INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
**************************************************************************
NOTE: DoD Installations are required under DoDI
4150.7 to develop an integrated pest management plan
(IPMP). The Facility IPMP has been developed by the
installation to identify potential pest-related
risks of damage to installation properties as well
as approaches to be used to limit these risks. The
Designer should coordinate with the Installation
Pest Management Coordinator early in the design
process to address structural, landscaping and other
pest damage reduction alternatives to pesticide
applications when cost effective. This effort may
be multidisciplinary in scope (i.e.
planner/landscape architect, natural resource
manager etc.). The pest management plans and
strategies developed during design and construction
should be reviewed and approved by DoD pest
management professionals and coordinated with IPMC
as required by DA AR 200-5 and DoDI 4150.7.
The following paragraph is to be used when the
application of pest management chemicals is OR is
NOT anticipated. These requirements must be
included as a plan within the Environmental
Protection Plan. When a pest is known to be in the
soil, the Designer should identify the pest and the
area to be treated. This paragraph should be left
intact to cover pesticide applications not
anticipated by the Designer. When termiticide is
required, the Designer should include the bracketed
sentence and include Section 02630 STORM DRAINAGE in
the contract specifications. Delete last sentence
when not applicable. The "installation pest
management coordinator" is a term used in DA AR
200-5 Pest Management. DA AR 200-5 is not
applicable to USACE Civil Works activities.
Appropriate USACE personnel should be referenced
when this specification is used for civil works.

OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE GUIDANCE AND PROCEDURES,
Chapter 3 - Pest Control Program for Civil Works
Projects.

In order to minimize impacts to existing fauna and flora, the Contractor,
through the Contracting Officer, shall coordinate with the Installation
Pest Management Coordinator (IPMC) Project Pesticide Coordinator (PPC)at
the earliest possible time prior to pesticide application. The Contractor
shall discuss integrated pest management strategies with the [IPMC] [PPC]
and receive concurrence from the [IPMC] [PPC] through the COR prior to the
