National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association Executive Vice President Michele Stanley will be interim chief executive officer upon the mid-October departure of Michael Johnson, who has served as president and CEO for 11 years and will maintain those titles in a November 1 transition to the American Coatings Association, Washington, D.C. 

“Under Mike’s leadership, NSSGA is in the best position it’s ever been in to represent and advocate for our members,” says Board Chair Jim Nickolas (Martin Marietta Materials). “During his tenure, the association successfully implemented four successive Rocks Build America strategic plans and our membership has grown to now exceed 500 member companies within the aggregates and industrial sand industry. Furthermore, Mike has assembled a team of professionals that will carry on the great work to deliver value to our member companies. The reputation and influence that NSSGA enjoys today is a testament to the work Mike and his team have done. On behalf of NSSGA’s leadership and its members, we wish him much success in his next chapter.”

The interim CEO appointment was announced less than a month after the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association made similar moves in response to the resignation and immediate exit of Mike Philipps, staff president.
