Prevention of Storm Water Pollution: The Contractor shall perform, track, participate, implement, and comply with storm water pollution prevention minimum control measures, protocols, and best management practices (BMP) and ensure that water quality standards are not violated in accordance with all regulations and policies as they apply to the State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System general permit requirements and any of the installation's guidelines.

this project requires minimal digging outside. However, during any excavation, Best Management Practices to prevent storm water pollution are required in accordance with the Navy’s Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The project falls under the Texas General Construction Permit (TX150000) but does not require a site specific SWPP because disturbance will be less than one acre. • The Contractor shall control all pollutants, including waste materials and demolition debris that occur onsite and shall be handled and disposed of in a manner that does not cause contamination of storm water. Good housekeeping and preventative measures shall be taken at all times to ensure that the site will be kept clean, well-organized, and free of debris. All spills are reportable and shall be coordinated with the COR and the Chief of the EPCD. No discharges to the stormwater system or wastewater systems are allowed without explicit approval from the COR and the Chief of the EPCD.

M. Protection of Work Site Resources: Contractor shall confine all activities to areas defined by the drawings and specifications. Prior to the beginning of any work, the Contractor shall identify any land resources to be preserved within the work area.
