Manatee Harbor Survey Control

NOTE: There are two survey control monuments at this project that are named “872 6384 K”. One is from 2004 and the other is from 2007. Use caution when establishing staff gauges or calibrating equipment for “real time” positioning operations. Monument “872 6384 K (2004)” was positioned by a long term (>4 hours) GPS observation and is stored in the NGS OPUS-DB system having a permanent Identifier (PID) of BBBT27. This monument is mainly used for horizontal positioning.

Monument “872 6384 K TIDAL (2007)” is a “tidal datum mark”, and is often, but not always, used for vertical datum calibration and verification of field operations. Other tidal datum marks exist and the survey notes should be consulted to verify which was used for a specific survey.

SECTION 00 31 21 Page 12 SECTION 00 33 50 WEATHER, WATER STAGE AND TIDE DATA

1. The following water stage, wave, wind, and weather data are provided for inclusion into the subject Plans and Specifications. The following water level datums are provided for information only and are not to be utilized in conjunction with any contract related hydrographic surveying.

2. A technical review has been performed on the following data and this memo, signed by Chief, Water Resources Engineering Branch, signifies EN-W Branch Quality Control Certification.

a) Water Stages. Water levels in the project area are mainly affected by wind and tidal fluctuations of the Gulf of Mexico and Tampa Bay which are mixed (diurnal and semi-diurnal). The project area is also subject to storm surges from hurricanes and tropical storms from June through November. Surges from extratropical storms may affect the area during any time of the year.

Elevations of tidal datums in the vicinity of the project area are provided in the following table. All datum elevations in this table are referred to mean lower low water (MLLW). The datums in Table 1 and Table 2 are taken from tide station 8726384 (Port Manatee, FL) and tide station 8726572 (The Kitchen, FL) and are based on the 1983-2001 tidal epoch. The Port Manatee tide station tidal datum analysis period was established by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), on 1 December 1999 and continued to 30 November 2008. The Kitchen tide station tidal datum analysis period was established by the NOAA NOS, on 1 December 1978 and continued to 31 December 1978. It was then re- established on 1 February 1979 and continued to 31 March 1979. This tide station was established by the NOAA NOS. Additional information on these and other nearby tide stations is available at this NOAA website: https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/map/index.shtml?type=BenchMarkSheets®ion=Florida.

Data provided on this website includes wind speed, wind gusts, atmospheric pressure, air temperature, sea temperature, wave height, and wave period. Gage readings are updated hourly, and archived data is available for most stations. The website address for data relevant to this project site is http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/maps/Florida.shtml.

c) Weather Conditions. The project area is subject to tropical storms and hurricanes from June through November, and to windy and/or rainy weather during any time of the year. The climate of the area is essentially tropical, and temperatures below freezing are rare. The wet season in the project area is from May through October. Rainfall during these months is closely associated with convective activity. These rainfall events are normally of short duration and amounts are spatially variable. In general, the winter months constitute the dry season. Rainfall during the winter months is usually associated with mid-latitude systems (fronts and low pressure systems) and is distributed in a more spatially uniform pattern. Occasionally, daily rainfall in the dry season can be quite heavy as mid-latitude systems penetrate into central Florida. Dangerous thunderstorms can occur in this area at any time of the year.

It shall be the contractor's responsibility to obtain information concerning weather conditions in the project area. The Climate Data Online website http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/ published by NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (formerly the National Climatic Data Center) in Asheville, North Carolina contains climatological and meteorological observations and data relevant to this region. Available data includes quality controlled daily, monthly, seasonal, and yearly measurements of temperature, precipitation, wind, and degree days as well as radar data and 30-year climate normals.

The Summary of Monthly Normals product available at the following web link provides monthly average values for temperature, precipitation, and other information. The Tampa Intl AP, Florida, NOAA rain gage in proximity to the project location provides a Summary of Monthly Normals over the period of record from 1981 through 2010. This station is located at latitude 27° 58’ N, longitude 82° 32’ W and data can be accessed through: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo- web/datatools/normals

1.6 PARTNERING

Contracting Officer wants to have a bilateral project partnership with Contractor that draws on strengths of both organizations to identify and achieve common goals. Typical partnering goals include:

-- Effective and efficient contract performance -- Project completion on time and within budget -- Construction completed according to plans and specifications -- Development of cooperative management teams -- Project success with customer (stakeholders) satisfaction -- Improved Project communication

1.6.1 Initial Partnering Meeting

Contractor, key subcontractors and suppliers shall attend a one-day project "Partnering Meeting". The Partnering Meeting is a project team building workshop facilitated by qualified persons. Contracting Officer attendees and invited persons may include:

Administrative Contracting Officer (Area Engineer) Construction Quality Assurance Representatives Jacksonville District - Construction Branch persons Jacksonville District - Engineering Division Designers Local Sponsor (Owner) - Port of Tampa

Goal of initial Partnering Meeting is to build trust, identify common goals, and understand individual project members' expectations and organizational values. Usual results include better communication between

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 30 00 Page 5 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

contract parties, shortened project learning curve and a cohesive two party contract partnership. Participants usually sign a voluntary partnering agreement generally describing mutual obligation to cooperate to achieve project goals and maintain effective communication. Contracting Officer will pay costs for workshop site rental and facilitator fees.

1.6.2 Partnering Regroups

After initial Partnering Meeting participation will be voluntary in accordance with a signed Partnering Agreement. After initial Partnering Workshop, partnering sessions will be hosted by both parties on an alternating basis with the hosting party being responsible for all costs associated with their meeting. At no time will these costs be used to change the contract price. Partnering Agreements include provisions for Contracting Officer and Contractor to request "Partnering Regroups" when needed. A "Partnering Regroup" is usually a short (4 hours - 1 day) informal partnering session where senior level Contractor and Contracting Officer project members and other interested parties review project issues of concern. Issues of conflict are reviewed, attempt to affirm common project goals and understand concerns of other partner.

1.7 NOTICE TO PROCEED

Notice to proceed (NTP) will be issued 15 to 30 calendar days after award or after all required bonds are in place, whichever is later. If the Contractor has failed to submit and receive acceptance and/or approval of specified plans, including, but not limited to, Accident Prevention Plan - Section 01 35 26 GOVERNMENTAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS, Quality Control Plan - Section 01 45 05 DREDGING/BEACH FILL PLACEMENT - CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL, and Environmental Protection Plan - Section 01 57 20 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, or has not yet received the Contracting Officer's conditional approval to work under an interim plan, the Contractor shall not proceed with the work and shall consider the work to be suspended in accordance with the Suspension Of Work clause of the contract. While the Contractor is working under a conditionally accepted interim plan, funds may be retained from progress payments in accordance with the Payments Under Fixed-Price Construction Contracts clause of this contract until such time as the Contractor submits an acceptable plan. If the Contractor does not submit an acceptable plan within a reasonable time, as determined by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may order the Contractor to suspend work. Any suspension order issued for the Contractor's failure to submit an acceptable plan will not constitute unreasonable delay under the Suspension Of Work clause and the Contractor will not be entitled to an equitable adjustment of either performance period or contract price.

1.8 COORDINATION MEETING

Coordination Meeting is scheduled, convened and conducted by Contracting Officer after a Preconstruction Conference and prior to starting physical construction. Draft plans submitted after NOA (i.e., Quality Control Plan, Environmental Protection Plan and Accident Prevention Program) will have been reviewed.

1.1 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation; submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only. 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:

SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals

RMS3CM Schedules; G, RO

Bar Chart; G, RO

"S" Curve; G, RO

1.2 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULES

Use work breakdown structure of "CLINs", "Features" and "Pay Activities". "CLINs" are Contract Line Item Numbers from bid schedule. "Features" are quality control grouping of like "Pay Activities" requiring similar quality control. "Pay Activities" are scheduled work activities or events. Most "Pay Activities" have resources (time, money, labor, material and equipment). Use "Pay Activities" with no dollars allocate to schedule administrative work activities or events.

1.2.1 RMS3CM SCHEDULES

See Section 01 45 05 DREDGING/BEACH FILL PLACEMENT - CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL. After receipt of Notice of Award, create "Activity Schedule" and "Feature Schedule" in RMS3CM, in accordance with the terms of FAR 52.236-15 SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS. Submit RMS3CM Schedules as part of initial RMS3CM export. Data can be entered manually or Contractor has option to use standard data exchange format (SDEF.txt file). Cost allocate each "Pay Activity" to an assigned CLIN. Sum of "Pay Activities" must equal CLIN totals so there is no variance. "Features" duration is early start of first "Pay Activity" to late finish date of last "Pay Activity". Primavera P6 v6.x and later versions (v7.x and v8.x) allow export of a file for conversion to standard data exchange format (SDEF.txt) file format. Primavera provides a utility that will convert the export file to an SDEF.txt file. An SDEF.txt file can then be used to directly import the Primavera schedule into RMS3CM. The Contractor shall be responsible for providing all programs and hardware necessary to prepare initial and progress schedules. The required Primavera P6 Activity Code Structure is as follows:

1.2.2 Bar Chart with "S"Curve

Submit the initial Bar Chart with target "S" Curve no later than 15 to 30 calendar days after award or 30 calendar days after Notice to Proceed, whichever is later. Contractor may create a manual Bar Chart and "S" curve or use computer software of his choice. Scheduling software allows for easier updates and changes. See sample Bar Chart and "S" Curve below. The Bar Chart shall include an appropriate level of detail including activities, submittals, Government review periods, material/equipment delivery, utility outages, on-site construction, inspection, testing, and closeout activities. Contractor's submissions shall follow the direction of the Contracting Officer regarding reasonable activity durations. Reasonable durations are those that allow the progress of activities to be accurately determined between payment periods. All planned durations must take into account weather and climate data, work schedules, and contract restrictions on work periods. No single on-site construction activity shall exceed 30 days in duration without further breakdown in detail.

Contractor has an option to schedule an "early finish" date with "float" until contract required completion date. Schedules with "early finish" are for the benefit of the Contractor, and the Contracting Officer may elect to continue to make balanced progress payments based on funds availability. Neither Contractor nor Contracting Officer own "float" on early finish schedules. Contractor shall not claim added costs for delay for float used. When unit price CLINs have quantity variations and impact weighted percentage of a "Pay Activity" by five percent or more, revise bar chart and "S" Curve to accurately reflect impact of variation of estimated quantities. See the next page for sample Bar Chart and "S" Curve.

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.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 33 00 Page 6 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

1.8 GENERAL

The Contractor shall make submittals as required by the specifications using the RMS3CM 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 RMS3CM is a shared electronic database constantly updated by both Government and Contractor. The Government will provide initial RMS3CM export file to populate the RMS3CM submittal register in electronic format. This list may not be all inclusive, and additional submittals may be required. Examine contract drawings and specifications, verify RMS3CM 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 RMS3CM generated current Submittal Register ENG Form 4288, and Transmittal Log as RMS3CM reports. Submittal and Transmittal status are updated with each RMS3CM 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. RMS3CM 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:

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 33 00 Page 7 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

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 RMS3CM software. Use the RMS3CM 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 RMS3CM 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 RMS3CM to act as Approving Authority to code FIO submittals. The Government will use RMS3CM to prepare reviewer comments and code "G" submittal items. These comments and coding will update RMS3CM when the .RFX file update is imported by the Contractor from the RMS3CM 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.

The Government reserves the right to perform quality assurance on an "Information Only" submittal even after it has been approved by the Contractor's Approving Authority. See paragraph INFORMATION ONLY SUBMITTALS below.

