committees are even more productive. Committee members now sign participation agreement forms and track their involvement over time. As a result, NASSCO is achieving more than ever before. A few 2019 highlights to date include:

  • Government Relations Committee’s impact on the advancement of policies and funding in Washington, D.C.
  • Grouting Committee’s ongoing development of Inspector Training and Certification Program curriculum for infiltration control
  • Health and Safety Committee’s response to the CIPP styrene emissions research findings by the Trenchless Technology Center at Louisiana Tech University
  • Infrastructure Assessment Committee’s partnership with the Government Relations Committee to encourage cross-bore policy at state levels
  • International Relations Committee’s translation of Pipeline Assessment and Certification Program Version 7 into Spanish to serve a wider, international audience
  • Lateral Committee’s activity to protect CIPP as a viable option for rehabilitation of lateral lines (specifically, UPC 715.3).

Other NASSCO committee activity includes the Manhole Committee’s presentation at Underground Construction Technology (UCT) 2020, the O&M Committee’s completion of the Jetter Code of Practice Manual, the inclusion of spiral wound and fiberglass reinforced CIPP specifications to NASSCO’s growing library of trenchless technology guidelines, as well as so many more activities happening now to improve our industry tomorrow.

Other benefits of NASSCO committee participation include having a voice in making positive changes to our industry while networking with other professionals who share similar visions. Committee participation pays off in other ways, too. NASSCO will now recruit NASSCO board members from NASSCO committees, nominating only those individuals who have proven to be committed to NASSCO, its mission and the betterment of our industry.
