5-04.3(3)B Hauling Equipment 1 Provide HMA hauling equipment with tight, clean, smooth metal beds and a 2 cover of canvas or other suitable material of sufficient size to protect the HMA 3 from adverse weather. Securely attach the cover to protect the HMA whenever 4 the weather conditions during the work shift include, or are forecast to include, 5 precipitation or an air temperature less than 45°F. 6 7 Prevent HMA from adhering to the hauling equipment. Spray metal beds with 8 an environmentally benign release agent. Drain excess release agent prior to 9 filling hauling equipment with HMA. Do not use petroleum derivatives or other 10 coating material that contaminate or alter the characteristics of the HMA. For 11 hopper trucks, operate the conveyer during the process of applying the release 12 agent. 13 14 5-04.3(3)C Pavers 15 Use self-contained, power-propelled pavers provided with an internally heated 16 vibratory screed that is capable of spreading and finishing courses of HMA in 17 lane widths required by the paving section shown in the Plans. 18 19 When requested by the Engineer, provide written certification that the paver is 20 equipped with the most current equipment available from the manufacturer for 21 the prevention of segregation of the coarse aggregate particles. The 22 certification shall list the make, model, and year of the paver and any 23 equipment that has been retrofitted to the paver. 24 25 Operate the screed in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations 26 and in a manner to produce a finished surface of the required evenness and 27 texture without tearing, shoving, segregating, or gouging the mixture. Provide 28 a copy of the manufacturer’s recommendations upon request by the 29 Contracting Agency. Extensions to the screed will be allowed provided they 30 produce the same results, including ride, density, and surface texture as 31 obtained by the primary screed. In the Travelled Way do not use extensions 32 without both augers and an internally heated vibratory screed. 33 34 Equip the paver with automatic screed controls and sensors for either or both 35 sides of the paver. The controls shall be capable of sensing grade from an 36 outside reference line, sensing the transverse slope of the screed, and 37 providing automatic signals that operate the screed to maintain the desired 38 grade and transverse slope. Construct the sensor so it will operate from a 39 reference line or a mat referencing device. The transverse slope controller 40 shall be capable of maintaining the screed at the desired slope within plus or 41 minus 0.1 percent. 42 43 Equip the paver with automatic feeder controls, properly adjusted to maintain a 44 uniform depth of material ahead of the screed. 45 46 Manual operation of the screed is permitted in the construction of irregularly 47 shaped and minor areas. These areas include, but are not limited to, gore 48 areas, road approaches, tapers and left-turn channelizations. 49 50 When specified in the Contract, provide reference lines for vertical control. 51 Place reference lines on both outer edges of the Traveled Way of each 52


Roadway. Horizontal control utilizing the reference line is permitted. 1 Automatically control the grade and slope of intermediate lanes by means of 2 reference lines or a mat referencing device and a slope control device. When 3 the finish of the grade prepared for paving is superior to the established 4 tolerances and when, in the opinion of the Engineer, further improvement to 5 the line, grade, cross-section, and smoothness can best be achieved without 6 the use of the reference line, a mat referencing device may be substituted for 7 the reference line. Substitution of the device will be subject to the continued 8 approval of the Engineer. A joint matcher may be used subject to the approval 9 of the Engineer. The reference line may be removed after completion of the 10 first course of HMA when approved by the Engineer. Whenever the Engineer 11 determines that any of these methods are failing to provide the necessary 12 vertical control, the reference lines will be reinstalled by the Contractor. 13 14 Furnish and install all pins, brackets, tensioning devices, wire, and accessories 15 necessary for satisfactory operation of the automatic control equipment. 16 17 If the paving machine in use is not providing the required finish, the Engineer 18 may suspend Work as allowed by Section 1-08.6. 19 20 5-04.3(3)D Material Transfer Device or Material Transfer Vehicle 21 Use a material transfer device (MTD) or material transfer vehicle (MTV) to 22 deliver the HMA from the hauling equipment to the paving machine for any lift 23 in (or partially in) the top 0.30 feet of the pavement section used in traffic 24 lanes. However, an MTD/V is not required for HMA placed in irregularly 25 shaped and minor areas such as tapers and turn lanes, or for HMA mixture 26 that is accepted by Visual Evaluation. At the Contractor’s request the Engineer 27 may approve paving without an MTD/V; the Engineer will determine if an 28 equitable adjustment in cost or time is due. If a windrow elevator is used, the 29 Engineer may limit the length of the windrow in urban areas or through 30 intersections. 31 32 To be approved for use, an MTV: 33 34

Do not use rollers that crush aggregate, produce pickup or 14 washboard, unevenly compact the surface, displace the mix, or produce other 15 undesirable results. 16 17

5-04.3(4) Preparation of Existing Paved Surfaces 18 Before constructing HMA on an existing paved surface, the entire surface of the 19 pavement shall be clean. Entirely remove all fatty asphalt patches, grease 20 drippings, and other deleterious substances from the existing pavement to the 21 satisfaction of the Engineer. Thoroughly clean all pavements or bituminous 22 surfaces of dust, soil, pavement grindings, and other foreign matter. Thoroughly 23 remove any cleaning or solvent type liquids used to clean equipment spilled on the 24 pavement before paving proceeds. Fill all holes and small depressions with an 25 appropriate class of HMA. Level and thoroughly compact the surface of the patched 26 area. 27 28 Apply a uniform coat of asphalt (tack coat) to all paved surfaces on which any 29 course of HMA is to be placed or abutted. Apply tack coat to cover the cleaned 30 existing pavement with a thin film of residual asphalt free of streaks and bare spots. 31 Apply a heavy application of tack coat to all joints. For Roadways open to traffic, 32 limit the application of tack coat to surfaces that will be paved during the same 33 working shift. Equip the spreading equipment with a thermometer to indicate the 34 temperature of the tack coat material. 35 36 Do not operate equipment on tacked surfaces until the tack has broken and cured. 37 Repair tack coat damaged by the Contractor’s operation, prior to placement of the 38 HMA. 39 40 Unless otherwise approved by the Engineer, use CSS-1, CSS-1h, or Performance 41 Graded (PG) asphalt for tack coat. The CSS-1 and CSS-1h emulsified asphalt may 42 be diluted with water at a rate not to exceed one part water to one part emulsified 43 asphalt. Do not allow the tack coat material to exceed the maximum temperature 44 recommended by the asphalt supplier. 45 46 When shown in the Plans, prelevel uneven or broken surfaces over which HMA is 47 to be placed by using an asphalt paver, a motor patrol grader, or by hand raking, as 48 approved by the Engineer. 49 50


5-04.3(4)A Crack Sealing 1 5-04.3(4)A1 General 2 When the Proposal includes a pay item for crack sealing, seal all cracks ¼ 3 inch in width and greater. 4 5 Cleaning: Ensure that cracks are thoroughly clean, dry and free of all 6 loose and foreign material when filling with crack sealant material. Use a 7 hot compressed air lance to dry and warm the pavement surfaces within 8 the crack immediately prior to filling a crack with the sealant material. Do 9 not overheat pavement. Do not use direct flame dryers. Routing cracks is 10 not required. 11 12 Sand Slurry: For cracks that are to be filled with sand slurry, thoroughly 13 mix the components and pour the mixture into the cracks until full. Add 14 additional CSS-1 emulsified asphalt to the sand slurry as needed for 15 workability to ensure the mixture will completely fill the crack. Strike off 16 the sand slurry flush with the existing pavement surface and allow the 17 mixture to cure. Top off cracks that were not completely filled with 18 additional sand slurry. Do not place the HMA overlay until the slurry has 19 fully cured. 20 21 Hot Poured Sealant: For cracks that are to be filled with hot poured 22 sealant, apply the material in accordance with these requirements and the 23 manufacturer's recommendations. Furnish a Type 1 Working Drawing of 24 the manufacturer's recommendations to the Engineer prior to the start of 25 work, including the manufacturer’s recommended heating time and 26 temperatures, allowable storage time and temperatures after initial 27 heating, allowable reheating criteria, and application temperature range. 28 Confine hot poured sealant material within the crack. Clean any overflow 29 of sealant from the pavement surface. If, in the opinion of the Engineer, 30 the Contractor’s method of sealing the cracks with hot poured sealant 31 results in an excessive amount of material on the pavement surface, stop 32 and correct the operation to eliminate the excess material. 33 34 5-04.3(4)A2 Crack Sealing Areas Prior to Paving 35 In areas where HMA will be placed, use sand slurry to fill the cracks. 36 37 5-04.3(4)A3 Crack Sealing Areas Not to be Paved 38 In areas where HMA will not be placed, fill the cracks as follows: 39 40

1. Cracks ¼ inch to 1 inch in width - fill with hot poured sealant. 41 42 2. Cracks greater than 1 inch in width – fill with sand slurry. 43

44 5-04.3(4)B Soil Residual Herbicide 45 Where shown in the Plans, apply one application of an approved soil residual 46 herbicide. Comply with Section 8-02.3(3)B. Complete paving within 48 hours of 47 applying the herbicide. 48 49 Use herbicide registered with the Washington State Department of Agriculture 50 for use under pavement. Before use, obtain the Engineer’s approval of the 51


herbicide and the proposed rate of application. Include the following 1 information in the request for approval of the material: 2 3

1. Brand Name of the Material, 4 5 2. Manufacturer, 6 7 3. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Registration Number, 8 9 4. Material Safety Data Sheet, and 10 11 5. Proposed Rate of Application. 12

13 5-04.3(4)C Pavement Repair 14 Excavate pavement repair areas and backfill these with HMA in accordance 15 with the details shown in the Plans and as staked. Conduct the excavation 16 operations in a manner that will protect the pavement that is to remain. Repair 17 pavement not designated to be removed that is damaged as a result of the 18 Contractor’s operations to the satisfaction of the Engineer at no cost to the 19 Contracting Agency. Excavate only within one lane at a time unless approved 20 otherwise by the Engineer. Do not excavate more area than can be completely 21 backfilled and compacted during the same shift. 22 23 Unless otherwise shown in the Plans or determined by the Engineer, excavate 24 to a depth of 1.0 feet. The Engineer will make the final determination of the 25 excavation depth required. 26 27 The minimum width of any pavement repair area shall be 40 inches unless 28 shown otherwise in the Plans. Before any excavation, sawcut the perimeter of 29 the pavement area to be removed unless the pavement in the pavement repair 30 area is to be removed by a pavement grinder. 31 32 Excavated materials shall be the property of the Contractor and shall be 33 disposed of in a Contractor-provided site off the Right of Way or used in 34 accordance with Sections 2-02.3(3) or 9-03.21. 35 36 Apply a heavy application of tack coat to all surfaces of existing pavement in 37 the pavement repair area, in accordance with Section 5-04.3(4). 38 39 Place the HMA backfill in lifts not to exceed 0.35-foot compacted depth. 40 Thoroughly compact each lift by a mechanical tamper or a roller. 41 42 5-04.3(5) Producing/Stockpiling Aggregates, RAP, & RAS 43 Produce aggregate in compliance with Section 3-01. Comply with Section 3-02 44 for preparing stockpile sites, stockpiling, and removing from stockpile each of 45 the following: aggregates, RAP, and RAS. Provide sufficient storage space for 46 each size of aggregate, RAP and RAS. Fine aggregate or RAP may be 47 uniformly blended with the RAS as a method of preventing the agglomeration 48 of RAS particles. Remove the aggregates, RAP and RAS from stockpile(s) in a 49 manner that ensures minimal segregation when being moved to the HMA plant 50 for processing into the final mixture. Keep different aggregate sizes separated 51 until they have been delivered to the HMA plant. 52


1 5-04.3(5)A Stockpiling RAP or RAS for High RAP/Any RAS Mixes 2 Do not place any RAP or RAS into a stockpile which has been 3 sequestered for a High RAP/Any RAS mix design. Do not incorporate any 4 RAP or RAS into a High RAP/Any RAS mixture from any source other 5 than the stockpile which was sequestered for approval of that particular 6 High RAP/Any RAS mix design. 7 8 RAP that is used in a Low RAP/No RAS mix is not required to come from 9 a sequestered stockpile. 10

11 5-04.3(6) Mixing 12 The asphalt supplier shall introduce anti-stripping additive, in the amount 13 designated on the QPL for the mix design, into the asphalt binder prior to 14 shipment to the asphalt mixing plant. 15 16 Anti-strip is not required for temporary work that will be removed prior to 17 Physical Completion. 18 19 Use asphalt binder of the grade, and from the supplier, in the approved mix 20 design. 21 22 Prior to introducing reclaimed materials into the asphalt plant, remove wire, 23 nails, and other foreign material. Discontinue use of the reclaimed material if 24 the Engineer, in their sole discretion, determines the wire, nails, or other 25 foreign material to be excessive. 26 27 Size RAP and RAS prior to entering the mixer to provide uniform and 28 thoroughly mixed HMA. If there is evidence of the RAP or RAS not breaking 29 down during the heating and mixing of the HMA, immediately suspend the use 30 of the RAP or RAS until changes have been approved by the Engineer. 31 32 After the required amount of mineral materials, RAP, RAS, new asphalt binder 33 and recycling agent have been introduced into the mixer, mix the HMA until 34 complete and uniform coating of the particles and thorough distribution of the 35 asphalt binder throughout the mineral materials, RAP and RAS is ensured. 36 37 Upon discharge from the mixer, ensure that the temperature of the HMA does 38 not exceed the optimum mixing temperature shown on the approved Mix 39 Design Report by more than 25°F, or as approved by the Engineer. When a 40 WMA additive is included in the manufacture of HMA, do not heat the WMA 41 additive (at any stage of production including in binder storage tanks) to a 42 temperature higher than the maximum recommended by the manufacturer of 43 the WMA additive. 44 45 A maximum water content of 2 percent in the mix, at discharge, will be allowed 46 providing the water causes no problems with handling, stripping, or flushing. If 47 the water in the HMA causes any of these problems, reduce the moisture 48 content. 49 50 During the daily operation, HMA may be temporarily held in approved storage 51 facilities. Do not incorporate HMA into the Work that has been held for more 52


than 24 hours after mixing. Provide an easily readable, low bin-level indicator 1 on the storage facility that indicates the amount of material in storage. Waste 2 the HMA in storage when the top level of HMA drops below the top of the cone 3 of the storage facility, except as the storage facility is being emptied at the end 4 of the working shift. Dispose of rejected or waste HMA at no expense to the 5 Contracting Agency. 6 7 5-04.3(7) Spreading and Finishing 8 Do not exceed the maximum nominal compacted depth of any layer in any 9 course, as shown in Table 6, unless approved by the Engineer: 10 11

Table 6

12 Use HMA pavers complying with Section 5-04.3(3) to distribute the mix. On 13 areas where irregularities or unavoidable obstacles make the use of 14 mechanical spreading and finishing equipment impractical, the paving may be 15 done with other equipment or by hand. 16 17 When more than one JMF is being utilized to produce HMA, place the material 18 produced for each JMF with separate spreading and compacting equipment. 19 Do not intermingle HMA produced from more than one JMF. Each strip of HMA 20 placed during a work shift shall conform to a single JMF established for the 21 class of HMA specified unless there is a need to make an adjustment in the 22 JMF. 23 24 5-04.3(8) Aggregate Acceptance Prior to Incorporation in HMA 25 Sample aggregate for meeting the requirements of Section 3-04 prior to being 26 incorporated into HMA. (The acceptance data generated for the Section 3-04 27 acceptance analysis will not be commingled with the acceptance data 28 generated for the Section 5-04.3(9) acceptance analysis.) Aggregate 29 acceptance samples shall be taken as described in Section 3-04. Aggregate 30 acceptance testing will be performed by the Contracting Agency. Aggregate 31 contributed from RAP and/or RAS will not be evaluated under Section 3-04. 32 33 For aggregate that will be used in HMA mixture which will be accepted by 34 either Statistical or Nonstatistical Evaluation, the Contracting Agency’s 35 acceptance of the aggregate will be based on: 36 37

1. Samples taken prior to mixing with asphalt binder, RAP, or RAS; 38 39 2. Testing for the materials properties of fracture, uncompacted void 40

content, and sand equivalent; 41 42 3. Evaluation by the Contracting Agency in accordance with Section 3-43

04, including price adjustments as described therein. 44 45


For aggregate that will be used in HMA which will be accepted by Visual 1 Evaluation, evaluation in accordance with items 1, 2, and 3 above is at the 2 discretion of the Engineer. 3 4 5-04.3(9) HMA Mixture Acceptance 5 The Contracting Agency will evaluate HMA mixture for acceptance by one of 6 three methods as determined from the criteria in Table 7. 7 8

9 5-04.3(9)A Mixture Acceptance – Test Section 10 This Section applies to HMA mixture accepted by Statistical Evaluation 11 and mixture accepted by Nonstatistical Evaluation. A test section is not 12 allowed for HMA accepted by Visual Evaluation. 13 14 The purpose of a test section is to determine, at the beginning of paving, 15 whether or not the Contractor’s mix design and production processes will 16 produce HMA meeting the Contract requirements related to mixture. 17 18 Use Table 8 to determine when a test section is required, optional, or not 19 allowed, and to determine when test sections may end for an individual 20 mix design. Each mix design will be evaluated independently for the test 21 section requirements. 22 23 Construct HMA mixture test sections at the beginning of paving, using at 24 least 600 tons and a maximum of 1,000 tons or as approved by the 25 Engineer. Each test section shall be constructed in one continuous 26 operation. Each test section shall be considered a lot. The mixture in each 27


test section will be evaluated based on the criteria in Table 9 to determine 1 if test sections for that mix design may stop. 2 3 If more than one test section is required, each test section shall be 4 separately by the criteria in table 8 and 9. 5 6

1In addition to the requirements of this table, acceptance of the HMA mixture used in each test section is subject to the acceptance criteria and price adjustments for Statistical Evaluation or Non-statistical Evaluation (see Table 7).

