3. Opportunity to Cure (General Provision): Sun Tran in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the Contractor to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions If Contractor fails to remedy to Sun Tran’s satisfaction the breach or default or any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Contract after receipt of written notice from Sun Tran setting forth the nature of said breach or default, Sun Tran shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further obligation to Contractor. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate to preclude Sun Tran from also pursuing all available remedies against Contractor and its sureties for said breach or default.

4. Waiver of Remedies for any Breach: In the event that Sun Tran elects to waive its remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this Contract, such waiver by Sun Tran shall not limit Sun Tran's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract.

This liability includes any increased costs incurred by Sun Tran in completing the work.

The Contractor's right to proceed shall not be terminated nor the Contractor charged with damages under this clause if-

b. DBE obligation - The Contractor and its subcontractors agree to ensure that disadvantaged businesses have the maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of contracts and subcontracts financed in whole or in part with federal funds provided under the Agreement.

All construction contracts in excess of $10,000 by grantees and their contractors or subgrantees shall contain a provision requiring compliance with Executive Order 11246, entitled "Equal Employment Opportunity", as amended by Executive Order 11375, and as supplemented in Department of Labor regulations (41 C.F.R. Part 60). The following clauses shall be included:

Nondiscrimination
During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
a. The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin. Such action shall include but not be limited to the following: 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. The contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. b.

In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this agreement or with any of such rules, regulations or orders, this agreement may be cancelled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared ineligible for further Federal or Federally assisted contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive No. Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.
g. The contractor will include the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (g) of this subsection in every subcontract or purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant to Section 204 of Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such provisions shall be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the Secretary of Labor or the FTA may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance; provided, however, that if a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States." Specifications
The following clauses must also be included in all construction contract s and subcontracts over $10,000, in geographical areas designated pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.3:
"Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications (Executive Order No. 11246):

1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered Area" means the geographical area described in the solicitation from which this contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority; c. "Employer Identification Number" means the federal social security number used on the employer's quarterly federal tax return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941. d. "Minority" includes:
i. Black (all persons having origins in any of the black African racial groups not of Hispanic origin); ii. Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race);
iii. Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and iv. American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and participation or community identification).

2. Whenever the contractor, or any subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the notice which contains the applicab le goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the solicitations from which this contract resulted.

3. If the contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.5) in a hometown plan approved by the U.S.

Department of Labor in the covered area, either individually or through an association, its affirmative action obligations on all work in the plan area (including goals and timetables) shall be in accordance with that plan for those trades which have unions participating in the plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation in and compliance with the provisions of any such hometown plan. Each contractor or subcontractor participating in an approved plan is individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause, and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the plan in each trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith performance by other contractors or subcontractors toward a goal in an approved plan does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's failure to make good faith efforts to achieve the plan goals and timetables.

4. The contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided i n paragraphs (7)(a) through (p) of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of employment and training of minority and female utilization the contractor should reasonably be able to achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area. Covered construction contractors performing construction work in geographical areas where they do not have a Federal or Federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals established for the geographical area where the work is being performed. Goals are published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and such notices may be obtained from any Federal Contract Compliance Program Office or from Federal Procurement Contracting Officers. The contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress toward its goal in each craft during the period specified.

5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union with whom the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive Orde r No. 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.

6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the contractor during the training period, and the contractor must have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability of employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs approved by the U. S. Department of Labor.

7. The contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment opportunity. The evaluation of the contractor's compliance with these specifications shall be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its actions. The contractor shall document these efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the contractor's employees are assigned to work. The contractor, where possible, will assign two or more women to each construction project. The contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen, superintendents, and other on -site supervisory personnel are aware of and carry out the contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment, with specific attention to minority or female individuals working at such sites or in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources, provide written notice to minority and female r ecruitment sources and to community organizations when the contractor or its unions have employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of each minority and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source or community organization and of what action was taken with respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the contractor by the union or, if referred, not employed by the contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever additional actions the contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or unions with which the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the contractor a minority person or woman sent by the contractor, or when the contractor has other information that the union referral process has impeded the contractor's efforts to meet its obligations. e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or p articipate in training programs for the area which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the contractor's employment needs, especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under (7)(b) above.
f. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the contractor in meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report, etc.; by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority and female employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where construction work is performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations under these specifications with all employees having responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific review of these items with on-site supervisory personnel such as superintendents, general foreman, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A written record shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.
h. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising in the news media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing written notification to and discussing the contractor's EEO policy with other contractors and subcontractors with whom the contractor does or anticipates doing business. i. Direct recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female, and community organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority and female recruitment and training organizations serving the contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the contractor shall send written notice to organizations such as the above, describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons and women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation employment to minority and female youth, both on the site and in other areas of the contractor's work force. k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so under 41 C.F.R. Part 60-3.
l. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities. m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments, and other personnel practices do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the contractor's obligations under these specifications are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated except that separate or single- user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between sexes. o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and other business associations. p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance under the contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.

8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations that assist in fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations set forth in paragraphs (7)(a) through (p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union, contractor-community, or other similar group of which the contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling any one or more of its obligations under paragraphs (7)(a) through (p) of these specifications, provided that the contractor actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure that the group has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensures that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the contractor's minority and female work force participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and timetables, and can provide access to documentation that demonstrates the effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the contractor. The obligation to comply, however, is the contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the contractor's noncompliance.

9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been established. The contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female, and all women, both minority and non -minority. Consequently, the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner (even though the contractor has achieved its goal for women generally, the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is underutilized).

10. The contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action standard s to discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

11. The contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm debarred from government contracts pursuant to Executive Order No. 11246.

12. The contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these specifications and of the equal opportunity clause, including suspension, termination and cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall be in violatio n of these specifications and Executive Order No. 11246, as amended.

13. The contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in paragraph (7) of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the contractor fails to comply with the requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications, the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 C.F.R. 60-4.8.

14. The contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to keep records. Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address, telephone numbers, construction trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and locati ons at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the extent that existing records satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required to maintain separate records.

15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other laws that establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area residents (e. g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant Program)."

Notice

Contractor agrees to include the following notice in all construction subcontracts over $10,000, in geographical areas designated pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.2:

"Notice of Requirement for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity (Executive Order 11246):

1. The offeror's or bidder's attention is called to the "Equal Opportunity Clause" and the "Standard Federal Equal Employment Specifications" set forth herein.

2. a. The goals and the timetables for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the contractor's aggregate work force in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows:

Timetables

Goals for Minority
Participation for Each Trade

Goals for Female
Participation in Each Trade

Insert Goals for Each Year

Insert Goals for Each Year

b. These goals are applicable to all the contractor's construction work (whether or not it is Federal or Federally assisted) performed in the covered area. If the contractor performs construction work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, it shall apply the goals established for such geographical area where the work is actually performed. With regard to this second area, the contractor also is subject to the goals for both its Federally involved and nonfederally involved construction.

c. The contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-4 shall be based on its implementation of the Equal Opportunity Clause, specific affirmative action obligations required by the specifications set forth at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to meet the goals.

The hours of minority and female employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects. The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from contractor to contractor or from project to project for the sole purpose of meeting the contractor's goals shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order, and the regulations in C.F.R.

Part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured against the total work hours performed.

3. The contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification shall list the name, address, and telephone number of the subcontractor; employer identification number of the subcontractor; estimated dollar amount of the subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the subcontract; and the geographical area in which the subcontract is to be performed.

