STAFF REPORT
RE: HSIP Sign Repair and Replacement Project MEETING DATE: 01/29/2024 SUBMITTED BY: Ron Ladd, Public Works Director
PURPOSE OF REPORT: ☐Information only ☐ Discussion ☒Action Item WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:

The City Council is being asked to approve supplemental agreement #1 and contract change order #3 with Square Signs LLC dba Front Signs for the HSIP Sign Repair and Replacement Project and authorize the City Manager to execute the supplemental agreement and change order, for the amount of $46,514.00.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

City Council awarded a construction contract to Square Signs LLC dba Front Signs on May 16, 2023, in the amount of $85,336.56. This project consists of the replacement of 574 signs throughout the City Limits that were included in the replacement recommendations from the County Wide Sign Inventory Plan completed in 2019.

Signs include street name signs, guide signs, object markers, stop signs, regulatory and warning signs.

After installation began in October of 2023, it was realized that all the street identification signs should be replaced. Staff began the process of approval through Caltrans to add the balance of street signs not included in the original project. Since the evaluation in 2019, the street sign standard has increased the sign height to 8” from 6” for visibility. The standard also changed the sign color scheme. This contract change order request includes the balance of street signs (172), bringing ALL the street signs within the city limits into compliance with current size and reflectivity standards, and provides uniformity in street identification signage.

New street sign hardware is also included in this change order request. It was the intention to re-use existing hardware but through the installation process, re-use was determined to not be feasible due to weathering, corrosion, and compatibility with the larger sign size.

There have been two contract change orders issued within the authority of the City Manager, for sign size changes. This third change order request changes the original contract price by more than 25%, therefore Council approval of a supplemental agreement is required.

The revised completion date of this project is late March 2024.

On December 30, 2021, staff filed a Notice of Exemption to the State Clearinghouse and County Clerk as required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project was determined to be categorically Meeting Date: 01/29/2024 Page 2 Agenda Item # 1.0
exempt under Section 15301(C) of the CEQA Guidelines as the project consists of the replacement of existing signs involving no expansion of its existing use.

OPTIONS:

1. Approve supplemental agreement #1 and contract change order #3 to the construction contract with Square Signs LLC dba Front Signs for the HSIP Sign Repair and Replacement Project and authorize the City Manager to execute the supplemental agreement and contract change order.

STAFF REPORT
RE: GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Project Award MEETING DATE: 01/29/2024 SUBMITTED BY: Ron Ladd, Public Works Director
PURPOSE OF REPORT: ☐Information only ☐ Discussion ☒Action Item WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:

The City Council is being asked to approve the plans, specifications and working details for the GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Project, award a public works construction contract to the lowest responsible bidder on the project, Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. (WRM) and authorize the City Manager to enter into a construction agreement with Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. for the amount of $444,113.35.

BACKGROUND:

The project consists of rehabilitating the existing pavement on Green Street and Loch Drive and portions of Sayre Street and Hillcrest Drive. The work consists of removing and replacing various damaged sidewalk sections, installing ADA complaint curb ramps, cold planing, and full-depth reclamation-cement treatment on a section of Green St., and new pavement.

The bids were publicly opened on Tuesday, January 16, 2024, with six bids received. Upon reviewing the bid documents, the apparent low bidder, Argonaut Constructors Inc. made an error in the calculations of the total cost of all bid items. Due to the mathematical error, Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. was determined to be the lowest responsible bidder at $444,113.35. Argonaut Constructors did not protest this determination. The engineer’s estimate for this project was $442,271. Construction is estimated to start April 15, 2024, weather permitting.

On January 23, 2024, the City received a bid “advisory” from the Foundation for Fair Contracting (FFC). The FFC letter addressed concerns of patterns of labor code and prevailing wage violations resulting in penalties, inaccurate statements provided in WRM’s bid regarding disclosure of labor code violations, historical noncompliance with apprenticeship requirements, OSHA violations resulting in fines, and California Air Resources Board violations resulting in fines.

On January 23, 2024, the City received a bid advisory from Norcal Construction Industry Compliance (NCIC). The letter addressed both State Water Board and OSHA violations resulting in civil liabilities against WRM.

On January 25, 2024, the City received a bid advisory from the Construction Industry Force Account Council (CIFAC). This organization reiterated the same points of concern over the false information in WRM’s bid pertaining to labor code and other agency violations, demonstrating that WRM is irresponsible based on the definition in the Public Contract Code.

Meeting Date: 01/29/2024 Page 2 Agenda Item # 2.0
339789.1
DISCUSSION:

Although bid advisories are not formal bid protests, WRM was provided all three (3) letters and given the opportunity to respond. WRM provided response letters to the FFC and NCIC bid advisories on January 25, 2024. The letters addressed each point of concern from FFC and NCIC, and provided further explanation. WRM states they “inadvertently marked ‘No’ to two questions on the Bidder Information form” in their response to the FFC advisory. WRM provided a revised Bidder Information Quessionairre with the violations of labor codes listed, as well as ongoing investigations. WRM had not responded to CIFAC’s bid advisory by the deadline to publicly post this meeting’s agenda.

In recommending a contract award, staff must evaluate if the bidder is responsible as defined in Public Contract Code § 1103 as, “a bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity, and experience to satisfactorily perform the public works contract.” WRM’s Experience Statement shows prior experience on pavement rehabilitation projects that are similar in scope and value of the GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Project. Although the omission of labor code violations could be an indication of untrustworthiness, the City does not have evidence that the contrary information provided on the Bidder’s Information Questionnaire was intentionally incorrect. In addition, the City specifically reserved the right to waive technical errors or discrepancies in a submitted bid that do not affect the amount of the bid and do not provide an advantage or benefit not allowed to other bidders. (Instructions to Bidders, Section B1.19, Notice to Bidders and Special Provisions for GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Bid No. 23-02 in Lakeport, California, Nov. 2023, p. 38.) Since neither an affirmative nor negative answer to Question A or B would disqualify a bidder, affect the bid amount, or give a benefit or advantage not allowed to other bidders, City staff considers the omission of violations a waivable, immaterial variance. (Bay Cities Paving & Grading, Inc. v. City of San Leandro (2014) 223 Cal.App.4th 1181, 1188 [city may waive non-material bid irregularities].) The project has $133,000 of funding through the COVID Relief Program. Due to the funding deadline constraints, contract award is required before February 17, 2024. Staff recommends awarding the contract to Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. as rejecting all bids and readvertising would extend the timeline of award past the deadline, resulting in forfeiture of the funding.

The City Council has the discretionary authority to approve the Project’s plans and designs in advance of construction. The Project’s plan and designs were prepared by Paul Curren, the City Engineer, and submitted on November 27, 2023. The Project’s plan and designs were reviewed by the City’s Engineering Division and approved by Kevin Ingram, City Manager, and Ron Ladd, Public Works Director, on November 27, 2023. City staff recommends the City Council approve the Project’s plans and designs, as staff considers them to be reasonable based on the detail of the plans prepared by Paul Curren and the approval granted by Kevin Ingram and Ron Ladd.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE:

Staff filed a Notice of Exemption under the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) on May 31, 2023. This project meets the criteria established in Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines as it consists of repair/maintenance of existing facilities with no expansion; therefore the project was determined to be eligible for a Categorical Exemption.

RE: BID ADVISORY
Bidder: Wylatti Resource Management, Inc.

Awarding Agency: City of Lakeport
Project: GSL Pavement Rehabilitation
FFC Case No.: 1012RP
Dear Ms. Grupp:

The Foundation for Fair Contracting (FFC) is a nonprofit organization which has been serving the public interest since 1985. The objective of the FFC is to monitor compliance with prevailing wage laws pertaining to the construction industry, including informing and educating industry stakeholders. Unbalanced bids raise questions in regard to performance and compliance with the rules and regulations for the payment of prevailing wages, and the safety and well-being of the workforce. It further opens the question of excessive future change orders, the fairness to and rights of other bidders in the bidding process, and the intent of the bidding process in general.

In deference to all bidders and in order for the public interest to best be served, please enter this formal bid advisory against the above-noted contractor as a matter of public record. We respectfully request that Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. (Wylatti) bid be rejected for the following reasons:
• ONGOING VIOLATIONS OF PREVAILING WAGE LAWS RESULTING IN WAGE THEFT
Wylatti has numerous infractions/violations which have resulted in willful circumvention of the Laws and Regulations Governing the Payment of Prevailing Wages, including, but not limited to, violations resulting in wage theft and non-compliance with apprenticeship laws. Wylatti has engaged in this pattern of unlawful activity on various public works prevailing wage projects. Civil Wage and Penalty Assessments have been issued to Wylatti by the State of California, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE), Labor Commissioner’s office. We have provided supporting documentation for your review.

Furthermore, Wylatti is currently under investigation by our offices and the State of California, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE), Labor Commissioner’s office in connection with issues provided below. We have provided supporting documentation for your review.

▪ Misclassifications resulting in underpayments.
▪ Failure to comply with overtime requirements.
▪ Failure to comply with apprenticeship requirements.
▪ Failing to report all workers on certified payrolls.
• FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND FORMAL

APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMS
Wylatti has not made a good faith effort to participate and invest in Local Workforce Development, nor have they participated in local hiring of workers in the community through formal and recognized pre-apprenticeship programs and formal apprenticeship programs for specific apprenticeable crafts. They have failed to request, employ, train, and pay the proper prevailing wages to apprentices.
• AIR QUALITY REGULATION VIOLATIONS RESULTING IN PENTAILES ISSUED BY

CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD (CARB)
Wylatti has failed to abide by and comply with California Code of Regulations and other pertinent legal statues related to air quality pollution. Penalties have been issued to and paid by Wylatti for these actions. We have provided supporting documentation for your review.
• MULTIPLE OSHA VIOLATIONS RESULTING IN FINES ISSUED AND UPHELD Wylatti has multiple safety infractions that have resulted in investigations and fines issued by OSHA. We have provided supporting documentation for your review. • FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH BID SPECIFICATIONS/NON-DISCLOSURE OF

STATE/FEDERAL LAW VIOLATIONS
Wylatti has failed to provide accurate and factual information on the Bidder Information questionnaire, as required by your agency. Information and answers provided by Wylatti have been determined to be false and inaccurate regarding their history of violating State or Federal laws, including State Labor Code. We have provided supporting documentation for your review.

Please contact our office with questions, comments, or clarifications.

Sincerely,
Jesse Jimenez

RE: Response Requested for FFC Bid Advisory
Ms. Grupp,
In response to the protest leƩer draŌed by the FoundaƟon for Fair ContracƟng (FFC), Wylaƫ Resource Management, Inc. (WRM) believes that the issues presented by the FFC in no way resulted in WRM providing an “unbalanced bid”. WRM is prospecƟve low bidder, above engineers esƟmate by 0.4% and below second place Nelson ConstrucƟon by a margin of 3% and third place Consolidated Engineering by

3.6%. This is in no way representaƟve of the FFC’s claim of an “unbalanced bid”.

As for the claims that the FFC presents, we will address these in bullet format as they have been presented to us:
 Ongoing ViolaƟons of Prevailing Wage Laws
WRM has one ‘ongoing’ case against it in relaƟon to the State Labor Code, a complaint filed by the FFC. As this case is ongoing and no judgement has been issued, as of now it is an allegaƟon not a violaƟon.
 Evidence of Penalty Assessment Against (WRM) for Non-Compliance of State Labor Code All of the State Labor Code violaƟons that the FFC cites in their protest state: “Subject firm (WRM) has saƟsfactorily paid all prevailing wages and /or penalƟes found due”.

No protests were filed by WRM in response to these penalƟes. These violaƟons occurred in a Ɵme of growth and staffing turnover and have since been remedied. We have hired more competent staff and remain dedicated to staying on top of the most current State Labor Laws.
 Failure to Comply with Workforce Development and Formal ApprenƟceship Programs The FFC states in their protest that “Wylaƫ has not made a good faith effort to parƟcipate in Local Workforce Development, nor have they parƟcipated in local hiring of workers in the community through formal and recognized pre-apprenƟceship programs...” WRM was started in rural Covelo CA and has since expanded to have its main office in Willits. Of the 80 employees employed by WRM, 99% of them live either in Lake or Mendocino CounƟes. The only allegaƟon that the FCC is making is that we do not use the formal programs, programs that most union companies would use. Instead, we do it the old-fashioned way. We hire people face to face giving them full prevailing wages for whatever trade they fall under on public works projects. We provide opportuniƟes, training new hires at our risk. It is important to note that this very GSL contract will have three foremen (Paving, Concrete, Traffic Control), all of whom were hired with zero experience in the relaƟve trade by WRM when they started their construcƟon careers (apprenƟces) and each from Redwood Valley, Covelo, and Ukiah respecƟvely.
2 The violaƟons that the FFC points towards under Labor Code 1777.5 and 1777.7 in their protest have to do again with the aforemenƟoned staffing turnover and rehiring. The forms (DAS 140 and 142) were not Ɵmely submiƩed; thus, the formal apprenƟceship programs were not made aware of our work. All fines were paid in full without protest.

