About this file
This is a Mitigation Plan document for the City-Wide Alley-Sewer Repair Program (ASRP) in Detroit, prepared by the City of Detroit Housing and Revitalization Department (HRD) in partnership with the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (DWSD). The plan establishes required activities and responsibilities for contractors engaged in alley sewer inspection, rehabilitation, and replacement work funded through CDBG-DR resources. Key requirements include submission of a Health and Safety Management Plan by the general contractor prior to construction for HRD approval, compliance with DWSD Excavation and Handling of Contaminated Materials specifications during construction, and mandatory archaeology training for field crews prior to work commencement. The plan identifies specific mitigation activities with defined parties responsible, including DWSD's responsibility to communicate work locations two weeks in advance to coordinate necessary field inspections and HRD's designation of an Archaeology Compliance Specialist to oversee Section 106 compliance activities throughout the project duration.
The mitigation plan incorporates cultural resource protection protocols requiring an archaeologist to conduct inspections at required intervals, document field visits through Survey123, and respond to any unanticipated discoveries of cultural material or human remains. A Post Review Discoveries Plan is mandated for the duration of construction, with specific procedures requiring work stoppage and immediate notification to Melissa Owsiany (melissa.owsiany@detroitmi.gov) upon discovery of unanticipated tanks, evidence of contamination, artifacts, or bones. The plan also requires formal consultation with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and Consulting Tribes if necessary, with documentation requirements determined through additional consultation processes.
