Celebration of Construction on the National Mall May 14-16

On May 14-16, DCA is participating in the “Celebration of Construction on the National Mall” (CCNM) hosted by the Association of Equipment Manufacturers. This is an expansion of the event DCA  participated in last year that showcased construction technologies and practices in front of dozens of OSHA personnel. The CCNM is shaping up to be even bigger and the audience will include not only OSHA and other agencies (EPA, DOA, DOI, DOT/PHMSA, etc.), but also lawmakers and their staff on Capitol Hill. In addition, holding this on the National Mall will attract attendance from a wide audience and probably local media.
 
DCA will have a tent at the event, as will several DCA associate members (equipment manufacturers and service providers) who will be showcasing a range of underground utility equipment. Exhibits will feature displays of the equipment, material, technique and workforce development innovations that enable workers to safely and sustainably build modern infrastructure. Displays will showcase alternative powered equipment, uncrewed systems, trenchless excavation, worksite data management, clean diesel technology, material science and creating the workforce of the future. We hope to have a few DCA contractors there available to discuss HDD and other trenchless excavation operations at or near the DCA booth using nearby equipment showcased by different manufacturers.
 
If you are interested in participating in this event and speaking to attendees as they come through the exhibits, please contact Eben Wyman at eben@wymanassociates.net. This event is open to the public, so if you would like to attend without any speaking/presentation commitments, please let Eben know you’re coming. This should be a great event and a high-profile opportunity for DCA and its members.
