Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: Staff recommends Council award a construction contract to Subterra Construction Inc., to remove and replace roughly 3,000 linear feet of combined sewer pipeline, remove and replace manholes, drains, and sewer services at the following locations:
1) 24th Street (3rd avenue to Castro Way)
2) I Street (30th St to Alhambra Blvd)
3) I Street (33rd St to 35th St)
4) M Street/Folsom Blvd Alley

5) Portola Way (26th St to Franklin Blvd)
6) 25th Street (Castro Way to Marshall Way)
These locations are all in need of repairs due to their age, deteriorated condition and poor structural integrity, lack of capacity, and increased maintenance schedules. Also, this project, which will include the upsizing of the pipe segments, will help achieve the goals of the City outlined in the Combined Sewer System Long Term Control Plan to eliminate outflows during a 10-year storm.

Policy Considerations: City Council approval is required to award construction contracts of $250,000 or more. The action requested conforms with City Code Chapter 3.60, Articles I and III, which provide for award of competitively bid contracts to the lowest responsible bidder.

Rehabilitation of aging and deteriorated sewer pipes is consistent with the criteria and goals set forth in the Department of Utilities’ Capital Improvement Programming Guide (such as rehabilitate, replace, and expand critical infrastructure to ensure reliability and safety of the City’s sewer system).

The Sacramento City Code Section 4.04.020 and Council Rules of Procedure (Chapter 7, Section E.2.d) mandate that, unless waived by a 2/3 vote of the City Council, all labor agreements and all agreements greater than $1,000,000 shall be made available to the public at least ten (10) days prior to council action.

Economic Impacts: This new infrastructure is expected to create 5.39 total jobs (3.10 direct jobs and 2.29 jobs through indirect and induced activities) and create $832,036.27 in total economic output ($524,438.82 of direct output and another $307,597.45 of output through indirect and induced activities).

The indicated economic impacts are estimates calculated using a calculation tool developed by the Center for Strategic Economic Research (CSER). CSER utilized the IMPLAN input-output model (2009 coefficients) to quantify the economic impacts of a hypothetical $1 million of spending in various construction categories within the City of Sacramento in an average one-year period. Actual impacts could differ significantly from the estimates and neither the City of Sacramento nor CSER shall be held responsible for consequences resulting from such differences.

Environmental Considerations:

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): The subject projects were reviewed and determined to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

The projects include replacing existing combined sewer mains (utility systems) involving negligible expansion of capacity (CEQA Guidelines Section 15302 (c)).

Sustainability: The proposed project is consistent with the 2035 General Plan Policy U 3.1.3 as it will rehabilitate and improve the existing combined sewer system (CSS) to decrease City of Sacramento Page 2 of 3
File ID: 2022-01539 9/20/2022 Consent Item 14.
flooding, CSS outflows and combined system overflows.

Commission/Committee Action: Not applicable.

Rationale for Recommendation: The project was advertised, and three bids were received and opened on August 3, 2022. Subterra Construction, Inc. was the lowest responsive bidder.

Contractor Amount
SubTerra Construction, Inc. $1,347,569.00
Lund Construction Co. $2,318,014.50
McGuire and Hester $2,543,975.00
The Engineer’s construction cost estimate was $1,606,345.

Financial Considerations: Sufficient funds exist in the Combined Collection System Rehabilitation and Replace Project (X14170100, Funds 6006 and 6321) to award a contract to Subterra Construction, Inc. for an amount not-to-exceed $1,347,569.

There are no General Funds allocated or planned for this project.

Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Subterra Construction Inc. is not an LBE but has partnered with Granite Construction Supply and GR Trucking, LLC for this project to exceed the minimum LBE participation requirement. Granite Construction Supply will provide trench backfill and street restoration material and GR Trucking will provide the Trucking services.

In accordance with Sacramento City Code Section 3.60.180 and Section 1771.5 of the California Labor Code, the payment of the general prevailing rate of per diem wages or the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for holiday and overtime is not required for any construction project of $25,000 or less, or an alteration, demolition, repair, and maintenance project of $15,000 or less. The City of Sacramento has an approved Labor Compliance Program. The City uses an electronic system for the submission of Labor Compliance Reports, which became effective May 1, 2007. The contractor and every lower-tier subcontractor shall submit certified payrolls and labor compliance documentation electronically at the discretion of and in the manner specified by the City of Sacramento.

Electronic submittal is via a web-based system, accessed on the World Wide Web by a web browser. Each contractor and subcontractor is given a Log On identification and password to access the City of Sacramento’s reporting system.

