Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with McClendon Construction Co., Inc. in the amount of$546,342.00 for pavement reconstruction and water and sanitary sewer replacements on Donnelly Avenue from Ashland Avenue to Alamo Avenue. DISCUSSION: The 1998 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) included funds for the pre-design of capital projects that would be worthy of consideration in the 2004 CIP, subject to the approval of the voters. On February 10, 2004 (M&C C-19958), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an engineering agreement with Huitt-Zollars, Inc. for the design of Donnelly Avenue (DOE 3914), which consists of pavement reconstruction. This contract was revised by amendment No. 1 on September 20, 2004, to include water and sanitary sewer replacements previously designed by another engineer(Teague, Nall and Perkins, DOE 4641 & 3514) to advertise as a combined project. The street improvements include pavement reconstruction, construction of standard concrete curb and gutter, driveway approaches and sidewalks as indicated on the plans. The Water Department has determined that the severely deteriorated water and sanitary sewer lines should be replaced prior to street reconstruction. The project was advertised for bid on October 7, 2004, and October 14, 2004. On November 4, 2004, the following bids were received: Bidder Amount - Amount - Time of Completion Alt. A (HMAC) Alt.

After reviewing all bid proposals, staff recommends Alternate "B" (concrete)for construction since the use of concrete will result in less maintenance cost over the street's useful life. Funding in the amount of$24,900.00 (water: $9,970.00; and sewer: $14,930.00) is included for associated water and sanitary sewer construction survey, project management, pre-construction, material testing, inspection and project close out costs. The contingency funds to cover change orders for water and sanitary sewer work are $13,134.00 (water: $5,197.00; and sewer: $7,937.00). Furthermore, funding in the amount of$29,250.00 is required for associated paving and drainage construction survey, project management, pre-construction, material testing, inspection and project closeout costs.

D- 66 WAGE RATES The labor classifications and minimum wage rates set forth herein have been predetermined by the City Council of the City of Fort Worth, Texas, in accordance with statutory requirements, as being the prevailing classifications and rates that shall govern on all work performed by the Contractor or any Subcontractor on the site of the project covered by these Contract Documents. ` In no event shall less than the following rates of wages be paid. (Attached) D- 67 REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF ASBESTOS CEMENT PIPE 7 A. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth to comply with the requirements of the Asbestos 1 NESHAP found at 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M. This specification will establish procedures to be used by all Excavators in the removal and disposal of ACP in compliance with NESHAP. Nothing in this specification shall be construed to void-any provision of a i contract or other law, ordinance, regulation or policy whose requirements are more stringent. B. ACP is defined under NESHAP as a Category II, non-friable material in its intact state but which may become friable upon removal, demolition arid/or disposal. Consequently, if the removal/ disposal process renders the ACP friable, it is regulated under the disposal requirements of 40 CFR 61.150. A NESHAP notification must be filed with the Texas Department of Health. The notification must be filed at least ten days prior to removal of the material. If it remains in its non - friable state, as defined by the NESHAP, it can be !V disposed as a conventional construction waste. EPA defines friable as material, when dry, f which may be crumbled, pulverized or reduced to powder by hand pressures. i17 C. The Generator of the hazardous material is responsible for the identification and proper handling, transportation, and disposal of the material. Therefore, it is the policy of the City of Fort Worth that the Excavator is the Generator regardless of whether the pipe is friable or not. I D. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth that all ACP shall be removed in such careful and i prudent manner that it remains intact and does not become friable. The Excavator is responsible to employ those means, methods, techniques and sequences to ensure this result. II E. Compliance with all aspects of worker safety and health regulations including but not limited to the OSHA Asbestos Standard is the responsibility of the Excavator. The City of Fort Worth assumes no responsibility for compliance programs, which are the responsibility of the Excavator.

