1.1.2 Compliance with Requirements and Commitments RFP ITP Appendix B § 1.3 (b)

1.1.2.1 Compliance The environmental compliance requirements for this project have been compiled in Book 2 – Section 4 of the RFP, from the following documents: Appendix H - Minimization/ Mitigation Monitoring Program of the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR)/ Environmental Assessment (EA), in applicable federal, California, City of Long Beach and other agency statutes and regulations, and elsewhere. Merely to identify all the compliance requirements would be a daunting task for another contractor. Fortunately, SFI has the deep understanding of environmental issues and the organizational skills to translate the requirements into a clearly understandable set of project tasks that can be evaluated and tracked in both design and construction. The heart of our compliance services will be an Environmental Compliance Plan (ECP) and its accompanying Microsoft Access compliance tracking database. These are discussed in Sections 1.3.2.2 and 1.3.3.

1.1.2.2 Methodology/Process The first step in managing environmental compliance during design and construction will be to identify the applicable environmental requirements. We will identify these requirements by reviewing Book 2, Section 4 of the RFP, the Final Environmental Impact

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 51

Shimmick Construction Company, Inc./FCC Construcción S.A./Impregilo S.p.A., a Joint Venture Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project Proposal

Report (FEIR)/Environmental Assessment (EA), the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP), the Record of Decision, and other project-specific documents. We will also review the detailed provisions of applicable federal, state and local regulations that apply to the project. After this review, we will prepare a comprehensive list of discrete requirements (for example, “Prepare a health and safety plan”) that can be scheduled, implemented, tracked, and documented. The platform for the compliance tracking will be a Microsoft Access database. Each requirement will have a unique record in the database; fields will include an activity description, implementing party (SFI, Caltrans, etc.), pertinent regulatory agency or agencies, starting dates, planned and actual completion dates, and other attributes to aid in record searching and reporting. In addition, each record will contain hyperlinks to the documents that require or describe the activity, such as the MMRP, specialty compliance plans, and permits. UltraSystems is currently using an Access database of this type to manage compliance with more than 1,000 environmental requirements for construction of the Imperial Solar Energy Center (ISEC) South project in Imperial County. We are also assisting in managing a similar database for permit conditions at the Sunshine Canyon Landfill. In addition to setting up and managing the compliance database, UltraSystems will design forms and procedures for self-certifying completion of compliance measures. The compliance certificate will be archived in the database. Another element of the environmental compliance management effort will be field monitoring to verify compliance. Finally, SFI and UltraSystems will prepare periodic and ad hoc reports on environmental compliance activities and status. The Access database will contain numerous standard queries and reports to summarize information on progress. These database-generated reports will support narratives describing and summarizing activities, issues, etc. in more detail.

1.1.3 Mitigation Plans RFP ITP Appendix B § 1.3 (c)

The SFI team will prepare an Environmental Compliance Plan (ECP) that will be a comprehensive roadmap and reference for environmental compliance during the design and construction processes. This document will be updated as needed, and will be available in hard-copy and electronic form to both office and field personnel. The ECP will contain a general section that identifies the main sources of the environmental requirements (the FEIR/EA, MMRP, etc.), assigns responsibilities to individuals and organizations, and provides contact information. The “heart” of the ECP, however, will be a set of specialized compliance plans, which will be provided as appendices. All elements of the ECP, including the specialized compliance plans, must be reviewed and approved by the Port and, where applicable, by pertinent regulatory agencies. SFI will prepare the following plans, some of which will be described in more detail later in the proposal: Mitigation Monitoring Implementation Plan (MMIP)

This plan will provide a summary of how SFI will implement the provisions of Book 2, Section 4 and Appendix H - Minimization/ Mitigation Monitoring Program of the FEIR/EA. In many cases the MMIP will refer to the issuespecific plans discussed below. The MMIP will also include a Microsoft Project Gantt chart showing the mitigation measures and monitoring requirements and their timing. This chart will be updated continually to reflect actual progress. Finally, the MMIP will include a Caltrans Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Record (MMRR), which is a spreadsheet listing compliance actions, responsibilities, actions taken, and activity dates. The information required for the MMRR will already be in the Microsoft Access database discussed in Section 1.3.2.2. We will use the database to create the MMRR. Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan

SFI will prepare a Spill Prevention, Control and

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 52

Shimmick Construction Company, Inc./FCC Construcción S.A./Impregilo S.p.A., a Joint Venture The Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project Proposal

Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan that describes measures to prevent, contain, clean up, remove, dispose, and mitigate oil spills caused by SFI and its subcontractors. The Plan will be in accordance with requirements of the Port and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (40 CFR Part 112), and include a notification list for containing and reporting. Contaminated Materials Management Plan

A Contaminated Materials Management Plan will be prepared to: 1) provide protocols to properly use, store, transport and dispose of hazardous materials and hazardous waste encountered during excavation activities; 2) provide emergency response procedures for unauthorized releases of hazardous materials and hazardous waste; 3) provide procedures for spill control and prevention of hazardous materials and hazardous waste; 4) specify employee training requirements to use, store, transport and dispose of hazardous materials and hazardous waste; and 5) establish record keeping and reporting requirements. Safety and Health Program for Hazardous Waste Operations

A Safety and Health Program for Hazardous Waste Operations will describe safety procedures to be used to protect workers potentially exposed to hazardous waste, and ensure proper precautions are taken to protect human health and safety. The Safety and Health Program will reference U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) standard and protocols as required. The plan will comply with Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 5192 (8 CCR 5192), and identify health effects and standards for known contaminants and the procedures designed to account for the potential for exposure to unknown substances. Construction Noise Monitoring Plan/Noise Control and Monitoring Plan

This plan, which is described in detail in Section 1.3.3.7, will ensure that noise exposure limits and other noise-related requirements in the Contract and in local regulations are followed. It will contain a description of potential noise impacts; methods for reducing noise from

sources, along transmission points and at sensitive receivers; and procedures for monitoring compliance during construction. Health and Safety Plan

The purpose of the Health and Safety Plan (HASP) is to protect the employees of SFI and its subcontractors from occupational hazards and illness while they are working on this project. The HASP is described in detail in Section 1.3.3.12. Air Quality Management Plan

The Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP), which will be prepared by UltraSystems, will have three main purposes: ■ Compliance with the conditions and specifications enumerated in Book 2, Section 4, Section 4.4.1.4 of the RFP. ■ Compliance with South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 403 and other pertinent regulations. ■ Implementation of applicable provisions of the San Pedro Bay Ports Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP). The AQMP will begin by summarizing the air quality issues identified in the FEIR/EA. It will then identify and organize the regulatory and CAAP requirements by design and construction phase, and designate who will be responsible for implementing each air pollution control measure. The plan will also prescribe methods for monitoring compliance with the AQMP’s provisions. One compliance tool will be a database to keep records on engine characteristics and fuel sulfur, to demonstrate compliance with EPA, ARB and CAAP standards. Finally, the plan will prescribe methods for documenting and responding to air quality-related concerns of the Port, regulatory agencies and the local community during design and construction. Asbestos Control Management Plan

The purpose of this plan is to prevent worker and public exposure to airborne asbestos during demolition, handling, storage or transport of asbestos containing materials (ACM). The plan is described in detail in Section 1.3.3.9.

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 53

Shimmick Construction Company, Inc./FCC Construcción S.A./Impregilo S.p.A., a Joint Venture Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project Proposal

Lead Compliance Plan

Lead-based paint (LBP) may be present on the bridge structure, in buildings that may be demolished, and in yellow striping on pavement. In addition, years of traffic on the bridge and surrounding areas may have resulted in aerially deposited lead (ADP) on ground and structural surfaces. SFI will prepare a lead compliance plan to survey for lead and to manage and/or dispose of lead-contaminated materials. This plan is discussed in detail in Sections 1.3.3.6 and 1.3.3.10. Contaminated Groundwater Contingency Plan

The Phase II Environmental Site Assessment found that groundwater in the unconfined aquifers in the project area has levels of gasoline-range total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA), chlorinated volatile organic compounds (VOCs), benzene, naphthalene, and toluene that are not considered hazardous but would be subject to special handling requirements because the detected contaminants may exceed the wastewater discharge criteria established in the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board’s General NPDES Permit No. CAG994004. In addition, a deeper confined aquifer, which is under artesian conditions, is believed to have benzene concentrations up to 1,400 micrograms per liter. An Artesian Mitigation and Contingency Plan is discussed below. The Contaminated Groundwater Contingency Plan will cover circumstances in which groundwater cannot be directly discharged to the storm or sanitary sewer because it contains contaminant concentrations in excess of permit limits or contains free petroleum products. The Plan will contain the following elements: ■ Estimates of the temporary construction dewatering volumetric rate. ■ Procedures and specifications for sampling and analyzing groundwater to be removed from the site. ■ Selection and detailed description of a portable groundwater treatment system. ■ Procedures for measuring and recording the rate of groundwater discharge during dewatering.

