Description

Environmental concerns are involved in almost every construction project. Here's the first book that will give you advice on key environmental issues in public and private projects. It will prepare you for environmental problems encountered in bidding, contract drafting, claims, damages, liens, and bonding and insurance. You'll also get listings of environmental agencies, a checklist for Phase I environmental surveys, sample proposals for Phase I and II site assessments, remediation subcontracts, and site safety plans. Other topics covered include federal considerations and a chapter devoted to asbestos remediation. With this book, you'll discover how to anticipate and manage hidden environmental issues and problems during construction projects.
