Construction Management Plan Page 1 of 2 MEMORANDUM T O : Mayor and City Council FROM: Jack Wheeler, Capital Asset Manager THRU: Scott Miller, Public Works Director DATE OF MEMO: April 3, 2015 WORK SESSION DATE: April 6, 2015 RE: Civic Space Relocation Project Work Session REQUEST OF COUNCIL: Council to identify important criteria design criteria for the two options PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The last Council action on The Civic Replacement Project was on March 16, consent agenda approvals of the architectural design and construction manager as agent contracts. The team started work on the design process in March. BACKGROUND: The project team has a goal to develop the two options to conceptual level design to present to council on May 19th. The Team held its first stakeholder meeting and public open house on April 2nd to discuss design criteria and find out the important values the community want to see in new facilities. The results of the meetings are attached. DISCUSSION: The project has two significant parts, city offices and a police facility. We know that the solution needs to be humble, responsible, far reaching, and appropriate to the community values. The discussion today, led by Charles Cunniffe, of Charles Cunniffe Architects, and Richard Shaw of Design Workshop, is to review with Council what we heard at the meeting held on April 2 and to have a discussion on what council would like to bring forward as criteria design values. The stakeholder were identified as people who had a direct connection or interest to the project, i.e. neighbors, users, elected officials, candidates, and staff. We had a great turn out and significant participation responding to the questions. The public open house saw great participation responding to the questions. Rob Taylor with Rider Levett Bucknall has complied a summary (attached) of the responses and details area that in the future meeting we will need further clarification. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS: The project team is in the process of defining the design criteria for a sustainable long lasting responsible facility. One of the major components is whether or not we should achieve LEED certification. While there is cost to hang the plaque, the team feels that this a recognizable standard that speaks to who we are as a community. The cost of the certification brings a value and knowledge in a measurable accountable process. FINANCIAL/BUDGET IMPACTS: The project budget remains unchanged and the team is using the ROM budget as the cost containment benchmark. We are currently including the cost of the LEED certifications within the ROM budget. P1 I. Page 2 of 2 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Council to give the team direction on criteria design to maintain a set a values as the design of the project moves forward.

The stakeholder group and community were invited to attend sessions at the Rio Grande Meeting room on April 2, 2015 at 12:00pm and 5:00pm respectively. This memo covers the ranking of each of 11 questions that were posed to the groups. The stakeholders and community were invited to prioritize their position on a topic by placin g a colored dot along a scale (refer Attachment B) Background With future loss of leases to the Housing Dept, Building and Engineering Depts and Aspen Police Dept, the facilities masterplan was developed through 2014 to propose various options as a solution to the City of Aspen’s current departmental space shortages and needs. On November 17, 2014 Council gave direction to further the two options generally favored by the stakeholder group and community. These are the options at the Armory/540 Main St and Rio Grande/540 Main St. Community Group Top 5 Prioritized Scores  Against, inclusion of an affordable restaurant  Yes, for the concept at Rio Grande/540 Main  Yes, for limited use of community gathering at City Service building  Yes, for world class sustainability  Yes, for humble architectural presence Stakeholder Group Top 5 Prioritized Scores  Yes, for two building configuration  Yes, for the concept at Rio Grande/540 Main  Yes, for interior space at Police to facilitate greater community interaction  Yes, for outdoor public space  Against, the concept at Armory/540 Main P52 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 2 Common Ground  Support, high sustainable goals, at least LEED gold  Support, 40 year future needs planning  Against, the concept at Armory/540 Main  Support, the concept at Rio Grande/540 Main Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 20%40%60%80%100% 1 Sustainable Goals Average, to world class Community Stakeholder Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 20%40%60%80%100% 5 Future Needs Planning 10 years to 50 years Community Stakeholder P53 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 3 Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 20%40%60%80%100% 10 Concept at Armory/540 Main Not favored, to favored Community Stakeholder Community Stakeholder 0 5 10 15 20 25 20%40%60%80%100% 11 Concept at Rio Grande/540 Main Not favored, to favored Community Stakeholder P54 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 4 Middle Ground  architectural character - leans to agreement for forward looking  affordable restaurant - leans to a no, community strongly against, stakeholders would consider  configuration - agreement for less buildings, community more accepting of 3 addresses, stakeholder preference for 2 addresses Largest “within group” variance/disagreement – need to investigate this further  community group - architectural character - split between traditional and innovative Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 20%40%60%80%100% 2 Architectural Character Traditional to innovative Community Stakeholder Community Stakeholder 0 5 10 15 20 25 20%40%60%80%100% 8 Incorporate Affordable Restaurant Strongly no, to strongly yes Community Stakeholder P55 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 5 Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20%40%60%80%100% 9 Configuration Multiple locations, to few locations Community Stakeholder P56 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 6 Largest Variance Between Stakeholders and Community  architectural presence - stakeholders tending toward important presence, community tends toward middle ground, less attention  public outdoor space - stakeholders strongly in favor of high level of public gathering space, community tends toward small/low key space  community interaction at police - agreement on some space with stakeholders more in favor of space to facilitate stronger community-police interaction  community meeting at city services building - stakeholders tend toward having more interior meeting space for community, community sees this should be limited space Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 20%40%60%80%100% 3 Architectural Presence Humble to landmark Community Stakeholder Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 20%40%60%80%100% 4 Public Outdoor Space None to high level Community Stakeholder P57 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 7 Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 20%40%60%80%100% 6 Community Interaction at Police Facility None to a high level Community Stakeholder Community Stakeholder 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20%40%60%80%100% 7 Community Meeting Space at City Facility None, to a high level Community Stakeholder P58 I. 03 April 2015 Memorandum Page 8 Next steps Five key criteria need to be reviewed more with the stakeholder and community groups to understand variances:  architectural presence - stakeholders tending toward important presence, community tends toward middle ground with less attention  public outdoor space - stakeholders strongly in favor of connection with outdoor, community tends toward small/low key space  community interaction at police - agreement on some space with stakeholders more in favor of space to facilitate interaction  community meeting at city services building - stakeholders tend toward having more interior meeting space for community, community sees this should be limited space  community group - architectural character variance – given the within group split between traditional and innovative, more understanding of both viewpoints is required to help ensure the building looks the way the community desires Please contact me for any queries relating the attached or above.

Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 1 of 6 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Trish Aragon, P.E., City Engineer Chris Bendon, Director of Community Development Tyler Christoff, P.E., Senior Project Manager Tony Kornasiewicz, Construction Mitigation Officer Scott Miller, Capital Asset Director CJ Oliver, Director of Environmental Health DATE: April 2, 2015 MEETING DATE: April 6, 2015 RE: Revisions to the Construction Mitigation Requirements REQUEST OF COUNCIL: Staff seeks Council input regarding the Construction Mitigation Program rules. This includes establishing parameters for mitigating impacts of encroachments including duration, size, penalties and aesthetics. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: City Council approved the creation and implementation of the Construction Mitigation Program in April of 2006. Below is a timeline of this program.  April 2006: The City creates the Construction Mitigation Program to reduce the impact of construction on the general public and to provide a liaison between the City, contractors, and the general public. This is accomplished by requiring contractors to submit a plan detailing how they intend to meet all city codes during construction.  March 2007: The Original Plan Requirement Manual is drafted and presented at a work session. The Plan lays out explicit rules and codes construction projects must obey with the overall goal of balancing the needs of construction while maintaining our mountain character for our Citizens and Tourists.  April 2007: Edits from the March 2007 work session are incorporated into the “Plan.” These edits include an established haul route, restricting work hours from 12 hours per day to 10 hours per day, creating the Aspen Holiday List, which restricts construction on federal holidays and during special events such as the Food and Wine Classic.  April 2007: The start and end time for weekday work is altered to 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.  May 2007: The original start and end times, which were 7 a.m. – 5 p.m., are re-instated.  January 2008: The program is expanded to include inspections on all active projects regardless of impact. Additional inspections were also added which included sediment and erosion control and parking.  May 2009: Three changes/additions were made: o Manufacturing Restrictions: Require all manufacturing activities (i.e. stone cutting) to be conducted offsite, reducing the duration and overall impact to surrounding neighborhoods. Additionally, if a further modification to the material is required, then the hours of operation will be limited to 9 a.m. – 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. P61 II. Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 2 of 6 o Holiday Hours: Creation of a new geographic zone in town to help address the impacts of construction while at the same time maintaining a resort atmosphere in the community. This zone is referred to as the Central Resort Area (CRA). The geographic boundaries mirror the expanded pay-to-park area. This boundary was chosen because the area is impacted heavily during special events and the winter / summer tourist season. The adoption of the CRA allows work in the “non-core” neighborhoods, which are less impacted during the peak seasons. Below is a summary of the requirements: Thank sgiving X mas Week X mas Day New Year’s Day President s Day Memorial Day Food & Wine 4th of July Labor Day Central Resort Area (CRA) closed closed closed closed closed closed closed closed closed Outside CRA i.e. “non- core” closed open closed closed open closed open closed closed o Superfund Permitting: Alterations were made to the Smuggler Mountain Superfund Site Soil Removal Permit to stream line the process and ensure the sites are captured in regular inspections.  May 2010: Time restrictions were modified to allow 24-hour interior work in the CRA. Weekday construction hours were modified to 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. during the on-season and 8 a.m. – 7 p.m. during the off-season.  May 2012: Erosion and sediment control section was updated. CRA hours and zone was revisited but Council decided to not modify rules related to CRA.  July 2012: Weekday Construction hours were modified to 7:30 am – 5:30 pm year round.  