When RMS exports to QCS, "Review Comments to Contractor" will electronically update. A hard copy of ENG Form 4025, Part III is attached to a submittal item when returned.

1.3 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation; submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only or as otherwise designated. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. The following shall be submitted in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES. Submit the following preconstruction submittal items no later than 30 calendar days after Notice to Proceed:


Export File ; G, RO

As part of the initial project schedule, review and correct the "Submittal Register". Provide the corrected "Submittal Register" as part of first QCS export file to the Government.

1.4 SUBMITTAL CLASSIFICATION

Submittals are classified as follows:

1.4.1 Government Approved

Government approval is required for extensions of design, critical materials, deviations, equipment whose compatibility with the entire system must be checked, and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer. Within the terms of the Contract Clause entitled "Specifications and Drawings for Construction," they are considered to be "shop drawings."

1.4.2 Information Only

All submittals not requiring Government approval will be for information only. "Information Only" submittal items shall be reviewed, coded and approved by the Contractor. They are not considered to be "shop drawings" within the terms of the Contract Clause referred to above.

1.5 APPROVED SUBMITTALS

The Contracting Officer's approval of submittals shall not be construed as a complete check, but will indicate only that the general method of construction, materials, detailing and other information are satisfactory. Approval will not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for any error which may exist, as the Contractor under the Contractor Quality Control (CQC) requirements of this contract is responsible for dimensions, the design of adequate connections and details, and the satisfactory construction of all work. After submittals have been approved by the Contracting Officer, no resubmittal for the purpose of substituting materials or equipment will be considered unless accompanied by an explanation of why a substitution is necessary.



1.6 DISAPPROVED SUBMITTALS

Make all corrections required by the Contracting Officer and promptly furnish a corrected submittal in the form and number of copies specified for the initial submittal. If the Contractor considers any correction indicated on the submittals to constitute a change to the contract, a notice in accordance with the Contract Clause "Changes" shall be given promptly to the Contracting Officer.

1.7 WITHHOLDING OF PAYMENT

No payment for materials incorporated in the work will be made if required approvals have not been obtained until it is determined by the Contracting Officer that materials meet contract requirements.

1.8 GENERAL

The Contractor shall make submittals as required by the specifications using the QCS software "Transmittal Log". The Contracting Officer may request submittals in addition to those specified when deemed necessary to adequately describe the work covered in the respective sections. Units of weights and measures used on all submittals shall be the same as those used in the contract drawings. Each submittal shall be complete and in sufficient detail to allow ready determination of compliance with contract requirements. Prior to transmittal, all items shall be checked and approval coded by the Contractor's Quality Control (CQC) System Manager, and each item shall be stamped, signed, and dated by the CQC System Manager indicating action taken. Proposed deviations from the contract requirements shall be clearly identified. Submittals shall include items such as: Contractor's, manufacturer's, or fabricator's drawings; descriptive literature including (but not limited to) catalog cuts, diagrams, operating charts or curves; test reports; test cylinders; samples; O&M manuals (including parts list); certifications; warranties; and other such required submittals. Submittals requiring Government approval shall be scheduled and made prior to the acquisition of the material or equipment covered thereby. Samples remaining upon completion of the work shall be picked up and disposed of in accordance with manufacturer's Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and in compliance with existing laws and regulations.

1.9 SUBMITTAL REGISTER

At the end of this section is a submittal register showing items of equipment and materials for which submittals are required by the specifications; this list may not be all inclusive and additional submittals may be required. The Submittal Register using QCS/RMS is a shared electronic database constantly updated by both Government and Contractor. The Government will provide initial RMS export file to populate the QCS submittal register in electronic format. This list may not be all inclusive, and additional submittals may be required. Examine contract drawings and specifications, verify QCS data, and add required submittal items. The Contractor's initial update to the submittal register shall be made prior to submission of the initial project schedule. The Contractor can print or e-mail QCS/RMS generated current Submittal Register ENG Form 4288, and Transmittal Log as QCS reports. Submittal and Transmittal status are updated with each RMS/QCS data file exchange.



