7. AGENCY AND PPSI CONTACTS

7.1 Relationship with Agency Representatives, PPSI, and Construction Contractors

Exhibit 1 (repeated in Section 6) shows communication pathways between permitting agencies, the public, Aspen, the Lead Agencies, and PPSI. The Aspen team, including program management and field monitors, shall establish relationships for communication based on the following communication protocols:

PPSI and Construction Contractors

Aspen's Program Management Team will be the primary contact for PPSI management and agency inquiries.

The Lead Environmental Monitor (LEM) will not directly contact PPSI management or agencies without consulting Aspen's Program Management Team.

Environmental monitors will not directly contact PPSI management or agencies without prior instructions from the Lead Environmental Monitor (LEM) or Aspen's Program Management Team.

The LEM and Environmental Monitors (EMs) will not directly contact the contractors or subcontractors. Contact will be made through PPSI, unless there is an emergency situation.

Correspondence for the LEM and EMs will be sent to the Aspen field office.

Environmental monitors will submit written memoranda through the LEM.

Agencies

Aspen will contact all agencies with permit authority over this project (see required permit lists in Exhibit 9). We will review their permit conditions with them and determine who shall be responsible for monitoring, compliance, and reporting. If the agency determines that they will directly conduct the required monitoring program, we will be in touch with their monitor and give any assistance required. If we are asked to monitor the implementation of agency measures, we will add them to our list of measures at each location, and will report on a daily basis to the respective agencies.

7.2 Contact List

Following, in Exhibit 11, is a contact list that includes all Federal, State, and local agencies with potential jurisdiction over the project. The list includes a contact name and phone number for each agency, names of Aspen's Team and PPSI personnel, and will include construction contractor personnel when available.

In case of an accident, some of these agencies should be contacted. PPSI is responsible for contacting these agencies; however, this table may be used by EMs if PPSI does not contact the agencies, or needs assistance from the EMs. [Note: this table will be updated when construction starts and provided to the EMs and appropriate agency personnel.]