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 RMS 3CM 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

RMS3CM creates a unique number using section number and generated number (01 30 00-X) for each submittal item. Also, RMS3CM 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 RMS3CM 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). Each drawing shall

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 33 00 Page 9 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

have a right side margin information block similar to contract drawings with project title, contract number, contractor/supplier names, section/submittal item number, drawing title, number and date, revision date, and approval box. Units shall be the same as those in contract drawings. Dimensions shall be to the scale shown or noted as "Not to Scale" (NTS).

1.12.5.2 Format for Construction Drawings

Construction drawings are large sized shop drawings for complex structures and systems, layout of site temporary construction (dewatering), mapping access, and land use descriptions. When required, prepare construction drawings on ANSI standard sizes C (17"x22") or E (34"x44") as directed by the Contracting Officer. The layout of construction drawings shall be as indicated in subparagraph "Format for Shop Drawings" above.

1.12.5.3 Format for Computer Aided Design (CAD) Drawings

CAD drawings may be transmitted on CD-ROM if approved by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall transmit the same number of CD-ROM disks as the number of hard copies required. Attach a copy of ENG Form 4025 on each CD-ROM disk case, and mark the contract and transmittal numbers on each CD-ROM disk. 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.

1.12.6 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 RMS3CM 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.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 33 00 Page 10 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

1.12.8 Proposing Variations

Use RMS3CM Transmittal Log to identify submittal items as variations. In "Remarks to Government", describe what the proposed variation is, how it differs from the contract, and why it is desirable and beneficial to the Government. Include estimate of cost savings if lower cost is a benefit.

1.12.9 Warranty Variations

Use the RMS3CM transmittal log "Remarks to Government" to warrant that the variation submitted for approval will be compatible with other work if incorporated.

1.12.10 Electronic Correspondence

All correspondence and contract related documents shall be submitted in searchable Adobe Portable File format (PDF) with the only exceptions being those stated at the end of this paragraph. Any documents that require signature shall be submitted in PDF format with signature. Minimum scan quality shall be 150 dpi. The Contracting Officer will discuss electronic correspondence procedures at Preconstruction and Coordination Meetings. These procedures may include sending files by e-mail, submitting on electronic media such as compact disks, a Contractor provided FTP site, a website indicated by the Contracting Officer at the Preconstruction Conference, or other methods approved by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall be responsible for the cost of the electronic media. Examples of correspondence and contract related documents that must be submitted in PDF format include, but are not limited to, Contractor serial letters, notifications to Contracting Officer, requests for equitable adjustment, change requests, claims, Contract Modifications (SF 30), QC Reports, RFIs, pay requests, meeting minutes, insurance certificates, schedules, shop drawings, submittals and ENG 4025 transmittal forms and supporting data. QC Reports will include all required attachments including QC Test Reports. Both a hard copy and a PDF file of the signed QC Report including required attachments shall be submitted daily. In addition, one month after the end of each month all QC Reports for the month shall be combined into one PDF and submitted. Submit copies of correspondence to other businesses, entities, or agencies such as "Notices to Mariners", permit required reports, and other contract related documents in PDF format. Include signatures if applicable for final versions of scanned contracts. All correspondence and contract related documents shall also be submitted in hard copy form, in the quantities and with the requirements listed in these documents, unless the Contractor obtains a waiver from the Contracting Officer. E-mail correspondence and payroll documentation do not have to be provided in PDF format.

1.13 CONTROL OF SUBMITTALS

The Contractor shall carefully control his procurement operations to ensure that each individual submittal is made on or before the Contractor scheduled submittal date shown on the approved "Submittal Register."

1.14 GOVERNMENT APPROVED SUBMITTALS

Upon completion of review of submittals requiring Government approval, the submittals will be identified as having received approval by being so stamped and dated. Two (2) copies of the submittal will be retained by the Contracting Officer and one (1) copy of the submittal will be returned to the Contractor.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 33 00 Page 11 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

1.15 INFORMATION ONLY SUBMITTALS

Normally submittals for information only are approved by the Contractor's approving authority. The Government will notify the Contractor if the submittal has received an "F" action code, and the submittal will not be returned. Approval of the Contracting Officer is not required on information only submittals. Submittal items found not to comply with contract requirements will be given an "X" action code, returned to the Contractor, and shall require resubmittal by the Contractor as a "G" submittal item. The Government reserves the right to require the Contractor to resubmit any item found not to comply with the contract. This does not relieve the Contractor from the obligation to furnish material conforming to the plans and specifications; will not prevent the Contracting Officer from requiring removal and replacement of nonconforming material incorporated in the work; and does not relieve the Contractor of the requirement to furnish samples for testing by the Government laboratory or for check testing by the Government in those instances where the technical specifications so prescribe.

1.16 REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)

Requests for Information are not submittal items. They are time sensitive Quality Control related correspondence. See Section 01 45 05 DREDGING/BEACH FILL PLACEMENT - CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL.

within 200 feet of the operation. The dredge operator shall gravity-release the clamshell bucket only at the water surface, and only after confirmation that there are no manatees within the safety distance identified in the standard construction conditions.

(4) Nighttime Manatee Monitoring (Clamshell Only) In the event clamshell dredging is used to accomplish work, the following measures will be adhered to during nighttime work:

(i) The dredge operator will gravity-release the clamshell bucket beginning at the water's surface, and only after confirmation that there are no manatees within the 50-foot safety distance.

(ii) At least two persons will be dedicated as protected marine animal observers. Dedicated observers will have appropriate qualifications and observation experience, demonstrated by a minimum of 100 hours of documented experience as an observer that has monitored marine animals during in-water dredging projects. The dedicated observers will be on site during all in-water construction activities and will advise personnel to cease operation upon sighting a manatee within 50 feet of any in-water construction.

(iii) In order to better observe manatees and marine turtles during nighttime clamshell operations, the contractor will use shielded lights to illuminate the water surface for 75 feet around the hoist line (cable attached to bucket). The light intensity will be a minimum of 54 lux (5 foot candles) at the water surface throughout this illuminated area including the edge. The contractor will have a handheld spotlight with a minimum of 10,000,000 candle power available to assist when appropriate in the detection of manatees and marine turtles immediately outside of this illuminated area. The Contractor will measure the size of the illuminated area and intensity of the specified illumination prior to commencement of the project. No night-time operations will commence or continue if one or more of these lighting parameters does not comply with the required specifications.

(iv) If the dedicated observers determine that detection of manatees during certain weather conditions (i.e., fog, rain, wind, etc.) is not possible, then dredging operations will cease until weather conditions improve and detection is again possible.

(v) All observers will maintain a daily log that details sightings, collisions, or injuries to protected marine animals, as well as project specific information such as work itinerary, weather, work shutdowns, observer shift changes, etc. In regard to manatee behavior, the observers will also log time of observation, estimated distance of manatees from the dredge, type of behavior (such as passing through, pausing in the vicinity of the project, interacting with the dredge, scows, tugs, etc., attraction to running or dripping water), and whether the dredge is operating at the time of observation. A final report will be written, summarizing all activities noted in the daily observer logs, the location and name of project, and the dates and times of work. The logs and the report will be submitted to Contracting

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 16 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

Officer within 15 days following project completion. The Contracting Officer will then submit the report to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ([email protected]) and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission ([email protected]) within 30 days of project completion.

(5) All takes of endangered or threatened (E&T) species shall be immediately reported to the Contracting Officer. Dredging operations shall cease each time an E&T species is taken until the Contracting Officer notifies the Contractor to resume dredging. Promptly following the take of an E&T species, the Government will perform a risk assessment which will include a review of all potential circumstances which contributed to the take, a review of the DQM data, and a physical inspection of the dredge and its operating procedures in accordance with the hopper dredge inspection checklist, project specifications and applicable biological opinions and permits. The Government, in coordination with the Contractor, will develop a risk management plan containing specific actions to minimize risk of additional take. The Government may terminate dredging if it is determined that take numbers are at or near the incidental take statement allowance or additional take jeopardizes other USACE approved regional dredging projects authorized by the South Atlantic/Gulf of Mexico Regional Biological Opinion and the risk of additional take by the project is determined to be high.

(6) If a sea turtle or sturgeon is taken by hopper dredge (dead or alive), a submittal of incident information shall be made into the Operations and Dredging Endangered Species System (ODESS).

d. Manatee Signs: Prior to commencement of construction, each vessel involved in construction activities shall display at the vessel control station or in a prominent location, visible to all employees operating the vessel, a temporary sign at least 8-1/2" x 11" reading, "CAUTION: MANATEE HABITAT/IDLE SPEED IS REQUIRED IN CONSTRUCTION AREA." In the absence of a vessel, a temporary 3' x 4' sign reading "CAUTION: MANATEE AREA" shall be posted adjacent to the issued construction permit. A second temporary sign measuring 8-1/2" x 11" reading "CAUTION: MANATEE HABITAT. EQUIPMENT MUST BE SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATELY IF A MANATEE COMES WITHIN 50 FEET OF OPERATION" shall be posted at the dredge operator control station and at a location prominently adjacent to the issued construction permit. The Contractor shall remove the signs upon completion of construction. Sample Manatee Caution Signs are on the first web site indicated in the paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below.

tagging, measuring, weighing and collecting tissue samples from turtles. Each turtle that is captured shall be identified to species and age class (juvenile, sub-adult, adult), digitally photographed, scanned for Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags, measured, tagged (Inconel flipper tag and PIT tag, if one not located by scan, and only if observer is qualified to tag using PIT tags), and released and the data recorded on the "Sea Turtle Tagging and Relocation Report" FOUND IN CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. External tags shall also be noted and data recorded into the observer's log. Turtles shall be released at locations at least 3 nautical miles (nmi) away from the project area, at time intervals designated by the Sea Turtle Trawling and Relocation Supervisor who is proficient in the viable handling and relocating of sea turtles.

Weight/Size Measurements and Tissue Collection. Turtles shall be measured, tagged, and weighed when safely possible, prior to release. Turtle measurements shall be recorded and shall include, at a minimum, weight when possible, straight-line length, straight-line width, body depth, and tail length. Turtles shall be tagged with NMFS No. 681 Inconel tags in each of the front flippers and PIT tags according to NMFS protocol (found at https://www.sefsc.noaa.gov/turtles/TM_579_SEFSC_STRTM.pdf and on the ODESS website under the Information tab). Aseptic conditions shall be maintained for tags and tag attachment. A tissue sample shall be collected from any trawl captured turtle and submitted under the process stated in the "Protocol for Collecting Tissue Samples from Turtles for Genetic Analysis" found in the CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. All genetic samples collected shall be submitted to NMFS within 30 days of collection, and verification of submittal to NMFS shall be provided to the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining permits related to trawling from the appropriate State agencies.

(2) Dead Turtles: Any turtle found dead in the nets during relocation trawling efforts shall be digitally photographed, measured, weighed (if possible), scanned for tags. The carcass should then be placed on ice and kept cold (but not frozen) as quickly as possible and the Contracting Officer shall be contacted immediately. The Contracting Officer will contact the Florida State Sea Turtle Salvage and Stranding network ([email protected]) to arrange for the carcass to be transferred for necropsy. The turtle shall be kept on ice (but not frozen) until the appropriate state agency can be contacted. If the state agency declines to recover the carcass for necropsy, the carcass shall be marked (spray paint works well), weighted down and disposed of in accordance with the direction of the Contracting Officer.

Weight/Size Measurements and Tissue Collection. Turtles shall be measured, and weighed. Measurements shall be recorded and shall include, at a minimum, weight when possible, straight-line length, straight-line width, body depth, and tail length. The Carcass shall also be scanned for flipper and Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags.