Acts Provisions and Procedures
Sec. 5.5 Contrac t provisions and related
matters.
(1) Minimum wages - (i) All laborers and
mechanics employed or working upon the site
of the work (or under the United States
Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act
of 1949 in the construction or development of
the project), 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)(iv) 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 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 Part 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 classifications and
wage rates conformed under paragraph (1)(ii)
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.
(ii)(A) 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:
(1) Except with respect to helpers as defined
as 29 CFR 5.2(n)(4), the work to be
performed by the classification requested is
not performed by a classification in the wage
determination; and
(2) The classification is utilized in the area by
the construction industry; and
(3) The proposed wage rate, including any
bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in
the wage determination; and
(4) With respect to helpers as defined in 29
CFR 5.2(n)(4), such a classification prevails in
the area in which the work is performed.
(B) 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.
(C) 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 Administrator for determination. The
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.
(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits
where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(ii) (B) or (C) 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.
(iii) 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.
(iv) 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.
(v)(A) The contracting officer shall require that
any class of laborers or mechanics 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 therefor only
when the following criteria have been met:
(1) The work to be performed by the
classification requested is not performed by a
classification in the wage determination; and
(2) The classification is utilized in the area by
the construction industry; and
(3) The proposed wage rate, including any
bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in
the wage determination.
(B) 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, 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.
(C) 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 Administrator for determination. The
Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will issue a determination with
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.
(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits
where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(v) (B) or (C) 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.
(2) Withholding - Sun Tran 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
(or under the United States Housing Act of
1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the
construction or development of the project),
all or part of the wages required by the
contract, Sun Tran may, after written notice to
the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner,
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 - (i) 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 (or
under the United States Housing Act of 1937,
or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the
construction or development of the project).

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.
(ii)(A) The contractor shall submit weekly for
each week in which any contract work is
performed a copy of all payrolls to Sun Tran
for transmission to the Federal Transit
Administration. The payrolls submitted shall
set out accurately and completely all of the
information required to be maintained under
section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR
part 5. This information may be submitted in
any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is
available for this purpose and may be
purchased from the Superintendent of
Documents (Federal Stock Number 029-005-
00014-1), U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402. The prime contractor
is responsible for the submission of copies of
payrolls by all subcontractors.
(B) 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:
(1) That the payroll for the payroll period
contains the information required to be
maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of
Regulations, 29 CFR part 5 and that such
information is correct and complete;
(2) 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;
(3) 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.
(C) 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 (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section.
(D) 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.
(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall
make the records required under paragraph
(a)(3)(i) of this section available for
inspection, copying, or transcription by
authorized representatives of the Federal
Transit Administration 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 Federal agency may, after
written notice to the contractor, sponsor,
applicant, or owner, 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 - (i)
Apprentices - 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, Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or with a State Apprenticeship
Agency recognized by the Bureau, 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 Bureau of
Apprenticeship and Training 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 of the
Wage and Hour Division of the U.S.

Department of Labor determines that a
different practice prevails for the applicable
apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid
in accordance with that determination. In the
event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency
recognized by the Bureau, 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.
(ii) Trainees - 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 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.
(iii) 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.
(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 in any subcontracts
the clauses contained in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)
through (10) and such other clauses as the
Federal Transit Administration may by
appropriate instructions require, and also a
clause requiring the subcontractors to include
these clauses 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. (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 - (i) 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).
(ii) 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).
(iii) The penalty for making false statements is
prescribed in the U.S. Criminal Code, 18
U.S.C. 1001.

Contract Work Hours and
Safety Standards
(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

contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to
the United States 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

liquidated damages - Sun Tran 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 paragraphs (1) through

Planning, Research, Development and Demonstration Projects Patent And Rights In Data - 37 CFR Part 401, 49 CFR Parts 18 and 19 CONTRACTS INVOLVING EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, OR RESEARCH WORK.

A. Rights in Data - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental or research work:

1. The term "subject data " used in this clause means recorded information, whether or not copyrighted, that is delivered or specified to be delivered under the contract. The term includes graphic or pictorial delineation in media such as drawings or photographs; text in specifications or related performance or design -type documents; machine forms such as punched cards, magnetic tape, or computer memory printouts; and information retained in computer memory.

Examples include, but are not limited to: computer software, engineering dr awings and associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical reports, catalog item identifications, and related information. The term "subject data" does not include financial reports, cost analyses, and similar information incidental to contract administration.

2. The following restrictions apply to all subject data first produced in the performance of the contract to which this Attachment has been added:
a. Except for its own internal use, the Purchaser or Contractor may not publish or reproduce subject data in whole or in part, or in any manner or form, nor may the Purchaser or Contractor authorize others to do so, without the written consent of the Federal Government, until such time as the Federal Government may have e ither released or approved the release of such data to the public; this restriction on publication, however, does not apply to any contract with an academic institution. b. In accordance with 49 C.F.R. § 18.34 and 49 C.F.R. § 19.36, the Federal Governme nt reserves a royalty-free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, for "Federal Government purposes," any subject data or copyright described in subsections (2)(b)1 and (2)(b)2 of this clause below.

As used in the previous sentence, "for Federal Government purposes," means use only for the direct purposes of the Federal Government. Without the copyright owner's consent, the Federal Government may not extend its Federal license to any other party.

1. Any subject data developed under that contract, whether or not a copyright has been obtained; and

2. Any rights of copyright purchased by the Purchaser or Contractor using Federal assistance in whole or in part provided by FTA.
c. When FTA awards Federal assistance for experimental, developmental, or research work, it is FTA's general intention to increase transportation knowledge available to the public, rather than to restrict the benefits resulting from the work to participant s in that work.

Therefore, unless FTA determines otherwise, the Purchaser and the Contractor performing experimental, developmental, or research work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment is added agrees to permit FTA to make available to the public, either FTA's license in the copyright to any subject data developed in the course of that contract, or a copy of the subject data first produced under the contract for which a copyright has not been obtained. If the experimental, developm ental, or research work, which is the subject of the underlying contract, is not completed for any reason whatsoever, all data developed under that contract shall become subject data as defined in subsection (a) of this clause and shall be delivered as the Federal Government may direct. This subsection (c) , however, does not apply to adaptations of automatic data processing equipment or programs for the Purchaser or Contractor's use whose costs are financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA for transportation capital projects. d. Unless prohibited by state law, upon request by the Federal Government, the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the Federal Government, its officers, agents, and employees acting within the scope of their official duties against any liability, including costs and expenses, resulting from any willful or intentional violation by the Purchaser or Contractor of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data furnished under that contract. Neither the Purchaser nor the Contractor shall be required to indemnify the Federal Government for any such liability arising out of the wrongful act of any employee, official, or agents of the Federal Government. e. Nothing contained in this clause on rights in data shall imply a license to the Federal Government under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope of any licen se or other right otherwise granted to the Federal Government under any patent. f. Data developed by the Purchaser or Contractor and financed entirely without using Federal assistance provided by the Federal Government that has been incorporated into wo rk required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment has been added is exempt from the requirements of subsections (b), (c), and (d) of this clause , provided that the Purchaser or Contractor identifies that data in writing at the time of delivery of the contract work.
g. Unless FTA determines otherwise, the Contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA.

3. Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (i.e., a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, inst itution of higher education, individual, etc.), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S.

Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R. Part 401.

2. Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S.

Exhibit 02 – Grainger 2023 ESG Report

ABOUT THIS REPORT
The report's contents are shaped by our ESG materiality assessment, which was last completed in 2021. We also align disclosures to the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), and we provide a Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) content index to indicate the location(s) of particular ESG topics and data. The data in this document is for the reporting period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 unless otherwise specified. Throughout this report, data figures are rounded and approximate.

