It is the EPA's policy that recipients of EPA financial assistance award a "fair share" of subcontractor agreements for supplies, construction and services to small, minority and women-owned businesses.
The Fair Share Requirements for Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Women Business Enterprises (WBEs) is 10% and 6%, respectively for King County projects that include EPA funds.
BRED monitors contractor compliance with the Fair Share requirements consistent with the EPA's program guidelines.
More information can be found at the EPA Fair Share website. http://www.epa.gov/osdbu/mission.htm (external link).
