About this file
This is a solicitation for a construction project to repair Natomas Reach A Levees. The project requires rebuilding and reinforcing approximately 3.5 miles of levees along the Sacramento River in Sacramento County, California. Bids are due on August 16, 2021. A mandatory site visit will be held on July 8, 2021 to review the project scope and requirements. Key work includes constructing a slurry wall cutoff, rebuilding adjacent levees, modifying two pumping plants, replacing drainage pipes, and repairing roads and infrastructure impacted by construction. The contract also includes three optional tasks for additional levee and utility work. The solicitation includes plans, specifications and other technical requirements for the full project scope.

1.3.14 SCR-14 Permits and Approvals
The Contracting Officer has obtained various permits, agreements, and rights for performance of the work. These permits may be described more fully in other SCRs and these specifications. The Contractor will be required to obtain additional permits or be a signatory on the Contracting Officer obtained permits as noted throughout the specifications, and be responsible for complying with all conditions of the permits and agreements. Any delays to the Project resulting from the Contractor's failure to follow permit requirements will not be the responsibility of the Contracting Officer and the Contractor will not be granted any extension of time for such delays.
Obtain all environmental permits or use permits (including CALTRANS Encroachment Permit, City/County Encroachment Permits, SMAQMD permits) required for access to land being used for the Contractor's own convenience and for work within the State Right of Way. Any delays to the Project resulting from the lack of these additional permits or the Contractor's failure to follow permit requirements will not be the responsibility of the Contracting Officer and the Contractor will not be granted any extension of time or additional compensation for such delays. Provide a copy of each permit obtained to the Contracting Officer within 10 days of receipt of permit. The contractor is responsible for paying all permit fees.
1.3.15 SCR-15 Dust Control
Comply with the provisions of Section 01 57 19 TEMPORARY ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS of the Specifications.

Contractor must receive approval of the plan before groundbreaking. During the performance of the work, Contractor assumes all responsibility for dust control and must furnish all labor, equipment, and means required, and must carry out proper and efficient measures wherever and as often as necessary to prevent the construction operations from producing dust in amounts harmful to persons, damaging to property, or causing a nuisance to persons living nearby or occupying buildings in the vicinity of the work, or as directed by the Contracting Officer. Dust control will be strictly enforced with particular emphasis on work areas adjacent to residential and agricultural properties. The curtailment of the construction activities as a result of inadequate dust control measures will not be considered an unavoidable delay. Suspend all grading operations when fugitive dust levels exceed levels specified by SMAQMD regulations or deemed unacceptable by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor is responsible for paying any fees assessed by SMAQMD.
1.3.16 SCR-16 Fire Control
No burning is allowed for any activities associated with this project.
Delivering removed vegetative material to compost or waste-to-energy facilities, or repurposing, is encouraged. Landfilling of material is to be avoided.

1.3.17 SCR-17 Air Pollution Control
Comply with the air pollution control protocols specified in Section 01 57 19 TEMPORARY ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS of the Specifications. To the extent available, use existing power sources for the Contractor-provided trailers rather than temporary power generators. If existing power sources are unavailable, clean fuel, low-emission on-site stationary generator equipment must be used. Low-sulfur fuel must be used for stationary construction equipment. Contractor is responsible for arranging appropriate consultation with the Air Resources Board and the SMAQMD, to determine registration and permitting requirements before operating portable engines or portable engine-driven equipment at the project site.
1.3.18 SCR-18 Noise Control
Comply with Section 01 57 19 TEMPORARY ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS of the Specifications to avoid and minimize noise impacts from the construction activities.
Before construction activity begins within 500 feet of one or more residences, provide written notification at least three days before to the potentially affected residents, identifying the type, duration, and frequency of activities.

The fencing must include signage no smaller than 3' x 3' in size providing the Contractor's company name as well as a name and telephone number for Contractor who may be contacted by the public in general in the event that any issues arise out of the use of the Project site.
All material remnants need to be removed from each staging area when use of the staging area ceases. If this is difficult to achieve with the manner in which the staging area is used and the types of materials to be stockpiled, a protective barrier between the ground surface and stockpiled materials must be used. Upon conclusion of the work, or prior to the time period that the use of the staging area must cease, whichever occurs first, Contractor must return the site to a condition equal to or better than the condition it was in at the time of the Contractor's entry into the site.
No stripping of existing ground is to be conducted at staging areas unless approved in advance by the Contracting Officer. In order to minimize adverse effects from temporary impacts at all staging areas, the Contractor must prepare and submit for approval by the Contracting Officer a proposed plan for restoration of temporarily impacted areas to pre-project conditions (e.g. a plan for re-vegetation for areas where vegetation would be removed or destroyed).