3.1.5.6 Hopper Dredge Equipment

Hopper dredge dragheads shall be equipped with rigid sea turtle deflectors

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 21 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

which are rigidly attached. Deflectors shall be solid with no openings in the face. Alternative designs will be considered provided sufficient information is included indicating a particular modification is effective in minimizing potential turtle takes. Government technical staff will coordinate with NMFS on the effectiveness of this alternate design. A recommendation from Government technical staff and NMFS will be provided to the Contracting Officer for final approval or disapproval of the alternate design. The Contractor shall not presume that a decision on an alternative design will be provided during the contracting period. The Contractor's unit price shall be based on the original, solid faced deflector design. No adjustment in unit price will be made for the approval or denial of an alternate deflector design. No dredging shall be performed by a hopper dredge without an installed turtle deflector device approved by the Contracting Officer. Sample Turtle Deflector Design Details are on the first web site indicated in paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below.

a. Deflector Design:

(1) The leading vee-shaped portion of the deflector shall have an included angle of less than 90 degrees. Internal reinforcement shall be installed in the deflector to prevent structural failure of the device. The leading edge of the deflector shall be designed to have a plowing effect of at least 6" depth when the drag head is being operated. Appropriate instrumentation or indicator shall be used and kept in proper calibration to insure the critical "approach angle". (Information Only Note: The design "approach angle" or the angle of lower drag head pipe relative to the average sediment plane is very important to the proper operation of a deflector. If the lower drag head pipe angle in actual dredging conditions varies tremendously from the design angle of approach used in the development of the deflector, the 6" plowing effect does not occur. Therefore, every effort should be made to insure this design "approach angle" is maintained with the lower drag pipe.)

(2) If adjustable depth deflectors are installed, they shall be rigidly attached to the drag head using either a hinged aft attachment point or an aft trunnion attachment point in association with an adjustable pin front attachment point or cable front attachment point with a stop set to obtain the 6" plowing effect. This arrangement allows fine-tuning the 6" plowing effect for varying depths. After the deflector is properly adjusted there shall be NO openings between the deflector and the drag head that are more than 4" by 4".

(3) Draghead Screening: If the Contractor has the draghead(s) screened, in no case shall the screening for the draghead production opening be smaller than 8 inches by 8 inches. Pumps employed shall be sufficient to operate efficiently with this screening as a minimum.

b. In Flow Basket Design:

(1) The Contractor shall install baskets or screening over the hopper inflow(s) with no greater than 4" x 4" openings. The method selected shall depend on the construction of the dredge used and shall be approved by the Contracting Officer prior to commencement of dredging. The screening shall provide 100 percent

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 22 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

screening of the hopper inflow(s). The screens and/or baskets shall remain in place throughout the performance of the work.

(2) The Contractor shall install and maintain floodlights suitable for illumination of the baskets or screening to allow the observer to safely monitor the hopper basket(s) during non-daylight hours or other periods of poor visibility. Safe access shall be provided to the inflow baskets or screens to allow the observer to inspect for turtles, turtle parts or damage.

c. Hopper Dredge Operation:

(1) The Contractor shall operate the hopper dredge to minimize the possibility of taking sea turtles or sturgeon and to comply with the requirements stated in the Incidental Take Statement provided by the NMFS in the appropriate Biological Opinion.

(2) The turtle deflector device and inflow screens shall be maintained in operational condition for the entire dredging operation.

(3) When initiating dredging, suction through the drag heads shall be allowed just long enough to prime the pumps, then the drag heads shall be placed firmly on the bottom. When lifting the drag heads from the bottom, suction through the drag heads shall be allowed just long enough to clear the lines, and then shall cease. Pumping water through the drag heads shall cease while maneuvering or during travel to/from the disposal area. (Information Only Note: Optimal suction pipe densities and velocities occur when the deflector is operated properly. If the required dredging section includes compacted fine sands or stiff clays, a properly configured arrangement of teeth may enhance dredge efficiency which reduces total dredging hours and "turtle takes." The operation of a drag head with teeth shall be monitored for each dredged section to insure that excessive material is not forced into the suction line. When excess high-density material enters the suction line, suction velocities drop to extremely low levels causing conditions for plugging of the suction pipe. Dredge operators should configure and operate their equipment to eliminate all low level suction velocities. Pipe plugging cannot be corrected by raising the drag head off the bottom. Arrangements of teeth and/or the reconfiguration of teeth should be made during the dredging process to optimize the suction velocities.)

(4) Raising the drag head off the bottom to increase suction velocities is not acceptable. The primary adjustment for providing additional mixing water to the suction line should be through water ports. To insure that suction velocities do not drop below appropriate levels, the Contractor's personnel shall monitor production meters throughout the job and adjust primarily the number and opening sizes of water ports. Water port openings on top of the drag head or on raised stand pipes above the drag head shall be screened before they are utilized on the dredging project. If a dredge section includes sandy shoals on one end of a tract line and mud sediments on the other end of the tract line, the Contractor shall adjust the equipment to eliminate drag head pick-ups to clear the suction line.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 23 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

(5) Near the completion of each payment section, the Contractor shall perform sufficient surveys to accurately depict those portions of the acceptance section requiring cleanup. The Contractor shall keep the drag head buried a minimum of 6 inches in the sediment at all times. Although the over depth prism is not the required dredging prism, the Contractor shall achieve the required prism by removing the material from the allowable over depth prism.

(6) During turning operations the pumps shall either be shut off or reduced in speed to the point where no suction velocity or vacuum exists.

(7) These operational procedures are intended to stress the importance of balancing the suction pipe densities and velocities in order to keep from taking sea turtles. The Contractor shall develop a written operational plan to minimize turtle takes and submit it as part of the Environmental Protection Plan.

(8) The Contractor shall comply with all requirements of this specification and the Contractor's accepted Environmental Protection Plan. The contents of this specification and the Contractor's Environmental Protection Plan shall be shared with all applicable crew members of the hopper dredge.

d. Hopper Dredge Lighting Requirements: From May 1st through October 31st, sea turtle nesting and emergence season, all lighting aboard hopper dredges and hopper dredge pumpout barges operating within three nautical miles of sea turtle nesting beaches shall be limited to the minimal lighting necessary to comply with U.S. Coast Guard and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. All non-essential lighting on the dredge and pumpout barge shall be minimized through reduction, shielding, lowering and appropriate placement of lights to reduce potential disorientation effects on female sea turtles approaching the nesting beaches and sea turtle hatchlings heading seaward.

3.1.5.7 Sea Turtle Trawling and Relocation (For Hopper Dredges Only)

a. Sea Turtle Trawling and Relocation: Sea turtle relocation via trawling shall be conducted following the take of two sea turtles, without regard to species, and continue until the end of dredging or as directed by the Contracting Officer. The results of each trawl shall be recorded on Sea Turtle Trawling Report available from the ODESS website (http://dqm.usace.army.mil/odess/#/download). An interim trawling report shall be submitted within 24 hours after the third turtle take by the dredge. A final report shall be prepared after the completion of all trawling efforts. Both reports shall be submitted in hard copy and electronic format to the Contracting Officer, and shall summarize the results of the trawling (with all forms and including total trawling times, number of trawls and number of captures). Any turtles captured during the trawling effort shall be measured and tagged in accordance with standard biological sampling procedures with sampling data recorded on Sea Turtle Tagging and Relocation Report available from the ODESS website (http://dqm.usace.army.mil/odess/#/download). Any captured sea turtles shall be relocated from the work area no less than 3 miles away from the location recorded on the Sea Turtle Tagging and

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 24 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

Relocation Report form.

b. Sea Turtle Trawling Procedures: An approved sea turtle trawling and relocation supervisor shall provide sea turtle trawl observers and nets to capture and relocate sea turtles and shall conduct any initiated sea turtle trawling. Turtles shall be captured with trawl nets to relocate them away from the project area to reduce the potential of sea turtle take. Methods and equipment shall be standardized including nets, trawling direction to tide, length of station, length of tow, and number of tows per station. Data on each tow shall be recorded using Sea Turtle Trawling Report available from the ODESS website (http://dqm.usace.army.mil/odess/#/download). The trawler shall be equipped with two 60-foot nets constructed from 8-inch mesh (stretch) fitted with mud rollers and flats as specified in Turtle Trawl Nets Specifications on the first web site indicated in paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. Paired net tows shall be made for 10 to 12 hours per day or night. Trawling shall be conducted with the tidal flow using repetitive 15-30 minute (total time) tows in the channel or borrow area. Tows shall be made as close to the operating dredge as the trawler captain determines is safe. Positions at the beginning and end of each tow shall be determined from GPS Positioning equipment. Tow speed shall be recorded at the approximate midpoint of each tow. Refer to EM 1110-1-1003, paragraph 5.3 and Table 5-1, for acceptable GPS criteria.

c. Water Quality and Physical Measurements: Water temperature measurements shall be taken at the water surface each day using a laboratory thermometer or a thermometer built into the trawling vessel. Weather conditions shall be recorded from visual observations and instruments on the trawler. Weather conditions, air temperature, wind velocity and direction, sea state-wave height, and precipitation shall be recorded on the Sea Turtle Trawling Report on the second web site indicated in paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS below. High and low tides shall be recorded.

d. Initiation of Trawling: Initiate trawling if two turtles are taken. The Contractor must initiate trawling and relocation activity in the dredging area within 8 hours of the occurrence of the take. Trawling shall continue until suspended by the Contracting Officer.

e. Approved Trawling Supervisor: Trawling shall be conducted under the supervision of a biologist approved by the NMFS. A letter of approval from NMFS shall be provided to the Contracting Officer prior to commencement of trawling.

f. Turtle Excluder Devices: Approval for trawling for sea turtles without Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) must be obtained from NMFS. Approval for capture and relocation of sea turtles must be obtained from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FF&WCC). Approvals must be submitted to the Contracting Officer prior to trawling.

g. Report Submission: Following completion of the project, a copy of the Contractor's log regarding sea turtles shall be forwarded to the Contracting Officer within 10 working days.

3.1.5.8 Protection of Migratory Bird Species (Alafia River Only)

The Contractor shall keep construction activities under surveillance,

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 25 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

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.

a. Monitoring of Construction Area: The Contractor shall conduct monitoring of the construction area as follows:

(1) All required monitoring shall be conducted by bird monitors with qualifications approved by the Contracting Officer. Transportation to and from the island, as well as any other necessary logistical support required for accomplishing the duties outlined in this section, shall be provided by the Contractor While birds are nesting on the island, the Contractor's personnel shall coordinate daily with the bird monitor(s) prior to accessing the island to avoid impacts to migratory birds that may be present on the exterior or interior portions of the island.

(2) The DMPF 3D site is subject to year round migratory bird nesting. As nesting may still be ongoing at the island in the fall months, the Contractor shall conduct a migratory bird survey prior to mobilizing equipment to the island. If any nests are found, the Contractor shall initiate surveys and continue them until all hatchlings have fledged or until otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. In the spring, nesting surveys shall be conducted while construction activities are occurring at least once daily from March 1 through September 15, or when nesting is completed, whichever is later. The Contractor may choose to conduct surveys more often to be sure they are aware of potential nesting activity, and are able to deter nesting prior to its occurrence. Early in the season, before chicks hatch, conduct at least one survey during the hotter parts of the day (9AM to 4PM). Nest attendance is likely to be more stable at this time of day, since birds protect their eggs from the hot sun. Later in the season when eggs hatch, conduct counts during the cooler parts of the day (before 9AM and after 7PM). Chicks may be more active and more visible during this time.

(3) Bird nesting surveys shall be conducted daily over the entire site, especially any project areas that may be impacted by construction, pre-construction or operational activities.

(4) Surveys for detecting new nesting activity will be completed on a daily basis prior to movement of equipment, operation of vehicles, or other activities that could potentially cause harm to the birds or their eggs or young.