September 2012: Creation of the encroachment zone map limiting duration of encroachments by creating the Red (near the Mall), Orange (a block out side of the Mall) and Yellow (two blocks outside of the Mall) Zones.  February 24, 2015: New revisions were presented to Council. Council asked staff to come back at the April 6 worksession to provide more detail on the proposed revisions. BACKGROUND: The Mayor initiated a series of public outreach meetings (on November 3rd, November 5th, November 12th, and January 7th) with the goal of receiving input on how to make the City more livable and desirable with the increased construction activity. The goals of these meetings included the following:  Reduce the duration of projects  Limit noise impacts from earth retention systems  Reduce the number of parking spaces used  Give an area a reprieve from all construction  Further reduce noise impacts on residential areas  Limit the size and duration of encroachments  Reduce impacts on adjacent businesses Additionally input was received through the Open City Hall Site and through direct outreach from staff to citizens and the business community including meeting with CCLC and ACRA. Attachment A contains the input received since the February 24th worksession. P62 II. Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 3 of 6 DISSCUSION: Below is a culmination of reasonable improvements to the City’s Construction Mitigation Program. Staff views this as an iterative process where after these improvements are implemented, the program needs to be reevaluated to see if it meets the City’s goal in facilitating Construction in a manner that maintains our mountain town character for both our citizens and visitors. The program is designed in a way to create clear and predicable framework for facilitating construction. The program is also designed in a way that if a site does not comply with the City’s construction rules, the site will incur progressive penalties and delays. Keep in mind that this program is a framework for construction and that we need to be flexible because each project is unique. As a result the program does depend on the City Engineer and / or a Construction Management Committee to make determinations of variances and exceptions on a site by site basis. Immediate improvements proposed: Below is a list of immediate improvements that can be implemented. Attachment C includes a redline version of the City’s Construction Management Program that incorporates these changes. Construction Hours  Extend the definition of Christmas week and do not allow for construction in the Core during this week. For years when Christmas falls on a Friday the “week” is defined as Monday (the 20th) to Friday (the 1st). However exceptions may be granted for indoor work only. Community Impacts  Require sites to accommodate adjacent businesses. This can include limiting work during sales events (for a maximum of 2 sales events a year), maintaining site lines to these businesses, and providing signage on the construction site for the adjacent businesses.  Creation of a Construction Mitigation Committee (CMC) to review exemptions for project duration, number of encroachments and noise exceptions. All exemptions are subject to additional fees.  Creation of an appeal process for decisions made by the (CMC) and or the City Engineer (or designee). The appeals will go to the City Manager or their designee for a final determination of the exemption request.  Require sites to reduce their landfill waste. Each site will need to demonstrate how they will comply with the City’s waste reduction requirements through a waste reduction and diversion plan. Parking / Encroachments  Require sites develop a Traffic Demand Management (TDM) plan to mitigate the impacts of traffic and parking.  Specifying the size of encroachments and duration of encroachments (i.e. red, yellow orange zones). Red zone one encroachment, Yellow zone two encroachments, Orange zone three encroachments. Allow for larger encroachments if the site can demonstrate the benefits of doing so. Site will be required to submit two schedules one with a larger encroachment and one without. Enforcement  Adding the use of “stop work orders” and citations for the following circumstances: o Work without a permit P63 II. Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 4 of 6 o Work that is endangering public safety o Work that is endangering public health including work that may affect water quality. o Work on holidays or Sundays (unless the site received an exemption to work during these times) o Require that the general contractor is responsible for subs. If a sub violates our rules the general will be ultimately responsible  Require certain sized sites have a third party CMP monitor. This person is responsible for construction mitigation on the site, including keeping logs on encroachments, parking, noise, stormwater BMPs, waste management and recycling. We will require that these logs be made available to the City. Additionally, sites that receive two correction notices or one red tag will be required to have a third party CMP monitor. Noise  Require large projects (as determined by impact and location) hire a sound engineer/consultant model the site plans and insert noise sources and specify noise mitigation measures to see how noise levels will be impacted. The models can show the anticipated noise levels at various locations surrounding the project and can take into account a variety of proposed mitigation measures.  Establishment of decibel limits this will include: o Limiting noise levels for the summer on season for impactful residential projects to 65 Db (with allowances to go 10 Db over for short durations) o Limiting noise levels for the summer and winter on season for impactful projects located on the Mall to 65 Db (with allowances to go 10 Db over for short durations) o Limiting noise levels in the summer on seasons in the Core to 75 Db (with allowances to go 10 Db over for short durations) o All other projects and seasons will be limited to 80 Db at the property line (with allowances to go 5 Db over for short durations).  Allowance for an excess noise exception from the above limits will be reviewed by the City Engineer. Criteria for the exemption include: o Where it is in the interest of public safety o Public infrastructure work within the Right of Way o Other activities within the Right of Way where there is no other reasonable alternative.  Require the use of continued noise monitoring for sites that have a large impact and for sites that receive continued (verified) neighborhood complaints. Allow remote online access to the system for the City’s Construction Mitigation Officer.  Utilize the City’s noise meter to monitor sites that we receive complaints on. The City will use this meter on sites that receive neighborhood complaints. If the complaints are verified there will be a rental fee associated with the City’s noise meter. Immediate minor improvements proposed: The list below is considered minor because it is either something the City already require by policy or it clarifies the intent of current rules.  Add additional work restrictions to Aspen Events such as the USA Pro Cycling challenge and Farmer’s Market  Create a contractor / community panel to provide input on construction mitigation on an annual and as needed basis. P64 II. Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 5 of 6  Limit the impacts of soldier beam caissons and mico piles in the ROW.  Limitations on sidewalk closures. Pedestrians must be accommodated without having to cross the street. Short duration closures in the core may be considered during the off season.  The Noise Section should be modified so that current requirements are clearly outlined.  Require that the type and look of project fencing be pre-approved by the Engineering Department.  The Stormwater section has been modified so that current requirements are clearly outlined. Recommendations that require more research and community input: Staff is requesting Council input on the following options. After receiving input staff will come back to Council with specific recommendations along with associated costs to implement. Public Outreach  Create a web site where citizens can access a site’s construction mitigation plan. Utilize this site to gather citizen input and to communicate a project’s progress and upcoming impacts.  Require documentation that neighborhood has been notified on project’s progress and impacts. Enforcement  Increase enforcement staffing  Increase our enforcement penalties for repeat offenders.  Develop a CMP certification system utilizing an on line training program and our business licensing system Ideas that have not been recommended at this time:  Noise canceling systems: These are systems that send out anti-noise through the use of speakers. They are currently being used in Japan. Through our research we have determined that these systems are just too new and have not been fully vetted. There are no production models available and they will not address the large impact noises such as soil nailing. Staff will continue to monitor this technology as it advances.  Construction pacing: Cities can regulate the pace of growth by metering land use entitlements (growth management). Or regulate the pace of development activity through metering building permits (pacing). The value of a growth management system is that meters entitlements and that we a familiar with the system. The downside is that entitlements can “stack-up” and can be deployed in bunches and the fact that most of our development activity is not actually “growth” but rather redevelopment of existing buildings/uses. We have very rarely seen a limiting environment in growth management in that past 15-20 years – it’s more theory than practical. The upside of a pacing system is that is occurs much closer to the construction activity and can better meter the pace of construction. It treats growth and redevelopment the same which is a better way to manage development activity. The downsides are that we would need to create a system that will go through the period of adjusting it for logistics, expectations, etc., which could take years. Because it may be more practical and effect more property owners, it will be subject to more community debate. P65 II. Construction Mitigation Program Changes Page 6 of 6 A pacing system may present difficulty arbitrating between vested rights and construction timing – most of our large projects go through a land use review and receive a statutory vested right. This differs from these pacing examples where the projects subject to pacing are only subject to permit review – it looks like most of these program exempt projects that have a vested right. This last point would require a lot more research. The concern is that we require someone to apply for a permit within three years (or their approval expires) but may also be preventing the same person from applying for a permit for three or more years. e.g. If the faucet is larger than the drain there could be problems.  Use of precast and panelized systems. They may affect the duration of a project however they do cost much more than traditional systems. Currently there are limited suppliers for these systems.  Extend construction hours. Currently the hours are 7:30am to 5:30 pm Mon through Fri and 9am to 5pm on Saturday. Due to citizen concern, staff is not recommending an extension of these hours.  Limit the types of backup alarms: Backup alarms can be very impactful to neighboring properties. One way to limit this is to require sites use a spotter or instead of a backup alarm or the use of an adjustable backup alarm.  Require the type of equipment that can be used: There are types of equipment that may be quieter than others such as compressors powered by electricity and silent pile drivers.  Limit Duration of projects to 18 months with allowance for a 6 month extension. Projects requesting an extension will be subject to an increase in Construction Mitigation Fees.  Require a survey to be sent out to neighboring properties to rate the construction site. (I.e. 1 – 5 star rating that is published on how a site is doing with noise, dust, parking, waste reduction etc…) In addition to the survey actual numbers on noise, dust, and waste reduction will be included to be entered by the construction mitigation officer. Parking o Allow the intercept lot to be used for staging. o Require that sites schedule deliveries outside of peak hours o Encourage the use of the Rio Grande Parking Garage through the use of discounted fees o Require On-site equipment storage and/or shuttling  Incentivize projects that are completed within an 18 month timeline. To qualify the project would need to be characterized as a major project located in the commercial core area.