2Divide the test section lot into three sublots, approximately equal in size. Take one sample from each sublot, and test each sample for all of the properties in the first column.

3Take one sample for each test section lot. Test the sample for all of the properties in the first column.

4Divide the test section lot into three sublots, approximately equal in size. Take one sample from each sublot, and test each sample for all of the properties in the first column. There are no criteria for discontinuing test sections for these mixes; however, the contractor must comply with Section 5-04.3(11)F before resuming paving.

1 5-04.3(9)B Mixture Acceptance – Statistical Evaluation 2

5-04.3(9)B1 Mixture Statistical Evaluation – Lots and Sublots 3 HMA mixture which is accepted by Statistical Evaluation will be 4 evaluated by the Contracting Agency dividing that HMA tonnage into 5 mixture lots, and each mixture lot will be evaluated using stratified 6 random sampling by the Contracting Agency sub-dividing each 7 mixture lot into mixture sublots. All mixture in a mixture lot shall be of 8 the same mix design. The mixture sublots will be numbered in the 9 order in which the mixture (of a particular mix design) is paved. 10 11 Each mixture lot comprises a maximum of 15 mixture sublots, except: 12 13

• The final mixture lot of each mix design on the Contract will 14 comprise a maximum of 25 sublots. 15

• A mixture lot for a test section, which will consist of the three 16 sublots and corresponding test results used in evaluating 17 the test section for gradation, asphalt binder, and Va. 18

19 Each mixture sublot shall be approximately uniform in size with the 20 maximum mixture sublot size as specified in Table 10. The quantity of 21 material represented by the final mixture sublot of the project, for 22 each mix design on the project, may be increased to a maximum of 23 two times the mixture sublot quantity calculated. Should a lot 24 accepted by statistical evaluation contain fewer than three sublots, 25 the HMA will be accepted in accordance with nonstatistical 26 evaluation. 27 28

2 The maximum sublot size for each combination of HMA class and binder grade shall be calculated separately.

1 • For a mixture lot in progress with a mixture CPF less than 2

0.75, a new mixture lot will begin at the Contractor’s request 3 after the Engineer is satisfied that material conforming to the 4 Specifications can be produced. See also Section 5-5 04.3(11)F. 6

7 • If, before completing a mixture lot, the Contractor requests a 8

change to the JMF which is approved by the Engineer, the 9 mixture produced in that lot after the approved change will 10 be evaluated on the basis of the changed JMF, and the 11 mixture produced in that lot before the approved change will 12 be evaluated on the basis of the unchanged JMF; however, 13 the mixture before and after the change will be evaluated in 14 the same lot. Acceptance of subsequent mixture lots will be 15 evaluated on the basis of the changed JMF. 16

17 5-04.3(9)B2 Mixture Statistical Evaluation – Sampling 18 Comply with Section 1-06.2(1). 19 20 Samples of HMA mixture which is accepted by Statistical Evaluation 21 will be randomly selected from within each sublot, with one sample 22 per sublot. The Engineer will determine the random sample location 23 using WSDOT Test Method T 716. The Contractor shall obtain the 24 sample when ordered by the Engineer. The Contractor shall sample 25 the HMA mixture in the presence of the Engineer and in accordance 26 with FOP for WAQTC T 168. 27 28 5-04.3(9)B3 Mixture Statistical Evaluation – Acceptance Testing 29 Comply with Section 1-06.2(1). 30 31 The Contracting Agency will test the mixture sample from each sublot 32 (including sublots in a test section) for the properties shown in Table 33 11. 34 35

5-04.3(9)B7 Mixture Statistical Evaluation – Retests 6 The Contractor may request that a mixture sublot be retested. To 7 request a retest, submit a written request to the Contracting Agency 8 within 7 calendar days after the specific test results have been posted 9 to the website or emailed to the Contractor, whichever occurs first. 10 The Contracting Agency will send a split of the original acceptance 11 sample for testing by the Contracting Agency to either the Region 12 Materials Laboratory or the State Materials Laboratory as determined 13 by the Engineer. The Contracting Agency will not test the split of the 14 sample with the same equipment or by the same tester that ran the 15 original acceptance test. The sample will be tested for a complete 16 gradation analysis, asphalt binder content, and Va, and the results of 17 the retest will be used for the acceptance of the HMA mixture in place 18 of the original mixture sublot sample test results. The cost of testing 19 will be deducted from any monies due or that may come due the 20 Contractor under the Contract at the rate of $250 per sample. 21 22

5-04.3(9)E Mixture Acceptance – Notification of Acceptance Test 2 Results 3 The results of all mixture acceptance testing and the Composite Pay 4 Factor (CPF) of the lot after three sublots have been tested will be 5 available to the Contractor through The Contracting Agency’s website. 6 7 The Contracting Agency will endeavor to provide written notification (via 8 email to the Contractor’s designee) of acceptance test results through its 9 web-based materials testing system Statistical Analysis of Materials 10 (SAM) within 24 hours of the sample being made available to the 11 Contracting Agency. However, the Contractor agrees: 12 13

1. Quality control, defined as the system used by the Contractor to 14 monitor, assess, and adjust its production processes to ensure 15 that the final HMA mixture will meet the specified level of quality, 16 is the sole responsibility of the Contractor. 17

18 2. The Contractor has no right to rely on any testing performed by 19

the Contracting Agency, nor does the Contractor have any right 20 to rely on timely notification by the Contracting Agency of the 21 Contracting Agency’s test results (or statistical analysis thereof), 22 for any part of quality control and/or for making changes or 23 correction to any aspect of the HMA mixture. 24

25 3. The Contractor shall make no claim for untimely notification by 26

the Contracting Agency of the Contracting Agency’s test results 27 or statistical analysis. 28

29 5-04.3(10) HMA Compaction Acceptance 30 For all HMA, the Contractor shall comply with the General Compaction 31 Requirements in Section 5-04.3(10)A. The Contracting Agency will evaluate all 32 HMA for compaction compliance with one of the following - Statistical 33 Evaluation, Visual Evaluation, or Test Point Evaluation - determined by the 34 criteria in Table 16: 35 36

“HMA for Pavement Repair…”

Any HMA not meeting the criteria for Statistical Evaluation or Visual Evaluation

1This table applies to all HMA, and shall be the sole basis for determining the acceptance method for compaction.

1 The Contracting Agency may, at its sole discretion, evaluate any HMA for 2 compliance with the Cyclic Density requirements of Section 5-04.3(10)B. 3 4

5-04.3(10)A HMA Compaction – General Compaction Requirements 5 Immediately after the HMA has been spread and struck off, and after 6 surface irregularities have been adjusted, thoroughly and uniformly 7 compact the mix. The completed course shall be free from ridges, ruts, 8 humps, depressions, objectionable marks, and irregularities and shall 9 conform to the line, grade, and cross-section shown in the Plans. If 10 necessary, alter the JMF in accordance with Section 9-03.8(7) to achieve 11 desired results. 12 13 Compact the mix when it is in the proper condition so that no undue 14 displacement, cracking, or shoving occurs. Compact areas inaccessible to 15 large compaction equipment by mechanical or hand tampers. Remove 16 HMA that becomes loose, broken, contaminated, shows an excess or 17 deficiency of asphalt, or is in any way defective. Replace the removed 18 material with new HMA, and compact it immediately to conform to the 19 surrounding area. 20 21 The type of rollers to be used and their relative position in the compaction 22 sequence shall generally be the Contractor’s option, provided the 23 specified densities are attained. An exception shall be that pneumatic tired 24 rollers shall be used for compaction of the wearing course beginning 25 October 1st of any year through March 31st of the following year. Coverage 26 with a steel wheel roller may precede pneumatic tired rolling. Unless 27 otherwise approved by the Engineer, operate rollers in the static mode 28 when the internal temperature of the mix is less than 175°F. Regardless of 29 mix temperature, do not operate a roller in a mode that results in checking 30 or cracking of the mat. 31 32 On bridge decks and on the five feet of roadway approach immediately 33 adjacent to the end of bridge/back of pavement seat, operate rollers in 34 static mode only. 35 36


5-04.3(10)B HMA Compaction – Cyclic Density 1 Low cyclic density areas are defined as spots or streaks in the pavement 2 that are less than 90 percent of the theoretical maximum density. At the 3 Engineer’s discretion, the Engineer may evaluate the HMA pavement for 4 low cyclic density, and when doing so will follow WSDOT SOP 733. A 5 $500 Cyclic Density Price Adjustment will be assessed for any 500-foot 6 section with two or more density readings below 90 percent of the 7 theoretical maximum density. 8 9 5-04.3(10)C HMA Compaction Acceptance – Statistical Evaluation 10 HMA compaction which is accepted by Statistical Evaluation will be based 11 on acceptance testing performed by the Contracting Agency, and 12 statistical analysis of those acceptance tests results. This will result in a 13 Compaction Price Adjustment. 14 15

5-04.3(10)C1 HMA Compaction Statistical Evaluation – Lots and 16 Sublots 17 HMA compaction which is accepted by Statistical Evaluation will be 18 evaluated by the Contracting Agency dividing the project into 19 compaction lots, and each compaction lot will be evaluated using 20 stratified random sampling by the Contracting Agency sub-dividing 21 each compaction lot into compaction sublots. All mixture in any 22 individual compaction lot shall be of the same mix design. The 23 compaction sublots will be numbered in the order in which the mixture 24 (of a particular mix design) is paved. 25 26 Each compaction lot comprises a maximum of 15 compaction sublots, 27 except for the final compaction lot of each mix design on the Contract, 28 which comprises a maximum of 25 sublots. 29 30 Each compaction sublot shall be uniform in size as shown in Table 31 17, except that the last compaction sublot of each day may be 32 increased to a maximum of two times the compaction sublot quantity 33 calculated. Minor variations in the size of any sublot shall not be 34 cause to invalidate the associated test result. 35 36

The following will cause one compaction lot to end prematurely and a 38 new compaction lot to begin: 39 40

• For a compaction lot in progress with a compaction CPF 41 less than 0.75, a new compaction lot will begin at the 42 Contractor’s request after the Engineer is satisfied that 43


material conforming to the Specifications can be produced. 1 See also Section 5-04.3(11)F. 2

3 5-04.3(10)C2 HMA Compaction Statistical Evaluation – 4 Acceptance Testing 5 Comply with Section 1-06.2(1). 6 7 The location of HMA compaction acceptance tests will be randomly 8 selected by the Contracting Agency from within each sublot, with one 9 test per sublot. The Contracting Agency will determine the random 10 sample location using WSDOT Test Method T 716. 11 12 Use Table 18 to determine compaction acceptance test procedures 13 and to allocate compaction acceptance sampling and testing 14 responsibilities between the Contractor and the Contracting Agency. 15 Roadway cores shall be taken or nuclear density testing shall occur 16 after completion of the finish rolling, prior to opening to traffic, and on 17 the same day that the mix is placed. 18 19

2The Contractor shall take the core samples in the presence of the Engineer, at locations designated by the Engineer, and deliver the core samples to the Contracting Agency.

3The Contracting Agency will determine, in its sole discretion, whether it will take cores or use the nuclear density gauge to determine in-place density. Exclusive reliance on cores for density acceptance is generally intended for small paving projects and is not intended as a replacement for nuclear gauge density testing on typical projects.

1 When using the nuclear density gauge for acceptance testing of 2 pavement density, the Engineer will follow WSDOT SOP 730 for 3 correlating the nuclear gauge with HMA cores. When cores are 4 required for the correlation, coring and testing will be by the 5 Contracting Agency. When a core is taken for gauge correlation at the 6 location of a sublot, the relative density of the core will be used for the 7 sublot test result and is exempt from retesting. 8 9 5-04.3(10)C3 HMA Statistical Compaction – Price Adjustments 10 For each HMA compaction lot (that is accepted by Statistical 11 Evaluation) which has less than three compaction sublots, for which 12 all compaction sublots attain a minimum of 91 percent compaction 13 determined in accordance with FOP for WAQTC TM 8 (or WSDOT 14 SOP 736 when provided by the Contract), the HMA will be accepted 15 at the unit Contract price with no further evaluation. 16 17 For each HMA compaction lot (that is accepted by Statistical 18 Evaluation) which does not meet the criteria in the preceding 19 paragraph, the compaction lot shall be evaluated in accordance with 20 Section 1-06.2(2) to determine the appropriate Compaction Price 21 Adjustment (CPA). All of the test results obtained from the 22 acceptance samples from a given compaction lot shall be evaluated 23 collectively. Additional testing by either a nuclear density gauge or 24 cores will be completed as required to provide a minimum of three 25 tests for evaluation. 26 27 For the statistical analysis in Section 1-06.2, use the following values: 28 29

x = Percent compaction of each sublot 30 USL = 100 31 LSL= 91 32 33

Each CPA will be determined as follows: 34 35

CPA = [0.40 x (CPF – 1.00)] x Q x UP 36 37 Where 38 39


CPA = Compaction Price Adjustment for the compaction lot 1 ($) 2

CPF = Composite Pay Factor for the compaction lot 3 (maximum is 1.05) 4

Q = Quantity in the compaction lot (tons) 5 UP = Unit price of the HMA in the compaction lot ($/ton) 6 7

5-04.3(10)C4 HMA Statistical Compaction – Requests for 8 Retesting 9 For a compaction sublot that has been tested with a nuclear density 10 gauge that did not meet the minimum of 91 percent of the theoretical 11 maximum density in a compaction lot with a CPF below 1.00 and thus 12 subject to a price reduction or rejection, the Contractor may request 13 that a core, taken at the same location as the nuclear density test, be 14 used for determination of the relative density of the compaction 15 sublot. The relative density of the core will replace the relative density 16 determined by the nuclear density gauge for the compaction sublot 17 and will be used for calculation of the CPF and acceptance of HMA 18 compaction lot. When cores are taken by the Contracting Agency at 19 the request of the Contractor, they shall be requested by noon of the 20 next workday after the test results for the compaction sublot have 21 been provided or made available to the Contractor. Traffic control 22 shall be provided by the Contractor as requested by the Engineer. 23 Failure by the Contractor to provide the requested traffic control will 24 result in forfeiture of the request for retesting. When the CPF for the 25 compaction lot based on the results of the cores is less than 1.00, the 26 Contracting Agency will deduct the cost for the coring from any 27 monies due or that may become due the Contractor under the 28 Contract at the rate of $200 per core and the Contractor shall pay for 29 the cost of the traffic control. 30 31

5-04.3(10)D HMA Compaction – Visual Evaluation 32 Visual Evaluation will be the basis of acceptance for compaction of the Bid 33 items “HMA for Pavement Repair Cl. ___ PG ___”and “HMA for 34 Prelevelling Class___ PG___”. This HMA shall be thoroughly compacted 35 to the satisfaction of the Engineer. HMA that is used to prelevel wheel 36 ruts shall be compacted with a pneumatic tire roller. 37 38 5-04.3(10)E HMA Compaction – Test Point Evaluation 39 When compaction acceptance is by Test Point Evaluation, compact HMA 40 based on a test point evaluation of the compaction train. Perform the test 41 point evaluation in accordance with instructions from the Engineer. The 42 number of passes with an approved compaction train, required to attain 43 the maximum test point density, shall be used on all subsequent paving. 44 45 5-04.3(10)F HMA Compaction Acceptance – Notification of 46 Acceptance Test Results 47 The obligations and responsibilities for notifying the Contractor of 48 compaction acceptance test results are the same as for mixture 49 acceptance test results. See Section 5-04.3(9)E. 50 51


5-04.3(11) Reject Work 1 This Section applies to HMA and all requirements related to HMA (except 2 aggregates prior to being incorporated into HMA). For rejection of aggregate 3 prior to its incorporation into HMA refer to Section 3-04. 4 5

5-04.3(11)A Reject Work – General 6 Work that is defective or does not conform to Contract requirements shall 7 be rejected. 8 9 5-04.3(11)B Rejection by Contractor 10 The Contractor may, prior to acceptance sampling and testing, elect to 11 remove any defective material and replace it with new material. Any such 12 new material will be sampled, tested, and evaluated for acceptance. 13 14 5-04.3(11)C Rejection Without Testing (Mixture or Compaction) 15 The Engineer may, without sampling, reject any batch, load, or section of 16 Roadway that appears defective. Material rejected before placement shall 17 not be incorporated into the pavement. 18 19 No payment will be made for the rejected materials or the removal of the 20 materials unless the Contractor requests the rejected material to be 21 tested. If the Contractor requests testing, acceptance will be by Statistical 22 Evaluation, and a minimum of three samples will be obtained and tested. 23 When uncompacted material is required for testing but not available, the 24 Engineer will determine random sample locations on the roadway in 25 accordance with WSDOT Test Method T 716, take cores in accordance 26 with WSDOT SOP 734, and test the cores in accordance with WSDOT 27 SOP 737. 28 29 If the CPF for the rejected material is less than 0.75, no payment will be 30 made for the rejected material; in addition, the cost of sampling and 31 testing shall be borne by the Contractor. If the CPF is greater than or 32 equal to 0.75, the cost of sampling and testing will be borne by the 33 Contracting Agency. If the material is rejected before placement and the 34 CPF is greater than or equal to 0.75, compensation for the rejected 35 material will be at a CPF of 0.75. If rejection occurs after placement and 36 the CPF is greater than or equal to 0.75, compensation for the rejected 37 material will be at the calculated CPF with an addition of 25 percent of the 38 unit Contract price added for the cost of removal and disposal. 39 40 5-04.3(11)D Rejection – A Partial Sublot (Mixture or Compaction) 41 In addition to the random acceptance sampling and testing, the Engineer 42 may also isolate from a mixture or compaction sublot any material that is 43 suspected of being defective in relative density, gradation or asphalt 44 binder content. Such isolated material will not include an original sample 45 location. The Contracting Agency will obtain a minimum of three random 46 samples of the suspect material and perform the testing. When 47 uncompacted material is required for testing but is not available, the 48 Engineer will select random sample locations on the roadway in 49 accordance with WSDOT Test Method T 716, take cores samples in 50 accordance with WSDOT SOP 734, and test the material in accordance 51


with WSDOT SOP 737. The material will then be statistically evaluated as 1 an independent lot in accordance with Section 1-06.2(2). 2 3 5-04.3(11)E Rejection – An Entire Sublot (Mixture or Compaction) 4 An entire mixture or compaction sublot that is suspected of being defective 5 may be rejected. When this occurs, a minimum of two additional random 6 samples from this sublot will be obtained. When uncompacted material is 7 required for the additional samples but the material has been compacted, 8 the Contracting Agency will take and test cores from the roadway as 9 described in Section 5-04.3(11)D. The additional samples and the original 10 sublot will be evaluated as an independent lot in accordance with Section 11 1-06.2(2). 12 13 5-04.3(11)F Rejection - A Lot in Progress (Mixture or Compaction) 14 The Contractor shall shut down operations and shall not resume HMA 15 placement until such time as the Engineer is satisfied that material 16 conforming to the Specifications can be produced when: 17 18

