1. Notify Contracting Officer not less than two days in advance of proposed utility interruptions.

2. Do not proceed with utility interruptions without Contracting Officer’s written permission.

1.10 SPECIAL CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS

A. Any work that involves river work or ramp closures that alters river flow or travel of river users will require prior approval by the CO. Notify CO 10 days prior to anticipated river work that alters river flow or travel of river users.

B. Prior to construction, verify with Park if the yellow-billed cuckoo was detected in the project area.

If detected, the Park will need to consult with USFS to establish additional conservation measures to ensure the yellow-billed cuckoo is not adversely affected. Contractor shall coordinate with the Park to verify if additional conservation measures are required prior to construction.

C. Hours of work may be determined by the park to avoid construction disturbance to visitors, park residents, or wildlife.

D. Maintain a safe construction zone. Fence around open holes when personnel are not present and provide for a slope out of the hole such that wildlife trapped in the excavation may be able to escape.

E. Control dust during construction by minimizing soil exposure, watering, and using other dust prevention measures.

F. Dispose of construction and/or demolition debris (e.g., old water lines, appurtenances, water tanks, valves, packaging materials, trash) at appropriate areas designated by the park. When possible, debris will be disposed of at a materials recycling facility.

G. All project zones will be kept trash free at all times.

H. To minimize the amount of ground disturbance, staging and stockpiling areas will be located in previously disturbed sites, away from visitor use areas to the extent possible. All staging and stockpiling areas shall be returned to pre-construction conditions following project completion.

Parking of construction vehicles will be limited to these staging areas, existing roads, and previously disturbed areas.

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 5

I. Identify and define construction zones with construction tape, snow fencing, or other material prior to any construction activity. Use the zone to confine activity to the minimum area required for construction. Construction activities, including material staging and storage, cannot occur beyond the construction zone fencing.

J. A traffic control plan for use during construction as approved by the Park will be developed and enforced to minimize disruption to visitors and park operations and to ensure safety of the public, park employees, and residents.

K. Contractors will coordinate with park staff to minimize disruption of normal park activities.

L. Avoid rutting or excessive soil compaction caused by vehicles or equipment. Construction activities shall be restricted during saturated soil conditions or severe weather conditions to avoid damage to soils and vegetation. In the event of adverse weather conditions, the project leader will consult with the SRM Vegetation Branch (307-739-3678) to ensure that ground conditions are acceptable for project activities.

M. To minimize the amount of ground disturbance, locate staging and stockpiling areas in previously disturbed sites to the extent possible. Return all staging and stockpiling areas to pre-construction conditions following construction.

N. To minimize soil loss/erosion at the project site, erosion control best management practices (BMPs) including protection measures such as sediment traps, silt fences, erosion check screens/filters, jute mesh, will be used if necessary, to prevent the loss of soil.

O. Topsoil should be salvaged at the beginning of all ground disturbance activities by scraping the topsoil to the side prior to deeper digging. Topsoil refers to the uppermost layers of soil and includes fine particles, small roots, rocks, and cobbles. It is usually darker in color and is the layer in which the majority of roots grow and beneficial microorganisms exist. It is usually the top 2-6 inches.

Conserving topsoil will minimize impacts to vegetation and help preserve valuable micro-organisms and the native seed bank.

P. Store salvaged topsoil separately from other materials. Limit the height of topsoil stockpiles to 36 inches. Do not stockpile topsoil or subsoil within drip line of remaining trees. Excess soil will be stored only at approved locations.

Q. Replace topsoil and other excavated soils and rock in the proper order, cobble lowest, then subsoil, then topsoil. Use a trench box if one is needed to reduce disturbance. Spread topsoil as near to the original location as possible to a depth of 4 inches. Imported topsoil may be necessary. Contractor shall use weed free topsoil from Terra Firma, Jackson, WY or approved equal.

R. During the final stages of project implementation, scarify and loosen compacted subsoils to a minimum depth of 12 inches prior to replacing the salvaged topsoil. Soil decompaction will be done with equipment that has ripping teeth, placed a maximum of 12 inches apart.