BOUNDARY
Although Grainger's ESG commitments apply throughout the world, this report is primarily focused on the company's major operations in North America. These operations currently represent more than 80% of Grainger's business based on percentage of revenue, scope of operations and number of team members. In this report, the specific geographic and business unit boundaries are referenced as following:
• "Total company", "Grainger", "global", or "globally" refer to W.W. Grainger, Inc. and its subsidiaries, except where the context makes it clear that the reference is only to W.W.

Grainger, Inc. itself and not its subsidiaries.
• "High-Touch Solutions N.A." refers to Grainger's High-Touch Solutions segment, which provides value-added MRO solutions that are rooted in deep product knowledge and customer expertise. The high-touch solutions model serves customers with complex buying needs. This segment includes the Grainger-branded businesses in the United States (U.S.), Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico.
• "High-Touch Solutions U.S." refers to Grainger-branded businesses in the U.S. that form part of the high-touch solutions model.
• "Endless Assortment" refers to Grainger's Endless Assortment segment that provides a streamlined and transparent online platform with one-stop shopping for millions of products. The Endless Assortment segment includes Zoro Tools, Inc. (Zoro) and MonotaRO Co., Ltd. (MonotaRO) online channels which operate predominately in the U.S. and Japan.
• Stated geographies such as "U.S." or "U.S. and Canada" refer to all of Grainger's operations in the stated geographies. Both reportable segments High-Touch Solutions N.A. and Endless Assortment are included.

EXTERNAL ASSURANCE
The company engages with Apex Companies, LLC, for verification of its greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption, waste generation and water consumption data. Additionally, Grainger receives ongoing verification of its environmentally preferable SKU designation from a third-party provider.

DATA VALIDATION
In 2021, Grainger's Controllership team began an extensive ESG metric validation project, which was completed in 2022. The objectives of this work included assessment of all ESG metrics reported internally and externally, validation of source data and calculation of metrics. In 2022, a new team within Controllership was established that is dedicated to reviewing ESG data and ensuring accuracy, completeness and consistency in external reporting on an ongoing basis.

BOARD OVERSIGHT
Our Board, guided by the Operating Principles for the
Board of Directors , is responsible for Grainger's overall strategic direction. This direction includes ESG oversight by the Board Affairs and Nominating Committee (BANC),
which is composed of independent Directors, including
those with expertise in corporate environmental, social and governance matters. The BANC reviews Grainger's ESG
programs and reporting at least annually, including, but not limited to, energy and emissions; community impact;
governance; company culture; talent strategy; and diversity, equity and inclusion practices. Learn more about our Board governance in our 2023 Proxy Statement and in our
Committee Charters .

ESG LEADERSHIP COUNCIL
In developing Grainger's ESG efforts, Chairman and CEO, D.G. Macpherson leads an ESG Leadership Council (ELC)
composed of senior-most leadership that sets the strategic direction of Grainger's ESG program and identifies ways to incorporate ESG initiatives into operations and strategy.

This group meets at least quarterly and updates the BANC on a regular basis.

5. Grainger Leadership Team represents the CEO's leadership team (executive leadership).

ESG WORKING GROUPS
The ESG Leadership Council's strategy is implemented by cross-functional ESG Working Groups focused on near-term priorities, material topics and supporting efforts such as reporting. Our ESG Working Groups comprise leaders and
subject matter experts who are responsible for implementing programs to drive progress on key ESG topics and goals.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
During 2022, in partnership with the Compensation
Committee's independent compensation consultant and our ESG Leadership Council, we studied various notional
compensation program designs to assess how ESG metrics
could align with our goal to drive a purpose-driven culture that enables strong performance and aligns with our ESG objectives. Informed by this review, we have integrated an ESG modifier within the U.S.-based Grainger Leadership
Team's annual incentive program for 20235. The ESG
modifier can increase or decrease payouts determined by financial performance based on two quantitative metrics:
total global absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions and diverse leadership representation.

DEFINITIONS
Contract means a legal instrument by which a non–Federal entity purchases property or services needed to carry out the project or program under a Federal award.

Contractor means an entity that receives a contract as defined in Contract.

Cooperative agreement means a legal instrument of financial assistance between a Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity and a non–Federal entity that, consistent with 31 U.S.C. 6302–6305:

FEMA AND ADDITIONAL FEDERAL FUNDING SPECIAL CONDITIONS

Awarded Supplier(s) (also referred to as Contractors) may need to respond to events and losses where products and services are needed for the immediate and initial response to emergency situations such as, but not limited to, water damage, fire damage, vandalism cleanup, biohazard cleanup, sewage decontamination, deodorization, and/or wind damage during a disaster or emergency situation. By submitting a proposal, the Supplier is accepted these FEMA and Additional Federal Funding Special Conditions required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other federal entities.

“Contract” in the below pages under FEMA AND ADDITIONAL FEDERAL FUNDING SPECIAL CONDITIONS is also referred to and defined as the “Master Agreement”.

“Contractor” in the below pages under FEMA AND ADDITIONAL FEDERAL FUNDING SPECIAL CONDITIONS is also referred to and defined as “Supplier” or “Awarded Supplier”.

Conflicts of Interest
No employee, officer, or agent may participate in the selection, award, or administration of a contract supported by a FEMA award if he or she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. Such a conflict would arise when the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of these parties, has a financial or other interest in or a tangible personal benefit from a firm considered for award. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1); See also Standard Form 424D, ¶ 7; Standard Form 424B, ¶ 3. i. FEMA considers a “financial interest” to be the potential for gain or loss to the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of these parties as a result of the particular procurement. The prohibited financial interest may arise from ownership of certain financial instruments or investments such as stock, bonds, or real estate, or from a salary, indebtedness, job offer, or similar interest that might be affected by the particular procurement. ii. FEMA considers an “apparent” conflict of interest to exist where an actual conflict does not exist, but where a reasonable person with knowledge of the relevant facts would question the impartiality of the employee, officer, or agent participating in the procurement. c. Gifts. The officers, employees, and agents of the Participating Public Agency nor the Participating Public Agency (“NFE”) must neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from contractors or parties to subcontracts. However, NFE’s may set standards for situations in which the financial interest is de minimus, not substantial, or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal value. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1). d. Violations. The NFE’s written standards of conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards by officers, employees, or agents of the NFE. 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1). For example, the penalty for a NFE’s employee may be dismissal, and the penalty for a contractor might be the termination of the contract.

Contractor Integrity
A contractor must have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics. Contractors that are debarred or suspended, as described in and subject to the debarment and suspension regulations implementing Executive Order 12549, Debarment and Suspension (1986) and Executive Order 12689, Debarment and Suspension (1989) at 2 C.F.R. Part 180 and the Department of Homeland Security’s regulations at 2 C.F.R.

Part 3000 (Non-procurement Debarment and Suspension), must be rejected and cannot receive contract awards at any level.

Notice of Legal Matters Affecting the Federal Government In the event FTA or DOT funding is used by Participating Public Agency, Contractor agrees to:
1) The Contractor agrees that if a current or prospective legal matter that may affect the Federal Government emerges, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Participating Public Agency of the legal matter in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §§ 180.220 and 1200.220.

Version June 28, 2023
2) The types of legal matters that require notification include, but are not limited to, a major dispute, breach, default, litigation, or naming the Federal Government as a party to litigation or a legal disagreement in any forum for any reason.

3) The Contractor further agrees to include the above clause in each subcontract, at every tier, financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by the FTA.

