Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that their proposed endeavor had national importance. The Director found, and the AAO agreed, that the record only showed the petitioner's company would benefit individual customers, not that it would broadly impact U.S. roads and highways or the field of civil engineering on a national scale.
