1.5 GENERAL

A. The project’s Environmental Assessment (EA), entitled "Final Environmental Assessment, Flood

Control Improvements to the Rio Grande Canalization Project," dated December 2007, was prepared by USIBWC. The Contractor shall review and comply with the requirements provided in the EA document.

B. "USIBWC Rio Grande Canalization Project, River Management Plan," dated December 8, 2016, was prepared by USIBWC. The Contractor shall review and comply with the requirements provided in this document.

C. "Final Biological Opinion for US International Boundary and Water Commission Long-Term River

Management of the Rio Grande Canalization Project, New Mexico," dated August 16, 2017, was prepared by USIBWC. The Contractor shall review and comply with the requirements provided in this document.

D. USIBWC has a habitat restoration site adjacent to this project. The most recent report on this work is entitled "Monitoring Report for Riparian Habitat Restoration at Shalem Colony, Vinton A and B, and Valley Creek Restoration Sites," dated May 11, 2019.

E. These documents list environmentally and culturally sensitive areas that need to be protected from any disturbances of construction activities. The environmentally and culturally sensitive areas that were identified on the document are identified below.

1. Biological Resources

Work should be scheduled to occur outside of the bird breeding season whenever possible.

Migratory birds may be present within the project area; birds, nests, and eggs are to be protected and avoided during construction. The breeding and nesting season is identified in

Section 01.57.19. If work continues into the bird breeding/nesting season the areas proposed for disturbance shall be surveyed in order to avoid the inadvertent destruction of nests and eggs.

2. Natural Resources

Equipment cannot be parked, staged, or used under large, mature trees. Keeping equipment away from the large, mature trees will prevent incidental damage to the tree and prevent compression of the root ball.

F. Further details of environmental requirements are in Sections 01.57.00 and 01.57.19.

1.6 PRESERVATION OF CULTURAL AND NATURAL RESOURCES AND THE

ENVIRONMENT

A. If the Contractor initiates changes to the Contract and USIBWC approves the changes, the

Contractor is responsible for obtaining clearances and coordinating with the appropriate regulatory agencies.

B. Culturally Sensitive Areas

If a site, building, or location of historical, archaeological, educational, or scientific interest is discovered within the right of way, cease all work immediately, secure the site from further disturbance and possible vandalism, and notify USIBWC. The site, building, or location will be investigated and evaluated by USIBWC.

August 14, 2019 Environmental Information

USIBWC Solicitation 191BWC19B0001 00.31.24-Page 3

1.7 OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

The Contractor is required to ensure that all Environmental Permits, Issues, and Comments (EPIC), which are included within the Contract Documents are followed and implemented to ensure potential impacts are avoided.

1.8 NEPA DOCUMENTATION

The USIBWC shall complete appropriate NEPA documentation prior to the construction of the project.

The USIBWC will be responsible for compliance with National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

1.9 USE OF GEOLOGIC MATERIALS ON A FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECT

A. To ensure preservation of historical and archaeological data, prior to use of any soil, rock, or gravel, the source must first be compliance confirmed by the COR to ensure compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA).

B. Take no action to use or alter the proposed location until written approval for site use is received from the COR.

C. If the quarry or borrow site already provides materials for NMDOT, TxDOT, USACE, or other governmental agency, a copy of the environmental approvals from said agencies may be provided to the COR.

D. Include permission for Government access to any geological source locations.

E. Full details of requirements for geological materials are in Section 02.21.13.

1.4 GEOTECHNICAL REPORTS

A. Geotechnical analysis for this project was performed by Kenall, Inc. and summarized in their report entitled, "Sunland Park Levee Forensic Geotechnical Investigation," dated July 29, 2016.

B. Prior geotechnical analysis was performed by Raba-Kistner Consultants, Inc. and summarized in their report entitled, "Final Technical Memorandum Volume I for Geotechnical Explorations of

Levee System within the Rio Grande Canalization Project- Canutillo Levee Segment," both

Volumes I and II, dated December 22, 2008. Since significant work was been performed on the levee through 2012, the information in this report may no longer be valid. Contractors may request a pdf copy of this report from the Contracting Officer prior to bid or from the COR after award.

C. Assumptions made in the geotechnical information in regards to this project are contained in

Appendix B of the design report listed in Section 00.31.19..

D. The data and report are not intended as a representation or warranty of continuity of conditions between soil borings nor of groundwater levels at dates and times other than date and time when measured. Additional test borings and other exploratory operations may be made by Contractor subsequent to award of the Contract.

E. Due to the site location adjacent to the Rio Grande, groundwater levels may fluctuate, sometimes to extreme levels, based upon time of year and amount of water in the river. Higher groundwater levels than those shown in the bore logs may occur causing changes in soil saturation and strength.

F. The worksite is adjacent to the Rio Grande and is located in an area where the river flowed in the past. Fluvial deposits can change rapidly in type (sand, slit, clay, loam, gravel, rocks, etc.) both horizontally and vertically due to depositional characteristics and channel shifting. Rocks may be

Geotechnical Data August 14, 2019

00.31.32-Page 2 USIBWC Solicitation 191BWC19B0001 present even if not visible on the ground surface. Rocks larger than the borehole would not have been captured in any logging data.

G. The Contractor is charged with the duty to read and understand the geotechnical data provided, including any data referenced within. The Contractor shall consider all geotechnical information including geotechnical reports, bore logs, and site visits as a whole. The Contractor shall consider the limitations of any geotechnical tests performed including the auger size, borehole spacing and location, consistency of borehole data, as well as the frequency of testing, results of testing, and groundwater level at time.

3.1 USING USIBWC FORMS

A. Providing Fillable Forms to USIBWC

1. Fillable forms shall be "printed" prior to sending to USIBWC. Printing a fillable form to pdf fixes the form data permanently so it cannot be changed. It also allows the merging of multiple pdf files without compromising form data.

a. Printing resolution shall not be less than 400 dpi. 1200 dpi is preferred and easily handled by Adobe Acrobat.

Figure 9 - Fillable Form (not printed)

Figure 10 - Printed Fillable Form

B. Providing Adobe Electronic Signatures to USIBWC

Whenever an Adobe digital signature is used, ensure that the file is printed to pdf afterwards. This ensures that the digital signature is locked and cannot change, but is also allows the resulting file to be combined without pdf files without errors.
