December 2022 Program Updates

As we approach the end of 2022, we would like to take this time to say thank you to all participating contractors for your hard work, communication, and coordination throughout the year. Your commitment to the Program has made this year a success, and we look forward to 2023.

Friendly reminder: Coordinate and schedule time with your Account Manager to complete and submit all Program close-out documentation (e.g., final invoices, permit forms, etc.). This will ensure a smooth transition as we head into 2023.
