Prevention Plan , prepared by the State certified erosion control <br /> subcontractor . The CONTRACTOR shall complete the certification provided <br /> at the end of this Section and it shall be a part of the Stormwater Pollution <br /> Prevention Plan . <br /> 1 . 6 " POLLUTION " AND CERTAIN UNCONTESTABLE POLLUTION EVENTS <br /> DEFINED <br /> A. Except as may be defined otherwise in paragraphs 1 . 6 . 13 , 1 . 6 . C , and 1 . 6 . D , <br /> " pollution " is the presence in off-site waters of any substances , contaminants , <br /> or manmade or human-induced impairment of waters , or alteration of the <br /> chemical , physical , biological , or radiological integrity of water in quantities or <br /> at levels which are or may be potentially harmful or injurious to human health <br /> or welfare , animal or plant life , or property . Pollutants to be removed include <br /> but are not limited to , sediment and suspended solids , solid and sanitary <br /> wastes , phosphorus , nitrogen , pesticides , oil and grease , concrete truck <br /> washout , construction chemicals , and construction debris . <br /> B . When the Discharge is Directly Into an Existing Water Body , Pollution Occurs <br /> When . . . An existing water body ( including ditches and canals ) is defined to <br /> be polluted by the CONTRACTOR' s operations when at any time , the <br /> turbidity of the water immediately downstream of the CONTRACTOR' s <br /> discharge point(s) is 29 nephelometric turbidity units ( NTUs ) higher than the <br /> turbidity of the background water upstream of the discharge point( s ) . [See <br /> Fla . Administrative Code 62-302 . 530] The ENGINEER or OWNER shall <br /> determine the locations where the turbidity is measured . <br /> C . When the Discharge is not Directly Into an Existing Water Body , Pollution <br /> Occurs When . . . In some instances , dewatering water or stormwater runoff <br /> from the construction site or work area may reach a water body indirectly , <br /> such as after traveling through pipes or by overland flow . Before <br /> construction commences , the OWNER or ENGINEER will measure <br /> background levels of total suspended solids (TSS ) and turbidity , in the <br /> immediate vicinity of the discharge water' s ultimate discharge point into the <br /> receiving water body . If the discharge water' s TSS and turbidity <br /> measurements exceed these pre-construction background values by 29 <br /> NTUs for turbidity , then the discharge from the CONTRACTOR Is operations <br /> is defined to be polluted . <br /> D . Pollution Always Occurs When . . . .The discharge is defined to be polluted <br /> whenever any of the following is present in the discharge water: <br /> ( 1 ) Hazardous waste or hazardous materials in any quantity , <br /> (2 ) Any petroleum product or by-product in any quantity , <br /> (3 ) Any chemical in any quantity , or <br /> (4 ) Concentrated pollutants . <br /> E . Above paragraphs 1 . 6 . 13 , 1 . 6 . C , and 1 . 6 . D do not in any way , limit the types <br /> of conditions in which pollution may be determined to occur . <br /> 1 . 7 PENALTIES FOR NONCOMPLIANCE WITH THIS SECTION <br /> FAEngineering\Special Projects\Eagle Trace Phase Montract Documents\Eagle Trace Subdivision Phase II\9611A & 0001 - Technical <br /> Provisions .doc - 5 - <br />
