About this file

This is Section 01 14 00 (Work Restrictions) of the Spring Creek North Ecosystem Restoration Project specifications, which outlines key timing and access restrictions for contractors performing ecosystem restoration work in Brooklyn & Queens, New York for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The document details specific environmental timing restrictions for protecting wildlife, including no in-channel work during Diamondback Terrapin overwintering (November 15-April 30) and Essential Fish Habitat periods (January 15-May 31). Regular working hours are 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM Monday through Friday. The specification includes a comprehensive schedule of allowed work periods for different activities: in-channel work (June 1-November 15), tree clearing (October 1-March 31), wetland planting (March 1-June 15), upland seeding (October 1-March 15), and various phases of invasive species removal. Contractors must submit contact information for emergency purposes and follow strict no-smoking policies within the project site. Any work outside regular hours or utility interruptions requires 15 days advance notice and Contracting Officer approval.