S. Do not drive or operate equipment on newly replaced topsoil. Do not re-enter the project site once revegetation/restoration work has been initiated and/or completed.

T. To reduce noise and pollution emissions, construction equipment and all motor vehicles will not idle any longer than is necessary.

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 6

U. Ensure that motorized vehicles and equipment have properly functioning mufflers.

V. Coordinate all vegetation project work with park vegetation specialists regarding invasive, non-native plant (weed) treatments, revegetation requirements, costs, and scheduling. Contact the SRM Vegetation Branch (307-739-3678).

W. Limit ground disturbance to the smallest area possible to reduce disturbance to soil and native plants and reduce the potential for the introduction and/or spread of non-native, invasive plant species.

X. To reduce the threat of nonnative, invasive vegetation being introduced to the park, all imported material (i.e., sand, gravel, rock, rip-rap, etc.) must be obtained from a park approved or county weed district approved source. Teton County Weed and Pest has currently approved as weed-free the various Evans Construction pits in Teton County. If a new material source is requested, park vegetation staff will seek county-approved material source pits and/or perform a nonnative, invasive plant inspection.

Y. Material sources, including sand, gravel, rock, rip-rap, mulch, etc. that is not attained form a county or park approved weed-free material sources must be precooked (300 degrees) or washed to prevent spread on invasive weeds in the park.

Z. If a material source does not have an approval for weed-free, or if a material source fails an inspection, then the material must be clean of weed seed materials and dirt debris before entering the park. That typically entails cooking material such as sand and gravel to 300 degrees F. For larger rock and rip-rap, the rock can be separated from smaller dirt materials, and washed prior to entering the park.

AA. All vehicles and equipment shall arrive at the job site in a condition free of mud, dirt, and plant material. A method such as pressure washing prior to transport will be needed to comply with this requirement. Prior to offloading of any equipment, inspection and verbal approval must be obtained from the park resource management representative or delegated representative. The spread of non-native, invasive plant species in the park is a serious concern, and no equipment will be allowed to offload or remain within the park if dirt or other contaminants with the potential to harbor seeds or other plant material is apparent.

BB. Vegetation beyond the estimated scope of disturbance shall not be damaged or removed without prior approval via the project documents or by park vegetation management staff.

CC. Avoid destruction of individuals or populations of sensitive plant species or alteration of their habitat when conducting ground disturbing activities. SRM vegetation staff will notify project managers of rare or sensitive plant species for project documents prior to initiation of activities.

DD. Preserve existing trees to the extent possible, and during trenching operations, avoid damaging the roots of nearby trees.

EE. Tree/ Slash Removal - When trees are felled as part of project right of way clearing, remove all tree parts greater than 3” in diameter from the site except those pieces (“slash”) needed for revegetation or reclamation of the disturbance. The limbs, tops, and miscellaneous residue left by forest thinning and pruning activities are commonly called slash.

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 7

FF. Tree/ Slash Removal - Tree parts (slash) under 3" in diameter (not chips) may be "lopped and scattered" into adjacent forested vegetation so that it is 6 inches or less in depth measured immediately after treatment. No chipping shall be allowed.

GG. Stumps resulting from tree removal shall be flush cut level with the ground or removed.

HH. Work that includes influence or direct disturbance to a wetland or stream should not be conducted during fish spawning periods. Spawning phenology by species is dependent on location of waterway, so please contact the SRM Fish and Wildlife Branch Fisheries Biologist (307-739-3666) for specifics.

II. To prevent introduction of terrestrial or aquatic invasive species, all equipment, including rubber-tired land and tracked land vehicles, construction and facility equipment, watercraft, and personal use equipment such as diving gear, must be thoroughly cleaned, and inspected by park personnel before being operated or launched in the park.

JJ. Unless otherwise noted (i.e., elk rutting and near sage grouse leks), limit routine construction activities to 30 minutes after sunrise to 30 minutes prior to sunset to avoid disturbance to wildlife.