WRM has since ensured compliance with this program through rehire and training.  Air Quality RegulaƟon ViolaƟons
The alleged violaƟon that the FFC is referring to took place between 2008 and 2009 (having to do with smoke emissions tesƟng) and was seƩled in 2010 for the amount of $5,000 with no protest. Since, our fleet has grown without any violaƟons in the past 13 years.
 OSHA ViolaƟons ResulƟng in Fines Issued
WRM has had (2) alleged OSHA violaƟons of record. The first has to do with minor building repairs at the Geo Aggregates Concrete Plant in Fort Bragg (Under the Wylaƫ Enterprises Umbrella). These repairs (leaky roof, hole in floor) were immediately fixed following the citaƟons and the case seƩled.

The second alleged violaƟon took place with a member of our tree crew on a Caltrans Emergency project. Following the incident, WRM hired a third party outside consultant to revamp the tree division’s Safety Management Program. Since then, all members of the tree crew have undergone labor specific training given by the outside consultant.

This violaƟon is sƟll in the appeals process.
 Failure to Comply with Bid SpecificaƟons/Non-Disclosure of State/Federal Law ViolaƟons WRM inadvertently marked ‘No’ to two quesƟons on the Bidder InformaƟon form. The two quesƟons with the correct informaƟon are set in the AƩachment hereto.

The incorrect responses to the two quesƟons on the Bidder InformaƟon Form are not material elements of the contract specificaƟons. Legal counsel has informed us that the City has the authority to waive inconsequenƟal variances from the bidding documents. (see Bay CiƟes Paving & Grading, Inc. v. City of San Leandro (20140 223 Cal.App. 4th 1181) In our case, the incorrect responses do not affect WRM’s bid, including bonding and insurance requirements. Since the mistake in the Bidder InformaƟon Form does not impact WRM’s bid in any way whatsoever, WRM has no basis to back out of its bid. WRM has no advantage or benefit from its inconsequenƟal error.

As to the violaƟons of law, and the correct responses to the quesƟons, all of the labor Commissioner rulings, except for the $240 penalty, were resolved by January 2021 before my (Selby Ford, Corporate Secretary) employment (June 7, 2021) with WRM.

WRM has a proven record of experience, fitness, and capacity to perform public works contracts. In 2023 Caltrans invited us to be Speaking ParƟcipants on the North Region (D1, D2, & D3) Caltrans Contractor’s Boot Camp panel due to our safety, integrity, and workplace efficiencies proven through our numerous and successful contracts with them. A panel shared jointly with Granite, Ghiloƫ, Golden State Bridge and Flat Iron ConstrucƟon, and a panel for which we have been asked to speak on again this coming February 2024. Wylaƫ Resource Management stands by its balanced bid and is prepared to do the work for the contracted price.

Re: GSL Pavement Rehabilitation (Bid No. 23-02); Bid Advisory Regarding Wylatti Resource Management, Inc.

This bid advisory is submitted by NorCal Construction Industry Compliance (herein "NCIC"), a joint labor-management organization formed pursuant to the Labor Management Cooperation Act of 1978 (29 U.S.C. Sec. 175a). NCIC is committed to ensuring a level playing field for contractors and workers by promoting equitable contracting, and ensuring compliance with all applicable state and federal labor laws governing the construction industry.

INTRODUCTION
NCIC monitors local construction projects to help ensure that fair and open competitive bidding practices are utilized and that taxpayers get the best value for their tax dollars. This is important because the policies underlying our State's competitive bidding laws not only foster fairness among bidders, but also protect the public trust.

Fair competitive bidding acts as a "guard against favoritism, improvidence, extravagance, fraud, and corruption; to prevent the waste of public funds; and to obtain the best result for the public."1 "Competitive bidding laws are passed for the benefit and protection of the taxpaying public, not for the benefit and enrichment of bidders."2 Proper enforcement of these laws results in more responsible contractors bidding and performing public works jobs, reduces instances of health and safety problems, promotes the timely completion of the contracted work, and helps to ensure the final product is of the highest quality and value for the taxpayer dollar.

The City of Lakeport (“City”) opened bids for the GSL Pavement Rehabilitation ("Project") on January 16th, 2024. Wylatti Resource Management, Inc. (“Wylatti”) is the apparent low bidder 1 M & B Const. v. Yuba County Water Agency (1999) 68 Cal.App.4th 1353, 1360; see also Domar Electric, Inc. v. City of Los Angeles (1994) 9 Cal.4th 161, 170-717. 2 Id.

2 on the Project. NCIC has several concerns about Wylatti’s history of prior violations, which are set forth in detail below.

In considering whether to accept Wylatti’s bid, NCIC urges the City to conduct a factual inquiry to determine whether Wylatti qualifies as a "responsive" and "responsible" bidder as required by law. As explained below, NCIC believes that Wylatti may not be a responsible bidder given its recent history of State Water Resources Control Board (“State Water Board”) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) violations.

DISCUSSION

1. Wylatti May Not Be a "Responsible" Bidder as Required by the Public Contract Code In addition to requiring that the bids submitted be responsive, the Public Contract Code also requires the bidder to be responsible.3 The Public Contract Code defines a responsible bidder as a "bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity, and experience to satisfactorily perform the public works contract."4 Wylatti has the following documented litigation history of violations with the State Water Board, and OSHA. NCIC is therefore concerned that, based on its history and violations, Wylatti lacks the qualities of a responsible bidder. NCIC urges the City to conduct a thorough factual investigation into Wylatti's responsibility, including obtaining more specific information about the following:

A. State Water Board Violation
a. According to the attached Administrative Civil Liability (“ACL”) Order in the matter of failure to file Supplemental Statement of Water Diversion and Use for the 2021 through 2022 reporting year, it was alleged by the State Water Board that Wylatti failed to file their supplemental statement(s) for the subject water right(s) by February 1, 2023. Furthermore, on August 11, 2023, the State Water Board issued a Notice of Violation informing Wylatti that the supplemental statement(s) had not been received, and that if the delinquent supplemental statement(s) were filed by August 25, 2023, then the State Water Board would not issue a complaint. However, as of September 5, 2023, Wylatti had not filed the supplemental statement(s) for the subject claim of water right(s), and according to the ACL, the supplemental statement(s) were 216 days late resulting in a maximum administrative civil liability of $108,000.00.

B. OSHA Violations
3 Konica Bus. Machines U.S.A. Inc. v Regents of Univ. of California (1988) 206 Cal.App.3d 449, 454 (“A basic rule of competitive bidding is that bids must conform to specifications, and if a bid does not so confirm, it may not be accepted.”)
4 Public Contract Code §22032.
3 a. A review of publicly available information from the federal OSHA database shows Wylatti had a serious accident5 on March 22, 2023, resulting in $20,735.00 in penalties. The following safety violations were found during OSHA’s inspection:

1. §3421 (M) Injury and Illness Prevention Program

2. §3427 (C)(3)(C) Safe Work Procedures (Serious)
b. A review of publicly available information from the federal OSHA database shows there were numerous violations found during a planned safety inspection6 on April 12, 2023 resulting in $1,120.00 in penalties. The following safety violations were found during OSHA’s inspection:

1. §3212 (A)(2)(A) Floor Openings, Floor Holes, Skylights and Roof

2. §7014(G) Private Roads

CONCLUSION
Adequately investigating issues of non-responsibility goes to the heart of the City’s fiduciary responsibility to taxpayers. In light of the issues described above, NCIC respectfully requests that the City exercise its fiduciary responsibility by rejecting Wylatti’s bid. The City should investigate Wylatti’s recent violations to determine whether they should be considered a “responsible” bidder.

If the City finds that Wylati is not a responsible bidder, the City must either award the Project to the next lowest bidder, Nelson Construction or reject all bids and commence a new round of bidding for the Project.

Please provide a response to this bid advisory by January 26, 2024, that indicates what steps the City will take to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility and to ensure compliance with state competitive bidding laws. We look forward to your response.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this very important matter.

IN THE CITY OF LAKEPORT, CALIFORNIA
[Business & Professions Code § 7028.15)
[Public Contract Code§ 20103.5]
I, the undersigned, certify that J am aware of the following provisions of California law and that I, or the entity on whose behalf this certification is given, hold a currently valid California contractor's license as set forth below:

Business & Professions Code§ 7028.15:
a) It is a misdemeanor for any person to submit a bid to a public agency to engage in the business or act in the capacity of a contractor within this state without having a license therefor, except in any of the following cases:
(1 )The person is particularly exempted from this chapter. (2)The bid is submitted on a state project governed by Section IO 164 of the Public Contract Code or on any local agency project governed by Section 20 I 04 [now§ 20103.5) of the Public Contract Code.
b) If a person has been previously convicted of the offense described in this section, the court shall impose a fine of 20 percent of the price of the contract under which the unlicensed person performed contracting work, or four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500), whichever is greater, or imprisonment in the county jail for not less than I 0 days nor more than six months, or both.

In the event the person perfonning the contracting work has agreed to furnish materials and labor on an hourly basis, "the price of the contract" for the purposes of this subdivision means the aggregate sum of the cost of materials and labor furnished and the cost of completing the work to be performed.
c) This section shall not apply to a joint venture license, as required by Section 7029.1.

However, at the time of making a bid as a joint venture, each person submitting the bid shall be subject to this section with respect to his/her individual licenser. d) This section shall not affect the right or ability of a licensed architect, land surveyor, or registered professional engineer to form joint ventures with licensed contractors to render services within the scope of their respective practices. e) Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a bid submitted to a public agency by a contractor who is not licensed in accordance with this chapter shall be considered nonresponsive and shall be rejected by the public agency. Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a local public agency shall, before awarding a contract or issuing a purchase order, verify that the contractor was properly licensed when the contractor submitted the bid. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, the registrar may issue a citation to any public officer or employee of a public entity who knowingly awards a contract or issues a purchase order to a contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this chapter. The amount of civil penalties, appeal, and finality of such citations shall be subject to Sections 7028. 7 to 7028.13, inclusive. Any contract awarded to, or any purchase order issued to, as contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this chapter is void.
f) Any compliance or noncompliance with subdivision (e) of this section, as added by Chapter 863 of the Statutes of 1989, shall not invalidate any contract or bid awarded by a public agency during which time that subdivision was in effect. g) A public employee or officer shall not be subject to a citation pursuant to this section if the public employee, officer, or employing agency made an inquiry to the board for the purposes of verifying the license status of any person or contractor and the board failed to respond to the inquiry within three business days. For purposes of this section, a telephone response by the board shal I be deemed sufficient.

Section A Page 31 BID NO. 23-02
Public Contract Code§ 20103.5:

In all contracts subject to this part where federal funds are involved, no bid submitted shall be invalidated by the failure of the bidder to be licensed in accordance with the laws of this state.

However, at the time the contract is awarded, the contractor shall be properly licensed in accordance with the laws of this state. The first payment for work or material under any contract shall not be made unless and until the Registrar of Contractors verifies to the agency that the records of the Contractors' State License Board indicate that the contractor was properly licensed at the time the contract was awarded. Any bidder or contractor not so licensed shall be subject to all legal penalties imposed by law, including, but not limited to, any appropriate disciplinary action by the Contractors' State License Board. The agency shall include a statement to that effect in the standard form of pre-qualification questionnaire and financial statement. Failure of the bidder to obtain proper and adequate licensing for an award of a contract shall constitute a failure to execute the contract and shall result in the forfeiture of the security of the bidder.

Bid No. 23-02
Issue Date: January 9, 2024
The following revisions are hereby made to the above referenced project:

1. Replace the bid schedule with attached Bl D SCHEDULE Addendum 1. (1 page).

Revisions (in red):

A. The quantity of Bid Item 5 has been changed to 220.

B. The quantity of Bid Item 12 has been changed to 15,152 sf.

C. Bid Item 13 has been changed to "Cold Plane 3" x 4 feet wide.

D. Bid Item 23, "Cross Gutter" with an estimated quantity of 10 sf has been added.

2. Delete Note 4 on Typical Section No. 2 detail on sheet 5 of the plans. Contractor is responsible for disposal of all materials.