Discharges to Specific Watersheds and Water Quality Areas Discharges otherwise eligible for coverage cannot be authorized by this general permit where prohibited by 30 TAC Chapter 311 (relating to Watershed Protection) for water quality areas and watersheds. 7. Protection of Streams and Watersheds by Other Governmental Entities This general permit does not limit the authority or ability of federal, other state, or local governmental entities from placing additional or more stringent requirements on construction activities or discharges from construction activities. For example, this permit does not limit the authority of a home-rule municipality provided by Section 401.002 of the Texas Local Government Code. 8. Indian Country Lands Storm water runoff from construction activities occurring on Indian Country lands are not under the authority of the TCEQ and are not eligible for coverage under this general permit. If discharges of storm water require authorization under federal National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES)regulations,authority for these discharges must be obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 9. Oil and Gas Production Storm water runoff from construction activities associated with the exploration, development, or production of oil or gas or geothermal resources, including transportation of crude oil or natural gas by pipeline,are not under the authority of the TCEQ and are not eligible for coverage under this general permit. If discharges "A Page 10 IM,, w TPDES General Permit TXR150000 w of storm water require authorization under federal NPDES regulations,authority for these discharges must be obtained from the EPA. 10. Storm Water Discharges from Agricultural Activities Storm water discharges from agricultural activities that are not point source discharges of storm water are not subject to TPDES permit requirements. These activities may include clearing and cultivating ground for crops, construction of fences to contain livestock, construction of stock ponds, and other similar agricultural activities. Section C. Deadlines for Obtaining Authorization to Discharge 1. Large Construction Activities ry (a) New Construction - Discharges from sites where the commencement of construction occurs on or after the issuance date of this general permit must be authorized,either under this general permit or a separate TPDES permit, prior to the commencement of those construction activities.

Authorization to discharge under this permit terminates at midnight on the day the NOT is postmarked for delivery to the TCEQ. If electronic submission of the NOT is provided, authorization to discharge under this permit terminates immediately following confirmation of receipt of the NOT by the TCEQ. Compliance with the conditions and requirements of this permit is required until an NOT is submitted. 1. Notice of Termination Required The NOT must be submitted to TCEQ, and a copy of the NOT provided to the operator of any MS4 receiving the discharge,within thirty (30)days, after: (a) final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee: or (b) another permitted operator has assumed control over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized;and (c) all silt fences and other temporary erosion controls have either been removed, scheduled for removal as defined in the SWP3, or transferred to a new operator if the new operator has sought permit coverage. Erosion controls that are designed to remain in place for an indefinite period,such as mulches and fiber mats, are not required to be removed or scheduled for removal. 2. Minimum Contents of the NOT The NOT form shall require,at a minimum,the following information: (a) if authorization was granted following submission of a NOI,the permittees site-specific TPDES general permit number for the construction site; Page 15 i TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (b) an indication of whether the construction activity is completed or if the permittee is simply no longer an operator at the site; (c) the name, address and telephone number of the permittee submitting the NOT; (d) the name(or other identifier),address,county,and latitude/longitude of the construction project or site; and (e) a signed certification that either all storm water discharges requiring authorization under this general permit will no longer occur, or that the applicant to terminate coverage is no longer the operator of the facility or construction site, and that all temporary structural erosion controls have either been removed,will be removed on a schedule defined in the SWP3,or transferred to a new operator if the new operator has applied for permit coverage. Erosion controls that are designed to remain in place for an indefinite period, such as mulches and fiber mats, are not required to be removed or scheduled for removal. Section F. Waivers from Coverage The executive director may waive the otherwise applicable requirements of this general permit for storm water discharges from small construction activities under the terms and conditions described in this section. 1. Waiver Applicability and Coverage Operators of small construction activities may apply for and receive a waiver from the requirements to obtain authorization under this general permit where: (a) the calculated rainfall erosivity R factor for the entire period of the construction project is less than five(5); (b) the operator submits a signed waiver certification form, supplied by the executive director, certifying that the construction activity will commence and be completed within a period when the value of the calculated rainfall �. erosivity R factor is less than five(5); and (c) the waiver certification form is submitted to the TCEQ at least two(2)days before construction activity begins. 