Article 4) -Work to be accomplished

4.1 The Base Bid and accepted ABIs as noted of perimeter fence shall be to improve the existing perimeter roads and install new fence to ensure the security of Camp James A.

Garfield Joint Military Training Center (CJAGJMTC). All replacement shall be done in accordance with applicable laws and safety practices. The new posts, fabric, top rail, outriggers, bottom wire and barbed wire shall meet the criteria set forth on Standard Drawing “FE6 Chain-Link Security Fence Details-STD 872-90-03” and in UFC 4-022-03.

This project is to include all gates that are not newly installed prior to this scope of work.

Also in accordance with UFC 4-022-03, all culverts and drainage areas shall follow the specifications under this standard as well. All work shall comply with the more stringent of either the FE6 Chain-link Security Fence Details-STD 872-90-03 or UFC 4-022-03 for the completion of the work.

a. CHAIN LINK FENCING

i. The Chain link Fence fabric shall be 9 gauge galvanized steel and 72” (seventy two inches) high, with 2 x 2 standard weave. Chain link fence is a fencing material made from wire helically wound and interwoven in such a manner as to provide a continuous mesh without knots or ties. Chain link fences and gates must comply with specification requirements in UFGS 32 31 13, Chain Link Fences and Gates and UFGS 32 31 13.53, High-Security Chain Link Fences and Gates. Consult with ASTM F2611 and ASTM F1712 for additional guidance (fabric, post, framework, fittings, and other accessories) regarding chain link fencing. Refer also to the Chain Link Manufacturers Institute’s Security Fencing Recommendations (CLF-SFR0111) and Product Manual (CLF0PM0610) for additional information.

ii. Additional Fencing Fabric Requirements The fencing fabric must be extended to within 2 inches (51 mm) of firm ground and anchored, using horizontal tension wires. This anchoring will prevent the fencing fabric from being able to be lifted by hand more than 5 inches (125 mm) in height. Mesh openings in chain link fencing are not intended to be covered, blocked, or laced with material which would prevent a clear view of personnel, vehicles, or material in outer clear zones. Locate all posts, rails, bracing and tension wires on the secure/protected side, i.e. inner side, of the fencing fabric.

Select the framework components and material from ASTM F626, ASTM F1043, and ASTM F1083.

iii. Chain Link Fencing Fabric

Fencing fabric must be minimum 9-gage wire mesh and mesh openings must not be greater than 2-inches (51 mm) per side. Fence fabric material will be galvanized steel, or aluminum coated steel fabric (use aluminum coated if located in corrosive environment). See Corrosion Prevention Control for additional information regarding material selection.

iv. Top and Bottom Selvages

Selvage is the edge finish on woven chain link fabric joining pairs of pickets. The selvage may be knuckled or twisted depending on application. Knuckled selvage is defined as the type of selvage obtained by interlocking adjacent pairs of wire ends and bending the wire back into a loop. Twisted is obtained by twisting adjacent pairs of wire ends together in a close helix of 11⁄2 machine turns, which is equivalent to three full twists. See UFC 4-022-03 Figure 2-2 for selvage examples. Twisted selvage must be provided on the top of the fence fabric to deter climbing. Twisted selvage must be provided at the bottom of the fence fabric to deter borrowing unless the fence has a bottom rail, is buried, or encased in concrete. In these applications the selvage may be knuckled.

v. Fence Posts

Fencing fabric must be mounted on steel posts that are set in concrete with additional bracing at corners and gate openings, as necessary. If steel posts are not available, reinforced concrete posts will be used. Posts, bracing, and all other structural members must be placed on the secure-side of the fencing fabric.

Posts must be vertical within plus or minus 2 degrees in each direction.

Determine the embedment depth of the fence posts and associated footings considering wind load, local soil conditions, and the potential for wind and water erosion. Posts for security fencing must be embedded and encased in concrete (ODOT QC-1 mix design) according to the design details in STD 872-90-03. The use of a set retarder admixture may be used to extend the batch time of discharge as described in ODOT 499.08.

vi. Fence Bracing

Steel truss rods used for bracing must have a minimum nominal diameter of 5/16 inch (8 mm) and provided with turnbuckles for tensioning. Provide bracing for each gate, terminal and end post. Install truss rods diagonally from near ground level of the gate, terminal or end post to within 6 inches (152 mm) from the top of the fabric at the adjacent line post. Fencing fabric can be securely fastened to tension wires on the top and bottom with 9 gage (3.76 mm) galvanized tie wires incorporating at least three full twists, 9 gage (3.76 mm) round wire galvanized hog rings, or in a manner that provides a tensile strength equal to or greater than the strength of the fencing fabric. Consider securing all fastening and hinge hardware by peening or welding to prevent disassembly of fencing and gate components where warranted by the required level of protection.