(5) Surveys should be conducted by walking the length of the project site and visually inspecting, using binoculars or spotting scope, for the presence of migratory birds exhibiting nesting behavior. If an ATV or other vehicle is needed to cover large project areas, the vehicle shall be operated at a speed <4 mph, and the bird monitor will stop at no greater than 200 yard intervals to visually inspect for nesting activity.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 26 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

(6) The bird monitor(s) shall maintain a daily log detailing monitoring and nesting activity, including a map of the island showing their locations. The bird monitor shall use the forms attached to this section to complete the daily log. These logs shall be provided via e-mail to the Contracting Officer's designated USACE Technical Representative on a daily basis. Within 30 days after completion of construction, a summary of monitoring shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer and the Environmental Branch Chief (see table "Order of Contact of Corps Personnel" above), which details bird species identified, nesting and nesting success/failure including species, number of nests created, location, number of eggs, number of chicks generated during the project and reasons for nesting success or failure, if known. The summary shall contain an appendix with all daily log sheets.

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 Nancy Douglass, FWC Regional Biologist at (863) 648-3203 or email [email protected].

c. Nesting Within Construction Area:

(1) Should nesting begin within the construction area, a temporary, 300-foot buffer shall be created around the nests and marked with signs to avoid entry. 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

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 27 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

undesirable for bird nesting.

d. 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.

e. 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.

f. Meeting Attendance: The Contractor's bird monitor shall attend the biannual Migratory Bird Protection meetings, and weekly progress meetings with USACE that occur during nesting season.

3.1.5.9 Protection of Migratory Bird Species (Manatee Harbor Only)

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.

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 first 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.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 01 57 20 Page 28 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

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, 300-foot buffer shall be created around the nests and marked with signs to avoid entry. 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. Any stoppage of construction 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.

and attendant plant shall be at the Contractor's expense.

3.3 DISPOSAL OF EXCAVATED MATERIAL

3.3.1 General

Material excavated from Manatee Harbor shall be transported and deposited in the upland disposal area designated on the drawings. The average distance to which the material will have to be transported is approximately 1.7 nautical miles and the maximum distance will be approximately 2.0 nautical miles. Material excavated from Alafia River Channel shall be transported to and deposited in disposal area DMPF 3-D (Dredge Material Placement Facility). The average distance to which the material will have to be transported is approximately 1.7 nautical miles and the maximum distance will be approximately 3.2 nautical miles.

3.3.2 Upland Disposal Area

3.3.2.1 Material Placement

Dredged material shall be placed in the disposal area at a maximum distance from the weirs to insure sufficient settling time so that the effluent will meet the turbidity requirements specified in Section 01 57 25 TURBIDITY AND DISPOSAL MONITORING. The dredged material shall be placed in the disposal area in such a manner as to not scour out or damage the crown and side slopes of the existing dikes. Damage to dikes or scouring of the crown and side slopes shall be repaired by the Contractor to their original pre-award condition at no additional cost to the Government. The Contractor shall not cut into or modify the upland disposal site dike section for any reason. In the event that the contractor excavates, cuts into, or modifies the upland disposal site dike, the dredging operations shall be immediately suspended and require prompt repair of the dike as a prerequisite to the resumption of dredging.

3.3.2.2 Maximum Height of Dredged Materials

Dredged Material and/or water in the Manatee Harbor disposal area shall not be placed higher than 2 feet below the lowest point on the dike crest. The Contractor shall use a Florida Licensed Professional Surveyor and Mapper to survey the dike crest in the Manatee Harbor disposal area to determine the location of the lowest point on the dike crest. Dredged materials and/or water in disposal area DMPF 3-D shall not be placed higher than 2.5 feet below the lowest point of the dike crest. The Contractor shall constantly monitor the water height while pumping to insure that this clearance is maintained. Materials deposited in the disposal area above the maximum height or outside the disposal area will result in suspension of dredging operations and require the removal of such materials as a prerequisite to the resumption of dredging.

Drainage of exterior areas adjacent to the diked disposal area shall not be blocked or impaired in any manner by the Contractor's operations. The Contractor shall excavate and maintain ditches necessary to prevent blocking or impairing drainage. The ditches shall be of adequate number and size to eliminate all blockage or impairment of drainage adjacent to the diked disposal area.

3.3.2.3 Disposal Area Drainage

The Contractor shall, if necessary, excavate and maintain ditches to drain

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 23 Page 10 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

all low areas in the dredged material and disposal area to the weirs. The ditches shall be of adequate number and size to eliminate all ponding of water in the dredged material above the elevation of the weir invert.

3.3.2.4 Existing Weirs

a. The existing weirs shall be operated by the Contractor to control discharge of disposal area effluent during disposal and decanting operations. Riser boards for the weirs are stored on site in a secure location as shown on the drawings. Access to the riser boards will be provided by the Contracting Officer's Representative.

b. The Contractor shall install riser boards in the weirs to a crest elevation which produces an effluent quality meeting the turbidity requirements specified in Section 01 57 25 TURBIDITY AND DISPOSAL MONITORING. The Contractor shall wedge the riser boards in place and seal the end and between-board joints as needed to prevent soil slurry and turbid water from passing through the weirs.

c. Upon completion of disposal operations, all weirs shall be left in place and the Contractor shall adjust the elevations of the crests to provide for complete drainage without ponding of the disposal area for a minimum of 15 days. The elevation adjustment to the weirs shall be the same on all weirs in the disposal area. The weir's riser boards shall be removed one row at a time. The next row of boards shall not be removed until the water level is drawn down to not more than one inch above the weirs' crest. This process shall be continued until the interface with the suspended dredged material is reached. After the interface is reached, the Contractor shall continue to inspect the disposal area until completion of his/her work under this contract, and he/she shall remove another row of boards each time the material has consolidated sufficiently so that it will not flow from the disposal area. The effluent from this final drainage for eliminating ponding shall meet the applicable requirement specified in Section 01 57 20 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION and/or Section 01 57 25 TURBIDITY AND DISPOSAL MONITORING. The Contractor shall provide at least hourly inspection of the weirs during final drainage of the areas and raise the weir boards if necessary to stop the effluent if it does not meet the applicable requirements. This inspection shall be at closer intervals, if necessary, during periods of rain and when the water level is approaching the interface.

3.3.2.5 Existing Outfall Pipes

The Contractor shall ensure that all weirs and outfall pipes are operational for this dredging event. The Contractor shall inspect, clean out and repair outfall pipes for safe operation of the weirs. The contractor shall inspect outfall shoreline stabilization for signs of scour and failure prior to starting dredging operations and upon completion. Repairs shall be made to return the weir systems to their intended function if necessary. The contractor shall inspect these areas during the pre-bid, disposal area site visit, estimate materials and equipment required to complete the work, and include this cost in the lump sum price for the "Mobilization and Demobilization" line item in the Line Items and Pricing Schedule (Section 00010A).

3.3.3 Barges

Water and dredged materials shall not be permitted to overflow or spill

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 23 Page 11 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

out of barges or dump scows during transport to the disposal site(s). Failure to repair leaks or change the method of operation which is resulting in overflow or spillage will result in suspension of dredging operations and require prompt repair or change of operation to prevent overflow or spillage as a prerequisite to the resumption of dredging.

3.3.4 Placing of Dredged Material

During placement of dredged material in the disposal area, the Contractor will be required to provide constant radio contact between the dredge and the disposal area. This will enable the Contractor's personnel at the disposal area to immediately notify the dredge in the event of dike or pipeline failure. In the event of dike or pipeline failure, the dredging operations shall be immediately suspended and require prompt repair of the dike or pipeline as a prerequisite to the resumption of dredging.

3.3.5 Dredge Pipelines

3.3.5.1 Dredge Discharge Pipeline

The Contractor shall plainly mark the pipeline access routes with conspicuous stakes, targets and/or buoys to be maintained throughout the contract operations. A tight dredge discharge pipeline shall be maintained to prevent spilling of dredged material or dredge water outside of the disposal area. The Contractor shall provide and maintain radio communication between the dredge and the disposal area and the dredge and the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall coordinate with the COR in the field on the pipeline route over and into DMPF-3D. The pipeline shall be inspected at least twice daily for leaks. Failure to immediately repair leaks in the discharge pipeline will result in suspension of dredging operations and require prompt repair of pipeline as a prerequisite to the resumption of dredging. Any damage to private or public property resulting from the Contractor's operations shall be repaired by the Contractor at his expense.

3.3.5.2 Submerged Pipeline

In the event the Contractor elects to submerge his pipeline, the pipeline shall rest on the bottom, and the top of the submerged pipeline and any anchor securing the submerged pipeline shall be no higher than the required project depth for the channel in which the submerged pipeline is placed. Should the Contractor elect to use a pipeline material which is buoyant or semi-buoyant, such as PVC pipe or similar low density materials, the Contractor shall securely anchor the pipeline to prevent the pipeline from lifting off the bottom under any conditions. The Contractor shall make daily inspections of the submerged pipeline to ensure buoyancy has not loosened the anchors. The Contractor shall remove all anchors when the submerged pipeline is removed. The location of the entire length of submerged pipeline shall be marked with signs, buoys, lights, and flags conforming to U.S. Coast Guard regulations.

3.3.5.3 Floating Pipeline

Should the Contractor's pipeline not rest on the bottom, it will be considered a floating pipeline and shall be visible on the surface and clearly marked. In no case will the Contractor's pipeline be allowed to fluctuate between the surface and the bottom, or lie partly submerged. Lights shall be installed on the floating pipeline as required in paragraph SIGNAL LIGHTS above. The lights shall be supported either by

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 23 Page 12 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

buoys or by temporary piling, provided by the Contractor and approved by the Contracting Officer. Where the pipeline does not cross a navigable channel, the flashing yellow all-around lights shall be spaced not over 200 feet apart, unless closer spacing is required by U.S. Coast Guard personnel, in which case the requirements of the U.S. Coast Guard shall govern, at no additional cost to the Government.

3.3.6 Booster Pumps

Any booster pumps installed by the Contractor shall be located at least 300 feet from any residential-type building or house. Booster pumps, their prime movers, and any auxiliary equipment shall be fitted or equipped with mufflers, noise control enclosures, or other engineering noise control methods, measures, and features such that steady noise emanating from this equipment does not exceed 85 decibels on the A scale at slow response, and impulsive noise does not exceed 140 decibels. Such items shall be maintained throughout the course of the work.

3.3.7 Misplaced Materials

Materials deposited above the maximum indicated elevation or outside of the disposal area shown will require the removal of such materials at the Contractor's expense.

3.4 REQUIRED DEPTH, ALLOWABLE OVERDEPTH, AND SIDE SLOPES

3.4.1 Required Depth

The material actually removed from the designated areas to be dredged, to a depth of not more than the required depth shown on the drawings, will be estimated and paid for in accordance with the provisions contained in the subparagraphs "Measurement" and "Payment" of Section 01 22 00 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT.

3.4.2 Allowable Overdepth

To cover the inaccuracies of the dredging process, material actually removed from the designated areas to be dredged, to a depth below the required depth of not more than the allowable overdepth shown on the drawings, will be measured and paid for in accordance with the provisions contained in the subparagraphs "Measurement" and "Payment" of Section 01 22 00 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT.

3.4.3 Side Slopes

Although dredging of side slope material may be necessary to provide the required project channel dimensions (depth and width), the side slopes shown on the drawings are provided for payment purposes only. Side slopes may be formed by box cutting, step cutting, or dredging along the side slope. Material actually removed, within the limits approved by the Contracting Officer, to provide for final side slopes not flatter than that shown on the contract drawings, but not in excess of the amount originally lying above this limiting side slope, will be measured and paid for in accordance with the provisions contained in subparagraphs "Measurement" and "Payment" of Section 01 22 00 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT. Such amount will be estimated and paid for whether dredged in original position or by box cut dredging whereby a space is dredged below the allowable side slope plane on the bottom of the slope for upslope material capable of falling into the cut. End slopes and transition slopes will

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 23 Page 13 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

not be estimated or paid for under this contract. In such cases, a 0 horizontal on 1 vertical will be used with no upslope allowance provision applied outside the required prism.

