AGC members from across the country met with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to convey the construction industry’s concerns with the EM 385-1-1, 2008 safety manual revision. AGC contractors, along with members of the Dredging Contractors of America and the Council for Dredging and Marine Construction Safety, went section by section through the first draft revision manual with USACE safety representatives.
USCAE recently revised the schedule for the revision to allow more time for comments from the industry. First draft safety manual revision comments are due Sept. 1. The second draft will be published on Nov. 5. To review the first draft and comment, click here.
AGC will hold a second draft revision meeting to discuss contractor concerns later this year and will alert members when more details are available.
