HW will be defined as a solid waste which exhibits a characteristic such as flammability, corrosivity, reactivity, or toxicity, as identified in LAC:33.V.4901, or is otherwise listed in LAC:33.V.4901. Any mixture of a solid waste and a listed HW is also considered a HW. If in doubt please contact CEAN Hazardous Waste Program Manager for determination if waste is hazardous.

The Contractor will take precautions to preserve all preexisting historical, archeological and cultural resources. If during project execution the contractor observes unusual items that might have historical, or archeological value, such observations shall be reported as soon as possible to the Contracting Officer. An important SOP pertaining to inadvertent discovery of human remains can be found at the end of this document.

Protection of Fish and Wildlife

(POC: Mr. Bruce Holland 2 CES/CEANR 456-4088)

The contractor shall perform all work required to minimize interference or disturbance to fish and wildlife. The contractor will not be allowed to alter water flows or disturb native habitat adjacent to the work area that in the opinion of the Contracting Officer are critical to fish and wildlife.

Protection of Water Resources

(POC: Ms. Babs Legan 2 CES/CEAN 456-5256)

The contractor shall not pollute any streams, rivers, or waterways through direct discharge or by stormwater run-off. The contractor shall comply with all applicable federal, state, local laws and the BAFB Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and BAFB Spill Control and Countermeasures Plan. The BAFB plans may be reviewed during normal working hours at the CEA office in Building 3433.

Contractors at sites that will disturb 5 or more acres must follow all applicable requirements of LPDES Storm Water General Permit for Construction Activity, Permit No. LAR 10000. Included are requirements to develop a SWPPP, submit a Notice of Intent, perform scheduled self-inspections, and upon project completion, submit a Notice of Termination. Permits, NOIs, and NOTs are available from the LDEQ Water Permits Division. The Base Environmental Office requires that the contractor furnish the Base Storm Water Program Manager, (318) 456-5256 with copies of these documents. The state of Louisiana will invoice the contractor for the NOI (approx. $275.00); no money is due upon submittal.

Contractors for construction sites that disturb at least 1, but less than 5 acres of soil must comply with the LPDES Storm Water General Permit for Small Construction Activities, Permit No. LAR 200000 available from the LDEQ Water Permits Division. One requirement of this permit is to develop and follow a site specific Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. The Asset Management office has a fill-in-the-blank template available. Whether you chose to use the template or your own form, a copy of your plan must be submitted to the Asset Management office before you may begin ground disturbance. Please be advised that scheduled self-inspections are also part of this state requirement. There is NO application or fee for this permit. When a construction project is complete and the site has been stabilized in accordance with permit Part III.D.2.a.2, the permittee shall submit a Completion Report form (see Appendix B of the permit). The form must be signed and dated and submitted to the Permits Division by January 28 of the year following the calendar year in which the project was completed.

Projects that have a footprint greater than 5000 square feet must implement EISA Section 438 which requires site planning, design, construction, and maintenance strategies to maintain or restore, to the maximum extent technically feasible, the predevelopment hydrology of the property with regard to the temperature, rate, volume, and duration of flow. US EPA guidance for compliance can be found at Storm Water Compliance Sec 438.

In addition to the permitting and plan requirements noted above, the contractor staging area and work area(s) shall be maintained in a neat and orderly manner and cleaned up at the end of each duty day. The contractor shall not store petroleum, chemical, or waste containers where the contents will be exposed to rainfall. Containers shall remain closed at all times except when dispensing materials from or transferring materials to other containers. Drip pans shall be placed under dispensers when in use. All containers or tanks of petroleum products with a capacity greater than 55 gallons must have secondary containment or have a specific contingency plan to minimize spills and address the cleanup of spills in the contractors Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for the project. Equipment with a tank capacity of more than 55 gallons, when not operating, is also covered by this requirement. If you will have 1320 gallons or more of total petroleum products stored in containers with at least 55 gallon capacity (equipment tanks count in this total) at the project site or any support sites, Federal law requires that you develop and implement a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures Plan (SPCC plan). For this reason, it is highly recommended that you NOT exceed this threshold. If you must have a SPCC Plan, then a copy shall be filed with the Base Storm Water Program Manager, Ms. Babs Legan at (318) 456-5256.

Regardless of the quantity of petroleum products on site, the contractor shall have spill kits available on site and shall clean-up all spills immediately. Spill kit contents shall be sufficient to control and clean-up a spill equivalent to the largest container on site that does not have secondary containment. Spill debris shall be properly containerized and disposed of by the Contractor. If the spill debris is a hazardous waste, disposal shall be in accordance with the hazardous waste section of this document. CEA should be notified prior to disposal of any waste material resulting from the clean up of spills.

Herbicides
