Weekly Statement of Working Days
Exhibit 16-A: WEEKLY STATEMENT OF WORKING DAYS

FOOTNOTE INSTRUCTIONS TO RESIDENT ENGINEER

1. When determining if the day is a working day or non-working day, first determine the controlling operation (taken from the critical path of the updated approved project schedule.), second, If you determine the day is a "nonworking day", provide the contractual reason -for example, "clear-wet grade" to describe conditions when the weather is clear, but the grade is too wet. Do not list days merely as "Unworkable". When recording nonworking days due to "other", provide explanation contract lane closure restrictions, State of emergency, area-wide labor strike, etc.

2. List numbers of change orders providing for time extensions.

3. Do not include nonworking days which occur after expiration of the Extended Date of Completion. On contracts that are overtime, the total under Working Days Shall not be greater than the total of revised Working Days (line7). After approved total of working days has been reached, continue recording working and nonworking days but do not add into the totals. Make a statement under Remarks that working and nonworking days are shown for record only since the contact time has elapsed.

If an extension of time is subsequently approved, determine the new Extended Date by taking into account all nonworking days that are reachable.

4. From the calendar issued by the Division of Construction with working days numbered for convenience in computations.

5. Determine the controlling activity from the updated approved contract schedule. If the controlling activity is completed in the middle of the week and a new one begins, make this clear. For example, "Class 2 base -M, T, W; HMA -Th, Fri." This is not the place to list all the operations the contractor worked on for the week. Record that information in the Daily Report or under "remarks" if you wish.

6. Column F (lines 1-10) is informational only and tracks those days determined in column D to be working days, but the Contractor failed to work on the controlling operation.

Notice Regarding Assembly Bill 626

281
NOTICE REGARDING ASSEMBLY BILL 626

Assembly Bill 626 (AB 626), signed into law September 29, 2016, established a new claim resolution process for public works project contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2017. AB 626 is codified in Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code. Section 9204 remains in effect until January 1, 2020, and as of that date will be repealed unless another statute extends or deletes this sunset date.

Public Contract Code Section 9204 applies to any “claim,” as defined in Section 9204, which is presented by the Contractor to the City. Section 9204 defines a “claim” as a separate demand by the Contractor sent by registered mail or certified mail with return receipt requested, for one or more of the following: (1) a time extension, including, without limitation, for relief from damages or penalties for delay assessed by the City;

(2) payment by the City of money or damages arising from work done by, or on behalf of, the Contractor pursuant to the Contract and payment for which is not otherwise expressly provided or to which the claimant is not otherwise entitled; or (3) payment of an amount that is disputed by the City.

If Contractor presents a claim to the City in accordance with the provisions of Public Contract Code Section 9204 (hereafter referred to as a “Claim”), the process specified in Section 9204 will be followed, and the provisions of Section 4- 8 (Disputed Claims) and Section 4- 9 (Review by Claim Review Committee and Issuance of Decision by Department Director) of the City’s Standard Specifications for Public Construction will not apply to the Claim. Contractor’s Claim shall comply with the provisi ons of Section 4- 7 (Notice of Claims for Additional Compensation or Damages) of the City’s Standard Specifications or Contractor shall give a separate written notice of potential claim that complies with the requirements specified in Section 4-7, except in any case where compliance with the requirements specified in Section 4-7 would conflict with Public Contract Code Section 9204.

A claim that is denied by reason of the public entity’s failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute an adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility or qualifications of the claimant.
(4) Amounts not paid in a timely manner as required by this section shall bear interest at 7 percent per annum.

(e) The text of this section or a summary of it shall be set forth in the plans or specifications for any public works project that may give rise to a claim under this section.
(f) A waiver of the rights granted by this section is void and contrary to public policy, provided, however, that
(1) upon receipt of a claim, the parties may mutually agree to waive, in writing, mediation and proceed directly to the commencement of a civil action or binding arbitration, as applicable; and (2) a public entity may prescribe reasonable change order, claim, and dispute resolution procedures and requirements in addition to the provisions of this section, so long as the contractual provisions do not conflict with or otherwise impair the 284
timeframes and procedures set forth in this section.
(g) This section applies to contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2017. (h) Nothing in this section shall impose liability upon a public entity that makes loans or grants available through a competitive application process, for the failure of an awardee to meet its contractual obligations.
(i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2020, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2020, deletes or extends that date.

TC-1

Caltrans Stormwater Quality Handbooks Section 6
Construction Site BMP Manual Temporary Construction Entrance TC-1 March 2024 1 of 4
Temporary Construction Entrance

De
finition and Purpose
A temporary construction entrance is defined as a point of entrance to a construction site that is stabilized to reduce the tracking of mud and sediment onto public roads by construction vehicles.

Appropriate Applications
■ Where dirt or mud can be tracked onto public roads.
■ Adjacent to water bodies.
■ Where poor soils are encountered.
■ Where dust is a problem during dry weather conditions.

