CSI Promotes Environmental Awareness

In July the Construction Specifications Institute appointed an Ad Hoc Environmental Issues Committee to promote awareness of environmental matters among CSI members and the construction industry. In its mission statement, CSI includes a commitment to “encourage the use of construction materials that will ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the public, protection of the environment, and conservation of resources.” The committee will develop initial goals and objectives in meetings scheduled for September 1993.
