We are in the process of supporting CECA in developing a working group aimed at developing clarity and consistency across a number of topics, such as the ECoW scope and how they are procured, with regard to ECoWs and the construction industry under the banner of CECA’s Environment Forum.
Once an outline format is agreed the working group we will invite stakeholders, such as the LPA’s, the major energy providers, Scottish Water, Transport Scotland, ICE and CITB among others going forward.
Ultimately, we are seeking to provide better support to the industry and ultimately raise its environmental compliance and reduce associated risk. We hope to do this by developing the quality of ECoWs and establishing clarity around the role and better training for those providing it, which forms the basis of our Strategy.
