                Noises in the House over rubber in the road. (road construction 
                trade groups oppose legislation requiring use of asphalt 
                containing crumb rubber) Tom Ichniowski. 
            Abstract: The American Assn of State Highway and Transportation 
            Officials (AASHTO) and the National Asphalt Pavement Assn (NAPA) 
            seek changes or relief from provisions of the 1991 Intermodal 
            Surface Transportation Efficiency Act that require states to use 
            recycled crumb rubber in 5% of their asphalt tonnage laid in 1994 
            and and increasing amounts in later years. AASHTO and NAPA 
            complained to Rep Bob Carr (D-MI). They maintain crumb-rubber 
            asphalt will add about $1 billion per year to state pavement costs 
            by 1997.
