The protection of rare, threatened, and endangered animal and plant species identified, including their habitats, is the Contractor's responsibility.

Maintain a 100-foot buffer around all wetlands, including streams and designated waters of the state.

Restore site to an equivalent or improved condition upon completion of work that is consistent with the requirements of the Contracting Officer

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 14 or as otherwise specified. Confine construction activities to within the limits of the work indicated or specified. Protect existing trees that are to remain to ensure they are not injured, bruised, defaced, or otherwise damaged by construction operations. For all trees removed, one shall be planted as a replacement.

3.2 STORMWATER

Do not discharge stormwater from construction sites to the sanitary sewer without prior specific authorization from the Installation Environmental Office in writing. Discharge of hazardous substances will not be permitted under any circumstances. If the water is noted or suspected of being contaminated, it may not be released to the storm drain or sewer system. It must be held on site until treated or disposed of properly.

Obtain authorization in advance from the Installation Environmental Office for any release of contaminated water.

3.2.1 Erosion and Sediment Control Measures

Construction sites shall be properly managed in order to prevent any discharge that causes a condition in which visible solids, bottom deposits, or turbidity impairs the usefulness of waters of the state for any use. There shall be no distinctly visible floating scum, oil, or other matter in the stormwater discharge from the construction site; nor will the discharge from the site cause an objectionable color contrast in the receiving waters. Storm water controls shall be in place before and during any ground disturbance which would cause runoff. Controls will remain in place until soil has undergone permanent stabilization. The storm water discharge must result in no materials in concentrations sufficient to be hazardous or otherwise detrimental to humans, livestock, wildlife, plant life, or fish and aquatic life in the receiving stream.

Sediment that escapes the site shall be removed at the close of each business day or prior to a rainfall event to prevent its reaching streams, creeks, and ditches. Remove sediment from traps, silt fences, straw bales, etc., as necessary and when design capacity has been reduced by 50 percent. Controls shall be removed from the site once construction is complete and the site has undergone permanent stabilization with a final sustainable cover.

3.2.1.1 Temporary Protection of Erodible Soils

a. Mechanical Retardation and Control of Runoff

Mechanically retard and control the rate of runoff from the construction site. This includes construction of diversion ditches, benches, berms, and use of silt fences and straw bales to retard and divert runoff to protected drainage courses.

Appropriate fabric silt fence and other erosion control measures shall be selected and installed to specifications in the current version of the Tennessee Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Handbook.

b. Surface Water Diversion

Divert all surface water flowing toward the construction area by using berms, channels, or sediment traps, as necessary. Discharge contents of sediment basins and traps through a pipe or lined channel so that the discharge does not cause erosion. Hold muddy water pumped out from excavation and work areas in settling basins or treat it by filtration

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 15 prior to its discharge into surface waters.

c. Washing of equipment or vehicles outside of a containment area will not be allowed on base.

d. All dumpsters shall be covered when not in use and/or when it is raining.

e. Follow Standard Operating Procedure on Washing Buildings, Roofs, Equipment, Concrete Pads and Parking Lots:

CLEANING MOLD AND MILDEW:

(1) Only clean small areas to prevent runoff. The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) does not want any runoff reaching the storm drains. Do not wash if it is raining.

(2) Mist a solution of bleach (Sodium Hypochlorite), or a chemical approved by the Contracting Officer, on the material that needs mold and mildew cleaning. The solution is 1/2 cup or 4 oz. of bleach to every gallon of water.

(3) Let stand for fifteen (15) minutes.

(4) Rinse with water.

(5) Notify the Contracting Officer at least two working days before beginning the operation. They will inspect the operation, before, during, and after cleanup for pH monitoring and prevention of runoff.

CLEANING DIRT STAINS:

(1) Pressure wash with water only. Do not add detergent to the spray.

Do not wash if it is raining.

(2) Only clean small areas to prevent runoff. The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) does not want any runoff reaching the storm drains.

(3) Notify the Contracting Officer at least two working days before beginning the operation. They will inspect the operation before, during, and after cleanup for pH monitoring and prevention of runoff.

