Pit & Quarry, April, 2005

The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) has named Glenn L. Martin, president of Martin Stone Quarries Inc. of Bechtelsville, Pa., recipient of the eighth annual Barry K. Wendt Memorial Commitment Award for his dedication to the construction aggregates industry, his family and his community.

Martin is a longtime member and former chairman of the Pennsylvania Aggregates and Concrete Association (PACA). During his tenure as chairman, Martin led PACA as it joined with four other trade associations to form a political action federation. He serves on NSSGA's Small Producers Council and actively participates in the association's political action committee, ROCKPAC.

The award is named for Iowan Barry K. Wendt (1946-1997), a Cedarapids Inc. employee and industry leader who was universally recognized as a leader in the aggregates industry. He had served as chairman of the Manufacturers Divisions of both the former National Aggregates Association and National Stone Association.