2. Effective Date of Waiver Operators of small construction activities are provisionally waived from the otherwise applicable requirements of this general permit two(2)days from the date that a completed waiver certification form is postmarked for delivery to TCEQ. Page 16 ``JJ J L a �� .dpi,( p_•,o TPDES General Permit TXR150000 3. Activities Extending Beyond the Waiver Period If a construction activity extends beyond the approved waiver period due to circumstances beyond the control of the operator,the operator must either: (a) recalculate the rainfall erosivity factor R factor using the original start date and a new projected ending date, and if the R factor is still under five (5), submit a new waiver certification form at least two(2)days before the end of the original waiver period; or (b) obtain authorization under this general permit according to the requirements delineated in either Part II.D.2. or Part II.D.3.at least two(2)days before the end of the approved waiver period. Section G. Alternative TPDES Permit Coverage 1, Individual Permit Alternative Any discharge eligible for coverage under this general permit may alternatively be authorized under an individual TPDES permit according to 30 TAC Chapter 305 (relating to Consolidated Permits). Applications for individual permit coverage should be submitted at least three hundred and thirty (330) days prior to commencement of construction activities to ensure timely issuance. 2. Individual Permit Required The executive director may suspend an authorization or NOI in accordance with the procedures set forth in 30 TAC Chapter 205, including the requirement that the executive director provide written notice to the permittee. The executive director may require an operator of a construction site, otherwise eligible for authorization under this general permit,to apply for an individual TPDES permit because of: (a) the conditions of an approved TMDL or TMDL implementation plan; (b) the activity is determined to cause a violation of water quality standards or is found to cause, or contribute to, the loss of a designated use of surface water in the state: and (c) any other considerations defined in 30 TAC Chapter 205 would include the provision at 30 TAC § 205.4(c)(3)(D), which allows TCEQ to deny authorization under the general permit and require an individual permit if a discharger"has been determined by the executive director to have been out .w of compliance with any rule, order,or permit of the commission,including non-payment of fees assessed by the executive director." Page 17 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 3. Any discharge eligible for authorization under this general permit may alternatively be authorized under a separate, applicable general permit according to 30 TAC w Chapter 205 (relating to General Permits for Waste Discharges). Section H. Permit Expiration This general permit shall be issued for a term not to exceed five(5)years. Following public notice and comment, as provided by 30 TAC § 205.3 (relating to Public Notice, Public Meetings, and Public Comment),the commission may amend,revoke,cancel,or renew this general permit. If the TCEQ publishes a notice of its intent to renew or amend this general permit before the expiration date,the permit will remain in effect for existing,authorized,discharges until the commission takes final action on the permit. Upon issuance of a renewed or amended permit, permittees may be required to submit an NOI within 90 days following the effective date of the renewed or amended permit,unless that permit provides for an alternative method for obtaining authorization. In the event that the general permit is not renewed,discharges that are authorized under the general permit must obtain either a TPDES individual permit or coverage under an alternative general permit. Part III. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWP3) Storm water pollution prevention plans must be prepared for storm water discharges that will reach Waters of the United States, including discharges to MS4 systems and privately owned separate storm sewer systems that drain to Waters of the United States, to identify and address potential sources of pollution that are reasonably expected to affect the quality of discharges from the construction site,including off-site material storage areas,overburden and stockpiles of dirt,borrow areas,equipment staging areas,vehicle repair areas,fueling areas,etc.,used solely by the permitted project. The SWP3 must describe and ensure the implementation of practices that will be used to reduce the pollutants in storm water discharges associated with construction activity at the construction site and assure compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit. Individual operators at a site may develop separate SWP3s that cover only their portion of the project provided reference is made to the other operators at the site. Where there is more than one SWP3 for a site,permittees must coordinate to ensure that BMPs and controls are consistent, and do not negate or impair the effectiveness of each other. Regardless of whether a single comprehensive SWP3 is developed, or separate SWP3s are developed for each operator, it is the responsibility of each operator to ensure that compliance with the terms and conditions of this general permit is met in the areas ofthe construction site where that operator has operational control over construction plans and specifications or day-to-day operational control. Section A. Shared SWP3 Development For more effective coordination of BMPs and opportunities for cost sharing,a cooperative effort by the different operators at a site is encouraged. Operators must independently submit an NOI and obtain authorization, but may work together to prepare and implement a single comprehensive SWP3 for the entire construction site. Page 18 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 1. The SWP3 must clearly list the name and, for large construction activities, the general permit authorization numbers, for each operator that participates in the shared SWP3. Until the TCEQ responds to receipt of the NOI with a general permit authorization number,the SWP3 must specify the date that the NOI was submitted to TCEQ by each operator. Each participant in the shared plan must also sign the SWP3. 