G-I Geosynthetics Committee Votes Unanimously to Adopt New Mission Statement and Goals

Mission:
To organize and coordinate geosynthetic-related education, application, and research activities within ASCE/G-I, and with other geosynthetics-related communities.
Goals:
The committee will focus on developing and organizing sessions and disseminating information on innovative developments within annual specialty conferences, by G-I and other organizations, that explore geosynthetics topics as related to the conference’ or event’s theme. To this end, the committee will coordinate with other G-I committees and other geosynthetics-related organizations to identify and incorporate timely issues and technologies. Organized sessions will be augmented by special events and various forums of publications to highlight and promote geosynthetics technologies and applications.