COMMERCIAL CORE & LODGING COMMISSION MINUTES OF MARCH 18, 2015 1 Chairperson, Riley Rippet called the meeting to order at 8:30 a.m. Commissioners in attendance were Kiki Raj, Bill Dinsmoor, Terry Butler and Fred Ayarza. Don Sheeley and Siam Castillo were absent. Staff: Kathy Strickland, Chief Deputy Clerk Dan Nelson, Parks Trish Aragon, Engineering Department Head Tony Kornasiewicz, Engineering MOTION: Fred moved to approve the minutes of March 4, 2015, second by Terry. All in favor, motion carried. Construction Mitigation: Bill said if you want people to come to meetings it has to be one on one. Trish said she went to council with 38 recommendations. The meeting was continued to April 6th as council needed more information. Trish identified the proposal. Parking and sidewalks: Traffic demand management plan implemented. Vans, shuttles, car pools to reduce the amount of trips and spots that construction sites are using. Eliminate the size of encroachments: Outline specific sizes. You get so much square footage. In the mall they can go out five feet. Five feet is the size of the scaffolding and you can still walk by in the malls. Pedestrians need to be accommodating during construction. Earth retention systems: Pinning, soil nails. No nails within the first 7 feet down in the utility zone. You won’t be able to lay back the soils. Proposed public outreach: Create a website so you can see where construction is happening. That way for the public can communicate to a particular site. Do a survey performance rating on dust, parking and waste management. Terry suggested the survey should be a monthly thing. P68 II. COMMERCIAL CORE & LODGING COMMISSION MINUTES OF MARCH 18, 2015 2 Trish said the sites need to engage with their neighbors and communicate with their neighbors. Kiki said a person should be available one hour a week to communicate with the neighbors. Noise: Required to hire a sound engineer. Core: 24 hour construction if it is indoor work such as tenant finishes. Hours: Council agreed to not change the hours. 7:30 to 5:30 construction hours over 80 decibels it starts at 9:00 Riley said there are commercial impacts vs. residential impacts. Trish said they do accommodate the core currently. As far as noise we don’t differentiate decibel levels. Trish said we work with all the different parties. Kiki said hotels should be considered differently as a neighbor for construction. Tony said the noisiest is the first steps. We don’t exempt hours during the first steps of the project. From contractors they need the hours adjusted near the end of the work, painters, dry wallers etc. We might exempt the hours during the end of the project. Trish reiterated that during high impact times we would not adjust the hours. Above 80 decibels you need to mitigate. 65 decibels in residential areas, 80 decibels all others. We are requiring an actual decibel meter on the site which will help with our enforcements. Kiki said you need personal responsibility. If the alarm goes off that person should be contacted immediately to address the meter going off. Businesses: No work hours during XMAS week in the CRA central resort area. National holidays are no work days. Trish said they are proposing restricting hours in the core. P69 II. COMMERCIAL CORE & LODGING COMMISSION MINUTES OF MARCH 18, 2015 3 Kiki proposed no work during the first week of August because that is the busiest time in the core for businesses. Trish said council is receptive of extending hours during XMAS. Terry said she is favorable of no work hours during XMAS. The first week in August is huge and possible have a no work week then. Bill said instead of restricting hours we should be addressing managing the projects, noise and dust in a better manner. Riley said the work hours during the holiday OK know that they can be adjusted as need be. That would be proactive instead of saying no work at all. Riley and Bill said do not add another week in August. Trish said council criticized us on sites and adjacent businesses. The site needs to accommodate the adjacent businesses. Council wants more specifics around accommodation. Riley said there is a communication piece and you need an accountable person. Kiki said not all the rules are going to work for everybody. Riley suggested identifying the time line. Know and identify the exact impacts of the adjacent business. Each business will be different. Riley said know the construction calendar and ask the business for their calendar and if they see any conflict with the calendar. Riley suggested the two business sign off on their calendars. Terry said in an ideal world we would have the head of construction and government get together. Have someone with authority meet three times a day with the head of construction. Possibly an independent contractor should be hired. P70 II. COMMERCIAL CORE & LODGING COMMISSION MINUTES OF MARCH 18, 2015 4 Fred said the number one issue is communication. You need to start with communication. If communication isn’t there nothing gets done. P71 II.

Pollution Plan Requirements I – Construction Waste Management Plan   P75 II. 1        1.0 GENERAL   1.1 PURPOSE P76 II. 2      The purpose of this Construction Management Plan Manual is to provide a consistent policy under which certain physical aspects of construction management will be implemented. The elements contained in this document are related to the development process. It is intended that they apply to both public and private work designated herein.   These standards cannot anticipate all situations. They are intended to assist, but not to substitute for competent work by design and construction professionals. The City of Aspen does not intend to limit any innovative or creative efforts that could result in better quality, greater cost savings, or both. Any proposed departure from the manual will be judged on the likelihood that such variance will produce a comparable result, adequate for the user and City resident over the duration of the improvement/project.   If the project changes ownership or contracting services change, the City Engineering Department must be notified, and must agree to comply with an approved CMP in writing. Any departure from the approved CMP must be submitted in writing and approved by the City Engineer. The approved construction management plan must be kept onsite.   1.2 APPLICABILITY   This manual shall govern the construction and development of all public and private construction projects in the City of Aspen. These regulations shall apply to all commercial, industrial, residential, and mixed use developments which disturb 1000 SF or greater or require demolition, improvement, or renovation (interior and/or exterior) of 400 SF or greater within any twelve-month period.   1.3 DEFINITIONS AND TERMS   Construction Management Plan – A Construction Management Plan is a combination of diagrams, documents, drawings, and specifications that clearly define the steps that will be taken to demonstrate how the impacts to the community will be minimized. How the impacts associated with any construction project will be managed. Herein described as “Plan” throughout the remainder of this policy.   Construction Mitigation Officer – An appointed employee of the City of Aspen whose charge is to ensure that all aspects of a Construction Management Plan are followed, and to further ensure that the impacts associated with construction activities within the City of Aspen are effectively managed and impacts associated with those projects are the least necessary to accomplish the project.   Disturbance Area – A portion of land where topsoil or native soils have been removed for purposes of construction (development).     Best Management Practices (BMP’s) – Schedules of activities, prohibitions of P77 II. 3    practices, maintenance procedures, and other management practices to prevent or reduce the pollution of waters of the state. BMP’s also include treatment requirements, operating procedures, and practices to control site runoff, spillage or leaks, waste disposal, or drainage from material storage.   Tree Dripline and Protection Zone - Use the longest branch of the tree as a radius from the center of the tree and make a circle. The circle is then defined as the dripline and thus is the tree protection zone.   Final Stabilization – Uniform vegetative cover has been established with a density of at least 70 percent of pre-disturbed levels. Major Impact: Major projects as defined by the Urban Runoff Management Plan (URMP). Moderate Impact: Minor project as defined by the URMP and located in the CRA. Minor Impact: Minor project as defined by the URMP and located outside of the CRA.   1.4 REFRENCES   A. City of Aspen Construction and Mitigation Standards for Work in the Public Rights-of-Way B.

Soil disturbance shall be kept to a minimum. Construction staging and phasing shall occur, where applicable, to minimize soil disturbance time.   2.2 LOCATION A project vicinity map shall be included in the Plan. The map should accurately P78 II. 4    depict general project location within the City of Aspen and also delineate project extents. The map shall be a scaled drawing that includes a directional arrow and adjacent street descriptions.     2.3 DESCRIPTION   The Plan shall include an overview of the construction project including background information, proposed development type and general information. The proposed effect on public utilities such as storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water main, etc. should also be described.   3.0 PROJECT DOCUMENTATION   3.1 PERMITS / OTHER DOCUMENTS   The contractor shall maintain all applicable local, state and federal licenses and permits that apply to the construction project. Applicable permits shall be listed, described and copies of the documents shall be attached in Plan appendices. In addition to permits all PUD’s, Subdivision Improvement Agreements, and Related City Ordinances must also be attached in the Plan appendices.   3.2 PUBLIC NOTIFICATION   A project update shall be provided to the public on a basis no less than monthly, via website, newspaper, on-site notices, or other accepted means of notification (per request of the City of Aspen). The first public notification shall occur no later than 10 days prior to construction. The update shall include a description of the current project phase, list any traffic and/or pedestrian concerns, and describe hauling/staging operations.   The above notification shall specifically be distributed to neighbors located within 300 feet of the project property.   The Plan shall designate a project representative, date, and time for a required preconstruction meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the project and summarize the project specific Construction Management Plan. The contractor and subcontractors are required to attend the meeting. Utility personnel, applicable City departments, the Roaring Fork Transit Authority, neighboring property owners, and the Aspen School District shall also be notified.   P79 II. 5    3.3 PROJECT SIGN   A project sign shall be constructed and posted that includes the items shown in Appendix A: Required Construction Sign.   The sign shall be posted in a location where it is readable from the street or driveway and shall meet criteria in City Municipal Code 26.510.030B4.   3.4 CONTACT DESIGNATION   The Plan shall have a contact list with associated phone numbers located at the front of the document. The list will include: the owner, contractor appointed overall site supervisor, a state certified safety officer, a state certified traffic control officer, and a state certified erosion control representative.   Other information shall include city and county phone numbers, fire department, police department, Roaring Fork Transit Authority (RFTA), school district, and all applicable utility company contact information. The contact list should include hospital contact information and the Emergency 911 reminder.   4.0 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION   4.1 DATES OF CONSTRUCTION   Dates of construction shall be specified in the Plan. Any work being performed within City ROW shall be completed as per the City of Aspen Right of Way permit requirements.   4.2 HOURS OF CONSTRUCTION   Construction hours shall be limited to 7:30am – 5:30pm Monday through Friday and 9am – 5pm on Saturday. No construction is permitted on Sundays, 4th of July day and/or weekend if it falls on a Friday or Monday, Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Years Day.   