2. The SWP3 must clearly indicate which operator is responsible for satisfying each raw shared requirement of the SWP3. If the responsibility for satisfying a requirement is not described in the plan,then each permittee is entirely responsible for meeting the requirement within the boundaries of the construction site where they perform construction activities. The SWP3 must clearly describe responsibilities formeeting each requirement in shared or common areas. Section B. Responsibilities of Operators 1. Operators with Control Over Construction Plans and Specifications All operators with operational control over construction plans and specifications to the extent necessary to meet the requirements and conditions of this general permit must: (a) ensure the project specifications allow or provide that adequate BMPs may be developed to meet the requirements of Part III of this general permit; (b) ensure that the SWP3 indicates the areas of the project where they have LWA operational control over project specifications(including the ability to make modifications in specifications); (c) ensure all other operators affected by modifications in project specifications are notified in a timely manner such that those operators may modify best management practices as are necessary to remain compliant with the conditions of this general permit; and (d) ensure that the SWP3 for portions of the project where they are operators indicates the name and TPDES permit numbers for permittees with the day- to-day operational control over those activities necessary to ensure compliance with the SWP3 and other permit conditions. In the case that responsible parties have not been identified,the permittee with operational control over project specifications must be considered to be the responsible party until such time as the authority is transferred to another party and the plan is updated. Page 19 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 2. Operators with Day-to-Day Operational Control Operators with day-to-day operational control of those activities at a project that are necessary to ensure compliance with a SWP3 and other permit conditions must: (a) ensure that the SWP3 for portions of the project where they are operators meets the requirements of this general permit; (b) ensure that the SWP3 identifies the parties responsible for implementation of best management practices described in the plan; (c) ensure that the SWP3 indicates areas of the project where they have operational control over day-to-day activities; (d) ensure that the SWP3 indicates,for areas where they have operational control over day-to-day activities,the name and TPDES permit number ofthe parties with operational control over project specifications(including the ability to make modifications in specifications). Section C. Deadlines for SWP3 Preparation and Compliance 1. The SWP3 must be: (a) completed prior to obtaining authorization under this general permit; (b) implemented prior to commencing construction activities that result in soil disturbance; (c) updated as necessary to reflect the changing conditions of new operators, new areas of responsibility, and changes in best management practices; and (d) prepared so that it provides for compliance with the terms and conditions of this general permit. Section D. Plan Review and Making Plans Available 1. The SWP3 must be retained on-site at the construction site or,if the site is inactive or does not have an on-site location to store the plan, a notice must be posted describing the location of the SWP3. The SWP3 must be made readily available at the time of an on-site inspection to: the executive director;a federal,state, or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans, grading plans, or storm water management plans; local government officials; and the operator of a municipal 2n separate storm sewer receiving discharges from the site. 2. Operators of a large construction activity obtaining authorization to discharge through submission of a NOI must post a notice near the main entrance of the Page 20 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 construction site. If the construction project is a linear construction project (e.g. pipeline,highway,etc.),the notice must be placed in a publicly accessible location near where construction is actively underway. Notice for these linear sites may be relocated, as necessary, along the length of the project. The notice must be readily available for viewing by the general public, local,state,and federal authorities,and contain the following information: (a) the TPDES general permit number for the project(or a copy of the NOI that was submitted to the TCEQ if a permit number has not yet been assigned); (b) the name and telephone number of a representative for the operator; (c) a brief description of the project; and (d) the location of the SWP3. 3. This permit does not provide the general public with any right to trespass on a construction site for any reason,including inspection of a site;nor does this permit require that permittees allow members of the general public access to a construction site. Section E. Keeping Plans Current The permittee must revise or update the storm water pollution prevention plan whenever: 1. there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance that has a significant effect on the discharge of pollutants and that has not been previously U, III addressed in the SWP3; or 2. results of inspections or investigations by site operators, operators of a municipal separate storm sewer system receiving the discharge, authorized TCEQ personnel, or a federal,state or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans indicate the SWP3 is proving ineffective in eliminating or significantly minimizing pollutants in discharges authorized under this general permit. Section F. Contents of SWP3 The SWP3 must include,at a minimum,the information described in this section. 