b. TOP GUARDS

i. Outrigger/Barbed Wire Arm Material Specifications

Top guards must be constructed of the same material as the other fencing components in accordance to ASTM F626. See Drawing STD 872-90-03 for details.

ii. Barbed Wire

1. Fences requiring barbed wire must use a minimum of 3 strands of barbed wire equally spaced. Additional strands may be added as required. Barbed wire must consist of two 12.5 -gage /0.099-inch (2.5

mm) (+0. 005- inch (.127 mm)) twisted line wires with 15- gage /0.080-inch (2 mm) (+0, 005-inch (.127 mm)) round barbs. Barbed wire must be zinc-coated steel, aluminum coated steel, aluminum alloy, or PVC over zinc-coated steel as specified. All barbs must consist of four points and spacing of barbs must be at 5- inch (127 mm) (+1- inch (25.4 mm)) centers.

iii. Special Security Features None required.

iv. Clear Zones A minimum of 10 (ten) feet wide by 40 (forty) feet high clear zone will be established by the contractor by clearing and grading the area for security during the installation of the fence.

v. Drainage Culverts and Utility Openings Provide protective measures for culverts, storm drains, sewers, air intakes, exhaust tunnels, and utility openings, that have a cross-section area of 96 square inches (61,939 square mm) or greater, with the smallest dimension being more than 6 inches (152.4 mm) and:

1. Pass through clear zones.

2. Traverse under or through security fences.

Such openings and barrier penetrations will be protected by securely fastened grills, locked manhole covers, or equivalent means to prevent entry or provide forced entry penetration resistance equal that of the fence. Regarding material selection for securing openings/penetrations see Material Selection and Coatings. In lieu of extended fence posts and fabric to cross the waterway, the contractor would be permitted to “box” the fence along the top of the waterway, cross the pipe outlet and then return to the existing fence line.

Large Diameter Pipes – Multiple Pipes If drainage conditions require large diameter pipes, or if it is a more economical approach to provide security protection, drainage openings may be constructed of multiple pipes having individual diameters of 10 inches (250 mm) or less Extend multiple pipes through the entire conduit, secured to each other and to the large opening. As an economical alternative, reduce the pipe lengths to short segments approximately 6-inches (152 mm) long. Place the short segments at the attack side of the opening and secure them to the welded bar grill. In lieu of extended fence posts and fabric to cross the waterway, the contractor would be permitted to “box” the fence along the top of the waterway, cross the pipe outlet and then return to the existing fence line.

4.2 Contractor will provide all survey and design work for this project. Contractor will provide material, labor and transportation required for construction of this project. All existing fencing material shall recycled on behalf of CJAGJMTC with a monetary credit to the original bid. Upon completion, the area surrounding the work site will be restored.

Attachment B. -Location Maps and plans Attachment C. -Military Fence Standard

Attachment A-Environmental Procedures

Environmental Procedures 25 January 2018

1. General

1.1. These Environmental Procedures identify environmental compliance requirements for Ohio Army National Guard (OHARNG) projects. The Environmental Procedures are intentionally broad in scope to ensure contractors have information needed to price and complete work knowing all the requirements. In general these Environmental Procedures are applicable to all OHARNG projects, but some of the conditions are specific to certain types of work such as pest control, renovation, and demolition. Contractors conducting work not specified in these procedures are considered to be in compliance with no specific action required.

1.2. The OHARNG is committed to environmental stewardship at all of our facilities and within our communities as a whole. The Adjutant General’s Department maintains an Environmental Management System (EMS) in accordance with (IAW) ISO 14000 standards.

If implemented accordingly, following the guidelines outlined in the following Environmental Procedures will ensure Contractor compliance with the EMS policy. Through sound environmental management, the OHARNG is committed to:

• Assuring the sustainability and availability of training lands and facilities to enable soldier training and unit readiness.

• Setting and reviewing environmental objectives and target to manage OHARNG significant environmental aspects.

• Establishing the means to enable continual improvement of our environmental program.

• Complying with all relevant environmental legislation and regulations.

• Ensuring soldiers and employees of the OHARNG are informed of environmental program requirements and are able to execute individual and organizational responsibilities.

