Executive Summary
An unexpectedly high number of change orders on a construction project can quickly exhaust contingency funds, delay the schedule and increase project costs. While some changes are unavoidable (e.g., change resulting from advances in technology, as is the case in hospital construction), many can be circumvented if the project team works collaboratively and there is a system in place that provides transparency and a
disciplined process for approving changes.

EPA is pleased to announce the release of voluntary school siting guidelines to help school districts and communities select environmentally healthy and safe locations for schools. The guidelines were mandated by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 and were developed in consultation with other federal agencies, states,

school districts, community organizations, health care professionals, and teachers, as well as environmental justice leaders and children’s health and environmental groups.

On behalf of EPA, I would like to thank those individuals, organizations, and stakeholders who provided valuable feedback to help ensure the guidelines met the intended goal: to provide tools to help communities ensure that new locations for schools are environmentally safe and beneficial to the students they are intended to serve. These

guidelines play an important role in protecting children’s environmental health as well as helping schools avoid costly decisions later.

I encourage you to share the guidelines with your colleagues and partners to help promote healthy school environments for children.

To learn more about the guidelines, please visit our website at www.epa.gov/schools. If you have questions or are interested in working with us to promote healthy schools, please contact Kara Belle at (202) 564-3284 or email belle.kara@epa.gov.