1. the Composite Pay Factor (CPF) of a mixture or compaction lot 19 in progress drops below 1.00 and the Contractor is taking no 20 corrective action, or 21

22 2. the Pay Factor (PFi) for any constituent of a mixture or 23

compaction lot in progress drops below 0.95 and the Contractor 24 is taking no corrective action, or 25

26 3. either the PFi for any constituent (or the CPF) of a mixture or 27

compaction lot in progress is less than 0.75. 28 29 5-04.3(11)G Rejection – An Entire Lot (Mixture or Compaction) 30 An entire lot with a CPF of less than 0.75 will be rejected. 31 32

5-04.3(12) Joints 33 5-04.3(12)A Transverse Joints 34 Conduct operations such that placement of the top or wearing course is a 35 continuous operation or as close to continuous as possible. Unscheduled 36 transverse joints will be allowed, but the roller may pass over the 37 unprotected end of the freshly laid HMA only when the placement of the 38 course is discontinued for such a length of time that the HMA will cool 39 below compaction temperature. When the Work is resumed, cut back the 40 previously compacted HMA to produce a slightly beveled edge for the full 41 thickness of the course. 42 43 Construct a temporary wedge of HMA on a 50H:1V where a transverse 44 joint as a result of paving or planing is open to traffic. Separate the HMA in 45 the temporary wedge from the permanent HMA upon which it is placed by 46 strips of heavy wrapping paper or other methods approved by the 47 Engineer. Remove the wrapping paper and trim the joint to a slightly 48 beveled edge for the full thickness of the course prior to resumption of 49 paving. 50 51


Waste the material that is cut away and place new HMA against the cut. 1 Use rollers or tamping irons to seal the joint. 2 3 5-04.3(12)B Longitudinal Joints 4 Offset the longitudinal joint in any one course from the course immediately 5 below by not more than 6 inches nor less than 2 inches. Locate all 6 longitudinal joints constructed in the wearing course at a lane line or an 7 edge line of the Traveled Way. Construct a notched wedge joint along all 8 longitudinal joints in the wearing surface of new HMA unless otherwise 9 approved by the Engineer. The notched wedge joint shall have a vertical 10 edge of not less than the maximum aggregate size nor more than ½ of the 11 compacted lift thickness, and then taper down on a slope not steeper than 12 4H:1V. Uniformly compact the sloped portion of the HMA notched wedge 13 joint. 14 15 On one-lane ramps a longitudinal joint may be constructed at the center of 16 the traffic lane, subject to approval by the Engineer, if: 17 18

1. The ramp must remain open to traffic, or 19 20 2. The ramp is closed to traffic and a hot-lap joint is constructed. 21 22

a. Two paving machines shall be used to construct the hot-lap 23 joint. 24

25 b. The pavement within 6 inches of the hot-lap joint will not be 26

excluded from random location selection for compaction 27 testing. 28

29 c. Construction equipment other than rollers shall not operate 30

on any uncompacted HMA. 31 32

When HMA is placed adjacent to cement concrete pavement, construct 33 longitudinal joints between the HMA and the cement concrete pavement. 34 Saw the joint to the dimensions shown on Standard Plan A-40.10 and fill 35 with joint sealant meeting the requirements of Section 9-04.2. 36 37

5-04.3(13) Surface Smoothness 38 The completed surface of all courses shall be of uniform texture, smooth, 39 uniform as to crown and grade, and free from defects of all kinds. The 40 completed surface of the wearing course shall not vary more than ⅛ inch from 41 the lower edge of a 10-foot straightedge placed on the surface parallel to the 42 centerline. The transverse slope of the completed surface of the wearing 43 course shall vary not more than ¼ inch in 10 feet from the rate of transverse 44 slope shown in the Plans. 45 46 When deviations in excess of the above tolerances are found that result from 47 a high place in the HMA, correct the pavement surface by one of the 48 following methods: 49 50

1. Remove material from high places by grinding with an approved 51 grinding machine, or 52


1 2. Remove and replace the wearing course of HMA, or 2 3 3. By other method approved by the Engineer. 4 5

Correct defects until there are no deviations anywhere greater than the 6 allowable tolerances. 7 8 Deviations in excess of the above tolerances that result from a low place in the 9 HMA and deviations resulting from a high place where corrective action, in the 10 opinion of the Engineer, will not produce satisfactory results will be accepted 11 with a price adjustment. The Engineer shall deduct from monies due or that 12 may become due to the Contractor the sum of $500.00 for each and every 13 section of single traffic lane 100 feet in length in which any excessive 14 deviations described above are found. 15 16 When portland cement concrete pavement is to be placed on HMA, the 17 surface tolerance of the HMA shall be such that no surface elevation lies 18 above the Plan grade minus the specified Plan depth of portland cement 19 concrete pavement. Prior to placing the portland cement concrete pavement, 20 bring any such irregularities to the required tolerance by grinding or other 21 means approved by the Engineer. 22 23 When utility appurtenances such as manhole covers and valve boxes are 24 located in the Traveled Way, pave the Roadway before the utility 25 appurtenances are adjusted to the finished grade. 26 27 5-04.3(14) Planing Bituminous Pavement 28 Plane in such a manner that the underlying pavement is not torn, broken, or 29 otherwise damaged by the planing operation. Delamination or raveling of the 30 underlying pavement will not be construed as damage due to the Contractor’s 31 operations. Pavement outside the limits shown in the Plans or designated by 32 the Engineer that is damaged by the Contractor’s operations shall be repaired 33 to the satisfaction of the Engineer at no additional cost to the Contracting 34 Agency. 35 36 For mainline planing operations, use equipment with automatic controls and 37 with sensors for either or both sides of the equipment. The controls shall be 38 capable of sensing the grade from an outside reference line, or a mat-39 referencing device. The automatic controls shall have a transverse slope 40 controller capable of maintaining the mandrel at the desired transverse slope 41 (expressed as a percentage) within plus or minus 0.1 percent. 42 43 Remove all loose debris from the planed surface before opening the planed 44 surface to traffic. The planings and other debris resulting from the planing 45 operation shall become the property of the Contractor and be disposed of in 46 accordance with Section 2-03.3(7)C, or as otherwise allowed by the Contract. 47 48 5-04.3(15) Sealing Pavement Surfaces 49 Apply a fog seal where shown in the Plans. Construct the fog seal in 50 accordance with Section 5-02.3. Unless otherwise approved by the Engineer, 51 apply the fog seal prior to opening to traffic. 52


1 5-04.3(16) HMA Road Approaches 2 Construct HMA approaches at the locations shown in the Plans or where 3 staked by the Engineer, in accordance with Section 5-04. 4

5 5-04.4 Measurement 6 HMA Cl. ___ PG ___, HMA for ___ Cl. ___ PG ___, and Commercial HMA will 7 be measured by the ton in accordance with Section 1-09.2, with no deduction being 8 made for the weight of asphalt binder, mineral filler, or any other component of the HMA. 9 If the Contractor elects to remove and replace HMA as allowed by Section 5-04.3(11), 10 the material removed will not be measured. 11 12 Roadway cores will be measured per each for the number of cores taken. 13 14 Crack Sealing-LF will be measured by the linear foot along the line of the crack. 15 16 Soil residual herbicide will be measured by the mile for the stated width to the nearest 17 0.01 mile or by the square yard, whichever is designated in the Proposal. 18 19 Pavement repair excavation will be measured by the square yard of surface marked 20 prior to excavation. 21 22 Asphalt for fog seal will be measured by the ton, as provided in Section 5-02.4. 23 24 Longitudinal joint seals between the HMA and cement concrete pavement will be 25 measured by the linear foot along the line and slope of the completed joint seal. 26 27 Planing bituminous pavement will be measured by the square yard. 28 29 Temporary pavement marking will be measured by the linear foot as provided in Section 30 8-23.4. 31 32 Water will be measured by the M gallon as provided in Section 2-07.4. 33

34 5-04.5 Payment 35 Payment will be made for each of the following Bid items that are included in the 36 Proposal: 37 38

10 The Contractor shall provide the Contracting Agency copies of any calculations and 11 staking data when requested by the Engineer. 12 13 To facilitate the establishment of these lines and elevations, the Contracting Agency will 14 provide the Contractor with primary survey control information consisting of descriptions 15 of two primary control points used for the horizontal and vertical control, and 16 descriptions of two additional primary control points for every additional three miles of 17 project length. Primary control points will be described by reference to the project 18 alignment and the coordinate system and elevation datum utilized by the project. In 19 addition, the Contracting Agency will supply horizontal coordinates for the beginning and 20 ending points and for each Point of Intersection (PI) on each alignment included in the 21 project. 22 23 The Contractor shall ensure a surveying accuracy within the following tolerances: 24

25 Vertical Horizontal 26 Slope stakes 0.10 feet 0.10 feet 27 Subgrade grade stakes set 28 0.04 feet below grade 0.01 feet 0.5 feet 29 (parallel to alignment) 30 0.1 feet 31 (normal to alignment) 32 33 Stationing on roadway N/A 0.1 feet 34 Alignment on roadway N/A 0.04 feet 35 Surfacing grade stakes 0.01 feet 0.5 feet 36 (parallel to alignment) 37 0.1 feet 38 (normal to alignment) 39 40 Roadway paving pins for 41 surfacing or paving 0.01 feet 0.2 feet 42

(parallel to alignment) 43 0.1 feet 44 (normal to alignment) 45 46

The Contracting Agency may spot-check the Contractor's surveying. These spot-47 checks will not change the requirements for normal checking by the Contractor. 48 49 When staking roadway alignment and stationing, the Contractor shall perform 50 independent checks from different secondary control to ensure that the points staked 51 are within the specified survey accuracy tolerances. 52


1 The Contractor shall calculate coordinates for the alignment. The Contracting Agency 2 will verify these coordinates prior to issuing approval to the Contractor for commencing 3 with the work. The Contracting Agency will require up to seven calendar days from the 4 date the data is received. 5 6 Contract work to be performed using contractor-provided stakes shall not begin until the 7 stakes are approved by the Contracting Agency. Such approval shall not relieve the 8 Contractor of responsibility for the accuracy of the stakes. 9

10 Stakes shall be marked in accordance with Standard Plan A10.10. When stakes are 11 needed that are not described in the Plans, then those stakes shall be marked, at no 12 additional cost to the Contracting Agency as ordered by the Engineer. 13 14 Payment 15

Payment will be made in accordance with Section 1-04.1 for the following bid item when 16 included in the proposal: 17 18

"Roadway and Utilities Surveying", lump sum. 19 20

Electronic data is available for the Contractor’s convenience upon request, this data is 27 informational only, and is not considered a part of the Contract, or these provisions. No 28 guarantee is made by the Contracting Agency that the electronic data if provided to the 29 Contractor is: 30 31

1. Compatible with any systems utilized by the Contractor; 32 2. Complete; 33 3. Representative of actual conditions at the project site; 34 4. Accurately reflects the quantities and character of the actual Work required. 35

36 Furnished electronic design data or documentation shall not relieve the Contractor from 37 any risks or of any duty to make examinations and investigations as required by Section 38 1-02.4 or any other responsibility under the Contract or as required by law. No 39 corrections, additions, or updates of any kind will be made to the electronic data that is 40 available to the Contractor. 41

42 1-05.7 Removal of Defective and Unauthorized Work 43



If the Contractor fails to remedy defective or unauthorized work within the time specified 47 in a written notice from the Engineer, or fails to perform any part of the work required by 48 the Contract Documents, the Engineer may correct and remedy such work as may be 49


identified in the written notice, with Contracting Agency forces or by such other means as 1 the Contracting Agency may deem necessary. 2 3 If the Contractor fails to comply with a written order to remedy what the Engineer 4 determines to be an emergency situation, the Engineer may have the defective and 5 unauthorized work corrected immediately, have the rejected work removed and replaced, 6 or have work the Contractor refuses to perform completed by using Contracting Agency 7 or other forces. An emergency situation is any situation when, in the opinion of the 8 Engineer, a delay in its remedy could be potentially unsafe, or might cause serious risk 9 of loss or damage to the public. 10 11 Direct or indirect costs incurred by the Contracting Agency attributable to correcting and 12 remedying defective or unauthorized work, or work the Contractor failed or refused to 13 perform, shall be paid by the Contractor. Payment will be deducted by the Engineer from 14 monies due, or to become due, the Contractor. Such direct and indirect costs shall 15 include in particular, but without limitation, compensation for additional professional 16 services required, and costs for repair and replacement of work of others destroyed or 17 damaged by correction, removal, or replacement of the Contractor’s unauthorized work. 18 19 No adjustment in contract time or compensation will be allowed because of the delay in 20 the performance of the work attributable to the exercise of the Contracting Agency’s 21 rights provided by this Section. 22 23 The rights exercised under the provisions of this section shall not diminish the 24 Contracting Agency’s right to pursue any other avenue for additional remedy or damages 25 with respect to the Contractor’s failure to perform the work as required. 26 27

1-05.11 Final Inspection 28


1-05.11 Final Inspections and Operational Testing 31


1-05.11(1) Substantial Completion Date 33

When the Contractor considers the work to be substantially complete, the Contractor 34 shall so notify the Engineer and request the Engineer establish the Substantial 35 Completion Date. The Contractor’s request shall list the specific items of work that 36 remain to be completed in order to reach physical completion. The Engineer will 37 schedule an inspection of the work with the Contractor to determine the status of 38 completion. The Engineer may also establish the Substantial Completion Date 39 unilaterally. 40 41 If, after this inspection, the Engineer concurs with the Contractor that the work is 42 substantially complete and ready for its intended use, the Engineer, by written notice to 43 the Contractor, will set the Substantial Completion Date. If, after this inspection the 44 Engineer does not consider the work substantially complete and ready for its intended 45 use, the Engineer will, by written notice, so notify the Contractor giving the reasons 46 therefor. 47 48 Upon receipt of written notice concurring in or denying substantial completion, whichever 49 is applicable, the Contractor shall pursue vigorously, diligently and without unauthorized 50


interruption, the work necessary to reach Substantial and Physical Completion. The 1 Contractor shall provide the Engineer with a revised schedule indicating when the 2 Contractor expects to reach substantial and physical completion of the work. 3 4 The above process shall be repeated until the Engineer establishes the Substantial 5 Completion Date and the Contractor considers the work physically complete and ready 6 for final inspection. 7 8 1-05.11(2) Final Inspection and Physical Completion Date 9

When the Contractor considers the work physically complete and ready for final 10 inspection, the Contractor by written notice, shall request the Engineer to schedule a 11 final inspection. The Engineer will set a date for final inspection. The Engineer and the 12 Contractor will then make a final inspection and the Engineer will notify the Contractor in 13 writing of all particulars in which the final inspection reveals the work incomplete or 14 unacceptable. The Contractor shall immediately take such corrective measures as are 15 necessary to remedy the listed deficiencies. Corrective work shall be pursued vigorously, 16 diligently, and without interruption until physical completion of the listed deficiencies. This 17 process will continue until the Engineer is satisfied the listed deficiencies have been 18 corrected. 19 20 If action to correct the listed deficiencies is not initiated within 7 days after receipt of the 21 written notice listing the deficiencies, the Engineer may, upon written notice to the 22 Contractor, take whatever steps are necessary to correct those deficiencies pursuant to 23 Section 1-05.7. 24 The Contractor will not be allowed an extension of contract time because of a delay in 25 the performance of the work attributable to the exercise of the Engineer’s right 26 hereunder. 27 28 Upon correction of all deficiencies, the Engineer will notify the Contractor and the 29 Contracting Agency, in writing, of the date upon which the work was considered 30 physically complete. That date shall constitute the Physical Completion Date of the 31 contract, but shall not imply acceptance of the work or that all the obligations of the 32 Contractor under the contract have been fulfilled. 33 34 1-05.11(3) Operational Testing 35