• Improving upon pollution prevention and reduction strategies through the application of innovative processes and technologies.

• Considering the environmental requirements and impacts in all planning processes relative to training, equipment fielding, and construction.

1.3. The Contractor must comply with all applicable local, state, and federal environmental requirements to include applicable Army and OHARNG regulations. This includes, but is not limited to, the proper characterization, management and disposal of wastes; proper storage, use and transportation of hazardous materials; spill prevention and clean up;

obtaining proper permits and submitting proper notifications as applicable to the work being conducted; and protection of surface water and natural resources.

1.4. The Contractor (to include subcontractors) will not correspond with any regulatory agency regarding an OHARNG project without approval of the OHARNG. This includes meetings, phone calls, emails, permit/application submittals, or other written or verbal communications.

The OHARNG will review and approve all correspondence, to include permit applications and notifications, before they are sent to a regulatory agency to include but not limited to the federal or Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the Ohio Historic Preservation Office, the US Army Corps of Engineers, County Engineer offices, and local Soil and Water Conservation offices.

1.5. The Contractor is responsible for paying all fees and acquiring all applicable permits or regulatory approvals associated with the work they are performing. Depending upon the permit/notification, it may need to be issued in the OHARNG’s name. Coordination will be done with the OHARNG to determine this and as applicable the Contractor will complete the application/notification for OHARNG signature and submit the application and associated fees. All permit submittals will be coordinated, reviewed and approved by the OHARNG before submittal regardless of who signs the application.

1.6. Executive Order (EO) 13693, Planning for Federal Sustainability in the Next Decade, establishes a federal integrated strategy toward sustainability including efforts to “eliminate waste, recycle, and prevent pollution.” Additionally, EO 13693 establishes targets to divert at least 50% of non-hazardous solid waste, including construction and demolition debris, from the waste stream. The Contractor will utilize the most current waste prevention, waste diversion (salvage, reuse, recycle), and waste minimization guidelines to ensure this target is met.

1.7. Burning of waste, brush, rubbish, and/or any other debris is not permitted. If brush or vegetation burning is desired, a request to do so must be submitted to the OHARNG for review. If the OHARNG concurs that burning is needed, the Contractor is required to submit a burn permit to the Ohio EPA along with any associated fee. If the Ohio EPA approves the application and issues a permit, the contractor is required to comply with all conditions of the permit. Upon receipt of the Ohio EPA burn permit the contractor will obtain any additional permits required by the OHARNG and/or local fire departments/districts, if any.

2. Environmental Work Plan

2.1. The Contractor will develop an Environmental Work Plan that provides details on the work to be performed and how it will be performed to ensure compliance with applicable environmental requirements. The complexity and content of the plan is directly related to work being performed. Topics addressed within the environmental work plan will include as applicable: description and location of the work to be performed; Contractor and OHARNG points of contact; storm water and sediment and erosion controls (may reference a SWP3 if applicable); site stabilization/seeding; hazardous materials to be used; spill prevention, response, and notification; emergency plan and emergency contact information; the qualified personnel responsible for waste management; waste to be generated (hazardous and non-hazardous waste); materials to be recycled; methods to be used to minimize hazardous waste generation; methods and laboratories to be used to characterize the waste; waste haulers and disposal/treatment facilities to be used (Defense Reutilization Management Office (DRMO) approved waste haulers and treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) must be used for hazardous waste); proposed on site waste storage locations; on site waste management and inspection procedures to be implemented to include maximum storage time/proposed waste pickup/transport date; discharges from secondary containment and de-watering activities; and any other information pertinent to environmental compliance associated with the specific work being performed. The Environmental Work Plan will be reviewed by the OHARNG Environmental Office and edited by the Contractor as necessary to correct deficiencies. Work cannot not begin until this work plan has been approved by the OHARNG Environmental Office. A copy of the final work plan will be available at the project site at all times.

2.2. Two (2) hardcopies and two (2) electronic copy each of the draft version of the Environmental Work Plan will be submitted to the OHARNG for review and approval. The draft plan will have the word “Draft” in the title and at the top or across each page. In addition, lines will be numbered in draft reports to facilitate ease of comments. Initial draft work plan submission must be received by the Environmental Office no later than 30 calendar days from issuance of the notice to proceed. The OHARNG will review the draft work plan and return any comments/changes to the Contractor within two weeks of receipt.

