ATIACHMENT "A" MITIGATION MONITORING/COMPLIANCE PROGRAM FOR THE SAN BERNARDINO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT AND DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT (GP A 94-05 AND DCA 94-09) Introduction This Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Program has been prepared for use by the City of San Bernardino as it implements mitigation measures for the San Bernardino International Airport General Plan Amendment and Development Code Amendment (GPA 94-05 and DCA 94-09). These mitigation measures were identified as part of an Initial Study prepared on the GP A and DCA for the City and independently determined by the City to be adequate. This Initial Study was used by the City to determine that the impacts of implementing the GPA and DCA were adequately analyzed in the Final EIR for the Inland Valley Redevelopment Project EIR which was certified in June 1990 (See Section 15168 of the State CEQA Guidelines). The Initial Study incorporated seven of the mitigation measures that were contained within the Redevelopment Project EIR. This Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Program (MMCP) has been pr~pared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State and City CEQA Guidelines. CEQA Section 21081.6 requires adoption ofa reporting and/or monitoring program for those measures or conditions imposed on a project to mitigate or avoid adverse effects on the environment. The law states that the monitoring or reporting program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation. This MMCP contains the following elements: Applicant's General Responsibilities 1) The applicant/SBIAA is required to comply. with all mitigation measures and complete all monitoring and reporting requirements; 2) The applicant/SBIAA, as applicable, is responsible for the preparation and submittal of all reports, studies, and submittal requirements, as note, and all associated fees; 3) The applicant/SBIAA is responsible for obtaining the signature of the designated review agency or department for each applicable measure; and 4) The applicant/SBIA is responsible for submitting completed compliance records to the City. 1 RES 96-103 City of San Bernardino General Responsibilities 1) The City is responsible for reviewing and approving reports, studies, plans, etc., as identified in this MMCP; and 2) The Planning Division is responsible for maintaining the project file and monitoring requirements as identified in the MMCP. Organization of the Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Program 1) The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure compliance. 2) A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each mandatory mitigation action. This procedure designates who will take the action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when compliance will be reported. 3) The Program contains separate Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Records for each action. On each of these record sheets, the pertinent actions and dates will be logged, and copies of permits, correspondence or other data relevant to verifying mitigation implementation will be attached. Copies of the records will be retained by the City of San Bernardino as part of its project files. 4) The Program has been designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those responsible for the Program. If changes are made, new monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and incorporated into the Program. The individual measures and the accompanying monitoring/reporting actions follow. They are listed in the same sequence as presented in the Project Initial Study, Attachment D. 2 RES 96-103 Mitie:ation Measures Identified In The Initial Study GEOLOGY AND SOILS MITIGATION MEASURE Incorporate the results of site specific geotechnical studies, which address the potential for ground shaking, liquefaction, and subsidence, into the design, engineering, and seismic retrofitting of all development, redevelopment of existing structures, and other construction projects planned and funded hy the IVDA. Design new structures to withstand the site specific seismic accelerations predicted by the geotechnical investigations to occur as a result of maximum credible seismic events on Imown active faults in the area; these accelerations may be in excess of those provided for in the Uniform Building Code. Ensure proper design and engineering, hased on the results of site specific geotechnical studies, which address the potential for ground shaldng, liquefaction, and subsidence, of all new water and wastewater conveyance facilities. Minimize wind erosion, particularly in areas underlain by Tujunga loamy sand, through application of dust palliatives during grading and other construction or redevelopment activities. If paleontologic resources are encountered during redevelopment or other construction activities, notify the San Bernardino County Museum Division of Earth Science, and obtain an assessment by a qualified paleontologist of the significance and extent of the fossiliferous deposit. In the event that the deposit is determined to be significant and more extensive, develop and implement a program to identify, recover, curate and report on the nature and significance of the paleontologic resource. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION Site specific geotechnical studies for retrofitting existing structures and new structures shall be submitted to the City of San Bernardino by the applicant for review and approval. For new structures seismic design shall incorporate engineering requirements to withstand ground shaking that may be caused by the maximum credible seismic in the region. The City shall retain a copy of the studies as part of the project file. Site specific geotechnical studies shall also be prepared by the applicant for new water and wastewater conveyance facilities. These studies shall address the potential effects of ground shaking, liquefaction, and subsidence and will be submitted to the City or appropriate water and wastewater agencies for review. A copy of the studies shall be retained in the project file. The City shall require application of dust palliatives to control fugitive dust for all ground disturbing activities that occur at the San Bernardino International Airport. This requirement will be implemented in all construction contracts awarded by the Authority. A copy of the contract shall be retained as part of verification and contract inspectors shall verify that dust palliatives are being utilized as required in the contract by recording this fact in their field notes. A copy of the notes shall be retained with the project file. Authority contracts that cause disturbance beneath the existing ground surface shall include a clause requiring notification of the Museum if paleontological resources are encountered. A copy 3 RES 96-103 of the contract and any notification materials or follow-up work shall be retained with the project file. COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: All site specific geotechnical studies shall be submitted and approved prior to City approval of building permits for an individual project. Contracts with dust control provisions shall be completed prior to any ground disturbance, and field inspection notes shall be placed in the project file following completion of each construction project. Contracts with paleontological provisions shall be completed prior to any subsurface ground disturbance activities, and copies of notifications and reports shall be placed in the project file as generated.