1. A site description, or project description must be developed to include: (a) a description of the nature of the construction activity, potential pollutants P and sources; (b) a description of the intended schedule or sequence of major activities that will disturb soils for major portions of the site; Page 21 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (c) the total number of acres of the entire property and the total number of acres where construction activities will occur, including off-site material storage areas, overburden and stockpiles of dirt, and borrow areas; (d) data describing the soil or the quality of any discharge from the site; (e) a map showing the general location of the site (e.g. a portion of a city or county map); (f) a detailed site map(or maps) indicating the following: (i) drainage patterns and approximate slopes anticipated after major grading activities; (ii) areas where soil disturbance will occur; (iii) locations of all major structural controls either planned or in place; (iv) locations where stabilization practices are expected to be used; (v) locations of off-site material, waste, borrow, fill, or equipment storage areas; (vi) surface waters (including wetlands) either adjacent or in close proximity; and (vii) locations where storm water discharges from the site directly to a surface water body. (g) the location and description of asphalt plants and concrete plants providing support to the construction site and authorized under this general permit; (h) the name of receiving waters at or near the site that will be disturbed or that will receive discharges from disturbed areas of the project; and (i) a copy of this TPDES general permit. 2. The SWP3 must describe the best management practices that will be used to minimize pollution in runoff. The description must identify the general timing or sequence for implementation. At a minimum, the description must include the following components: (a) Erosion and Sediment Controls (i) Erosion and sediment controls must be designed to retain sediment on-site to the extent practicable with consideration for local Page 22 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 topography, soil type, and rainfall. Controls must also be designed and utilized to reduce the offsite transport of suspended sediments and other pollutants if it is necessary to pump or channel standing water from the site. (ii) Control measures must be properly selected, installed, and maintained according to the manufacturer's or designer's specifications. If periodic inspections or other information indicates a control has been used incorrectly,or that the control is performing inadequately,the operator must replace or modify the control as soon as practicable after discovery that the control has been used incorrectly,is performing inadequately, or is damaged. (iii) Sediment must be removed from sediment traps and sedimentation ponds no later than the time that design capacity has been reduced by 50%. (iv) If sediment escapes the site, accumulations must be removed at a frequency to minimize further negative effects, and whenever feasible,prior to the next rain event. (v) Controls must be developed to limit,to the extent practicable,offsite transport of litter,construction debris, and construction materials. UJ_f (b) Stabilization Practices The SWP3 must include a description of interim and permanent stabilization practices for the site, including a schedule of when the practices will be implemented. Site plans should ensure that existing vegetation is preserved where it is possible. T (i) Stabilization practices may include but are not limited to: establishment of temporary vegetation, establishment of permanent vegetation,mulching,geotextiles,sod stabilization,vegetative buffer strips, protection of existing trees and vegetation, and other similar measures. (ii) The following records must be maintained and either attached to or referenced in the SWP3,and made readily available upon request to the parties in Part III.D.l of this general permit: (a) the dates when major grading activities occur; (b) the dates when construction activities temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the site; and Page 23 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (c) the dates when stabilization measures are initiated. (iii) Stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased,and except as provided in(a)through(c)below, must be initiated no more than fourteen (14) days after the construction activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently ceased. (a) Where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity temporarily or permanently ceased is precluded by snow cover or frozen ground conditions, stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. (b) Where construction activity on a portion of the site is temporarily ceased, and earth disturbing activities will be resumed within twenty-one(2 1)days,temporary stabilization measures do not have to be initiated on that portion of site. (c) In and areas(areas with an average rainfall of 0 to 10 inches), semiarid areas(areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches), and areas experiencing droughts where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity has temporarily or permanently ceased is precluded by seasonably and conditions, stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. 