The Contractor will have no more than 10 working days to address comments/changes and resubmit the final draft for approval. The Contractor will resolve all comments to the satisfaction of the OHARNG and provide a final Environmental Work Plan to the Environmental Office. The OHARNG reserves the right to re-evaluate the work plan in the event that unforeseen work conditions are encountered.

2.3. The Contractor will provide two (2) hardcopies and two (2) electronic copies each of the final Environmental Work Plan to the OHARNG. The OHARNG will review the final document to make sure all comments/revisions have been incorporated prior to final acceptance and approval.

3. Emergency Spill Response and Petroleum, Oil, and Lubricant (POL) Management

3.1. The Contractor must comply with the local OHARNG Spill Contingency Plan and implement appropriate measure to prevent spills/releases to the environment and to respond, notify, and report when a release occurs. The Contractor is required to inspect equipment, fuel, and hazardous materials storage areas to ensure there are no leaks or releases. The Contractor is responsible for implementing spill response and cleanup of all spills/leaks within the project area immediately upon discovery. Clean up must be satisfactory to the OHARNG and/or the Ohio EPA or other applicable regulatory agency. Wastes will be managed as described in the waste management section of these Environmental Procedures.

3.2. The OHARNG will be notified of all spills/releases. Incidental releases (petroleum product less than 25 gallons, a release that stays of OHARNG property, not in water, and not a reportable quantity) will be responded to by the contractor and the OHARNG notified by telephone within 2-hours. Any spill of petroleum products over 25 gallons, a spill that goes off of OHARNG property, a spill of any amount into a body of water, or a reportable quantity release must be reported to the OHARNG immediately. All spills/releases must be reported in writing on the OHARNG Spill Report Form (Attachment 1) and submitted to the OHARNG within 24 hours. The Contractor will be provided with a copy of the OHARNG Spill Report Form and a point of contact for submitting such reports/notifications.

3.3. The Contractor is required to have a spill kit with appropriate absorbents, plastic bags, drums, shovels, and other supplies and equipment suitable to clean up any releases or spills from their activities.

3.4. Contractor stationary fuel pods must be in/on secondary containment with a storage capacity of 110% of the container. A double walled container is sufficient secondary containment.

Releases of rain water from secondary containment can only be initiated after approval from the OHARNG Environmental Office and after inspection and verification/absorption of all petroleum, oil, and lubricants (POL) and/or other contaminants in the water by the Contractor. Discharge of POL or other contaminants/pollutants from secondary containment is not permitted. At minimum, discharging through an oil only boom/filter or an oil absorption filter bag is required. If the contractor cannot show proof of lack of contaminants, the water will need to be sampled and characterize to determine the proper discharge/disposal method. The contractor will document all discharges/disposal from secondary containments to include name and signature of person conducting discharge/disposal, date of discharge/disposal, volume discharged/disposed, method of discharge/disposal, method of determining water was clean to discharge (analytical result if applicable), and a statement that any discharge did not contain POL or other contaminants. Discharges from secondary containment will be addressed in the Waste Management Section of the Environmental Work Plan.

3.5. Individual fuel/POL cans (5 gallon or less) and hazardous materials used on job sites must be stored in a manner that prevents release to the environment. This will usually involve a covered storage area with appropriate secondary containment that protects them from rain and accidental damage. Chainsaw fuel and bar oil on logging jobs can be left at the tree felling site in the woods or brought out to the log landing each day.

4. Erosion Control, Storm Water and Other Surface Water Management

4.1. For all projects, regardless of the disturbance acreage, the Contractor will use all methods appropriate and required to prevent soil from leaving the project site either by wind, water, or on vehicles and equipment. Silt fence and other temporary soil run off detention methods will be used as needed. Spoil piles and disturbed areas will be managed in accordance with the stipulations outlined in the Ohio EPA General National Pollutant Discharge Elimination system (NPDES) Storm Water Construction Permit and the most current version of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Rainwater and Land Development Manual; Ohio’s Standards for Storm Water Management, Land Development, and Urban Stream Protection (available on-line). The site must be seeded with a temporary seed mix if left idle for the designated period of time. The project site will be closed out by preparing the soil as a seed bed and seeding and mulching with the appropriate seed mix. Temporary erosion control measures (silt fence) will be removed by the contractor once vegetation has been established and soil on the project area is stabilized.

4.2. Post construction permanent storm water / water quality controls must be designed and installed in accordance with Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) and the Ohio EPA General NPDES Storm Water Construction Permit. The current technical guidance on implementation of the Section 438 storm water runoff requirements is available on-line. The post construction requirements will be incorporated into all designs/plans and implemented/constructed by construction contractors as part of the initial site preparation.