This measure does not directly upply to the GPA and DC4 and therefore, it does not require monitoring. Support construction of the Seven Oaks Dam, upstream in the Santa Ana Canyon, to reduce flood flows in the Santa Ana River and allow the channel to safely pass the worst likely flood through the project area. The IVDA may choose to support only a portion of the local costs associated with this project. The Dam is under construction and this project does not directly apply to the GPA and DC4 and therefore, it does not require monitoring. Several secondary stormwater drainage projects are recommended for implementation in support of the project. The Lankershim Drain, immediately north ofthe Base, would serve an area that currently suITers frequent ponding and poor drainage, which would be remedied by this Priority I project. Several additional flood control projects are proposed for the arca immediately west and southwest of the Base. These include Timber Creek (priority IIn, Central Avenue (priority Vn and Mill Street (priority VIn. These projects would directly scnrc IVDA areas, and should be considered for project support. The estimated cost of these four projects is $6.3 million. A small portion of the Project Area lies within the 100 year floodplain of the San Timoteo Creek Channel. The total local share of the cost for upgrading this channel is $16.3 million. This upgrade would be eligible for IVDA participation. Construction of the upgrades is scheduled to hegin in 1993. This measure does not directly apply to the GPA and DCA and therefore, it does not require monitoring. As plans for the reuse of Norton AFB become morc specific, a drainage study should be conducted to assure that an adequate drainage system is developed. This study should also look at downstream eITects of drainage from the northern and western portions of the Bllse to assure that such problems arc avoided. The ASL study reviewed drainage requirements and this measure no longer applies to the GPA and DCA and therefore, it does not require monitoring. Stormwater retention basins should be employed where feasible to maximize groundwater infiltration and reduce the necessary capacities of downstream con\'eyance facilities. During construction, standard construction measures should be sufficient to prevent excessive erosion and resulting water quality impacts, Such measures inelude the following: . Minimize the area of construction disturbance; Minimize the amount of time that disturbed soil is exposed to erosion, by carefully timing the site grading to occur immediately before the initiation of construction; . Keep runotTon site during construction; alternatively, install temporar}' sediment traps in the local drainages around the project site; . Schedule construction during the dry season (May through October, wherever possible); . After project completion, stabilize the soil and revegetate as soon as possible, irrigating as necessary to establish new vegetative cover. 5 RES 96-103 ~~ Additional mitigations include the following: Implement monthly street sweeping programs for all redevelopment projects supported by the IVDA to minimize the accumulative of street pollutants and their subsequent flushing to nearby streams during storms. . Require regular sweeping ofparldng lots as a requirement for approval of individual projects. . Industrial and commercial developments should be reviewed by the wastewater treatment department that would be receiving and treating the wastewater, to assure that toxic materials are removed to acceptably low concentrations. In this regard, the existing industrial wastewater treatment plant at Norton AFB may be adapted for continued use, as the Base and surrounding areas undergo redevelopment. . Consideration should be given to an IVDA contribution to the completion of the Santa Ana Regional Interceptor (Reach IV-E) for possihle use by industries in the redevelopment area. To otTset minor reductions in local groundwater recharge, ",'hich may result from redevelopment, stormwater retention ponds should be considered for the larger individual projects. Hazardous materials storage, handling and disposal regulations should continue to be strictly enforced by San Bernardino County to minimize the possihility of releases into the environment. The SBIA lease with the Air Force requires strict compliance with all hazardous material handling and disposal regulations, including adherence to a Spill Prevention Control Countermeasures Plan. Submittal of business plans to the City is mandatory at this time and therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. The Installation Restoration Program at Norton AFB should he continued. When ultimately completed, long- term groundwater cleanup measures should be carried out by the Air Force to assure restoration of high quality groundwater underlying the Base. Redevelopment plans should be coordinated with the Air Force to assure that such plans do not interfere with groundwater cleanup measures. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION Of the four secondary stormwater drain projects, only the Lankershim Drain falls within the GP AlDCA amendment area As future development occurs within the SBIA and adjacent areas on Third Street, the need for improvements will be reviewed by and a determination will be made by the City regarding the necessity of constructing this flood control facility. A copy of the drainage report if required, will be prepared by the applicant and submitted to the City Public Works Department. The City's decision regarding construction of this improvement will be retained in the project file. The SBIA shall submit an erosion control plan to the City containing appropriate erosion control actions, including the need for stormwater retention basins, from this measure for review and approval for all projects disturbing more than five acres at one time. A copy of the approved plan shall be retained by the City in the project file. During field inspections, inspectors shall verify that the erosion control plan is being implemented and copies of inspection notes shall be placed in the project file after construction is completed. 6 RES 96-103 For large projects SBIA will consult with the City regarding the need for stormwater retention ponds to increase recharge. The results of this consultation will be documented in the project file. If retention ponds are constructed, a copy of the as built drawings will be retained in the project file to verify completion. The IRP program is progressing at the SBITC&A and in compliance with the SBIA Master Lease with the Air Force, all redevelopment activities are carefully coordinated with the Air Force to ensure that conflicts do not arise. Copies of redevelopment project submittals to the Air Force that require review and/or approval will be retained in the SBIA project file along with approvals by the Air Force. COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: Iffuture redevelopment would affect the Lankershim Drain, copies of the drainage report to the City will be submitted before construction is allowed to proceed. The City's decision regarding the need for this improvement will also be rendered before construction is allowed to proceed. The erosion control plan shall be approved prior to initiating ground disturbance. Inspection notes shall be placed in the project file by the end of authorized construction activities. The consultation shall be completed prior to initiating ground disturbance. The copy of the as built drawings shall be placed in the project file following final inspection and approval of the ponds. Redevelopment project submittals and Air Force approvals shall be placed in the project file prior to commencement of construction.

Whenever feasible, implement alternative scheduling, project designs, andlor establish butTer zones to assure avoidance of any sensitive biological resources. Implement restoration and monitoring programs to assure a return to natural conditions after construction related disturbances. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION Copies of site specific biological surveys shall be prepared by the SBIAA or applicant and reviewed by the USFWS and DFG as appropriate. Copies of site specific surveys and correspondence with the FWS/DFG shall be retained in the project file. Measures to reduce impacts shall be noted in these surveys and FWS/DFG approvals. Implementation of restoration and monitoring program measures shall be verified by field inspection and inspection notes shall be retained in the project file. COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: Biological surveys shall be prepared and reviewed prior to initiating any ground disturbance.

