Chandler Petersen – S&B Portable Restrooms 2016 Winner "As someone who has previously seen the ins and outs of a portable sanitation busines s, I can say without a doubt that this is something our up and coming world couldn't function without. Portable sanitation is something we need to keep our fast paced world afloat. Using portable sanitation makes it easier for us to keep job sites more pro ductive which increases the amount of work that's done. It also gives us the availability to use outdoor venues to double the amount of things going on in one place." Daniel Mooers – Satellite Industries 2015 and 2016 Winner "I love the outdoors; playin g soccer, hiking, golfing and fishing. My family is the same. We usually plan our vacations around being outdoors and I appreciate what the portable sanitation industry has done to make enjoying the outdoors much easier. America is the land of opportunity. For some, that means building and servicing portable restrooms. It is vital that few of us consider the importance until we think of the many outdoor activities that are available and enhanced because of the existence of these restrooms. When it comes to our nation, it is a better place to live because of the portable sanitation industry." Visit www.psai.org/scholarship - program/ for more information on the 2017 PSAI Scholarship !