■ Procedures for preparing and submitting weekly discharge reports. Groundwater Level Monitoring Plan

The purpose of the Groundwater Level Monitoring Plan, which is discussed in detail in Section 1.3.3.11 is to specify how groundwater levels in unconfined aquifers and the piezometric head in the artesian aquifer are to be monitored before, during and after construction. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan

A storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) will be prepared to control storm water runoff from construction areas and comply with Construction Activities Storm Water General Permit. The SWPPP will be prepared as part of the NPDES permitting process described in Section 1.3.3.1 of this proposal. Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan

During the design phase, SFI will prepare a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan to minimize erosion and the impacts thereof. The plan will have two main parts, one covering construction and the other for the postconstruction phase. This subject is addressed further in Section 1.3.3.5 of this proposal. Generated Waste Management Plan

SFI will prepare a Generated Waste Management Plan to ensure that hazardous waste generated by the project will be handled and disposed in accordance with Title 22, Division 4.5 of the California Code of Regulations and other applicable requirements. The plan will identify the types of hazardous wastes generated during each construction phase and estimate their amounts. From this analysis, SFI will determine whether the project will be considered a small quantity generator and, therefore, which requirements will apply. The plan will then ■ Provide protocols to properly use, store, transport and dispose of hazardous waste. ■ Provide emergency response procedures for unauthorized releases of hazardous waste. ■ Specify employee training requirements to use, store, transport and dispose of hazardous waste. ■ Establish record keeping and reporting

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 54

requirements. Artesian Mitigation and Contingency Plan

The presence of elevated concentrations of benzene in confined aquifers under artesian conditions leads to concern of contamination of other aquifers and/or soils should the confined aquifer be breached during construction. The purpose of the Artesian Mitigation and Contingency Plan (AMCP) will be to specify how to control, stop, and seal artesian flows. Details of the AMCP are presented in Section 1.3.3.11 of this proposal.

1.1.3.1 Environmental Permitting According to Book 2, Section 4 of the RFP, SFI will be responsible for obtaining, maintaining and administering permits or approvals from the following agencies: Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB)

A complete Notice of Intent package (Notice of Intent, site map, and fee) and Notice of Termination (upon completion of each section) must be filed with the RWQCB. As required by the Municipal Storm Water National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit that is issued by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, new development and redevelopment projects are to incorporate storm water mitigation measures in a Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan (SUSMP). The purpose of the SUSMP is to reduce the quantity of rainfall and improve the quality of rainfall runoff that leaves the site. The SUSMP process involves the submittal of the following documents to the Watershed Protection Division (WPD) Plan Check Engineer: at least three set of signed and wet-stamped plans by a licensed engineer that include a site plan, grading plan, landscape plan, detail drawings of SUSMP BMPs, stencil detail for new catch basins, trash enclosure details, flow calculations, and Covenant and Agreement. After it is approved, the Project for which the SUSMP is prepared will be cleared through the Building & Safety PCIS (computer) system.

South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)

SCAQMD Rule 403(e) requires an owner to file a “Large Operation Notification” (SCAQMD Form 403 N) when it has active operations on property which contains 50 or more acres of disturbed surface area; or any earth-moving operation with a daily earth-moving or throughput volume of 5,000 cubic yards or more three times during a 365-day period. If this definition applies to the project, SFI will prepare a Form 403 N for submittal to the District, including a description of construction operations and maps of the site. In addition, the large operation status requires the Port to comply with all the mitigation measures in Table 2 of Rule 403 and, when measures therein are not sufficient to mitigate fugitive dust, the Port will have to comply with the applicable provisions of Table 3 of the Rule. Note that the Form 403 N must be submitted annually, as long as the criteria for a “large operation” are met. SFI will also implement Rule 403’s provisions for record keeping and providing a dust control supervisor. In addition, if it is necessary to decontaminate soil on-site, SFI will follow the applicable provisions of Rule 1166 (Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Decontamination of Soil). There is no “Rule 1166 permit” per se; rather, SFI will need to obtain permits to construct and operate for decontamination equipment. UltraSystems will prepare permit applications for the equipment and will develop a Site-Specific VOC Contaminated Soil Mitigation Plan that contains the elements prescribed by Rule 1166. State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB)

