SECTION 02225 <br />EROSION CONTROL AND TREATMENT OF DEWATERING WATER AND <br />STORMWATER FROM THE CONSTRUCTION SITE <br />PART 1 — GENERAL <br />1.1 SCOPE <br />A. This Section covers erosion control and the treatment of dewatering water <br />and stormwater runoff from the construction site and work area. The <br />pollution control measures shall prevent turbid or otherwise polluted <br />waters from being discharged from the construction site or work area, to <br />undeveloped portions of the site or off-site, including downstream in the <br />lateral "D," lateral "C," and lateral "134" canals. <br />B. The OWNER considers pollution from dewatering water and stormwater <br />runoff from a construction site or work area to be a very serious offense. <br />The CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for preventing pollution caused <br />by dewatering water and stormwater runoff from the construction site or <br />work area. <br />C. The pollution control measures specified herein represent minimum <br />standards to be adhered to by the CONTRACTOR throughout the <br />Project's construction. The OWNER reserves the right to require the <br />CONTRACTOR to employ additional pollution control measures, when in <br />the sole opinion of the OWNER, they are warranted. If site specific <br />conditions require additional erosion and stormwater pollution control <br />measures during any phase of construction or operation to prevent <br />erosion or to control sediment or other pollution, beyond those specified in <br />the Drawings or herein, implement additional best management practices <br />as necessary, in accordance with Chapter 4, "Best Management Practices <br />for Erosion and Sedimentation Control" of the Florida Erosion and <br />Sediment Control Inspector's Manual. An electronic copy may be <br />obtained from the office of the Stormwater Division Manager, 4375 43rd <br />Ave. Unit 102, Vero Beach, FL 32967. In the event of a conflict between <br />the referenced Chapter 4 and these Specifications, the more stringent <br />requirement shall apply. <br />D. The OWNER may terminate this Contract if the CONTRACTOR fails to <br />comply with this Section. Alternatively, the OWNER may halt the <br />CONTRACTOR's operations until the CONTRACTOR is in full compliance <br />with this Section. Time extensions for such down time will not be issued. <br />Last Revised 12/2007 02225-1 Wabasso Beach Pk Restoration <br />F:\Public Works\Cliff Suthard\Wabasso Beach ParkW Construction Bid Documents\Bid Documents as of 1-9- <br />2008\Technical Specifications\Div 2\Coastal Tech Div 2\02225 - Erosion Control & Treatment.doc <br />
