Construction: 4-11

Will independent environmental compliance monitoring be active on the site during construction hours throughout the construction process? Please explain in detail.

Invenergy will retain the services of a qualified environmental firm to monitor environmental compliance over the duration of CREC construction.  Invenergy will also require its construction contractor to monitor environmental compliance throughout CREC construction.  The environmental monitor will be on-site during construction activities that could result in environmental impacts, such as during the soil excavation stage.  The environmental monitor will be responsible for ensuring that the CREC construction activities comply with all applicable local, state and federal regulations and guidance, as well as all relevant project permits and approvals.  The environmental monitor will have the authority to stop any construction activities which pose a potential risk to the environment and to require the implementation of additional preventive measures or mitigation before such activities can resume. Invenergy will work closely with the environmental monitor and the construction contractor to ensure that all CREC construction activities will be conducted in a safe, environmentally responsible and compliant manner.