4.3. Native seed mixes will be used where suitable and compatible with maintenance requirements. An appropriate turf grass mix will be used for high traffic and high maintenance areas. Annual ryegrass can be added to mixes to provide quick cover. For late season seeding, winter wheat/rye can be added to provide a quick cover. Contractors will use the approved grass seed mixes listed below or propose alternative seed mixes. The OHARNG Environmental Office must approve all seed mixes. The seed mixes that will be used will be identified in the Storm Water Management, Sediment, and Erosion Controls section of the Environmental Work Plan.

The following seed is approved for establishment of temporary cover. Species can be mixed if/as necessary for specific application.

• Annual Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum), broadcast @ 40 lbs/acre, drilled at 30 lbs/acre, mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Use mulch netting or fiber mat on slopes greater than 6%. Grows quickly but of short duration. Good growth during hot summer period.

• Winter Rye (Secale cereal) broadcast @ 112 lbs/acre, drilled at 80 lbs/acre, mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Use mulch netting or fiber mat on slopes greater than 6%. Good for fall seeding. Select a hardy variety.

• Oats (Avena sativa) broadcast @ 80 lbs/acre, drilled at 65 lbs/acre, mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Use mulch netting or fiber mat on slopes greater than 6%. Best for spring seeding. Fall seeding will die when winter sets in.

Add 20 lbs/acre of Annual Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum) to the broadcast mix and 15 lbs/acre to the drilled mix. Good for areas that will remain unfinished indefinitely.

• 23.5% Nodding Wild Rye (Elymus canadensis), 25% Virginia wild rye (Elymus virginicus), 18.75% Partridge Pea (Chamaecrista fasciculata), 1.5% Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), and 31.25% Little Bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium), broadcast @ 25 lbs/acre, drilled at 18 lbs/acre), mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Add 20 lbs/acre of Annual Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum) to the broadcast mix and 15 lbs/acre to the drilled mix. Good for late season (after 15 September) quick temporary cover.

The following seed is approved for establishment of permanent cover in areas that are not maintained as turf grass or high foot traffic areas such as range impact areas that are not regularly mowed, roadsides outside of cantonment areas, fence lines outside of cantonment areas, etc. Substitution with similar species is permitted but must be approved by the OHARNG Environmental Office.

• 23.5% Nodding Wild Rye (Elymus canadensis), 25% Virginia wild rye (Elymus virginicus), 22% Little Bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium), 18.75% Partridge Pea (Chamaecrista fasciculata), 7.75% Thin-leaved Coneflower (Rudbeckia triloba), 1.5% Brown fox sedge (Carex vulpinoidea), 1.5% Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), broadcast @ 18 lbs/acre, drilled at 12 lbs/acre, mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Add 20 lbs/acre of Annual Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum) to the broadcast mix and 15 lbs/acre to the drilled mix. This mix is for use in open areas that receive good sunlight.

• 31% Deertongue (Dichanthelium clandestinum), 25% Virginia wild rye (Elymus virginicus), 25% Nodding Wild Rye (Elymus canadensis), 10% Big Bluestem (Andropogon gerardii), and 9% Side-Oats Grama (Bouteloua curtipendula), broadcast @ 30 lbs/acre, drilled at 20 lbs/acre), mulch with a minimum of 3 bales of straw per 1000 square feet. Add 20 lbs/acre of Annual Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum) to the broadcast mix and 15 lbs/acre to the drilled mix. This mix is for use in shaded areas, partial sun, and openings in the forest canopy.

Areas that are maintained with regular mowing during the growing season and receive heavy foot traffic will be seeded with an appropriate turf grass mix. Such areas include lawns in cantonment areas, parade fields, and range operational control areas (ROCAs). Turf grass mixes of Kentucky blue grass, fine fescue, and perennial ryegrass using varieties appropriate for the specific application will be identified by the contractor and reviewed and approved by the OHARNG prior to application. Contractors will provide draught resistant varieties in seed mixes. A potential mix and varieties are as follows.

• 40% Kentucky Bluegrass (applicable varieties), 30% Perennial Ryegrasses (applicable varieties), 20% Hard Fescue (applicable varieties), and 10% Creeping Red Fescue (applicable varieties)

4.4. For projects that disturb one (1) or more acres of ground (or otherwise meet the Ohio EPA criteria for permit coverage), the Prime Contractor will obtain coverage under the Ohio EPA General NPDES Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity.

