The California Construction and Industrial Materials Association (CalCIMA) announced its 2023 All Star Awards on November 7 at the 2023 Education Conference. All Star award winners are chosen based on their contributions to advancing and making positive impacts for the industry. This year, All Star Award winners were selected based on their contributions to advance sustainability, safety, participation in the Concrete Testing Adherence Collaboration, and advocacy with the Department of Transportation and California Air Resources Board.
“Every day members are working with the association's staff and our policy committees to provide input, outreach, and implementation of regulations and association programs,” said Robert Dugan, President and CEO of CalCIMA. “That engagement ensures that we craft solutions and advocacy that works for our industries' producers. Their work is often behind the scenes, but really is the important work to continue the availability and supply of essential materials. We couldn't do it without them. We are happy to honor these hardworking members. As “ONE CalCIMA,” we are stronger together and that is always worth celebrating!”
