Tennessee: ARAP water alterations are a separate construction input

TDEC identifies aquatic-resource authorization for physical alterations to streams, rivers, lakes or wetlands, including road/utility crossings, bank work, relocation and structural fill. Federal authorization may also be relevant.

Sitework Estimate provides remote, plan-based quantity takeoff support. This page does not establish a local office, completed local project, engineering approval or permit coverage.

What this changes in the bid review

Estimating interpretation: An erosion-control permit does not describe the full construction scope of a stream crossing. Quantify the accepted crossing and temporary measures from their own drawings rather than using a generic pipe-trench allowance.

Check the project documents

Clarification to request: Which aquatic-resource authorization governs the crossing, temporary diversion and final restoration?