3.4.4 Excessive Dredging

It is recognized that the limits of dredging need to extend beyond the pay prism in order to remove material from within the pay prism. Therefore, the limits of active dredging may exceed the limits of the pay prism in vertical dimension as well as horizontal dimension to the extent necessary to remove material from the pay prism. Indirect impacts (sideslope sloughing, etc) may extend even beyond the limits of active dredging. Nevertheless, material taken from beyond the limits of the pay prism as described in subparagraphs "Allowable Overdepth" and "Side Slopes" above will be deducted from the total amount dredged as excessive overdepth dredging, or excessive sideslope dredging, for which payment will not be made. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent payment for the removal of shoals performed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the paragraphs FINAL EXAMINATION AND ACCEPTANCE or SHOALING of this Section.

3.4.5 Areas to be Dredged

Based on information currently available to the Government, areas known to require dredging are depicted on the drawings as shaded areas. The actual areas to be dredged may vary from the shaded areas shown in the drawings. In order to provide the required project dimensions within and throughout the project limits shown on the drawings, the Contractor shall remove material located within the project limits as directed by the Contracting Officer, regardless of whether the material is located in a shaded area or not. Payment for all dredged material dredged from a shaded area will be made at the applicable contract unit price. Payment for all material dredged from a non-shaded area may be made at the applicable contract unit price; however, the Contractor may request an adjustment to the contract unit price in accordance with DFAR Clause 252.243-7002 REQUESTS FOR EQUITABLE ADJUSTMENT and/or FAR Clause 52.243-4 CHANGES of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1.

3.4.6 Acceptance Sections

For purposes of payment, the work to be done will be divided into acceptance sections. Prior to any dredging, the Contractor shall prepare and provide a proposed acceptance sections plan for approval by the Contracting Officer. Generally, the work should be divided into areas that equate to approximately 30 days of dredging or that constitute separable or definable features of work.

3.5 SURVEYS

1.4 NATIONAL DREDGING QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM CERTIFICATION

The Contractor is required to have a current certification from the DQM for the scow instrumentation system to be used under this contract. Criteria for certification shall be based on the most recent specification posted on the DQM website (http://dqm.usace.army.mil/Specifications/Index.aspx), Compliance with these criteria shall be verified by on-site quality assurance (QA) checks conducted by DQM Support Center Data Acquisition and Analysis Team, and by periodic review of the transmitted data. If a system is installed specifically for this contract, the QA checks should take place prior to any material being loaded into the scow to insure that it is capable of transmitting quality data to the DQM database or with prior approval of local district, during the first load for each scow, and subsequent loads as is necessary to verify compliance. A DQM Certification is valid for one year from the date of certification and is contingent upon the system's ability to meet the performance requirements as outlined in sections 3.3 and 3.5. If issues with data quality are not corrected within 48 hours, the system certification shall be revoked and additional QA checks by the Data Acquisition Team may be necessary.

Annual DQM Certification shall be based on:

A series of QA checks as described in section 3.4 "Compliance Quality Assurance Checks'

Verification of data acquisition and transfer (Section 3.3)

Review of the Dredge Plant Instrumentation Plan (DPIP) as described in Section 1.5

The dredging contractor shall have personnel who are familiar with the system instrumentation and who have the ability to recalibrate the sensors on site during the QA process. The dredging contractor shall coordinate pickup times and locations and provide transportation to and from any platform with a DQM system to team personnel in a timely manner. The dredging contractor shall also have on site for the QA checks a tug capable of towing the scow. As a general rule, Data Acquisition and Analysis Team personnel will come with PPE consisting of hardhats, steel toe boots, and life jackets. If additional safety equipment is needed, such as eye protection, safety harnesses, work gloves or personal location beacons, these items shall be provided to the team while on site. The Contractor shall submit a test data package to the DQM Database from the system on each scow and have it accepted by the DQM Support Center prior to scow compliance checks. The Contractor shall also submit data collected during the QA Checks from the scow monitoring system to the DQM database and the Data Acquisition Team personnel while on site. It is the dredging contractor's obligation to inform the QA team if the location designated for the QA checks has any site specific safety concerns prior to their arrival on site.

The owner or operator of the scow shall contact DQM at [email protected] on an annual basis, or at least three weeks prior to the proposed beginning of dredging, to schedule QA checks. This notification is meant to make the Data Acquisition Team aware of a target date and the contract on which the plant will be used. At least one week prior to the target date, the dredging contractor shall contact the Data Acquisition team and verbally coordinate a specific date and location. The contractor shall then follow-up this conversation with a written e-mail

confirmation. The owner/operator shall coordinate the QA checks with all local authorities, including but not limited to, the local USACE contracting officer.

Re-certification is required for any yard work which produces modification to displacement (i.e. change in scow lines, repositioning or repainting hull marks), modification to bin volume (change in bin dimensions or addition or subtraction of structure) or changes in sensor type or location; these changes shall be reported in the sensor log section of the DPIP A system does not have to be transmitting data between jobs, however in order to retain certification during this period, the system sensors or hardware should not be disconnected or removed from the scow. If the system is powered down, calibration coefficients shall be retained.

1.5 DREDGE PLANT INSTRUMENTATION PLAN (DPIP)

The Contractor shall have a digital copy of the DPIP on file with the National DQM Support Center. The Contractor shall also maintain a copy of the DPIP on a working dredge on site which is easily accessible to government personnel at all times. This document shall describe the sensors used, configuration of the system, how sensor data will be collected, how quality control on the data will be performed, and how sensors/data reporting equipment will be calibrated and repaired if they fail. A description of computed scow specific data and how the sensor data will be transmitted to the DQM Database shall also be included. The Contractor shall submit to the DQM Support Center any addendum or modifications made to the plan, subsequent to its original submission, prior to start of work.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 SPECIFICATIONS FOR REPORTED DATA

The Contractor shall provide, operate and maintain all hardware and software to meet these specifications. The Contractor shall be responsible for replacement, repair and calibration of sensors and other necessary data acquisition equipment needed to supply the required data.

Repairs shall be completed within 48 hours of any sensor failure. Upon

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 7 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

completion of a repair, replacement, installation, modification or calibration the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Office's Representative (COR). The COR may request re-calibration of sensors or other hardware components at any time during the contract as deemed necessary.

The Contractor shall keep a log of sensor repair, replacement, installation, modification and calibration in the on-site copy of the DPIP. The log shall contain a three-year history of sensor maintenance to include: the time of sensor failures (and subsequent repairs), the time and results of sensor calibrations, the time of sensor replacements, and the time that backup sensor systems are initiated to provide required data. It shall also contain the name of the person responsible for the sensor work.

Sensors installed shall be capable of collecting parameters within specified accuracies and resolutions indicated in the following subsections and transmit them to the DQM Database.

With the exception of position and any value calculated, reported sensor values should represent a weighted average with the highest and lowest values not included in the calculated average for the given interval. The averaging routine used should be consistent across all event triggers. This information should be documented in the DPIP sections that say "Calculations done external to the instrumentation".

These data reporting requirements cover the collection of electronic data on a scow through the entire dredging cycle. Disposal events can consist of both open water disposal and offloading. Open water disposal is the placement of material via bottom doors or split hull. Offloading is the placement of material via either hydraulic or mechanical means.

3.1.1 Scow Name

Each scow shall be assigned a unique name that will remain constant from one dredging operation to the next.

3.1.2 Contract Number

The USACE Assigned contract number for the project will be reported.

3.1.3 Trip Number

A DQM trip number shall document the end of a disposal event for a given scow.

3.1.3.1 Open Water Disposal

The trip number will be incremented at the completion of each disposal/removal of material from the scow. Each scow shall maintain a separate trip numbering sequence - i.e. each scow will start with a trip number of 1, that will be incremented by 1 each time that scow completes a disposal. The trip number must be calculated and repeatable based on a given logic; it may not necessarily correspond to the trip number logged aboard the dredge or tug. Efforts shall be made to include logic that avoids false trip number increments, while also not allowing the routine to miss any disposal events.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 8 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

3.1.3.2 Offloading

The trip number will be incremented at the completion of each disposal/removal of material from the scow. Each scow shall maintain a separate trip numbering sequence - i.e. each scow will start with a trip number of 1, that will be incremented by 1 each time that scow completes a disposal. The trip number must be calculated and repeatable based on a given logic; it may not necessarily correspond to the trip number logged aboard the dredge or tug. Efforts shall be made to include logic that avoids false trip number increments, while also not allowing the routine to miss any disposal events.

3.1.3.3 Project Trip Number

A project trip number is not unique to a particular dredge plant, but is unique to a contract. Like a scow trip number the project trip number shall document the end of a disposal event. Project trip numbering will begin at number 1 at the start of the contract, and will be incremented by 1 at the completion of each disposal event or emptying of the dredge material. The trip number must be calculated and repeatable based on a given logic. Efforts shall be made to include logic that avoids false trip number increments, while also not allowing the routine to miss any disposal events.

3.1.4 Horizontal Positioning

Geographic coordinates of the vessel as indicated by the location of the GPS antenna. All locations shall be obtained using a Positioning System operating with a minimum accuracy level of 1 to 3 meters horizontal Circular Error Probable (CEP). Positions shall be reported as Latitude/Longitude WGS 84 in decimal degrees. West Longitude and South Latitude values are reported as negative.

3.1.5 Date and Time

The date and time shall be reported to the nearest second and referenced to UTC time based on a 24 hour format; yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.

3.1.6 Hull Status

Hull status is meant to reflect a condition when material could be removed or released from the scow. For this contract, hull status shall register closed prior to leaving the disposal area.

3.1.6.1 Open Water Disposal

An open split hull or open bottom door shall be indicated by reporting an "OPEN" value. A closed split hull or closed bottom door of a scow shall be indicated by reporting an "CLOSED" value. Open status shall be indicated as the bin starts to open and a closed status shall be indicated only once the bin is fully closed. For pocket scows, the Open/Closed status shall correspond to the compartment which is first to open and last to close.

3.1.6.2 Offloading

For non-dumping scows, the "OPEN" value shall indicate that the bin is in the process of being unloaded, either by pumping or mechanical means.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 9 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

3.1.7 Course

Scow course-over-ground (COG)shall be provided using industry standard equipment. The Contractor shall provide scow course over ground (to the nearest whole degree) with values from 000 (true north) to 359 degrees referenced to a clockwise positive direction convention.

3.1.8 Speed

Scow speed-over-ground shall be provided in knots using industry standard equipment with a minimum accuracy of 1.0 knots and resolution to the nearest 0.1 knot.

3.1.9 Heading

Scow heading shall be provided using industry standard equipment. The scow heading shall be accurate to within 5 degrees and reported to the nearest whole degree, with values from 000 (true north) to 359 degrees referenced to a clockwise positive direction convention.

3.1.10 Draft

All reported draft measurements shall be in feet, tenths and hundredths with an accuracy of + 0.1 foot relative to observed physical draft readings. The measurements shall be reported at a resolution of two decimal places (hundredths of a foot). Reported forward draft value shall be equal to the sum of the visual forward port and starboard draft mark readings divided by 2. Reported aft draft value shall be equal to the sum of the visual aft port and starboard draft mark readings divided by 2.Forward draft, aft draft and average draft will be reported. Sensors shall be placed at an optimum location on the scow to be reflective of observed physical draft mark readings at any trim or list. The sensor value reported shall be an average of at least 10 samples per event, remove at least one maximum value and one minimum value, and average the minimum 8 remaining values. When average draft is calculated for the purpose of determining displacement, significant digits for average draft shall be maintained such that if forward draft was 0.15 and aft draft was 0.1 then the average draft would be 0.125.