Section 402, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), of the Clean Water Act regulates non-point source discharges into Waters of the United States for dischargers whose projects disturb one or more acres of soil or whose projects disturb less than one acre but are part of a larger common plan of development that in total disturbs one or more acres. Dischargers are required to obtain coverage under the General Permit for Discharges of Storm Water Associated with Construction Activity Construction General

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 55

Shimmick Construction Company, Inc./FCC Construcción S.A./Impregilo S.p.A., a Joint Venture Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project Proposal

Permit Order 2009-0009-DWQ. The Port is already covered under the construction permit. SFI will prepare an application with project-specific information, including a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The SWPPP will contain a site map which shows the construction site perimeter, existing and proposed buildings, lots, roadways, storm water collection and discharge points, general topography both before and after construction, and drainage patterns across the project. The SWPPP must list Best Management Practices (BMPs) the discharger will use to protect storm water runoff and the placement of those BMPs. Additionally, the SWPPP must contain a visual monitoring program; a chemical monitoring program for "non-visible" pollutants to be implemented if there is a failure of BMPs; and a sediment monitoring plan if the site discharges directly to a water body listed on the 303(d) list for sediment. Section A of the Construction General Permit describes the elements that must be contained in a SWPPP. SFI will also prepare a Notice of Construction per Caltrans’ Statewide NPDES Storm Water Permit, Order No. 99-06-DWQ, NPDES No. CAS000003. Unless the RWQCB requires an individual permit, the storm water discharges from all Caltrans construction projects are covered under the statewide permit. Caltrans will be required to notify the Los Angeles RWQCB that a project is to be covered under the permit at least 30 days prior to the onset of construction. The Notification of Construction (CP-CEM-2002) will report the tentative start date, tentative duration, location of construction, description of project, an estimate of the number of affected acres, and the name and phone number of the resident engineer in charge of the project. The filing of this document will be equivalent to filing a Notice of Intent (NOI) under the Construction General Permit. California Department of Conservation, Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources

SFI will contact Long Beach Development Services to obtain information about applicable Long Beach and/or County of Los Angeles regulations regarding active or abandoned oil

and gas (O&G) wells. We will then, with the Port, obtain a "Construction Site Review Packet" from the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR). The plans will be reviewed and approved by the Division for the Owner to obtain a building permit from the City of Long Beach. The building plans that are submitted will illustrate the footprint of buildings and access obstructions and the surveyed location of O&G wells. O&G wells within building footprints or obstructing access with be properly excavated and tested for leakage. Some O&G wells may require additional plugging and venting. Standard review time will require four to six weeks. SFI’s design has decreased the impacts on Tidelands oil wells. We will coordinate early with Tidelands on our construction schedule and impacts on oil and gas wells. We anticipate that several oil wells impacted by the RID design will no longer need to be abandoned. City of Long Beach (Discretionary Approvals)

We will coordinate with the City of Long Beach for discretionary approvals. We anticipate that we will need building permits for the new Maintenance Facilities and traffic control permits for restriping and signing city intersections and streets. We anticipate traffic control permits for the following City facilities: ■ Intersection at SR 47 and I-710 ■ Pico Avenue and West 7th Street ■ Pico Avenue and Pier D Street ■ Pico Avenue and I-I-710 Ramps ■ Harbor Scenic Drive

Volume 2 – Section 1 – page 56

1.1.3.2 NEPA & CEQA Compliance The Port has already complied with NEPA and CEQA through preparation and approval of the Final Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Assessment document. Compliance will be complete upon application of the mitigation measures specified in Book 2, Section 4 and the Minimization and Mitigation Summary, Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project. SFI will track compliance with these measures by using the database described in Section 1.3.2.2.

1.1.3.3 Water Pollution Monitoring For all water quality monitoring that is required by permits, SFI will collect samples at the prescribed frequency and have them analyzed by a laboratory certified by the Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) of the California Department of Health for the water quality parameters of interest. Daily discharges of wastewater will be measured and recorded. SFI will submit certified monthly reports to the permitting agency within seven days of the end of each month. The reports will contain information on daily flows and laboratory results.

1.1.3.4 Stormwater Monitoring SFI will monitor stormwater as prescribed by the SWPPP prepared specifically for this Project.

