Dear Mr. Price:

In your letter of December 10, 2007, you requested the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) acceptance of the Signtex 3mm thick aluminum composite material as a sign substrate for use on the National Highway System (NHS) under the provisions of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 350 “Recommended Procedures for the Safety Performance Evaluation of Highway Features.” To support your request you provided a copy of Karco Engineering, LLC. test report dated November 5, 2007, entitled “Crash Test Report for Signtex, Inc 4 X 4 Sign Test,” test videos, and product specification information.

This letter is the acknowledgment of the FHWA’s acceptance of your request. The original completed form has been modified by the addition of the FHWA acceptance letter number and the date of our review. The form, of which a copy is enclosed for reference, will be posted on our Web site in the near future.

Sincerely yours,

George E. Rice