It is the intent of the Contracting Agency to have at the Physical Completion Date a 36 complete and operable system. Therefore when the work involves the installation of 37 machinery or other mechanical equipment; street lighting, electrical distribution or signal 38 systems; irrigation systems; buildings; or other similar work it may be desirable for the 39 Engineer to have the Contractor operate and test the work for a period of time after final 40 inspection but prior to the physical completion date. Whenever items of work are listed in 41 the Contract Provisions for operational testing they shall be fully tested under operating 42 conditions for the time period specified to ensure their acceptability prior to the Physical 43 Completion Date. During and following the test period, the Contractor shall correct any 44 items of workmanship, materials, or equipment which prove faulty, or that are not in first 45 class operating condition. Equipment, electrical controls, meters, or other devices and 46 equipment to be tested during this period shall be tested under the observation of the 47 Engineer, so that the Engineer may determine their suitability for the purpose for which 48 they were installed. The Physical Completion Date cannot be established until testing 49 and corrections have been completed to the satisfaction of the Engineer. 50 51


The costs for power, gas, labor, material, supplies, and everything else needed to 1 successfully complete operational testing, shall be included in the unit contract prices 2 related to the system being tested, unless specifically set forth otherwise in the proposal. 3 4 Operational and test periods, when required by the Engineer, shall not affect a 5 manufacturer’s guaranties or warranties furnished under the terms of the contract. 6

1.06 Control of Material 2

Section 1-06 is supplemented with the following: 3 4

Buy America 5

(August 6, 2012) 6

In accordance with Buy America requirements contained in 23 CFR 635.410, the major 7 quantities of steel and iron construction material that is permanently incorporated into 8 the project shall consist of American-made materials only. Buy America does not apply 9 to temporary steel items, e.g., temporary sheet piling, temporary bridges, steel 10 scaffolding and falsework. 11 12 Minor amounts of foreign steel and iron may be utilized in this project provided the cost 13 of the foreign material used does not exceed one-tenth of one percent of the total 14 contract cost or $2,500.00, whichever is greater. 15 16 American-made material is defined as material having all manufacturing processes 17 occurring domestically. To further define the coverage, a domestic product is a 18 manufactured steel material that was produced in one of the 50 States, the District of 19 Columbia, Puerto Rico, or in the territories and possessions of the United States. 20 21 If domestically produced steel billets or iron ingots are exported outside of the area of 22 coverage, as defined above, for any manufacturing process then the resulting product 23 does not conform to the Buy America requirements. Additionally, products 24 manufactured domestically from foreign source steel billets or iron ingots do not 25 conform to the Buy America requirements because the initial melting and mixing of 26 alloys to create the material occurred in a foreign country. 27 28 Manufacturing begins with the initial melting and mixing, and continues through the 29 coating stage. Any process which modifies the chemical content, the physical size or 30 shape, or the final finish is considered a manufacturing process. The processes include 31 rolling, extruding, machining, bending, grinding, drilling, welding, and coating. The action 32 of applying a coating to steel or iron is deemed a manufacturing process. Coating 33 includes epoxy coating, galvanizing, aluminizing, painting, and any other coating that 34 protects or enhances the value of steel or iron. Any process from the original reduction 35 from ore to the finished product constitutes a manufacturing process for iron. 36 37 Due to a nationwide waiver, Buy America does not apply to raw materials (iron ore and 38 alloys), scrap (recycled steel or iron), and pig iron or processed, pelletized, and reduced 39 iron ore. 40 41


The following are considered to be steel manufacturing processes: 1 2

1. Production of steel by any of the following processes: 3 4

a. Open hearth furnace. 5 6 b. Basic oxygen. 7 8 c. Electric furnace. 9 10 d. Direct reduction. 11 12

2. Rolling, heat treating, and any other similar processing. 13 14 3. Fabrication of the products. 15 16

a. Spinning wire into cable or strand. 17 18 b. Corrugating and rolling into culverts. 19 20 c. Shop fabrication. 21 22

A certification of materials origin will be required for any items comprised of, or 23 containing, steel or iron construction materials prior to such items being incorporated 24 into the permanent work. The certification shall be on DOT Form 350-109EF provided 25 by the Engineer, or such other form the Contractor chooses, provided it contains the 26 same information as DOT Form 350-109EF. 27

1-07.1 Laws to be Observed 2


Supplement this section with the following: 4 5 In cases of conflict between different safety regulations, the more stringent regulation 6 shall apply. 7 8 The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries shall be the sole and 9 paramount administrative agency responsible for the administration of the provisions of 10 the Washington Industrial Safety and Health Act of 1973 (WISHA). 11 12 The Contractor shall maintain at the project site office, or other well known place at the 13 project site, all articles necessary for providing first aid to the injured. The Contractor 14 shall establish, publish, and make known to all employees, procedures for ensuring 15 immediate removal to a hospital, or doctor’s care, persons, including employees, who 16 may have been injured on the project site. Employees should not be permitted to work 17 on the project site before the Contractor has established and made known procedures 18 for removal of injured persons to a hospital or a doctor’s care. 19 20 The Contractor shall have sole responsibility for the safety, efficiency, and adequacy of 21 the Contractor’s plant, appliances, and methods, and for any damage or injury resulting 22 from their failure, or improper maintenance, use, or operation. The Contractor shall be 23 solely and completely responsible for the conditions of the project site, including safety 24 for all persons and property in the performance of the work. This requirement shall apply 25 continuously, and not be limited to normal working hours. The required or implied duty of 26 the Engineer to conduct construction review of the Contractor’s performance does not, 27 and shall not, be intended to include review and adequacy of the Contractor’s safety 28 measures in, on, or near the project site. 29 30

1-07.2 State Taxes 31

Delete this section, including its sub-sections, in its entirety and replace it with the following: 32 33

1-07.2 State Sales Tax 34


The Washington State Department of Revenue has issued special rules on the State 36 sales tax. Sections 1-07.2(1) through 1-07.2(3) are meant to clarify those rules. The 37 Contractor should contact the Washington State Department of Revenue for answers to 38 questions in this area. The Contracting Agency will not adjust its payment if the 39 Contractor bases a bid on a misunderstood tax liability. 40 41 The Contractor shall include all Contractor-paid taxes in the unit bid prices or other 42 contract amounts. In some cases, however, state retail sales tax will not be included. 43 Section 1-07.2(2) describes this exception. 44 45 The Contracting Agency will pay the retained percentage (or release the Contract Bond if 46 a FHWA-funded Project) only if the Contractor has obtained from the Washington State 47 Department of Revenue a certificate showing that all contract-related taxes have been 48 paid (RCW 60.28.051). The Contracting Agency may deduct from its payments to the 49


Contractor any amount the Contractor may owe the Washington State Department of 1 Revenue, whether the amount owed relates to this contract or not. Any amount so 2 deducted will be paid into the proper State fund. 3 4 1-07.2(1) State Sales Tax — Rule 171 5

WAC 458-20-171, and its related rules, apply to building, repairing, or improving streets, 6 roads, etc., which are owned by a municipal corporation, or political subdivision of the 7 state, or by the United States, and which are used primarily for foot or vehicular traffic. 8 This includes storm or combined sewer systems within and included as a part of the 9 street or road drainage system and power lines when such are part of the roadway 10 lighting system. For work performed in such cases, the Contractor shall include 11 Washington State Retail Sales Taxes in the various unit bid item prices, or other contract 12 amounts, including those that the Contractor pays on the purchase of the materials, 13 equipment, or supplies used or consumed in doing the work. 14 15 1-07.2(2) State Sales Tax — Rule 170 16

WAC 458-20-170, and its related rules, apply to the constructing and repairing of new or 17 existing buildings, or other structures, upon real property. This includes, but is not 18 limited to, the construction of streets, roads, highways, etc., owned by the state of 19 Washington; water mains and their appurtenances; sanitary sewers and sewage 20 disposal systems unless such sewers and disposal systems are within, and a part of, a 21 street or road drainage system; telephone, telegraph, electrical power distribution lines, 22 or other conduits or lines in or above streets or roads, unless such power lines become a 23 part of a street or road lighting system; and installing or attaching of any article of 24 tangible personal property in or to real property, whether or not such personal property 25 becomes a part of the realty by virtue of installation. 26 27 For work performed in such cases, the Contractor shall collect from the Contracting 28 Agency, retail sales tax on the full contract price. The Contracting Agency will 29 automatically add this sales tax to each payment to the Contractor. For this reason, the 30 Contractor shall not include the retail sales tax in the unit bid item prices, or in any other 31 contract amount subject to Rule 170, with the following exception. 32 33 Exception: The Contracting Agency will not add in sales tax for a payment the Contractor 34 or a subcontractor makes on the purchase or rental of tools, machinery, equipment, or 35 consumable supplies not integrated into the project. Such sales taxes shall be included 36 in the unit bid item prices or in any other contract amount. 37 38 1-07.2(3) Services 39

The Contractor shall not collect retail sales tax from the Contracting Agency on any 40 contract wholly for professional or other services (as defined in Washington State 41 Department of Revenue Rules 138 and 244). 42

WA Cowlitz; WA Klickitat; WA Skamania; WA Wahkiakum. 31 32 These goals are applicable to each nonexempt Contractor’s total on-site 33 construction workforce, regardless of whether or not part of that workforce is 34 performing work on a Federal, or federally assisted project, contract, or subcontract 35 until further notice. Compliance with these goals and time tables is enforced by the 36 Office of Federal Contract compliance Programs. 37 38 The Contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 39 CFR Part 60-4 shall be based on its implementation of the Equal Opportunity 40 Clause, specific affirmative action obligations required by the specifications set 41 forth in 41 CFR 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to meet the goals. The hours of minority 42 and female employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the 43 length of the contract, in each construction craft and in each trade, and the 44 Contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on 45 each of its projects. The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from 46 Contractor to Contractor or from project to project for the sole purpose of meeting 47 the Contractor's goal shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order and 48 the regulations in 41 CFR Part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured 49 against the total work hours performed. 50

51


3. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Office of Federal Contract 1 Compliance Programs (OFCCP) within 10 working days of award of any 2 construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 or more that are Federally funded, at 3 any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The 4 notification shall list the name, address and telephone number of the 5 Subcontractor; employer identification number of the Subcontractor; estimated 6 dollar amount of the subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the 7 subcontract; and the geographical area in which the contract is to be performed. 8 The notification shall be sent to: 9

21 4. As used in this Notice, and in the contract resulting from this solicitation, the 22

Covered Area is as designated herein. 23 24 Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications 25 (Executive Order 11246) 26 27 1. As used in these specifications: 28 29

a. Covered Area means the geographical area described in the solicitation 30 from which this contract resulted; 31

32 b. Director means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, 33

United States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director 34 delegates authority; 35

36 c. Employer Identification Number means the Federal Social Security 37

number used on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U. S. 38 Treasury Department Form 941; 39

40 d. Minority includes: 41 42

(1) Black, a person having origins in any of the Black Racial Groups 43 of Africa. 44

45 (2) Hispanic, a fluent Spanish speaking, Spanish surnamed person 46

of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central American, South 47 American, or other Spanish origin. 48

49 (3) Asian or Pacific Islander, a person having origins in any of the 50

original peoples of the Pacific rim or the Pacific Islands, the 51 Hawaiian Islands and Samoa. 52


1 (4) American Indian or Alaskan Native, a person having origins in 2

any of the original peoples of North America, and who maintain 3 cultural identification through tribal affiliation or community 4 recognition. 5

6 2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion 7

of the work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each 8 subcontract in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the 9 Notice which contains the applicable goals for minority and female participation and 10 which is set forth in the solicitations from which this contract resulted. 11

12 3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60-4.5) in a Hometown Plan 13

approved by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered area either individually 14 or through an association, its affirmative action obligations on all work in the Plan 15 area (including goals and timetables) shall be in accordance with that Plan for 16 those trades which have unions participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able 17 to demonstrate their participation in and compliance with the provisions of any such 18 Hometown Plan. Each Contractor or Subcontractor participating in an approved 19 Plan is individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause, 20 and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in each trade in 21 which it has employees. The overall good faith performance by other Contractors 22 or Subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan does not excuse any covered 23 Contractor's or Subcontractor's failure to take good faith effort to achieve the Plan 24 goals and timetables. 25

26 4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in 27

paragraphs 7a through 7p of this Special Provision. The goals set forth in the 28 solicitation from which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the 29 total hours of employment and training of minority and female utilization the 30 Contractor should reasonably be able to achieve in each construction trade in 31 which it has employees in the covered area. Covered construction contractors 32 performing construction work in geographical areas where they do not have a 33 Federal or federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and 34 female goals established for the geographical area where the work is being 35 performed. The Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress in 36 meeting its goals in each craft during the period specified. 37

38 5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a 39

union with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer 40 either minorities or women shall excuse the Contractor's obligations under these 41 specifications, Executive Order 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant 42 thereto. 43

44 6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted 45

in meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the 46 Contractor during the training period, and the Contractor must have made a 47 commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their 48 training, subject to the availability of employment opportunities. Trainees must be 49 trained pursuant to training programs approved by the U.S. Department of Labor. 50

51


7. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment 1 opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these 2 specifications shall be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its 3 action. The Contractor shall document these efforts fully, and shall implement 4 affirmative action steps at least as extensive as the following: 5

6 a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, 7

intimidation, and coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the 8 Contractor's employees are assigned to work. The Contractor, where 9 possible, will assign two or more women to each construction project. The 10 Contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen, superintendents, and 11 other on-site supervisory personnel are aware of and carry out the 12 Contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment, with 13 specific attention to minority or female individuals working at such sites or 14 in such facilities. 15

16 b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment 17

sources, provide written notification to minority and female recruitment 18 sources and to community organizations when the Contractor or its unions 19 have employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the 20 organizations' responses. 21

22 c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of 23

each minority and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female 24 referral from a union, a recruitment source or community organization and 25 of what action was taken with respect to each such individual. If such 26 individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred 27 back to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not employed by the 28 Contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason therefor, 29 along with whatever additional actions the Contractor may have taken. 30

31 d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or 32

unions with which the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement 33 has not referred to the Contractor a minority person or woman sent by the 34 Contractor, or when the Contractor has other information that the union 35 referral process has impeded the Contractor's efforts to meet its 36 obligations. 37

38 e. Develop on-the-job training opportunity and/or participate in training 39

programs for the area which expressly include minorities and women, 40 including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs 41 relevant to the Contractor's employment needs, especially those programs 42 funded or approved by the U.S. Department of Labor. The Contractor 43 shall provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under 7b 44 above. 45

46 f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy 47

to unions and training programs and requesting their cooperation in 48 assisting the Contractor in meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in 49 any policy manual and collective bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in 50 the company newspaper, annual report, etc.; by specific review of the 51 policy with all management personnel and with all minority and female 52


employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy 1 on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where 2 construction work is performed. 3

4 g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action 5

obligations under these specifications with all employees having any 6 responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other 7 employment decisions including specific review of these items with on-site 8 supervisory personnel such as Superintendents, General Foremen, etc., 9 prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A written record 10 shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these 11 meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of 12 the subject matter. 13

14 h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any 15

advertising in the news media, specifically including minority and female 16 news media, and providing written notification to and discussing the 17 Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors and Subcontractors with 18 whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing business. 19

20 i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written to minority, female and 21

community organizations, to schools with minority and female students 22 and to minority and female recruitment and training organizations serving 23 the Contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not later than 24 one month prior to the date for the acceptance of applications for 25 apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the Contractor 26 shall send written notification to organizations such as the above, 27 describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in 28 the selection process. 29

30 j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other 31

minority persons and women and where reasonable, provide after school, 32 summer and vacation employment to minority and female youth both on 33 the site and in other areas of a Contractor's work force. 34

35 k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an 36

obligation to do so under 41 CFR Part 60-3. 37 38 l. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation of all minority and 39

female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these 40 employees to seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., 41 such opportunities. 42

43 m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments and 44

other personnel practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by 45 continually monitoring all personnel and employment related activities to 46 ensure that the EEO policy and the Contractor's obligations under these 47 specifications are being carried out. 48

49 n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated except 50

that separate or single-user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall 51 be provided to assure privacy between the sexes. 52


1 o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for 2

subcontracts from minority and female construction contractors and 3 suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female 4 contractor associations and other business associations. 5

6 p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and 7

performance under the Contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action 8 obligations. 9

10 8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in 11

fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations (7a through 7p). The 12 efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union, contractor-community, or 13 other similar group of which the Contractor is a member and participant, may be 14 asserted as fulfilling any one or more of the obligations under 7a through 7p of this 15 Special Provision provided that the Contractor actively participates in the group, 16 makes every effort to assure that the group has a positive impact on the 17 employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensure that the concrete 18 benefits of the program are reflected in the Contractor's minority and female work-19 force participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and 20 timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrate the 21 effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the Contractor. The obligation to 22 comply, however, is the Contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an 23 obligation shall not be a defense for the Contractor's noncompliance. 24

25 9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been 26

established. The Contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment 27 opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and 28 female, and all women, both minority and non-minority. Consequently, the 29 Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is 30 employed in substantially disparate manner (for example, even though the 31 Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the Contractor may be in 32 violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is 33 underutilized). 34

35 10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action 36

standards to discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, 37 or national origin. 38

39 11. The Contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm 40

debarred from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246. 41 42 12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these 43

specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspensions, 44 terminations and cancellations of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or 45 ordered pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing 46 regulations by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any 47 Contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall be in violation 48 of these specifications and Executive Order 11246, as amended. 49

50 13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall 51

implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those 52


standards prescribed in paragraph 7 of this Special Provision, so as to achieve 1 maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the 2 Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of the Executive Order, the 3 implementing regulations, or these specifications, the Director shall proceed in 4 accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8. 5