3. Pre-bid meeting agenda, meeting minutes and attendee list attached (7 pages).

4. The bid date remains the same.

Questions and clarifications:

1. Q. Bid Item 5 [sic] has 247 LF of R&R curb, Take Off is only Showing 182 LF. Please Confirm qty.

A. Quantity has been changed to 220 If. The quantity includes removal of the curb and 18 inches of the cross gutter spandrel at the NW corner of Green St and Lakeshore Blvd and the SW corner at Green St and Sayre St.

2. Q. Plans show on the South East corner of Green and Lakeshore to remove and replace the curb, Believe there is a valley gutter there. How would we address this with removals and pay ( make it a spandrel like other side? Would be better for FDR) Also Google maps shows a utility pole there (I didn't grab a photo of that corner to verify but plans don't show it) Is that going to be a problem? A. Bid Item 23, Cross Gutter with a quantity of 10 sf has been added to address squaring off this corner. The utility pole will remain the same.

3. Q. It was discussed in pre bid moving the bio barrier to behind the sidewalk, If it does not get moved would the section in the fdr portion still be relevant? A. Place root barrier as shown on the plans for the location on Sayre Street.

For the 2 locations on Green Street, the barrier can be moved to the back of the sidewalk if doing so is determined to not damage the roots too extensively. In the FDR area, place after FDR work completed, prior to paving.

4. Q. Will an arborist be needed for work around the tree with sidewalk removal since the roots have pushed the curb out and might need to be cut back? A. If an arborist is needed, the City will provide that service. Allow 3 working days in schedule for arborist inspection after concrete removal and prior to starting concrete replacement.

5. Q. Bid item 18 has 7 and plans shows 9- please confirm qty.

A. The City will be performing work on the waterlines prior to this contract which will affect the actual number of valves to be lowered and raised, so bid with quantity shown on plans. Payment will be based on actual number of water valves adjusted.

6. Q. What was the location of the survey monument preservation? Was it in the FDR section?
A. There is no known monumentation in the roadway that the City is aware of.

However, on past projects, unknown monumentation has been buried below the paving. This bid item is to cover that contingency.

7. Q. In pre bid meeting it was mentioned that we would be correcting the profile of the road while cold milling. Will we be required to grind more than the 2.5" section to correct quarter crowns? Some locations look to have significant depressions, will We need to level those out prior to the overlay with HMA if they are over 1" deeper than the new road profile? would we still be using 1 /2" HMA for those or a 3/8" mix? Should this be a separate pay item? A. The intent of the specifications is to adjust the cross slope as much as feasible while not exceeding an average mill depth of 2-1/2" inches in the mill and fill areas. In the FDR areas, there should be sufficient material to make the uniform grades without import. Make note of the grade control/surveying notes provided in the pre-bid agenda. The overall intent is to improve the grade without going to excessive measures to do so. If some leveling is required, the same½' HMA will be used. However, we don't anticipate any.

8. Q. Most FDR typically have a Micro Mill after cure and before paving, the city did not include it and wanted to make it aware as an option.

A. The City requires the finished FDR grade to comply with the specification requirements. If the contractor anticipates that using a Micro Mill is the best approach to achieving this result, this approach would be acceptable. However, the City is not requiring it.

9. Q. Lab testing required for HMA, the materials testing schedule which includes aggregate gradation, sand equivalent, asphalt binder etc. Is this all necessary? Just confirming since labs were asking.

A. Yes. Include all the material tests as listed.

10. Q. Following the cold planing of the existing asphalt, if the subgrade is determined to be defective or unusable, who is responsible (contractor or owner) for the repair/replacement of said subgrade?
A. In the FDR-C area, the contractor would be required to rework the FDR-C as there is no reason that it would not be stable if performed correctly. In the mill and fill areas, unstable areas would be addressed either by utilizing Bid Items 1 0 and 13, or other extra work procedures.

11. Q. Are there benchmarks or control points set?
A. The benchmark is near the utility pole at approximately Sta 12+ 10 The City Inspector will locate the benchmarks used to determine elevations. There are no control points.

12. Q. Are grades required on mill and fill areas?
A. Refer to grade control/surveying in pre-bid meeting agenda and notes.

13. Q. What if material needs to be imported to meet grades? How will this be paid? A. See No. 7 above.

14. Q. What are the requirements for concrete testing?
A. No concrete testing is required.

15. Q. Will transitions be required?
A. Section 708-3.4, subsection F. 2. Delete references to South City Limits and Peckham Court. Transitions shall be provided at driveways and streets. Driveway transitions shall be 2 feet wide for the 2-1/2" mill areas and 3 feet wide at the 3" mill areas. At streets, transitions shall be 5 feet minimum at the 2-1/2" mill areas and 1 0 feet wide at the 3" mill (FDR-C) areas. The temporary transitions shall be constructed of either hot mix or cold mix AC.

All questions regarding this project shall be transmitted in writing as indicated in the bid documents.

City reviewed (and modified if necessary) grades shall be used to establish cuts at 25-foot intervals at centerline, quarter points and eastern edge. o On Green in the non-FDR area, the City will be performing grading at the location of the Type E curb prior to the contract. The City will provide elevations at 1 O foot intervals at the pavement edge. Contractor will use design
information from the City to set "bluetop" stakes at
pavement edge prior to cold planning. The "bluetops" shall be verified and adjusted if needed on paving day. The
contractor shall provide existing elevations at the centerline, quarter points and unconfined pavement edges at 25 foot intervals at least 3 days prior to cold planning. Centerline finished pavement grades shall generally match the

• Cold planning
GSL Pavement Rehabilitation
o In FDR area, cold plane to provide for final design slope. o In FDR areas, cold plane sufficient material to allow for swell of FDR material. Usually about 10% or 1 inch.
o On non-FDR areas, cold plane to grades established per grade control above. Average depth shall be 2-1/2" (0.20 feet)
o On Loch, cold plane 4-foot digout after cold planning the 2- 1 /2 inch surface.

Page 2 ends

RE: Response Requested for NCIC Bid Advisory
Ms. Grupp,
In response to the protest leƩer draŌed by NorCal ConstrucƟon Industry Compliance (NCIC), Wylaƫ Resource Management, Inc. (WRM) believes that the issues presented by the NCIC in no way resulted in WRM violaƟng any “Fair compeƟƟve bidding” pracƟces. WRM is prospecƟve low bidder, above engineers esƟmate by 0.4% and below second place Nelson ConstrucƟon by a margin of 3% and third place Consolidated Engineering by 3.6%. This in no way represents a non-compeƟƟve bid spread.

As for the claims that NCIC presents, we will address these in bullet format as they have been presented to us:
 State Water Board ViolaƟon
The alleged State Water Board violaƟon presented by NCIC took place at the Geo Aggregates Concrete plant in Fort Bragg (Under the Wylaƫ Enterprises umbrella). This was a result of not filing the Supplemental Statement of Water Diversion documents in a Ɵmely manner, the repercussions of this resulted in Wylaƫ Enterprises paying a total fine of $900, a fine we paid without protest. Note that it was in no way the $108,000.00 that NCIC used as a tag line in their protest, nor does WRM paying the $900 fine alter the legiƟmacy and fairness of the GSL bid price.
 OSHA ViolaƟons ResulƟng in Fines Issued
WRM has had (2) alleged OSHA violaƟons of record. The first has to do with minor building repairs at the Geo Aggregates Concrete Plant in Fort Bragg (Under the Wylaƫ Enterprises Umbrella). These repairs (leaky roof, hole in floor) were immediately fixed following the citaƟons and the case seƩled.

The second alleged OSHA violaƟon took place with a member of our tree crew on a Caltrans Emergency project. Following the incident, WRM hired a third party outside consultant to revamp the tree division’s Safety Management Program. Since then, all members of the tree crew have undergone labor specific training given by the outside consultant. This violaƟon is sƟll in the appeals process.

WRM has a proven record of experience, fitness, and capacity to perform public works contracts. In 2023 Caltrans invited us to be Speaking ParƟcipants on the North Region (D1, D2, & D3) Caltrans Contractor’s Boot Camp panel due to our safety, integrity, and workplace efficiencies proven through our numerous and successful contracts with them. A panel shared jointly with Granite, Ghiloƫ, Golden State Bridge and Flat Iron ConstrucƟon, and a panel for which we have been asked to speak on again this coming February 2024. Wylaƫ Resource Management stands by its balanced bid and is prepared to do the work for the contracted price.

Re: Bid Advisory Against Wylatti Resource Management, Inc.’s Bid for City of Lakeport’s GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Project
Dear Ms. Grupp:

I send this correspondence on behalf of my client, the Construction Industry Force Account Council (“CIFAC”), regarding the City of Lakeport’s (“City”) GSL Pavement Rehabilitation Project (“Project”).

CIFAC is a non-profit coalition of construction industry associations, contractors and labor unions that monitors state and local agencies’ compliance with competitive bidding laws. These laws, enshrined mostly in the California Public Contract Code, ensure that agencies use taxpayer funds responsibly and “obtain the best result for the public,” while allowing contractors on public construction projects to compete on an open and level playing field. 1 CIFAC seeks to promote
fair and open bidding on all public projects in California and does not advocate on behalf of any specific contractors.

CIFAC writes to apprise the City that Wylatti Resource Management, Inc.’s (“Wylatti”) provided false answers to two questions in its bid for the above-referenced Project. These questions are critical to the City’s determination whether a bidder is responsible, as they concern any legal penalties assessed against the bidder within the last five years relating to its work on a construction project and any ongoing agency investigations against the bidder. CIFAC asks the City to reject Wylatti’s bid on the ground of responsibility due to Wylatti’s plainly false answers and its documented history of violating labor and safety laws.

I. Wylatti Provides False Answers to Two Critical Questions in its Bid for the City Project
As part of the Bidder Information form of its bid package for the Project, Wylatti stated “No” to both of the following questions:
1 M & B Construction v. Yuba County Water Agency (1999) 68 Cal.App.4th 1353, 1360; see also Domar Electric, Inc. v. City of Los Angeles (1994) 9 Cal.4th 161, 170-171.

January 25, 2024

Page 2 ends

Has your firm or its officer been assessed any penalties by any agency for noncompliance, violations of Federal or State labor laws and/or business or licensing regulations within past five (5) years relating to your construction projects? Does your firm or its officers have any ongoing investigations by any AGENCY regarding violations of the State Labor Code, California Business and Professions Code or State Licensing Laws?
However, publicly available information reveals these answers to be plainly false for multiple reasons.

First, Cal/OSHA both (1) has assessed penalties against Wylatti for violations of State labor laws and business regulations in the past five years and (2) is currently investigating Wylatti for violations of health and safety regulations promulgated under the Labor Code.

A review of the federal Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) enforcement inspection database reveals Cal/OSHA currently has two “OPEN” cases against Wylatti: Inspection #1663036.015, opened on April 12, 2023, and Inspection # 1658239.015, opened on March 22, 2023. (See Inspection and Violation Details, attached hereto as Attachment 1.) In both cases, Cal/OSHA has issued penalties against Wylatti. In the former case, Cal/OSHA found three violations and issued an initial $1400 penalty against Wylatti. In the latter case, labeled an “accident” case, Cal/OSHA found two violations, including one “Serious” violation with a 10/10 gravity rating and issued a $20,735 penalty against Wylatti.

Second, the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) both (1) has assessed penalties against Wylatti for prevailing wage and apprenticeship violations in the past five years and (2) is currently investigating Wylatti for violations of the Labor Code.

A review of recent Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) Case Assignment Letters and Civil Wage and Penalty Assessments against Wylatti (attached hereto as Attachment 2) 2 reveal at least four cases in the last
five years in which DIR assessed Wylatti penalties and at least one ongoing investigation:
• On September 15, 2020, DIR assessed Wylatti $42,602.03, including $6,820 in penalties under Labor Code section 1775 and $25,760 in penalties under Labor Code section 1777.7 for prevailing wage and apprenticeship violations on a Caltrans project in Mendocino County (DIR # 40-70132- 149);
• On September 23, 2020, DIR assessed Wylatti $4,480 in penalties under Labor Code section 1777.7 for apprenticeship violations on a Caltrans project in Mendocino County (DIR # 40-70142-149); • Also on September 23, 2020, DIR assessed Wylatti $1,920 in penalties under Labor Code section 1777.7 for apprenticeship violations on a City of Ukiah project (DIR #40-70148-149); 2 CIFAC has only reviewed the Civil Wage and Penalty Assessments (CWPA) shared by the Foundation for Fair Contracting (FFC) in FFC’s January 23, 2024 correspondence with the City. All these CWPAs were initiated by FFC complaints. CIFAC strongly encourages the City to do its own investigation to determine whether other recent DIR has issued other CWPAs against Wylatti based on complaints by non-FFC entities.

