Three Cemex USA quarries win NSSGA awards

Cemex USA's FEC Quarry in Miami won the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) 2018 Platinum Award for Excellence in Community Relations. Two other Cemex USA facilities in Florida also received community recognition from the NSSGA.
 
Kirk Light, Cemex USA Regional President – Florida region, accepted the award during a ceremony at the NSSGA's Annual Convention in Houston, Texas.
 
"The FEC Quarry and all of our operations in Florida are committed to developing long-lasting relationships in their communities while working in a responsible and sustainable fashion," Mr Light said. "This achievement demonstrates the FEC team's tremendous ongoing efforts in South Florida to inform, educate and respond to the community in which they operate."

NSSGA also recognised FEC Quarry with its Two Stars of Excellence Award, a distinction for earning both an Environmental Excellence Gold Award in 2017 and a Community Relations Gold Award this year. The NSSGA presents the accolade to operations that receive two Gold Awards within a five-year period.
 
Cemex's 474 Sand Mine in Clermont, Florida, and Davenport Sand Mine in Davenport, Florida, were also recognised by the NSSGA, each earning 2018 Bronze Awards for Excellence in Community Relations.
