The Working Committees meet monthly on the third Wednesday. They are designed to provide networking and information sharing opportunities to keep member-companies up-to-date on critical issues, as well as to provide in-depth analysis of proposed rules and regulations so MCCV can adequately represent your concerns before the regulatory agencies. As always, if you have questions or need more information, please let me know. If the agenda does not transmit properly, please let me know and I will send in a different format.