1.10 SCHEDULING

Submittals covering component items forming a system or items that are interrelated shall be scheduled to be coordinated and submitted concurrently. QCS requires the Contractor to schedule and transmit submittal items from one Section together. Certifications to be submitted with drawings shall be scheduled. Schedule submittals with sufficient time to obtain a Government response prior to delivery of applicable equipment and materials, and commencement of applicable work. The Contractor assumes risk for applicable deliveries and work performed prior to receipt of a Government response to a submittal which requires no resubmission as indicated in the clause SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES of Volume 1. Unless otherwise indicated in specific paragraphs governing each submittal, allow QC/QA review periods from date of receipt by Approval Authority in the schedule as follows:

Information Only - Contractor QC Review - 10 Calendar Days"G" - Government QA Review - 30 Calendar Days

The Government has the number of calendar days indicated above from the date a transmitted "G" submittal item is received to review, code and return comments. The Contractor shall resubmit disapproved submittal items (codes C, D, E, G or X) within 10 calendar days after return. No delay damages or time extensions will be allowed for time lost caused by late submittals.

1.10.1 Avoiding Delays

Notify the Contracting Officer immediately when procurement or construction delays due to submittal review are possible.

1.11 TRANSMITTAL FORM (ENG FORM 4025)

These forms are included in the QCS software. Use the QCS transmittal log to generate "ENG Form 4025 - Transmittal of Shop Drawings, Equipment Data, Material Samples, or Manufacturer's Certificates of Compliance" to transmit submittal items to the Government. EN Form 4025R has three sections as follows:

Section I - "Request for Approval of the Following Items" is initiated by the Contractor.

Section II - "Approval Action" combined with a review code in column "For CE Use Code" indicates submittal item acceptance or rejection by Approving Authority.

Section III - Government Review Remarks.

This form shall be properly completed using QCS software to fill out all the heading blank spaces and identify each item submitted. Special care shall be exercised to ensure proper listing of the specification paragraph or sheet number of the contract drawings pertinent to the data submitted for each item.

1.11.1 Approving Authority Review Codes

The Contractor shall use QCS to act as Approving Authority to code FIO submittals. The Government will use RMS to prepare reviewer comments and



code "G" submittal items. These comments and coding will update QCS when the .RFX file update is imported by the Contractor from the QCS SFTP repository. The action codes are as follows ("Resubmit" in parentheses means the Contractor is required to resubmit):

A -- Approved as submitted (Complete)B -- Approved, except as noted on drawings (Complete)C -- Approved, except as noted on drawings (Resubmit)D -- Returned by correspondence (Complete)E -- Disapproved (See Attached and Resubmit)F -- Receipt Acknowledged (Completed)G -- Other (Specify Action in Detail; Resubmittal may be required)X -- Receipt Acknowledged, does not comply (Resubmit)

1.12 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES

Submittals shall be made as follows:

1.12.1 Reviewing, Certifying, Approving Authority

The Contractor shall perform QC review of all submittal items, and certify for compliance or note submittal item is a variation. Approving authorities are as follows:

"G" - Government will approve "G" submittal items.Information Only - Contractor shall approve "Information Only" submittal items.

1.12.2 Procedures

The Contractor shall furnish submittals required by contract and transmit them to the Contracting Officer using ENG Form 4025 as contract transmittal form. Transmit all submittals to the address provided by the Resident Engineer prior to the Preconstruction Conference. The address may also be provided by contacting the area office indicated in Page 00010-2 of the Standard Form 1442.

1.12.3 Number of Copies or Samples

Transmit three (3) hard copies and three (3) soft copies of "G" submittal items and three (3) hard copies and three (3) soft copies of "Information Only" submittals to Contracting Officer. Each transmittal of a set of hard copy submittal items shall have a coded and signed hard copy of a QCS generated ENG Form 4025. Soft copy submittal items shall be transmitted on CD-ROM in PDF format unless otherwise approved by the Contracting Officer. Only one transmittal shall be transmitted per CD-ROM. The Contractor shall attach a signed copy of ENG Form 4025 on each CD-ROM disk case, mark the contract and transmittal numbers on each CD-ROM disk, and include a PDF of the signed ENG Form 4025 on each CD-ROM.

1.12.4 Identifying Submittal Items and Transmittals

QCS creates a unique number using section number and generated number (01 30 00-X) for each submittal item. Also, QCS creates a unique number



for each transmittal using section number and a number assigned by the Contractor (01 33 00-XXXXX). The Contractor assigned numbers are not consecutive and may be an activity number from the procurement schedule. Attach a QCS generated ENG Form 4025 to each set and copy of submittal items. Identify each sample submittal item with project title, contract number, section/submittal item number, name, address and phone number of Contractor's point of contact.

1.12.5 Submittal Format

1.12.5.1 Format for Shop Drawings

Paper copies of shop drawings shall be ANSI standard sizes A, B, C or E (8.5"x11", 11"x17", 17"x22" or 34"x44" respectively).

One paper copy of drawings shall be included with each set of CD-ROM disks transmitted.

