An Introduction to Environmental Technical Requirements for Professional Engineers (civil engineering)

Identify, assist, or provide, as applicable, all permits, approvals and fees required for the design, construction and operation of the proposed project from Federal, state and local regulatory authorities or overseas equivalent. Licensure in the state where the project is located may be required to obtain permits and approvals. Coordinate with the Installation Environmental (EV) staff or the Environmental Planning Function (EPF) to obtain the project NEPA documentation, as applicable, for project specific requirements. For areas outside of the United States and its territories and possessions with host nation agreements, follow design approval procedure as directed in project scope and by the Government Project Manager. For areas outside of the United States and its territories and possessions without Host nation agreements, the Government will review and approve environmental plans. Identify all regulatory notification requirements in accordance with Federal, state, and local regulations. Where the Government needs to provide public notification, coordinate with the Government Project Manager and the Installation EV staff. Require the Contractor to provide copies of all regulatory notifications to the Government Project Manager and the Installation EV staff. Typically, regulatory notifications are provided for the following (this listing is not all inclusive): demolition, renovation, national pollutant discharge elimination system defined site work, or remediation of hazardous materials (such as asbestos, hazardous waste, and lead-based paint).
