NAHSA Committees

Industry Advocacy Committee- Ron Eberly-American Clay Works, Chair

The goal of the IA Committee is to maintain a pulse on government and legislative affairs that impact our industry. Through close partnerships with affiliate and governmental organizations, Committee Members are able to up date members with pertinent information and possible next steps.  Most recently, IA Chair Ron Eberly attended the Leonardo Academy's Stakeholder's Dialog Meeting regarding the draft agriculture standards currently under development. These standards have potential implications to NAHSA's members, therefore an application for a Committee seat has been submitted.

This Committee is comprised of three sub-committees: 

  • Water Issues Sub-Committee: Rick Bechtel- McConkey Company, Chair
  • Government Relations Sub-Committee: Rodd Mosel- American Plant Products, Chair
  • Publications Sub-Committee: Ron Eberly-American Clay Works, Chair
    • Still under development