1.12.5.4 Administrative Submittal Items Format

When an administrative submittal becomes part of the contract or project record, use 8.5"x11" pages for text and 11"x17" sheets for drawings. Use a table of contents with tabs for large submittal items. Use loose leaf binder or binder fastener to allow for disassembly, and addition of documents.

1.12.5.5 Operation and Maintenance Data

See Section 01 78 23 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE DATA.

1.12.6 Deviations

Deviations are also known as "variations" from the contract requirements. Variations require Government approval, and will be considered when beneficial to the Government. An "Information Only" submittal item becomes a "G" submittal item requiring Government review and approval when a variation is proposed. When QCS variation block is checked, explain why the variation should be accepted in place of the specified item in



"Remarks to Government". The "Remarks to Government" will populate the ENG Form 4025R "REMARKS" block. The variation will become a modification to contract requirements if it is approved by the Contracting Officer. Approved variations may require adjustments to contract price for increased (basic change document) or decreased (Government's credit) costs, and construction time. The Government reserves the right to rescind inadvertent approval of submittals containing unnoted deviations.

1.12.7 Considering Variations

Discuss proposed variations with the Contracting Officer prior to submission. Ensure function and quality requirements are met. Submit proposed variation as a Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP) if it is likely to result in lower cost. See the clause VALUE ENGINEERING - CONSTRUCTION of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES of Volume 1.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES

For contract work, the Contractor shall comply with all applicable Federal, State, or local laws and regulations. The environmental resources within the project boundaries and those affected outside the limits of permanent work under this contract shall be protected at least during the entire period of this contract. The Contractor shall confine his activities to areas defined by the drawings and specifications. Deviations from drawings or specifications (e.g., proposed alternate borrow areas, disposal areas, staging areas, and alternate access routes) could result in the need for the Government to reanalyze and re-approve the project from an environmental standpoint. Environmental protection shall be as stated in the following subparagraphs.

3.1.1 General Project Environmental Design and Installation Criteria

Some project sites have features that shall not be impacted in any way, including cultural, historic, or archeological features. At all sites, the Contractor shall minimize disturbance to existing features at the site to the extent possible, including vegetative, topographic, and drainage pattern features. Wetland impacts (temporary access, detours, staging areas, and other work area impacts) to project sites should be avoided and may require separate permitting action. Any wetlands temporarily impacted shall have its soil restored upon project completion. Expansion of previously permitted project footprints may likewise require separate permitting action.

In all cases, the design and/or installation of project system shall provide for protection of the environment during handling, installing, storing, utilizing, transporting, servicing, testing, refilling, transferring, pumping, processing, removing waste products, repairing and maintaining systems and their components. Necessary design protection shall also be considered that would prevent contamination of the environment from impacts to the system caused by storm water runoff and flooding. Retrofit of connected systems on project sites to modern environmental protection design standards shall also be considered.

In the event environmental protection measures fail, the Contractor shall implement procedures to control and correct environmental damage.

3.1.1.1 Petroleum-Based Systems Environmental Design and Installation Criteria

For petroleum-based systems, a statement of site suitability shall be provided and shall include what would be necessary to prevent adverse



impact to water quality; natural resources; habitat; historic, cultural, and archeological sites; and fragile local resources in the event of a fuel spill. Human error and mechanical/electrical failure of components without human intervention shall also be considered in the design with regard to spills. Additionally, appropriate noise and emissions controls shall be incorporated into the design, including vapor and exhaust controls.

At a minimum, environmental protection design requirements shall also include the following: (1) stationary tanks and piping shall have secondary containment features; (2) approved materials and corrosion protection systems shall be utilized; (3) system leaks shall be readily detected and contained without human intervention; and, (4) overfill containment systems shall be provided.

Applicable Federal, State, and local codes and requirements shall be strictly adhered to in the design, including those of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the State of Florida, the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), and other local governing agencies such as those of counties and municipalities.

Note that Chapters 62-761 and 62-762 of the FAC may be combined into one Chapter. Best Management Practices from the applicable agencies shall also be adhered to in the design.

3.1.1.2 Sewage-Based Systems Environmental Design and Installation Criteria

In general, there shall be no waste or debris discharges of any kind for a project unless authorized by the Contracting Officer. This shall include the Contractor's providing sufficient temporary sanitary equipment and facilities for the project. The design and/or installation of temporary or permanent sewage systems shall ensure that waters will be free of effects of sewage discharges. Applicable Federal, State, or local codes and requirements regarding sewage shall be strictly adhered to in the design, such as those of the EPA and, in the case of the State, Chapter 62-620 (Wastewater Facilities) of the FAC. Best Management Practices from the applicable agencies shall also be adhered to in the design.