6 14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment 7

related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to 8 submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the 9 government and to keep records. Records shall at least include, for each 10 employee, their name, address, telephone numbers, construction trade, union 11 affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned, social security 12 number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice, trainee, helper, or laborer), 13 dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of 14 pay, and locations at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained 15 in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that 16 existing records satisfy this requirement, the Contractors will not be required to 17 maintain separate records. 18

19 15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of 20

other laws which establish different standards of compliance or upon the 21 application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those 22 under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development 23 Block Grant Program). 24

39 (December 8, 2014 APWA GSP, Option B) 40

Supplement this section with the following: 41 42 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Condition of Award Participation 43

The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 apply 44 to this Contract. Demonstrating compliance with these specifications is a Condition of 45 Award (COA) of this Contract. Failure to comply with the requirements of this 46 specification may result in your bid being found to be nonresponsive and may be 47 rejected. 48 49


DBE COA Goal 1

The Contracting Agency has established a COA Contract goal in the amount of: 5 2 percent (5%) of the contract total for COA DBE goals. 3 4 DBE Eligibility/Selection of DBEs 5

A Directory of Certified DBE Firms denoting the Description of Work the DBE 6 Contractors are certified to perform is available at: 7 8

www.omwbe.wa.gov/certification/index.shtml. 9 10

The directory provides plain language on the Description of Work that the listed 11 DBE’s have been certified by the Office of Minority and Women’s Business 12 Enterprises (OMWBE) to perform. The Bidder shall use the Directory of 13 Certified DBE Firms to confirm if a DBE is certified for the “Description of 14 Work” the Bidder lists on the DBE Utilization Certification form # 272-056 EF 15 (see form instructions) and therefore qualifies for credit towards the COA goal. 16 17

Crediting DBE Participation 18

Joint Venture 19

When a DBE performs as a participant in a joint venture, only that portion of 20 the total dollar value of the Contract equal to the distinct, clearly defined 21 portion of the Work that the DBE performs with its own forces shall be credited. 22 23 DBE Prime Contractor 24

A DBE Prime Contractor may only take credit for that portion of the total dollar 25 value of the Contract equal to the distinct, clearly defined portion of the Work 26 that the DBE Prime performs with its own forces. 27

28 DBE Subcontractor 29

When a DBE firm participates as a Subcontractor only that portion of the total 30 dollar value of the Contract equal to the distinct, clearly defined portion of the 31 Work that the DBE performs with its own forces shall be credited. 32 33

Include the cost of supplies and materials obtained by the DBE for the 34 Work in the Contract including supplies purchased or equipment leased 35 by the DBE. 36

▪ However, you may not take credit for supplies, materials, and 37 equipment the DBE Subcontractor purchases or leases from the 38 Prime Contractor or its affiliate. In addition, Work performed by a 39 DBE, utilizing resources of the Prime Contractor or its affiliates 40 shall not be credited. 41 42

In very rare situations, a DBE firm may utilize equipment and/or 43 personnel from a non-DBE firm other than the Prime Contractor or its 44 affiliates. Should this situation arise the arrangement must be short-45 term and have prior written approval from the Office of Equal 46 Opportunity (OEO). 47 48


Count the entire value of fees or commissions charged by a DBE firm 1 for providing a bona fide service, such as professional, technical, 2 consultant, managerial services, or for providing bonds or insurance. 3 4

When a DBE subcontracts to another firm, the value of the 5 subcontracted Work may be counted as participation only if the DBE's 6 lower tier Subcontractor is also a DBE. Work that a DBE subcontracts 7 to a non-DBE firm shall not be credited. 8

9 10

When non-DBE Subcontractor further subcontracts to a lower-tier 11 Subcontractor or supplier who is a certified DBE, then that portion of 12 the Work further subcontracted may be credited as DBE participation, 13 provided it is a distinct clearly defined portion of the Work that the DBE 14 is certified to perform and the DBE Subcontractor performs the Work 15 with its own forces. 16

17 If a firm is not certified as a DBE at the time of the execution of the 18

contract, their participation cannot be counted toward any DBE goals. 19 20 Trucking 21

Use the following factors in determining DBE credit and whether a DBE 22 trucking company is performing a commercially useful function: 23 24

1. The DBE must be responsible for the management and supervision of 25 the entire trucking operation for which credit is being claimed. 26

27 2. The DBE must itself own and, with its own workforce, operate at least 28

one fully licensed, insured, and operational truck used on the 29 Contract. 30

31 3. The DBE receives credit only for the value of the transportation 32

services it provides on the Contract using trucks it owns or leases, 33 licenses, insures, and operates with drivers it employs. For purposes 34 of this requirement a lease must indicate that the DBE has exclusive 35 use of and control over the truck. This does not preclude the leased 36 truck from working for others provided it is with the consent of the 37 DBE and the lease provides the DBE first priority for use of the leased 38 truck. Leased trucks must display the name and identification number 39 of the DBE. 40

41 4. The DBE may lease trucks from another DBE firm including an 42

owner-operator provided they are certified as a DBE for trucking. The 43 DBE who leases trucks from another DBE may claim participation for 44 the total value of the transportation services the lessee DBE provides 45 on the Contract. 46

47 5. The DBE may also lease trucks from a non-DBE firm and may enter 48

into an agreement with an owner-operator who is a non-DBE. The 49 DBE shall only receive credit for the number of additional non-DBE 50 trucks equal or less than the number of DBE trucks the firms owns or 51


has leased/subcontracted through another DBE trucking company. 1 The DBE must control the work of the non-DBE trucks. If the non-2 DBE is performing the work without supervision of that work by the 3 DBE, the DBE is not performing a Commercially Useful Function 4 (CUF). 5

6 6. In any lease or owner-operator situation, as described in requirement 7

#4 and #5 above, the following rules shall apply: 8 9

a. A written lease/rental agreement is required for all trucks 10 leased or rented; documenting the ownership and the terms 11 of the agreement. The agreements must be submitted and 12 approved by the Contracting Agency prior to the beginning 13 of the Work. The agreement must show the leaser’s name, 14 truck description and agreed upon amount and method of 15 payment (hour, ton, or per load). All lease agreements shall 16 be for a long-term relationship, rather than for the individual 17 project. (This requirement does not apply to owner-operator 18 arrangements.) 19

20 b. Only the vehicle, (not the operator) may be leased or rented. 21

(This requirement does not apply to owner-operator 22 arrangements). 23

24 7. Credit may only be claimed for DBE trucking firms operating under a 25

subcontract or a written agreement approved by the Contracting 26 Agency prior to performing Work. 27

28 Expenditures paid to other DBEs 29

Expenditures paid to other DBEs for materials or supplies may be counted 30 toward DBE goals as provided in the following: 31 32

Manufacturer 33

You may claim DBE credit for 100 percent of value of the materials or 34 supplies obtained from a DBE manufacturer. 35 36 A manufacturer is a firm that operates or maintains a factory or 37 establishment that produces, on the premises, the materials, supplies, 38 articles, or equipment required under the contract. A manufacturer shall 39 include firms that produce finished goods or products from raw or 40 unfinished material or that purchases and substantially alters goods and 41 materials to make them suitable for construction use before reselling 42 them. 43 44 In order to receive credit as a DBE Manufacturer, the firm must be certified 45 by OMWBE as a manufacturer in a NAICS code that falls within the 46 31XXXX to 33XXXX classification. 47 48


Regular Dealer 1

You may claim credit for 60 percent of the value of the materials or 2 supplies purchased from a DBE regular dealer. Rules applicable to 3 regular dealer status are contained in 49 CFR Part 26.55.e.2. 4

5 To be considered a regular dealer you must meet the following criteria: 6

7 WSDOT considers and recognizes a regular dealer, as a firm that 8

owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other 9 establishment in which the materials or supplies required for the 10 performance of the Contract and described by the specifications of 11 the Contract are bought, kept in stock and regularly sold or leased 12 to the public in the usual course of business. 13

14 Sixty percent (60%) of the cost of materials or supplies purchased 15

from an approved regular dealer may be credited as DBE 16 participation. 17

18 Regular dealer status is granted on a contract-by-contract basis. A firm 19 wishing to be approved as a regular dealer for WSDOT contracted 20 projects or Highways & Local Program administered projects must submit 21 a request in writing to OEO for approval, no later than seven days prior to 22 bid opening. 23 24 Once the OEO has received the request, an onsite review will be set up 25 with the firm and a review conducted to determine the firm’s qualifications. 26 If it is determined that the firm qualifies as a regular dealer the OEO will 27 list the firm on an Approved Regular Dealers List. The list may be 28 accessed through the OEO Home website is at: 29

30 www.wsdot.wa.gov/equalopportunity. 31

32 Note: Requests to be listed as a regular dealer will only be processed if 33

the requesting firm is certified by the Office of Minority and 34 Women’s Business Enterprises in a NAICS code that fall within 35 the 42XXXX NAICS Wholesale code section. 36

37 Materials or Supplies Purchased from a DBE 38

With regard to materials or supplies purchased from a DBE who is neither 39 a manufacturer nor a regular dealer you may claim credit for the following: 40

41 1. Fees or commissions charged for assistance in the procurement 42

of the materials and supplies. 43 44 2. Fees or transportation charges for the delivery of materials or 45

supplies. 46 47

In either case you may not take credit for any part of the cost of the 48 materials and supplies. 49

50


Commercially Useful Function (CUF) 1

The Prime Contractor has a responsibility and must treat the working 2 relationship with the DBE such that the DBE is performing a commercially 3 useful function. The Prime Contractor may only take credit for Work performed 4 by a DBE that is determined to be performing a commercially useful function. 5 6 A DBE performs a commercially useful function when it is responsible for 7

execution of a distinct element of Work and is carrying out its 8 responsibilities by performing, managing and supervising the Work 9 involved. The DBE must also be responsible with respect to materials and 10 supplies used on the Contract. For example; negotiating price, 11 determining quality, determining quantities, ordering, installing (if 12 applicable) and paying for the material itself. 13 14

A DBE does not perform a commercially useful function if its role is limited 15 to that of an extra participant in a transaction, Contract, or project through 16 which funds are passed. 17

18 19

Joint Checking Allowance 20

Prime Contractors and DBEs must receive pre-approval by the OEO before 21 using a joint check. Joint check requests shall be submitted by the Prime 22 Contractor to the Contracting Agency for approval. 23

24 When requesting approval for use of a joint checking allowance, the Contractor 25 must distribute a written joint check agreement among the parties (including 26 the suppliers involved) providing full and prompt disclosure of the expected 27 use of the joint checks. The agreement shall contain all the information 28 concerning the parties’ obligations and consequences or remedies if the 29 agreement is not fulfilled or a breach occurs. The joint check request shall be 30 submitted to the Contracting Agency for approval prior to signing the contract 31 agreement. 32

33 The following are some general conditions that must be met by all parties 34 regarding joint check use: 35

36 a. It is understood that the Prime Contractor acts solely as the guarantor 37

of a joint check. 38 39 b. The DBE’s own funds are used to pay supplier of materials. The 40

Prime Contractor does not make direct payment to supplier. In order 41 to be performing a Commercially Useful Function (CUF), the DBE 42 must release the check to the supplier (paying for the materials it-self 43 and not be an extra participant in a transaction). 44

45 c. If the Prime Contractor makes joint checks available to one DBE 46

Subcontractor, the service must be made available to all 47 Subcontractors (DBE and non-DBE). 48

49 d. The relationship between the DBE and its suppliers should be 50

established independently of and without interference by the Prime 51


Contractor. The DBE has final decision-making responsibility 1 concerning the procurement of materials and supplies, including 2 which supplier to use. 3

4 e. The Prime Contractor and DBE shall be able to provide receipts, 5

invoices, cancelled checks and/or certification statements of payment 6 if requested by the Contracting Agency. 7

f. The DBE remains responsible for all other elements of 49 CFR 8 26.55(c)(1). 9

10 Failure by the Prime Contractor to request and receive prior approval of a joint 11 check arrangement will result in the joint check amount not counting towards 12 the Prime Contractor’s DBE goal. 13 14 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification FORM # 272-15 056 EF 16

To be eligible for award of the Contract, the Bidder shall properly complete and 17 submit a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification with the 18 Bidder’s sealed Bid Proposal, as specified Section 1-02.9 Delivery of Proposal. 19 The Bidder’s Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification must 20 clearly demonstrate how the Bidder intends to meet the DBE COA goal. A 21 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification (form # 272-056 22 EF) is included in your Proposal package for this purpose as well as 23 instructions on how to properly fill out the form. 24 25 In the event of arithmetic errors in completing the Disadvantaged Business 26 Enterprise Utilization Certification the amount listed to be applied towards the 27 goal for each DBE shall govern and the DBE total amount shall be adjusted 28 accordingly. 29 30 Note: The Contracting Agency shall consider as non-responsive and shall 31

reject any Bid Proposal submitted that does not contain a 32 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification that 33 accurately demonstrates how the Bidder intends to meet the COA 34 goal. 35

36 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Written Confirmation 37 Document(s) FORM # 422-031 EF 38

The Bidder shall submit a complete and accurate Disadvantaged Business 39 Enterprise (DBE) Written Confirmation Document for each DBE firm listed in 40 the Bidder’s completed Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization 41 Certification as submitted with the bid. Failure to do so will result in the 42 associated participation being disallowed, which may result in bid rejection. 43 44 A Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Written Confirmation Document 45 (form No. 422-031 EF) is included in your Proposal package for this purpose. 46 47 The form(s) shall be received as specified in the special provisions for Section 48 1-02.9 Delivery of Proposal. 49 50


It is prohibited for the Bidder to require a DBE to submit a Written Confirmation 1 Document with any part of the form left blank. Should the Contracting Agency 2 determine that a Written Confirmation Document was signed by a DBE that 3 was not complete; the validity of the document comes into question and the 4 associated DBE Participation may not receive credit. 5 6 Selection of Successful Bidder/Good Faith Efforts (GFE) 7

The successful Bidder shall be selected on the basis of having submitted the 8 lowest responsive Bid, which demonstrates a good faith effort to achieve the 9 DBE COA goal. Achieving the goal may be accomplished in one of two ways, 10 as follows: 11 12

1. By meeting the goal 13 The best indication of good faith efforts is to document, through 14 submission of the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization 15 Certification and supporting Disadvantaged Business Enterprise 16 (DBE) Written Confirmation Document(s) that the Bidder has obtained 17 enough DBE participation to meet or exceed the assigned DBE COA 18 contract goal. That being the case no additional GFE documentation is 19 required. Or; 20 21

2. By documentation that it made adequate GFE to meet the goal 22 The Bidder may demonstrate a GFE in whole or part through GFE 23 documentation ONLY IN THE EVENT a Bidder’s efforts to solicit 24 sufficient DBE participation have been unsuccessful. In this case, the 25 Bidder must supply GFE documentation in addition to the 26 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification, and 27 supporting Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Written 28 Confirmation document(s). 29

30 Note: In the case where the Bidder was awarded the contract based on 31

demonstrating adequate GFE the advertised DBE goal will not be 32 reduced to the Bidder’s partial commitment. The Bidder shall 33 demonstrate a GFE during the life of the Contract to attain the DBE 34 Condition of Award (COA) Goal as assigned to the project. 35

36 Good Faith Efforts (GFE) Documentation 37

GFE documentation shall be received, as specified in the special provisions for 38 Section 1-02.9 Delivery of Proposal. 39 40 Based upon all the relevant documentation submitted in Bid or as supplement 41 to Bid, the Contracting Agency shall determine whether the Bidder has 42 demonstrated a sufficient GFE to achieve DBE participation. The Contracting 43 Agency will make a fair and reasonable judgment of whether a Bidder that did 44 not meet the goal through participation, made adequate good faith efforts as 45 demonstrated by the GFE documentation. 46 47 The following is a list of types of actions, which would be considered as part of 48 the Bidder’s GFE to achieve DBE participation. It is not intended to be a 49 mandatory checklist, nor is it intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. Other 50 factors or types of efforts may be relevant in appropriate cases: 51


1 1. Attendance by the Bidder at any pre-solicitation or pre-Bid meetings 2

that were scheduled by the Contracting Agency to inform DBEs of 3 contracting and subcontracting or material supply opportunities 4 available on the project; 5

2. Contacting local Tribes, Tribal Employment Rights Offices (TERO) 6 concerning the subcontracting or supply opportunities in sufficient 7 time to allow the enterprises to participate effectively; 8

3. Selection by the Bidder of specific economically feasible units of the 9 project to be performed by DBEs in order to increase the likelihood of 10 participation by DBEs even if the Bidder preferred to perform these 11 Work items as the Prime Contractor; 12

13 4. Advertising by the Bidder in general circulation, trade association 14

minority and trade oriented, women focus publications, concerning 15 the subcontracting or supply opportunities; 16

17 5. Providing written notice from the Bidder to a reasonable number of 18

specific DBEs, identified from the OMWBE Directory of Certified DBE 19 Firms for the selected subcontracting or material supply Work, in 20 sufficient time to allow the enterprises to participate effectively; 21

22 6. Follow-up by the Bidder of initial solicitations of interest by contacting 23

the DBEs to determine with certainty whether they were interested. 24 Documentation of this kind of action shall include the information 25 outlined below: 26

27 a. The names, addresses, telephone numbers of DBEs who were 28

contacted, the dates of initial contact, and whether initial 29 solicitations of interest were followed-up by contacting the DBEs 30 to determine with certainty whether the DBEs were interested; 31

32 b. A description of the information provided to the DBEs regarding 33

the plans, specifications, and estimated quantities for portions of 34 the Work to be performed; 35

