Amendment A002 July 25, 2013

E-15

Obtain a separate NPDES permit associated with industrial activity for any mobile asphalt and concrete plants that provide material for the project. Provide a copy of the permit and acknowledgement letter to the CO for their records.

(b) Preparation of SWPPP. The Government has prepared a preliminary SWPPP for the project and determined the project is Risk Level 1 2. Designate a Qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD) certified by the State of California to update the preliminary SWPPP for the project or develop a new SWPPP and provide to the CO for review. When the SWPPP is approved and signed by the CO, QSD, and Contractor, it will be the document in force on the project. Provide an electronic copy of the approved SWPPP to the CO for inclusion in permit registration documents. Implement the SWPPP as required throughout the construction period.

Retain the QSD for the duration of the project to write and approve amendments to the SWPPP.

The QSD may modify the erosion and sediment control details and layout sheets included in the plans, as necessary, to address project site conditions and proposed construction operations.

Submit changes to CO for approval and include the changes in the SWPPP.

Register at least one person on the project with the Stormwater Multiple Application and Report Tracking System (SMARTS). Provide the registered person’s username information to the CO for designation as a data submitter for the project in the SMARTS system. Additional data submitters, such as laboratories, may also be provided to the CO, if necessary. Submit the Annual Report in the SMARTS system as required by the CGP by August 15 and at completion of the project.

(c) Permit Registration Documents. The Government will file these documents upon receipt of the approved SWPPP. Allow 21 calendar days for submittal and approval by the State Water Board. Post a copy of the NOI acknowledgement at the construction site bulletin board for the duration of the project. Do not perform any ground disturbing activities including clearing, grubbing, or earthwork until an acknowledgement letter is received from the State Water Board and the SWPPP has been approved and implemented.

(d) Inspections and Revisions to the SWPPP. Conduct inspections according to the CGP.

Document the inspections on forms provided in the SWPPP. Retain inspection forms onsite in the SWPPP notebook throughout the construction period. Submit monitoring reports in the SMARTS system when required by the CGP.

Revisions to the SWPPP by a QSD may be necessary during construction to make improvements or to respond to unforeseen conditions noted during construction or site inspections. For that purpose, specify in the SWPPP the mechanism whereby revisions may be proposed by the Contractor or the CO and incorporated into the plan, including review and approval of minor changes. Jointly approve and sign each revision to the SWPPP before implementation. Begin implementation of approved modifications within 72 hours following the inspection when deficiencies or necessary corrections were first noted.

E-16

Place the SWPPP and all updates in a three-ring binder so that completed inspection forms and other records may be inserted. Maintain a current copy of the SWPPP, including a copy of the permit, NOI, Waste Discharge Identification (WDID), and all associated records and forms at the job site throughout the duration of the project. Make the SWPPP available for public inspection and for use by the CO.

At the completion of the project, provide the CO with the complete SWPPP, including inspection forms, logs, monitoring reports, and any other information added during the project.