During Presidents Day and during the Christmas week (12/26-12/31): • projects located in the Central Resort Area (CRA) are not permitted to work on any exterior elements, however interior work may be permitted with prior approval. • projects outside the CRA will be permitted to work. During the Christmas week (12/26-12/31): • projects located in the Central Resort Area (CRA) are not permitted to work on any exterior elements, however interior work may be permitted with prior approval. P80 II. 6    • projects outside the CRA will be permitted to work. During Holiday Season:  Holiday Season is defined as the days of the week leading up to Christmas until New Year’s Day. For example if Christmas falls on a Wednesday, Holiday Season is defined as that Monday (the 23rd ) through the next Wednesday (the 1st). If Christmas falls on a Thursday, Holiday Season is defined as two weeks the Monday (the 21st ) Through the next Thursday (the 1st).  projects located in the Core are not permitted to work on any exterior elements, however interior work will be permitted.   During the Food & Wine Festival in June (Friday thru Saturday): • projects located in the Central Resort Area (CRA) are not permitted to work projects outside the CRA will be permitted to work.   The CRA area and Core isCore is defined in Appendix F.   Specific indoor activities during restricted periods may be permitted with approval from the City of Aspen Engineering Department; specific conditions will be applied to each project separately. During the off-season 24 hour a day interior work may be permitted within the CRA, the applicant must present a work plan to the City of Aspen Engineering Department and the plan must be approved prior to working outside of the normal construction hours. Additional restrictions on construction hours and encroachments will be applied for Aspen Special Events. Examples of events that will require additional restrictions include the USA Pro Cycling Challenge and the Farmer’s Market. Additional restrictions on construction hours will also be applied based on the project’s specific impacts on adjoining properties. tThis can include limitingincludes limiting work during sales events (for a maximum of two sales events per year), maintaining site lines to these businesses, and providing signage on the construction site advertising the adjacent business. adjusting work hours to accommodate adjacent retail stores, lodges and restaurants. For example, if an adjoining business has an event (such as a semi annualsemiannual sale) the project will accommodate this adjoining business to ensure the construction activities do no adversely affect that business’s event.   All activity that generates noise in excess of 80 decibels requires a noise suppression plan and is restricted to operating between the hours of 9am and 5pm Monday through Friday. 4.3 SEQUENCE (PHASING) OF CONSTRUCTION   A construction schedule including all project phasing, with item details, and specific item completion dates or duration of phasing is required.   P81 II. 7    4.4 ADJOINING PROPERTIES No person shall excavate on land close enough to a property line to endanger any adjacent public street, sidewalk, and alley, other public or private property, or easement, without supporting and protecting the property from any damage that might result from construction operations. Additionally the project must identify which adjoining properties will be most affected by the project and how the project intends on mitigating the impacts to those properties. This includes identifying adjacent businesses and understanding what events (such as sale events) and programs that business has scheduled throughout the year. The project will be required to work with the adjoining properties to mitigate impacts to their events and programs. This also includes maintaining sight lines to adjacent businesses. Lastly the needs of adjoining construction projects must not be compromised.   4.5 PROJECT FENCING All construction areas shall have a non-removable construction fence or other approved device securely placed around the areas to be protected. The fence shall be six feet (6') in height and constructed out of chain-link fence with mesh windscreens (visual barriers). The type and look of fencing must be approved by the Engineering Department. Please see Section 11 for fencing noise suppression techniques.   4.6 CONSTRUCTION MITIGATION PROGRAM MONITOR   Major construction sites that require earth stabilization along the property line will be required to hire a third party Construction Mitigation Program Monitor (CMP Monitor). Additionally sites which have two correction notices or one stop work order will be required to hire a third party CMP Monitor. This monitor will be responsible for ensuring the site is complying with the City’s Construction Mitigation requirements. The CMP Monitor will inspect the site though out the day and will maintain logs on the site’s encroachments, parking, noise levels, stormwater BMPs, TMD measures, waste management and recycling. These logs will be made available to the City’s Construction Mitigation Officer.      P82 II. 8    4.6 PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE   All construction projects located within the City of Aspen shall uphold utmost respect to public health and welfare and be reflected in prepared Plan. 4.7 NATURAL ENVIRONMENT   Project construction shall be oriented to minimize harm to all aspects of the City of Aspen’s natural environment. All tree and natural resource protection measures must be identified in the Plan and in place prior to the commencement of any construction or demolition activities. Refer to section 13.20.020b of the Municipal Code for tree protection and removal requirements and process.   The Plan must contain a site map showing exact tree protection fence location and accurate tree driplines (refer to Section 1.3 for dripline definition).   Proposed projects should be consistent with the character of existing land use in the surrounding area.   5.0 SITE AND RIGHT OF WAY PARKING MANAGEMENT   5.1 RIGHT OF WAYPARKING MANAGEMENT PLANFORM   A Parking Plan outlining the use the of the Right-of-way (ROW) must be submitted as part of the CMP. requested, specified and submitted as part of the CMP. This plan will identify areas of encroachments including the use of parking spaces for the project. The use of the ROW will be limited according to the requirements outlined in Section 5.6.   5.2 EMERGENCY VEHICLE ACCESS AND ORDINANCE 35   The contractor shall maintain continuous emergency vehicle access, on and around site, including but not limited to police, fire, and ambulance services. This includes projects adjacent to roads and alleys.   All Plans shall include a copy and show compliance with Ordinance 35.   5.3 CONSTRUCTION PARKING DETAILS   Specific construction parking spaces/areas may be requested for use by craftsman, subcontractors, and contractors involved in the site construction process. Prior to the City allowing for construction parking spaces, the project must demonstrate that it has minimized the amount of vehicles traveling to the site. This will be demonstrated P83 II. 9    throughdemonstrated through Traffic Demand Management (TDM) Plan. A sites TDM plan must include the following: Minor Impact – Select one or more of the following Moderate Impact – Select two or more of the following Major Impact – Select three or more of the following Project-Sponsored Vanpool - Employer-sponsored vanpool programs entail an employer purchasing or leasing vans for employee use, and subsidizing the cost of program operations and administration. The driver usually receives personal use of the van, often for a mileage fee. Scheduling is within the employer’s purview, and rider charges are normally set on the basis of vehicle and operating cost. The successful project will implement an employer-sponsored vanpool, thus reducing the need for SOV trips to and from the worksite. Note: To receive credit, project staff must park and be picked up no further up valley than the Brush Creek Intercept Lot. Enforcement: A vanpool route and schedule should be submitted as part of the CMP. Staff may audit the route to ensure its presence. Project Shuttle - Offering employees a customized trip to work via private shuttle reduces the need for SOV trips. The successful project will provide a convenient, regularly scheduled employee shuttle from a Park & Ride, Intercept lot or other identified pick up points to the worksite. To receive credit, project staff must park and be picked up no further up valley than the Brush Creek Intercept Lot. Enforcement: A shuttle route and schedule should be submitted as part of the CMP. Staff may audit the route to ensure its presence. Carpool Program – The successful project will require employees to form carpool groups of two or more adults to reach the worksite. To receive credit, carpools should originate no further up valley than the Brush Creek Intercept Lot. Enforcement: carpool passes should be kept may be requested. Transit Fare Subsidy - The successful project will provide fully subsidized daily or monthly public transit passes for the RFTA valley system. Enforcement: Records of the purchase and subsidies must be kept and may be requested. Parking Cash-out - The term cash-out is used to describe the provision of employee choice of forgoing their current subsidized/free parking for a cash payment equivalent to the cost of the parking space. The successful project will require provide no free parking for workforce and will provide a cash subsidy to those who in Aspen City limits via transit, vanpool, bicycle or walk modes. Enforcement: records of the parking cash out must be kept and may be requested. Customized Program – This option allows for the project to propose a measure not listed above. If this option is chosen, a narrative should appear below and must include the following information for staff review: * d e s c r i p t i o n o f m e a s u r e P84 II. 10    * j u s t i f i c a t i on of measure *route and schedule if applicable * e n f o r c e m e n t options After demonstrating that the project has minimized the amount of vehicles traveling to the site, through the use of a TDM,T the City will allows minimal onsite parking with public transportation as the preferred method of transportation. Transportation options may include, but are not limited to carpool, vanpool, public transportation, paid shuttle for transporting workers to the site, etc.   No construction parking will be permitted within the free two-hour residential parking areas without a valid permit. 5.4 STAGING AREAS   The Plan shall specify construction staging area locations. Alleyways are preferred short term staging locations without blocking access to neighboring properties. The number of truckloads expected to and from the site should be estimated (including soil hauling and materials transport). The timing and duration of the transport vehicles should also be noted.   City of Aspen personnel can limit project staging locations, number of trucks, and duration of operations depending on project location and site surroundings.   Projects that require crane operations and have little or no setbacks are required to use a tower crane. The City prefers electric type cranes to reduce noise and fumes.   Right-of-Way encroachments are used as a last resort in all cases. In the case where a ROW encroachment occurs, a permit must be obtained from the City Engineering Department. Refer to Section 5.56 for limitations on the use of the ROW.       5.5 RIGHT OF WAY LIMITATIONS a. The following activities may require the use of the ROW:  Temporary construction of guardrail, pedestrian walkways, scaffolds, protective canopies, etc..  Temporary storage of materials, merchandise, commodities, construction materials, etc..  Park or stage and operate construction equipment, crane, bulldozer, skid steer, etc..  Temporary placement of a field office, dumpster, loose material container, or construction fencing  Earth retention methods and associated removal P85 II. 11    b. The requests for the use of the ROW (i.e. encroachments) are reviewed by the Engineering Department. The follow factors are considered before granting any use of the ROW:  Location: Depending on location, there will be limitations on the use of the ROW. The core area in particular has on season restrictions. Refer to Section 5.5 (c).Section 5.6 (c).  