Plastics in Underground Pipes 2009 will take place at the Radisson Resort Orlando – Celebration, Florida, from 6-7 May 2009. With underground pipes, installation time and costs are critical and plastics–by offering flexibility, durability and chemical resistance–are increasingly being used to overcome many of the issues with traditional materials. A program for the event is now available. One of the speakers featured will be Rick Thomas of TRI/Environmental, who will speak on the subject of “The development of HDPE corrugated drainage pipe containing recycled HDPE for highway applications.” View the program in PDF.