January 25, 2024

Page 3 ends

• On September 28, 2020, DIR assessed Wylatti $6,240 in penalties under Labor Code section 1777.7 for apprenticeship violations on a Mendocino County Resource Conservation District project (DIR # 40-70151-149); and
• DIR is currently investigating Wylatti on a Caltrans project in Sonoma (DIR Case # 40-76294-766).

DIR assigned the case to an investigator in May 2023.

The above demonstrates that Wylatti provided plainly false answers to two critical bidder questions in its bid package for the Project, and that Wylatti has a practice of violating state labor and worker safety laws.

II. The City Can and Should Reject Wylatti’s Bid on the Ground of Responsibility The Public Contract Code requires a public agency to award its public works contracts to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Of particular relevance here, Public Contract Code section 20160 et seq. governs cities and requires public projects over $5,000 to be competitively bid and awarded to the “lowest responsible bidder after notice.”3 The Public Contract Code defines a “responsible” bidder as “a bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity, and experience to satisfactorily perform the public works contract.”4
Here, Wylatti’s false answers to the two questions described above as well as its demonstrated practice of violating state labor and worker safety laws renders it untrustworthy and unfit to perform the Project for the City of Lakeport and therefore irresponsible for purposes of the Public Contract Code.

Accordingly, CIFAC respectfully requests that the City reject Wylatti’s bid for the Project on the ground of responsibility and ensure that the Project is awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

III. Conclusion
Please respond to this letter by February 9, 2024 indicating that the City will reject Wylatti’s bid for the Project and ensure that the Project is awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder pursuant to Public Contract Code section 20160 et seq. Please provide your response to me at [email protected] and to CIFAC’s Executive Director, Michelle Pickens, at [email protected].

Please feel free to call me with any questions at (916) 443-6600. Thank you in advance for your consideration of this matter.

Sincerely,
Andrea Matsuoka

IN THE CITY OF LAKEPORT, CALIFORNIA
[Business & Professions Code § 7028.15]
[Public Contract Code § 20103.5]
I, the undersigned, certify that I am aware of the following provisions of California law and that I, or the entity on whose behalf this certification is given, hold a currently valid California contractor’s license as set forth below:

Business & Professions Code § 7028.15:
a) It is a misdemeanor for any person to submit a bid to a public agency to engage in the business or act in the capacity of a contractor within this state without having a license therefor, except in any of the following cases:
(1)The person is particularly exempted from this chapter. (2)The bid is submitted on a state project governed by Section 10164 of the Public Contract Code or on any local agency project governed by Section 20104 [now § 20103.5] of the Public Contract Code.
b) If a person has been previously convicted of the offense described in this section, the court shall impose a fine of 20 percent of the price of the contract under which the unlicensed person performed contracting work, or four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500), whichever is greater, or imprisonment in the county jail for not less than 10 days nor more than six months, or both.

In the event the person performing the contracting work has agreed to furnish materials and labor on an hourly basis, “the price of the contract” for the purposes of this subdivision means the aggregate sum of the cost of materials and labor furnished and the cost of completing the work to be performed.
c) This section shall not apply to a joint venture license, as required by Section 7029.1.

However, at the time of making a bid as a joint venture, each person submitting the bid shall be subject to this section with respect to his/her individual licenser. d) This section shall not affect the right or ability of a licensed architect, land surveyor, or registered professional engineer to form joint ventures with licensed contractors to render services within the scope of their respective practices. e) Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a bid submitted to a public agency by a contractor who is not licensed in accordance with this chapter shall be considered nonresponsive and shall be rejected by the public agency. Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a local public agency shall, before awarding a contract or issuing a purchase order, verify that the contractor was properly licensed when the contractor submitted the bid. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, the registrar may issue a citation to any public officer or employee of a public entity who knowingly awards a contract or issues a purchase order to a contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this chapter. The amount of civil penalties, appeal, and finality of such citations shall be subject to Sections 7028.7 to 7028.13, inclusive. Any contract awarded to, or any purchase order issued to, as contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this chapter is void.
f) Any compliance or noncompliance with subdivision (e) of this section, as added by Chapter 863 of the Statutes of 1989, shall not invalidate any contract or bid awarded by a public agency during which time that subdivision was in effect. g) A public employee or officer shall not be subject to a citation pursuant to this section if the public employee, officer, or employing agency made an inquiry to the board for the purposes of verifying the license status of any person or contractor and the board failed to respond to the inquiry within three business days. For purposes of this section, a telephone response by the board shall be deemed sufficient.

Section A Page 32 BID NO. 23-02
Public Contract Code § 20103.5:

In all contracts subject to this part where federal funds are involved, no bid submitted shall be invalidated by the failure of the bidder to be licensed in accordance with the laws of this state.

However, at the time the contract is awarded, the contractor shall be properly licensed in accordance with the laws of this state. The first payment for work or material under any contract shall not be made unless and until the Registrar of Contractors verifies to the agency that the records of the Contractors’ State License Board indicate that the contractor was properly licensed at the time the contract was awarded. Any bidder or contractor not so licensed shall be subject to all legal penalties imposed by law, including, but not limited to, any appropriate disciplinary action by the Contractors’ State License Board. The agency shall include a statement to that effect in the standard form of pre-qualification questionnaire and financial statement. Failure of the bidder to obtain proper and adequate licensing for an award of a contract shall constitute a failure to execute the contract and shall result in the forfeiture of the security of the bidder.

It is the intention of the Agency to award a contract to a bidder who furnished satisfactory evidence that he/she has the requisite experience and ability, and that he/she has sufficient capital, facilities, and plant to enable him/her to prosecute the work successfully and properly, and to complete it within the time stated in the contract.

To determine the degree of responsibility to be credited to the bidder, the Agency will weigh any evidence that the bidder has performed satisfactorily other contracts of like nature, magnitude and comparable difficulty and comparable rates of progress. If in the opinion of the Agency, a bidder is determined to be insufficiently qualified, then that bidder will not be considered for award of the contract.

B1.12 DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS
Each proposal shall have listed on the DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS form provided in SECTION A the name, address, and license number of each subcontractor to whom the bidder proposes to sublet portions of the work in excess of one-half percent of the total amount of his/her bid.

purpose of this paragraph, a subcontractor is defined as one who contracts with the Contractor to furnish materials and labor, or labor only for the performance of work at the site of the work or who will specially fabricate a portion of the work off the site pursuant to detailed drawings in the contract documents.

Public Contract Code § 4104 requires all bidders to list subcontractors who will perform work in excess of ½% of the total bid, or in the case of streets and highways, ½% or $10,000, whichever is greater.

B1.15 WITHDRAWAL OF PROPOSAL
A proposal may be withdrawn by a written request signed by the bidder. Such requests must be delivered to the Agency’s designated official prior to the bid opening hour stipulated in SECTION A – NOTICE INVITING SEALED BIDS. Proposals may not be withdrawn after that time without forfeiture of the proposal guarantee. The withdrawal of a proposal will not prejudice the right of the bidder to submit a new proposal, providing there is time to do so.

The Agency reserves the right to postpone the date and time for opening of bids at any time prior to the date and time announced in SECTION A–NOTICE INVITING SEALED BIDS.

B1.17 DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS
If there is reason to believe that collusion exists among the bidders, none of the bids of the participants in such collusion will be considered. In the event that any bidder acting as a prime Contractor has an interest in more than one proposal, all such proposals will be rejected, and the bidder will be disqualified. This restriction does not apply to subcontractors or suppliers who may submit quotations to more than one bidder, and while doing so, may also submit a formal proposal as a prime Contractor.

B1.18 REJECTION OF PROPOSALS
The Agency reserves the right to reject any and all proposals, to waive any irregularity, and to reject any proposals which are incomplete, obscure or irregular; any proposals which omit a bid on any one or more Section B Page 38 BID NO. 23-02
items on which bids are required; which omit unit prices if unit prices are required; in which unit prices are unbalanced in the opinion of the Agency; which are accompanied by insufficient or irregular bid security; or which are from bidders who have previously failed to perform properly or to timely complete contracts of any nature.

B1.19 AWARD OF CONTRACT
The Contract will be awarded, if at all, to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, whose bid proposal is not rejected for cause by the Agency. However, until an award is made, the Agency reserves right will be reserved to reject any or all bids, and to waive technical errors or discrepancies, if to do so is deemed to best serve the interests of the Agency. In no event will an award be made until all necessary investigations are made as to the responsibility and qualifications of the bidder to whom it is proposed to make such an award.

Each bidder’s attention is directed to the possibility that the award of the project may be delayed for various reasons. The Agency reserves the right to delay the award of the project for 45 calendar days.

After 45 calendar days, the low bidder may at any time request release from its bid without penalty.

The acceptance of a proposal will be evidenced by a Notice of Award of Contract in writing, delivered by mail to the bidder whose proposal is accepted. No other act of the Agency shall constitute acceptance of a proposal. The award of contract shall obligate the bidder whose proposal is accepted to furnish a performance bond, payment bond and maintenance bond, as well as evidence of insurance and to execute the contract set forth herein.

B1.20 RETURN OF PROPOSAL GUARANTEES
Within ten (10) calendar days after the bids are opened, the Agency will release the proposal guarantees accompanying the proposals which are not to be considered in making the award. Proposal guarantees for the two lowest bidders will be held until the contract has been fully executed, after which they will be returned to the respective bidders.

B2.21 EXECUTION OF CONTRACT
The contract agreement shall be executed in duplicate by the successful bidder and returned, together with the contract bonds and evidence of insurance, within ten (10) calendar days after the notification of the contract award by the Agency in writing. In case of failure of the successful bidder to execute the contract agreement within ten (10) calendar days after such notice, or any subsequent extension approved by Agency, the Agency at its option may consider the bidder in default, in which case the bid bond or proposal guarantee accompanying the bid shall become the property of the Agency. After execution by the Agency, one original contract shall be returned to the Contractor.

B1.22 FLEXIBILITY OF BID SCHEDULE
It is the intent of the Agency to award a contract to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder and the flexibility shown in the bid schedule is necessary to ensure a project within the Agency’s budget limits and constraints.

specifications made a part of the invitation for bids.

If such plan varies from the shoring system standards, the plan shall be prepared by a registered civil or structural engineer. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to allow the use of a shoring, sloping, or protective system less effective than that required by the Construction Safety Orders.

In the event that a dispute arises between AGENCY and CONTRACTOR whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in CONTRACTOR’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work, CONTRACTOR shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided in the AGREEMENT, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under the AGREEMENT. CONTRACTOR shall retain any and all rights provided either by contract or by law which pertain to the resolution of disputes and protests between the contracting parties.

of the AGENCY, may be granted by the Engineer. Nothing herein shall be construed as granting a right to the CONTRACTOR to demand acceptance of such changes. 3-1.2 Payment for Changes Requested by the CONTRACTOR. If such changes are granted, they shall be made at a reduction in cost or no additional cost to the AGENCY. 3-2 CHANGES INITIATED BY THE AGENCY.
3-2.1 General. The AGENCY may change the Plans, Specifications, character of the work, or quantity of work provided the total arithmetic dollar value of all such changes, both additive and deductive, does not exceed 25 percent of the Contract Price. Should it become necessary to exceed this limitation, the change shall be by written Supplemental Agreement between the CONTRACTOR and AGENCY, unless both parties agree to proceed with the change by Change Order.

Change Orders shall be in writing and state the dollar value of the change or establish the method of payment, any adjustment in the Contract time of completion, and when negotiated prices are involved, shall provide for the CONTRACTOR’s signature indicating acceptance. 3-2.2 Contract Unit Prices.
3-2.2.1 General. If a change is ordered in an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and such change does not involve substantial change in character of the work from that shown on the Plans or specified in the Specifications, then an adjustment in payment will be made. This adjustment will be based upon the increase or decrease in quantity and the Contract Unit Price.

If the actual quantity of an item of work covered by Contract Unit Price and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifications varies from the Bid quantity by 25 percent or less, payment will be made at the Contract Unit Price. If the actual quantity of said item of work varies from the Bid quantity by more than 25 percent, payment will be made per 3-2.2.2 or 3-2.2.3 as appropriate.

If a change is ordered in an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and such change does involve a substantial change in the character of the work from that shown on the Plans or specified in the Specifications, an adjustment in payment will be made per 3-2.4. 3-2.2.2 Increases of More than 25 Percent. Should the actual quantity of an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifications, exceed the Bid quantity by more than 25 percent, payment for the quantity in excess of 125 percent of the Bid quantity will be made on the basis of an adjustment in the Contract Unit Price mutually agreed to by the CONTRACTOR and the AGENCY, or at the option of the Engineer, on the basis of Extra Work per 3.3.