3. Structural Control Practices The SWP3 must include a description of any structural control practices used to divert flows away from exposed soils,to limit the contact of runoff with disturbed areas, or to lessen the off-site transport of eroded soils. (a) Sediment basins are required,where feasible for common drainage locations that serve an area with ten (10) or more acres disturbed at one time, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2-year, 24-hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, or equivalent control measures, shall be provided where attainable until final stabilization of the site.Where rainfall data is not available or a calculation cannot be performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained is required where attainable until final stabilization of the site. When calculating the volume of runoff from a 2-year,24-hour storm event,it is not required to include the flows from offsite areas and flow from onsite areas that are either undisturbed or have already undergone final stabilization, if Page 24 AFS� TPDES General Permit TXR150000 these flows are diverted around both the disturbed areas of the site and the sediment basin. In determining whether installing a sediment basin is feasible,the permittee may consider factors such as site soils,slope,available area on site, public safety, precipitation patterns, site geometry, site vegetation,infiltration capacity,geotechnical factors,depth to groundwater and other similar considerations. Where sediment basins are not feasible, equivalent control measures,which may include a series of smaller sediment basins,must be used. At a minimum,silt fences,vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries(and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions)of the construction area. (b) Sediment traps and sediment basins may also be used to control solids in storm water runoff for drainage locations serving less than ten(10)acres. At a minimum, silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries(and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions)of the construction. Alternatively,a sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2-year, 24-hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, or equivalent control measures, may be provided or where rainfall data is not available or a calculation cannot be performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained may be provided. 4. Permanent Storm Water Controls A description of any measures that will be installed during the construction process to control pollutants in storm water discharges that will occur after construction operations have been completed must be included in the SWP3. Permittees are only responsible for the installation and maintenance of storm water management measures prior to final stabilization of the site or prior to submission of an NOT. 5. Other Controls (a) Off-site vehicle tracking of sediments and the generation of dust must be minimized. (b) The SWP3 must include a description of construction and waste materials expected to be stored on-site and a description of controls to reduce pollutants from these materials. (c) The SWP3 must include a description of pollutant sources from areas other than construction(including storm water discharges from dedicated asphalt plants and dedicated concrete plants), and a description of controls and measures that will be implemented at those sites to minimize pollutant discharges. Page 25 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (d) Velocity dissipation devices shall be placed at discharge locations and along the length of any outfall channel to provide anon-erosive flow velocity from the structure to a water course so that the natural physical and biological characteristics and functions are maintained and protected. 6. Approved State and Local Plans (a) Permittees must ensure the SWP3 is consistent with requirements specified in applicable sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by federal, state, or local officials. (b) SWP3s must be updated as necessary to remain consistent with any changes applicable to protecting surface water resources in sediment erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by state or local official for which the permittee receives written notice. 7. Maintenance All erosion and sediment control measures and other protective measures identified in the SWP3 must be maintained in effective operating condition. If through inspections the permittee determines that BMPs are not operating effectively, maintenance must be performed before the next anticipated storm event or as necessary to maintain the continued effectiveness of storm water controls. If maintenance prior to the next anticipated storm event is impracticable,maintenance must be scheduled and accomplished as soon as practicable. Erosion and sediment controls that have been intentionally disabled, run-over, removed, or otherwise rendered ineffective must be replaced or corrected immediately upon discovery. 8. Inspections of Controls In the event of flooding or other uncontrollable situations which prohibit access to the inspection sites,inspections must be conducted as soon as access is practicable (a) Personnel provided by the permittee and familiar with the SWP3 must inspect disturbed areas of the construction site that have not been finally stabilized, areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation, and structural controls for evidence of, or the potential for, - pollutants entering the drainage system. Sediment and erosion control measures identified in the SWP3 must be inspected to ensure that they are operating correctly. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site must be inspected for evidence of off-site sediment tracking. Inspections must be conducted at least once every fourteen(14)calendar days and within twenty four(24)hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater. Page 26 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 Where sites have been finally or temporarily stabilized, where runoff is unlikely due to winter conditions (e.g. site is covered with snow, ice, or frozen ground exists), or during seasonal and periods in and areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 0 to 10 inches)and semi-arid areas(areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches), inspections must be conducted at least once every month. As an alternative to the above-described inspection schedule of once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (24) hours of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater, the SWP3 may be developed to require that these inspections will occur at least once every seven(7) calendar days. If this alternative schedule is developed, the inspection must occur on a specifically defined day,regardless of whether or not there has been a rainfall event since the previous inspection. (b) Utility line installation, pipeline construction, and other examples of long, narrow,linear construction activities may provide inspection personnel with limited access to the areas described in Part III.F.8.