3.1.2 Protection of Land Resources

Prior to the beginning of any construction, the Contractor shall identify all land resources to be preserved or avoided within the Contractor's work area. Materials displaced into uncleared areas shall be removed. The Contractor shall not remove, cut, deface, injure, or destroy land resources including trees, shrubs, vines, grasses, topsoil, and land forms without special permission from the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall engage a qualified tree surgeon to perform all tree surgery. The Contractor shall be responsible to repair injuries to bark, trunk, branches, and roots of protected trees by dressing, cutting, and painting as specified for Class I Fine Pruning, of the National Arborist Association Pruning Standards for Shade Tree or as per State's Agricultural Extension Agency Guidelines, immediately as occurrences arise. No ropes, cables, or guys shall be fastened to or attached to any trees for anchorage unless specifically authorized. Where such special emergency use is permitted, the Contractor shall provide effective protection for land and vegetation resources at all times as defined in the following subparagraphs.



3.1.2.1 Work Area Limits

Prior to any construction, the Contractor shall mark the areas that are not required to accomplish all work to be performed under this contract.

The Contractor agrees to assure compliance with this obligation by all subcontractors.

3.1.2.2 Protection of Landscape

Trees and their roots, shrubs, vines, grasses, land forms, and other landscape features shall be clearly identified and protected by fencing or any other approved techniques. Protection of trees shall be as illustrated in the Tree Protection Plan Detail on the web site indicated in the paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. Tree protection fencing shall be placed before excavation or grading is begun and maintained in place until construction is complete. Branches of protected trees, if required, shall be removed to clear for construction and pruning shall subsequently be performed to restore the natural shape of the entire tree. Branches or roots, if required, shall be cut with sharp pruning instruments and not broken or chopped. Protected trees shall be fertilized to compensate for root loss with 6-6-6 as per manufacturer's application direction. Any damage to tree crowns or roots shall be repaired promptly after damage occurs.

a. Trench or Bore Under Trees: Where trenching for utilities is required within tree driplines, the Contractor shall hand dig under and around roots or bore under them. The Contractor shall protect roots from drying and cover exposed roots within an hour as specified in subparagraph "Excavation for Structures" below. No lateral roots which interfere with new construction shall be cut. Boring is permitted.

b. Excavation for Structures: Where excavating for new construction is required within tree drip lines, the Contractor shall hand excavate to minimize damage to root systems. The Contractor shall use narrow tine pitchforks and comb soil to expose roots. The Contractor shall relocate roots in backfill areas. If large, main lateral roots are encountered that are exposed beyond the excavation



limits, the Contractor shall bend and relocate these roots without breaking or girdling. If roots are encountered immediately adjacent to new construction such that relocation is not practical, the Contractor shall saw roots approximately 3" back from the new construction, seal with tree wound dressing, and protect any exposed embankment of roots from drying by covering with straw and black plastic. The Contractor shall irrigate affected areas daily until final grade conditions are established and the exposed roots are backfilled properly for continued plant growth.

c. Replacement: The Contractor shall remove dead or damaged protected trees determined, by the Government, to be incapable of restoration to normal health growth. The Contractor shall replace each removed tree up to 4" caliper with tree of equal specie and size. For each tree removed larger than a 4" caliper, the Contractor shall replace the tree with one 4" caliper tree per 4" caliper increment or fraction thereof.

3.1.5.3 Protection of Migratory Bird Species

The Contractor shall keep construction activities under surveillance, management, and control to prevent impacts to migratory birds and their nests. All construction personnel shall be advised that migratory birds are protected by the Florida Endangered and Threatened Species Act of 1977, Title XXVIII, Chapter 372.072, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service pursuant to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The Contractor may be held responsible for harming or harassing the birds, their eggs or their nests as a result of the construction. The Contractor shall conduct preconstruction surveys for protected species, making note of suitable nesting habitat within and adjacent to the project work limits, prior to the start of construction activities.

a. Monitoring of Construction Area: In order to meet these responsibilities, the Contractor shall conduct monitoring of the construction area beginning 1 April through 31 August, if construction activities occur during that period. Daily monitoring using the Daily Bird Monitoring Report shall be conducted during the dawn or dusk time frames by a bird monitor approved by the Contracting Officer. (Caution shall be taken by the monitor to avoid disturbance to the nesting birds.) The Contractor shall maintain a daily log detailing monitoring and nesting activity (not all bird species are listed). Sample monitoring report and qualification sheet are on the web site indicated in paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. Within 30 days after completion of construction, a summary of monitoring shall be submitted to the Corps detailing nesting and nesting success/failure including species, number of nests created, location, number of eggs, number of offspring generated during the project and reasons for nesting success or failure, if known.

