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 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 test 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 at Haleakala National Park on Maui, and vice versa (items used on Maui will not be permitted in parks on the Big Island).

I. Inspection Scheduling / Protocol: If inspections for invasive species are required, the Contractor shall adhere to the following protocol:

1. The Contractor’s construction schedule shall identify the date of project mobilization as well as the preferred date(s) for invasive species inspections in advance of mobilization.

2. The name and contact information for the NPS primary and backup inspectors will be identified at the time of the preconstruction meeting and documented in the meeting notes.

3. Formal requests for inspections shall be made by the Contractor directly to the NPS inspector(s) via the inspector’s contact information.

4. Requests for the initial inspection(s) prior to mobilization shall be made at least three (3) days in advance of the inspection date.

5. Once the project is underway, inspections will be performed daily as needed (typically early morning) at the park’s preferred inspection site for the duration of the contract.

6. Inspection requests outside the pre-established days and times will be performed at the discretion and availability of the inspectors.

7. Inspections shall occur at the park’s preferred inspection sites identified below:

a. At Hawaii Volcanoes National Park – At the gravel pull-out area along Highway 11 across from the Old Volcano Road or other location as determined by inspector.

http://www.littlefireants.com/ http://www.littlefireants.com/ http://www.biisc.org/ https://cms.ctahr.hawaii.edu/rod http://www.biisc.org/

b. At Haleakala National Park – Usually the port of origin or loading (depends on the location of the work). The inspector will go over the park’s Inspection Checklist with the Contractor. The Contractor must present a copy of the Inspection Checklist at the entrance station (signed by the inspector) to enter the park. See checklist.

c. At Kalaupapa National Historical Park – At the Kalaupapa pier after barge delivery of items. If invasive species are found, they may be quarantined until such time that they can be treated by the Contractor per Section 01 11 40, PART 3.2.H, or, sent back to Oahu on the barge at the Contractor’s expense.

d. At Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park – At the gravel pull-out area along Queen Kaahumanu Highway directly across from the entrance to the park visitor center (subject to change as this area may be further developed by the County).

e. At Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park – At the paved scenic pull-out along Highway mauka of the park entrance.

f. At Pu’ukohola Heiau National Historic Site – Outside the park, TBD by inspector.

g. For all other Pacific Island parks, inspections are not required but the Contractor must still employ invasive species prevention measures.

8. Inspections of soil, aggregate, or rock materials may occur at the quarry or source location at the park’s discretion.

9. If a re-inspection is required, the Contractor shall clean and sanitize the item thoroughly. A re-inspection for a rejected item cannot be scheduled for at least 48 hours.

3.3 THREATENED & ENDANGERED SPECIES (T&E SPECIES)

A. General: Threatened & Endangered Plant and Animal Species are protected by Federal law. Workers must obey all park regulations and drivers must obey all traffic laws and watch for animals on or alongside roads or within the project area. Contact NPS Dispatch at: (808) 985- 6170 immediately if an animal is hit or injured or will not move off the road.

B. General Mitigations: Within the project area, the following mitigation measures are required to minimize disturbance to T&E species:

1. The project area shall be cleaned-up at the end of each work shift so that tools, materials, debris, and trash are not left out in a manner that could be a hazard to T&E species.

2. Noise and vibrations from tools and equipment shall be kept to a minimum when working in the vicinity of a listed T&E species.

3. Hazmat spill prevention protocols shall be employed when using gas-powered equipment.

4. Tarps shall be used to contain all paint chips and building debris from exterior surfaces as these can be hazards to listed T&E species.

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.

C. Requirements for Specific T&E Species: The following are requirements for specific T&E species in the Hawaii national parks (delete those that are not applicable to the project).

1. Nēnē (Hawaiian goose) - Nēnē are frequently spotted along the roadside at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (HAVO) and Haleakala National Park (HALE) and do not readily move when approached by cars. If there is a Nēnē on the road, drivers must stop and allow the Nēnē to move away on its own. Drivers should be aware that Nēnē may suddenly appear on the road from low brush and to be especially attentive of this on foggy and/or rainy days. In general, do not approach Nēnē and keep at least 60 feet away. Due to Nēnē breeding, construction activities may be limited Haleakala National Park (HALE) during the windows outlined below. Construction activities projected to occur during this window may not be permitted, or, may require additional mitigations measures. Refer also to “Working Around Endangered Birds.”

• Haleakala National Park (HQ Area only) - Nēnē breeding: From October 15 to April 15.

2. Other T&E Plants & Forest Birds – Prior to construction start, the park may survey the project area for threatened and endangered plants & forest birds (and their nests) and flag a buffer zone for protection.

Avoid flagged nest areas during construction activities.

D. Requirements for Other Species of Concern: The following are requirements for other species of concern in the Hawaii national parks (delete if not applicable to the project).