Use of the system may entail additional data entry of weekly payroll information including employee identification, labor classification, total hours worked and hours worked on this project, wage and benefit rates paid, etc. The contractor’s payroll and accounting software might be capable of generating a ‘comma delimited file’ that will interface with the software.

Department of Industrial Relations Registration and Reporting Requirements (SB 854) Labor Code Section 1725.5 (enacted by SB 854) requires all contractors bidding on this contract, all subcontractors listed in a bid for this contract, and any contractor or subcontractor performing any work under this contract, to be currently registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), as specified in Labor Code Section 1725.5. Labor Code Section 1771.1 (enacted by SB 854) provides that a contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal (subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code), or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5. Every bidding contractor shall list the contractor’s current DIR registration number, and the current DIR registration number of all listed subcontractors, on the Subcontractor and Local Business Enterprise (LBE) Participation Verification Form included in the contractor’s bid.

Pursuant to Labor Code Section 1771.1(b): (1) any bid received from a contractor that is not currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5 shall be rejected as non-responsive; and (2) any bid listing one or more subcontractors on the bidder’s Subcontractor and Local Business Enterprise (LBE) Participation Verification Form that are not currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5, shall be rejected as nonresponsive, unless the listing was an inadvertent error and any of the conditions specified in Labor Code Section 1771.1(c) apply.

This contract also is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. For all contracts awarded on or after April 1, 2015, California Labor Code Section 1771.4 (enacted by SB 854) requires the contractor and all subcontractors to furnish electronic payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner (in addition to City staff via the City’s electronic system).

A Fact Sheet summarizing the provisions of SB 854 is attached. This is provided solely for informational purposes, and does not in any way affect the contractor’s and subcontractors’ obligation to comply in all respects with the provisions of SB 854, including the provisions referenced above, as well as all other applicable laws and regulations.

The contractor shall disseminate these provisions to every lower-tier subcontractor and vendor required to provide labor compliance documentation.

All questions regarding the City’s Labor Compliance Program should be directed to the Department’s contracts staff or the Labor Compliance Officer at (916) 808-4011.

BAN-THE-BOX REQUIREMENTS

INTRODUCTION
On September 6, 2016, the City of Sacramento enacted an ordinance regarding criminal conviction information in the employment application process (the “Ban-the-Box Ordinance”), which added Chapter 3.62 to the Sacramento City Code and amended Section 2.40.050 of the Sacramento City Code. The Ban-the-Box Ordinance prohibits “covered employers” from asking an applicant for employment to disclose, orally or in writing, information concerning the criminal conviction history of the applicant, including any inquiry about criminal conviction history on any employment application, until the employer has determined the applicant meets the minimum employment qualifications stated in any notice issued for the position.

APPLICATION
“City Contract”
The Ban-the-Box Ordinance applies to all “city contracts.” The term “city contract” means a contract awarded after January 1, 2017 to a “covered employer” for services or a public project in return for compensation of $250,000 or more. The term “city contract” includes contracts for services or public projects that were awarded for an amount less than $250,000 but were amended to increase the total compensation to $250,000 or more.

The Ban-the-Box Ordinance also applies when the aggregate value of all contracts for services or public projects the City has awarded to the same “covered employer” within the previous 12 months is $250,000 or more.

The Ban-the-Box Ordinance does not apply to: (1) contracts awarded by the City Manager in response to an emergency; and (2) contracts for the purchase or lease of equipment, supplies, or other personal property, even if they include incidental services such as delivery, installation, or maintenance. “Covered Employer”
The Ban-the-Box Ordinance only applies to “covered employers.” The term “covered employer” means a person who is a party to a “city contract” and has at least 20 employees working either full or part time. The number of employees that a contractor has is determined by adding the contractor’s employees and the employees of any “related person.” A person is a “related person” when any of the following circumstances exists:
(1) The person and the person that is a party to a “city contract” are both corporations and:

(a) Share a majority of members of their governing boards; or (b) Have two or more officers in common; or
(c) Are controlled by the same majority shareholder or shareholders (control means more than 50% of the corporation’s voting power); or
(d) Are in a parent-subsidiary relationship (such a relationship exists when one corporation directly or indirectly owns shares possessing more than 50% of another corporation’s voting power). (2) The person otherwise controls and directs, or is controlled and directed by, the person that is a party to a city contract, as determined by the City Manager, or City Manager designee.

The term “covered employer” includes a subcontractor providing services under a “city contract” if the subcontractor has at least 20 employees, whether full- or part-time, or the amount of the subcontract is at least 25% of the amount of the “city contract.”
The term “covered employer” does not include any unit of federal, state or local government.