Limitations
■ Site conditions will dictate design and need.
■ Limit the points of entrance/exit to the construction site. ■ Limit speed of vehicles to control dust.

Standards and Specifications
General Requirements
■ Temporary construction entrance must comply with Standard Specification Section 13-7.03 – “Temporary Construction Roadways and Entrances.”
■ Corrugated steel panels must be pressed or shop welded. They should have a slot or hook for coupling the panels together.
290
Temporary Construction Entrance TC-1
Caltrans Stormwater Quality Handbooks Section 6
Construction Site BMP Manual Temporary Construction Entrance TC-1 March 2024 2 of 4
■ Class 8 RSP fabric shall be used to line a temporary construction entrance/exit. Do not drive on the fabric until the rock is spread. Repair damaged fabric by placing new fabric over the damaged area with at least an 18-inch overlap on all edges. ■ Type A rock should be used for a Type 1 temporary construction entrance. Type A rock must comply with Section 13-7.03B (2) of the Standard Specifications. ■ Type B rock should be used for a Type 2 temporary construction entrance. Type B rock must comply with Section 13-7.03B (2) of the Standard Specifications. ■ Submit details for alternative construction entrances at least 5 business days before installation.

This may include alternatives for the sump and corrugated steel panels or to eliminate the sump.

Installation
■ Prepare the location for the temporary construction entrance/exit by:
− Removing vegetation and clearing debris.
− Grading the ground to a uniform plane.
− Removing sharp objects that could damage the fabric.
− Compacting the top 1.5 feet of soil to at least 90 percent relative compaction. ■ Construct the temporary construction entrance by (standard plans attached below):
− Placing the fabric along the length of the construction entrance/exit. − Overlapping fabric ends by at least 12 inches.
− Covering the fabric with rock within 24 hours.
− Spreading rock over the fabric in the direction of traffic. − Keeping a 6-inch layer of rock over the fabric to prevent damage from the spreading equipment.
■ For a Type 2 temporary construction entrance, place rock under the corrugated steel panels.

Use at least six corrugated steel panels for each entrance. Couple the panels together to prevent movement.
■ If a sump is used, install it within 20 feet of the temporary construction entrance.

Other Considerations
■ Implement BMP SC-7, “Street Sweeping” as required under Section 13-4.03F and 13-7 of the Standard Specifications.
■ Require all employees, subcontractors, and suppliers to use the temporary construction entrance. If the construction entrance has metal plates as part of the BMP, all vehicles must be required to use them.
■ Route runoff from temporary construction entrances through a sediment-trapping device before discharge.
■ Design a temporary construction entrance to support the heaviest vehicles and equipment that will use it.
291
Temporary Construction Entrance TC-1

Caltrans Stormwater Quality Handbooks Section 6
Construction Site BMP Manual Temporary Construction Entrance TC-1 March 2024 3 of 4
■ The use of asphalt concrete grindings is not allowed (high potential for leaching hydrocarbons) unless it complies with the Caltrans SWMP. Designate combination or single purpose entrances and exits to the construction site to maintain smooth flow of traffic.

Maintenance and Inspection
■ Inspect before, during and after each rainfall event, and weekly year-round. ■ Inspect immediate site access roads daily; implement SC-7, “Street Sweeping” as needed. ■ Remove aggregate, separate it, and dispose of sediment if temporary construction entrance is clogged with sediment.
■ Keep all temporary construction entrance ditches clear.

SWPPP or WPCP
Tracking control BMPs are to be included and discussed in Section 600.1.4 for the SWPPP and Section 30.2.3 of the WPCP.

Water Conservation Practices

Standard Symbol

De
finition and Purpose
Water conservation practices are construction methods that minimize the use of water on site or use water in a manner that avoids causing runoff, erosion, and/or the discharge of pollutants to the storm drain system or receiving waters. Proper use of this BMP reduces or prevents non- stormwater discharges.

Appropriate Applications
Water conservation practices are implemented on all construction sites wherever water is used.

Limitations
■ If not implemented correctly, discharges may trigger reporting and monitoring requirements and delay construction work.

Standards and Specifications
■ Keep water equipment in good working condition.
■ Ensure tracking controls are implemented in, near, and around water truck filling areas. ■ Repair water leaks promptly.
■ Authorization is required for activities that could potentially discharge water into a storm drain system or receiving waters.
■ Avoid using water to clean construction areas. Do not wash paved areas with water. Paved areas and roadways should be swept and vacuumed in accordance with SC-7, “Street Sweeping.”
■ Apply water for dust control in accordance with Standard Specifications Section 10-4 – Water Usage and BMP WE-1, “Wind Erosion Control.”
294
Water Conservation Practices NS-1

Caltrans Stormwater Quality Handbooks Section 7
Construction Site BMP Manual Water Conservation Practices NS-1 March 2024 2 of 2
■ Direct construction water runoff to areas where it can infiltrate into the ground or be collected and reused.
■ Manage run-on to minimize contact with job site.
■ Retain water spilled while filling water trucks within the designated water truck filling areas.
