Environmental pollution and damage is defined as the presence of chemical, physical, or biological elements or agents that adversely affect human health or welfare; unfavorably alter ecological balances of plant or animal communities; or degrade the environment from an aesthetic, cultural, or historic perspective.

Environmental protection is the prevention/control of pollution and habitat disruption that may occur during construction. The control of environmental pollution and damage requires consideration of air, water, land, biological, noise, cultural, and visual resources; and includes management of visual aesthetics; noise; solid, chemical, gaseous, and liquid waste; radiant energy and radioactive materials; and other pollutants.

c. Submit a Biological Monitoring Report to the USACE within 30 days of each dredge cycle project completion that includes: as-built construction drawings with an overlay of areas that were impacted or preserved and other relevant information documenting that authorized impacts were not exceeded and that general compliance with the conservation measures was achieved.

3.9.2 Conservation Measures

a. Prior to any activities on the beach after March 15th, the project biologist to survey the entire length of the temporary pipeline and equipment corridor and beach fill site for Western Snowy Plovers (WSPs), paying particular attention to any project footprint beach areas where WSPs have been reported in recent years.

The qualified biologist to note the presence and colors of any bands observed on WSPs.

b. The following measures to be put into place should Western Snowy Plovers be detected:

1) During all dredge pipeline activities (including mobilization, moving, maintenance, and demobilization), the qualified biologist will survey the area daily for WSP prior to contractor entry, and then be on site daily to confirm contractor operations to avoid any Western Snowy Plovers.

01 57 19 - 14 Amendment 2

2) In order to minimize disturbance of snowy plovers, vehicle trips and equipment staging/movement shall be limited to the installation, maintenance, and the removal of the discharge pipeline and facilities, and trips to man the beach discharge operations.

3) The number of vehicle trips to the beach fill site to be minimized to the extent practicable during equipment and dredge pipeline mobilization, inspection and maintenance, and demobilization.

4) Vehicle use on approved beach areas is authorized only for activities associated with the various dredging operations. No recreational use by the dredging contractor is allowed within beach areas using any type of motorized vehicle.

3.9.3 Work Beyond March 15th - Grunion Measures

If dredging extends beyond March 15th, develop and submit a Grunion Protection Plan and submit to the Contracting Officer by March 5th.

b. For clamshell-scow dredge operations, nearshore placement is not allowed two hours prior to, two hours during, and two hours after each scheduled grunion run. (A total of 6 hours of placement restrictions per grunion run night.) Grunion runs cover a 4 consecutive night period, commencing with each New Moon / Full Moon. Approximately 8 nights per month.

For clamshell-scow operations with nearshore placement, grunion monitoring is not required. However, an abbreviated Grunion Protection Plan is required that identifies the dates and times of the potential grunion runs and lists the times of "no placement activities".

The Grunion Protection Plan shall include monitoring, name of monitoring firm, point of contact at monitoring firm and phone number, restrictions on direct impacts from placement or grading of materials in the intertidal zone, conditions under which direct impacts to the intertidal zone could be allowed, and reporting. The Plan shall also cover procedure for removing pipeline from the beach at the end of the dredge project to minimize impact to the grunion. The Grunion Protection Plan to include a sample Grunion Monitoring form to be filled out nightly by the monitor. The Grunion Monitoring form shall include all of the categories listed on the Grunion Greeter Data Collection Form, available at the following website:

http://grunion.pepperdine.edu/

"no grunion were observed last night" or "grunion observed spawning at the following locations:"). The construction manager to immediately forward the information to the Contracting Officer by e-mail with Cc: to Kirk.c.brus@usace.army.mil. This preliminary grunion information will be instrumental for the Contracting Officer to decide if any beach operations need to be modified.

c. A Grunion Monitoring Report to be submitted to the Contracting Officer within 24 hours of the last night of the 4-night expected grunion run (for each New Moon / Full Moon expected grunion run). Include the information for all 4 nights of monitoring, and include a summary of the 4-night grunion run. In addition to an estimate of how many grunion were observed, the monitor to list the corresponding Walker Scale for assessment of grunion (W-0 thru W-5).

Utilize an aerial photo / Google photo in the report to indicate the area of grunion monitoring and the area(s) of grunion sightings. The report should also include photos of grunion runs, if any.

d. For Ventura Harbor Dredging project, key geographic locations that the grunion monitor should be aware of are: Santa Clara River; South Beach;

Contractor to provide reasonable alternative dredge placement methods and / or remedial measures to continue construction operations. Potential remedial actions include:

* fencing of one or more corridors between the dunes and the surf to provide protected habitat for the snowy plover or least tern.

* narrowing the corridor of activities

* alternative dredge placement methods

3.10 PROTECTION OF AIR RESOURCES

Implement special management techniques as set out below to control air pollution by the construction activities. These techniques supplement the requirements of Federal, State, and local laws and regulations; and the safety requirements under this Contract. If any of the following techniques conflict with the requirements of Federal, State, or local laws

01 57 19 - 16 Amendment 2 or regulations, or safety requirements under this Contract, then those requirements must be followed in lieu of the following.

Keep construction activities under surveillance, management and control to minimize pollution of air resources.

3.10.1 Air Quality Management District