3-2.2.3 Decreases of More Than 25 Percent. Should the actual quantity of an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifications, be less than 75 percent of the Bid quantity, an adjustment in payment will not be made unless so requested in writing by the CONTRACTOR. If the CONTRACTOR so requests, payment will be made on the basis of an adjustment in the Contract Unit Price mutually agreed to Section E Page 68 BID NO. 23-02
by the CONTRACTOR and the AGENCY, or at the option of the Engineer, on the basis of Extra Work per 3.3; however, in no case will payment be less than would be made for the actual quantity at the Contract Unit Price nor more than would be made for 75 percent of the Bid quantity at the Contract Unit Price.
3-2.3 Stipulated Unit Prices. Stipulated Unit Prices are unit prices established by the AGENCY in the Contract Documents. Stipulated Unit Prices may be used for the adjustment of Contract changes when so specified in the Special Provisions.
3-2.4 Agreed Prices. Agreed Prices are prices for new or unforeseen work, or adjustments in Contract Unit Prices per 3-2.2, established by mutual agreement between the CONTRACTOR and the AGENCY. If mutual agreement cannot be reached, the Engineer may direct the CONTRACTOR to proceed on the basis of Extra Work in accordance per 3-3, except as otherwise specified in 3-2.2.2 and 3-2.2.3.
3-2.5 Eliminated Items. Should any Bid item be eliminated in its entirety, payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR for its actual costs incurred in connection with the eliminated item prior to notification in writing from the Engineer so stating its elimination.

If material conforming to the Plans and Specifications is ordered by the CONTRACTOR for use in the eliminated item prior to the date of notification of elimination by the Engineer, and if the order for the material cannot be canceled, payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR for the actual cost of the materials. In this case, the material shall become the property of the AGENCY. Payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR for its actual costs for any further handling. If the material is returnable, the materials shall be returned and payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR for the actual cost of charges made by the supplier for returning the material and for handling by the CONTRACTOR.

Actual costs, as used herein, shall be computed on the basis of Extra Work per 3-3. 3-3 EXTRA WORK.
3-3.1 General. New or unforeseen work will be classified as “extra work” when the Engineer determines that it is not covered by the Contract Unit Prices or stipulated unit prices. 3-3.2 Payment.

4-1.1 General. All materials, parts, and equipment furnished by the CONTRACTOR in the Work shall be new, high grade, and free from defects. Quality of work shall be in accordance with the generally accepted standards. Materials and work quality shall be subject to the Engineer’s approval.

Materials and work quality not conforming to the requirements of the Specifications shall be considered defective and will be subject to rejection. Defective work or material, whether in place or not, shall be removed immediately from the site by the CONTRACTOR, at its expense, when so directed by the Engineer.

If the CONTRACTOR fails to replace any defective or damaged work or materials after reasonable notice, the Engineer may cause such work or materials to be replaced. The replacement expense will be deducted from the amount to be paid to the CONTRACTOR.

Used or secondhand materials, parts, and equipment may be used only if permitted by the Specifications.

The CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors, shall guarantee that the entire Work will meet all requirements of this Contract as to the quality of materials, equipment, and workmanship. The CONTRACTOR, at no cost to the AGENCY, shall make any repairs or replacements made necessary by defects in materials, equipment, or workmanship that become Section E Page 72 BID NO. 23-02
evident within one year after the date of recordation of the Notice of Completion. Within this one year period, the CONTRACTOR shall also restore to full compliance with the requirements of this Contract any portion of the Work which is found not to meet those requirements. The CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify, and hold the AGENCY, its officers, agents, and employees harmless from claims of any kind due to injuries or damages arising, directly or indirectly, from said defects or noncompliance.

The CONTRACTOR shall make all repairs, replacements, and restorations within thirty-five (35) days after the date of the Engineer’s written notice.

If, in the opinion of the Engineer, the defective work is not of sufficient magnitude or importance to make the work dangerous or undesirable, or if, in the opinion of the Engineer, the removal of such work is impractical or will create conditions which are dangerous or undesirable, the AGENCY shall have the right and authority to retain such work instead of requiring it to be removed and reconstructed, but will make such deductions thereof in the payments due or to become due to the CONTRACTOR as the AGENCY may deem just and reasonable.
4-1.2 Protection of Work and Materials. The CONTRACTOR shall provide and maintain storage facilities and employ such measures as will preserve the specified quality and fitness of materials to be used in the Work. Stored materials shall be reasonably accessible for inspection. The CONTRACTOR shall also adequately protect new and existing work and all items of equipment for the duration of the Contract.

The CONTRACTOR shall not, without the AGENCY’s consent, assign, sell, mortgage, hypothecate, or remove equipment or materials which have been installed or delivered and which may be necessary for the completion of the Contract.
4-1.3 Inspection Requirements.
4-1.3.1 General. Unless otherwise specified, inspection is required at the source for such typical materials and fabricated items as bituminous paving mixtures, structural concrete, metal fabrication, metal casting, welding, concrete pipe manufacture, protective coating application, and similar shop or plant operations.

Steel pipe in sizes less than 450 mm (18 inches) and vitrified clay and cast iron pipe in all sizes are acceptable upon certification as to compliance with the specifications, subject to sampling and testing by the AGENCY. Standard items of equipment such as electric motors, conveyors, elevators, plumbing fixtures, etc., are subject to inspection at the job site only. Special items of equipment such as designed electrical panel boards, large pumps, sewage plant equipment, etc., are subject to inspection at the source, normally only for performance testing. The Specifications may require inspection at the source for other items not typical of those listed in this section. 4-1.3.2 Inspection of Materials Not Locally Produced. When the CONTRACTOR intends to purchase materials, fabricated products, or equipment from sources located more than 80 km (50 miles) outside the geographical limits of the AGENCY, an inspector or accredited testing laboratory (approved by the Engineer), shall be engaged by the CONTRACTOR at its expense, to inspect the materials, equipment or process. This approval shall be obtained before producing any material or equipment. The inspector or representative of the testing laboratory shall judge the materials by the requirements of the Plans and Specifications. The CONTRACTOR shall forward reports required by the Engineer. No materials or equipment shall be shipped nor shall any processing, fabrication or treatment of such materials be done without proper inspection by the Section E Page 73 BID NO. 23-02
approved agent. Approval by said agent shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR of responsibility for complying with the Contract requirements.
4-1.3.3 Inspection by the AGENCY. The AGENCY will provide all inspection and testing laboratory services within 80 km (50 miles) of the geographical limits of the AGENCY. For private contracts, all costs of inspection at the source, including salaries and mileage costs, shall be paid by the permittee.
4-1.4 Test of Materials. Before incorporation in the Work, the CONTRACTOR shall submit samples of materials, as the Engineer may require, at no cost to the AGENCY. The CONTRACTOR, at his expense, shall deliver the materials for testing to the place and at the time designated by the Engineer.

Except as elsewhere specified, the AGENCY will bear the cost of testing material and/or workmanship which meet or exceed the requirements indicated in the Standard Specifications and the Special Provisions. The CONTRACTOR shall bear the cost of all other tests, including the retesting of material or workmanship that fails to pass the first test.

The CONTRACTOR shall notify the Engineer in writing, at least 15 days in advance, of its intention to use materials for which tests are specified, to allow sufficient time to perform the tests. The notice shall name the proposed supplier and source of material.

If the notice of intent to use is sent before the materials are available for testing or inspection, or is sent so far in advance that the materials on hand at the time will not last but will be replaced by a new lot prior to use on the Work, it will be the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to renotify the Engineer when samples which are representative may be obtained.

There will be inspection of this project to ensure strict adherence to these specifications. During the course of work, CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for calling the Project Engineer for testing and inspection (48) hours in advance. Work not properly tested and inspected will be subject to rejection.

Any work done in unauthorized areas or in a manner unacceptable to the inspector may not be accepted and/or paid for.
4-1.5 Certification. The Engineer may waive materials testing requirements of the Specifications and accept the manufacturer’s written certification that the materials to be supplied meet those requirements. Materials test data may be required as part of the certification. 4-1.6 Trade Names or Equals. The CONTRACTOR may supply any of the materials specified or offer an equivalent. The Engineer shall determine whether the material offered is equivalent to that specified. Adequate time shall be allowed for the Engineer to make this determination.

Whenever any particular material, process, or equipment is indicated by patent, proprietary or brand name, or by name of manufacturer, such wording is used for the purpose of facilitating its description and shall be deemed to be followed by the words or equal. A listing of materials is not intended to be comprehensive, or in order of preference. The CONTRACTOR may offer any material, process, or equipment considered to be equivalent to that indicated.

The CONTRACTOR shall, at its expense, furnish data concerning items offered by it as equivalent to those specified. The CONTRACTOR shall have the material tested as required by the Engineer to determine that the quality, strength, physical, chemical, or other characteristics, including durability, finish, efficiency, dimensions, service, and suitability are such that the item will fulfill its intended function.

Section E Page 74 BID NO. 23-02
Test methods shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer. Test results shall be reported promptly to the Engineer, who will evaluate the results and determine if the substitute item is equivalent. The Engineer’s findings shall be final. Installation and use of a substitute item shall not be made until approved by the Engineer.

If a substitute offered by the CONTRACTOR is not found to be equal to the specified material, the CONTRACTOR shall furnish and install the specified material.

The specified Contract completion time shall not be affected by any circumstance developing from the provisions of this section.

Along with information supplied by the CONTRACTOR regarding equivalency of the proposed item, the CONTRACTOR shall clearly identify all deviations from the specified item. Deviations discovered by the Engineer after acceptance of an “or equal” item which were not identified by the CONTRACTOR with his/her submittal shall be cause for rejection of the “or equal” item.

CONTRACTOR shall be due no additional compensation in time or money for acceptance or rejection of a proposed “or equal” item and subsequent replacement with the item specified.

CONTRACTOR shall pay cost to AGENCY for items requiring more than two submittals and analysis of any shop drawing which requires more than a general review of an “or equal” item. 4-1.7 Weighing and Metering Equipment. All scales and metering equipment used for proportioning materials shall be inspected for accuracy and certified within the past 12 months by the State of California Bureau of Weights and Measures, by the County Director or Sealer of Weights and Measures, or by a scale mechanic registered with or licensed by the County.

The accuracy of the work of a scale service CONSULTANT, except as stated herein, shall meet the standards of the California Business and Professions Code and the California Code of Regulations pertaining to weighing devices. A certificate of compliance shall be presented, prior to operation, to the Engineer for approval and shall be renewed whenever required by the Engineer at no cost to the AGENCY.

All scales shall be arranged so they may be read easily from the operator’s platform or area. They shall indicate the true net weight without the application of any factor. The figures of the scales shall be clearly legible. Scales shall be accurate to within 1 percent when tested with the plant shut down.

Weighing equipment shall be so insulated against vibration or moving of other operating equipment in the plant area that the error in weighing with the entire plant running will not exceed 2 percent for any setting nor 1.5 percent for any batch.
4-1.8 Calibration of Testing Equipment. Testing equipment, such as, but not limited to pressure gages, metering devices, hydraulic systems, force (load) measuring instruments, and strain-measuring devices shall be calibrated by a testing CONSULTANT acceptable to the Engineer at intervals not to exceed 12 months and following repairs, modification, or relocation of the equipment. Calibration certificates shall be provided when requested by the Engineer. 4-1.9 Construction Materials Dispute Resolution (Soils, Rock Materials, Concrete, Mortar and Related Materials, Masonry Materials, Bituminous Materials, Rock Products, and Modified Asphalts). In the interest of safety and public value, whenever credible evidence arises to contradict the test values of materials, the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR will initiate an immediate and cooperative investigation. Test values of materials are results of the materials’ tests, as defined by these Specifications or by the special provisions, required to accept the Work. Credible evidence is process observations or test values gathered using industry accepted practices. A contradiction exists Section E Page 75 BID NO. 23-02
whenever work acceptance or performance becomes suspect. The investigation shall allow access to all test results, procedures, and facilities relevant to the disputed work and consider all available information and, when necessary, gather new and additional information in an attempt to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. If the cooperative investigation reaches any resolution mechanism acceptable to both the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR, the contradiction shall be considered resolved and the cooperative investigation concluded.

Whenever the cooperative investigation is unable to reach resolution, the investigation may then either conclude without resolution or continue by written notification of one party to the other requesting the implementation of a resolution process by committee. The continuance of the investigation shall be contingent upon recipient’s agreement and acknowledged in writing within 3 calendar days after receiving a request. Without acknowledgement, the investigation shall conclude without resolution. The committee shall consist of three State of California Registered Civil Engineers. Within 7 calendar days after the written request notification, the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR will each select one engineer. Within 14 calendar days of the written request notification, the two selected engineers will select a third engineer. The goal in selection of the third member is to complement the professional experience of the first two engineers. Should the two engineers fail to select the third engineer, the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR shall each propose 2 engineers to be the third member within 21 calendar days after the written request notification. The first two engineers previously selected shall then select one of the proposed engineers in a blind draw.

