WHAT'S NEW IN 2018?

LEGISLATION FOR THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY   

Join Skip Daum, Lobbyist for the American Subcontractors Association of California (ASAC) as he gets us ready for the new laws hitting the books in 2018.

997 bills reached the Governor’s desk in the first half of the 2017-18 legislative session.  He vetoed about 5% of them.  All the rest were signed ("Chaptered") which proves, once again, that there are hundreds of laws being introduced and amended every year.  This avalanche of new laws is precisely why MCAC is a member of ASAC.  ASAC stays on top of key construction issues so that we are informed, represented, and protected.  Here is a sampling of the issues impacting construction: 

  • AB 92 extends until 2023 the provision allowing awarding bodies to exceed 5% retention on a project if that project is deemed to be “substantially complex”
  • AB 262 This bill, the Buy Clean California Act, would, by January 1, 2019, require the 
    Department of General Services to establish, and publish in the State Contracting Manual, a maximum acceptable global warming potential for each category of eligible material, in accordance with requirements set out in the bill
  • AB 1223 helps subcontractors determine whether state agencies have paid a general contractor for your work so that you may demand timely payment
  • AB 1701 makes subcontractors responsible for the debt of other subcontractors (read for yourself: “…assume, and be liable for, specified debt owed to a wage claimant that is incurred by a subcontractor, at any tier, acting under, by, or for the direct contractor for the wage claimant's performance of labor included in the subject of the original contract…”

SILICA, SILICA, SILICA 
NEXT STEPS – CONTROL THAT DUST

The new silica rule is in force.  You have your written exposure plan and your Competent Person.  The MCAC mortar mixing test data has been added to your silica plan and you have provided the Voluntary Respirator Form to affected employees.  So, you’re all set…or are you? 
Control, Contain, Remove is the objective.  How are you meeting that objective? 

Four of the leading dust control equipment manufacturers have been assembled to help you find solutions that work for you.  These companies were chosen for their recognition as innovative product suppliers and/or their acknowledgement by Cal/OSHA, NIOSH’s SilicaSafe.org, or other industry silica studies as being providers of effective dust control tools and equipment.  Make sure you have the silica-compliant tools you need and take advantage of the discount pricing being offered exclusively to attendees of this informative program.