b. Nesting Activity Notification: Any nesting activity observed by the Contractor shall be reported immediately to the Contracting Officer who shall have sole authority for any work stoppages, creation of the buffer area, or restart of construction activities. In addition, notify the personnel indicated in the table "Order of



Contact of Corps Personnel" above, and FWC Regional Director at (561) 625-5122.

c. Presence/Absence Survey: At least 3 visits must be made to each site during April-July. A 6-minute point count (variable circular plot) should be conducted between sunrise and 3 hours after or 1 hour prior to sunset. If breeding birds are encountered, nests shall be located and observed without disturbance to the nesting activity. Nests shall be marked and visited every 3-5 days to determine fate.

d. Nesting Within Construction Area:

(1) Should nesting begin within the construction area, a temporary, 200-foot buffer shall be created around the nests and marked to avoid entry (the Contracting Officer will provide signs). The area shall be left undisturbed until nesting is completed or terminated, and the chicks fledge. The decision to allow construction in a former nesting site will be determined by the Contracting Officer in consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the FF&WCC. Access to the nesting sites by humans (except limited access when accompanied by the bird monitor or Contracting Officer), equipment or pets under control of the Contractor is prohibited.

(2) If nesting occurs within the construction area, a bulletin board shall be placed and maintained by the Contractor in the contracting shed with the location map of the construction site showing the bird nesting areas and a warning, clearly visible, stating that "BIRD NESTING AREAS ARE PROTECTED BY THE FLORIDA THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT AND THE FEDERAL MIGRATORY BIRD TREATY ACT".

(3) Birds will find the top of the dike or the flat interior desirable nesting habitat. If construction activity ceases for any period of time, nesting may occur before work can resume. Any stoppage of activity could induce nesting, subsequently, construction could be altered or stopped to avoid impacting the birds. Areas which are potentially suitable for nesting can be altered to make the area undesirable. One approved method is the placement of stakes at 10- to 15-foot intervals and tie flagging between the stakes in a web fashion. This may dissuade bird nesting until construction can be resumed. In addition, the disposal area basin can be flooded prior to the beginning of nesting season to the elevation required for displacement from the disposal of dredged material in order to make the basin undesirable for bird nesting.

(4) Nesting platforms are present within, and adjacent to, the project work limits. Osprey and other protected species have nested on these platforms historically. In addition, there are many trees protected (such as cypress and palms) within the project work limits that may provide suitable nesting habitat for protected species. If an inactive bird nest is present within the project work limits, the Contractor may apply for a nest removal permit from FFWCC at http://myfwc.com/license/wildlife/#nest removal to remove the inactive nest to prevent impacts to construction. If the Contractor removes any nesting platform(s), the Contractor shall replace the platform(s) prior to completion of work.



e. Bird Monitoring Qualifications: The Contractor's Environmental Protection Plan shall contain the qualifications of the bird monitor and the steps to be taken to construct the project in such a manner as not to impact migratory birds or induce their nesting. The qualifications of the bird monitor are a demonstrated ability to identify bird species, general and nesting behavior characteristics, nests and eggs, and a knowledge of habitat requirements. In addition, references must be provided to verify non-educational experience. The qualifications shall be submitted on the Bird Monitoring Qualification Sheet.

f. Work Delay: Delays in work due to the fault of negligence of the Contractor or the Contractor's failure to comply with this specification shall not be compensable. Any adjustments to the contract performance period or price that are required as a result of compliance with this section shall be made in accordance with the Clause SUSPENSION OF WORK of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1.

3.1.5.4 Bald Eagle ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus)

A survey for bald eagles' nests shall be conducted prior to any construction activities. A preliminary survey has been conducted by the Government.

a. A 660-foot no activity buffer zone shall be maintained around the nest under the following conditions: (a) building construction at any height, and (b) where the project footprint is any size, and (c) the activity will be visible from the nest, and (d) if there is no similar activity within 1 mile of the nest.

(1) If there is existing tolerated activity for similar scope closer than 1 mile from the nest, the buffer zone may be adjusted to the same distance as that activity or structure occurs within the 660 feet.

b. A 330-foot no activity buffer zone shall be maintained around the nest under the following conditions: (a) building construction of any height, and (b) project footprint is 0.5 acre or less, and (c) the activity will not be visible from the nest, and (d) there is no similar activity within 1 mile of the nest.