Size: The encroachment must occupy as small a footprint as applicable and may not affect safe lane widths or bus routes. Additionally the encroachment may not interfere with City snow removal process. If lane closures are anticipated we recommend that the applicant complete the work before 10am to lessen the impact.  Safety: The encroachment must accommodate pedestrians. Conflict between pedestrians and construction traffic must be minimized. Additionally, all encroachments shall ensure sight distances of 35 feet from the intersection. There must be no overhead hazards (crane swing, etc...) and there must be adequate room for Emergency Response.  Schedule: Aspen has many re-occurring special events scheduled throughout the year. Some encroachments may be limited or not approved based on impacts to these events. Holidays and special events that affect ROW closures in the core area include, but may not be limited to: Food and Wine (mid June), USA Pro Cycling Challenge (mid August), Saturday Farmer’s Market (mid June thru mid October), Christmas Week and the July 4th Parade.  Aesthetics: Consideration should be given to the aesthetics, public information, and signage for adjacent businesses, site barricades, fencing, enclosed walkways etc. can be more than barren plywood walls. Whether its artwork, information about the project or for local businesses there is an opportunity to minimize the aesthetic impact. c. Limitations for Encroachment Zones: There are seasonal limitations for temporary encroachments (refer to Attachment G for zone designations). These limitations include the following: i. Red Zone: Five foot encroachment allowed on the mall during the on season. For areas abutting a street, a 15 foot encroachment will be allowed during the on season. For corner lots, only one side of the building will be permitted an encroachment during the on season. Sites will be limited to one on season encroachment. ii. Orange Zone: A fifteen foot encroachment will be allowed during the on season. For corner lots, only one side of the building will be permitted an encroachment during the on season. Sites will be limited to two on season encroachments. iii. Yellow Zone: A fifteen foot encroachment will be allowed during the on season. For corner lots, only one side of the building will be permitted an encroachment during the on season. Sites will be limited to three on season encroachments. P86 II. 12    iv. The City may allow for larger encroachments if the site can demonstrate the benefits of doing so. For sites requesting larger encroachments they must not only demonstrate the benefit to the City but also submit two construction schedules one with the larger encroachment request and one without. d. On Season Time Frame: On seasons are defined as June 1st thru Labor Day and November 15th thru March 31st. 5.6 CONSTRUCTION TRAILER, MATERIALS STORAGE, AND WASTE MANAGEMENT   As specified in Section 5.1, construction trailer, job materials storage, portable restrooms, waste management and recycling container locations shall be clearly designated on the project site plan. Loose job material storage is not allowed in ROW under any circumstance.   The City of Aspen Engineering Asset Management Department strongly recommends job trailer, waste management containers, and portable restrooms be stored on private property and not within City ROW. The City of Aspen requires recycling of construction materials. In instances where recycling containers cannot be accommodated onsite, the City Engineering Department will consider locating recycling containers within public ROW where feasible. The encroachment permit fee will be waived if it pertains to recycling containers. If at any time such a container is not being used for recycling operations, the property owner will be responsible to pay at least three months calculated land lease fee.   The City of Aspen requires recycling of materials, both conventional and construction related, according to this document and City of Aspen Municipal Code Title 12. A waste management plan must be submitted to the City prior to beginning demolition or construction. Recycling requirements included in this section do not supersede project specific Efficient Building CodeProgram (EBP) requirements. Refer to Appendix I for the waste management plan requirements.   Project site conventional recycling of co-mingled materials (plastics #1-#7, tin, aluminum, and glass), and cardboard must have an assigned space/area and be separated on-site during the project. Sites must comply with Colorado and Aspen landfill bans, i.e. no disposal of electronic waste, fluorescent light bulbs, hazardous waste or yard waste. These materials may not be disposed of in the trash.   During the demolition phase of a project, deconstruction related activities are required (recycling and/or salvaging of material such as wood products, drywall, flooring, etc.). Concrete and scrap metals must be sorted and kept separate on-site and must have an assigned space/area.   P87 II. 13    Field inspections will occur throughout the permit process. If sorting of materials is not occurring onsite, other means of verification may be provided to City of Aspen as deemed appropriate. Acceptable verifications include (but are not limited to) a receipt from the recycling facility, an invoice from the company receiving the materials for recycling/salvaging or other proof the materials are being repurposed or recycled.     Per municipal code (12.08.010), any dumpster or other trash receptacle that is used for food refuse must be constructed in such a manner as to render it bear proof. All containers shall be adequately covered at all times until transferred to the landfill. The City of Aspen municipal code states it shall be unlawful to permit accumulated debris, litter, or trash on any construction site to blow or scatter onto adjoining properties (12.04.020).   An onsite hazardous material spill cleanup kit is required, as specified by the City Engineer, that contains, at a minimum, a 25 pound bag of Floor-Dri (or equal), absorbent pads, and other spill kit materials.   6.0 TRAFFIC CONTROL   6.1 GENERAL   All traffic control operations shall be managed by the designated certified traffic control supervisor.   6.2 HAUL ROUTES   The City of Aspen has designated specific project haul roads throughout the City (Appendix C). The project must follow the designated routes and specify any additional routes necessary to complete hauling operations. Project haul routes shall be oriented to minimize traffic congestion and maximize pedestrian safety.     6.3 ONSITE VEHICLE LIMITATIONS   All construction related vehicle activities shall be defined. Maximum vehicle weights and sizes shall be specified.   6.4 DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS   Traffic control required for deliveries must be fully coordinated with the City of Aspen Engineering Department. Roads will not be closed under any circumstances, unless granted permission from the City of Aspen Engineering Department.   P88 II. 14    The maximum number of delivery vehicles onsite must be specified, along with the hours the deliveries will occur, and any exceptions to the delivery schedule.   Delivery and Heavy Duty Vehicles must have a visible sign on the vehicle that specifies the project contractors name and phone number.   Delivery vehicles and all other onsite vehicles are not allowed to idle for more than five (5) minutes, with the exception of generators or PTO type operations. The general contractor must include an idling policy in the Plan that meets City requirements.   6.5 TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN   A preliminary Traffic Control Plan (TCP) shall be submitted as part of the Construction Management Plan if necessary to be determined by City Engineer. The TCP shall be completed by a State Certified Traffic Control Supervisor and must conform to the most current edition of the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways (MUTCD). The TCP shall contain all information specified in Section 6C.01 of the MUTCD.   A School Traffic Control Plan should be submitted in addition to the TCP in school areas according to Chapter 7A of the MUTCD. If the project is not located in a school area, but abuts a school bus stop or school walk route, extra traffic control personnel and devices shall be implemented to ensure school pedestrian safety.         7.0 PEDISTRIAN PROTECTION   7.1 GENERAL   The Plan shall comply with pedestrian safety per City code 21.04.060, MUTCD Chapter 6D, the Americans with Disability Act, and IBC Chapter 33. 7.2 LIMITATIONS Sidewalk closures in the core will not be permitted. Pedestrians must be accommodated without having to cross the street. Short duration closures in the core may be considered during the off season. P89 II. 15        8.0 SEDIMENT AND EROSION CONTROL   8.1 REQUIREMENTS   A Stormw Water Management PlanPollution Prevention Plan shall be completed as outlined in Appendix H.along with the CMP, according to Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division General Permit Part IB.   The main objective of the storm water management plan shall be to identify Best Management Practices, which will minimize erosion and sediment transport.   In addition to the Colorado Discharge Service Permit (the program) requirements, the following apply: 1. Stock piles must be protected with erosion control devices. 2. Mud tracking ramps (rock construction entrances) are required and implemented per the most current version of the Colorado Department of Transportation M&S construction standards. 3. Onsite concrete and tire washout stations are required. Location and operation procedures shall be described in Plan. 4. City inlets, gutters, swales and irrigation ditches shall be protected with erosion control devices and such projection maintained for the duration of the project. 5. A description of procedures used to protect and maintain in good and effective operating condition the erosion/sediment control measures until final stabilization is required.   Onsite sediment and erosion control operations shall be managed by a state certified erosion control supervisor. Please visit: http://www.aspenpitkin.com/Portals/0/docs/New%20EPSC%20Requirments%202012.p df for more details related to the Stormwater Management Plan requirements.   8.2 SMUGGLER MOUNTAIN RESTRICTIONS   All projects located within the Smuggler Mountain Superfund Zone (Appendix E) are required to meet additional standards for erosion control measures and are required to file an additional soil removal permit. These requirements shall be instituted on all projects disturbing (excavating or exposing) more than one cubic yard of soil. All projects located in the superfund site will also be required to handle disturbed and excavated soils with an additional level of care.   1. A Smuggler Mountain Superfund Site Soil Removal Permit must be completed prior to any soil disturbance in this area. (Appendix P90 II. 16    E) 2. All contaminated soils must be disposed of at a duly licensed and authorized facility, usually the Pitkin County Landfill, and the receiving location must be made aware of the contaminated nature of the soils. 3. Soils must be contained and covered at all times unless actively being worked. Working will be defined as moving, compacting, backfilling, exposing, or grading the soils at least once in a sixty minute period. If any stockpile of soil is to be left for more than sixty minutes it must be contained and covered. 4. Containment and Covering is required. This can be accomplished through the use of a non-permeable tarp placed below the stockpile and the same type of material shall be used to cover the stockpile.   5. After completion of the project an uncontaminated soil cap will be required. This cap shall consist of twelve inches of clean fill or gravel. This can also be accomplished by paving the area with asphalt or concrete. 6. In order to obtain a “clean letter” from the City of Aspen, which, will be required prior to the release of the Certificate of Occupancy, all of the above conditions must be met.     9.0 FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL   9.1 FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL PLAN   All projects that result in fugitive dust emissions must submit a fugitive dust control plan and file an application for a construction permit with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.   The approval of a Dust Prevention and Control Plan does not relieve the owner or contractors of the responsibility to implement whatever additional measures may be required by the City Engineer to properly prevent and control dust.         