ASSE New York chapter

New York Chapter President's Message- October 2009

On behalf of ASSE, I want to thank the NYC Plumbing and Fire Protection community for coming out and supporting both ASSE & ASPE societies. We have been having record attendance. We appreciate your sincere commitment to the society. When we see the genuine interest and excitement in our members, we can only work even harder to provide you with the most informative meetings and newsletters, which your membership buys. We best demonstrated this with last month’s speaker, Joseph Crosson, who spoke about the Failure Analysis and In-Service testing of building plumbing piping systems and soldered connections.

Our next presentation by Jack Rosenberg with JR Associates will speak about marine plumbing and sprinkler design, a nice break from designing office towers, schools, and hospitals. We are pleased to offer this rare opportunity; you won’t want to miss this.

Let me close by saying; our sister society ASPE recently had a changing of the guard and want to thank out going ASPE President Hershel Weiss for doing an outstanding job. It has been a real pleasure to work side by side with Hershel. I also look forward to working with ASPE’s newest president Leon Perkolaj. Leon and I share a commitment to stand on the shoulders of the previous accomplishments and continue to serve the Plumbing and Fire Protection Engineers of NYC as best we can.

Please enjoy yourselves and take advantage of the wonderful food and drinks here at Heartland.
