SECTION NO. 104 PREVENTION, CONTROL, AND ABATEMENT OF EROSION <br />AND WATER POLLUTION <br />PART 1 — GENERAL <br />1.1 SCOPE <br />A. This Section covers erosion control and the treatment of dewatering water and <br />stormwater runoff from the construction site and work area. Pollution control <br />measures shall prevent polluted or turbid waters from being discharged from the <br />construction site or work area to undeveloped portions of the site or offsite, <br />including but not limited to Multiple Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s) and <br />Waters of the State. <br />B. The OWNER considers pollution from dewatering water and stormwater runoff <br />from a construction site or work area to be a very serious offense. The <br />CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for preventing pollution caused by <br />dewatering water and stormwater runoff from the construction site or work area. <br />Note that state regulations do not allow mixing stormwater and dewatering <br />groundwater in the same release — separate and independent discharges are <br />required. <br />C. Pollution control measures specified herein represent minimum standards to be <br />adhered to by the CONTRACTOR throughout the Project's construction. The <br />OWNER reserves the right to require the CONTRACTOR to employ additional <br />pollution control measures, when in the sole opinion of the OWNER, they are <br />warranted. If site specific conditions require additional erosion and stormwater <br />pollution control measures during any phase of construction or operation to prevent <br />erosion or to control sediment or other pollution, beyond those specified in the <br />Drawings, the Project's approved Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), <br />or herein, implement additional best management practices as necessary, in <br />accordance with Chapter 4, "Best Management Practices for Erosion and <br />Sedimentation Control" of the Florida Erosion and Sediment Control Inspector's <br />Manual and other references as may be applicable or required by regulatory <br />permits. <br />D. The OWNER may terminate this Contract if the CONTRACTOR fails to comply <br />with this Section. Alternatively, the OWNER may halt the CONTRACTOR's <br />operations until the CONTRACTOR is in full compliance with this Section. If the <br />OWNER halts the CONTRACTOR's Work as a result of failure to comply with this <br />Section, the Contract time clock will continue to run. <br />E. In addition to these Specifications, comply with Chapter 4 - "Best Management <br />Practices for Erosion and Sedimentation Control" and Chapter 5 — "Best <br />Management Practices for Dewatering" of the Florida Erosion and Sediment <br />Control Inspector's Manual. In the event of a conflict between the referenced <br />chapters and these Specifications, the more stringent requirement shall prevail. <br />Page I1 <br />F:\Public Works\ENGINEERING DIVISION PROJECTS\1213B-IRC Shooting Range Skeet & Trap Phase 2\Admin\bid documents\Addendums\Addendum No. 3 Updated Section 104 <br />Technical Specs.docx <br />
