New AGC 'questions and considerations' document on PFAS
AGC of America released a new resource to help contractors identify and manage risks associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on construction projects. The document, General Contractors: Questions and Considerations Related to PFAS, outlines key issues to raise before the project starts and once you are on the jobsite.The document is a practical tool to help contractors. It gives a starting point for identifying those risks and pressing for a fair allocation of responsibility.
- Understand PFAS risks (regulatory, contractual, and site-specific).
- Ask the right questions of owners and project partners.
- Manage cost and liability when dealing with impacted soils and groundwater effluent.
We want to thank the members of the PFAS Task Force and Environmental Committee for their leadership in this effort!
