CCSA 25 years and Going Strong

2012 will be 25th Anniversary of the California Chip Seal Association. We take this time to recognize the dedication of all the  Industry Member Organization, volunteer employee participants and the government agency and academic contributors who have made this first 25 years effort an invaluable tool for everyone connected to the cause of Pavement Preservation.

With that in mind we embark on the next 25 years with a clear vision and a dedication to helping promote the use of and increase the informational resources available to the Road Building/Pavement Preservation segment of Indusry, Academia and Public Agencies.

We invite you all to attend our annual Pavement Preservation Work Shop/Conference February 9/10, 2012 in Sacramento, California at the J St. Holiday Inn. With an exciting, entirely new format, this event will begin our next 25 years of planned, renewed dedication to our stakeholders.

Kicking off the next quarter century of the CCSA will be our Keynote Speaker, Larry Galehouse, a renowned expert on the advancement of Pavement Preservation and the Founder of the National Center for Pavement Preservation. He will share with us insite gained from years of experience at the Michigan DOT and as a Chairman or leading member of many of the Federal and National Boards and Committees on Pavement Preservation.

This Work Shop will encompass many new, and what we are sure will be information packed sessions and round table discussions. An  afternoon will be dedicated to breakout sessions with hands on demonstrations of materials testing, test equipment, test result analysis, correct sampling procedures for  materials (Liquids/Aggregates) used everyday in the treatments that we all depend and rely on to keep our roads in good shape.

Academia from the University of Nevada, Reno Superpave Center, Cal State University Chico CP2 and Lawrence Livermore Lab will present analysis of surface treatments, new innovative processes being used here and around the world and Cool Pavements. There will be Round Table discussions by leading Industry and Agency representatives on the treatments we use every day.

We look forward to seeing you in February