Public Policy
A contractor must comply with the public policies of the Federal Government and state, local government, or tribal government. This includes, among other things, past and current compliance with the:
a. Equal opportunity and nondiscrimination laws
b. Five affirmative steps described at 2 C.F.R. § 200.321(b) for all subcontracting under contracts supported by FEMA financial assistance; and FEMA Procurement Guidance June 21, 2016 Page IV- 7 c. Applicable prevailing wage laws, regulations, and executive orders

Affirmative Steps
For any subcontracting opportunities, Contractor must take the following Affirmative steps:

1. Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists;

2. Assuring that small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources;

3. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises;

4. Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which encourage participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises; and

5. Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce.

Prevailing Wage Requirements
When applicable, the awarded Contractor (s) and any and all subcontractor(s) agree to comply with all laws regarding prevailing wage rates including the Davis-Bacon Act, applicable to this solicitation and/or Participating Public Agencies. The Participating Public Agency shall notify the Contractor of the applicable pricing/prevailing wage rates and must apply any local wage rates requested. The Contractor and any subcontractor(s) shall comply with the prevailing wage rates set by the Participating Public Agency.

Federal Requirements
If products and services are issued in response to an emergency or disaster recovery the items below, located in this FEMA Special Conditions section of the Federal Funds Certifications, are activated and required when federal funding may be utilized.
2 C.F.R. § 200.326 and 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II, Required Contract Clauses

1. CONTRACT REMEDIES
Contracts for more than the federal simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), the dollar amount below which an NFE may purchase property or services using small purchase methods, currently set at $250,000 for procurements made on or after June 20, 2018,4 must address administrative, contractual, or legal remedies in instances where contractors violate or breach contract terms and must provide for sanctions and penalties as appropriate.

Version June 28, 2023

1.1 Applicability
This contract provision is required for contracts over the SAT, currently set at $250,000 for procurements made on or after June 20, 2018. Although not required for contracts at or below the SAT, FEMA suggests including a remedies provision.

1.2 Additional Considerations
For FEMA’s Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program, recipients must include a penalty clause in all contracts for any AFG-funded vehicle, regardless of dollar amount. In that situation, the contract must include a clause addressing that non-delivery by the contract’s specified date or other vendor nonperformance will require a penalty of no less than $100 per day until such time that the vehicle, compliant with the terms of the contract, has been accepted by the recipient. This penalty clause should, however, account for force majeure or acts of God. AFG recipients should refer to the applicable year’s Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for additional information, which can be accessed at FEMA.gov.

2. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE AND CONVENIENCE

a. Standard. All contracts in excess of $10,000 must address termination for cause and for convenience by the non-Federal entity, including the manner by which it will be effected and the basis for settlement. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(B). b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement programs.

3. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY

When applicable:

a. Standard. Except as otherwise provided under 41 C.F.R.

Reg. 12319, 12935, 3 C.F.R. Part, 1964-1965 Comp., p.
339), as amended by Executive Order 11375, Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating to Equal Employment Opportunity, and implementing regulations at 41 C.F.R. Part 60 (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal Employment Opportunity, Department of Labor). See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(C). b. Key Definitions.
i. Federally Assisted Construction Contract. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-

1.3 defines a “federally assisted construction contract” as any agreement or modification thereof between any applicant and a person for construction work which is paid for in whole or in part with funds obtained from the Government or borrowed on the credit of the Government pursuant to any Federal program involving a grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, or undertaken pursuant to any Federal program involving such grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, or any application or modification thereof approved by the Government for a grant, contract, Version June 28, 2023
loan, insurance, or guarantee under which the applicant itself participates in the construction work.

ii. Construction Work. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.3 defines “construction work” as the construction, rehabilitation, alteration, conversion, extension, demolition or repair of buildings, highways, or other changes or improvements to real property, including facilities providing utility services.

This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement programs.
d. Required Language. The regulation at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-1.4(b) requires the insertion of the following contract clause.

During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
(1) The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following:

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. The contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
(2) The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
(3) The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the contractor's legal duty to furnish information.
(4) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of the contractor's commitments under this section and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment. (5) The contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September Version June 28, 2023
24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor. (6) The contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders. (7) In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.

The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance:

Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.

The applicant further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work: Provided, That if the applicant so participating is a State or local government, the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality or subdivision of such government which does not participate in work on or under the contract.

The applicant agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge of the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance.

The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the applicant agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: Cancel, terminate, or Version June 28, 2023
suspend in whole or in part this grant (contract, loan, insurance, guarantee); refrain from extending any further assistance to the applicant under the program with respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assurance of future compliance has been received from such applicant; and refer the case to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal proceedings.

6. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT

a. Standard. Where applicable (see 40 U.S.C. §§ 3701-3708), all contracts awarded by the non-Federal entity in excess of $100,000 that involve the employment of mechanics or laborers must include a provision for compliance with 40 U.S.C. §§ 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations at 29 C.F.R. Part 5. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(E). Under 40 U.S.C. § 3702, each contractor must be required to compute the wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in the work week. Further, no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous.
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA contracts awarded by the non- federal entity in excess of $100,000 under grant and cooperative agreement programs that involve the employment of mechanics or laborers. It is applicable to construction work. These requirements do not apply to the purchase of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence.
c. Suggested Language. The regulation at 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(b) provides contract clause language concerning compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. FEMA suggests including the following contract clause:

Compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. (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 (b)(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 (b)(1) of this section, in the sum of
$27 for each calendar day on which such individual 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 (b)(1) of this section. (3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The Federal agency or Version June 28, 2023
loan/grant recipient 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 (b)(2) of this section.
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraph (b)(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 (b)(1) through (4) of this section.

7. RIGHTS TO INVENTIONS MADE UNDER A CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT

a. Standard. If the FEMA award meets the definition of “funding agreement” under 37C.F.R. § 401.2(a) and the non-Federal entity wishes to enter into a contract with a small business firm or nonprofit organization regarding the substitution of parties, assignment or performance of experimental, developmental, or research work under that “funding agreement,” the non- Federal entity must comply with the requirements of 37 C.F.R. Part 401 (Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements), and any implementing regulations issued by FEMA. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(F). b. Applicability. This requirement applies to “ funding agreements,” but it DOES NOT apply to the Public Assistance, Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Fire Management Assistance Grant Program, Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Grant Program, Disaster Case Management Grant Program, and Federal Assistance to Individuals and Households – Other Needs Assistance Grant Program, as FEMA awards under these programs do not meet the definition of “funding agreement.”
c. Funding Agreements Definition. The regulation at 37 C.F.R. § 401.2(a) defines “funding agreement” as any contract, grant, or cooperative agreement entered into between any Federal agency, other than the Tennessee Valley Authority, and any contractor for the performance of experimental, developmental, or research work funded in whole or in part by the Federal government. This term also includes any assignment, substitution of parties, or subcontract of any type entered into for the performance of experimental, developmental, or research work under a funding agreement as defined in the first sentence of this paragraph.

8. CLEAN AIR ACT AND THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT

a. Standard. If applicable, contracts must contain a provision that requires the contractor to agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders, or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. §§ 7401-7671q.) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. §§ 1251-1387).

9. DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION

a. Standard. Non-Federal entities and contractors are subject to the debarment and suspension regulations implementing Executive Order 12549, Debarment and Suspension (1986) and Executive Order 12689, Debarment and Suspension (1989) at 2 C.F.R. Part 180 and the Department of Homeland Security’s regulations at 2 C.F.R. Part 3000 (Non-procurement Debarment and Suspension).
b. Applicability. This requirement applies to all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement programs.

c. Requirements.