The committee shall be a continuance of the cooperative investigation and will re-consider all available information and if necessary gather new and additional information to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. The committee will focus upon the performance adequacy of the material(s) using standard engineering principles and practices and to ensure public value, the committee may provide engineering recommendations as necessary.

Unless otherwise agreed, the committee will have 30 calendar days from its formation to complete their review and submit their findings. The final resolution of the committee shall be by majority opinion, in writing, stamped and signed. Should the final resolution not be unanimous, the dissenter may attach a written, stamped, and signed minority opinion.

Once started, the resolution process by committee shall continue to full conclusion unless:

1. Within 7 days of the formation of the committee, the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR reach an acceptable resolution mechanism; or

2. Within 14 days of the formation of the committee, the initiating party withdraws its written notification and agrees to bear all investigative related costs thus far incurred; or

3. At any point by the mutual agreement of the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR.

Unless otherwise agreed, the CONTRACTOR shall bear and maintain a record for all the investigative costs until resolution. Should the investigation discover assignable causes for the contradiction, the assignable party, the AGENCY or the CONTRACTOR, shall bear all costs associated with the investigation. Should assignable causes for the contradiction extended to both parties, the investigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally.

Should the investigation substantiate a contradiction without assignable cause, the investigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally. Should the investigation be unable to substantiate a contradiction, the initiator of the investigation shall bear all investigative costs. All claim notification requirements of the contract pertaining to the contradiction shall be suspended until the investigation is concluded.

6-6 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME.
6-6.1 General. If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of the CONTRACTOR, such delays will entitle the CONTRACTOR to an extension of time as provided herein, but the CONTRACTOR will not be entitled to damages or additional payment due to such delays, except as provided in 6-6.3. Such unforeseen events may include: war, government regulations, labor disputes, strikes, fires, floods, adverse weather or elements necessitating cessation of work, inability to obtain materials, labor or equipment, required extra work, or other specific events as may be further described in the Specifications.

No extension of time will be granted for a delay caused by the CONTRACTOR’s inability to obtain materials unless the CONTRACTOR furnishes to the Engineer documentary proof. The proof must be provided in a timely manner in accordance with the sequence of the CONTRACTOR’s operations and the approved construction schedule.

If delays beyond the CONTRACTOR’s control are caused by events other than those mentioned above, the Engineer may deem an extension of time to be in the best interests of the AGENCY. The CONTRACTOR will not be entitled to damages or additional payment due to such delays, except as provided in 6-6.3.

If delays beyond the CONTRACTOR’s control are caused solely by action or inaction by the AGENCY, such delays will entitle the CONTRACTOR to an extension of time as provided in 6-6.2. 6-6.1.1 Notice of Delays. Whenever the CONTRACTOR foresees any delay in the prosecution of the work, and in any event immediately upon the occurrence of any delay which the CONTRACTOR regards as unavoidable, he/she shall notify the Engineer in writing of the Section E Page 83 BID NO. 23-02
probability of the occurrence of such delay and its cause so that the Engineer may take immediate steps to prevent, if possible, the occurrence or continuance of the delay, or, if prevention is not possible, may determine whether the delay is to be considered avoidable or unavoidable, how long it continues, and to what extent it will delay the prosecution and completion of the work. It will be concluded that any and all delays which have occurred in the prosecution and completion of the work have been avoidable delays, except such delays as shall have been called to the attention of the Engineer at the time of their occurrence and found by him/her to have been unavoidable. The CONTRACTOR shall make no claims for any delay not called to the attention of the Engineer at the time of its occurrence as an unavoidable delay. 6-6.1.2 Avoidable Delays. Avoidable delays in the prosecution or completion of the work shall include all delays which in the opinion of the Engineer would have been avoided by the exercise of care, prudence, foresight, and diligence on the part of the CONTRACTOR of his/her subcontractors. The following shall be considered avoidable delays within the meaning of the contract: 1) Delays in the prosecution of parts of the work which may in themselves be unavoidable but do not necessarily prevent or delay the prosecution of other parts of the work or the completion of the whole work within the time herein specified; 2) Reasonable loss of time resulting from the necessity of submitting samples of materials and drawings to the Engineer for approval and from performing tests of materials, measurements, and inspections; 3) Reasonable interference of other CONTRACTORs employed by the AGENCY and/or other CONTRACTORs working in the area which do not necessarily prevent the completion of the whole work within the time agreed upon; 4) Delays resulting from inaccurate or incomplete shop drawing submittals; and 5) Interference of other CONTRACTORs performing concurrent work. 6-6.1.3 Extension of Time. In case the work is not completed in the time specified, including such extensions of time as may have been granted for unavoidable delays, the CONTRACTOR will be assessed damages for delay in accordance with Paragraph 6-9.1. The AGENCY, however, shall have the right to grant an extension of time for avoidable delay if it is deemed in his/her best interest to do so. During such extension of time, the CONTRACTOR will be charged for engineering and inspection services and other costs as provided in Paragraph 6-6.2.1 but will not be assessed damages pursuant to Paragraph 6-9.
6-6.2 Extensions of Time. Extensions of time, when granted, will be based upon the effect of delays to the Work. They will not be granted for noncontrolling delays to minor portions of the Work unless it can be shown that such delays did or will delay the progress of the Work. 6-6.2.1 Compensation to AGENCY for Extension of Time. Compensation for extension of time for avoidable delay granted pursuant to Paragraph 6-6.1.3 shall be the actual cost to the AGENCY for engineering, inspection, general supervision, and overhead expenses which are directly chargeable to the work and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of final inspection and preparation of the final estimate shall not be included. 6-6.3 Payment for Delays to CONTRACTOR. The CONTRACTOR will be compensated for damages incurred due to delays for which the AGENCY is responsible. Such actual costs will be determined by the Engineer. The AGENCY will not be liable for damages which the CONTRACTOR could have avoided by any reasonable means, such as judicious handling of forces or equipment. The determination of what damages the CONTRACTOR could have avoided will be made by the Engineer.

Requests for an extension of time must be delivered to the AGENCY within ten (10) consecutive calendar days following the date of the occurrence that caused the delay. The request must be Section E Page 84 BID NO. 23-02
submitted in writing and must state the cause of the delay, the date of the occurrence causing the delay, and the amount of additional time requested. This shall be included as part of a revised construction schedule required in Section 6-1. Requests for extensions of time shall be supported by all evidence reasonably available or known to the CONTRACTOR, which would support the extension of time requested. Requests for extensions of time, which are not received within the time specified above, shall result in the forfeiture of the CONTRACTOR’s right to receive any extension of time requested.

If the CONTRACTOR is requesting an extension of time because of weather, he/she shall supply daily written reports to the AGENCY’s representative describing such weather, and the work that could not be performed that day because of such weather or conditions resulting therefrom and that he/she otherwise would have performed.
6-7 TIME OF COMPLETION
6-7.1 General. The CONTRACTOR shall complete the Work within the time set forth in the Contract. The CONTRACTOR shall complete each portion of the Work within such time as set forth in the Contract for such portion. Unless otherwise specified, the time of completion of the Contract shall be expressed in working days.
6-7.2 Working Day. A working day is any day within the period between the start of the Contract time as defined in 6-1 and the date provided for completion, or upon field acceptance by the Engineer for all work provided for in the Contract, whichever occurs first, other than:

1. Saturday,

2. Sunday,

3. any day designated as a holiday by the AGENCY,

4. any other day designated as a holiday in a Master Labor Agreement entered into by the CONTRACTOR or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR as an eligible member of a CONTRACTOR association,

5. any day the CONTRACTOR is prevented from working at the beginning of the workday for cause as defined in 6-6.1,

6. any day the CONTRACTOR is prevented from working during the first 5 hours with at least 60 percent of the normal work force for cause as defined in 6-6.1.

The CONTRACTOR’s activities involving work which requires street closure, detours, and barricades shall be confined to the hours between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. In addition, the CONTRACTOR shall not perform any Work on Saturday, Sunday, or on AGENCYdesignated holidays. AGENCY-designated holidays are listed in TABLE 1 – AGENCYDESIGNATED HOLIDAYS below. Deviation from these hours will be permitted upon approval of the Engineer, except in emergencies involving immediate hazard to persons or property.

Deviations from these hours will not be permitted without the prior consent of the Engineer, except in emergencies involving immediate hazard to persons or property. In the event of either a requested or emergency deviation, inspection service fees will be charged against the CONTRACTOR. Service fees will be calculated at overtime rates including benefits, overhead, and travel time; and will be deducted from the amounts due the CONTRACTOR.

Failure of the CONTRACTOR to adhere to working day requirements will result in damages being sustained by the City. Such damages are, and will continue to be, impracticable and extremely difficult to determine. For each OCCURRENCE of a working day or hours violation, as provided Section E Page 85 BID NO. 23-02
herein, the CONTRACTOR shall pay to the AGENCY, or have withheld from monies due to it, the sum of $1,000.00.

EXECUTION OF THE CONTRACT SHALL CONSTITUTE AGREEMENT BY THE AGENCY AND CONTRACTOR THAT $1,000 PER VIOLATION IS THE MINIMUM VALUE OF THE COST AND

ACTUAL DAMAGED CAUSED BY FAILURE OF THE CONTRACTOR TO LIMIT

PERFORMANCE OF THE WORK BETWEEN THE ALLOTTED TIMES, THAT SUCH SUM SHALL

NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A PENALTY, AND THAT SUCH SUM MAY BE DEDUCTED FROM PAYMENTS DUE THE CONTRACTOR IF SUCH DELAY OCCURS.
6-7.3 Contract Time Accounting. The Engineer will make a daily determination of each working day to be charged against the Contract time. These determinations will be discussed and the CONTRACTOR will be furnished a periodic statement showing allowable number of working days of Contract time, as adjusted, at the beginning of the reporting period. The statement will also indicate the number of working days charged during the reporting period and the number of working days of Contract time remaining. If the CONTRACTOR does not agree with the statement, it shall file a written protest within 15 days after receipt, setting forth the facts of the protest. Otherwise, the statement will be deemed to have been accepted.
6-8 COMPLETION, ACCEPTANCE, AND WARRANTY. The Work will be inspected by the Engineer for acceptance upon receipt of the CONTRACTOR’s written assertion that the Work has been completed.

If, in the Engineer’s judgment, the Work has been completed and is ready for acceptance, it will so certify to the City Council, which may accept the completed Work. The Engineer will, in its certification to the City Council, give the date when the Work was completed. This will be the date when the CONTRACTOR is relieved from responsibility to protect the Work.

All work shall be warranted by the CONTRACTOR against defective workmanship and materials for a period of 1 year from the date the Work was completed. The CONTRACTOR shall replace or repair any such defective work in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer, after notice to do so from the Engineer, and within the time specified in the notice. If the CONTRACTOR fails to make such replacement or repairs Section E Page 86 BID NO. 23-02
within the time specified in the notice, the AGENCY may perform this work and the CONTRACTOR’s sureties shall be liable for the cost thereof.
6-8.1 General Guaranty. The CONTRACTOR shall remedy any defects in the Work and pay for any damage to other work resulting therefrom, which shall appear within a period of one year from the date of final acceptance of the Work unless a longer period is specified. The AGENCY will give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness.
6-9 FORFEITURE DUE TO DELAY. The CONTRACTOR shall complete all or any designated portion of the Work called for under the Contract within the time set forth in Section C (Proposal) of these Specifications.

In accordance with Government Code 53069.85, and all other applicable law, the CONTRACTOR agrees to forfeit and pay the AGENCY the amount of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per day for each and every day of unauthorized delay beyond the completion date, which shall be deducted from any monies due the CONTRACTOR. This payment shall be considered liquidated damages.

CONTRACTOR agrees that such liquidated damages are reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of execution of the contract, that such liquidated damages are to compensate AGENCY for losses that are difficult to measure and that such damages are not a penalty.

Failure of the CONTRACTOR to perform any covenant or condition contained in the Contract Documents within the time period specified shall constitute a material breach of this Contract entitling the AGENCY to terminate the Contract unless the CONTRACTOR applies for, and receives, an extension of time in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5-5.

Failure of the AGENCY to insist upon the performance of any covenant or conditions within the time period specified in the Contract Documents shall not constitute a waiver of the CONTRACTOR’s duty to complete performance within the designated periods unless the AGENCY has executed a waiver in writing.

