Road base stabilization 2. Blending old pavement millings with a small amount of rejuvenating emulsion and water (1-5% of each), via pugmill or blade lay. GSB-Repave® is an excellent and proven emulsion for this – it blends coarse and fines into a smooth, malleable finished product. 3. Laying the finished product via blade lay or paver, watering, and rolling to optimum compaction. 4. Sealing via a rejuvenating chip-seal emulsion such as PASS® Sustainability and Pavement Preservation At ASI, we think about sustainability in terms of pavement preservation. Several of our products are both economically and environmentally friendly – particularly GSB-88® and GSB-Repave® – but we will go beyond that here and examine sustainability in a larger global context, as follows: 267 times greater Summary Sustainability is an economic and environmental priority in today’s world, and proper asphalt preservation represents a significant part of it. Asphalt pavement comprises nearly 2% of the earth’s surface, and preserving it wisely can save billions of dollars every year while also reducing annual global greenhouse emissions up to 3%. Affordable and resource-friendly solutions are readily available; utilizing these products and processes properly will help achieve the decoupling of economic growth and environmental decline, and thereby move the planet forward more sustainably.

Sustainability Reporting Track and report progress on sustainability goals to the market in an auditable and easily receptable process. Plastic Containers On a global level, the scale of pavement recycling is huge. Current worldwide volumes of recycled asphalt pavement are (*8): 89 times greater Aluminum Cans 27 times greater Glass Bottles Recycled Asphalt Pavement 13 times greater Newsprint There is an enormous amount of pavement in the world, and the quantity is growing every year Economically & environmentally, it is infinitely cheaper & better for the planet to maintain pavement than it is to replace it Some methods of pavement preservation are much “greener” and therefore more sustainable than others To move forward sustainably on local and global levels, asphalt pavement simply must be preserved wisely © Asphalt Systems, Inc. ® Salt Lake City, Utah September 2014 www.asphaltsystemsinc.com 801-972-2757 Inevitably, some pavements are too deteriorated to maintain and therefore in need of replacement. In these cases, recycling is the most sustainable solution, and is also much cheaper than new pavement (up to 60% less in ASI case studies). From an environmental standpoint, the upside is a significant reduction or elimination of aggregate mining, refining, transport and greenhouse gas emissions. Webster defines Sustainability as “the ability to continue a defined behavior indefinitely,” and “the endurance of systems and processes.” Traditionally, it has been a term used mainly in connection with effort and endurance – work, sports, food (“sustenance”), lasting relationships, and so on. Today, however, sustainability is more often used in the context of environmental concerns; Wikipedia explains it as “the quality of not being harmful to the environment or depleting natural resources, and thereby supporting long-term ecological balance.” World Pavement Numbers In the overall picture of global resources, pavement is a huge component and continues to grow. There are nearly 3-million miles of paved roads in the U.S. alone - enough to circle the earth 120 times at the equator (*1). Total U.S. farmland is approximately 80,000 square miles, while pavement (including parking lots and airfields) is approximately 61,000 square miles. China and India are close behind and growing quickly; globally, we will soon exceed 12-million miles of paved roads. Each additional car requires an average of .18 paved acres (road & parking), meaning that five cars require an additional football field of pavement (*2). The math and global repercussions of these numbers quickly become staggering. And all of us in the pavement industry – engineers, contractors, commissioners, street superintendents, politicians, suppliers – are stewards of this resource, meaning we are ultimately responsible for how to best handle it sustainably. “Decoupling” Economy & Environment Historically, there has been a close correlation between economic growth and environmental degradation: as communities grow, the environment declines (*3). For sustainability, the challenge we face is to decouple these trends; in other words, an economy should be able to sustain GDP growth without incurring corresponding increases in environmental pressure. Utilizing optimal pavement preservation strategies is an important part of this process. The reality is that pavements pose a sustainability challenge. Their construction and maintenance consumes large quantities of non-renewable materials, while also creating significant energy and environmental impacts. In the U.S. alone, over 350 million tons of raw materials go into the construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance of pavements annually (*4). Maintenance Considerations “Environmentally friendly” can often mean “more expensive,” but that is not the case with pavement preservation options. Economically, over a pavement’s 20-30 year lifespan, it is literally ten-times cheaper to maintain existing asphalt than to replace it (*5). And environmentally, enormous resources are saved: studies have shown that if all pavements were properly maintained rather than repaved, global CO2 emissions could be reduced by over one billion metric tons per year, which equals an annual 3% reduction in global greenhouse gas emissions (*6). PCI 100 Excellent Good Fair Poor 20 VeryPoor 40% Drop in Quality 75% of life 40% Drop in Quality Spending $1 on preservation here... 20% of life Failed 0 5 10 15 20 Eliminates or delays spending $6 to $10 on rehabilitation or reconstruction here. Naturally, some pavement preservation products are “greener” and therefore more sustainable than others. Water-based emulsions are widely recognized as a better environmental choice than fuel-based cutbacks. Here at ASI, our GSB-88® sealer/binder/rejuvenator emulsion represents a very economical, versatile, and environmentally friendly option – plus it is the only industry product to receive an Environmental Product Declaration as well as Green Circle Certification. Even larger sustainability differences can be found in various pavement preservation methods, shown in the chart below. The chart illustrates two main considerations: a) products that use lower amounts of asphalt per unit area require the least amounts of energy and also emit less ghg; b) products having the lowest quantity of material applied to the pavement per unit area utilize less energy - because less material needs to be produced, processed, transported and installed.