Require dust abatement measures during grading and construction operations. Evaluate the air emissions of industrial land uses to ensure that the)' will not impact adjacent uses. Cooperate with the SCAQMD, and incorporate pertinent local implementation provisions of the Air Quality Management Plan. Work with the SCAQMD to establish controls, and monitor uses in the City that could add to the air basin's degradation (e.g., auto repair, manufacturers). Work with the other local cities in the South Coast Air Basin to implement regional mechanisms to reduce air emissions and improve air quality. Promote a pattern of land uses that locates residential uses in close proximity to employment and commercial senrices and provides, to the fullest extent possible, loc~lI job opportunities and commercial senrices to minimize vehicular travel and associated air emissions. Designate lands for the development of new uses that increase the jobs-housing balance, to the fullest extent possible. Disperse urban sen'ice centers (libraries, post offices, social services, etc.) to minimize vehicle miles traveled and the concomitant dispersion of air pollutants. Implement the installation of streetscape improvements amI other amenities to encourage pedestrian activity in key City areas, to reduce vehicle travel and associated air emissions. Facilitate the development of centralized parking lots and structures in commercial districts to promote walking between individual businesses in lieu of the use of automobiles. Establish development standards that concentrate new commercial buildings in proximity to existing commercial buildings and pedestrian areas in order to facilitate walking and to reduce vehicular trips. Consider implementing a shuttle system that will connect the Tri-City/Commercenter, Downtown Area, and Regional Opportunities Corridor. Require new development to implement or participate in transportation demand management programs that provide incentives for car pooling, van pools, and the use of public transit, and employ other trip reduction techniques (consistent with the Circulation Element and South Coast Air Quality Management Plan. Continue to cooperate with Omnitrans and the Rapid Transit District to expand as necessary the comprehensive mass transit system for the City to reduce vehicular travel. Consider developing a program to restrict the use of automobiles during Stage 2 or higher air quality alerts. Promote the use of public transit and alternative travel modes to reduce air emissions. 10 RES 96-103 Provide incentives for existing buildings to retrofit and require new buildings to incorporate low polluting energy systems. Purchase City vehicles that use energy efficient fuel and minimize air pollution. Require the incorporation of water and energy conservation features in the design of all new construction and site development, as required by State law. Evaluate the means of establishing an appropriate program by which energy efficient fixtures and energy saving design elements can be installed in existing multifamily residential, commercial and industrial developments. Require energy audits of existing public structures and encourage audits of private structures, identifying levels of existing energy use and potential conservation measures. Provide incentives, including technical assistance and possible low-interest loans, for the installation of energy conservation measures in existing buildings characterized by a high level of energy consumption. Require the use of passive design concepts, in accordance with State law, which mal<e use of the natural climate to increase energy efficiency. Educate the public regarding the need for energy consen'ation techniques that can be employed, and systems that are available. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION All SBlAA or applicant proposed mitigation measures to reduce air quality impacts shall be reviewed by the City and measures identified for projects within the GPNDCA area prior to approval. This requirement will apply to SBIA reuse projects that generate stationary air emissions exceeding New Source Review thresholds (4 tons per year for individual pollutants) within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB) and reuse projects that generate mobile source emissions that exceed the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook thresholds. The specific measures to be implemented from the list above shall be documented and a copy of the measures retained in the project file. Inspection notes verifying compliance with the measures shall be retained in the project file. COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: The list of specific air emission mitigation measures shall be compiled and placed in the project file prior to initiation of operations by the reuse activity. During SB1AA inspections of the facilities/operations, inspection for compliance with emission mitigation measures shall be performed and inspection notes retained in the project file at the completion of the inspection.

