Tear-off Shingle Pilot Projects
• City of St. Paul (2003)
• Dakota County / OEA Lab Study (2005 – 2006)
• Hassan / Omann (2006)
• Ramsey County Lower Afton Trail (2007)

Ramsey County LAT Project:Tear-off Shingle Spec
• Funded in part by Mn/DOT State Aid
• County approached Mn/DOT
• Specification was drafted by Mn/DOT with guidelines
• Ramsey County reviewed and approved specification

On–Going Research
• Minnesota SWMCB – Mn/DOT“Technical Working Group”
• Research Grant from Mn/PCA ($50,000)