The Contractor will submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) as the Operator and pay the applicable fee. The NOI must be approved by the OHARNG Environmental Office prior to submittal to the Ohio EPA. The Contractor will coordinate the content of the NOI with the OHARNG Environmental Office and will make modifications as directed. The contractor is required to have a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) prior to submitting the NOI (see below for SWP3 information). Subcontractors, as applicable, will submit co-permittee NOI’s after the Prime Contractor has obtained authorization and a permit number from the Ohio EPA. All co-permittee NOI’s must be approved by the OHARNG Environmental Office prior to submittal to the Ohio EPA. Copies of all NOI’s and Ohio EPA authorization letters will be provided to the OHARNG project manager and Environmental Office. In situations where the construction permit is in the name of the OHARNG, the Contractor and applicable subcontractors will be co-permittees under the OHARNG’s permit.

4.5. In the absence of an Architect and Engineer (A&E), the Contractor is responsible for the development of Erosion and Storm Water Control (E&S) Plans and Details and the subsequent development of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) in accordance with the requirements contained in the Ohio EPA General NPDES Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity. The Contractor will ensure that E&S controls and permanent post construction / water quality controls comply with Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) and the latest version of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources publication titled "Rainwater and Land Development - Ohio's Standards for Storm Water Management and Land Development and Urban Stream Protection" (available on-line). If A&E E&S and post construction storm water / water quality control designs are available, the Contractor will prepare a SWP3 based on the plans and details provided by the A&E. The Contractor will submit a draft SWP3 to the Environmental Office no later than 30 calendar days from issuance of the notice to proceed.

The OHARNG will review the draft SWP3 and return any comments/changes to the Contractor within two weeks of receipt. The SWP3 will be evaluated using the Ohio EPA Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Checklist for Construction Activities (OHC000004) (Attachment 2). The Contractor will have no more than 10 working days to address comments/changes and resubmit the final draft for approval. Once approved by the Environmental Office, the SWP3 will be provided to the local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) and local County Engineer (if required by County or other regulations) by the Contractor for their review and approval. The Contractor will make corrections to the SWP3 based upon OHARNG, SWCD and Engineer comments. The SWP3 will be signed by an authorized representative of the Contractor. The final copy of the SWP3 will be put in a three ring binder and a signed copy of the SWP3 will be given to the OHARNG Environmental Office, the project manager, and a copy will remain at the work site during project execution. If an A&E developed SWP3 is provided, the Contractor will modify it to include missing required project specific information. The OHARNG reserves the right to re-evaluate the SWP3 in the event that unforeseen work conditions are encountered.

4.6. When an A&E firm is hired to do a design, the A&E will design post construction permanent storm water/water quality controls in accordance with Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) and the Ohio EPA General NPDES Storm Water Construction Permit as part of the design. The A&E will also develop Erosion and Storm Water Control (E&S) Plans and Details, notes, and details suitable for inclusion in the project Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3). Post-construction and construction controls will conform to the latest version of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources publication titled "Rainwater and Land Development - Ohio's Standards for Stormwater Management and Land Development and Urban Stream Protection" (available on-line). If required in the design scope of work/contract, the A&E will develop a complete SWP3 in compliance with the requirements in the Ohio EPA General National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with the Construction Activity. The SWP3 will be evaluated using the Ohio EPA Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Checklist for Construction Activities (OHC000004) (Attachment 2). The A&E will submit the draft SWP3 to the Environmental Office no later than 30 calendar days from issuance of the notice to proceed. The OHARNG will review the draft SWP3 and return any comments/changes to the A&E within two weeks of receipt. The

A&E will have no more than 10 working days to address comments/changes and resubmit the final draft for approval. After review and approval by the OHARNG Environmental Office the A&E will coordinate review of the E&S plans and SWP3 with the local County Engineer and local Soil and Water Conservation District as applicable and make required revisions based on agency reviews. The final copy of the SWP3 will be put in a three ring binder. A signed copy of the SWP3 will be given to the OHARNG Environmental Office and the project manager. A copy of the SWP3 will made for and kept at the work site. The A&E will complete a draft NOI. The General Contractor will add any required project specific information to the E&S plans, SWP3, and draft NOI as applicable. Upon approval by the OHARNG, the General Contractor will submit the NOI and payment to the Ohio EPA. The OHARNG reserves the right to re-evaluate the SWP3 in the event that unforeseen work conditions are encountered.

4.7. The Contractor will implement the SWP3 and conduct all inspections and maintain storm water/erosion controls in accordance with the SWP3.