Exceptions
The Ban-the-Box Ordinance provisions do not apply to: (1) a position for which a “covered employer” is otherwise required by law to conduct a criminal conviction history background check; or (2) a position that will not involve work pursuant to a “city contract.” Additionally, the BanͲtheͲBox Ordinance does not prevent a “covered employer” from conducting a criminal conviction history background check in subsequent stages of the application process after initially determining whether the applicant meetsthe minimum employment qualifications.

COMPLIANCE
It is the contractor’s responsibility to determine whether the aggregate value of $250,000 or more has been met, and to notify the City in writing whenever this is the case. It is also the contractor’s responsibility to ensure that all of its subcontractors who are covered by the Ban-the-Box Ordinance comply with the provisions of the Ban-the-Box Ordinance by including these requirements in all subcontracts covered by the Ban-the-Box Ordinance.

VIOLATIONS AND MONITORING
The Ban-the-Box Ordinance provides that any violation of the Ban-the-Box Ordinance by a “covered employer” constitutes a material breach of the contract, and authorizes the City to terminate the contract. The City may also enforce the Ban-the-Box Ordinance by investigating any alleged violation (but any failure of the City to investigate does not create a right of action against the City). The City may further require “covered employers” to verify compliance.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
For a complete description of the Ban-the-Box Ordinance provisions related to City contracts, refer to the Banthe-Box Ordinance, codified at Sacramento City Code Chapter 3.62. The Sacramento City Code is available on the internet at www.cityofsacramento.org.

1. Definitions. For purposes of this section, the following terms, words and phrases shall have the following meanings:
“Certified C&D sorting facility” means a facility that receives C&D debris and/or processes C&D debris into its component material types for reuse, recycling, and disposal of residuals and possesses a valid certificate as a C&D sorting facility from the Sacramento Regional County Solid Waste Authority. “Construction and demolition debris” or “C&D debris” means used or commonly discarded materials resulting from construction, repair, remodel or demolition operations on any pavement, house, building, or other structure, or from landscaping that are not hazardous as defined in California Health and Safety Code section 25100 et seq. Such materials include, but are not limited to, concrete, asphalt, wood, metal, brick, dirt, sand, rock, gravel, plaster, glass, gypsum wallboard, cardboard and other associated packaging, roofing material, ceramic tile, carpeting, masonry, plastic pipe, trees, and other vegetative matter resulting from land clearing and landscaping. “Divert” or “diversion” means to use materials for any purpose other than disposal in a landfill or transformation facility. Methods to divert materials include on-site reuse of the materials, delivery of materials from the project site to a certified C&D sorting facility or a recycling facility, or other methods as approved in regulations promulgated by the City Department of Utilities.

“Franchised waste hauler” means a person who possesses a valid commercial solid waste collection franchise issued by the Sacramento Regional County Solid Waste Authority. “Mixed C&D debris” means loads that include commingled recyclable and non-recyclable C&D debris generated at a project site.
“Recyclable C&D debris” means C&D debris required to be diverted from landfills as specified in the Waste Management Plan and returned to the economic mainstream in the form of raw material for new, reused or reconstituted products that meet the quality standards necessary to be used in the marketplace. “Recycling facility” means a facility or operation that receives, processes, and transfers source-separated recyclable materials.
“Source-separated C&D debris” means recyclable C&D debris that is separately sorted and containerized at the site of generation by individual material type and segregated from mixed C&D debris prior to collection and transporting. “Waste log” means a record detailing the management of C&D debris generated by the covered project, including the date and weight/volume of material by type that was salvaged, reused, recycled or disposed.

2. Waste Management Plan. A completed WMP (see Attachment 1) must be submitted to and approved by the City prior to commencing any work on the project. The WMP must specify the types of C&D debris that will be generated from the project; the manner in which C&D debris will be managed and/or stored on the project site; the manner in which recyclable C&D debris generated from the project will be recycled or reuse; the person who will haul, collect or transport the recyclable C&D debris from the project site; and the certified C&D sorting facility or recycling facility where recyclable C&D debris will be delivered. The WMP must be approved by the City prior to commencing any work on the project.

3. Contractor shall be solely responsible for diverting the recyclable C&D materials specified on the WMP. Mixed C&D debris shall be delivered to a SWA-certified C&D sorting facility only. Only the permit holder, the person who generates the waste, a franchised waste hauler, or the City of Sacramento can transport or haul mixed C&D debris. Source-separated C&D debris may be delivered by any person to any recycling facility that accepts such materials. (See Attachment 2 for list of C&D Debris Haulers and Facilities).

4 4. During the course of the project, Contractor shall maintain a waste log (see Attachment 3), and keep all weight tickets or weight receipts, for all C&D debris hauled away from the project. At a minimum, the waste log shall specify the C&D debris generated by the project; the manner in which C&D debris was recycled or re-used; and the facility where the C&D debris was delivered.

