- 1. Perkins & Will along with the other architectural firms,
and red list banning or restricting coppers use should be investigated further and their concerns should be challenged with factual information
- 2. Washington Dept Ecology and Towson studies should
be used as a basis for us to continue our BLM and bioavailability messages
- 3. Continued coordination of efforts world-wide, and the
ability to combine efforts / budgets
- 4. Misclassification of copper in building material
- 5. Soil ecotoxicity threshold models in US soils