1. ‛Ōhi‛a Trees - Avoid wounding ‘ōhi‘a trees and roots with mowers, chainsaws, weed eaters, and other tools. Cut only a minimum amount of trees and branches as approved by the Contracting Officer and avoid making jagged cuts or stripping bark. Treat the cut, standing sections of ‘ōhi‘a with a wound sealant such as Spectracide Pruning Seal. Wound sealants other than Spectracide Pruning Seal will require review and approval by the Contracting Officer prior to use. ‘Ōhi‘a firewood, ‘ōhi‘a logs, ‘ōhi‘a parts, and ANY other cut vegetation, organic matter, or green waste that is not part of the project scope may not be brought into the park. All non-‘ōhi‘a firewood and logs imported into the park must be sourced from a park approved site free of invasive weeds and plants, invasive pests, and ROD.

3.4 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 necessary, the Contractor will erect temporary barriers around the archaeological resource to ensure avoidance. 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.

3.5 SOUNDSCAPE / NOISE

A. General: The Contractor shall minimize noise levels at the project site to protect the soundscape of the park and minimize noise to staff, visitors, neighbors, and habitat. Perform operations to minimize noise. Perform noise-producing work in less sensitive hours of the day or week or as directed by the Contracting Officer. Repetitive and/or intermittent, high-level noise is permitted only during daytime hours. If the Contractor exceeds the thresholds below, the Contractor may be required to stop work, temporarily relocate to a non-sensitive area, or adjust the construction means and methods at no additional expense to the Government.

1. Maximum permissible construction equipment noise at 50 feet:

EARTHMOVING dB(A) MATERIALS HANDLING dB(A) Front Loaders 75 Concrete Mixers 75 Backhoes 75 Concrete Pumps 75 Dozers 75 Cranes 75 Tractors 75 Derricks Impact 75 Scrapers 80 Pile Drivers 95 Graders 75 Jack Hammers 75 Trucks 75 Rock Drills 80 Pavers, Stationary 80 Pneumatic Tools 80 Pumps 75 Saws 75 Generators 75 Vibrators 75 Compressors 75

2. Do not exceed the following dB(A) limitations at 50 feet:

TIME DURATION OF IMPACT NOISE dB(A)

More than 12 minutes in any hour 70 More than 3 minutes in any hour 80

3.6 AIR QUALITY (INDOOR & OUTDOOR)

A. General: The Contractor shall minimize the negative impacts to indoor and outdoor air quality as a result of their operations. This may include:

1. Control of emissions from vehicles or heavy equipment.

2. Control of fumes, vapors, or gases from products or packaging.

3. Control of particulates and dust from indoor operations such as cutting and sanding.

4. Control of particulates and dust from outdoor operations.

5. Control of moisture during operations that may lead to damage, fumes, or mold.

B. Mitigations: The Contractor shall mitigate for negative impacts to indoor and outdoor air quality as a result of their operations. This may include:

1. Ensure vehicles and heavy equipment do not idle when not in use.

2. Ensure proper ventilation and air movement of indoor spaces.

3. Install temporary mechanical ventilation where appropriate.

4. Ensure tools are equipped with the proper guards or particulate catchment devices.

5. Ensure particulates and debris are collected and disposed of on a regular basis.

6. Consider water trucks or temporary irrigation devises for dust control on unpaved surfaces.

7. Ensure products are properly dried or cured prior to advancing the work.

8. Ensure materials are stored in a dry location.

9. Ensure wet / damp materials are not installed or covered.

END OF SECTION 01 11 40

Commercial Pre-Inspection Checklist (Updated 02/20/2019)

Passing an invasive species inspection REQUIRES the removal of all organic matter including, but not limited to:

Dirt, mud, sand, seeds, insects, spider webs, live or dead animals, grass, manure, etc.

1) The truck or load-bearing vehicle must not be loaded prior to inspection in a way that prevents inspection of the contents. Please keep the load and vehicle separate at the designated inspection time to facilitate the process. Not doing so will delay your inspection.

2) The inspector must have full access to the vehicle. A vehicle that is actively being loaded for another project or contract cannot be adequately inspected. The inspector must have unobstructed access to the drivers cab, the wheel wells, engine compartment, attached toolboxes, etc.

3) The inspector will require a valid Special Park Use (SPU) or other permit issued by Haleakalā National Park before commencing inspection. A SPU without an inspector’s signature and clearance dates is not a valid permit and will be rejected at the entrance station.

Wash or powerwash vehicle inside and out

Vacuum interior, under seats and floor mats, door compartments, inside glove box, etc.

Clean wheel wells, checking mud flaps and inside of front and rear bumper for dirt and debris

Clean engine compartment: radiator, air filter, area beneath air filter, space between rubber seal and windshield

Truck beds: empty completely and wash thoroughly, under and inside tool box, any holes on racks

Low-boys, heavy equipment: tracks must be cleaned of debris, (it is understood that some rocks may be lodged in tracks), space beneath and underneath tracks, buckets, etc. all need to be cleaned

Surveying equipment, containers, ladders, delineators, etc: the base that sits on the ground must be cleaned, equipment must be removed from bags and cases, bags and cases must be cleaned

Raw materials from quarries/base yards: Needs to be fresh crush or cut, if the material has been sitting for greater than 1 day, the pile will have to be inspected and monitored while loaded

ANY vehicle, equipment, fabric, load, substrate (rocks or fill), soil, or other material that has been used or originates from the Big Island of Hawaii is banned from Haleakalā National Park due to the risk of spreading