3.1.11 Displacement

Scow displacement shall be reported in long tons, based on the most accurate method available for the scow. The minimum standard of accuracy for displacement is interpolation from the displacement table, based on the average draft. For this contract the density of water used to calculate displacement shall be 64.0 pounds per cubic foot or its metric equivalent of 1025 kilograms per cubic meter and shall be used for an additional interpolation between the fresh and salt water tables.

3.1.12 Bin Ullage Sounding

All reported ullage soundings shall be in feet, tenths and hundredths with an accuracy of + 0.1 foot with respect to the combing, and be representative of the forward and aft extents of the hopper as close to centerline as is possible. The measurements shall be reported at a resolution of two decimal places (hundredths of a foot). If sensors must be offset from centerline of the bin they should be offset to opposite sides of the vessel. Forward ullage, aft ullage and average ullage soundings will be reported. The sensor value reported shall be an average

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 10 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

of at least 10 samples per event, remove at least one maximum value and one minimum value, and average the minimum 8 remaining values. When average ullage is calculated for the purpose of determining hopper volume, significant digits for average ullage shall be maintained such that if forward ullage was 0.15 and aft ullage was 0.1 then the average ullage would be 0.125. Special arrangements for pocket scows may be made in consultation with the DQM support center.

3.1.13 Bin Volume

Scow bin volume shall be reported in cubic yards, based on the most accurate method available for the scow. The minimum standard of accuracy for bin volume is interpolation from the bin volume table, based on the average ullage soundings.

3.2 NATIONAL DREDGING QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Contractors DQM system shall be capable of collecting, displaying, and transmitting information to the DQM Database. The parameters which shall be reported to the DQM Database include: trip number, date and time, hull status, scow course, scow speed, scow heading, draft, displacement, ullage, and bin volume. An easily accessible, permanent visual display on the scow shall show in real time the parameters collected by the system in the same units as data submitted to the DQM database. In the event a reported parameter is calculated based on multiple sensors, the sensor values as used in the equation shall be able to be viewed in addition to the required parameter. If a hardware problem occurs, or if a part of the system is physically damaged, then the Contractor shall be responsible for repairing it within 48 hours of determination of the condition.

3.2.1 Telemetry

The Contractor may select any commercial satellite, cellular phone, or other data communications systems available, as long as it is capable of transmitting real time data, as well as enough additional band width to clear historically queued data when a connection is re-obtained. The telemetry system shall be always available and have connectivity in contract area at least 12 out of 24 hours -OR- at least 20 out of 24 hours -OR- at least 1 out of every 2 hours -OR - at least once every 24 hours, capable of transmitting all queued data. Telemetry systems must be capable of meeting these minimum reporting requirements in all operating conditions. The data transition process from the scow to the DQM database must be automated. The data may be sent from the scow directly to the DQM database or to a shore based computer. Data transmitted to the DQM Database should be raw data; any processing of the data conducted shore side shall be done using repeatable automated software or programming routine. A description of this process shall be included in the DPIP.

3.2.2 Data Reporting Frequency

Disposal activities shall be logged with high temporal and spatial resolution. Data shall be logged as a series of events. Each set of measurements (i.e. time, position, etc…) will be considered an event. All required information in section 3.1 that are not an averaged variable (i.e. draft and ullage) shall be collected within one second of reported time. Data shall be measured with sufficient frequency by the scow system to resolve the events to the accuracy specified in the following table. Any averaged variable must be collected and computed within this sampling interval. Event Types "Sailing", "Loading/Stationary" and "Offloading" and

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 11 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

"Open Water Disposal" are triggered by a time criteria; the criteria should be consistent across the "Sailing" and "Open Water Disposal" event types and should not change for the data collected on a given scow. This criterion should be documented by the contractor in the DPIP.

Event Event Event Time Position Type Event Trigger Descriptions Resolution Resolution Loading/ No change in position with hull status closed 1 minute NA Stationary An elapsed time of 1 hour since the last event No change in position with hull status open ------NONCLOSURE------In the event a scow has completed an open water disposal and transited back to a holding station without closing the hull, the sampling shall be changed to once per hour

Sailing Change in position with hull status closed 1 second +/-10 ft Time from the last sample equals 1 minutes

Open Hull status open 1 second +/-10 ft Water A position must be recorded within 1 second of Disposal the hull status going from closed to open and again within 1 second of the hull status going from open to closed The position shall be reported at any equal interval from 6 to 12 seconds. This interval shall always remain consistent for the dredge plant.

Offloading Offloading material, hull status reported as 1 second +/-10 ft open A position must be recorded within 1 minute arrival at the offload location and within one second of the material starting to be removed from scow. Time from the last sample equals 1 minute. ------STANDBY OFFLOADING----- In the event a scow is not being actively 1 minute offloaded at the offload location for a time equal to one hour, sampling interval shall be equal to once an hour.

Example: Scow is stationary for 1 hour 15 minutes, and then the scow sails to the disposal area. You should have a "Loading/Stationary" event at time zero, time 1 hour, and time 1 hour 15 minutes. Then, for Sailing, within 1 second of an elapsed time of 1 minute from the 1 hour 15 minutes event, another event occurs.

3.2.3 Data Transmission to Web Service

A Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) web service shall be used to report sensor data to the DQM Database. Data shall be transmitted as it is collected in real time and pushed to the DQM web service. If the web service is not available or returns an Error message, the data shall be stored in a queue and transmitted upon re-establishment of the connection,

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 12 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

starting with the oldest data in the queue and continuing until real-time transmission is restored. Delays in pushing real time data to the DQM database should not exceed four hours. Exceptions to these requirements may be granted by the DQM center on a case by case basis with consideration for considering contract specific requirements, or site specific conditions, and extreme weather events.

The web service provides synchronous or asynchronous calls to the Enqueue method, whose fields are:

Key GUID string identifying the contractor Subject Plant identification string Data Scow XML data element with one point's sensor readings

Please contact [email protected] to obtain the web service URL and the appropriate Key credentials.

Upon transmitting the Key (e.g. `12345678-90AB-CDEF-1234-567890ABCDEF`), Subject (e.g. `2099`), and Data (example in next section), the service will respond with one of the following responses.

If the Key element identifying the contractor was invalid, the service will respond with: Error: Invalid/Expired GUID

If the Plant or Data elements were incorrect (e.g. if the XML string is not well-formed SCOW_DREDGING_DATA), the service will respond with: Error: Invalid Format

If there is an error within the service itself, the service will respond with: Error: Service Unavailable

If all fields were correct, the service will respond with a SHA 256 hexadecimal checksum of the Data field, e.g.: 67DE1F8FA6989415BE817D1E3ABF6A3B761624F09AE02F5DF9FC63D15196F322

If all fields were correct, but the Key for this contractor will soon expire, the service will respond with the new key, as well as a SHA 256 hexadecimal checksum of the Data field. The new Key and the checksum will be separated by a pipe `|` character for simpler parsing, e.g.: Warning: Update GUID to FEDCBA09-8765-4321-FEDC-BA0987654321|67DE1F8FA6989415BE817D1E3ABF6A3B761624 F09AE02F5DF9FC63D15196F322

Upon receipt of the Update GUID warning above, the contractor should update the Key transmitted in further calls to the service, as the current Key will expire within a short timeframe. The new Key will be available for use immediately. After the contractor uses the new Key for the first time, the service will immediately disable the old Key.

Communication with the DQM web service can be conducted either synchronously or asynchronously. For synchronous communication the system provider's web service should wait for the results before sending the next line of XML data.

3.2.4 XML-Formatted Sensor Data String

Each scow event shall be passed as a string on one continuous line of

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 13 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

data. The example below is broken up by variable for ease of reading:

It should be noted that date values shall be formatted as follows: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, as shown above. If for any reason a field has no value, send the enclosing XML tags with nothing between them, e.g. . The web service cannot handle a "null" value or any other indicators of no value collected.Data

3.2.5 Contractor Data Backup

The Contractor shall maintain an archive of all data sent to the DQM database during the dredging contract. The COR may require, at no increase in the contract price, that the Contractor provide a copy of these data covering specified time periods. The data shall be provided in the HTML format which would have been transmitted to the DQM database. Data submission shall be via storage medium acceptable to the COR.

At the end of the dredging contact, the Contractor shall contact the National DQM Support Center prior to discarding the data to ensure it has been appropriately archived. The Contractor shall record in a separate section at the end of the scow's on-site copy of the DPIP the following information:

a. Person who made the call b The date of the call c. The DQM representative who gave permission to discard

The same day of the phone call and prior to discarding the data, the Contractor shall submit a "Data Appropriately Archived e-mail" to the local districts Contracting Officer's Representative with the above information, and Cc: the DQM Support Center representative providing permission.

3.3 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor's DQM system shall be fully operational at the start of dredging operations and fully certified prior to moving dredge material on the contract (see section 1.4, National Dredging Quality Management Program Certification). To meet contract requirements for operability, in addition to certification, the Contractor's system shall provide a minimum an accurate data and be compliant with DPIP requirements (Section 1.5). Quality data strings are considered to be those providing accurate values for all parameters reported when operating according to the specification. Repairs necessary to restore data return compliance shall be made within 48 hours. If the Contractor fails to report required data within the specified time window for scow measurements (see Section 3.2.2 "Data Measurement Frequency" and 3.2.3 "Data Reporting"), or if the system has not received DQM certification prior to dredging; the system will be declared not in compliance, and the Contractor will be assessed liquidated damages equivalent to the additional oversight hours that would be required for Corps personnel to be on site from the first full day after the system is deemed not operational through to the time when the system is returned to fully operational status.

3.4 COMPLIANCE QUALITY ASSURANCE CHECKS

Quality assurance checks are required prior to the commencement of dredging, and at the discretion of a COR periodically throughout the duration of the contract. As part of the testing requirements, the dredging contractor shall provide the above personnel an easily accessible visual display of measurements from the scow monitoring system in the same units that are submitted to the DQM database. These measurements shall be provided in real-time on the scow or near real-time on location. The Dredging contractor shall also submit data collected during the QA checks from the scow monitoring system to the DQM database at completion of the checks. Detailed instructions for performing these checks and a spreadsheet for recording the results are available at http://dqm.usace.army.mil/Certifications/Index.aspx. Incoming data shall be periodically reviewed to assure compliance with performance requirements outlined in section 3.3.

For annual instrumentation checks and compliance monitoring, the DQM Data Acquisition Team personnel attempt to be as flexible as possible in performing their checks so as not to delay work; however, in order to expedite matters as much as possible, it is necessary that they receive the support and cooperation of the local district and dredging contractor. The dredging contractor shall coordinate pickup times and locations and provide transportation to and from any platform with a DQM certified system in a timely manner. Calibrations to the sensors should already be performed before DQM personnel arrive on site.

3.4.1 Position Check

During the QA checks, both the static position of the scow and a dynamic tracking of movement though each of the event triggers (section 3.2.2) will be monitored by an independent GPS unit. The inspector GPS data shall be compared to the data that is collected by the DQM certified system for

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 15 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

the same period. The data should be provided to the Data Acquisition Team by the system provider while onsite. The Data Acquisition Team will confirm position of the scow, verify that data collection intervals change as each of the scow event triggers change, and will check all data reporting requirements. A contractor furnished tug will be required to transport the scow during this check. Throughout the contract, the COR will periodically verify reported positions by independently measuring with other equipment to verify locations.

3.4.2 Hull Status Check

The Contracting Officer's Representative will document the angle at which the hull status sensor registers "OPEN" and "CLOSED".