P91 II. 17    9.2 REQUIREMENTS   The plan shall demonstrate that the discharge of dust from the construction site will not occur, or can be controlled to an acceptable level depending on the particular site conditions and circumstances.   1. The plan shall address site conditions during construction operations, after normal working hours, and during various phases of construction. 2. The plan shall include the name and the 24 hour phone number of a responsible party. 3. If the importing or exporting of dirt is necessary, the plan shall also include the procedures necessary to keep the public streets and private properties along the haul route free of dirt, dust, and other debris. 4. When an entire project is to be graded and the subsequent construction on the site is to be completed in phases, the portion of the site not under construction shall be treated with dust preventive substance or plant materials and an irrigation system. 5. All phased projects shall submit a plan demonstrating that dust will not be generated from future phase areas.   For all construction within the site, the contractor shall have a water truck available for dust control. Wetting shall be completed once three times a day under dry conditions or as directed by the City Construction Mitigation Officer.   Vehicle speeds should not exceed 15 mph on construction access roads and construction site.     10.0 EMISSIONS   10.1 GENERAL   All vehicles and equipment used on site will be properly maintained such that the engines will function within manufacture’s standards or parameters.   City of Aspen   10.2 EMISSIONS FROM DIESEL POWERED ENGINES   Emissions from diesel engines operated within the City of Aspen shall be of a shade or density no darker than 40% opacity, except for starting motion no longer than 10 seconds or for stationary P92 II. 18    operation not exceeding 10 seconds.     11.0 NOISE SUPRESSION   11.1 GENERAL   The noise limit for construction is 80 decibels measured at the property line of the construction site. All construction equipment shall be adequately muffled and maintained to minimize project noise. The installation of noise barriers is the minimum technique to suppress noise, especially when jack hammering of concrete occurs.   11.2 NOISE SUPPRESSION PLAN   Each site must include information on noise blocking methods, techniques, and common equipment and activities that require noise suppression (Refer to Appendix D) to meet the decibel limits below:  All activity that generates noise in excess of 80 decibels at the property line requires a plan and is restricted to operating hours identified below. The plan will include information on noise blocking methods, techniques, and common equipment and activities that require noise suppression (Refer to Appendix D).Residential projects are limited to 65 decibels (dB) at the property line during the summer season and 80 dB at the property line all other times of the year.  Projects located on the Mall are limited to 65 dB at the property line during the summer and winter season and 80 dB at the property line all other times of the year.  Projects located in the Core are limited to 75 dB at the property line during the summer season and 80 dB at the property line all other times of the year.  All other projects will be limited to 80 dB at the property line. Allowances of an additional 10 dB from the limits above will be made for short durations. However under no circumstance can the decibel limit exceed 80 dB at the property line. Allowance for an excess noise exception from the above limits will be reviewed by the City Engineer. Criteria for the exemption include:  Where it is in the interest of public safety  Public infrastructure work within the Right of Way  Other activities within the Right of Way where there is no other reasonable alternative. P93 II. 19    Major impact projects that include earth retention or include lot line development, are required to have a sound engineer/consultant model the site plans and insert noise sources and specify noise mitigation measures to see how noise levels will be reduced. The models should show the anticipated noise levels at various locations surrounding the project and can take into account a variety of proposed mitigation measures.   11.3 CONTINUNED NOISE MONITORING   Major construction sites that require earth stabilization will be required to perform continued noise monitoring. Additionally sites that receive two correction notices or one red tag for noise violations will be required to provide continued noise monitoring. This monitoring must be recorded and be made available remotely through on line access to the City’s Construction Mitigation Officer. For those sites not required to provide continued noise monitoring but receive verified noise complaints, the City will install its own continued noise monitor. If the noise complaints are verified, the site will be required to install its own continued noise monitor, additionally the city will charge a rental fee for when City’s continued noise monitor was used for the site.  11.34 REQUIREMENTS FOR ACTIVITIES EXCEEDING 80 DECIBELS   1. Any work producing noise levels over 80 decibels is not permitted to commence until after 9:00 am and is not permitted on Saturdays. That includes but not limited to the use of compressors, generators, jackhammers, power equipment, nail guns, drilling machinery, earth moving equipment and similar loud construction activities. This does not restrict quiet work inside and outside that does not require a power source, including a battery, on Saturday.   2. Notify neighbors within two hundred fifty (300) feet of the project informing them of the kinds of equipment, expected noise levels and durations of loud work. Including the variation of noise levels during a typical construction days may be helpful. Such notification must be in writing and be done seven (7) days prior to the starting time of the project. Communication with neighbors can prevent complaints from arising, and resolve concerns before there is a problem. Provide a phone number where the foreman can be reached prior to the start of the job.           3. Operate equipment in accordance with manufacturer's specifications and with all standard manufacturers’ mufflers and noise-reducing P94 II. 20    equipment in use and in properly operating condition.   4. Post notices to inform workers, including sub-contractors, about the basic noise requirements, as well as specific noise restrictions, to the project. 5. Install noise barriers around all equipment/activities specified in Table 1 of Appendix D. Noise barriers not only significantly reduce construction noise, but they also provide an extra benefit of “hiding” the noise producing sources, thus increasing a neighbor’s tolerance. 6. Move portable loud equipment including generators, compressors, and cement mixers to different sides of the property to reduce impacts on individual neighbors.   7. The use of radios on the site before 8:00 am is not allowed.allowed.   11.. 45 SPECIFIC RESTRICTIONS RELATED TO MANUFACTURING ON SITE   Considering that some structures will require an increase in the level of manufacturing of certain materials in order to complete the desired finish of the structure, additional restrictions will be placed on those activities. The primary concern is that extending the duration, for which neighbors are exposed to high levels of noise, could cause specific unwanted responses. In order to reduce those risk factors to neighboring properties all manufacturing efforts must be limited on site and when possible shall be conducted off site, or in such a manner as to not contribute to any long term noise impacts off of the property. Manufacturing activities that are in excess of 80 decibels must be accompanied by an Extended Impact Permit, this will require that the activity is enclosed completely and limited to 90 days in duration. Air exchange / venting systems shall be installed or otherwise supplied within the enclosure to provide a clean air source for laborers. The enclosure must be constructed in a manner which prevents noise and dust from escaping. This may be accomplished with the use of plastic sheeting to contain dust and a more dense and rigid material (ply wood, foam insulation boards) erected to contain sound. Noise levels will be measured at the property line, while facing the source of the sound, and shall not exceed 65 decibels during working operations. Activities will be considered manufacturing if alterations to a material that is readily available on the market are made in order for the material to meet the needs of the end user. An example of this would be masonry wall construction. If the all of the stone was delivered as a rough cut product to the site, and each of the stones were to be cut square and fit into place. In this example the stone cutting is considered the manufacturing portion of the masonry wall, and should be conducted off site. This would allow the stones to be cut square and to the appropriate dimensions and additional work to fit the stones would be permitted on site.   All work which requires a limited amount of additional manufacturing to achieve the P95 II. 21      desired finish (including fitting) shall be conducted between 9am and 5pm, and shall have an approved noise suppression plan on site, relating to the activity.         12.0 ENFORCEMENT   12.1 CITY CONSTRUCTION MITIGATION OFFICER A City Construction Mitigation Officer shall be assigned to each construction project. The City Construction Mitigation Officer will complete random site visits to determine if the project is following approved Plan and City requirements. The officer is not intended to take the place of a City of Aspen building inspector.   12.2 CORRECTIVE ACTION   The City of Aspen will enforce construction mitigation corrections as follows:   1. The first corrective action is a verbal warning and explanation of the violation with a timeframe for completion. 2. The second corrective action is a written warning or correction notice with timeframe for compliance. 3. Third and final notice is a “Stop Work Order” (red tag). If a stop work order is issued, no more work can be completed until the violation is corrected. 4. The City may forgo steps one and two as outlined above and go directly to the “Stop Work Order” and or a summons and compliant may be issued for violations under the following circumstances:  Work without a permit  Work that is endangering Public Safety  Work that is endangering Publicendangering Public Health including work that may affect water quality.  Work on holidays or Sundays (unless the site received an exemption to work during these times)   The owner and general contractor are responsible for assuring compliance and both will be charged by summons and complaint in municipal court when necessary. This applies even if a sub contractorsub-contractor violates the construction mitigation rules, Failure to correct violations and/or any threat to public safety could subject the owner, contractor or both to a maximum penalty of up to a year in jail and/or a fine of up to $2,650 for each violation. Each day a violation continues is a separate offense fine of $1000 a day as determined by the municipal court. P96 II. 22        12.3 INSPECTION REPORTS   The Construction Mitigation Officer will complete construction inspection reports. All reports are public and will be kept in the City Engineering Asset Management Department.   13.0 CONSTRUCTION MITIGATION COMMITTEE   Projects seeking exemptions may seek an exemption from projectfrom project  durations,  number, number of encroachments and  noise. These exemptions will be reviewed by the Construction Mitigation Committee. The committee consists of representatives from the Engineering, Parking and Building departments. If an exemption is granted then the project will be subject to the exemption fees as outlined in Title 2. Considerations for exemptions include impact of exemption on adjacent properties, duration of exemption and season that exemption is being requested.           14.0 APPEAL PROCESS   Projects may appeal the decision of the Construction Mitigation Committee and / or the City Engineer.  All appeal will be forwarded to the City Manager or their designee. If the appeal is approved and results  in an exemption, then the project will be subject to the exemption fees as outlined in Title 2.                                           P97 II.

