Does the price for a PFP cleanup include the cost of the site characterization?
No, although USTIF will continue to pay for the site characterization, PFP only includes the cleanup of releases from UST systems, not the site characterization. Site characterization results must be on hand before the PFP price can be set for a site and are reviewed by the bidders on the cleanup. A modified and more rigorous SCR (“SCR Plus”) will be prepared for the bidding remediation contractors in the pilot program.