Please read and understand these terms. Call Recycling & Solid Waste (RSW) at (916) 808-0965 if these terms are not clear to you. More information is also available online at 32TUhttp://www.cityofsacramento.org/public-works/RSW/CollectionServices/Recycling/Construction-and-DemolitionU32T.

1. Self-haul or self-hauling: This is when the permit holder, general contractor, or a subcontractor who is doing work on the project hauls their own waste materials for recycling or disposal. Note that a jobsite cleanup crew is not doing other work on the project and is not self-hauling. Jobsite cleanup crews must be franchised in order to haul mixed C&D debris away.

2. Franchised hauler: See a list provided at 32Thttps://swa.saccounty.net/Pages/Franchisee-Listing.aspx 32T. These companies are the only companies in Sacramento who can legally collect and haul mixed C&D debris.

3. Source separation: This is achieving compliance with the recycling requirement by keeping wood, metal, cardboard, or other recyclables in separate containers. Source-separated material may be hauled by anyone.

4. Mixed C&D debris: This is achieving compliance with the recycling requirement by putting all recyclable debris into one container. Mixed material must be sent to a certified mixed C&D sorting facility to have the recyclable material extracted and recovered. Mixed material also must be either self-hauled, or hauled by a franchised hauler. If your job site is crowded, this option saves the most space.

5. Certified Mixed C&D Sorting Facility: See list at 32Thttps://swa.saccounty.net/Pages/CDDebrisSortingFacilities.aspx 32T .

These facilities have been certified by the Sacramento Regional Solid Waste Authority to extract recyclable materials from mixed C&D debris. If you achieve compliance by mixed recovery, your debris must go to a certified mixed sorting facility.

Terms and Conditions
x Your approved Waste Management Plan and Waste Log must be kept on the job site in the permit folder for the duration of the project.
x City of Sacramento staff may enter the jobsite to inspect waste collection areas. x Only SWA-Certified Mixed C&D Sorting Facilities may be used to recycle these materials if mixed with other materials. x Only SWA-Franchised Haulers or self-haulers (as defined above) may collect and transport trash or mixed C&D material from the jobsite.
x Construction and Demolition Debris may not be burned or dumped illegally. x Your Waste Log must be completed and submitted within 30 days of your permit being finaled or expired.

**END OF SECTION**

ARTICLE 1 ʊ COSTS OF NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

1.01 Given the coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic, each Bidder must understand that the means and methods of construction, and the ways of doing business, have been materially impacted and changed (at least for the foreseeable future). These impacts and changes relate to social distancing, ability to perform at the pace previously performed, personal interaction of workers, implementation of increased safety measures, and a myriad of other impacts to construction operations. Heightened measures to protect persons from illness and the adoption and implementation of many new and more intensive practices will make the performance of construction work different and more challenging.

1.02 It is the intent of the City, by including the previous paragraph, Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Safety Requirements, to alert all Bidders for all aspects of this Project, that they are to include in their Bids all known and reasonably estimated COVID-19 costs and impacts to the ability to obtain goods and materials required, as well as labor to perform the Work. Further, all costs for all of these and other aspects of the project, including supervision, temporary facilities, incidentals, testing, QA/QC, etc. (this listing is intended to be illustrative and not comprehensive) shall be evaluated by each Bidder so its Bid submitted to the City includes all such potential costs in recognition of the foregoing and subsequent notices in this and other sections of the Contract Documents.

1.03 Each Bidder is to critically appraise and evaluate the reasonably anticipated costs and time impacts, if any, which may need to be accounted for in light of the COVID–19 pandemic and all governmental directives and requirements, and commercial impacts, arising therefrom.

1.04 It is the responsibility of each Bidder to alert all Sub-Bidders (potential subcontractors and suppliers of every tier and trade) to also factor in the above-referenced COVID-19 cost and time impacts, if any, into their sub-bids to Bidders for all aspects of the Project.

1.05 By submitting a Bid for this Project, each Bidder represents to the City that it included in its Total Bid Price all cost impacts, whether affecting labor (including, but not limited to obtaining qualified workers, quantity of workers, as well as their productivity); deliveries; supervision; testing; procurement of materials or equipment; and time caused by COVID-19 safety requirements found in all public health and governmental directives in place at the time Bids are received by the City for this Project. Furthermore, each Bidder recognizes it will not be entitled to a change order granting a COVID-19 related time extension or for any COVID-19 related increased costs, which arise from Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Safety Requirements or from any public health or governmental directives in place at the time Bids are received by the City for this Project.
