Fort Drum offers EMS General Awareness Training in the form of a printed Handout. All Contractors and their employees are required to be made aware of EMS General Awareness Training and to post an EMS handout so that it is available to all employees. Contractors are also responsible for ensuring all subcontractors hired on their behalf receive EMS General Awareness Training handouts and that they are posted at the subcontractor’s site.

If work in wetlands is unavoidable, equipment mats must be used and removed immediately upon completion of work in wetlands.
All wetland boundaries will be physically marked in the field in such a way that provides a visible barrier to all personnel and equipment operators. All boundary line markers will be maintained throughout the duration of the contract and removed upon final inspection.
All clearing in wetlands not permitted for fill will be accomplished using hand tools and all material cut will be left in place, unless it can be removed by non-ground disturbing machinery, or if possible, through felling and removal by non-ground disturbing machinery. In either case, grubbing will not be allowed.

Actions on Fort Drum, must be in accordance with requirements negotiated with the US Fish & Wildlife Service under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. Projects involving ANY habitat modification (e.g., vegetation removal) must be addressed by Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program. In general, no trees greater than 3 inches (diameter breast height) may be cut from 16 April - 15 October to avoid any direct adverse effects to these bats. Clearing of natural vegetation (e.g., shrubs and trees) less than 3 inches diameter breast height (DBH) should typically occur between August 1 and April 15 annually to minimize the impact to migratory birds and to maintain foraging areas for bats. The contractor (and all subcontractors) shall be responsible for coordination with Fort Drum's Fish & Wildlife Management Program to ensure compliance with the Endangered Species Act and all other applicable laws and regulations pertaining to wildlife. Overall the contractor (and all subcontractors) shall minimize interference with, disturbance to, and damage to plants, fish, wildlife, and their habitats on and adjacent to the project area.
Flagging or signs must be used to demarcate construction limits of a given project prior to any construction activity, vegetation, and/or tree clearing. Clearing must only occur within the flagged area, and flagging must be removed upon completion of the project.
If any bats are discovered during the demolition or repair of buildings (to include work such as complete and partial building demolition, removal/replacement of roofs, siding, etc.), all work must cease and Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program (315-772-4999 or 315-772-9636) must be immediately contacted. If the building has pre-existing known bat colonies, then Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program must be contacted before demolition is to occur. (At this time, the only structures known to contain bat colonies are within the historic LeRay Area.).
All bats found must be immediately reported to Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program (315-772-4999 or 315-772-9636). Do not attempt to handle any live bats, regardless of condition. If a live bat is found in a building please contact 315-772-2072 or 315- 772-4999.
Light minimization measures are to be incorporated for all exterior lighting that may include but are not limited to full cutoffs, reflectors, shields, downward angling of lights and/or reduction of correlated color temperatures to reduce blue-rich, white light. Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program must be contacted for detailed requirements that must be followed to the maximum extent possible.
No night lighting for construction projects is authorized without prior coordination and authorization from the project manager and Fort Drum's Fish and Wildlife Management Program.
Project planning and design should attempt to minimize building footprints by combining infrastructure (i.e. roads, utility lines, etc.) for multiple buildings or by constructing multi-story versus multiple or expanded single story buildings whenever possible.
Pesticide usage shall be in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local requirements. Fort Drum requirements can be located, in part, within the most recent Fort Drum Endangered Species Act Implementing Document.
