| 摘要： | The Geosynthetic Materials Association (GMA) recently made progress regarding the use of asphalt interlayers on airfield pavement projects funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The use of interlayers has been severely restricted for these projects for approximately seven years, based on policy guidance issued by the FAA Airport Engineering Division. With the assistance of Whitmer & Worrall, on September 29, 2022, GMA met with Bradley Mims, deputy administrator of the FAA. The meeting's objectives were to present the benefits of geosynthetics related to the sustainability and resilience goals of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and to discuss issues that have arisen in the past regarding the use of asphalt interlayers on FAA-funded projects. We were successful in both cases, and we received a commitment from Mims to assist with the Airport Engineering Division on the interlayer issues. |
