Subject:U2579B second permit violaton
Attachments:RE: Permit Site 12; RE: Site 12
We need to report a permit violation on the WS Beltway (U-2579B). The contractor removed a temporary pipe crossing
without the appropriate BMPs in place. Immediately downstream of the pipe a small check was installed; however the
appropriate dikes and a pump around were not in place. This is the second instance this week of permit violations. The
earlier violation was reviewed by Dave Wanucha and John Thomas yesterday. I've included the email to Dave and John
documenting the first violation.
As done early this week, our Resident Engineer has shut down all work except for erosion control maintenance. The first
shutdown was lifted this morning following the site visit by the agencies. Yesterday, the contractor sent us an email
stating the DOT and the contractor would meet on-site prior to any work in permit areas. I've included a copy of that
email for your records. Today that meeting did not happen. Our inspector wasn't notified of the work in the permit site,
but instead arrived at the site immediately following the work, and promptly reported the violation. We will be
conducting training next week for the contractor. Please give us your recommendations on how to proceed. I can meet
someone on site early Monday morning, Tuesday at 8, or Tuesday afternoon if needed.

Subject: Project shutdown
Jose,
It is unfortunate, however I am forced to shut the entire project down due to permit violations. This effective
immediately. This is the same reason I shut the job down two days ago. The crew excavated in a live channel without
the proper BMPs being used. The project will be stopped through this weekend until NCDENR can review the site and
give their recommendations. The head wall pour on Y1 can finish today since it has begun however all other operations
including structures shall cease immediately. You may continue to perform maintenance on erosion control.
We need to have a serious conversation about this continuing issue.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