Version June 28, 2023
i. These regulations restrict awards, subawards, and contracts with certain parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in Federal assistance programs and activities. See 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II(H); and 2 C.F.R. § 200.213. A contract award must not be made to parties listed in the SAM Exclusions. SAM Exclusions is the list maintained by the General Services Administration that contains the names of parties debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies, as well as parties declared ineligible under statutory or regulatory authority other than Executive Order 12549.

SAM exclusions can be accessed at www.sam.gov. See 2 C.F.R. § 180.530. ii. In general, an “excluded” party cannot receive a Federal grant award or a contract within the meaning of a “covered transaction,” to include subawards and subcontracts. This includes parties that receive Federal funding indirectly, such as contractors to recipients and subrecipients. The key to the exclusion is whether there is a “covered transaction,” which is any non-procurement transaction (unless excepted) at either a “primary” or “secondary” tier. Although “covered transactions” do not include contracts awarded by the Federal Government for purposes of the non-procurement common rule and DHS’s implementing regulations, it does include some contracts awarded by recipients and subrecipients.

iii. Specifically, a covered transaction includes the following contracts for goods or services:

1. The contract is awarded by a recipient or subrecipient in the amount of at least $25,000.

2. The contract requires the approval of FEMA, regardless of amount.

3. The contract is for federally-required audit services.

4. A subcontract is also a covered transaction if it is awarded by the contractor of a recipient or subrecipient and requires either the approval of FEMA or is in excess of $25,000.

d. Suggested Language. The following provides a debarment and suspension clause. It incorporates an optional method of verifying that contractors are not excluded or disqualified.

Suspension and Debarment
(1) This contract is a covered transaction for purposes of 2 C.F.R. pt. 180 and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000. As such, the contractor is required to verify that none of the contractor’s principals (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.995) or its affiliates (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.905) are excluded (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.940) or disqualified (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.935).

(2) The contractor must comply with 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C, and must include a requirement to comply with these regulations in any lower tier covered transaction it enters into.

(3) This certification is a material representation of fact relied upon by the Participating Version June 28, 2023
Public Agency. If it is later determined that the contractor did not comply with 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C, in addition to remedies available to the Participating Public Agency, the Federal Government may pursue available remedies, including but not limited to suspension and/or debarment.

(4) The bidder or proposer agrees to comply with the requirements of 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C while this offer is valid and throughout the period of any contract that may arise from this offer. The bidder or proposer further agrees to include a provision requiring such compliance in its lower tier covered transactions.

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM

Public Agency Instructions
This page provides guidance to public agencies entering into contracts with business entities that are required to file Political Contribution Disclosure forms with the agency. It is not intended to be provided to contractors. What follows are instructions on the use of form local units can provide to contractors that are required to disclose political contributions pursuant to N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 (P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2). Additional information on the process is available in Local Finance Notice 2006-1 ( http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/resources/lfns_2006.html). Please refer back to these instructions for the appropriate links, as the Local Finance Notices include links that are no longer operational.

1. The disclosure is required for all contracts in excess of $17,500 that are not awarded pursuant to a “fair and open” process (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.7).

2. Due to the potential length of some contractor submissions, the public agency should consider allowing data to be submitted in electronic form (i.e., spreadsheet, pdf file, etc.). Submissions must be kept with the contract documents or in an appropriate computer file and be available for public access. The form is worded to accept this alternate submission. The text should be amended if electronic submission will not be allowed.

3. The submission must be received from the contractor and on file at least 10 days prior to award of the contract.

Resolutions of award should reflect that the disclosure has been received and is on file.

4. The contractor must disclose contributions made to candidate and party committees covering a wide range of public agencies, including all public agencies that have elected officials in the county of the public agency, state legislative positions, and various state entities. The Division of Local Government Services recommends that contractors be provided a list of the affected agencies. This will assist contractors in determining the campaign and political committees of the officials and candidates affected by the disclosure. a. The Division has prepared model disclosure forms for each county. They can be downloaded from the “County PCD Forms” link on the Pay-to-Play web site at http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/programs/lpcl.html#12 .

They will be updated from time-to-time as necessary.
b. A public agency using these forms should edit them to properly reflect the correct legislative district(s). As the forms are county-based, they list all legislative districts in each county. Districts that do not represent the public agency should be removed from the lists.
c. Some contractors may find it easier to provide a single list that covers all contributions, regardless of the county.

These submissions are appropriate and should be accepted. d. The form may be used “as-is”, subject to edits as described herein. e. The “Contractor Instructions” sheet is intended to be provided with the form. It is recommended that the Instructions and the form be printed on the same piece of paper. The form notes that the Instructions are printed on the back of the form; where that is not the case, the text should be edited accordingly. f. The form is a Word document and can be edited to meet local needs, and posted for download on web sites, used as an e-mail attachment, or provided as a printed document.

5. It is recommended that the contractor also complete a “Stockholder Disclosure Certification.” This will assist the local unit in its obligation to ensure that contractor did not make any prohibited contributions to the committees listed on the Business Entity Disclosure Certification in the 12 months prior to the contract (See Local Finance Notice 2006-7 for additional information on this obligation at http://www.nj.gov/dca/divisions/dlgs/resources/lfns_2006.html). A sample Certification form is part of this package and the instruction to complete it is included in the Contractor Instructions. NOTE: This section is not applicable to Boards of Education.

C. 271 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION DISCLOSURE FORM

Contractor Instructions
Business entities (contractors) receiving contracts from a public agency that are NOT awarded pursuant to a “fair and open” process (defined at N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.7) are subject to the provisions of P.L. 2005, c. 271, s.2 (N.J.S.A. 19:44A-

20.26). This law provides that 10 days prior to the award of such a contract, the contractor shall disclose contributions to:
any State, county, or municipal committee of a political party any legislative leadership committee*
any continuing political committee (a.k.a., political action committee) any candidate committee of a candidate for, or holder of, an elective office:
o of the public entity awarding the contract
o of that county in which that public entity is located o of another public entity within that county
o or of a legislative district in which that public entity is located or, when the public entity is a county, of any legislative district which includes all or part of the county

The disclosure must list reportable contributions to any of the committees that exceed $300 per election cycle that were made during the 12 months prior to award of the contract. See N.J.S.A. 19:44A-8 and 19:44A-16 for more details on reportable contributions.

N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26 itemizes the parties from whom contributions must be disclosed when a business entity is not a natural person. This includes the following:
individuals with an “interest” ownership or control of more than 10% of the profits or assets of a business entity or 10% of the stock in the case of a business entity that is a corporation for profit all principals, partners, officers, or directors of the business entity or their spouses any subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity IRS Code Section 527 New Jersey based organizations, directly or indirectly controlled by the business entity and filing as continuing political committees, (PACs).

When the business entity is a natural person, “a contribution by that person’s spouse or child, residing therewith, shall be deemed to be a contribution by the business entity.” [N.J.S.A. 19:44A-20.26(b)] The contributor must be listed on the disclosure.

Any business entity that fails to comply with the disclosure provisions shall be subject to a fine imposed by ELEC in an amount to be determined by the Commission which may be based upon the amount that the business entity failed to report.

The enclosed list of agencies is provided to assist the contractor in identifying those public agencies whose elected official and/or candidate campaign committees are affected by the disclosure requirement. It is the contractor’s responsibility to identify the specific committees to which contributions may have been made and need to be disclosed. The disclosed information may exceed the minimum requirement.

The enclosed form, a content-consistent facsimile, or an electronic data file containing the required details (along with a signed cover sheet) may be used as the contractor’s submission and is disclosable to the public under the Open Public Records Act.

