Sensitive Water

Sensitive or Impaired (TMDL) Waters

Using the KPDES Permit KYR10 may be in question. This needs to be addressed to DEA early in the project development. DEA will make contact with the Division of Water about these projects.

We have been successful by adding the following to the CAP and as a special note in the contract documents: The storm water discharge from this project drains into a

(example: stream and a lake) that are sensitive waters.  The contractor will be expected to establish, inspect and maintain effective erosion and sediment controls in strict conformance with the KPDES permit requirements, especially Part IV B (1) of the permit, and sections 212 and 213 of the standard specifications with emphasis on use of temporary mulch during construction.

A graphic showing the proximity of the project to the sensitive or TMDL water should be included in the contract documents.