Revised 11/17/09 APPENDIX D Noise Blocking Methods Contractors shall require all subcontractors and vendors to use:  “Residential” grade combustion engine exhaust silencers  Electrical vs. pneumatic hand power tools  Hydraulic vs. air powered rock drills  “Silenced” pile drivers vs. Diesel pile drivers Temporary Noise Barrier Materials: Temporary barriers shall be constructed of 3/4-inch Medium Density Overlay (MDO) plywood sheeting, or other material of equivalent utility and appearance having a surface weight of 2 pounds per square foot or greater. The temporary barriers shall be lined on one side with glass fiber, mineral wool, or other similar noise curtain type noise-absorbing material at least 2-inches. The materials used for temporary barriers shall be sufficient to last through the duration of the construction project, and shall be maintained in good repair. Prefabricated acoustic barriers are available from various vendors. An equivalent barrier design can be submitted in lieu of the plywood barrier described above. Noise Control:  Replace worn, loose, or unbalanced machine parts that cause vibration.  Keep machine parts well lubricated to reduce friction.  Acoustical enclosures and barriers around generators  Sound absorbing material and vibration isolation systems on hand tools  Shields, shrouds, or intake and exhaust mufflers.  Noise-deadening material to line hoppers, conveyor transfer points, storage bins, or chutes.  Noise barriers using materials consistent with the Temporary Noise Barrier Materials Section.  Noise curtains  Plywood with concrete blankets at the height of the equipment and that it surrounds the activity such that it directs noise up more than out from the property.  Portable three sided enclosures made out of plywood to move with the activity such as jack hammering.  Internal combustion engines are to be fitted with a suitable muffler in good repair.  Noisy equipment such as cement mixers should be placed on the site to maximize the distance from neighboring houses and/or rotate location so as to not impact just one neighbor. Noise levels drop quickly with distance from the source.  All equipment should be properly maintained, with special attention to mufflers and other noise control devices. P101 II.

P107 II. Stormwater Management During Construction The purpose of this chapter is to provide requirements and guidance for selecting and implementing Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will eliminate or reduce the discharge of pollutants from construction and other land-disturbing activities to local waters. The City of Aspen Engineering Department is the administrative authority for stormwater management and erosion prevention and sediment control on construction sites within the City’s jurisdiction. By policy, Aspen’s requirements for stormwater management during construction are consistent with those of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s (CDPHE) Construction General Permit. The CDPHE Construction General Permit requires a stormwater management plan (SWMP) for development disturbing greater than one acre of land. However, Aspen requires a Construction SWMP detailing pollution prevention and erosion prevention and sediment control measures to be installed for projects that exceed 1000 square feet of soil disturbance, not just those that disturb greater than one acre. Wherever the City of Aspen and the CDHPE Construction General Permit requirements are in conflict, the more restrictive requirements should be applied. The regulations and guidelines stated in this chapter incorporate information from a variety of sources including:  The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),  State of Colorado/Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE),  Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD), and  Northwest Colorado Council of Governments (NWCCOG). It is important to understand that these regulations are subject to change and/or alterations. For the most up to date copy please contact the City of Aspen Engineering Department. 1.1 PURPOSE Some construction activities and materials have the potential to pollute our streams, rivers, and lakes if transported during storms or snowmelt. When construction disturbs land, the soil is more easily eroded during rainfall, snowmelt, and wind events. Eroded soil, referred to as sediment, is the greatest pollutant to rivers in Colorado and Aspen. Sediment endangers water resources by reducing water quality and causing the siltation of aquatic habitat for fish and other desirable species. Other pollutants, such as petroleum products, metals, and nutrients, easily attach to soil making sediment even more toxic. Eroded soil also necessitates the cleaning and/or repair of sewers and ditches and the dredging of water bodies. Therefore clearing, grading, and vehicle tracking during construction creates the need for erosion prevention and sediment control on construction sites. Pollutants other than sediment, such as concrete, solvents, oil, grease and metals, also cause degradation of water quality in receiving streams, and therefore must also be prevented or reduced through construction site stormwater management practices. The City of Aspen requires compliance with the criteria in this chapter in order to eliminate or reduce the discharge of pollutants in stormwater runoff, and prohibits the discharge of pollutants from construction sites to the City’s stormwater system. These criteria should be followed from start of earth disturbance until final landscaping and stormwater quality measures are effectively in place and accepted by the City. The goal of these P108 II. requirements is to decrease the amount of pollutants entering the stormwater system from construction and other land disturbing activities. The following erosion prevention, sediment control, and pollution prevention measures are designed to safeguard persons, protect property, minimize water quality and other environmental impacts, and promote the public welfare by guiding, regulating, and assisting the design, construction, use, and maintenance of any development or activity which disturbs or breaks the topsoil or results in the movement of earth on land greater than 1000 square feet in the City of Aspen, Colorado. 1.11 General Requirements A Construction Stormwater Management Plan (Construction SWMP) must be developed before a project begins that identifies pollution prevention measures and erosion prevention and sediment control (EPSC) measures that are appropriate for the actual site conditions and construction plans for each site – generic plans will not be approved. The Construction SWMP shall contain a narrative report as well as site plan maps for each phase of the project. The appropriate schedule of implementation shall be identified as well as detailed plans shown on plan sheets with appropriate contours for each phase of the project that will minimize pollution, erosion, and sediment transport. The Construction SWMP shall be submitted to the City of Aspen as part of the Construction Mitigation Plan (CMP) and along with the grading and drainage plans in order to obtain a building or landscape and grading permit. Plans for grading and erosion control should be considered in the early stages of site planning and drainage design. The Construction SWMP may have to be modified at the time a final site development plan is prepared in order to better address the site conditions as the plan changes. This modified plan, the final Construction SWMP, must be approved by the City of Aspen before ground-breaking activities can occur. EPSC measures must be designed according to size, slope, and soil type of disturbed drainage areas in order to prevent erosion and to capture sediment. Potential sources of pollution that might affect quality of stormwater discharges from the site, and practices that will be implemented to prevent that pollution, must be identified and described as part of the Construction SWMP. In addition, sites discharging directly to waters of the state or the City’s stormwater system might be required to meet stricter requirements as determined by the City Engineer or City Stormwater Manager. Implementation of the Construction SWMP (i.e., installation of measures) begins when construction begins, before the initial clearing, grubbing, and grading operations, since these activities can usually increase erosion potential on the site. Implementation and maintenance of pollution prevention measures and EPSC measures are the responsibility of the permit holder and the project/property owner. Because site conditions will affect the suitability and effectiveness of pollution prevention and EPSC measures, the SWMP is a dynamic document that should be referred to frequently, amended and updated as necessary, and kept on site available for review by City of Aspen staff upon request . The City reserves the right to require the permit holder and/or property owner to develop and implement additional measures to prevent and control pollution as needed. P109 II. Pollution Prevention Pollution prevention for construction within the City of Aspen requires compliance with the following criteria: 1. Develop Construction SWMP - The Construction SWMP must identify potential sources of pollution that may reasonably be expected to affect the quality of stormwater discharging from the site. 2. Practice Good Housekeeping - The Construction SWMP must describe standard operating procedures and practices that will be implemented to prevent the release of pollutants to the stormwater system from construction activities. a. Perform activities in a manner to keep potential pollutants from coming into contact with stormwater. b. Prevent spills and leaks (i.e. hydraulic fluid from leaky vehicles or equipment) c. Use phasing principals to limit areas of disturbance. 3. Contain Materials and Waste – Areas used for staging of construction activities and the storage of soil, chemicals, petroleum-based products and waste materials, including solid and liquid waste, shall be designed to prevent discharge of pollutants in the runoff from the construction site. a. Store construction, building, and waste materials in designated areas, protected from rainfall and contact with stormwater run-on and runoff. b. Dispose of all construction waste in designated areas (e.g. concrete may only be disposed of in a designated concrete wash-out area), and keep stormwater from flowing onto or off of these areas. c. Properly clean and dispose of spilled materials. 4. Dewatering – If it is determined that site dewatering will be required, the permit holder / and or property owner must obtain a Construction Dewatering Permit for the CDPHE division of water resources. Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control Erosion prevention and sediment control for construction within the City of Aspen requires compliance with the following criteria: 1. Develop Construction SWMP – The Construction SWMP plan must demonstrate how stormwater, erosion, and sediment will be handled throughout construction. 2. Control Site Perimeter – Construction activities and their impacts must be controlled within the limits of the site. a. Delineate the site perimeter on the plans and in the field to prevent disturbing areas outside of the project limits. b. Divert upstream run-on safely around or through the construction project. Diversions must not cause downstream property damage and cannot be diverted into another watershed. c. Construction vehicles and equipment may enter and exit the site at only one designated access point. This exit must be stabilized with gravel or other appropriate material throughout the duration of the project. 3. Minimize Disturbed Areas – Construction activities must be scheduled in correct sequences to minimize the total amount of exposed soil at any given time. a. Only clear land which will be actively under construction in the near term (e.g. within the next 1-2 months). b. Minimize new land disturbance during the spring runoff/snow melt season. P110 II. c. Avoid clearing or disturbing sensitive areas, such as steep slopes and natural waterways, where site improvements will not be constructed or are not necessary. 4. Stabilize Disturbed Areas – Disturbed areas must be permanently or temporarily stabilized as soon as possible, but no later than 14 days after last worked, whenever active construction is not occurring on that portion of the site. Disturbed areas must be stabilized by November 15th of each year to minimize erosion and sediment transport that occurs during spring snow melt. 5. Protect Slopes and Channels – Concentrated stormwater flows shall be avoided or the conveyance system shall be protected sufficiently to prevent significant erosion. a. Safely convey runoff from the top of the slope and stabilize disturbed slopes as quickly as possible. b. Avoid disturbing natural channels. c. Ensure the runoff velocity caused by project does not erode channel bottoms. 6. Install and Maintain EPSC Measures – All sites must minimize pollution potential by installing and maintaining erosion prevention and sediment control measures throughout the duration of any project. a. Erosion prevention measures are those BMPs used to limit erosion of soil from disturbed areas on the site. Erosion prevention measures are required for all disturbed areas. Examples include: Contour Tracking, Rolled Erosion Control Products, Hydro Mulching and similar activities. b. Sediment control measures are those BMPs the limit the transport of sediment off-site or downstream of disturbed areas. Sediment control measures are required for all disturbed areas. The most commonly used sediment containment is silt fencing. c. Use non-structural and structural best management practices (BMPs) described in this chapter. d. All sites must be inspected regularly by a representative from the project to document the condition and effectiveness of BMPs. 7. Retain Sediment - Sediment control measures are required at all points where stormwater leaves the site as concentrated flow and at any other points where sediment has the potential to leave the site. Sediment-laden runoff will be considered a violation of City of Aspen code and can receive fines up to $1000 per day that the site is in violation. Best Management Practices Best Management Practices (BMPs) are activities or controls that are implemented to reduce the potential of discharging pollutants to the stormwater system and include pollution prevention measures and EPSC measures. P111 II. 2.1 Permit and Construction Process Step 1 – Develop Construction SWMP The owner or the contractor should secure the services of a professional engineer knowledgeable in construction management practices and the City of Aspen requirements for stormwater management during construction to develop the Construction SWMP. The SWMP must be submitted as a portion of the CMP along with the building permit application. The Construction SWMP will be reviewed by the City and its comments will need to be addressed before a building permit will be issued. Projects that disturb greater than one acre of land will also need to apply for a Construction General Permit with the CDPHE. This application also requires the submittal of a SWMP. The Construction SWMP developed for the purposes of construction within the City of Aspen should be adequate to submit with the Construction General Permit Application. The Construction SWMP shall consist of a written narrative report and a site plan map describing the erosion prevention and sediment control measures to be implemented at the site. Narrative Report The narrative report must contain, or refer to, the drainage report for the site and should contain, at the minimum, the following: 1. Contact Information – The names, addresses, email addresses and phone numbers of the project/property owner, the applicant or permit holder, the professional engineer preparing the Construction SWMP, and the site person that will be responsible for implementation of the Construction SWMP. 2. Project Description - A brief description of the nature and purpose of the land disturbing activity, the total area of the site, the area of disturbance involved, and project location including township, range, section, and quarter-section, or the latitude and longitude, of the approximate center of the project. 3.

