Rolling Meadows, IL – PMI is Celebrating a Decade of PMI Progress and Growth during the Spring 2008 PMI meeting scheduled for March 30 – April 2 at The Balboa Bay Club & Resort, Newport Beach, CA. PMI was re-organized under its present management structure in 1998.

Following the PMI Board of Directors meeting and the General Membership meeting on Sunday, March 30, the PMI Spring Meeting will feature a variety of sessions focusing on topics that keep you awake at night: "GREEN" (initiatives), "GREY" (water), housing and the economy, the emergence of India, next steps in the implementation of the new California law based upon AB 1953 (from the view of suppliers, distributors, inspectors, certifiers, recyclers, and homebuilders), other new legislation now being developed around the country, and the soon-to-be launched PMI micro site. Watch for announcements regarding Tuesday’s keynote speaker.

The conference’s grand finale will be a Wednesday, April 2 morning session devoted to Alternate Sources of Water – including rain harvesting. We will conclude this exciting session by noon to accommodate attendees’ travel arrangements. Details to follow!

Watch for speakers to be announced soon! See you in late March!

Registration Deadline is February 26!