KK. All project activities must comply with GRTE’s Superintendent’s Compendium (2016 and as updated) regulations related to food storage and park recommended best management practices for living and working in bear country. Bear “attractants” include food, drinks, garbage, cooking utensils, dirty / soiled pots/pans/plates, stoves, grills (charcoal or gas), empty or full coolers, storage containers with food or previously holding food (except approved bear resistant canisters), beverage containers, pet food/bowls, and any odorous item that may attract a bear such as toiletries.

LL. At all times in all locations, including the backcountry, all staff (NPS, Volunteers-in-Parks (VIPs), contractors, etc.) must ensure that all bear attractants are attended at all times. All unattended attractants must be stored securely inside a building, a bear resistant food storage locker (if available), in a hard sided vehicle with doors locked and windows closed, or in an Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee (IGBC) approved portable bear resistant food storage canisters; or disposed of properly in a bear-resistant garbage receptacle. Backpacks and/or daypacks containing unsecured attractants (i.e. not in a canister) must not be left unattended.

MM. All personnel must attend a briefing on proper food/attractant storage and bear safety presented by a qualified member of the park's bear management team or their designee. Please contact the park's Bear Management Office (307-739-3673) at least two weeks prior to the desired start date to schedule a briefing.

NN. All human-bear conflicts must be reported to Teton Interagency Dispatch Center immediately (307- 739-3301). All bear sightings must be reported to the park’s Bear Management Office (307-739- 3673) within 24 hours.

OO. Provide for proper storage and disposal of materials that may be toxic to bears. All potentially toxic attractants, including petroleum products, must be stored or disposed of in such a way that they are not available to bears.

PP. Construction debris must be separated from human food garbage and disposed of in dumpsters that can be closed at night. No open dumpsters are allowed. A request for an exception to the open dumpster stipulation, however, can be made to the project manager who will consult with the park’s Bear Management Office to determine if such use will be authorized. The use of open dumpsters

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 8

will only be considered if the following conditions can be met: the open dumpster must be stored behind a locked fence out of view and inaccessible to the public, will be labeled construction debris only, and be inspected daily to ensure that no human food garbage is in the dumpster.

QQ. For all projects occurring within the Grizzly Bear Primary Conservation Area (PCA), coordinate with the Bear Management Office (307-739-3673) to ensure that all project activities comply with habitat standards in the Final Conservation Strategy for the Grizzly Bear in the Greater Yellowstone Area (USFWS 2016, http://igbconline.org/yellowstone-subcommittee/), and to the extent practicable, that projects occurring in occupied grizzly bear habitat outside of the PCA adhere to the spirit of standards in the Final Conservation Strategy (USFWS 2016).

RR. Conservation recommendations (CR) provide in the USFWS 2016 biological opinion on the Historic Properties Management Plan to protect minimize or avoid effects to grizzly bear:

1. CR1. Minimize human interaction and potential grizzly bear mortality by continuing the Park’s hazing strategies to prevent grizzly bears from becoming habituated to human residences.

2. CR2. Grizzly bears concentrate in certain areas during specific time periods to take advantage of concentrated food sources or because the area provides a high seasonal food value due to diversity in vegetation and plant phenology (e.g., important spring or fall range). Where grizzly bear use is known or likely to occur and where practicable, delay disturbing activities during the spring in spring habitats to minimize displacement of grizzly bears.

3. CR3. Manage building construction/removal and other activities in a manner that will minimize noise and visual disturbances and facilitate safe movement through habitat by grizzly bears.

4. CR4. Control speed, traffic, and parking to minimize negative impacts to grizzly bear activity, including active enforcement of speed limits.

SS. All project activities will adhere to all relevant conservation measures outlined in the Lynx Conservation Assessment and Strategy (USFWS revised 2013). In particular, harvest of trees on site for the proposed activities within Lynx Analysis Units and/or in Critical Lynx Habitat will not be authorized without further review and analysis in consultation with USFWS.

TT. All project activities will comply with GRTE’s Superintendent’s Compendium (2016 and as updated) closures implemented around wolf den/rendezvous sites. Should a den or rendezvous site not previously known be found within 1 mile of the proposed activity a seasonal area closure would be implemented as needed, typically between 15 April and 15 August.