3.4.3 Draft & Displacement Check

The COR shall periodically verify the accuracy of the fore and aft system reported draft values by comparing the vessel hull draft marks to the corresponding sensor readings indicated on the DQM screen. The vessel's hull draft reading shall be viewed from a contractor supplied auxiliary vessel circling the dredge. The COR shall review the difference between averaged drafts recorded by the instruments and those estimated from the draft marks to insure that the system is operating within the acceptable accuracy of approximately + 0.1 ft. in calm seas conditions. Reported draft values will be verified light, loaded, and at other intervals at the discretion of the COR. If sensors responsible for collecting draft values are not located on centerline, verification may be required under different trim and list conditions. If values are outside the acceptable range, the Contractor shall re-calibrate or repair system components as necessary. This check may be performed separately or as a part of the Water Load Test. For each system provided 5fore and aft draft, an average draft value will be calculated during the draft check, and the corresponding displacement will be verified longhand using the supplied draft/displacement tables.

3.4.4 Bin Ullage Sounding & Volume Check

The COR shall periodically check the reported bin ullage sounding using a tape measure or other distance measuring device. The Contractor shall furnish a clearly readable weighted tape, marked in tenths of a foot, capable of measuring throughout the full range of bin depth. The weight for this tape shall be a 6-inch diameter disk weighing between 2 and 3 pounds. The COR shall review the bin ullage sounding data to insure that the system is operating within acceptable accuracy (0.1 feet). Reported ullage soundings will be verified light, loaded, and at other intervals at the COR's discretion. Measurements can be taken from multiple locations along the combing or from sensor location at the COR's discretion. If values are outside the acceptable range, the Contractor shall re-calibrate or repair system components as necessary. This check may be performed separately or as a part of the Water Load Test. For each system provided fore and aft ullage sounding value, an average ullage sounding will be calculated during during the ullage check, and the corresponding bin volume will be verified longhand using the supplied bin volume tables.

3.5 CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL

Dredging contractor shall designate a quality control systems manager (QCSM), who shall develop and maintain daily procedures to ensure the contractor's quality control (CQC) of the DQM system. These methods shall

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 26 Page 16 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

include a procedure by which data being collected is checked against known values and telemetry is verified to be functioning. The Contractor Quality Control Plan which describes these methods and procedures shall be included in the DPIP as per section 1.5. This is the only section which shall be submitted to the local district and is a required submittal prior to the start of the contract. CQC Reports may be required at the discretion of the QAR daily. Annotations shall be made in the CQC Report documenting all actions taken on each day of work including all deficiencies found and corrective actions taken.

The Contractor is required to have a current certification from the DQM

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 3 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

for the hopper dredge instrumentation system to be used under this contract. Criteria for certification shall be based on the most recent specification posted on the DQM website (http://dqm.usace.army.mil/Specifications/Index.aspx). Compliance with these criteria shall be verified by annual on-site quality assurance (QA) checks conducted by DQM Support Center Data Acquisition and Analysis Team, and by periodic review of the transmitted data. DQM Certification is valid for one year from the date of the annual QA checks. Certification is contingent upon the system's ability to continuously meet the performance requirements as outlined in sections 3.3 and 3.5. If issues with data quality are not corrected within 48 hours, the system certification shall be revoked and additional QA checks by the Data Acquisition Team may be necessary.

Annual DQM Certification shall be based on:

- A series of QA checks as described in section 3.4 "Compliance Quality Assurance Checks"

- Verification of data acquisition and transfer (Section 3.3)

- Review of the Dredge Plant Instrumentation Plan (DPIP) as described in Section 1.5

The Contractor shall have personnel who are familiar with the system instrumentation and who have the ability to recalibrate the sensors on site during the QA process. The dredging contractor shall coordinate pickup times and locations and provide transportation to and from any platform with a DQM system to team personnel in a timely manner. As a general rule, Data Acquisition and Analysis Team personnel will come with PPE consisting of hardhats, steel toe boots, and life jackets. If additional safety equipment is needed, such as eye protection, safety harnesses, work gloves or personal location beacons, these items shall be provided to the team while on site. It is the dredging contractor's obligation to inform the QA team if the location designated for the QA checks has any site specific safety concerns prior to their arrival on site.

The owner or operator of the hopper dredge shall contact the DQM at [email protected] on an annual basis at least three weeks prior to the certification expiration, to schedule QA checks for renewal. This notification is meant to make the Data Acquisition Team aware of a target date for the annual QA checks for the dredge. At least one week prior to the target date, the Contractor shall contact the Data Acquisition team and verbally coordinate a specific date and time. The contractor shall then follow-up this conversation with a written e-mail confirmation. The owner/operator shall coordinate the QA checks with all local authorities, including but not limited to, the local USACE contracting officer.

Re-certification is required for any yard work which produces modification to displacement (i.e. change in dredge lines, repositioning or repainting hull marks), modification to bin volume (change in bin dimensions or addition or subtraction of structure) or changes in sensor type or location; these changes shall be reported in the sensor log section of the DPIP. A system does not have to be transmitting data between jobs, however in order to retain its certification during this period, the system sensors or hardware should not be disconnected or removed from the dredge. If the system is powered down, calibration coefficients shall be retained.

3.1 REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTED DATA

The Contractor shall provide, operate and maintain all hardware and software to meet these specifications. The Contractor shall be responsible for replacement, repair and calibration of sensors and other necessary data acquisition equipment needed to supply the required data.

Repairs shall be completed within 48 hours of any sensor failure. Upon completion of a repair, replacement, installation, modification or calibration, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). The COR may request re-calibration of sensors or other hardware components at any time during the contract as deemed necessary.

The Contractor shall keep a log of sensor repair, replacement, installation, modification and calibration in the dredge's onboard copy of the DPIP. The log shall contain a three-year history of sensor maintenance to include: the time of sensor failures (and subsequent repairs), the time and results of sensor calibrations, the time of sensor replacements, and the time that backup sensor systems are initiated to provide required data. It shall also contain the name of the person responsible for the sensor work.

Sensors installed shall be capable of collecting parameters within specified accuracies and resolutions indicated in the following subsections and transmit them to the DQM Database.

Reported sensor values for ullage, draft and draghead depth should represent a weighted average with the highest and lowest values not included in the calculated average for the given interval. This information should be documented in the DPIP sections that say "Calculations done external to the instrumentation".

3.1.1 Date and Time

The date and time shall be reported to the nearest second and referenced to UTC time based on a 24 hour format; mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss. This reported time shall be such that it cannot be modified in any computer. One possible solution is to use the time reported by the GPS in the NMEA string.

3.1.2 Load Number

A load number shall document the end of a disposal event. Load numbering will begin at number 1 at the start of the contract, and will be incremented by 1 at the completion of each disposal event or emptying of the hopper. Whenever possible, the load number shall be calculated off of the sensors aboard the dredge, and shall be a mathematically repeatable routine. Efforts shall be made to include logic that avoids false load number increments while also not allowing the routine to miss any disposal event. If manual incrementing of the load number is in place, extra attention should be paid to this value in the contractor's quality control process (section 3.5).

3.1.3 Horizontal Positioning

All locations shall be obtained using a Positioning System operating with a minimum accuracy level of 1 to 3 meters horizontal Circular Error Probable (CEP). Positions shall be reported as Latitude/Longitude WGS 84 in decimal degrees. West Longitude and South Latitude values are reported as negative.

3.1.3.1 Vessel Horizontal Positioning

Geographic coordinates of the vessel as indicated by the location of the GPS antenna.

3.1.3.2 Draghead Horizontal Positioning

Geographic coordinates of the heel on centerline of the draghead(s). Any offset calculations from the GPS antenna should be described in the DPIP.

3.1.4 Hull status

Open/closed status of the hopper dredge, corresponding to the split/non-split condition of a split hull hopper dredge shall be monitored. For dredges with hopper doors, the status of a single door that is the first opened during normal disposal operations may be monitored. An "OPEN" value shall indicate the hopper door is open, or in the case of split hull dredges, the hull is split. A "CLOSED" value indicates the hopper doors are closed, or in the case of split hull dredges, the hull is not split. For this contract, hull status shall register closed prior to leaving the disposal area.

3.1.5 Dredge Course

Dredge course-over-ground (COG) shall be provided using industry standard equipment. The Contractor shall provide dredge course over ground to the nearest whole degree with values from 000 (true north) to 359 degrees referenced to a clockwise positive direction convention.

All reported draft measurements shall be in feet, tenths and hundredths with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 foot, relative to observed physical draft readings. The measurements shall be reported at a resolution of two decimal places (hundredths of a foot). Reported forward draft value shall be equal to the sum of the visual forward port and starboard draft mark readings divided by 2. Reported aft draft value shall be equal to the sum of the visual aft port and starboard draft mark readings divided by 2. Forward draft, aft draft and average draft will be reported. Sensors shall be placed at an optimum location on the vessel to be reflective of observed physical draft mark readings at any trim or list. The sensor value reported shall be n average of at least 10 samples per event, remove at least one maximum value and one minimum value, and average the minimum 8 remaining values. When average draft is calculated for the purpose of determining displacement, significant digits for average draft shall be maintained such that if forward draft was 0.15 and aft draft was 0.1 then the average draft would be 0.125.

3.1.10 Hopper Ullage Sounding

All reported ullage soundings shall be in feet, tenths and hundredths with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 foot with respect to the combing, and be representative of the forward and aft extents of the hopper as close to centerline as is possible. The measurements shall be reported at a resolution of two decimal places (hundredths of a foot). Forward ullage and aft ullage soundings will be reported. Sensors should be mounted so as to avoid discharge flume turbulence, foam and any structure that could produce sidelobe errors. If sensors must be offset from centerline of the hopper they should be offset to opposite sides of the vessel. If more than one fore or one aft sensor is used, they shall be placed near the corners of the hopper and the average value of the fore sensors and the average value of the aft sensors shall be reported The sensor value reported shall be an average of at least 10 samples per event, remove at least one maximum value and one minimum value, and average the minimum 8 remaining values. When average ullage is calculated for the purpose of determining hopper volume, significant digits for average ullage shall be maintained such that if forward ullage was 0.15 and aft ullage was 0.1 then the average ullage would be 0.125.

3.1.11 Hopper Volume

Hopper volume shall be reported in cubic yards, based on the most accurate method available for the dredge. The minimum standard of accuracy for hopper volume is interpolation from the certified hopper volume table, based on the average fore and aft ullage soundings.

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 10 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

3.1.12 Displacement

Dredge displacement shall be reported in long tons, based on the most accurate method available for the dredge. The minimum standard of accuracy for displacement is interpolation from the displacement table, based on the average draft. For this contract the density of water used to calculate displacement shall be 64.0 pounds per cubic foot or its metric equivalent of 1025 kilograms per cubic meter and shall be used for an additional interpolation between the fresh and salt water tables.

3.1.13 Empty Displacement

Empty displacement shall be reported in long tons, and shall be the lightship value of the dredge, or the weight of the dredge with no material in the hopper, adjusted for fuel and water consumption.

3.1.14 Draghead depths

Draghead depths shall be reported with an accuracy of +/- 0.5 feet and a resolution to the nearest 0.1 feet as measured from the surface of the water with no tidal adjustments. Minimum accuracies are conditional to relatively calm water. The sensor value reported shall be an average of at least 10 samples per event, remove at least one maximum value and one minimum value, and average the minimum 8 remaining values.

3.1.15 Slurry Densities of Dragarms

A density metering device, calibrated according to the manufacturer's specifications, shall be used to record the slurry density of each dragarm to the nearest 0.0001 g/cc with an accuracy of +/- 0.001g/cc. If the manufacture does not specify a frequency of re-calibration, calibration shall be conducted prior to commencement of work.