The AGENCY’s agreement to waive a specific time provision or to extend the time for performance shall not constitute a waiver of any other time provision contained in the Contract Documents.

Failure of the CONTRACTOR to complete performance promptly within the additional time authorized in a waiver or extension of time agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Contract entitling the AGENCY to terminate this agreement.

The CONTRACTOR shall not be deemed in breach of this Contract and no forfeiture due to delay shall be made because of any delays in the completion of the Work due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the CONTRACTOR provided the CONTRACTOR requests an extension of time in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5-5. Unforeseeable causes of delay beyond the control of the CONTRACTOR shall include acts of God, acts of a public enemy, acts of the government, acts of the AGENCY, or acts of another CONTRACTOR in the performance of a contract with the AGENCY, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and weather, or delays of subcontractors due to such causes, or delays caused by failure of the owner of a utility to provide for removal or relocation of existing utility facilities. Delays caused by actions or neglect of CONTRACTOR or his/her agents, servants, employees, officers, subcontractors, directors, or of any party contracting to perform part of all of the Work or to supply any equipment or materials shall not be excusable delays. Excusable delays (those beyond the CONTRACTOR’s control) shall not entitle the CONTRACTOR to any additional compensation. The sole recourse of the CONTRACTOR shall be to seek an extension of time.

Section E Page 87 BID NO. 23-02
6-10 USE OF IMPROVEMENT DURING CONSTRUCTION. The AGENCY reserves the right to take over and utilize all or part of any completed facility or appurtenance. The CONTRACTOR will be notified in writing in advance of such action. Such action by the AGENCY will relieve the CONTRACTOR of responsibility for injury or damage to said completed portions of the improvement resulting from use by public traffic or from the action of the elements or from any other cause, except CONTRACTOR operations or negligence. The CONTRACTOR will not be required to reclean such portions of the improvement before field acceptance, except for cleanup made necessary by its operations.

Nothing in this section shall be construed as relieving the CONTRACTOR from full responsibility for correcting defective work or materials.

In the event the AGENCY exercises its right to place into service and utilize all or part of any completed facility or appurtenance, the AGENCY will assume the responsibility and liability for injury to persons or property resulting from the utilization of the facility or appurtenance so placed into service, except for any such injury to persons or property caused by any willful or negligent act or omission by the CONTRACTOR, Subcontractor, their officers, employees, or agents. 6-11 GUARANTEE. The CONTRACTOR shall warrant and guarantee the entire Work and all parts thereof, including that performed and constructed by subcontractors, and others employed directly or indirectly on the Work, against faulty or defective materials, equipment or workmanship for the maximum period provided by law. In addition thereto, for a period of one (1) year commencing on the date of acceptance of the Work, the CONTRACTOR shall, upon the receipt of notice in writing from the AGENCY, promptly make all repairs arising out of defective materials, workmanship or equipment and bear the cost thereof. The AGENCY is hereby authorized to make such repairs and the CONTRACTOR and Surety shall bear the cost thereof if, ten (10) days after the giving of such notice to the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR has failed to make or undertake with due diligence the repairs; provided, however, that, in the case of an emergency where, in the opinion of the AGENCY, delay could cause serious loss or damage, repairs may be made without notice being sent to the CONTRACTOR or Surety, and all expense in connection therewith shall be charged to the CONTRACTOR and Surety.

For the purpose of this article “Acceptance of the Work” shall mean the acceptance of the Work by the AGENCY in accordance with Subsection 6-8 but not for the purpose of extinguishing any covenant or agreement or agreement on the part of the CONTRACTOR to be performed or fulfilled under this Contract, which has not in fact been performed or fulfilled at the time of such acceptance all of such covenants and agreements, shall continue to be binding on the CONTRACTOR until they have been fulfilled.

The effective date of Acceptance of the Work and commencement of the Guarantee shall be the date of acceptance of the Notice of Completion by the City Council. 6-12 DISPUTES AND CLAIMS
6-12.1 General. Any and all decisions made on appeal pursuant to this Subsection 6-12 shall be in writing. Any “decision” purportedly made pursuant to this Subsection 6-12 that is not in writing shall not be binding upon the AGENCY and should not be relied upon by the CONTRACTOR.

Nothing in this subsection shall be considered as relieving the CONTRACTOR from his/her duty to file the notice required under Subsection 6-13 or other duties required by the Contract Documents. 6-12.2 Administrative Review. Request for review made to the Construction Inspector or Project Engineer may be either oral or written. Request for review made to the City Engineer shall be made in writing with supporting evidence attached.

Section E Page 88 BID NO. 23-02
The CONTRACTOR shall submit each request for review within twenty-one (21) calendar days of receipt of the decision that he/she is requesting.

Prior to demand for arbitration, the CONTRACTOR shall exhaust his/her administrative remedies by attempting to resolve his/her dispute or claim with AGENCY`s staff in the following sequence:

1. Project Engineer

2. City Engineer
Should the Project Engineer fail to address the CONTRACTOR’s request for review of a disputed decision within fourteen (14) calendar days after receiving such request, the CONTRACTOR may proceed directly to the City Engineer. At the option of the AGENCY, the person to whom the request for review is directed may elect to take such request to a higher level and the CONTRACTOR’s request shall be deemed to be properly submitted to such higher level.

The City Engineer shall address disputes or claims within twenty-eight (28) calendar days after receiving such request and all necessary supporting data. The City Engineer’s decision on the dispute or claim shall be the AGENCY’s final decision.
6-12.3 Arbitration. Claims and disputes arising under or related to the performance of the contract, except for claims that have been released by execution of the “Release on Contract” as provided in Subsection 9-4, shall be resolved in arbitration unless the AGENCY and the CONTRACTOR agree in writing, after the claim or dispute has arisen, to waive arbitration and to have the claim or dispute litigated in court of competent jurisdiction. Arbitration shall be conducted, to the extent feasible, pursuant to Chapter 3 (Sections 301-393, inclusive) of Division 2 of Title 1 of the California Code of Regulations except that references therein to the “State Contract Act” shall be construed to mean “applicable law” and “Public Agency”, or “Department” shall be construed to mean “AGENCY” as defined in Subsection 1.2. The arbitration decision shall be decided under and in accordance with California law, supported by substantial evidence, and in writing, contain the basis for the decision, findings of fact, and conclusions of law.

Arbitration shall be initiated by a Demand for Arbitration. The CONTRACTOR shall request a Demand for Arbitration not later than ninety (90) calendar days after the date of the final written decision of the AGENCY on the claim or dispute.

All contracts valued at more than $15,000 between the CONTRACTOR and his/her Subcontractors and Suppliers shall include a provision that the Subcontractors and Suppliers shall be bound to the CONTRACTOR to the same extent that the CONTRACTOR is bound to the AGENCY by all terms and provisions of the Contract, including these arbitration provisions. 6-13 NOTICE OF POTENTIAL CLAIM. The CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to the payment of any additional compensation for any cause, including any act, or failure to act, by the Engineer, or the happening of any event, thing or occurrence, unless the CONTRACTOR shall have given the Engineer due notice in writing, of the potential claim as hereinafter specified, provided, however, that compliance with this Subsection 6-12 shall not be a prerequisite as to any claim that is based on differences in measurements or errors of computation as to the Contract quantities.

Additionally, this Subsection 6-13 shall not supersede the specific notice and protest requirements of Subsection 3-4 “Changed Conditions” and Subsection 6-7.3 “Contract Time Accounting” respectively.

Section E Page 89 BID NO. 23-02
A written notice of potential claim shall set forth the reasons the CONTRACTOR believes additional compensation will or may be due, the nature of the costs involved, and, insofar as possible, the amount of the potential claim. A notice as above required must have been given to the Engineer prior to the time that the CONTRACTOR shall have performed the Work giving rise to the potential claim for additional compensation, if based on an act or failure to act by the Engineer, or in all other cases within fifteen (15) days after the happening of the event, thing or occurrence giving rise to the potential claim.

It is the intention of this Subsection 6-13 that differences between the parties arising under and by the virtue of the Contract be brought to the attention of the Engineer at the earliest possible time in order that such matters may be settled, if possible, or other appropriate action promptly taken. The CONTRACTOR hereby agrees that he/she shall have no right to additional compensation for any claim that may be based on any such act, failure to act, event, thing or occurrence for which no written notice of potential claim as herein required was filed.

SECTION 7 – RESPONSBILITIES OF THE CONTRACTOR
7-1 CONTRACTOR’S EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES. The CONTRACTOR shall furnish and maintain in good condition all equipment and facilities as required for the proper execution and inspection of the Work. Such equipment and facilities shall meet all requirements of applicable ordinances and laws.

A noise level limit of 85 dba at a distance of fifty (50) feet shall apply to all construction equipment on or related to the job, whether owned by the CONTRACTOR or not. The use of excessively loud warning signals shall be avoided except in those cases where required for the protection of personnel.

The CONTRACTOR shall arrange and maintain a secure storage site for all equipment and materials. All equipment and unused materials shall be returned to this site at the end of each work day. 7-2 LABOR.
7-2.1 General. Only competent workers shall be employed on the Work. Any person employed who is found to be incompetent, intemperate, troublesome, disorderly, or otherwise objectionable, or who fails or refuses to perform work property and acceptably, shall be immediately removed from the Work by the CONTRACTOR and not be reemployed on the Work. 7-2.2 Laws. The CONTRACTOR, its agents and employees shall be bound by and comply with applicable provisions of the Labor Code and Federal, State and local laws related to labor.

The CONTRACTOR shall strictly adhere to the provisions of the Labor Code regarding minimum wages; the 8-hour day and 40-hour week; overtime; Saturday, Sunday, and holiday work; and nondiscrimination because of race, color, national origin, sex, or religion. Failure to file any report due under said orders will result in suspension of periodic progress payments.

In accordance with the Labor Code, the Office of the Engineer has on file and will publish a schedule of prevailing wage rates for the types of work to be done under the Contract. The CONTRACTOR shall not pay less than these rates.

Each worker shall be paid subsistence and travel as required by the collective bargaining agreements on file with the State of California Department of Industrial Relations.

Section E Page 90 BID NO. 23-02
The CONTRACTOR’s attention is directed to Section 1776 of the Labor Code which imposes responsibility upon the CONTRACTOR for the maintenance, certification, and availability for inspection of such records for all persons employed by the CONTRACTOR or Subcontractor in connection with the project. The CONTRACTOR shall agree through the Contract to comply with this Section and the remaining provisions of the Labor Code.

The CONTRACTOR shall ensure unlimited access to the job site for all Equal Opportunity Compliance officers.

Every CONTRACTOR and Subcontractor shall keep an accurate record showing the name, occupation, and the actual per diem wages paid to each worker employed by him/her in connection with the public work. The record shall be kept open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the body awarding the Contract and to the Division of Labor Law Enforcement. 7-2.2.1 Overtime and Shift Work. The CONTRACTOR may establish overtime and shift work as a regular procedure only with the written permission of the Engineer. Such permission may be revoked at any time. No work other than overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure shall be done outside the hours described in Section 6-7.2, nor on Saturdays, Sundays or legal holidays, except such work as is necessary for the proper care and protection of the work already performed or except in case of an emergency.

All costs for overtime inspection, except those occurring as a result of overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure, shall be paid by the CONTRACTOR. Overtime inspection shall include inspection required during holidays observed by the AGC and Trade Unions, Saturdays, Sundays, and any weekday outside the hours described in Section 6-7.2. Such costs will include but will not necessarily be limited to engineering, inspection, general supervision and other overhead expenses that are directly chargeable to the overtime work. The AGENCY shall deduct all such charges from payments due the CONTRACTOR. 7-3 LIABILITY INSURANCE.
7-3.1 General. CONTRACTOR and AGENCY agree that AGENCY, its employees, agents and officials should, to the extent permitted by law, be fully protected from any loss, injury, damage, claim, lawsuit, cost, expense, attorneys fees, litigation costs, defense costs, court costs or any other cost arising out of or in any way related to the performance of this Agreement. Accordingly, the provisions of this indemnity provision are intended by the parties to be interpreted and construed to provide the fullest protection possible under the law to the AGENCY. CONTRACTOR acknowledges that AGENCY would not have entered into this Agreement in the absence of the commitment of CONTRACTOR to indemnify and protect AGENCY as set forth here. 7-3.2 To the full extent permitted by law, CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless AGENCY, its employees, agents and officials, from any liability, claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged, or threatened, actual attorneys fees incurred by AGENCY, court costs, interest, defense costs including expert witness fees and any other costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever without restriction or limitation incurred in relation to, as a consequence of, arising out of or in any way attributable actually, allegedly or impliedly, in whole or in part to the performance of this Agreement. All obligations under this provision are to be paid by CONTRACTOR as they are incurred by the AGENCY.

