|Summary of ECOPAC Instructions: |
|The Project Designer (in consultation with the LA/Environmental Project Manager) completes the left side of the ECOPAC form (pages 1 through 11 only) before PS&E to highlight the environmental issues and |
|permits/approvals obtained for the project. The Project Designer and LA/Environmental Project Manager sign the ECOPAC form, and at this time all applicable environmental permits are then transferred to the|
|Construction Environmental Coordinator. A copy of the signed ECOPAC form must also be attached to the PS&E transmittal memo submitted to Main Office Construction. |
| |
|The Construction Environmental Coordinator reviews the ECOPAC form and permits with the Engineer-in-Charge prior to the construction. The EIC refers to the ECOPAC form throughout construction to ensure |
|compliance with environmental regulations. If a previously unidentified environmental issue is encountered during construction, the EIC fills out the applicable boxes on the left side of the ECOPAC form |
|and initials the applicable boxes. At the conclusion of the project (or for multi-year projects – at the end of each state fiscal year) the EIC completes the right side of the ECOPAC form (pages 1 through |
|11) and fully completes pages 12 through 14. If a Non-Compliance event occurred, the EIC contacts the Construction Environmental Coordinator for assistance in assigning a Non-Compliance Rank. The EIC |
|provides a copy of the ECOPAC form to the Construction Environmental Coordinator and retains a copy in the construction project file. The Construction Environmental Coordinator reviews the ECOPAC form for |
|completeness and reports the appropriate Non-compliance events as part of the annual State Agency Environmental Audit. |
| |
|Exact construction/repair locations have not been identified for this Project (IE. Where and When). As sites are identified, they will be screened for any environmental concerns, reviews or permits. A |
|separate ECOPAC will be developed for each site. [Only include page one of this document for PS&E] |
