Video Message on ECAO Initiatives Impacting Contractors

September 13, 2021

In this video message form ECAO Executive Director, Graeme’s message is asking ECAO members for their participation in several upcoming initiatives that impact contractors.

ECAO and OEL are working on obtaining more contractor experiences with the ESA permit system. While ESA conducts their own surveys, we believe our ECAO/OEL independent survey may be useful in identifying some key issues to be addressed with ESA in the future.

The survey is being conducted by an independent consultant and all answers are anonymous and confidential.
