OLD BUSINESS Joe Saxton asked Steve Alberico, what the status of a suggested Interference Testing session was. Steve said it will not be part of the Liberty Bell Corrosion Course and that Josh Stanley is working on a presentation that will be given at the February 2018 Joint Corrosion Committee Exhibitor meeting. Emer Flounders asked about the disposition of the section end of year financial report. Since he is the treasurer for the LBCC he wanted to be on a section audit committee. Paul Fallis was not present to answer the questions that came out of the discussion. Emer also asked what the results of the new section officer balloting process. Drew informed the attendees that out of our section membership of 460 + members only 80 people voted in the recent election and that people at the Houston Headquarters are currently trying to work the bugs out of the proposed system for future voting. NEW BUSINESS Dave announced to the attendees that he had Liberty Bell Course registration information and information about the Section Scholarship for anyone interested. This information is also available on the section website www.nace-philapa.org A discussion followed about possibly increasing the amount of our scholarship or the number of scholarships that we offer, the issue will be revisited after the 2018 LBCC. Dan Joseph mentioned that Paul Fallis was looking into creating a Philadelphia Section page on Facebook and LinkedIn. It was suggested that before entering the section into Facebook or LinkedIn that the issue needed to be discussed and approved by the Board of Directors. Dan proposed that the section consider giving additional funding to the NACE Foundation. After discussion the attendees chose to table the issue at this meeting. FUTURE MEETINGS AND SCHOOLS George Krewson reported that the the 2017 Eastern Area conference will be conducted October 9-11 at the Doubletree Meadow Lands in Washington PA. The section Holiday Meeting will be held on December-08, 2017, at the Na Brasa Restaurant on Rt 611 in Horsham, PA. With a Board meeting at 11:00 am followed by lunch and a gift drawing. The joint meeting held in May in the Williamsport area had a good attendance and he suggested that we have another meeting there in May 2018. Everyone present agreed that that was a good idea.