UU. Avoid construction, maintenance, or other disturbing activities in crucial ungulate winter ranges (15 December to 15 April) and in identified ungulate parturition ranges (15 May - 30 June). See mitigation reference maps.

VV. Fencing (including temporary fencing for construction projects and permanent fencing) used in projects will comply with wildlife friendly fencing standards. Consult with the SRM Fish and Wildlife Branch Ungulate Biologist (307-739-3488) for assistance with specifications and appropriate design.

WW. For all herbicide applications, to the extent possible please conform to best management practices for wildlife. This includes following MSDS label instructions and avoiding sensitive times/areas for wildlife (e.g. bird nesting, fawning, den sites, bloom periods for pollinators).

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 9

XX. All wildlife-vehicle collisions must be reported to Teton Interagency Dispatch as soon as possible.

Care will be taken not to disturb any wildlife species (amphibians, reptiles, migratory birds, mammals, raptors, or bats) found nesting, hibernating, estivating (in an inactive dormant state during hot, dry periods), or otherwise living in, or immediately nearby, worksites.

YY. Prior to work in or near wetlands or waterways the area will be assessed for its importance to amphibian species and prohibitions and limitations shall be set in order to protect these species.

ZZ. Care will be taken not to disturb any wildlife species (amphibians, reptiles, migratory birds, mammals, raptors, or bats) found nesting, hibernating, estivating (in an inactive dormant state during hot, dry periods), or otherwise living in, or immediately nearby, worksites.

AAA. Prior to work in or near wetlands or waterways the area will be assessed for its importance to amphibian species and prohibitions and limitations shall be set in order to protect these species.

BBB. All project activities must comply with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 (MBTA; 16 U.S.C.

703) and Executive Oder 13186. Under the MBTA, it is illegal to "take" migratory birds, their eggs, feathers or nests. “Take” is defined (50 CFR 10.12) to include “pursuing, hunting, shooting, wounding, killing, trapping, capturing, or collecting.” The MBTA does not distinguish between “intentional” and “unintentional” take. Migratory birds include songbirds, waterfowl, shorebirds, and raptors. All project activities must also comply with GRTE’s Superintendent’s Compendium (2016 and as updated) seasonal closure regulations for raptors, trumpeter swans, great blue herons, and other sensitive bird species.

1. In general, park biologists recommend that to prevent impacts to nesting migratory birds and to avoid project delays, schedule work involving vegetation clearing, tree felling, fill placement, excavation, or other construction activities for outside of the nesting season.

The breeding season is generally as follows for migratory songbirds (1 May to 1 August), or as dictated by nesting chronology.

2. Before commencement of any activities that involve removal or manipulation of vegetation including large trees, grasses, and shrubs during the breeding season (see above) contact park biologists to schedule a survey for nesting birds. Surveys must be conducted by qualified personnel before tree removal and/or ground disturbing activities begin. To the extent possible, schedule surveys prior to 1 March the year of the proposed work.

3. Inspect hazard trees for potential nest sites. Fell hazard trees that may contain nests outside the breeding season, if possible, unless there is an imminent threat to human health and safety.

4. Work must be completed within two weeks of the nesting bird survey. If this is not possible, another survey must be scheduled with park biologists.

5. Active bird nests located during surveys will be protected until nestlings fledge or the nest fails. Park biologists will monitor nests, determine mitigations, and provide updates to the project leader on nesting status.

6. It is the responsibility of staff to report any nesting bird activity in the vicinity of proposed activity to park biologists in a timely way so that they may assess whether additional mitigation measures are needed to comply with the MBTA.

CCC. Eagles are specifically protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act of 1940 (16 U.S.C.

668-668c) and the MBTA. Project activities must not lead to the take of bald or golden eagles. The Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act defines “take” to include disturbing birds.

1. Implement seasonal closures (typically February 1 to August 15) of ½ mile (GYBEMP 1989, USFWS 2007) around occupied bald eagle nests and prohibit work on or occupancy of area within the closures while they are in effect.

GRTE - 219434 01 11 00 - 10

2. It is the responsibility of the staff to report any eagle activity in the vicinity of proposed activity to park biologists in a timely way so that they may assess whether additional mitigation measures are needed to comply with the BGEPA and MBTA.