(a)above. Inspection of these areas could require that vehicles compromise temporarily or even permanently stabilized areas, cause additional disturbance of soils, and increase the potential for erosion. In these circumstances, controls must be inspected at least once every fourteen(14)calendar days and within twenty four(24)hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches, but representative inspections may be performed. For representative inspections, personnel must inspect controls along the construction site for 0.25 mile above and below each access point where aroadway,undisturbed right-of-way,or other similar feature intersects the construction site and allows access to the areas described in Part III.F.8.(a)above. The conditions of the controls along each inspected 0.25 mile segment may be considered as representative of the condition of controls along that reach extending from the end of the 0.25 mile segment to either the end of the next 0.25 mile inspected segment, or to the end of the project, whichever occurs first. As an alternative to the above-described inspection schedule of once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (24) hours of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater, the SWP3 may be developed to require that these inspections will occur at least once every seven(7)calendar days. If this alternative schedule is developed, the inspection must occur on a specifically defined day,regardless of whether or not there has been a rainfall event since the previous inspection. (c) The SWP3 must be modified based on the results of inspections, as necessary,to better control pollutants in runoff. Revisions to the SWP3 must be completed within seven (7) calendar days following the inspection. If existing BMPs are modified or if additional BMPs are necessary, an implementation schedule must be described in the SWP3 and wherever Page 27 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 possible those changes implemented before the next storm event. If implementation before the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, these changes must be implemented as soon as practicable. (d) A report summarizing the scope of the inspection,names and qualifications of personnel making the inspection, the dates of the inspection, and major observations relating to the implementation of the SWP3 must be made and retained as part of the SWP3. Major observations should include: The locations of discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the site; locations of BMPs that need to be maintained;locations of BMPs that failed to operate as designed or proved inadequate for a particular location; and locations where additional BMPs are needed. Actions taken as a result of inspections must be described within, and retained as a part of,the SWP3. Reports must identify any incidents of non- compliance. Where a report does not identify any incidents of non- compliance,the report must contain a certification that the facility or site is in compliance with the SWP3 and this permit. The report must be signed by the person and in the manner required by 30 TAC § 305.128 (relating to Signatories to Reports) 9. The SWP3 must identify and ensure the implementation of appropriate pollution prevention measures for all eligible non-storm water components of the discharge. Part IV.Numeric Effluent Limitations Section A. Limitations s All discharges of storm water runoff from concrete batch plants that qualify for coverage,and that are authorized to discharge storm water under the provisions of this general permit must be monitored at the following monitoring frequency and comply with the following numeric effluent limitations: Limitations Monitoring Parameter Daily Maximum FreguenZL Total Suspended Solids 65 mg/I 1/Year* Oil and Grease 15 mg/I 1/Year* pH between 6 and 9 standard units 1/Year* * If discharge occurs. Section B. Reporting Requirements Results of monitoring for determining compliance with numeric effluent limitations must be recorded on a discharge monitoring report(DMR). The DMR must either be an original EPA No. 3320-1 form(Attachment 3 of this general permit),a duplicate of the form,or as otherwise provided by the executive director. Monitoring must be conducted prior to December 31'for each annual Page 28 r S'J Ll J- , TPDES General Permit TXR150000 monitoring period. A copy of the DMR must either be retained at the facility or shall be made readily available for review by authorized TCEQ personnel upon request,by March 31'following the end of each annual monitoring period. If the results indicate the violation of one or more of these numeric limitations, the permittee must also submit the DMR to the TCEQ's Information Resources Center(MC 212)by March 31'of each annual monitoring period. Part V. Retention of Records The permittee must retain the following records for a minimum period of three(3)years from the date that a NOT is submitted as required by Part II.D. For activities that are not required to submit an NOT,records shall be retained for a minimum period of three(3)years from the date that either: final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee;or another permitted operator has assumed control according to over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized. Records include: 1. A copy of the SWP3 plan. 2. All reports and actions required by this permit,including a copy of the construction site notice. 