Should the records check indicate the presence of known archaeological or historical resources, or a moderate to high sensitivity for such resources being present, a cultural resources field survey of the project area shall be conducted by a qualified professional. Depending on the types of cultural resources involved, the qualified professional(s) may be a prehistoric archaeologist, historic archaeologist, historian and/or architectural historian. All identified cultural resources within a project area shall be documented on appropriate forms to be filed with the Archaeological Information Center, and shall be evaluated for significance/importance according to the criteria in CEQA Appendix K and/or the criteria for eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, as specified in 36 CFR 60.4. The results of the cultural resources field survC)' shall be documented in a written report following the Guidelines for Cultural Resource Management Reports of the Archaeological Information Center, and shall be filed at that location. A plan to mitigate impacts to significant/important cultural resources shall be developed and implemented prior to or in conjunction with project construction. Mitigation may include data recovery (excavation, analysis, and curation of archaeological resources), archival research and photographic documentation of historic structures, or avoidance and presenration in place of archaeological or historic resources. The Native American Heritage Commission and San Manuel Reservation shall be notified in writing of any proposed evaluation or mitigation excavations that involve Native American archaeological remains, and any comments or concerns expressed by the Native American communit)' shall be fully considered. The results of any studies conducted for cultural resources impact mitigation shall be documented in a written report and filed at the Archaeological Information Center. All artifacts collected or recovered in cultural resource investigations shall be catalogued and curated with the San Bernardino County Museum. Note: The Air Force Final EISfor disposal and reuse determined that no significa11l cultural or historical resources exist at Norton. This review included consultation with the Museum and the State Historic PreselVation Office. The only potential cultural resources of concern on the SBITC&A would be subsurface resources that might be exposed during constnfc/ion. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION If cultural resources are encountered during subsurface excavations, the procedures outlined above will be followed by the applicant or the SBlAA. A qualified professional will be contacted, the Museum will be contacted and a plan will be prepared to treat and/or manage the discovered resources. Copies of memoranda or reports documenting these actions, including the final disposition report, will be retained in the project file. 14 U:; ':I1I-IU.j COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: The qualified professional will be contacted immediately following discovery of a resource. The Museum will be notified immediately after a determination of the significance of the discovered resources is developed. Documentation of these contacts will be placed in the project file as the events occur. All reports will be placed in project file following their completion.

Alternative techniques are available to shift the vehicular traffic demands to alternative time periods or to alternative modes of transportation. These elements should be incorporated into a Transportation Systems Management (TSM) and Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan for appropriate IVDA supported projects. Actions to make better use of the existing networl<, reduce auto usage in congested areas or time periods, and increase transit ridership through improved service and efficiency include the following programs: . A program to encourage on-Base or project area employers to provide employees with optional alternative worl\. schedules, including staggered work hours, tlexible work hours, and 4 day, 40 hour work-wecl{s to avoid commuting during rush hours. . A program to encourage employers to enhance utilization of public transit by providing work hours that meet transit schedules, partial or full reimbursement of tnmsit fares, providing bus shelters, providing shuttle service to multi-modal transit centers, and distributing information on transit routes and schedules. . A program to encourage employers to tal{e steps to increase auto occupancy, such as creation of carpools and vanpools, providing preferential parking for carpools and van pools, implementation of matching programs for prospective carpoolers, and levying parldng fees as disincentives to single occupancy vehicles. A program to incorporate bicycle incentives into project designs. These may include safe storage facilities and dedicated lanes or paths. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION Traffic studies, including Traffic Impact Analyses__ (TIA) in accordance with the regional Congestion Management Plan (CMP), will be prepared by the SBlAA or applicant and submitted to the City for review and approval. A copy of the approved study will be retained in the project file. The programs outlined above will be addressed in the traffic studies or the air quality studies for uses with more than 100 employees, or with more than 50 vehicle trips within the peak hour. Measures identified in the traffic studies that are required to implement the above programs or to reduce significant circulation system impacts will be verified by inspection and placing as built drawings in the project file. COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: The traffic studies shall be submitted and approved prior to initiating construction for a project. As built drawings will be provided to the City upon completion of the improvement.

