Examples of typical Contractor Provided Permits are: National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Construction Permit (ground disturbance), dewatering permit, permit for work in a roadway (with traffic management plan), temporary utility tap permit, etc.

C. Government Furnished (GF) Permits: Obtained by National Park Service (NPS), usually through the Architect/Engineer (A/E) or a consultant, during the design process (Predesign (PD) through Construction Documents (CD)) and are usually concerned with impacts to resources protected by federal law. However, GF permits can include other permits that are obtained for the convenience

KNRI 257081 01 31 00 - 2

of the Government during design. GF permits are "furnished" to the Contractor in the Request for Proposal (RFP) and as part of the final contract documents. The Contractor must comply with GF permit provisions. Examples of typical GF permits: Clean Water Act (CWA) 404 dredge and fill permit, CWA Water Quality Certification (often state administered), Highway Right-of-Way Permit, etc.
