ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 GENERAL
The action required by this section consists of furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment and performing all work required for the abatement and prevention of pollution during and as the result of construction operations under this contract, except for those measures set forth in other Sections of these specifications. For the purpose of this specification, environmental pollution is defined as the presence of chemical, physical, or biological elements or agents which adversely affect human health or welfare; unfavorably alter ecological balances; detrimentally impact biological species and/or their habitat; or degrade the aesthetic and recreational value of the area. The control and prevention of environmental pollution requires consideration of impacts upon air, water, land, archeological sites, and/or biological species/habitat and involves noise control, solid waste management, and resources conservation to include management of hazardous and/or toxic materials and management of radiant energy and radioactive materials, as well as other pollutants.
1.2 Technical Assistance
Technical assistance for complex environmental problems shall be coordinated with Base
Environmental Coordinator, 37 CES/CEV, 671-4844.

1.5 DEFINITIONS
1.5.1 Environmental Pollution and Damage
Environmental pollution and damage is the presence of chemical, physical, or biological elements or agents which adversely affect human health or welfare; unfavorably alter ecological balances of importance to human life; affect other species of importance to humankind; or degrade the environment aesthetically, culturally and/or historically.
1.5.2 Environmental Protection
Environmental protection is the prevention/control of pollution and habitat disruption that may occur to the environment during construction. The control of environmental pollution and damage requires consideration of land, water, and air; biological and cultural resources; and includes management of visual aesthetics; noise; solid, chemical, gaseous, and liquid waste; radiant energy and radioactive material as well as other pollutants.
Section J – Attachment 2J Page 4 of 17 8 Feb 2010
1.5.3 Contractor Generated Hazardous Waste
Contractor generated hazardous waste means materials that, if abandoned or disposed of, may meet the definition of a hazardous waste. These waste streams would typically consist of material brought on site by the Contractor to execute work, but are not fully consumed during the course of construction. Examples include, but are not limited to, excess paint thinners (i.e. methyl ethyl ketone, toluene etc.), waste thinners, excess paints, excess solvents, waste solvents, and excess pesticides, and contaminated pesticide equipment rinse water.
1.5.4 Installation Pest Management Coordinator
Installation Pest Management Coordinator (IPMC) is the individual officially designated by the Installation Commander to oversee the Installation Pest Management Program and the Installation Pest Management Plan.
1.5.5 Project Pesticide Coordinator
The Project Pesticide Coordinator (PPC) is an individual that resides at a Civil Works
Project office and that is responsible for oversight of pesticide application on Project grounds.
1.5.6 Land Application for Discharge Water
The term "Land Application" for discharge water implies that the Contractor must discharge water at a rate which allows the water to percolate into the soil. No sheeting action, soil erosion, discharge into storm sewers, discharge into defined drainage areas, or discharge into the "waters of the United States" must occur. Land Application must be in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws and regulations.
1.5.7 Pesticide
Pesticide is defined as any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, repelling, or mitigating any pest, or intended for use as a plant regulator, defoliant or desiccant.
1.5.8 Pests
The term "pests" means arthropods, birds, rodents, nematodes, fungi, bacteria, viruses, algae, snails, marine borers, snakes, weeds and other organisms (except for human or animal disease-causing organisms) that adversely affect readiness, military operations, or the well-being of personnel and animals; attack or damage real property, supplies, equipment, or vegetation; or are otherwise undesirable.
1.5.9 Surface Discharge
Section J – Attachment 2J Page 5 of 17 8 Feb 2010
The term "Surface Discharge" implies that the water is discharged with possible sheeting action and subsequent soil erosion may occur. Waters that are surface discharged may terminate in drainage ditches, storm sewers, creeks, and/or "waters of the United States" and would require a permit to discharge water from the governing agency.
1.5.10 Waters of the United States
All waters which are under the jurisdiction of the Clean Water Act, as defined in 33 CFR
328.
1.5.11 Wetlands

Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, and bogs. Official determination of whether or not an area is classified as a wetland must be done in accordance with WETLAND
MANUAL.
1.6 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Minimize environmental pollution and damage that may occur as the result of construction operations. The environmental resources within the project boundaries and those affected outside the limits of permanent work must be protected during the entire duration of this contract. Comply with all applicable environmental Federal, State, and local laws and regulations. Any delays resulting from failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations will be the Contractor's responsibility.
1.7 SUBCONTRACTORS
Ensure compliance with this section by subcontractors.
1.8 PAYMENT
No separate payment will be made for work covered under this section. Payment of fees associated with environmental permits, application, and/or notices obtained by the
Contractor, and payment of all fines/fees for violation or non-compliance with Federal, State, Regional and local laws and regulations are the Contractor's responsibility. All costs associated with this section must be included in the contract price.
1.9 SUBMITTALS