New firefighting equipment and necessary modifications to the existing Base fire facility should be supported by the IVDA. The City Fire Department already provides fire protection services to the CPA and DCA area under existing agreements, therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. The City of San Bernardino Police Department should plan for the orderly transfer of public protection services at the Base. New equipment needs related to this added responsibility should be supported by the IVDA. The City Police Department already provides law enforcement service to the CPA and DCA area under existing agreements, therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. Municipal and regional recreation departments should enter into cooperative agreements to ensure that the existing recreational facilities located at Norton AFB are available to serve and benefit the area residents. This should include the use of pools, ballfields, the gymnasium, etc. The City Parks and Recreation Department has independent control of the recreation facilities, not the SBlAA, therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. The existing golf course should be operated and maintained as a golf course for puhlic use. The existing golf course in operated by the IVDA, not the SHIM, and it is outside of the CPA and DCA area. Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. The IVDA should consider the development of a linear parI< along the Santa Ana River, utilizing Base lands adjacent to the river, This area is outside of the CPA and DCA urea under IVDA control; therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. Water conservation should be required orihe individual redevelopment programs. This should include the following measures: . Use oflowtlow (1.5 gallons) toilets; . Prohibit the hosedown of parking lots and loading areas; vacuum vehicles should be used, instead; . Minimize the use oflawns in landscaping; encourage the use of drought tolerant plants; . Use automatic irrigation systems timed to irrigate during the low water use hours: 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m.; For industries requiring water, recirculation/reuse where feasible to minimize water reuse; In light of current groundwater contamination problems on the Base (Section 9.2.1), the quality ofthe Base wells should be closely monitored. Contingency plans for drilling replacement wells in areas unlikely to be influenced by known groundwater contamination should be developed, in the event one or more of the current wells develops water quality problems. The local wastewater utilities should be involved in the siting of new industries within the redevelopment area. Strong industrial wastewater pretreatment requirements should be developed for each industry to protect the treatment processes of the municipal wastewater plants. The Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant at the Base should be considered for continued use to treat the wastes of new industries locating at the Base. The SARI line may also prove feasihle for disposing of industrial discharges, and should be investigated. The treatment plant is being removed by the Air Force as part of the IRP 18 RES 96-103 remediation and is not available/or reuse. The SARI line is not requiredfor any known use that may occur within the GPAlDCA area. Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. The water and sewer lines serving the Base should be evaluated for needed upgrades to sCn'ice the redeveloped Base. The ASL Report contained an evaluation of water and sewer lines as the exist and as they will be needed in the future based on forecast development within the GPAlDCA area. New water and sewer lines are being installed in accordance with this study. Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. . A solid waste source reduction and recycling element should be prepared in accordance with AB939, which will outline specific waste reduction mechanisms to achieve the state mandated solid waste reduction of 25 percent by the year 1995 and 50 percent solid waste reduction by the year 2000. The City prepared a Source Reduction and Recycling Element (SRRE) and aU existing and future businesses at the SBIA must conform with the Plan. Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. Trash receptacle guidelines/standards for commercial and residential devclopments should be included in the project's design guidelines. This could include, but not be limited to trash compactors, source separation, solid waste reduction and recycling. City design guidelines and the SRRE address the contents of this measure as noted above. Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. . The northeast portion of the Base contains landfill areas known to contain hazardous or toxic wastes. Mitigation of any potential hazards at this site is being addressed as part of the Base's Installation Restoration Program (see Section 9), and an EIS being prepared by the Department of Defense on the Base closure. The Air Force, in cooperation with the State Department of Health and the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, plans to clean up the hazardous or toxic waste. These areas must be cleaned up prior to transfer of the Base to civilian use. The transfer of the Base property has already been accomplished and the Air Force is in the process of completing the economic and environmental evaluation of the proposed clean-up and closure of this landfilL Therefore, this measure does not require monitoring. IMPLEMENTATION AND VERIFICATION Reuse and redevelopment projects, whether incorporating new structures, or retrofitting of existing structures, will submit building plans incorporating water conservation measures that meet State and local guidelines. The City will verify compliance with these measures when approving the building plans and will retain a copy of the approved plans in the project file. Water produced from any wells operated by the City within the GPAlDCA area shall be tested by the City in accordance with standard water quality test protocols and copies of the water quality tests shall be retained in the project file. The City has already initiated plans to drill new wells to back-up and/or replace existing irrigation and municipal water production within the GPAlDCA area. Approval from the Air Force for authority to drill these wells is being obtained and a copy of this approval will be retained in the project file. Any new industry that generates industrial wastewater will be required to confer with the City and obtain approval for the wastewater pretreatment systems used, if required. A copy of the City approval and as built-drawings of the pretreatment system shall be retained in the project file. 19 KIll) 96-103 COMPLIANCE RECORD WHEN REQUIRED: Building plans will be approved and filed prior to initiating construction. Inspection notes will be placed in the project file for retention when compiled. Water test data will be placed in the project file following compilation by the test lab. A copy of the Air Force approval letter for installing new wells will be placed in the project file when delivered to the City. Approvals for wastewater pretreatment systems will be placed in the project file prior to construction of the pretreatment system. As built drawings will be placed in the project file after final inspection.