3. All data used to complete the NOI, if an NOI is required for coverage under this general permit. Part Vl. Standard Permit Conditions 1. The permittee has a duty to comply with all permit conditions. Failure to comply with any permit condition is a violation of the permit and statutes under which it was issued, and is grounds for enforcement action,for terminating coverage under this general permit,or for requiring a discharger to apply for and obtain an individual TPDES permit. 2. Authorization under this general permit may be suspended or revoked for cause. Filing a notice of planned changes or anticipated non-compliance by the permittee does not stay any permit condition. The permittee must furnish to the executive director, upon request and within a reasonable time,any information necessary for the executive director to determine whether cause exists for revoking, suspending, or terminating authorization under this permit. Additionally, the permittee must provide to the executive director, upon request, copies of all records that the permittee is required to maintain as a condition of this general permit. 3. It is not a defense for a discharger in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity to maintain compliance with the permit - conditions. 4. Inspection and entry shall be allowed under Texas Water Code Chapters 26-28,Health and Safety Code§§361.032-361.033 and 361.037, and 40 Code of Federal Regulations(CFR) §122.41(i). The statement in Texas Water Code§26.014 that commission entry of a facility shall occur according to an establishment's rules and regulations concerning safety,internal security,and fire protection is not grounds for denial or restriction of entry to any part of the Page 29 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 facility or site,but merely describes the commission's duty to observe appropriate rules and regulations during an inspection. 5. The discharger is subject to administrative,civil,and criminal penalties,as applicable,under Texas Water Code§§26.136,26.212,and-26.213 for violations including but not limited to the following: a. negligently or knowingly violating CWA, §§301,302,306, 307, 308, 318, or 405, or any condition or limitation implementing any sections in a permit issued under CWA,§402,or any requirement imposed in a pretreatment program approved under CWA, §§402(a)(3)or 402(b)(8); b. knowingly making any false statement,representation,or certification in any record or other document submitted or required to be maintained under a permit,including monitoring reports or reports of compliance or noncompliance. 6. All reports and other information requested by the executive director must be signed by the person and in the manner required by 30 TAC§305.128(relating to Signatories to Reports). 7. Authorization under this general permit does not convey property or water rights of any sort and does not grant any exclusive privilege. Part VII. Fees Section A. Application Fees An application fee of $100 must be submitted with each NOI for coverage of a large construction activity. A fee is not required for submission of an NOT or NOC letter. Section B. Water Quality Fees Large construction activities authorized under this general permit must pay an annual Water Quality Fee of$100 under Texas Water Code 26.0291 and according to TAC Chapter 205 (relating to General Permits for Waste Discharges).

EXECUTED this the day of 2004 GRANTOR: Richard Barberena (Please Print) (Signature) 4n Va Vendor Compliance to State Law VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts to non-resident bidders. This law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, non-resident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a non-resident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the state in which the non-resident's principal place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or non- resident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non- resident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by state law. A copy of the statute is attached. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders. b. Our principal place of business of corporate offices are in the State of Texas.

Terrorism is defined as any act certified by the Secretary of the Treasury, in concurrence with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the United States, to be an act of terrorism; to be a violent act or an act that is dangerous to human life, property or infrastructure; to have resulted in damage within the United States, or outside the United States in the case of an air carrier or vessel or the premises of a United States Mission; and to have been committed by an individual or individuals acting on behalf of any foreign person or foreign interest,as part of an effort to coerce the civilian population of the United States or to influence the policy or affect the conduct of the United States Government by coercion. Coverage for acts of terrorism is already included in the captioned Surety Bond. You should know that, effective November 26, 2002, any losses caused by acts of terrorism covered by your Surety Bond will be partially reimbursed by the United States under the formula set forth in the Act. Under this formula, the United States of America pays 90%of covered terrorism losses that exceed the statutorily established deductible to be paid by the insurance company providing the coverage. The portion of your premium that is attributable to coverage for such acts of terrorism is zero, because we could not distinguish (and separately charge for) acts of terrorism from other causes of loss when we calculated your premium. If you have any questions about this notice,please contact your agent or broker. c1—IUIBIB IMPORTANT NOTICE ffi To obtain information or make a complaint: You may contact the Texas Department of Insurance to obtain information on companies, coverages, rights or complaints at: 1-800-252-3439 You may write the Texas Department of Insurance at: P.O.
