3.3 INVASIVE SPECIES INSPECTIONS

A. Inspections for Invasive Species: In order to prevent the spread of invasive species within the park and adjacent lands, NPS personnel from the park will perform inspections of vehicles, equipment, machinery, cutting tools, base yards, staging areas, materials, material packaging, material deliveries, material storage, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Please permit safe unfettered access to inspection sites or items being inspected for the NPS inspectors.

Inspections for invasive species may include the following:

1. NPS inspectors will perform visual inspections for signs of invasive weeds and plants;

invasive pests such coqui frogs and frog eggs, little fire ants (LFA), and insects including termites; other vertebrae species such as rats, mice, and reptiles; and mud and dirt that may carry Rapid ‛Ōhi‛a Death (ROD).

2. NPS inspectors will test vehicles, equipment, and machinery for little fire ants (LFA) by placing chopsticks baited with a dab of peanut butter for 30 minutes to 1 hour. About six

(6) chopsticks (baits) will be used to test personal vehicles and trucks. Larger vehicles, equipment, and machinery may require up to 10-20 baits. Baits will be placed in the shade, inside the cab, engine compartment, and truck bed if applicable. Please note that baits are only good for detection and do not control ants. Baits will not be left in the vehicle for more than 1 hour as this may attract ants from beyond the area of concern.

3. NPS inspectors may employ the same method of testing (as outlined above in G.2) on materials, material packaging, material deliveries, and material storage to include soil, aggregate, and rock material from quarries or source locations, temporary facilities and BMP items employed to manage surface water drainage and erosion.

4. Any LFA found will be collected, bagged, and labeled for identifications by NPS inspectors (or NPS partners) and the vehicle will not be allowed to enter the park until it is cleaned, sanitized, and re-tested following a minimum 48-hour resting period.

5. Infested vehicles will be sanitized following recommendations by the Hawaii Ant Lab (http://www.littlefireants.com) or other ant control expert and in accordance with all State http://www.littlefireants.com/

PUHE #340780 WORK RESTRICTIONS (01 11 40) Page 4 of 6 and Federal laws and baited with a granular or liquid insecticide bait prior to re-entry to the park. Control records will be required to confirm treatment. Treatment is the responsibility of the Contractor.

6. The park reserves the right to conduct additional tests for little fire ants (LFA) at any time during the project or require deployment of preventative granular or liquid insecticide baits.

7. Note that vehicles, equipment, machinery, and cutting tools previously used on the Big Island of Hawai’i will not be approved for entry into Haleakala National Park on Maui, and vice versa (items used on Maui will not be permitted into parks on the Big Island).

5. Ensure no standing water on tarps or other construction surfaces as it may be a breeding ground for mosquitoes which may carry Dengue fever, avian malaria / flu, and other diseases.

6. Ensure loose nails, screws, and fasteners do not fall on the ground when working on exterior surfaces as these can be a hazard to T&E species. If they do land on the ground, pick them up immediately and dispose of them properly.

3.5 ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES

A. General: Archaeological resources are physical evidence of past human activity, including evidence of the effects of that activity on the environment. Archaeological resources are found above and below ground and underwater. Known archeological resources will be marked and flagged by the park. Do not disrupt known archaeological resources or flagged areas during construction activities. If required in Section 01 11 00, PART 1.2.D, the Contractor shall erect temporary barriers around the archaeological resource to help ensure avoidance. Temporary barriers shall be free-standing orange traffic delineator posts with grabber / looper tops and plastic rails (or a comparable barrier that does not involve digging but is an effective barrier). Submit a CM-16 with the proposed temporary barrier product for NPS approval.

The Contractor does not need to provide an Archaeological Monitor; however, the Contractor, or Contractor’s designee, will observe all ground-disturbing activities during earthwork and other construction operations. If the Contractor discovers archaeological resources, the Contractor shall stop work, notify the Contracting Officer immediately, and relocate to a non-sensitive area.

The park may have an Archaeological Monitor present at the jobsite who is authorized to stop work upon discovery of archaeological resources. Archaeological resources typically found in the park or at the project site will be discussed at the preconstruction meeting.
