Pros and cons for each type: Methods of selection: 1&1.1 Criteria for evaluation of discharge of such responsibilities: Avenues for appeals: Methods of surveillance; Methods of control: Techniques of Enforcements Other aspects. . The small contractor and his ecological control obligations: What are they? How can they most economically be discharged? What criteria should be invoked? What co-operative (NICA) services might be structured? What other sources of services ? might be developed? What other considerate on are essential? 2&12 ?. In what ways might occupational health exposures be removed as a "hidden" (delayed) business cost item at the competitive, 'contract bidding" , level? What might be the expected conse 3&13 quences of such proposed cost transfers? What impact on future developments will be generated by increased surveill ance of Environmental Protection Administration technical per sonnel? What other aspects need, to he constdered?