An alternative of inspecting every 7 calendar days regardless of precipitation events or forecasts may also be used. Inspection and maintenance reports should be completed and kept on site following each inspection and made available to City of Aspen staff upon request. Any loss of sediment from the site should be noted and kept in file with these reports, including date and estimated amount of sediment loss and what activities were performed to ensure that sediment loss would not occur again. 15. Calculations - Any calculations made for the design of such items as sediment basins, diversions, or waterways; and calculations for runoff and stormwater detention basin design (if applicable). 16. Other information or data as may be reasonably required by the City of Aspen. 17. The following note - "This Construction Stormwater Management Plan has been placed in the City of Aspen file for this project, and appears to fulfill the City of Aspen criteria for the management of construction activities and associated erosion and sedimentation controls. I understand that additional control measures may be needed if unforeseen pollutant transport problems are determined by City of Aspen to occur during this project or if the submitted plan does not function as intended.

Signature block for owner/developer acknowledging the review and acceptance of responsibility, a signed and stamped statement by the Professional Engineer acknowledging responsibility for the preparation of the SWMP, and a signature of the site representative that will be responsible for implementation of the SWMP in the field. Should the field representative change, this block should be updated with a signature of the current site representative that will be responsible for implementation of the SWMP. P114 II. Step 2 – Approval of Construction SWMP The Construction SWMP must be approved prior to issuance of a Building Permit by the City. The final SWMP must be consistent with a Drainage Report accepted by the City of Aspen Engineering Department. However, approval of the SWMP does not imply acceptance or approval of Drainage Plans, Utility Plans, Street or Road Plans, Design of Retaining Walls or any other aspect of site development. 2.2.1 Exemptions and Variances These are generally processed according to the applicable municipal regulations and reviewed on a case-by-case basis. 1. Exemptions from the erosion control planning process may be considered for any of the following by the local jurisdiction if their MS4 permit so allows; however, exempting the owner from the preparation and submittal of a SWMP and/or from applying for a grading permit does not exempt the owner from controlling erosion and sediment movement off the construction site: a. Agricultural use of land. b. Grading or an excavation below finished grade for basements, footings, retaining walls, or other structures on single family lots not a part of a larger development or redevelopment project and disturbing a total land surface of less than one (1) acre in size unless required otherwise by local jurisdiction. c. A sidewalk or driveway authorized by a valid permit. d. Land-disturbing activities involving less than a total of one (1) acre of disturbed area. Individual lots involving less than one (1) acre of disturbed area in a larger land use change project shall not be considered separate development projects, but rather as a part of the subdivision development as a whole and are not eligible for an exemption. It will be the responsibility of the homeowner or homebuilder to conform to all requirements of the locally- approved SWMP for the development or redevelopment. As part of any Building Permit within a larger development for which an individual erosion control plan is not required, it is recommended the following statement be included: "We have reviewed the Construction Storm Water Management Plan for (subdivision name) and agree to conform to all requirements contained therein and all erosion control requirements of the (insert name of municipality) and the State of Colorado. We further agree to construct and maintain all erosion and sediment control measures required on the individual lot(s) subject to this Building Permit and/or in accordance with the provisions of the Construction Best Management Practices chapter of the Manual published by the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District." e. Underground utility construction including the installation, maintenance and repair of all utilities under hard-surfaced roads, streets or sidewalks provided such land-disturbing activity is confined to the area which is hard-surfaced and provided that runoff and erosion from soil stockpiles are confined and will not enter the drainage system. f. Gravel, sand, dirt or topsoil removal as authorized pursuant to approval of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board, provided said approval includes a construction activities management, erosion and sediment control plan that meets the minimums specified. g. Projects having a period of exposure (from time of land disturbance until permanent erosion control measures are installed) of less than 14 days. h. Where the owner certifies in writing to the City of Aspen and the City of Aspen agrees in writing that the planned work and the final structures or topographical changes will not result in, or contribute to, soil erosion or sediment discharges to any waterway or irrigation ditch and will not interfere with any existing drainage course or waterway in such a manner as to cause damage to any adjacent property, or result in the deposition of debris or sediment on any public right-of-way, will not present any hazard to any persons or property, and will have no detrimental influence upon the public welfare, or upon other properties in the watershed. P115 II. 2. Variances – The City of Aspen may consider waiving or modifying any of the criteria which are deemed inappropriate or too restrictive for site conditions by granting a variance, provided such variance does not violate the laws of the State of Colorado or the Federal government. Variances may be granted at the time of plan submission or request for plan revision. Variances must be requested in accordance with the subdivision regulations and must define: a. The criteria from which the applicant seeks a variance. b. The justification for not complying with the criteria. c. Alternate criteria or standard measures to be used in lieu of these criteria. The criteria and practices specified within this section of the Manual relate to the application of specific erosion and sediment control practices. Other practices or modifications to specified practices may be used if approved by the municipality prior to installation. Such practices must be thoroughly described and detailed to the satisfaction of the local municipality reviewing and approving the erosion control plan. To expedite the review and decisions on variance requests, it is suggested that a variance request be included with, or submitted prior to, the initial SWMP submittal. Step 3 – Project Construction – Installation, Maintenance, and Inspections During the construction phase, the following sequence is recommended for the implementation of the project and the SWMP: 1. During preparation of the Construction SWMP, the contractor designated a manager for the implementation of the SWMP. This person will be responsible for implementing all permit conditions and will communicate with City inspectors and inspectors from other agencies. 2. Install all BMPs shown on the SWMP that need to be installed in advance of proceeding with construction, such as construction fencing and limits of disturbance, tree and other natural area protections, construction exits, silt fences, inlet protection, etc. 3. Identify construction equipment and materials storage and maintenance areas and install BMPs to prevent pollutant migration from them. 4. Notify the City that the site is ready for initial inspection. 5. Install any additional BMPs that are called for in the SWMP before grading begins. a. Strip off and stockpile topsoil for reuse. Insure that soil stockpile is not located in a drainage path, downhill of a significant drainage area, is protected from erosion and dust migration, and that a sediment control measure is located downstream. b. Mulch areas that will remain undisturbed for more than two weeks during the April through September rainstorm season (e.g., stockpiles and overlot graded areas that will remain dormant for extended period of time), or for more than a month during the October through March period. c. Insure that BMPs that need to be installed at different times during the project are installed when called for in the SWMP or by the City’s inspector and are in full operation before construction activities begin in areas served by them. P116 II. d. Inspections by site Supervisor / Professional Engineer e. Inspections by City will occur regularly to inspect for general compliance with the approved plan. f. Maintenance by the permit holder / and or property owner is required for all BMP’s regardless of the stage of construction. g. Maintenance time frame from City h. Enforcement from City will occur at any time when a permit holder / and or property owner is in violation of the SWWP. Enforcement will escalate from verbal notices of corrective actions to stop work orders based on the number of violations or the severity of any one single violation. Step 4 – Project Completion – Stabilization, Re-vegetation, and CO Re-vegetate the site as called for in the SWMP. 1. After all work has been completed in an area a. including stabilization and re-vegetation, b. clean out and restore any post construction BMPs that may have been used for construction sediment controls. After all work has been completed on site, prepare the site for a CO inspection by the City and arrange for this inspection by calling (970)920-5448. Correct all deficiencies and call for follow- up inspection. The owner or contractor needs to arrange for inspection by the local jurisdiction when the vegetation has reached acceptable level of coverage and maturity. This could take months. In the meantime, the owner or contractor need to inspect the site on a regular basis to determine if there are deficiencies or damage that need to be addressed. The owner is responsible for the performance of all erosion and sedimentation control installations until such time the site’s re- vegetation is deemed acceptable and a written notice is provided to the owner by the local jurisdiction. Once re-vegetation has been accepted, request release of any surety, letters of credit or other financial guarantees the local jurisdiction may have required the permit holder provide at the time the permit is issued. A closure of the construction activities permit from the State should also be pursued at this time. P117 II.