1.1.3.5 Erosion and Sediment Control For each construction phase, SFI will identify best management practice (BMPs) most suitable for temporary erosion and sediment control including, but not limited to, those listed in Book 2, Section 4.4.1.8 of the RFP. Permanent erosion control BMPs will be designed to function with established vegetation after the project is complete. The requirements of Book 2, Section 14 (Highway Planting and Irrigation) of the RFP will be followed. SFI will assign a Certified Professional Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC) Supervisor to implement the Sediment and Erosion Control

Figure 1.1-3: Contaminated materials will be managed according to the Contaminated Materials Management Plan, and in compliance with Port specifications.

Plan discussed above. The SPESC will be responsible for the installation and maintenance of temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control and will perform weekly inspections.

1.1.3.6 Contaminated Materials Contaminated materials will be managed according to the Contaminated Materials Management Plan, and in compliance with Port Specification 02115 (Soil Handling and Disposal). Excavated contaminated materials will be hauled to either designated disposal areas or stockpiled on site and then processed for dewatering in gravity beds farming out VOCs and TPHs if possible. A well-defined schedule will be developed to classify contaminated materials including their locations and depths and given a Field ID. The contaminated areas will be surveyed and marked accordingly on the plans. The site to be worked on during a given day will be identified in the daily schedule that has been forwarded to UltraSystems and specifically names the Field ID location of the contaminated material. The material will be excavated to the limits defined on the plans and hauled to either an onsite location for storage and/or processing and reuse in accordance with required handling and stockpiling procedures or to an approved offsite location. The material will be hauled by an approved environmental transportation company. No excavation of contaminated materials will take place without approval from appropriate

government agencies.

1.1.3.7 Noise Control and Monitoring The FEIR/ES concluded that no adverse construction noise impacts are anticipated. However, in response to comments on the draft environmental document and in the interest of maintaining an acceptable noise environment, contract provisions will specify several noise minimization measures. The ECP will contain, as an appendix, a Noise Control and Monitoring Plan (NCMP), which SFI will use to ensure that all construction work shall be performed within permissible noise limits, work schedule limitations, contract requirements, governmental rules, and other constraints. The NCMP will follow the formats of the noise control plan and noise monitoring plan that UltraSystems prepared for the I-405 widening project in West Los Angeles. It will contain the following elements: ■ A compilation of construction noise-related project requirements, such as those identified in Book 2, Section 4.4.1.3 of the RFP; and the City of Long Beach Noise Ordinance. ■ An inventory of noise-sensitive receivers. ■ Descriptions of practical options for complying with the noise minimization requirements; these options will be organized into four categories: (1) construction planning options, (2) reduction at the source, (3) reduction along the noise path, and (4) reduction at the receiver. ■ Specifications for noise monitoring equipment. ■ Guidance on selecting monitoring sites, sampling frequency, and other monitoring parameters. ■ Methods of data collection and storage, including field sampling forms. ■ Procedures for responding to and documenting noise complaints. The NCMP will be updated at least every three months SFI will prepare and provide two training courses:

■ Education on noise abatement requirements, including responding to complaints. ■ Training for noise monitoring personnel, including basics of sound, field procedures, and how to operate the specific monitoring equipment to be deployed.

1.1.3.8 Cultural Resources, Historical, Archaeological The FEIR/EA concluded that no avoidance, minimization, and/or mitigation measures for cultural, historical or archaeological resources are required for this Project, and none are proposed, as long as work remains within the identified Project limits. However, following Book 2, Section 4.4.1.1, Port cultural resources staff will determine the need to obtain a reevaluation of this impact category should the Project be extended beyond its current limits. SFI has archaeological and historical specialists who can conduct surveys of the new area(s) and recommend mitigation measures if appropriate.

1.1.3.9 Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) According to the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, the bridge and appurtenances may have asbestos-containing building materials (ACM) in the form of expansion joint compound. In addition, if any of the building structures in the area north of Ocean Boulevard between Harbor Scenic Drive, and the GDB or the small commercial buildings located immediately southeast of the overpass at Pico Avenue and Ocean Boulevard are to be demolished, they should be screened for ACM. ACM surveys and abatement will be performed by qualified and certified personnel.

