(h) Fully perform and install erosion and sediment control/stormwater work prior to any suspension of the work. (i) Coordinate with Department, Federal, State and Local Regulatory agencies on resolution of erosion and sediment control/stormwater issues due to the Contractor’s operations. (j) Ensure that proper cleanup occurs from vehicle tracking on paved surfaces or any location where sediment leaves the Right-of-Way. (k) Have available a set of erosion and sediment control/stormwater plans that are initialed and include the installation date of Best Management Practices. These practices shall include temporary and permanent groundcover and be properly updated to reflect necessary plan and field changes for use and review by Department personnel as well as regulatory agencies. (2) Requirements set forth under the NPDES Permit - The Department's NPDES Stormwater permit (NCS000250) outlines certain objectives and management measures pertaining to construction activities. The permit references NCG010000, General Permit to Discharge Stormwater under the NPDES, and states that the Department shall incorporate the applicable requirements into its delegated Erosion and Sediment Control Program for construction activities disturbing one or more acres of land. The Department further incorporates these requirements on all contracted bridge and culvert work at jurisdictional waters, regardless of size. Some of the requirements are, but are not limited to: (a) Control project site waste to prevent contamination of surface or ground waters of the state, i.e. from equipment operation/maintenance, construction materials, concrete washout, chemicals, litter, fuels, lubricants, coolants, hydraulic fluids, any other petroleum products, and sanitary waste. (b) Inspect erosion and sediment control/stormwater devices and stormwater discharge outfalls at least once every 7 calendar days days, twice weekly for construction related Federal Clean Water Act, Section 303(d) impaired streams with turbidity violations, and within 24 hours after a significant rainfall event of 0.5 inch that occurs within a 24 hour period. Additional monitoring may be required at the discretion of Division of Water Resources personnel if the receiving stream is 303(d) listed for turbidity and the project has had documented problems managing turbidity. (c) Maintain an onsite rain gauge or use the Department’s Multi-Sensor Precipitation Estimate website to maintain a daily record of rainfall amounts and dates. (d) Maintain erosion and sediment control/stormwater inspection records for review by Department and Regulatory personnel upon request. (e) Implement approved reclamation plans on all borrow pits, waste sites and staging areas. (f) Maintain a log of turbidity test results as outlined in the Department's Procedure for Monitoring Borrow Pit Discharge. (g) Provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials. (h) Provide training for employees concerning general erosion and sediment control/stormwater awareness, the Department’s NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000250 requirements, and the applicable requirements of the General Permit, NCG010000. (i) Report violations of the NPDES permit to the Engineer immediately who will notify the Division of Water Quality Regional Office within 24 hours of becoming aware of the violation. (3) Quality Control Program - Maintain a quality control program to control erosion, prevent sedimentation and follow provisions/conditions of permits. The quality control program shall: (a) Follow permit requirements related to the Contractor and subcontractors’ construction activities. (b) Ensure that all operators and subcontractors on site have the proper erosion and sediment control/stormwater certification. (c) Notify the Engineer when the required certified erosion and sediment control/stormwater personnel are not available on the job site when needed. (d) Conduct the inspections required by the NPDES permit. (e) Take corrective actions in the proper timeframe as required by the NPDES permit for problem areas identified during the NPDES inspections. (f) Incorporate erosion control into the work in a timely manner and stabilize disturbed areas with mulch/seed or vegetative cover on a section-by-by- section basis. (g) Use flocculants approved by state regulatory authorities where appropriate and where required for turbidity and sedimentation reduction. (h) Ensure proper installation and maintenance of temporary erosion and sediment control devices. (i) Remove temporary erosion or sediment control devices when they are no longer necessary as agreed upon by the Engineer. (j) The Contractor’s quality control and inspection procedures shall be subject to review by the Engineer. Maintain NPDES inspection records and make records available at all times for verification by the Engineer.