36 c. Documentation of each DBE contacted but rejected and the 37

reason(s) for that rejection; 38 39

7. Providing, to interested DBEs, adequate information about the plans, 40 specifications, and requirements for the selected subcontracting or 41 material supply Work; 42

43 8. Negotiating in good faith with the DBE firms, and not, without 44

justifiable reason, rejecting as unsatisfactory, Bids that are prepared 45 by any DBE. The DBE's standing within its industry, membership in 46 specific groups, organizations, or associations and political or social 47 affiliations - union vs. non-union employee status - are not legitimate 48 causes for the rejection or non-solicitation of bids in the Prime 49 Contractor's efforts to meet the project goal; 50

51


9. Advertising and making efforts to obtain DBE participation that were 1 reasonably expected to produce a level of participation sufficient to 2 meet the goal or requirements of the Contracting Agency; 3

4 10. Making any other efforts to obtain DBE participation that were 5

reasonably expected to produce a level of participation sufficient to 6 meet the goal or requirements of the Contracting Agency; 7

8 11. Using the services of minority community organizations, minority 9

contractor groups, local, State, and federal minority business 10 assistance offices and other organizations identified by WSDOT and 11 advocates for disadvantaged, minority, and women businesses that 12 provide assistance in the recruitment and placement of 13 disadvantaged, minority, and women business enterprises; and 14

15 12. Using the WSDOT OEO DBE Supportive Services to assist you. For 16

more information please contact the OEO by calling toll free at (888) 17 259-9143 or emailing [email protected]. 18

19 Administrative Reconsideration of GFE Documentation 20

Any Bidder has the right to reconsideration but only for the purpose of 21 reassessing their GFE documentation that was determined to be inadequate. 22 23

The Bidder must request and schedule a reconsideration hearing 24 within seven calendar days of notification of being nonresponsive or 25 forfeit the right to reconsideration. 26

27 The reconsideration decision on the adequacy of the Bidder’s GFE 28

documentation shall be made by an official who did not take part in the 29 original determination. 30

31 The Bidder shall have the opportunity to meet in person with the 32

official for the purpose of setting forth the Bidder’s position as to why 33 the GFE documentation demonstrates a sufficient effort. 34

35 The reconsideration official shall provide the Bidder with a written 36

decision on reconsideration within five business days of the hearing 37 explaining the basis for their finding. 38

39 Procedures between Award and Execution 40

After Award and prior to Execution the Bidder shall provide the additional 41 information described below. Failure to comply shall result in the forfeiture of 42 the Bidder’s Proposal bond or deposit. 43 44

1. Additional information for all successful DBE’s as shown on the 45 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification: 46

47 a. Correct business name, federal employee identification number 48

(if available), and mailing address. 49 50


b. List of all Bid items assigned to each successful DBE firm, 1 including unit prices and extensions. 2

3 c. Description of partial items (if any) to be sublet to each 4

successful DBE firm specifying the distinct elements of Work 5 under each item to be performed by the DBE and including the 6 dollar value of the DBE portion. 7

8 Total amounts shown for each DBE shall not be less than the 9 amount shown on the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise 10 Utilization Certification. A breakdown that does not conform to 11 the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization Certification or 12 that demonstrates a lesser amount of DBE participation than that 13 included in the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Utilization 14 Certification will be returned for correction. 15

16 2. A list of all firms who submitted a Bid or quote in an attempt to 17

participate in this project whether they were successful or not. 18 Include the business name and a mailing address. 19

20 Note: The firms identified by the Prime Contractor may be contacted by the 21

Contracting Agency to solicit general information as follows: age of 22 the firm and average of its gross annual receipts over the past three-23 years. 24

25 Procedures after Execution 26

Crediting DBE Participation toward Meeting the Goal 27

Reporting 28

All DBE work whether COA or race neutral participation is reported. 29 The Prime Contractor shall submit a Quarterly Report of Amounts 30 Credited as DBE Participation form (422-102 EF) on a quarterly basis 31 for any calendar quarter in which DBE has accomplished Work or 32 upon completion of the project, as appropriate. The dollars are to be 33 reported as specified herein. 34 35 In the event that the payments to a DBE have been made by an entity 36 other than the Prime Contractor, as in the case of a lower-tier 37 Subcontractor or supplier, then the Prime Contractor shall obtain the 38 quarterly report, including the signed affidavit, from the paying entity 39 and submit the report to the Contracting Agency. 40

41 Changes in DBE COA participation 42

Owner initiated Change Orders 43

The Prime Contractor shall demonstrate a GFE to substitute COA DBE 44 participation when the Contracting Agency deletes Work items by change 45 order that impact a COA DBE’s Work. 46 47 When the Contract allows alternate Work methods which serve to delete 48 or create under-runs in COA DBE Work then the Prime Contractor must 49 provide documentation of negotiating the change with the DBE that was to 50


perform the reduced Work and demonstrate a GFE to substitute other 1 DBE COA participation. 2

3 Original Quantity Under runs 4

In the event that Work committed to a DBE firm as part of the COA under 5 runs the original planned quantities the Prime Contractor shall 6 demonstrate a GFE to substitute other DBE COA participation. 7

8 Contractor-Initiated Proposals—General 9

The Contractor cannot reduce the amount of work committed to a DBE 10 firm at contract award without good cause and only with written 11 concurrence from the OEO. Reducing a COA DBE’s Work is viewed as a 12 partial DBE termination, subject to the procedures below. 13 14 DBE Termination 15

A COA DBE Subcontractor may only be terminated in whole or part with 16 the approval of the Contracting Agency (in coordination with OEO). 17 Approval will be granted provided the Prime Contractor demonstrates that 18 the termination is based on good cause. 19 20 Good cause typically includes situations where the DBE Subcontractor is 21 unable or has failed to perform the work of its subcontract in accordance 22 with normal industry standards. While not all inclusive, some examples of 23 good cause include the following circumstances: 24 25

Good cause may exist if: 26 27

The listed DBE Subcontractor fails or refuses to execute a 28 written contract. 29 30

The listed DBE Subcontractor fails or refuses to perform the 31 work of its subcontract in a way consistent with normal 32 industry standards. 33

34 The listed DBE Subcontractor fails or refuses to meet the 35

Prime Contractor’s reasonable, nondiscriminatory bond 36 requirements. 37

38 The listed DBE Subcontractor becomes bankrupt, insolvent, 39

or exhibits credit unworthiness. 40 41

The listed DBE Subcontractor is ineligible to work on public 42 works projects because of suspension and debarment 43 proceedings pursuant 2 CFR Parts 180, 215 and 1,200 or 44 applicable state law. 45

46 The listed DBE Subcontractor voluntarily withdraws from the 47

project and provides to you written notice of its withdrawal. 48 49


The listed DBE is ineligible to receive DBE credit for the type 1 of work required. 2

3 A DBE owner dies or becomes disabled with the result that 4

the listed DBE is unable to complete its work on the contract. 5 6 Good cause does not exist if: 7 8

The Prime Contractor seeks to terminate a COA DBE so that 9 the Prime can self-perform the Work. 10 11

The Prime Contractor seeks to terminate a COA DBE so the 12 Prime Contractor can substitute another DBE or non-DBE 13 after contract award. 14 15

The failure or refusal of the DBE Subcontractor to perform its 16 work on the subcontract results from the bad faith or 17 discriminatory action of the Prime Contractor (e.g., the failure 18 of the Prime Contractor to make timely payments or the 19 unnecessary placing of obstacles in the path of the DBE’s 20 Work). 21

22 Prior to requesting termination, the Prime Contractor must give notice in 23 writing to the DBE Subcontractor with a copy to the Contracting Agency of 24 its intent to request to terminate DBE work and the reasons for doing so. 25 The DBE Subcontractor shall have five (5) days to respond to the prime 26 Contractor’s notice. The DBE’s response shall either support the 27 termination or advise the Contracting Agency and the Prime Contractor of 28 the reasons it objects to the termination of its subcontract. 29 30 When a COA DBE firm is “terminated” from a Contract (or fails to complete 31 its Subcontract for any reason), the Prime Contractor shall make every 32 good faith effort to substitute another DBE Firm (ref.to 49 CFR 26.53(g)). 33 34 Graduation 35

When a DBE firm “graduates” from the DBE program (during the course of 36 an executed subcontract), the DBE participation of that firm “may” 37 continue to count towards the contract DBE goal. 38 39 Decertification 40

When a COA DBE firm who has a signed subcontract in place with a 41 Prime, later becomes “decertified” (during the course of that subcontract) 42 – the DBE participation of that firm “may” continue to count towards the 43 Contract DBE goal. 44 45 Counting payments 46

Payments to a DBE firm will count toward DBE goals only if the 47 participation is in accordance with these specifications. 48

49


Prompt Payment 1

Prompt payment to all Subcontractors shall be in accordance with Section 2 1-08.1(1) of these Contract special provisions. 3 4 Payment 5

Compensation for all costs involved with complying with the conditions of 6 this specification and any other associated DBE requirements is included 7 in payment for the associated Contract items of Work. 8

9 Damages for Noncompliance 10

The Prime Contractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, 11 national origin, or sex in the performance of this Contract. The Prime 12 Contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in 13 the award and administration of Contracts, which contain funding 14 assistance from the United States Department of Transportation. Failure 15 by the Prime Contractor to carry out these requirements is a material 16 breach of this Contract, which may result in the Termination of this 17 Contract or such other remedy as the Contracting Agency deems 18 appropriate. 19 20 If the Prime Contractor does not comply with any part of its Contract as 21 required under 49 CFR part 26, and/or any other applicable law or 22 regulation regarding DBE, the Contracting Agency may withhold payment, 23 suspend the ability of the Prime Contractor to participate in future 24 Contracting Agency contracts, impose sanctions or Terminate the 25 Contract, and subject the Prime Contractor to civil penalties of up to ten 26 percent of the amount of the Contract for each violation. In the case of 27 WSDOT Contracts, prequalification may be suspended pursuant to WAC 28 468-16-180, and continuous violations (exceeding a single violation) may 29 also disqualify the Prime Contractor from further participation in WSDOT 30 Contracts for a period of up to three years. 31 32 An apparent low Bidder must be in compliance with these Contract 33 Provisions as a condition precedent to the granting of a notice of award by 34 the Contracting Agency. The Prime Contractor is entitled to request an 35 adjudicative proceeding with respect to the Contracting Agency’s 36 determination of Contract violation and assessed penalties by filing a 37 written application within thirty days of receipt of notification. The 38 adjudicative proceeding, if requested, will be conducted by an 39 administrative law judge pursuant to the procedures set forth in RCW 40 34.05 and Chapter 10.08 of the Washington Administrative Code. 41

Claims-20 made form coverage shall be maintained by the Contractor for a minimum of 36 months 21 following the Completion Date or earlier termination of this Contract, and the Contractor 22 shall annually provide the Contracting Agency with proof of renewal. If renewal of the 23 claims made form of coverage becomes unavailable, or economically prohibitive, the 24 Contractor shall purchase an extended reporting period (“tail”) or execute another form of 25 guarantee acceptable to the Contracting Agency to assure financial responsibility for 26 liability for services performed. 27

28 D. The Contractor’s Automobile Liability, Commercial General Liability and Excess or 29

Umbrella Liability insurance policies shall be primary and non-contributory insurance as 30 respects the Contracting Agency’s insurance, self-insurance, or self-insured pool 31 coverage.

50


H. All costs for insurance shall be incidental to and included in the unit or lump sum prices 1 of the Contract and no additional payment will be made. 2

3 1-07.18(2) Additional Insured 4

volunteers 10 Varela and Associates, Inc. 11

12 The above-listed entities shall be additional insured(s) for the full available limits of liability 13 maintained by the Contractor, irrespective of whether such limits maintained by the 14 Contractor are greater than those required by this Contract, and irrespective of whether the 15 Certificate of Insurance provided by the Contractor pursuant to 1-07.18(4) describes limits 16 lower than those maintained by the Contractor. 17 18 For Commercial General Liability insurance coverage, the required additional insured 19 endorsements shall be at least as broad as ISO forms CG 20 10 10 01 for ongoing 20 operations and CG 20 37 10 01 for completed operations. 21 22 1-07.18(3) Subcontractors 23

The Contractor shall cause each Subcontractor of every tier to provide insurance coverage 24 that complies with all applicable requirements of the Contractor-provided insurance as set 25 forth herein, except the Contractor shall have sole responsibility for determining the limits of 26 coverage required to be obtained by Subcontractors. 27 28 The Contractor shall ensure that all Subcontractors of every tier add all entities listed in 29 1-07.18(2) as additional insureds, and provide proof of such on the policies as required by 30 that section as detailed in 1-07.18(2) using an endorsement as least as broad as ISO CG 20 31 10 10 01 for ongoing operations and CG 20 37 10 01 for completed operations. 32 33 Upon request by the Contracting Agency, the Contractor shall forward to the Contracting 34 Agency evidence of insurance and copies of the additional insured endorsements of each 35 Subcontractor of every tier as required in 1-07.18(4) Verification of Coverage. 36 37 1-07.18(4) Verification of Coverage 38

The Contractor shall deliver to the Contracting Agency a Certificate(s) of Insurance and 39 endorsements for each policy of insurance meeting the requirements set forth herein when 40 the Contractor delivers the signed Contract for the work. Failure of Contracting Agency to 41 demand such verification of coverage with these insurance requirements or failure of 42 Contracting Agency to identify a deficiency from the insurance documentation provided shall 43 not be construed as a waiver of Contractor’s obligation to maintain such insurance. 44 45 Verification of coverage shall include: 46

1. An ACORD certificate or a form determined by the Contracting Agency to be equivalent. 47

2. Copies of all endorsements naming Contracting Agency and all other entities listed in 48 1-07.18(2) as additional insured(s), showing the policy number. The Contractor may 49


submit a copy of any blanket additional insured clause from its policies instead of a 1 separate endorsement. 2

4. A notation of coverage enhancements on the Certificate of Insurance shall not satisfy 4 these requirements – actual endorsements must be submitted. 5

6 Upon request by the Contracting Agency, the Contractor shall forward to the Contracting 7 Agency a full and certified copy of the insurance policy(s). If Builders Risk insurance is 8 required on this Project, a full and certified copy of that policy is required when the 9 Contractor delivers the signed Contract for the work. 10 11 1-07.18(5) Coverages and Limits 12

The insurance shall provide the minimum coverages and limits set forth below. Contractor’s 13 maintenance of insurance, its scope of coverage, and limits as required herein shall not be 14 construed to limit the liability of the Contractor to the coverage provided by such insurance, 15 or otherwise limit the Contracting Agency’s recourse to any remedy available at law or in 16 equity. 17 18 All deductibles and self-insured retentions must be disclosed and are subject to approval by 19 the Contracting Agency. The cost of any claim payments falling within the deductible or self-20 insured retention shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. In the event an additional 21 insured incurs a liability subject to any policy’s deductibles or self-insured retention, said 22 deductibles or self-insured retention shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. 23 24 1-07.18(5)A Commercial General Liability 25

Commercial General Liability insurance shall be written on coverage forms at least as broad 26 as ISO occurrence form CG 00 01, including but not limited to liability arising from premises, 27 operations, stop gap liability, independent contractors, products-completed operations, 28 personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an insured contract.

10 1-07.24 Rights of Way 11



Street Right of Way lines, limits of easements, and limits of construction permits are 15 indicated in the Plans. The Contractor’s construction activities shall be confined within 16 these limits, unless arrangements for use of private property are made. 17 18 Generally, the Contracting Agency will have obtained, prior to bid opening, all rights of 19 way and easements, both permanent and temporary, necessary for carrying out the 20 work. Exceptions to this are noted in the Bid Documents or will be brought to the 21 Contractor’s attention by a duly issued Addendum. 22 23 Whenever any of the work is accomplished on or through property other than public 24 Right of Way, the Contractor shall meet and fulfill all covenants and stipulations of any 25 easement agreement obtained by the Contracting Agency from the owner of the private 26 property. Copies of the easement agreements may be included in the Contract 27 Provisions or made available to the Contractor as soon as practical after they have been 28 obtained by the Engineer. 29 30 Whenever easements or rights of entry have not been acquired prior to advertising, 31 these areas are so noted in the Plans. The Contractor shall not proceed with any portion 32 of the work in areas where right of way, easements or rights of entry have not been 33 acquired until the Engineer certifies to the Contractor that the right of way or easement is 34 available or that the right of entry has been received. If the Contractor is delayed due to 35 acts of omission on the part of the Contracting Agency in obtaining easements, rights of 36 entry or right of way, the Contractor will be entitled to an extension of time. The 37 Contractor agrees that such delay shall not be a breach of contract. 38 39 Each property owner shall be given 48 hours’ notice prior to entry by the Contractor. 40 This includes entry onto easements and private property where private improvements 41 must be adjusted. 42 43 The Contractor shall be responsible for providing, without expense or liability to the 44 Contracting Agency, any additional land and access thereto that the Contractor may 45 desire for temporary construction facilities, storage of materials, or other Contractor 46 needs. However, before using any private property, whether adjoining the work or not, 47 the Contractor shall file with the Engineer a written permission of the private property 48 owner, and, upon vacating the premises, a written release from the property owner of 49 each property disturbed or otherwise interfered with by reasons of construction pursued 50


under this contract. The statement shall be signed by the private property owner, or 1 proper authority acting for the owner of the private property affected, stating that 2 permission has been granted to use the property and all necessary permits have been 3 obtained or, in the case of a release, that the restoration of the property has been 4 satisfactorily accomplished.

