The initial wave of names and sponsors for the National Work Zone Memorial
must be submitted to the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA) by close-of-business Jan. 4, 2002, to be included
in the April unveiling of the project. Already nearly 300 names of those
killed in work zones, and over 25 sponsors, will be included. ATSSA and
Eastern Metal/USA Sign are currently exploring the possibility to have one
more upgrade to the memorial prior to April, but this has not yet been
determined. Therefore, meeting the Jan. 4 deadline is critical to ensure
inclusion during the April 2002 ceremonies. Both name submittal and
sponsorship forms are located at the Public Information link (www.atssa.com). Click on "NWZ Memorial."
