I'd like to see how transparent this board will be with the AggreBind polymer they are planning to install on test roads. This product was approved at the Jan board meeting. There was another product that was going to be researched by the Finance Committee, BUT the board bypassed that altogether. There has been no discussion w/the Finance Committee yet on what the terms and conditions are for the AggreBind "test" roads. The last I heard it would be $50,000-55,000 per mile. An expert said that is not inclusive of all costs per mile when all is said and done. Sounds like similar prices per chip seal mile, before adding in other costs.

From what I could barely hear from the GM's report, it'll be a 5 day training period.

According to the AggreBind website (a mainland company), training would be by a AggreBind staff member or contracted to an independent AggreBind trained engineer. Travel would be paid by the dealer/distributor, OR their client. Cost of airfare would be credited against the next order for a full container. They need a strong and highly committed Distributor.

Our engineer (we don't have one) will need to be familiar w/road construction, soil mechanics, be comfortable working w/technicians in a laboratory (?) be able to instruct equipment operators in the field and have strong communication skills.

So who is the distributor, will WE be a distributor and who is "WE" ? Pay attention to the details in the upcoming weeks and months, that's IF they are transparent at board meetings.