1.1.3.10 Yellow Thermoplastic & Paint In general, SFI will follow Caltrans Standard Special Condition Section 14-11.07 (Remove Yellow Traffic Stripe and Pavement Marking with Hazardous Waste Residue) in removing yellow thermoplastic paint from surfaces and disposing of the waste. Residue from removal of yellow thermoplastic and yellow painted traffic stripe and pavement marking contains heavy metals in concentrations that exceed

employees potentially exposed to hazardous materials and conditions. Subcontractors will be responsible for providing their own HASPs; however, these plans must be approved in writing by SFI before the subcontractors commence work on the Project site. The HASP will be consistent with all relevant National Institute for Safety and Health (NIOSH), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. Elements of the HASP will include: ■ Definitions of roles and responsibilities. ■ Types of project activities covered by the HASP. ■ Assessment of chemical and physical hazards. ■ Specification of personal protective equipment (PPE). ■ Required meetings. ■ Confined spaces restrictions. ■ Air monitoring, sampling and action levels. ■ Occupational noise monitoring and hearing protection. ■ Site work zones. ■ Decontamination. ■ Emergency contact information and medical treatment facilities. The HASP, which must be approved by a Certified Industrial Hygienist licensed by the American Board of Industrial Hygiene, will also contain appendices with detailed information on hazardous materials. SFI will distribute the HASP to all employees potentially exposed to contaminated materials.

1.1.4 Training RFP ITP Appendix B § 1.3.D

Environmental protection training of SFI employees (including management) and subcontractors (including truck drivers and equipment operators) will be required in the following areas: ■ The overall importance of environmental issues in achieving a successful project. ■ The particular environmental sensitivities of the Project. ■ Erosion and sediment control procedures in accordance with the SWPPP, including the functions and proper installation of BMPs.

■ Proper procedures for spill containment and cleanup. ■ Proper and safe handling and management of Contaminated Materials. ■ Protection of environmentally sensitive areas, visual recognition through fencing, and potential Project and personal liabilities resulting from environmentally sensitive areas damage/impact. ■ Lead compliance training for field workers prior to removing yellow thermoplastic striping. ■ Construction noise abatement requirements, noise monitoring techniques, and good practices to reduce noise levels. ■ Awareness of sensitive plan and animal species. SFI will prepare and implement a worker environmental awareness program (WEAP) to train its personnel in environmental issues, risks, mitigation measures and reporting. SFI team member UltraSystems recently prepared a highly successful WEAP for construction of the Imperial Solar Energy Center South project in Imperial County. Although the environmental issues in ISEC and Gerald Desmond Bridge projects differ, the process of worker training is the same. The first step in the WEAP program is to identify the environmental concerns and hazards of which workers need to be aware. Next, we will prepare instructional materials, including slide shows, videos, and pocket guides. Workers receive the training and are tested. Finally, the workers carry pocket guides in the field to ensure that they are continually aware of environmental concerns and what to do in various situations.

1.1.4.1 Training Means and Methods Environmental compliance and awareness training will be required for all SFI employees and subcontractors, including management personnel, equipment operators, and truck drivers. This training will be provided prior to commencement of work on the Project site. In addition, employees hired after construction starts must receive the training before they can

report to work in the field. One approach that has been successful in recent projects is to “train the trainers.” Management personnel receive the training and then become the trainers for the remaining employees and subcontractors, using the same materials as were originally furnished. The main training materials will consist of PowerPoint slide shows, videos, and reference materials. The reference materials consist of the various environmental compliance plans discussed elsewhere in this proposal. Hard copies of these plans will be made available at several locations in the field for ready reference. In addition, workers will carry tri-folds which summarize crucial information. For example, the tri-folds would show pictures of sensitive plant and animal species of concern. In addition to the pre-construction training, occasional topic-specific training will be provided as circumstances require. For certain critically important training, such as that for hazardous material management, participants will be given an examination to demonstrate their understanding. Workers who have completed a training session will be given certificates. They will also receive stickers to place visibly on their hard hats; this will demonstrate that they have met the training requirements before commencing work. Careful records will be kept of all training sessions and participation by individuals.

1.1.4.2 Content of Training The content of the training sessions will vary from topic to topic, but most will contain the following elements: Identification of Environmental Issues

This portion of the training will focus on the nature of the environmental concern. For example, for biological resources it will discuss sensitive species that might occur on site during construction and why they must be avoided and/or protected. For noise, the training will include the basics principles and physiological effects of noise exposure, important noise sources, and sensitive receivers in the Project vicinity. Response and Mitigation

This portion of the training will identify construction practices that are required by law and/or through mitigation measures that reduce environmental impacts. It will ensure that these mitigation measures will be a formal part of the workers’ job descriptions and that everyone is accountable. Reporting

Sometimes, such as in the case of discovery of cultural artifacts, workers are the first to identify the existence of an environmental issue. The training will therefore include the procedure for recording and reporting environmental issues.
