Web Site Offers Help on EPA Compliance

Along with three other national trade associations, NAHB has been working with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Compliance for more than two years to develop a Web site that will help builders, developers and contractors comply with environmental regulations

The site is organized by topic, with sections covering storm water, solid waste (construction debris), hazardous waste, air, wetlands, endangered species and green building.

NAHB has provided the site with up-to-date information on Phase II permits by state.

See how Countrywide’s Prime Rate OTC construction loan can offer more flexibility to qualified buyers.
Learn how our Home Equity Loan offers flexible payment options and the ability to reuse the funds.

Visitors to the site can also find introductory information about Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans.

To share your opinions and ideas for improving the site, e-mail Amy Ericksen or Marolyn Parson, or call them at 800-368-5242 x8662 or x8157.
