DEA will make contact with the Division of Water about these projects. • We have been successful by adding the following to the CAP and as a special note in the contract documents: • The storm water discharge from this project drains into a (example: stream and a lake) that are sensitive waters. The contractor will be expected to establish, inspect and maintain effective erosion and sediment controls in strict conformance with the KPDES permit requirements, especially Part IV B (1) of the permit, and sections 212 and 213 of the standard specifications with emphasis on use of temporary mulch during construction. • A graphic showing the proximity of the project to the sensitive or TMDL water should be included in the contract documents.