CLEANING PETROLEUM STAINS:

(1) Place plastic sheets under areas that need cleaning or other means of containing any runoff until it can be captured. Place spill pans underneath leaking equipment. Do not wash if it is raining.

(2) Mist a solution of Simple Green, or a chemical approved by the Contracting Officer on the material that needs petroleum stain removed.

The solution is a ratio of 1:10, i.e. one gallon of Simple Green to every ten gallons of water.

(3) Use a wet/dry vac to vacuum up all runoff. This runoff contains petroleum products that are in violation of our Storm Water Permit.

(4) Contact the Contracting Officer for proper disposal of vacuumed runoff.

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 16

(5) Notify the Contracting Officer at least two working days before beginning the operation. They will inspect the operation before, during, and after cleanup for pH monitoring and prevention of runoff.

f. Contractors must control wastes such as discarded building materials, concrete truck washout, chemicals, litter, and sanitary waste at the construction site to avoid adverse impacts to water quality.

g. Contractor is responsible for all concrete truck chute-flushing disposal. This flushing shall be done at the construction site and is not allowed anywhere else on board the base. The project may require the use of multiple concrete wash out areas. All concrete wash out areas will be located in an area where the likelihood of the area contributing to storm water discharges is negligible. If required, additional BMPs must be implemented to prevent concrete wastes from contributing to storm water discharges. The location of concrete wash out area(s) must be identified on the SWPPP working drawing by the contractor once the locations have been determined. The contractor shall take the material to a state approved landfill. Concrete trucks will be allowed to wash out or discharge surplus concrete or drum wash water on the site, but only in one of the following:

(1) specifically designated diked areas which have been prepared to prevent contact between the concrete and/or wash out and storm water which will be discharged from the site;

(2) a depression lined with thick poly which can be thrown into a dumpster with the hardened concrete once the mixture dries;

(3) in locations where waste concrete can be poured into forms to make rip rap or other useful concrete products. The hardened residue from the concrete wash out diked areas will be disposed of in the same manner as other non-hazardous construction waste materials.

The site superintendent will be responsible for seeing that these procedures are followed in accordance with the TN EPSC Handbook.

h. Construction exits not covered with aggregate are not authorized on the project site.

i. Illicit discharges are not permitted on board the base. Report all illicit discharges to the Contracting Officer. Allowable storm water discharges include water line flushing, landscape irrigation, rising ground waters, air conditioning condensate, lawn watering, street wash water, discharges or flows from firefighting activities. Illegal dumping into storm sewers is prohibited. Government has the authority to eliminate non storm water discharges that are in violation of all environmental regulations.

j. Non storm water discharges will not be permitted to discharge into the storm sewer.

Provide seeding as required in specification.

3.2.2 Contractor Facilities and Work Areas

Place field offices, staging areas, stockpile storage, and temporary buildings in areas designated on the drawings or as directed by the

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 17

Contracting Officer. Move or relocate the Contractor facilities only when approved by the Government. Provide erosion and sediment controls for onsite borrow and spoil areas to prevent sediment from entering nearby waters. Control temporary excavation and embankments for plant or work areas to protect adjacent areas.

3.3 PROTECTION OF CULTURAL RESOURCES

3.3.1 Historical and Archaeological Resources

If, during excavation or other construction activities, any previously unidentified or unanticipated historical, archaeological, and cultural resources are discovered or found, activities that may damage or alter such resources will be suspended. Resources covered by this paragraph include, but are not limited to: any human skeletal remains or burials;

artifacts; shell, midden, bone, charcoal, or other deposits; rock or coral alignments, pavings, wall, or other constructed features; and any indication of agricultural or other human activities. Upon such discovery or find, immediately notify the Contracting Officer so that the appropriate authorities may be notified and a determination made as to their significance and what, if any, special disposition of the finds should be made. Cease all activities that may result in impact to or the destruction of these resources. Secure the area and prevent employees or other persons from trespassing on, removing, or otherwise disturbing such resources. The Government retains ownership and control over archaeological resources.

