4873-4401-5244 v1 o A publicly visible sign shall be posted with the telephone number and person to contact at the lead agency regarding dust complaints. This person shall respond and take corrective action within 48 hours. The Air District‘s phone number shall also be visible to help ensure compliance with applicable regulations. •Additional Construction Measures for Construction Activities With Emissions Above BAAQMD Thresholds: o All exposed surfaces shall be watered at a frequency adequate to maintain minimum soil moisture of 12 percent. Moisture content can be verified by lab samples or moisture probe. o All excavation, grading, and/or demolition activities shall be suspended when average wind speeds exceed 20 mph. o Wind breaks (e.g., trees, fences) shall be installed on the windward side(s) of actively disturbed areas of construction. Wind breaks should have at maximum 50 percent air porosity. o Vegetative ground cover (e.g., fast-germinating native grass seed) shall be planted in disturbed areas as soon as possible and watered appropriately until vegetation is established. o The simultaneous occurrence of excavation, grading, and ground-disturbing construction activities on the same area at any one time shall be limited. Activities shall be phased to reduce the amount of disturbed surfaces at any one time. o All trucks and equipment, including their tires, shall be washed off prior to leaving the site. o Site accesses to a distance of 100 feet from the paved road shall be treated with a 6- to 12-inch compacted layer of wood chips, mulch, or gravel. o Sandbags or other erosion control measures shall be installed to prevent silt runoff to public roadways from sites with a slope greater than one percent. o The idling time of diesel-powered construction equipment shall be limited to two minutes. o The project shall develop a plan demonstrating that the off-road equipment (more than 50 horsepower) to be used in the construction project (i.e., owned, leased, and subcontractor vehicles) would achieve a project-wide fleet-average 20 percent NOx reduction and 45 percent particulate matter reduction compared to the most recent ARB fleet average. Acceptable options for reducing emissions include the use of late- model engines, low-emission diesel products, alternative fuels, engine retrofit technology, after-treatment products, add-on devices such as particulate filters, and/or other options as they become available. o Use low- volatile organic compounds (VOC) (i.e., ROG) coatings beyond the local requirements (i.e., Regulation 8, Rule 3: Architectural Coatings). o All construction equipment, diesel trucks, and generators shall be equipped with Best Available Control Technology for emission reductions of NOx and PM. o All contractors shall use equipment that meets ARB’s most recent certification standard for off-road heavy-duty diesel engines. •Project-Specific Measures: o For construction, off-road equipment shall be Tier 4 or shall achieve Tier 4 particulate matter emission levels through use of one or more of the following: Tier 2/Tier 3 ATTY/RESO.0111/PC RESO STANFORD BLOCK E - EXHIBIT A & B REV: 11-30-23 VR Page 15 of 20