Revise the third and fourth paragraphs to read: 10 11

Contract time shall begin on the first working day following the Notice to Proceed Date. 12 13 Each working day shall be charged to the contract as it occurs, until the contract work is 14 physically complete. If substantial completion has been granted and all the authorized 15 working days have been used, charging of working days will cease. Each week the 16 Engineer will provide the Contractor a statement that shows the number of working days: 17 (1) charged to the contract the week before; (2) specified for the physical completion of 18 the contract; and (3) remaining for the physical completion of the contract. The 19 statement will also show the nonworking days and any partial or whole day the Engineer 20 declares as unworkable. Within 10 calendar days after the date of each statement, the 21 Contractor shall file a written protest of any alleged discrepancies in it. To be considered 22 by the Engineer, the protest shall be in sufficient detail to enable the Engineer to 23 ascertain the basis and amount of time disputed. By not filing such detailed protest in 24 that period, the Contractor shall be deemed as having accepted the statement as 25 correct. If the Contractor is approved to work 10 hours a day and 4 days a week (a 4-10 26 schedule) and the fifth day of the week in which a 4-10 shift is worked would ordinarily be 27 charged as a working day then the fifth day of that week will be charged as a working 28 day whether or not the Contractor works on that day. 29

Employment and Materials Preference for Appalachian Development Highway System or Appalachian Local Access Road Contracts (included in Appalachian contracts only) I. GENERAL 1. Form FHWA-1273 must be physically incorporated in each construction contract funded under Title 23 (excluding emergency contracts solely intended for debris removal). The contractor (or subcontractor) must insert this form in each subcontract and further require its inclusion in all lower tier subcontracts (excluding purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services). The applicable requirements of Form FHWA-1273 are incorporated by reference for work done under any purchase order, rental agreement or agreement for other services. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor, lower-tier subcontractor or service provider. Form FHWA-1273 must be included in all Federal-aid design-build contracts, in all subcontracts and in lower tier subcontracts (excluding subcontracts for design services, purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services). The design-builder shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor, lower-tier subcontractor or service provider. Contracting agencies may reference Form FHWA-1273 in bid proposal or request for proposal documents, however, the Form FHWA-1273 must be physically incorporated (not referenced) in all contracts, subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (excluding purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services related to a construction contract). 2. Subject to the applicability criteria noted in the following sections, these contract provisions shall apply to all work performed on the contract by the contractor's own organization and with

2

the assistance of workers under the contractor's immediate superintendence and to all work performed on the contract by piecework, station work, or by subcontract. 3. A breach of any of the stipulations contained in these Required Contract Provisions may be sufficient grounds for withholding of progress payments, withholding of final payment, termination of the contract, suspension / debarment or any other action determined to be appropriate by the contracting agency and FHWA. 4. Selection of Labor: During the performance of this contract, the contractor shall not use convict labor for any purpose within the limits of a construction project on a Federal-aid highway unless it is labor performed by convicts who are on parole, supervised release, or probation. The term Federal-aid highway does not include roadways functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors. II. NONDISCRIMINATION The provisions of this section related to 23 CFR Part 230 are applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related construction subcontracts of $10,000 or more. The provisions of 23 CFR Part 230 are not applicable to material supply, engineering, or architectural service contracts. In addition, the contractor and all subcontractors must comply with the following policies: Executive Order 11246, 41 CFR 60, 29 CFR 1625-1627, Title 23 USC Section 140, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 USC 794), Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26 and 27; and 23 CFR Parts 200, 230, and 633. The contractor and all subcontractors must comply with: the requirements of the Equal Opportunity Clause in 41 CFR 60-1.4(b) and, for all construction contracts exceeding $10,000, the Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications in 41 CFR 60-4.3. Note: The U.S. Department of Labor has exclusive authority to determine compliance with Executive Order 11246 and the policies of the Secretary of Labor including 41 CFR 60, and 29 CFR 1625-1627. The contracting agency and the FHWA have the authority and the responsibility to ensure compliance with Title 23 USC Section 140, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 USC 794), and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26 and 27; and 23 CFR Parts 200, 230, and 633. The following provision is adopted from 23 CFR 230, Appendix A, with appropriate revisions to conform to the U.S. Department of Labor (US DOL) and FHWA requirements. 1. Equal Employment Opportunity: Equal employment opportunity (EEO) requirements not to discriminate and to take affirmative action to assure equal opportunity as set forth under laws, executive orders, rules, regulations (28 CFR 35, 29 CFR 1630, 29 CFR 1625-1627, 41 CFR 60 and 49 CFR 27) and orders of the Secretary of Labor as modified by the provisions prescribed herein, and imposed pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 140 shall constitute the EEO and specific affirmative action standards for the contractor's project activities under this contract. The provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR 35 and 29 CFR 1630 are incorporated by reference in this contract. In the execution of this

3

contract, the contractor agrees to comply with the following minimum specific requirement activities of EEO:

a. The contractor will work with the contracting agency and the Federal Government to ensure that it has made every good faith effort to provide equal opportunity with respect to all of its terms and conditions of employment and in their review of activities under the contract. b. The contractor will accept as its operating policy the following statement:

"It is the policy of this Company to assure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, religion, sex, color, national origin, age or disability. Such action shall include: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship, pre-apprenticeship, and/or on-the-job training."

2. EEO Officer: The contractor will designate and make known to the contracting officers an EEO Officer who will have the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively administering and promoting an active EEO program and who must be assigned adequate authority and responsibility to do so. 3. Dissemination of Policy: All members of the contractor's staff who are authorized to hire, supervise, promote, and discharge employees, or who recommend such action, or who are substantially involved in such action, will be made fully cognizant of, and will implement, the contractor's EEO policy and contractual responsibilities to provide EEO in each grade and classification of employment. To ensure that the above agreement will be met, the following actions will be taken as a minimum:

a. Periodic meetings of supervisory and personnel office employees will be conducted before the start of work and then not less often than once every six months, at which time the contractor's EEO policy and its implementation will be reviewed and explained. The meetings will be conducted by the EEO Officer.

b. All new supervisory or personnel office employees will be given a thorough indoctrination by the EEO Officer, covering all major aspects of the contractor's EEO obligations within thirty days following their reporting for duty with the contractor.

c. All personnel who are engaged in direct recruitment for the project will be instructed by the EEO Officer in the contractor's procedures for locating and hiring minorities and women.

d. Notices and posters setting forth the contractor's EEO policy will be placed in areas readily accessible to employees, applicants for employment and potential employees.

e. The contractor's EEO policy and the procedures to implement such policy will be brought to the attention of employees by means of meetings, employee handbooks, or other appropriate means. 4. Recruitment: When advertising for employees, the contractor will include in all advertisements for employees the notation: "An Equal Opportunity Employer." All such advertisements will be placed in publications having a large circulation among minorities and women in the area from which the project work force would normally be derived.

4

a. The contractor will, unless precluded by a valid bargaining agreement, conduct systematic

and direct recruitment through public and private employee referral sources likely to yield qualified minorities and women. To meet this requirement, the contractor will identify sources of potential minority group employees, and establish with such identified sources procedures whereby minority and women applicants may be referred to the contractor for employment consideration.

b. In the event the contractor has a valid bargaining agreement providing for exclusive hiring hall referrals, the contractor is expected to observe the provisions of that agreement to the extent that the system meets the contractor's compliance with EEO contract provisions. Where implementation of such an agreement has the effect of discriminating against minorities or women, or obligates the contractor to do the same, such implementation violates Federal nondiscrimination provisions.

c. The contractor will encourage its present employees to refer minorities and women as applicants for employment. Information and procedures with regard to referring such applicants will be discussed with employees. 5. Personnel Actions: Wages, working conditions, and employee benefits shall be established and administered, and personnel actions of every type, including hiring, upgrading, promotion, transfer, demotion, layoff, and termination, shall be taken without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability. The following procedures shall be followed:

a. The contractor will conduct periodic inspections of project sites to insure that working conditions and employee facilities do not indicate discriminatory treatment of project site personnel.

b. The contractor will periodically evaluate the spread of wages paid within each classification to determine any evidence of discriminatory wage practices.

c. The contractor will periodically review selected personnel actions in depth to determine whether there is evidence of discrimination. Where evidence is found, the contractor will promptly take corrective action. If the review indicates that the discrimination may extend beyond the actions reviewed, such corrective action shall include all affected persons.

d. The contractor will promptly investigate all complaints of alleged discrimination made to the contractor in connection with its obligations under this contract, will attempt to resolve such complaints, and will take appropriate corrective action within a reasonable time. If the investigation indicates that the discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant, such corrective action shall include such other persons. Upon completion of each investigation, the contractor will inform every complainant of all of their avenues of appeal. 6. Training and Promotion:

a. The contractor will assist in locating, qualifying, and increasing the skills of minorities and women who are applicants for employment or current employees. Such efforts should be aimed at developing full journey level status employees in the type of trade or job classification involved.

5

b. Consistent with the contractor's work force requirements and as permissible under Federal and State regulations, the contractor shall make full use of training programs, i.e., apprenticeship, and on-the-job training programs for the geographical area of contract performance. In the event a special provision for training is provided under this contract, this subparagraph will be superseded as indicated in the special provision. The contracting agency may reserve training positions for persons who receive welfare assistance in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 140(a).

c. The contractor will advise employees and applicants for employment of available training programs and entrance requirements for each.

d. The contractor will periodically review the training and promotion potential of employees who are minorities and women and will encourage eligible employees to apply for such training and promotion. 7. Unions: If the contractor relies in whole or in part upon unions as a source of employees, the contractor will use good faith efforts to obtain the cooperation of such unions to increase opportunities for minorities and women. Actions by the contractor, either directly or through a contractor's association acting as agent, will include the procedures set forth below:

a. The contractor will use good faith efforts to develop, in cooperation with the unions, joint training programs aimed toward qualifying more minorities and women for membership in the unions and increasing the skills of minorities and women so that they may qualify for higher paying employment.

b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to incorporate an EEO clause into each union agreement to the end that such union will be contractually bound to refer applicants without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability.

c. The contractor is to obtain information as to the referral practices and policies of the labor union except that to the extent such information is within the exclusive possession of the labor union and such labor union refuses to furnish such information to the contractor, the contractor shall so certify to the contracting agency and shall set forth what efforts have been made to obtain such information.

d. In the event the union is unable to provide the contractor with a reasonable flow of referrals within the time limit set forth in the collective bargaining agreement, the contractor will, through independent recruitment efforts, fill the employment vacancies without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability; making full efforts to obtain qualified and/or qualifiable minorities and women. The failure of a union to provide sufficient referrals (even though it is obligated to provide exclusive referrals under the terms of a collective bargaining agreement) does not relieve the contractor from the requirements of this paragraph. In the event the union referral practice prevents the contractor from meeting the obligations pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and these special provisions, such contractor shall immediately notify the contracting agency. 8. Reasonable Accommodation for Applicants / Employees with Disabilities: The contractor must be familiar with the requirements for and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and all rules and regulations established there under. Employers must provide reasonable accommodation in all employment activities unless to do so would cause an undue hardship.

6

9. Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials and Leasing of Equipment: The contractor shall not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability in the selection and retention of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment. The contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure nondiscrimination in the administration of this contract.

a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors and suppliers and lessors of their EEO obligations under this contract.

b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to ensure subcontractor compliance with their EEO obligations. 10. Assurance Required by 49 CFR 26.13(b):

a. The requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 and the State DOT’s U.S. DOT-approved DBE program are incorporated by reference.

b. The contractor or subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as the contracting agency deems appropriate. 11. Records and Reports: The contractor shall keep such records as necessary to document compliance with the EEO requirements. Such records shall be retained for a period of three years following the date of the final payment to the contractor for all contract work and shall be available at reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized representatives of the contracting agency and the FHWA.

a. The records kept by the contractor shall document the following: (1) The number and work hours of minority and non-minority group members and women employed in each work classification on the project;

(2) The progress and efforts being made in cooperation with unions, when applicable, to increase employment opportunities for minorities and women; and

(3) The progress and efforts being made in locating, hiring, training, qualifying, and

upgrading minorities and women;

b. The contractors and subcontractors will submit an annual report to the contracting agency each July for the duration of the project, indicating the number of minority, women, and non-minority group employees currently engaged in each work classification required by the contract work. This information is to be reported on Form FHWA-1391. The staffing data should represent the project work force on board in all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July. If on-the-job training is being required by special provision, the contractor will be required to collect and report training data. The employment data should reflect the work force on board during all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July.

III. NONSEGREGATED FACILITIES This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related construction subcontracts of $10,000 or more. The contractor must ensure that facilities provided for employees are provided in such a manner that segregation on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin cannot result. The contractor may neither require such segregated use by written or oral policies nor tolerate such use by employee custom. The contractor's obligation extends further to ensure that its employees are not assigned to perform their services at any location, under the contractor's control, where the facilities are segregated. The term "facilities" includes waiting rooms, work areas, restaurants and other eating areas, time clocks, restrooms, washrooms, locker rooms, and other storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas, transportation, and housing provided for employees. The contractor shall provide separate or single-user restrooms and necessary dressing or sleeping areas to assure privacy between sexes. IV. DAVIS-BACON AND RELATED ACT PROVISIONS

This section is applicable to all Federal-aid construction projects exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (regardless of subcontract size). The requirements apply to all projects located within the right-of-way of a roadway that is functionally classified as Federal-aid highway. This excludes roadways functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors, which are exempt. Contracting agencies may elect to apply these requirements to other projects.

The following provisions are from the U.S. Department of Labor regulations in 29 CFR 5.5 “Contract provisions and related matters” with minor revisions to conform to the FHWA-1273 format and FHWA program requirements.

1. Minimum wages

a. All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work, will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as are permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers and mechanics.

Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under section 1(b)(2) of the Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of paragraph 1.d. of this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such laborers and

8

mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(4). Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classification and wage rates conformed under paragraph 1.b. of this section) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH–1321) shall be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the workers.

b. (1) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination. The contracting officer shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits therefore only when the following criteria have been met:

(i) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; and

(ii) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and

(iii) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.

(2) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken shall be sent by the contracting officer to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary.

(3) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the contracting officer shall refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the contracting officer, to the Wage and Hour Administrator for determination. The Wage and Hour Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary.

(4) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraphs 1.b.(2) or 1.b.(3) of this section, shall be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification.

9

c. Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.

d. If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.

2. Withholding

The contracting agency shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor under this contract, or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor, so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of the work, all or part of the wages required by the contract, the contracting agency may, after written notice to the contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.

3. Payrolls and basic records

a. Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work. Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs.

10

b. (1) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to the contracting agency. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i), except that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on weekly transmittals. Instead the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee ( e.g. , the last four digits of the employee's social security number). The required weekly payroll information may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH–347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division Web site at http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh347instr.htm or its successor site. The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors. Contractors and subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number and current address of each covered worker, and shall provide them upon request to the contracting agency for transmission to the State DOT, the FHWA or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or audit of compliance with prevailing wage requirements. It is not a violation of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security numbers to the prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission to the contracting agency..

(2) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a “Statement of Compliance,” signed by the contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following:

(i) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under §5.5 (a)(3)(ii) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5, the appropriate information is being maintained under §5.5 (a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5, and that such information is correct and complete;

(ii) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations, 29 CFR part 3;

(iii) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.

(3) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH–347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance” required by paragraph 3.b.(2) of this section.

(4) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of title 31 of the United States Code.

c. The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph 3.a. of this section available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, the FHWA may,

11

after written notice to the contractor, the contracting agency or the State DOT, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.

4. Apprentices and trainees

a. Apprentices (programs of the USDOL).

Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice.

The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed.

Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination.

In the event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

b. Trainees (programs of the USDOL).

Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and

12

individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration.

The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration.

Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

c. Equal employment opportunity. The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.

d. Apprentices and Trainees (programs of the U.S. DOT).

Apprentices and trainees working under apprenticeship and skill training programs which have been certified by the Secretary of Transportation as promoting EEO in connection with Federal-aid highway construction programs are not subject to the requirements of paragraph 4 of this Section IV. The straight time hourly wage rates for apprentices and trainees under such programs will be established by the particular programs. The ratio of apprentices and trainees to journeymen shall not be greater than permitted by the terms of the particular program.

5. Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.

6. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert Form FHWA-1273 in any subcontracts and also require the subcontractors to include Form FHWA-1273 in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5.

7. Contract termination: debarment. A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.

13

8. Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.

9. Disputes concerning labor standards. Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives.

10. Certification of eligibility.

a. By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).

b. No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).

c. The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Criminal Code, 18 U.S.C. 1001.

V. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT

The following clauses apply to any Federal-aid construction contract in an amount in excess of $100,000 and subject to the overtime provisions of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. These clauses shall be inserted in addition to the clauses required by 29 CFR 5.5(a) or 29 CFR 4.6. As used in this paragraph, the terms laborers and mechanics include watchmen and guards.

1. Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.

2. Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (1.) of this section, the contractor and any subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (1.) of this section, in the sum of $10 for each calendar day on which such individual

14

was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph (1.) of this section.

3. Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The FHWA or the contacting agency shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from any moneys payable on account of work performed by the contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause set forth in paragraph (2.) of this section.

4. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraph (1.) through (4.) of this section and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (1.) through (4.) of this section.

