Conference News May 30th, 2013……………….. 

During Turney Hernandez years with DuPont, he worked with Highway Departments all over the U.S. Many were good customers and good friends.  A number of them asked him to lead the way to form a national association that would benefit all states, counties and cities. So, in January, 1984, at a Southern Weed Science meeting in Hot Springs, AR, fifteen key decision makers met and Kansas City, MO became the site of the first Annual Natiional Roadside Vegetation Management Association Conference.  If you count from 1984, its inception, to 2013, this will be the 30th ANNIVERSARY OF NRVMA.
