Do you have a public or private sector client that has gone above and beyond what the law requires for cultural resource management? Now is the time to recognize their commitment - submit them for a 2019 ACRA Industry Award before next week's deadline!

Recent past winners of our industry awards include Calpine Corporation and the Dayton Power and Light Company for the private sector, and the City of Wilmington and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation for the public sector. You can see the full list of previous awards recipients here.

One thing you may notice on that list is that the ACRA Awards don't always focus on industry projects. The ACRA Public Service Award allows you to recognize friends and colleagues who are making important contributions to CRM or their community outside of specific projects.

The award is presented to an ACRA company, or current employee thereof, who has made a long-term contribution to the study, management, and/or preservation of cultural resources, or who has contributed volunteer efforts and resources for the betterment of their immediate community, county, state, etc. Contributions may include, but are not limited to, training students for CRM careers, internships, and the development and delivery of environmental, preservation, and interpretive programs.

The deadline for receipt of nominations is fast approaching: FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 2019, at 5:00 PM EDT. Awards will be presented during the ACRA Conference October 24-27, 2019, in Spokane, Washington. For more details on each of these awards and how to submit your nominations, click here.