The contractor must also complete the attached Stockholder Disclosure Certification. This will assist the agency in meeting its obligations under the law. NOTE: This section does not apply to Board of Education contracts.

* N.J.S.A. 19:44A-3(s): “The term "legislative leadership committee" means a committee established, authorized to be established, or designated by the President of the Senate, the Minority Leader of the Senate, the Speaker of the General Assembly or the Minority Leader of the General Assembly pursuant to section 16 of P.L.1993, c.65 (C.19:44A-10.1) for the purpose of receiving contributions and making expenditures.” • •

Construction Activities

Equal Employment Opportunity (Does not apply for supplies/raw materials procurements) Equal Employment Opportunity
All construction contracts in excess of $10,000 by grantees and their contractors or subgrantees shall contain a provision requiring compliance with Executive Order 11246, entitled "Equal Employment Opportunity", as amended by Executive Order 11375, and as supplemented in Department of Labor regulations (41 C.F.R. Part 60). The following clauses shall be included:

Nondiscrimination

During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:

a. The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin. Such action shall include but not be limited to the following: 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. The contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.

b. The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, disability, or national origin.

c. The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which it has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the labor union or workers' representative of the contractor's commitments under Section 202 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment.

d. The contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.

e. The contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by the rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the Secretary of Labor and the FTA for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.

f. In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this agreement or with any of such rules, regulations or orders, this agreement may be cancelled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared ineligible for further Federal or Federally assisted contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive No. Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.

g. The contractor will include the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (g) of this subsection in every subcontract or purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant to Section 204 of Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such provisions shall be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the Secretary of Labor or the FTA may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance; provided, however, that if a contractor becomes involved in, or is

threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States."

Specifications

The following clauses must also be included in all construction contracts and subcontracts over $10,000, in geographical areas designated pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.3:

"Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications (Executive Order No. 11246):

1. As used in these specifications:

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

b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority;

c. "Employer Identification Number" means the federal social security number used on the employer's quarterly federal tax return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.

d. "Minority" includes:

i. Black (all persons having origins in any of the black African racial groups not of Hispanic origin);

ii. Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race);

iii. Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and

iv. American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and participation or community identification).

2. Whenever the contractor, or any subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the notice which contains the applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the solicitations from which this contract resulted.

3. If the contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.5) in a hometown plan approved by the U.S.

Department of Labor in the covered area, either individually or through an association, its affirmative action obligations on all work in the plan area (including goals and timetables) shall be in accordance with that plan for those trades which have unions participating in the plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation in and compliance with the provisions of any such hometown plan. Each contractor or subcontractor participating in an approved plan is individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause, and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the plan in each trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith performance by other contractors or subcontractors toward a goal in an approved plan does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's failure to make good faith efforts to achieve the plan goals and timetables.

4. The contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in paragraphs (7)(a) through (p) of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of employment and training of minority and female utilization the contractor should reasonably be able to achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area. Covered construction contractors performing construction work in geographical areas where they do not have a Federal or Federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals established for the geographical area where the work is being performed. Goals are published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and such notices may be obtained from any Federal Contract Compliance Program Office or from Federal Procurement Contracting Officers. The contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress toward its goal in each craft during the period specified.

5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union with whom the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive Order No. 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.

6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the contractor during the training period, and the contractor must have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability of employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs approved by the U. S. Department of Labor.

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

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

b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources, provide written notice to minority and female recruitment sources and to community organizations when the contractor or its unions have employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.

c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of each minority and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source or community organization and of what action was taken with respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the contractor by the union or, if referred, not employed by the contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever additional actions the contractor may have taken.

d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or unions with which the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the contractor a minority person or woman sent by the contractor, or when the contractor has other information that the union referral process has impeded the contractor's efforts to meet its obligations.

e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for the area which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the contractor's employment needs, especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under (7)(b) above.

f. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the contractor in meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report, etc.; by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority and female employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where construction work is performed.

g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations under these specifications with all employees having responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific review of these items with on-site supervisory personnel such as superintendents, general foreman, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A written record shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.

h. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising in the news media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing written notification to and discussing the contractor's EEO policy with other contractors and subcontractors with whom the contractor does or anticipates doing business.

i. Direct recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female, and community organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority and female recruitment and training organizations serving the contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the contractor shall send written notice to organizations such as the above, describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the selection process.

j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons and women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation employment to minority and female youth, both on the site and in other areas of the contractor's work force.

k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so under 41 C.F.R. Part 60-3.

l. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.

m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments, and other personnel practices do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the contractor's obligations under these specifications are being carried out.

n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated except that separate or single- user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between sexes.

o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and other business associations.

p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance under the contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.

8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations that assist in fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations set forth in paragraphs (7)(a) through (p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union, contractor-community, or other similar group of which the contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling any one or more of its obligations under paragraphs (7)(a) through (p) of these specifications, provided that the contractor actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure that the group has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensures that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the contractor's minority and female work force participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and timetables, and can provide access to documentation that demonstrates the effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the contractor. The obligation to comply, however, is the contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the contractor's noncompliance.

9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been established. The contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female, and all women, both minority and non-minority. Consequently, the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner (even though the contractor has achieved its goal for women generally, the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is underutilized).

10. The contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action standards to discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

11. The contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm debarred from government contracts pursuant to Executive Order No. 11246.

12. The contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these specifications and of the equal opportunity clause, including suspension, termination and cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall be in violation of these specifications and Executive Order No. 11246, as amended.

13. The contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in paragraph (7) of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the contractor fails to comply with the requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications, the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 C.F.R. 60-4.8.

14. The contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to keep records. Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address, telephone numbers, construction trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and locations at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the extent that existing records satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required to maintain separate records.

15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other laws that establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant Program)."

Notice

Contractor agrees to include the following notice in all construction subcontracts over $10,000, in geographical areas designated pursuant to 41 C.F.R. 60-4.2:

"Notice of Requirement for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity (Executive Order 11246):

1. The offeror's or bidder's attention is called to the "Equal Opportunity Clause" and the "Standard Federal Equal Employment Specifications" set forth herein.

2. a. The goals and the timetables for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the contractor's aggregate work force in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows:

Timetables

Goals for Minority
Participation for Each Trade

Goals for Female
Participation in Each Trade

Insert Goals for Each Year

Insert Goals for Each Year

b. These goals are applicable to all the contractor's construction work (whether or not it is Federal or Federally assisted) performed in the covered area. If the contractor performs construction work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, it shall apply the goals established for such geographical area where the work is actually performed. With regard to this second area, the contractor also is subject to the goals for both its Federally involved and nonfederally involved construction.

c. The contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-4 shall be based on its implementation of the Equal Opportunity Clause, specific affirmative action obligations required by the specifications set forth at 41 C.F.R. Part 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to meet the goals.

The hours of minority and female employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects. The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from contractor to contractor or from project to project for the sole purpose of meeting the contractor's goals shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order, and the regulations in C.F.R.

Part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured against the total work hours performed.

3. The contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification shall list the name, address, and telephone number of the subcontractor; employer identification number of the subcontractor; estimated dollar amount of the subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the subcontract; and the geographical area in which the subcontract is to be performed.

4. As used in this notice, and in the contract resulting from this solicitation, the "covered area" is miscellaneous sites within the city limits of Tucson, Pima County, State of Arizona."

Subpart A--Davis-Bacon and Related
Acts Provisions and Procedures

Sec. 5.5 Contract provisions and related
matters.

