LiUNA strongly supports A7491B (Bronson)/S5868B (Harckham), which requires the payment of prevailing wages to construction works in order to be eligible for tangible property tax credits associated with brownfield remediation.

Brownfields present unique environmental and public health hazards, making timely & efficient remediation essential.

Prevailing wage requirements for brownfield remediation will:

• Promote the use of a trained & skilled workforce
• Create healthier, more environmentally friendly communities
• Spur economic growth
• Promote workplace safety
• Increase project efficiency
• Allow more workers to join the middle class
