Environmental Protection Plans (EPP) are one of the construction contractor’s first administrative hurdles before work can begin on a project. In recent years, Federal projects have become increasingly focused on environmental protection, and with good reason. The purpose of an EPP is to outline the mitigation measures, contingency plans, and emergency procedures required to protect the environment in proximity to a job site. Compiling this document can be extremely time-consuming as managers aim to comprehensively address every unique facet of the project.
An Accident
Prevention Plan (APP) is one of the first key documents to complete when
starting up a new project. Employee safety comes first and a properly written
APP outlines how managers and stakeholders are going to successfully manage
safety requirements for all aspects of the project. An Accident Prevention Plan, however, requires a lot of work
and research to effectively address all required activities, both individually
and collectively. It’s that excessive amount of time most construction
management professionals spend doing the mundane job of pushing paper instead
of doing something more productive. Valuable hours that are lost forever, which
ultimately hurts the company’s bottom line.