DDD. All project activities must comply with GRTE’s Superintendent’s Compendium (2016 and as updated) closure regulations for sage-grouse leks and to the extent practicable all project activities occurring within occupied sage-grouse habitat within the core sage-grouse area will apply the management direction and conservation measures outlined in the Wyoming Governor's Executive Order 2015-4 and the Upper Snake River Basin Sage-Grouse Conservation Plan (2014).

1. Continue to implement a seasonal closure (generally 15 March – 1 June) around the Moulton sage-grouse lek.

2. Prohibit removal of shrub-steppe habitat within 4 miles of an occupied sage-grouse lek to protect breeding, nesting, and brood rearing habitat for sage-grouse in the park (generally between March 15 and June 30, or as recommended by park biologists monitoring sage-grouse). Exceptions may be made on a limited and case-by-case basis.

3. Limit new permanent facilities (including, but not limited to roads, buildings, well pads, pipelines, leach fields, and vegetation treatments) within 0.6 miles of active sage-grouse lek areas.

4. Efforts will be made to minimize disturbance to mature sagebrush cover in identified winter concentration areas.

5. Power or other utility lines should be buried when possible. If such lines cannot be buried, lines should be raptor proofed and located at least 0.6 miles from the perimeter of occupied sage-grouse leks. New transmission lines should be authorized or conducted only when it can be demonstrated that the activity will not cause declines in sage-grouse populations.

Construction of new transmission lines should occur July 1 and March 14. Power lines should be placed along or adjacent to existing long-term linear disturbance features whenever possible.

6. Park biologists will use the Wyoming Density and Disturbance Calculation Tool (DDCT) to assess activities that involve vegetation or ground disturbance within the sage-grouse core area that correspond with recommended mitigations for sage-grouse and their habitat.

EEE. Substantial Completion will be issued for the project in its entirety (not sequenced).

3. Include all equipment and labor rates with the bid proposal and they will be incorporated in the contract.

4. Requests for extensions of contract time as a result of this change must be justified with a Time Impact Analysis (TIA). Refer to Division 01 Specification, “Construction Schedule”, for time impact analysis requirements. TIA and associated costs must be received with the proposal by the date shown within the Request for Proposal letter.

Contractor’s failure to submit within the specified time frame will be construed as the Contractor waiving the right for additional time and no time extension will be allowed.

5. All supporting documentation used to justify the proposed modification will be made available to the Contracting Officer upon request.

6. Contractor must review and approve all subcontractor/supplier pricing in detail for proper format, scope, production rates, and pricing prior to submission to the NPS. All delay costs associated with not reviewing and approving subcontractor/supplier pricing will be borne by the Contractor.

7. All pricing and production rates within the estimate must be based on fair and reasonable pricing and cannot include built-in contingency.

B. Labor:

1. Contractor shall estimate the cost of labor by itemizing each craft involved, indicating worker hourly rate (base rate + labor burden + fringe benefits) for each and itemizing the hours required for each craft that will be directly engaged in modification work.

Mobilization, if applicable, may be included for equipment solely used on the modification work but must be listed separately.

5. Estimate the full rate for equipment only for the duration that the equipment will be utilized to accomplish the work of the modification.

6. Standby unit rates used are to be in accordance with paragraph 1.3, D, 2, above. If the US Army Corp of Engineers is utilized then their standby rates prevail. If Bluebook or local equipment pricing is accepted, then ½ of the equipment costs minus any operating costs, major repair and overhaul will be accepted.

7. If equipment is in standby mode due solely to a documented NPS delay, the established standby rate shall apply from the first day of the delay.

8. Equipment that is not used and on the jobsite for up to five consecutive days may be classified at standby rates, provided that the equipment is or has been used solely to perform work on the modification and will be necessary to complete additional modification work. Equipment that is still on the jobsite but not in use after five consecutive days will not be considered in the modification pricing.

9. Requests for compensation for equipment stand by time must be justified, documented and itemized separately.

10. The estimated timeframe (daily, weekly, monthly) for use of the equipment must reflect the lowest cost to the Government.
