How does the PRCF determine if the expenses are necessary and reasonable?

0

Generally, costs incurred under an order or recommendation from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources or the PRCF are considered “necessary”. Necessary costs are only reimbursable if the PRCF has given approval before they are incurred. Reasonableness is determined by a number of factors, including site-specific conditions and local market trends. Tools used by the PRCF for determining reasonableness include internal cost screening guidelines for both contractor work and environmental consulting services, competitive quotes and a specialized computer model for estimating cleanup expenses.