Section E Page 91 BID NO. 23-02
7-3.3 Without affecting the rights of AGENCY under any provision of this agreement or this section, CONTRACTOR shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless AGENCY as set forth above for liability attributable to the sole fault of AGENCY, provided such sole fault is determined by agreement between the parties or the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction.

This exception will apply only in instances where the AGENCY is shown to have been solely at fault and not in instances where CONTRACTOR is solely or partially at fault or in instances where AGENCY’s fault accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved. In those instances, the obligation of CONTRACTOR will be all-inclusive and AGENCY will be indemnified for all liability incurred, even though a percentage of the liability is attributable to the conduct of the AGENCY. 7-3.4 CONTRACTOR acknowledges that its obligation pursuant to this section extends to liability attributable to AGENCY, if that liability is less than the sole fault of AGENCY. CONTRACTOR has no obligation under this Agreement for liability proven in a court of competent jurisdiction or by written agreement between the parties to be the sole fault of AGENCY. 7-3.5 The obligations of CONTRACTOR under this or any other provision of this Agreement will not be limited by the provisions of any workers compensation act or similar act. CONTRACTOR expressly waives its statutory immunity under such statutes or laws as to AGENCY, its employees, agents and officials.
7-3.6 CONTRACTOR agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those as set forth here in this section from each and every subcontractor, sub-tier CONTRACTOR or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of CONTRACTOR in the performance or subject matter of this Agreement. In the event CONTRACTOR fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required here, CONTRACTOR agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section.
7-3.7 Failure of AGENCY to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on AGENCY and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend AGENCY as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of CONTRACTOR and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section. 7-3.8 CONTRACTOR agrees to provide insurance in accordance with the requirements as set forth here. If CONTRACTOR uses existing coverage to comply with these requirements and that coverage does not meet the requirements set forth herein, CONTRACTOR agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so. The following coverages will be provided by CONTRACTOR and maintained on behalf of AGENCY and in accordance with the requirements set forth herein. 7-3.9 Commercial General Liability/Umbrella Insurance. Primary insurance shall be provided on ISO-CGL form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. Total limits shall be not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000.00) per occurrence for all coverages and four million dollars ($4,000,000.00) general aggregate. AGENCY and its officers, agents and employees shall be named as additional insureds using ISO additional insureds endorsement form CG 20 10 11 85 (in no event will AGENCY accept an endorsement form with an edition date later than 1990). Coverage shall apply on a primary noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance, primary or excess, available to AGENCY or any employee or agent of AGENCY. Coverage shall not be limited to the vicarious liability or supervisory role of any additional insured. Umbrella Liability Insurance (over primary) shall apply to bodily injury/property damage, personal injury/advertising injury, at a minimum, and shall include a “drop down” provision providing primary coverage above a maximum of $25,000.00 self-insured retention for liability not covered by primary policies but covered by the umbrella policy.

Section E Page 92 BID NO. 23-02
Coverage shall be following form to any underlying coverage. Coverage shall be provided on a “pay on behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no crossliability exclusion. Policies shall have concurrent starting and ending dates.

Each policy of insurance shall contain a clause prohibiting cancellation, modification or lapse without thirty (30) days prior written notice having been given to the City. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by the City Attorney and certificates evidencing such policies shall be provided to the City concurrently with the filing of all required bonds. 7-3.10 Business Auto/Umbrella Liability Insurance. Primary coverage shall be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 06 92 including symbol 1 (Any Auto). Limits shall be no less than two million dollars ($2,000,000.00) per accident. Starting and ending dates shall be concurrent. If CONTRACTOR owns no autos, a non-owned auto endorsement to the General Liability policy drafted above is acceptable.
7-4 WORKERS’ COMPENSATION INSURANCE.
7-4.1 Workers’ Compensation/Employers’ Liability shall be written on a policy form providing workers’ compensation statutory benefits as required by law. Employers’ liability limits shall be no less than one million dollars per accident or disease. Employers’ liability coverage shall be scheduled under any umbrella policy described above. Unless otherwise agreed, this policy shall be endorsed to waive any right of subrogation as respects the AGENCY, its officers, agents or employees. 7-4.2 CONTRACTOR and AGENCY further agree as follows:
7-4.2.1 This Section supersedes all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. 7-4.2.2 Nothing contained in this Section is to be construed as affecting or altering the legal status of the parties to this Agreement. The insurance requirements set forth in this Section are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and shall be interpreted as such.
7-4.2.3 All insurance coverage and limits provided pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to the full extent of the policies involved, available, or applicable. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the AGENCY or its operations limits the application of each insurance coverage.
7-4.2.4 Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only and is not intended by any party to be all-inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.
7-4.2.5 For purposes of insurance coverage only, this Agreement shall be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 7-4.2.6 All general or auto liability insurance coverage provided pursuant to this Agreement, or any other agreements pertaining to the performance of this Agreement, shall not prohibit CONTRACTOR, and CONTRACTOR’s agents, officers or employees from waiving the right of Section E Page 93 BID NO. 23-02
subrogation prior to a loss. CONTRACTOR hereby waives all rights of subrogation against AGENCY.
7-4.2.7 Unless otherwise approved by AGENCY, CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall be written by insurers authorized to do business in the State of California and with a minimum “Best’s” Insurance Guide rating of “A:VII.” Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these insurance specifications.
7-4.2.8 In the event any policy of insurance required by this Agreement does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, AGENCY has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by AGENCY will be promptly reimbursed by CONTRACTOR. Upon CONTRACTOR’s failure to make such reimbursement within 30 days of written demand, AGENCY may deduct that sum from any monies due CONTRACTOR hereunder or otherwise.
7-4.2.9 CONTRACTOR agrees to provide evidence of the insurance required herein, satisfactory to AGENCY, consisting of certificate(s) of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to CONTRACTOR’s general liability and umbrella liability policy (if any) using ISO form CG 20 10 11 85. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days’ notice of any cancellation of coverage. CONTRACTOR agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word “endeavor” with regard to any notice provisions. CONTRACTOR agrees to provide complete copies of policies to AGENCY upon request.
7-4.2.10 CONTRACTOR shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Such proof shall be furnished within 72 hours of the expiration of the coverages.

Section E Page 106 BID NO. 23-02
Unless otherwise provided in Specifications, volumetric quantities shall be the product of the mean area of vertical or horizontal sections and the intervening horizontal or vertical dimension. The planimeter shall be considered an instrument of precision adapted to measurement of all areas. 9-1.2 Methods of Measurement.

When payment is to be made on the basis of weight, the weighing shall be done on certified platform scales or, when approved by the Engineer, on a completely automated weighing and recording system. The CONTRACTOR shall furnish the Engineer with duplicate licensed weighmaster’s certificates showing actual net weights. The AGENCY will accept the certificates as evidence of weights delivered.
9-1.4 Units of Measurement. Measurements shall be in accordance with 1-4.1 and 1-4.2. a metric ton or “tonne” is equal to 1000 kilograms and the unit of liquid measure is a Liter (in U.S. Standard Measures, a pound is an avoirdupois pound; a ton is 2000 pounds avoirdupois; and the unit of liquid measure is a gallon).
9-2 LUMP SUM WORK. Items for which quantities are indicated “Lump Sum”, “L.S.”, or “Job”, shall be paid for at the price indicated in the Bid. Such payment shall be full compensation for the items of work and all work appurtenant thereto.

When required by the Specifications or requested by the Engineer, the CONTRACTOR shall submit to the Engineer within 15 days after award of Contract, a detailed schedule in triplicate, to be used only as a basis for determining progress payments on a lump sum contract or designated lump sum bid item. This schedule shall equal the lump sum bid and shall be such form and sufficiently detailed as to satisfy the Engineer that it correctly represents a reasonable apportionment of the lump sum. 9-3 PAYMENT
9-3.1 General. The quantities listed in the Bid schedule will not govern final payment. Payment to the CONTRACTOR will be made only for actual quantities of Contract items constructed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications. Upon completion of construction, if the actual quantities show either an increase or decrease from the quantities given the Bid schedule, the Contract Unit Prices will prevail subject to the provisions of 3-2.2.1.

The unit and lump sum prices to be paid shall be full compensation for the items of work and all appurtenant work, including furnishing all materials, labor, equipment, tools, and incidentals.

Payment will not be made for materials wasted or disposed of in a manner not called for under the Contract. This includes rejected materials not unloaded from vehicles, material rejected after it has been placed, and material placed outside of the Plan lines. No compensation will be allowed for disposing of rejected or excess material.

Whenever any portion of the Work is performed by the AGENCY at the CONTRACTOR’s request, the cost thereof shall be charged against the CONTRACTOR, and may be deducted from any amount due or becoming due from the AGENCY.

Whenever immediate action is required to prevent injury, death, or property damage, and precautions which are the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility have not been taken and are not reasonably expected Section E Page 107 BID NO. 23-02
to be taken, the AGENCY may, after reasonable attempt to notify the CONTRACTOR, cause such precautions to be taken and shall charge the cost thereof against the CONTRACTOR, or may deduct such costs from any amount due or becoming due from the AGENCY. AGENCY action or inaction under such circumstances shall not be construed as relieving the CONTRACTOR or its Surety from liability.

Payment shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from its obligations under the Contract; nor shall such payment be construed to be acceptance of any of the Work. Payment shall not be construed as the transfer of ownership of any equipment or materials to the AGENCY. Responsibility of ownership shall remain with the CONTRACTOR who shall be obligated to store any fully or partially completed work or structure for which payment has been made; or replace any materials or equipment required to be provided under the Contract which may be damaged, lost, stolen or otherwise degraded in any way prior to acceptance of the Work, except as provided in 6-10.

Warranty periods shall not be affected by any payment, but shall commence on the date equipment or material is placed into service at the direction of the AGENCY. In the event such items are not placed into service prior to partial or final acceptance of the project, warranty periods will commence on the date of such acceptance.

If, within the time fixed by law, a property executed notice to stop payment is filed with the AGENCY, due to the CONTRACTOR’s failure to pay for labor or materials used in the Work, all money due for such labor or materials will be withheld from payment to the CONTRACTOR in accordance with applicable laws.

At the expiration of 35 calendar days from the date of acceptance of the Work by the City Council, or as prescribed by law, the amount deducted from the final estimate and retained by the AGENCY will be paid to the CONTRACTOR except such amounts as are required by law to be withheld by properly executed and filed notices to stop payment, or as may be authorized by the Contract to be further retained.

From each progress estimate, 5 percent will be deducted and retained by the AGENCY, and the remainder less the amount of all previous payments will be paid. After 50 percent of the Work has been completed and if progress on the Work is satisfactory, the deduction to be made from remaining progress estimates and from the final estimate may be limited to $500 or 5 percent of the first half of total Contract amount, whichever is greater.

No progress payment made to the CONTRACTOR or its sureties will constitute a waiver of the liquidated damages under 6-9.

On not later than the fifth day of every month, the Contractor shall present to the Director of Public Works an invoice covering the total quantities under each item of work that have been completed, from the start of the job up to and including the last day of the preceding month, and the value of the work so completed determined in accordance with the schedule of unit prices for such items together with such supporting evidence as may be required by the Director of Public Works. This invoice shall also include an allowance for the cost of such material required in the permanent work as has been delivered to the site but not as yet incorporated in the work.

Section E Page 108 BID NO. 23-02

However, payments will be withheld pending receipt of any outstanding reports required by the Contract Documents. In addition, the final progress payment will not be released until the Contractor returns the control set of plans and specifications showing the as-built conditions.

The full five (5) percent retention will be deducted from all payments. The final retention will be authorized for payment thirty-five (35) days after the date of recordation of the Notice of Completion.

The CONTRACTOR may substitute securities for any monies withheld by the AGENCY to ensure performance under the Contract as provided in Public Contract Code Sections 10263 and 22300.

When provided for in the Specifications, and subject to the limitation and conditions therein, the cost of materials and equipment delivered but not incorporated into the Work will be included in the progress estimate.
9-3.3 Delivered Materials. Materials and equipment delivered but not incorporated into the Work may be submitted for payment with Engineer’s approval.
9-3.4 Mobilization. When a bid item is included in the Proposal form for mobilization and subject to the conditions and limitations in the Specifications, the costs of work in advance of construction operations and not directly attributable to any specific bid item will be included in the progress estimate, prorated by percentage of work completed or lapsed contract time, whichever is less When no such bid item is provided, payment for such costs will be considered to be included in the other items of work.