(1) Minimum wages - (i) All laborers and
mechanics employed or working upon the site
of the work (or under the United States
Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act
of 1949 in the construction or development of
the project), 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)(iv) 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 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 Part 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 classifications and
wage rates conformed under paragraph (1)(ii)
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.

(ii)(A) 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:

(1) Except with respect to helpers as defined
as 29 CFR 5.2(n)(4), the work to be
performed by the classification requested is
not performed by a classification in the wage
determination; and

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

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

(4) With respect to helpers as defined in 29
CFR 5.2(n)(4), such a classification prevails in
the area in which the work is performed.

(B) 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.

(C) 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 Administrator for determination. The
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.

(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits
where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(ii) (B) or (C) 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.

(iii) 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.

(iv) 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.
(v)(A) The contracting officer shall require that
any class of laborers or mechanics 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 therefor only
when the following criteria have been met:

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

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

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

(B) 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, 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.

(C) 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 Administrator for determination. The
Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will issue a determination with
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.

(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits
where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(v) (B) or (C) 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.

(2) Withholding - Sun Tran 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
(or under the United States Housing Act of
1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the
construction or development of the project),
all or part of the wages required by the
contract, Sun Tran may, after written notice to
the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner,
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 - (i) 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 (or
under the United States Housing Act of 1937,
or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the
construction or development of the project).

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.

(ii)(A) The contractor shall submit weekly for
each week in which any contract work is
performed a copy of all payrolls to Sun Tran
for transmission to the Federal Transit
Administration. The payrolls submitted shall
set out accurately and completely all of the
information required to be maintained under
section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR
part 5. This information may be submitted in
any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is
available for this purpose and may be
purchased from the Superintendent of
Documents (Federal Stock Number 029-005-
00014-1), U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402. The prime contractor
is responsible for the submission of copies of
payrolls by all subcontractors.

(B) 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:
(1) That the payroll for the payroll period
contains the information required to be
maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of
Regulations, 29 CFR part 5 and that such
information is correct and complete;

(2) 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;

(3) 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.

(C) 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 (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section.

(D) 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.

(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall
make the records required under paragraph
(a)(3)(i) of this section available for
inspection, copying, or transcription by
authorized representatives of the Federal
Transit Administration 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 Federal agency may, after
written notice to the contractor, sponsor,
applicant, or owner, 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 - (i)
Apprentices - 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, Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or with a State Apprenticeship
Agency recognized by the Bureau, 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 Bureau of
Apprenticeship and Training 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 of the
Wage and Hour Division of the U.S.

Department of Labor determines that a
different practice prevails for the applicable
apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid
in accordance with that determination. In the
event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency
recognized by the Bureau, 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.

(ii) Trainees - 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 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.

(iii) 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.

(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 in any subcontracts
the clauses contained in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)
through (10) and such other clauses as the
Federal Transit Administration may by
appropriate instructions require, and also a
clause requiring the subcontractors to include
these clauses 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. (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 - (i) 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).

(ii) 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).

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

Contract Work Hours and
Safety Standards

(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 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 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 - Sun Tran 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 paragraphs (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.

When such a deduction is made the additional records required under Sec. 516.25(a) of this title shall be kept.
(k) Any deduction for the cost of safety equipment of nominal value purchased by the employee as his own property for his personal protection in his work, such as safety shoes, safety glasses, safety gloves, and hard hats, if such equipment is not required by law to be furnished by the employer, if such deduction is not violative of the Fair Labor Standards Act or prohibited by other law, if the cost on which the deduction is based does not exceed the actual cost to the employer where the equipment is purchased from him and does not include any direct or indirect monetary return to the employer where the equipment is purchased from a third person, and if the deduction is either

Planning, Research, Development and Demonstration Projects

Patent And Rights In Data - 37 CFR Part 401, 49 CFR Parts 18 and 19

CONTRACTS INVOLVING EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, OR RESEARCH WORK.

A. Rights in Data - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental or research work:

1. The term "subject data" used in this clause means recorded information, whether or not copyrighted, that is delivered or specified to be delivered under the contract. The term includes graphic or pictorial delineation in media such as drawings or photographs; text in specifications or related performance or design-type documents; machine forms such as punched cards, magnetic tape, or computer memory printouts; and information retained in computer memory.

Examples include, but are not limited to: computer software, engineering drawings and associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical reports, catalog item identifications, and related information. The term "subject data" does not include financial reports, cost analyses, and similar information incidental to contract administration.

2. The following restrictions apply to all subject data first produced in the performance of the contract to which this Attachment has been added:

a. Except for its own internal use, the Purchaser or Contractor may not publish or reproduce subject data in whole or in part, or in any manner or form, nor may the Purchaser or Contractor authorize others to do so, without the written consent of the Federal Government, until such time as the Federal Government may have either released or approved the release of such data to the public; this restriction on publication, however, does not apply to any contract with an academic institution.

b. In accordance with 49 C.F.R. § 18.34 and 49 C.F.R. § 19.36, the Federal Government reserves a royalty-free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, for "Federal Government purposes," any subject data or copyright described in subsections (2)(b)1 and (2)(b)2 of this clause below.

As used in the previous sentence, "for Federal Government purposes," means use only for the direct purposes of the Federal Government. Without the copyright owner's consent, the Federal Government may not extend its Federal license to any other party.

1. Any subject data developed under that contract, whether or not a copyright has been obtained; and

2. Any rights of copyright purchased by the Purchaser or Contractor using Federal assistance in whole or in part provided by FTA.

c. When FTA awards Federal assistance for experimental, developmental, or research work, it is FTA's general intention to increase transportation knowledge available to the public, rather than to restrict the benefits resulting from the work to participants in that work.

Therefore, unless FTA determines otherwise, the Purchaser and the Contractor performing experimental, developmental, or research work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment is added agrees to permit FTA to make available to the public, either FTA's license in the copyright to any subject data developed in the course of that contract, or a copy of the subject data first produced under the contract for which a copyright has

not been obtained. If the experimental, developmental, or research work, which is the subject of the underlying contract, is not completed for any reason whatsoever, all data developed under that contract shall become subject data as defined in subsection (a) of this clause and shall be delivered as the Federal Government may direct. This subsection (c) , however, does not apply to adaptations of automatic data processing equipment or programs for the Purchaser or Contractor's use whose costs are financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA for transportation capital projects.

d. Unless prohibited by state law, upon request by the Federal Government, the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the Federal Government, its officers, agents, and employees acting within the scope of their official duties against any liability, including costs and expenses, resulting from any willful or intentional violation by the Purchaser or Contractor of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data furnished under that contract. Neither the Purchaser nor the Contractor shall be required to indemnify the Federal Government for any such liability arising out of the wrongful act of any employee, official, or agents of the Federal Government.

e. Nothing contained in this clause on rights in data shall imply a license to the Federal Government under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope of any license or other right otherwise granted to the Federal Government under any patent.

f. Data developed by the Purchaser or Contractor and financed entirely without using Federal assistance provided by the Federal Government that has been incorporated into work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment has been added is exempt from the requirements of subsections (b), (c), and (d) of this clause , provided that the Purchaser or Contractor identifies that data in writing at the time of delivery of the contract work.

g. Unless FTA determines otherwise, the Contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA.

3. Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (i.e., a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual, etc.), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S.

Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R. Part 401.

4. The Contractor also agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA.

B. Patent Rights - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental, or research work:

1. General - If any invention, improvement, or discovery is conceived or first actually reduced to practice in the course of or under the contract to which this Attachment has been added, and that invention, improvement, or discovery is patentable under the laws of the United States of America or any foreign country, the Purchaser and Contractor agree to take actions necessary to provide immediate notice and a detailed report to the party at a higher tier until FTA is ultimately notified.

2. Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S.

Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements,"

3. If any of the above information is omitted or incomplete, then the Protestor shall be notified, in writing, within two (2) calendar days after that determination, and the Protestor shall have two (2) calendar days in which to remedy the specified problem.

4. The City will not make award prior to the resolution of a protest, or open bids prior to resolution of a protest filed before bid opening unless the Procurement Director determines in writing that it is in the best interests of the City or in keeping with Item 7 of this procedure to do otherwise. Potential contractors will be advised of a pending protest if the protest is filed before award.

5. The Procurement Director may allow for an informal conference on the merits of a protest with all interested parties allowed to attend. Interested parties include all bidders/offerors, and may also include a subcontractor or supplier provided they have a substantial economic interest in a portion of the IFB or RFP.

6. The Procurement Director shall respond "in writing", in detail, to each substantial issue raised in the protest. The Procurement Director has the sole authority to make determinations for the City, and a determination shall be considered final when it is labeled as such. A request for reconsideration will be allowed by the Procurement Director if he determines that data has become available that was not previously known, or that there has been an error of law or regulation.

7. The City may proceed with a procurement when a protest is pending if the City determines that:

A. The items to be procured are urgently required;

B. Delivery or performance will be unduly delayed by failure to make the award promptly; or

C. Failure to make award will otherwise cause undue harm to the grantee for the Federal Government.

8. FTA will only entertain a protest that alleges:

1. The City failed to have or to adhere to its protest procedures, or failed to review a complaint or protest; or

2. Violations of Federal law or regulation.

A protest to FTA must be filed in accordance with FTA Circular 4220.1F, available from the Contract Officer.

Specifically, protestors shall file a protest with FTA Region 9 or FTA Headquarters Office no later than five (5) days after a final decision is rendered under the City's protest procedure. In instances where the protestor alleges that the City failed to make a final determination on the protest, protestors shall file a protest with FTA not later than five (5) calendar days after the protester knew or should have known of the grantee's failure to render a final determination on the protest.

A protest filed with FTA shall:

A. Include the name and address of the protestor.

B. Identify the grantee, project number, and the number of the contract solicitation.

C. Contain a statement of the grounds for protest and any supporting documentation. This should detail the alleged failure to have or adhere to protest procedures, failure to review a complaint or protest; or Violation of Federal law or regulation.

D. Include a copy of the local protest filed with the grantee and a copy of the grantee's decision, if any.

CITY OF CARSON 701 East Carson Street
Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, July 21, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 22. To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Dr. Arlington Rodgers, Director of Public Works PW Operations Subject: CONSIDER AWARDING A PUBLIC WORKS AGREEMENT TO PRO INSTALLATIONS INC. DBAPROSPECTRA CONTRACT FLOORING FOR THE CARSON EVENT CENTER FLOORING REPLACEMENTPROJECT (CITY COUNCIL) I. SUMMARY
Staff recommends that the City Council award a Public Works Agreement to Pro Installations Inc. dba Prospectra Contract Flooring, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder under Invitation for Bids (IFB) 26-14, in an amount not to exceed $87,163. The project includes removal of the existing flooring, surface preparation, moisture mitigation, and installation of new commercial-grade luxury vinyl plank flooring in several high-use areas of the Carson Event Center. As one of the City's busiest public facilities, the Carson Event Center serves residents of all ages through community programs, senior activities, meetings, and special events. These improvements will enhance the facility's appearance, safety, functionality, and long-term durability while reducing future maintenance needs.

Since the City Council approved project funding in March 2026, staff has completed several key milestones to prepare the project for construction. These include purchasing the flooring materials, completing environmental testing that confirmed the absence of asbestos, and conducting a competitive bidding process. Staff also reissued the original bid solicitation after identifying a required prevailing wage disclosure had been omitted, ensuring the procurement process remained fully compliant with State public contracting requirements.

Because the Carson Event Center will remain open during construction, the work will be completed in carefully coordinated phases to minimize impacts to the public while maintaining safe access throughout the facility. Shaw Industries will also provide on-site quality assurance to verify proper installation and preserve the manufacturer's extended warranty. With the flooring materials already delivered and the procurement process complete, the project is ready to begin immediately upon City Council approval. Construction is expected to be completed within approximately 30 working days.

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. AWARD a Public Works Agreement to Pro Installations Inc. dba Prospectra Contract Flooring, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, for the removal of existing flooring, surface preparation, moisture mitigation, and installation of new flooring materials at the Carson Event Center in an amount not to exceed $87,163.00; and,

2. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute the proposed Agreement with Pro Installations Inc. dba Prospectra Contract Flooring, following approval as to form by the City Attorney.

III. ALTERNATIVES

1. TAKE any other action the City Council deems appropriate and consistent with applicable law.

IV. BACKGROUND
The Carson Event Center is one of the City's primary community facilities, hosting a wide variety of public meetings, recreational programs, senior activities, and special events throughout the year. After many years of continuous public use, the existing carpet in several corridors, activity rooms, and other high-traffic areas has reached the end of its useful life and is showing significant wear. Replacing the existing flooring with durable, commercial-grade luxury vinyl plank flooring will improve the appearance, safety, functionality, and long-term maintenance of the facility while allowing it to continue serving the community for many years. City Council has previously taken several actions to advance this project. On March 11, 2026, the City Council approved funding for the flooring replacement project, establishing the budget necessary to move forward. On May 5, 2026, the City Council approved the purchase of commercial-grade luxury vinyl plank flooring from Shaw Industries, Inc. in the amount of $129,309.59 via the cooperative purchasing regulations under Carson Municipal Code Section 2611(g) and Omnia Partners cooperative purchasing agreement #2020002144 (Exhibit 3). Procuring the flooring materials separately from the installation services allowed the City to secure the desired product, control material costs, and proceed with the installation through a competitive bidding process.

Before installation work could begin, staff completed the environmental due diligence necessary to protect both the public and construction workers. Because portions of the existing flooring could potentially contain hazardous building materials due to the age of the facility, the City first conducted environmental testing to determine whether asbestos was present. A purchase order for environmental testing services was issued on May 27, 2026. Field surveys and material sampling were completed on June 4, 2026, and laboratory testing performed by JLM Environmental on June 18, 2026, confirmed that all samples tested negative for asbestos (Exhibit 4). This important milestone eliminated the need for asbestos abatement, allowing the project to move forward safely while avoiding additional construction costs, project delays, and potential impacts to Event Center operations.

Staff also carefully managed the procurement process for the installation work to ensure compliance with California public contracting requirements. An initial Invitation for Bids (IFB 26-13) was released on April 9, 2026. During the bidding process, staff identified that required California prevailing wage language had been inadvertently omitted from the solicitation documents. Prevailing wage laws require contractors working on most public works projects to pay workers minimum wage rates established by the State of California. To ensure the procurement process remained legally compliant, fair, and transparent, staff canceled the original solicitation and issued a corrected Invitation for Bids (IFB 26-14) on April 23, 2026 (Exhibit 1), with the required language included. Although this corrective action extended the project schedule, it protected the integrity of the procurement process and reduced potential legal and contractual risks to the City.

To further support a successful project, staff conducted pre-bid meetings with prospective contractors and Carson Event Center staff before bids were due. These meetings allowed contractors to inspect the project site, verify field conditions and measurements, ask questions, and gain a clear understanding of the City's expectations before preparing their bids. Event Center staff also participated to identify operational considerations based on the facility's daily use and to help coordinate construction activities with ongoing public programs and events. During the pre-bid meetings, staff emphasized that the Carson Event Center would remain open throughout construction.
