For a project that requires a SWPPP, start job site activities within 55 days after receiving notice that the Contract has been approved by the Attorney General or the attorney appointed and authorized to represent the Department.
Submit a notice 72 hours before starting job site activities. If the project has more than 1 work location, submit a separate notice for each location.
You may start job site activities before receiving notice of Contract approval if you:

2. Submit a 72-hour notice
3. Obtain an encroachment permit from the Department
4. Receive the Department's authorization to start

If the Contract is approved, work already performed that complies with the Contract is authorized.
If the Contract is not approved, leave the job site in a neat condition. If a facility has been changed, restore it to its former condition or an equivalent condition. The Department does not pay for the restoration.
The Department does not adjust time for work performed before Contract approval.

8-1.06 SUSPENSIONS
The Engineer may suspend work wholly or in part due to conditions unsuitable for work progress. Provide for public safety and a smooth and unobstructed passageway through the work zone during the suspension as specified in sections 7-1.03 and 7-1.04. Providing the passageway is force account work. The Department makes a time adjustment for the suspension due to a critical delay.
The Engineer may suspend work wholly or in part due to your failure to (1) fulfill the Engineer's orders, (2) fulfill a Contract part, or (3) perform weather-dependent work when conditions are favorable so that weather-related unsuitable conditions are avoided or do not occur. The Department may provide for a smooth and unobstructed passageway through the work during the suspension and deduct the cost from payments. The Department does not make a time adjustment for the suspension.
Upon the Engineer's order of suspension, suspend work immediately. Resume work when ordered.
