Such facilities shall be made available when the first employees arrive on the site of the work, shall be properly secluded from public observation, and shall be constructed and maintained during the progress of the work in suitable numbers and at such points and in such manner as may be required.

The Contractor shall maintain the sanitary facilities in a satisfactory and sanitary condition at all times and shall enforce their use. He shall rigorously prohibit the committing of nuisances on the site of the work, on the lands of the City or on adjacent property.

He shall conduct and schedule his operations so as to avoid or otherwise minimize pollution or siltation of streams, lakes and reservoirs and to avoid interference with movement of migratory fish. Where there is a high potential for erosion and subsequent water pollution, the Contractor shall not expose, by construction operations, except as necessary for efficient construction operations, and the duration of exposure of the uncompleted construction to the elements shall be as short as practicable.

Erosion control features shall be constructed concurrently with other work and at the earliest practicable time.