3.1.16 Slurry Velocities of Dragarms

A flow metering device, calibrated according to the manufacturer's specifications, shall be used to record the slurry velocity of each dragarm to the nearest 0.0001 fps with an accuracy of +/- 0.001 fps. If the manufacture does not specify a frequency of re-calibration, calibration shall be conducted prior to commencement of work. The slurry velocity shall be measured in the same pipeline inside diameter as that used for the slurry density measurement.

3.1.17 Pump RPM

Pump RPM shall be measured with the highest level of accuracy that is standard on the vessel operational displays, either at the bridge, at the drag tenders controls, or in the engine room. Dredges with multiple pumps per side shall report RPM for the pump that best describes the dredging process (typically the outboard pump). If requirements of section 3.1.19 are determined based on pump RPM, then that value shall be reported.

3.1.18 Sea Suction Valve for Dragarm

If sea suction can be taken to bypass suction through the draghead, the sea suction location and valve status will be reported. The status of the valve will change from "closed" to "open" when the valve starts to open and will register "closed" when the valve is fully closed. When applicable, the state of the latch will be reported as "true" or "false".

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 11 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

The sea suction location shall be reported in a standard non-changing name string or no more than 20 characters. These field values will always occur in the XML string as a set. The DQM system can only accommodate up to 4 unique sea suction locations. Suggested options for the naming convention can be found in the Example dataset in section 3.2.9, "Data Format".

3.1.19 Pumpout

When the hopper dredge is being pumped out, a "True" value shall be reported; when it is not, a "False" value shall be reported. The only permissible values are "TRUE" and "FALSE".

3.1.20 Project Trip Number

A project trip number is not unique to a particular dredge plant, but is unique to a contract. Like a load number the project trip number shall document the end of a disposal event. Project trip numbering will begin at number 1 at the start of the contract, and will be incremented by 1 at the completion of each disposal event or emptying of the dredge material. Whenever possible, the project trip number shall be calculated off of the sensors aboard the dredge, and shall be a mathematically repeatable routine. Efforts shall be made to include logic that avoids false load number increments while also not allowing the routine to miss any disposal event. If manual incrementing of the load number is in place, extra attention shall be paid to this value in the contractor's quality control process (section 3.5).

3.2 NATIONAL DREDGING QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SYSTEM REQUIRMENTS

Contractors DQM system shall be capable of collecting, displaying, and transmitting information to the DQM Database. The applicable parameters from section 3.1 shall be recorded as events locally and continually transmitted to the DQM Database anytime an internet connection is available. The Dredge shall be equipped with a DQM computer system consisting of a computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse, data modem, UPS, and network hub. The computer system shall be a standalone system, exclusive to the DQM monitoring system, and will have USACE DQM software installed on it. If a hardware problem occurs, or if a part of the system is physically damaged, then the Contractor shall be responsible for repairing it within 48 hours of determination of the condition.

3.2.9 Data Reporting

The system shall transmit correctly formatted event data XML strings to the DQM Database continuously from mobilization until the last USACE post-dredging survey has been accepted. If the internet connection

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 16 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

(section 3.2.6) is non-operable, manual backups from the dredge computer of the XML data string which would have been transmitted to the DQM computer over the serial connection shall be performed for each day the device is inoperable and submitted to the DQM center within 48 hours. This submission does not replace the requirement of correcting the issue affecting automatic transmission of data. In the event of data transfer, transmission, or hardware failure; a manually recorded disposal log shall be maintained. It shall consist of a series of events. These events are: start of dredging, end of dredging, pre-disposal and post-disposal events. Each event shall include: time stamp (GMT), position (Latitude and Longitude WGS84), draft, ullage, volume and displacement. Disposal logs shall be submitted on a daily basis to the Contracting Officer's Representative during the time when the system is not operational.

3.2.10 Contractor Data Backup

The Contractor shall maintain an archive of all data sent to the DQM computer during the dredging contract. The COR may require, at no increase in the contract price, that the Contractor provide a copy of these data covering specified time periods. The data shall be provided in the XML format which would have been transmitted to the DQM computer. There shall be no line breaks between the parameters; each record string shall be on separate line. Naming convention for the files shall be {dredgename}_{StartYYYYMMddhhmmss}_{EndYYYYMMddhhmmss}.txt . Data submission shall be via storage medium acceptable to the COR.

At the end of the dredging contact, the Contractor shall contact the National DQM Support Center prior to discarding the data to ensure it has been appropriately archived. The Contractor shall record in a separate section at the end of the dredge's on-board copy of the DPIP the following information:

a. Person who made the call b. The date of the call c. The DQM representative who gave permission to discard

The same day of the phone call and prior to discarding the data, the Contractor shall submit a "Data Appropriately Archived e-mail" to the local districts Contracting Officer's Representative with the above information, and Cc: the DQM Support Center representative providing permission. In addition to the above information, also include in the e-mail:

d. Project name and contract number e. Dredge start and end dates f. Name of hopper dredge

3.3 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor's DQM system shall be fully operational at the start of dredging operations and fully certified prior to moving dredge material on the contract (see Section 1.4, National Dredging Quality Management Program Certification). To meet contract requirements for operability, in addition to certification, the Contractor's system shall provide an accurate data string return and be compliant with hardware requirements (Section 3.2). Quality data strings are considered to be those providing accurate values for all parameters reported when operating according to the specification. Repairs necessary to restore data return compliance shall be made within 48 hours. If the Contractor fails to report required

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 17 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

data within the specified time window for dredge measurements (see Sections 3.2.7 "Data Measurement Frequency" and 3.2.9 "Data Reporting"); the system will be declared not fully operational, and the Contractor will be assessed liquidated damages equivalent to the additional oversight hours that would be required for Corps personnel to be on site from the first full day after the system is deemed not operational through to the time when the system is returned to fully operational status.

3.4 COMPLIANCE QUALITY ASSURANCE CHECKS

Quality assurance checks are required prior to the commencement of dredging, and at the discretion of a COR periodically throughout the duration of the contract. Detailed instructions for performing these checks and a spreadsheet for recording the results are available at http://dqm.usace.army.mil/Certifications/Index.aspx . Incoming data shall be periodically reviewed to assure compliance with performance requirements outlined in section 3.3. In addition to making sure the data received meets the reporting requirements outlined in the sub sections under section 3.1, a more detailed description of some of the quality assurance methods are outlined below.

For annual instrumentation checks and compliance monitoring, the DQM Data Acquisition Team personnel attempt to be as flexible as possible in performing their checks so as not to delay work; however, in order to expedite matters as much as possible, it is necessary that they receive the support and cooperation of the local district and dredging contractor. The dredging contractor shall coordinate pickup times and locations and provide transportation to and from any platform with a DQM certified system in a timely manner. Calibrations to the sensors should already be performed before DQM personnel arrive on site.

3.4.1 Draft & Displacement Check

The COR shall periodically verify the accuracy of the fore and aft system reported draft values by comparing the vessel hull draft marks to the corresponding sensor readings indicated on the DQM screen. The vessel's hull draft reading shall be viewed from a contractor supplied auxiliary vessel circling the dredge. The COR shall review the difference between averaged drafts recorded by the instruments and those estimated from the draft marks to insure that the system is operating within the acceptable accuracy of approximately +/- 0.1 ft. in calm seas conditions. Reported draft values will be verified light, loaded, and at other intervals at the inspector's discretion. If sensors responsible for collecting draft values are not located on centerline, verification may be required under different trim and list conditions. If values are outside the acceptable range, the Contractor shall re-calibrate or repair system components as necessary. This check may be performed separately or as a part of the Water Load Test. For each system provided fore and aft draft, an average draft value will be calculated during the draft check, and the corresponding displacement will be verified longhand using the supplied draft/displacement tables.

3.4.2 Draghead Depth Check

The COR may require periodic calibration checks of the reported draghead depth using manual means such as tape measures or sounding lines to directly measure draghead depth. The Contractor shall furnish a steel tape, chain, or wire with clearly visible flags/tags placed at 1 foot

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 18 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

increments within the operational range of the dragarm. These devices shall be capable of measuring the depth below the water surface to the lowest fixed point of each draghead (often the heel) with sufficient length to measure 5 feet more than the maximum project depth. Pressure sensors may be used to verify calibration of the draghead sensors only in areas where current flow past the vessel/dragarm cannot be reduced sufficiently to allow safe handling of manual measuring devices. Pressure sensors, used for this purpose shall be vented pressure gages and shall be subjected to an annual manufacturer's calibration. Prior to the dragarm depth check, the sensor shall be checked at a known depth, and may be required to be zeroed at this point according to manufacturer's specifications. Care shall be taken not to kink the cable or restrict the vent during deployment.

The COR shall review the draghead depth data to insure that the system is operating within acceptable accuracy, and may direct the Contractor to re-calibrate or repair system components as necessary. If a bubbler type system is used, weekly calibration of the draghead sensors is recommended, as they are sensitive to environmental conditions.

3.4.3 Ullage Sounding & Volume Check

The COR shall periodically check the reported hopper ullage sounding using a tape measure or other distance measuring device. The Contractor shall furnish a clearly readable weighted tape, marked in tenths of a foot, capable of measuring throughout the full range of hopper depth. The weight for this tape shall be a 6-inch diameter disk weighing between 2 and 3 pounds. The COR shall review the hopper dredge ullage sounding data to insure that the system is operating within acceptable accuracy (0.1 feet). Reported ullage soundings will be verified light, loaded, and at other intervals at the COR's discretion. Measurements can be taken from multiple locations along the combing or from sensor location at the COR's discretion. If values are outside the acceptable range, the Contractor shall re-calibrate or repair system components as necessary. This check may be performed separately or as a part of the Water Load Test. For each sensor provided fore and aft ullage sounding value, an average ullage sounding value will be calculated during the ullage sounding check, and the corresponding volume will be verified longhand using the supplied hopper volume tables.

3.4.4 Position Check

During the QA checks the reported position of the dredge will be verified by comparison with readings from a handheld GPS receiver. Throughout the contract, the COR will periodically take readings from an independent GPS to verify locations.

3.4.5 Water Load Test

Water Tests shall consist of pumping the hopper dredge out to its lowest level and then filling it to capacity with water, taking ullage and draft measurements at both levels to determine hopper dredge volume and displacement. The objective of the water test is to validate the dredge's reported displacement and hopper volumes. If the results of the water test indicate that the system is not operating within acceptable accuracy, the Contractor shall correct the deficiencies causing the error, and repeat the water test until the results are acceptable.

The Contractor shall provide a handheld refractometer with automatic

W912EP-17-B-0003 SECTION 35 20 28 Page 19 Tampa Harbor Maintenance Dredging 32-Foot Project, Alafia River Channel & Turning Basin Manatee Harbor Maintenance Dredging 40-Foot Project, Entrance Channel & Turning Basin

temperature compensation to measure the hopper dredge water specific gravity during water tests. The refractometer shall be capable of measuring the hopper dredge water specific gravity with a resolution of 0.001 and minimum accuracy of +/- 0.001. The Contractor shall also provide a water-sampling device to retrieve a sufficient volume of water from various depths in the hopper dredge to accurately determine specific gravity with the refractometer, and a sufficient volume of deionized water for calibration of the device.

3.5 CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL

Dredging contractor shall designate a quality control systems manager (QCSM), who shall develop and maintain daily procedures to ensure the contractor's quality control (CQC) of the DQM system. These methods shall include a procedure by which data being collected is checked against known values, telemetry is verified to be functioning, and the DQM computer is verified to be on and the DQMOBS is running. The Contractor Quality Control Plan which describes these methods and procedures shall be included in the DPIP as per section 1.5 Table of Contents, item 27. This is the only section which shall be submitted to the local district and is a required submittal prior to the start of the contract. CQC Reports may be required at the discretion of the QAR daily. Annotations shall be made in the CQC Report documenting all actions taken on each day of work including all deficiencies found and corrective actions taken.