3.4 AIR RESOURCES

Equipment operation, activities, or processes will be in accordance with 40 CFR 64 and state air emission and performance laws and standards.

3.4.1 Burning

Burning is prohibited on the Government premises.

3.4.2 Dirt and Dust Controls

Keep dust down at all times, including during nonworking periods. Dry power brooming will not be permitted. Instead, use vacuuming, wet mopping, wet sweeping, or wet power brooming. Air blowing will be permitted only for cleaning nonparticulate debris such as steel reinforcing bars. Only wet cutting will be permitted for cutting concrete blocks, concrete, and bituminous concrete. Do not unnecessarily shake bags of cement, concrete mortar, or plaster. Since these products contain Crystalline Silica, comply with the applicable OSHA standard, 29 CFR 1910.1053 or 29 CFR 1926.1153 for controlling exposure to Crystalline Silica Dust.

3.4.2.1 Particulates

Dust particles, aerosols and gaseous by-products from construction activities, and processing and preparation of materials (such as from asphaltic batch plants) must be controlled at all times, including weekends, holidays, and hours when work is not in progress. Maintain excavations, stockpiles, haul roads, permanent and temporary access roads, plant sites, spoil areas, borrow areas, and other work areas within or outside the project boundaries free from particulates that would exceed 40 CFR 50 , state, and local air pollution standards or that would cause a

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 18 hazard or a nuisance. Sprinkling, chemical treatment of an approved type, baghouse, scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators, or other methods will be permitted to control particulates in the work area. Sprinkling, to be efficient, must be repeated to keep the disturbed area damp. Provide sufficient, competent equipment available to accomplish these tasks.

Perform particulate control as the work proceeds and whenever a particulate nuisance or hazard occurs. Comply with state and local visibility regulations.

3.4.3 Odors

Control odors from construction activities. The odors must be in compliance with state regulations and local ordinances and may not constitute a health hazard.

3.5 WASTE MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSAL

3.5.1 Waste Determination Documentation

Complete a Waste Determination form (provided at the pre-construction conference) for Contractor-derived wastes to be generated. All potentially hazardous solid waste streams that are not subject to a specific exclusion or exemption from the hazardous waste regulations (e.g.

scrap metal, domestic sewage) or subject to special rules, (lead-acid batteries and precious metals) must be characterized in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 261 or corresponding applicable state or local regulations. Base waste determination on user knowledge of the processes and materials used, and analytical data when necessary. Consult with the Installation Environmental Staff for guidance on specific requirements.

Attach support documentation to the Waste Determination form. As a minimum, provide a Waste Determination form for the following waste (this listing is not inclusive): oil- and latex -based painting and caulking products, solvents, adhesives, aerosols, petroleum products, and containers of the original materials.

3.5.2 Solid Waste Management

3.5.2.1 Project Solid Waste Disposal Documentation Report

Provide copies of the waste handling facilities' weight tickets, receipts, bills of sale, and other documentation. In lieu of sales documentation, a statement indicating the disposal location for the solid waste that is signed by an employee authorized to legally obligate or bind the firm may be submitted. The sales documentation Contractor certification must include the receiver's tax identification number and business, EPA or state registration number, along with the receiver's delivery and business addresses and telephone numbers. For each solid waste retained for the Contractor's own use, submit the information previously described in this paragraph on the solid waste disposal report. Prices paid or received do not have to be reported to the Contracting Officer unless required by other provisions or specifications of this Contract or public law.

3.5.2.2 Control and Management of Solid Wastes

Pick up solid wastes, and place in covered containers that are regularly emptied. Do not prepare or cook food on the project site. Prevent contamination of the site or other areas when handling and disposing of wastes. At project completion, leave the areas clean. Employ segregation measures so that no hazardous or toxic waste will become co-mingled with

SECTION 01 57 19 Page 19 non-hazardous solid waste. Transport solid waste off Government property and dispose of it in compliance with 40 CFR 260 , state, and local requirements for solid waste disposal.
