American Hydrotech Associates Accredited as Green Roof Professionals
Chicago, Ill. - American Hydrotech, a recognized leader in the development and distribution of premium waterproofing and roofing products, today announced that three of the company's associates have been accredited as Green Roof Professionals (GRP) by Green Roofs for Health Cities (GRHC), the North American Green Roof Industry Association. Nathan Griswold, Charles Loughrey and Trey Whitley all completed the necessary requirements and inaugural exam on June 5, 2009 during the 7th Annual International Greening Rooftops for Sustainable Communities Conference, hosted by GHRC in Atlanta, GA.
The GRP accreditation exam covers key areas of knowledge, encompassing five areas of concentration including pre-design, design, contract management, quality assurance and support and maintenance. Hydrotech's three associates were among 127 other conference delegates to complete the exam and receive the first-ever GRP accreditation by GRHC. GRP accreditation will verify that the designated GRP has attained a level of the interdisciplinary knowledge needed in the design, installation and maintenance of green roof systems.