VI. SUBLETTING OR ASSIGNING THE CONTRACT This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts on the National Highway System. 1. The contractor shall perform with its own organization contract work amounting to not less than 30 percent (or a greater percentage if specified elsewhere in the contract) of the total original contract price, excluding any specialty items designated by the contracting agency. Specialty items may be performed by subcontract and the amount of any such specialty items performed may be deducted from the total original contract price before computing the amount of work required to be performed by the contractor's own organization (23 CFR 635.116).

a. The term “perform work with its own organization” refers to workers employed or leased by the prime contractor, and equipment owned or rented by the prime contractor, with or without operators. Such term does not include employees or equipment of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor, agents of the prime contractor, or any other assignees. The term may include payments for the costs of hiring leased employees from an employee leasing firm meeting all relevant Federal and State regulatory requirements. Leased employees may only be included in this term if the prime contractor meets all of the following conditions: (1) the prime contractor maintains control over the supervision of the day-to-day activities of the leased employees;

(2) the prime contractor remains responsible for the quality of the work of the leased employees;

(3) the prime contractor retains all power to accept or exclude individual employees from work on the project; and

15

(4) the prime contractor remains ultimately responsible for the payment of predetermined minimum wages, the submission of payrolls, statements of compliance and all other Federal regulatory requirements.

b. "Specialty Items" shall be construed to be limited to work that requires highly specialized

knowledge, abilities, or equipment not ordinarily available in the type of contracting organizations qualified and expected to bid or propose on the contract as a whole and in general are to be limited to minor components of the overall contract. 2. The contract amount upon which the requirements set forth in paragraph (1) of Section VI is computed includes the cost of material and manufactured products which are to be purchased or produced by the contractor under the contract provisions. 3. The contractor shall furnish (a) a competent superintendent or supervisor who is employed by the firm, has full authority to direct performance of the work in accordance with the contract requirements, and is in charge of all construction operations (regardless of who performs the work) and (b) such other of its own organizational resources (supervision, management, and engineering services) as the contracting officer determines is necessary to assure the performance of the contract. 4. No portion of the contract shall be sublet, assigned or otherwise disposed of except with the written consent of the contracting officer, or authorized representative, and such consent when given shall not be construed to relieve the contractor of any responsibility for the fulfillment of the contract. Written consent will be given only after the contracting agency has assured that each subcontract is evidenced in writing and that it contains all pertinent provisions and requirements of the prime contract. 5. The 30% self-performance requirement of paragraph (1) is not applicable to design-build contracts; however, contracting agencies may establish their own self-performance requirements. VII. SAFETY: ACCIDENT PREVENTION This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts. 1. In the performance of this contract the contractor shall comply with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws governing safety, health, and sanitation (23 CFR 635). The contractor shall provide all safeguards, safety devices and protective equipment and take any other needed actions as it determines, or as the contracting officer may determine, to be reasonably necessary to protect the life and health of employees on the job and the safety of the public and to protect property in connection with the performance of the work covered by the contract. 2. It is a condition of this contract, and shall be made a condition of each subcontract, which the contractor enters into pursuant to this contract, that the contractor and any subcontractor shall not permit any employee, in performance of the contract, to work in surroundings or under conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous to his/her health or safety, as determined under construction safety and health standards (29 CFR 1926) promulgated by the Secretary of Labor, in accordance with Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3704).

16

3. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1926.3, it is a condition of this contract that the Secretary of Labor or authorized representative thereof, shall have right of entry to any site of contract performance to inspect or investigate the matter of compliance with the construction safety and health standards and to carry out the duties of the Secretary under Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C.3704). VIII. FALSE STATEMENTS CONCERNING HIGHWAY PROJECTS This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts. In order to assure high quality and durable construction in conformity with approved plans and specifications and a high degree of reliability on statements and representations made by engineers, contractors, suppliers, and workers on Federal-aid highway projects, it is essential that all persons concerned with the project perform their functions as carefully, thoroughly, and honestly as possible. Willful falsification, distortion, or misrepresentation with respect to any facts related to the project is a violation of Federal law. To prevent any misunderstanding regarding the seriousness of these and similar acts, Form FHWA-1022 shall be posted on each Federal-aid highway project (23 CFR 635) in one or more places where it is readily available to all persons concerned with the project: 18 U.S.C. 1020 reads as follows: "Whoever, being an officer, agent, or employee of the United States, or of any State or Territory, or whoever, whether a person, association, firm, or corporation, knowingly makes any false statement, false representation, or false report as to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of the material used or to be used, or the quantity or quality of the work performed or to be performed, or the cost thereof in connection with the submission of plans, maps, specifications, contracts, or costs of construction on any highway or related project submitted for approval to the Secretary of Transportation; or Whoever knowingly makes any false statement, false representation, false report or false claim with respect to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of any work performed or to be performed, or materials furnished or to be furnished, in connection with the construction of any highway or related project approved by the Secretary of Transportation; or Whoever knowingly makes any false statement or false representation as to material fact in any statement, certificate, or report submitted pursuant to provisions of the Federal-aid Roads Act approved July 1, 1916, (39 Stat. 355), as amended and supplemented; Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5 years or both." IX. IMPLEMENTATION OF CLEAN AIR ACT AND FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.

17

By submission of this bid/proposal or the execution of this contract, or subcontract, as appropriate, the bidder, proposer, Federal-aid construction contractor, or subcontractor, as appropriate, will be deemed to have stipulated as follows: 1. That any person who is or will be utilized in the performance of this contract is not prohibited from receiving an award due to a violation of Section 508 of the Clean Water Act or Section 306 of the Clean Air Act. 2. That the contractor agrees to include or cause to be included the requirements of paragraph (1) of this Section X in every subcontract, and further agrees to take such action as the contracting agency may direct as a means of enforcing such requirements. X. CERTIFICATION REGARDING DEBARMENT, SUSPENSION, INELIGIBILITY AND VOLUNTARY EXCLUSION This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts, design-build contracts, subcontracts, lower-tier subcontracts, purchase orders, lease agreements, consultant contracts or any other covered transaction requiring FHWA approval or that is estimated to cost $25,000 or more – as defined in 2 CFR Parts 180 and 1200. 1. Instructions for Certification – First Tier Participants: a. By signing and submitting this proposal, the prospective first tier participant is providing the certification set out below. b. The inability of a person to provide the certification set out below will not necessarily result in denial of participation in this covered transaction. The prospective first tier participant shall submit an explanation of why it cannot provide the certification set out below. The certification or explanation will be considered in connection with the department or agency's determination whether to enter into this transaction. However, failure of the prospective first tier participant to furnish a certification or an explanation shall disqualify such a person from participation in this transaction. c. The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when the contracting agency determined to enter into this transaction. If it is later determined that the prospective participant knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the contracting agency may terminate this transaction for cause of default. d. The prospective first tier participant shall provide immediate written notice to the contracting agency to whom this proposal is submitted if any time the prospective first tier participant learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. e. The terms "covered transaction," "debarred," "suspended," "ineligible," "participant," "person," "principal," and "voluntarily excluded," as used in this clause, are defined in 2 CFR Parts 180 and 1200. “First Tier Covered Transactions” refers to any covered transaction between a grantee or subgrantee of Federal funds and a participant (such as the prime or

18

general contract). “Lower Tier Covered Transactions” refers to any covered transaction under a First Tier Covered Transaction (such as subcontracts). “First Tier Participant” refers to the participant who has entered into a covered transaction with a grantee or subgrantee of Federal funds (such as the prime or general contractor). “Lower Tier Participant” refers any participant who has entered into a covered transaction with a First Tier Participant or other Lower Tier Participants (such as subcontractors and suppliers). f. The prospective first tier participant agrees by submitting this proposal that, should the proposed covered transaction be entered into, it shall not knowingly enter into any lower tier covered transaction with a person who is debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction, unless authorized by the department or agency entering into this transaction. g. The prospective first tier participant further agrees by submitting this proposal that it will include the clause titled "Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion-Lower Tier Covered Transactions," provided by the department or contracting agency, entering into this covered transaction, without modification, in all lower tier covered transactions and in all solicitations for lower tier covered transactions exceeding the $25,000 threshold. h. A participant in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. A participant is responsible for ensuring that its principals are not suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to participate in covered transactions. To verify the eligibility of its principals, as well as the eligibility of any lower tier prospective participants, each participant may, but is not required to, check the Excluded Parties List System website (https://www.epls.gov/), which is compiled by the General Services Administration. i. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require the establishment of a system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this clause. The knowledge and information of the prospective participant is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings. j. Except for transactions authorized under paragraph (f) of these instructions, if a participant in a covered transaction knowingly enters into a lower tier covered transaction with a person who is suspended, debarred, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this transaction, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the department or agency may terminate this transaction for cause or default. * * * * * 2. Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion – First Tier Participants: a. The prospective first tier participant certifies to the best of its knowledge and belief, that it and its principals: (1) Are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participating in covered transactions by any Federal department or agency;

19

(2) Have not within a three-year period preceding this proposal been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State or local) transaction or contract under a public transaction; violation of Federal or State antitrust statutes or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, or receiving stolen property; (3) Are not presently indicted for or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity (Federal, State or local) with commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(2) of this certification; and (4) Have not within a three-year period preceding this application/proposal had one or more public transactions (Federal, State or local) terminated for cause or default. b. Where the prospective participant is unable to certify to any of the statements in this certification, such prospective participant shall attach an explanation to this proposal. 2. Instructions for Certification - Lower Tier Participants: (Applicable to all subcontracts, purchase orders and other lower tier transactions requiring prior FHWA approval or estimated to cost $25,000 or more - 2 CFR Parts 180 and 1200) a. By signing and submitting this proposal, the prospective lower tier is providing the certification set out below. b. The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when this transaction was entered into. If it is later determined that the prospective lower tier participant knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the department, or agency with which this transaction originated may pursue available remedies, including suspension and/or debarment. c. The prospective lower tier participant shall provide immediate written notice to the person to which this proposal is submitted if at any time the prospective lower tier participant learns that its certification was erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. d. The terms "covered transaction," "debarred," "suspended," "ineligible," "participant," "person," "principal," and "voluntarily excluded," as used in this clause, are defined in 2 CFR Parts 180 and 1200. You may contact the person to which this proposal is submitted for assistance in obtaining a copy of those regulations. “First Tier Covered Transactions” refers to any covered transaction between a grantee or subgrantee of Federal funds and a participant (such as the prime or general contract). “Lower Tier Covered Transactions” refers to any covered transaction under a First Tier Covered Transaction (such as subcontracts). “First Tier Participant” refers to the participant who has entered into a covered transaction with a grantee or subgrantee of Federal funds (such as the prime or general contractor). “Lower Tier Participant” refers any participant who has entered into a covered transaction with a First Tier Participant or other Lower Tier Participants (such as subcontractors and suppliers). e. The prospective lower tier participant agrees by submitting this proposal that, should the proposed covered transaction be entered into, it shall not knowingly enter into any lower tier covered transaction with a person who is debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or

20

voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction, unless authorized by the department or agency with which this transaction originated. f. The prospective lower tier participant further agrees by submitting this proposal that it will include this clause titled "Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion-Lower Tier Covered Transaction," without modification, in all lower tier covered transactions and in all solicitations for lower tier covered transactions exceeding the $25,000 threshold. g. A participant in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. A participant is responsible for ensuring that its principals are not suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to participate in covered transactions. To verify the eligibility of its principals, as well as the eligibility of any lower tier prospective participants, each participant may, but is not required to, check the Excluded Parties List System website (https://www.epls.gov/), which is compiled by the General Services Administration. h. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this clause. The knowledge and information of participant is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings. i. Except for transactions authorized under paragraph e of these instructions, if a participant in a covered transaction knowingly enters into a lower tier covered transaction with a person who is suspended, debarred, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this transaction, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the department or agency with which this transaction originated may pursue available remedies, including suspension and/or debarment. * * * * * Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion--Lower Tier Participants: 1. The prospective lower tier participant certifies, by submission of this proposal, that neither it nor its principals is presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participating in covered transactions by any Federal department or agency. 2. Where the prospective lower tier participant is unable to certify to any of the statements in this certification, such prospective participant shall attach an explanation to this proposal. * * * * *

ATTACHMENT A - EMPLOYMENT AND MATERIALS PREFERENCE FOR APPALACHIAN DEVELOPMENT HIGHWAY SYSTEM OR APPALACHIAN LOCAL ACCESS ROAD CONTRACTS This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid projects funded under the Appalachian Regional Development Act of 1965. 1. During the performance of this contract, the contractor undertaking to do work which is, or reasonably may be, done as on-site work, shall give preference to qualified persons who regularly reside in the labor area as designated by the DOL wherein the contract work is situated, or the subregion, or the Appalachian counties of the State wherein the contract work is situated, except: a. To the extent that qualified persons regularly residing in the area are not available. b. For the reasonable needs of the contractor to employ supervisory or specially experienced personnel necessary to assure an efficient execution of the contract work. c. For the obligation of the contractor to offer employment to present or former employees as the result of a lawful collective bargaining contract, provided that the number of nonresident persons employed under this subparagraph (1c) shall not exceed 20 percent of the total number of employees employed by the contractor on the contract work, except as provided in subparagraph (4) below. 2. The contractor shall place a job order with the State Employment Service indicating (a) the classifications of the laborers, mechanics and other employees required to perform the contract work, (b) the number of employees required in each classification, (c) the date on which the participant estimates such employees will be required, and (d) any other pertinent information required by the State Employment Service to complete the job order form. The job order may be placed with the State Employment Service in writing or by telephone. If during the course of the contract work, the information submitted by the contractor in the original job order is substantially modified, the participant shall promptly notify the State Employment Service. 3. The contractor shall give full consideration to all qualified job applicants referred to him by the State Employment Service. The contractor is not required to grant employment to any job applicants who, in his opinion, are not qualified to perform the classification of work required. 4. If, within one week following the placing of a job order by the contractor with the State Employment Service, the State Employment Service is unable to refer any qualified job applicants to the contractor, or less than the number requested, the State Employment Service will forward a certificate to the contractor indicating the unavailability of applicants. Such certificate shall be made a part of the contractor's permanent project records. Upon receipt of this certificate, the contractor may employ persons who do not normally reside in the labor area to fill positions covered by the certificate, notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (1c) above. 5. The provisions of 23 CFR 633.207(e) allow the contracting agency to provide a contractual preference for the use of mineral resource materials native to the Appalachian region. 6. The contractor shall include the provisions of Sections 1 through 4 of this Attachment A in every subcontract for work which is, or reasonably may be, done as on-site work.

STD DB Wage Requirements (Rev 5-16-12)

WAGE RATE REQUIREMENTS (1)

Davis Bacon Wages – 29 CFR 5.5

The Contractor shall pay the higher of the following two wage rate determinations:

Federal Wage Rate Determination: 7/22/16 WA79

State Prevailing Wage Rate Determination: Effective Date, Trade, County: Okanogan 8/23/16

This contract is subject to Davis Bacon wage rates, meaning the Contractor is required to pay

the higher of the Federal and State wage rate determinations included in these contract

documents. It is the Contractor's sole responsibility to simultaneously comply with Federal (SCA

{29 CFR Parts 4, 6, 8}) and State (RCW 39) labor laws; this includes ensuring that its

subcontractors comply with same.

If the Contractor uses labor classifications for which wage rate determinations are not included in (2)

both of the federal and state wage determinations included in these specific Contract Documents,

the Contractor, in most instances, must propose a wage rate and request approval of the proposed

rate in writing from the Owner. Such additional determinations are enforceable provisions of this

Contract, as though fully set forth herein.

(1)

The purpose of the above is to serve as guidance for compliance with the wage requirements stated

in these contract documents. It is not to be taken as comprehensive. It does not contradict or replace

the general conditions or supplemental general conditions. Further guidance, clarification, and

information must be sought from WDOL and WA L&I - not the Owner or the Owner’s engineer.

(2) For example, if a wage class is included in the state wage determination but is not included in the

federal wage determination, the Contractor cannot simply use the state rate. Some specialty

classifications may be covered by general classifications, but in most cases, Davis Bacon requires

the Contractor to request a federal wage determination.

NOTES:

There is no guarantee that labor can be obtained at the enclosed wage rates. The Federal and state

minimum wage rates included herein may change before bid opening. Revised rates will be included

in addendum(s).

The body of each wage determination lists the classificationand wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for thecited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wagedetermination. The classifications are listed in alphabeticalorder of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particularrate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local),a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate(weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers

A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosedin dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or"UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate wereprevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:PLUM0198‐005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier ofthe union which prevailed in the survey for thisclassification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198indicates the local union number or district council numberwhere applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number,005 in the example, is an internal number used in processingthe wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of themost current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1,2014.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all ratechanges in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governingthis classification and rate.

Survey Rate Identifiers

Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate thatno one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey andthe published rate is derived by computing a weighted averagerate based on all the rates reported in the survey for thatclassification. As this weighted average rate includes allrates reported in the survey, it may include both union andnon‐union rates. Example: SULA2012‐007 5/13/2014. SU indicatesthe rates are survey rates based on a weighted averagecalculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicatesthe State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on whichthese classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007in the example, is an internal number used in producing thewage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completiondate for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until anew survey is conducted.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicatethat no single majority rate prevailed for thoseclassifications; however, 100% of the data reported for theclassifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG‐OH‐001008/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted unionaverage rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 inthe example, is an internal number used in producing the wagedetermination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion datefor the classifications and rates under that identifier.



A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January ofeach year, to reflect a weighted average of the currentnegotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate isbased.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This canbe:

* an existing published wage determination* a survey underlying a wage determination* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requestsfor summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and HourRegional Office for the area in which the survey was conductedbecause those Regional Offices have responsibility for theDavis‐Bacon survey program. If the response from this initialcontact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.)and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formalprocess described here, initial contact should be with theBranch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then aninterested party (those affected by the action) can requestreview and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to:

Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of theinterested party's position and by any information (wagepayment data, project description, area practice material,etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, aninterested party may appeal directly to the AdministrativeReview Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.



Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
