West Sacramento City Council
November 20, 2024

ANALYSIS
In the process of acquiring the two former motel sites, City staff contracted with Thurmond consulting to perform a site assessment to identify necessary repairs and renovations for safely house the program participants. This assessment was used to develop the scope of work and to provide the engineer’s estimate for the Invitation to Bid. The Capital Projects Department conducted a competitive bid process to select a contractor for the repair and renovation construction of the two former motels. The project was posted for competitive bid on September 23, 2024, and advertised in the local newspaper. The bid package was also posted on the City website and through OpenGov.com. At the close of the bid period, City staff received five bids, which were opened on October 22, 2024. The bid results were as follows:

Ranking Contractor Bid Amount
1 Maximus Development Inc. $414,000
2 Eclipse Pro $465,000
3 International CADD Services Inc. $845,595
4 REM Construction Inc. $889,241
5 TPM Construction Inc. $987,000

After examining the contractor’s licenses, work experience, qualifications, and proposals submitted in each of the bid packages, City staff determined that Maximus Development Inc. is the lowest-cost, responsive, responsible bidder, with a total bid of $414,000. On this basis, City staff recommends awarding the construction contract to Maximus Development Inc.

The bid results were lower than estimated and allowed for City staff to accept and proceed with a bid alternate bringing the contract total to $544,000.

Environmental Considerations
The Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Project (CIP 51047) is exempt from review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the Class 1 (Existing Facilities) Categorical Exemption under California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6 Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines”), Section 15301. Class 1 consists of operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination.

Commission Recommendation
Not applicable.

Strategic Plan Integration
The recommended actions address Homelessness and Communitywide Impacts, which is on the Council’s 2024 Strategic Plan Management Agenda.

Alternatives
The Council’s primary alternatives are summarized below:
1) Approve the recommended actions as described above in this report; or 2) Alter the recommended actions; or
3) Delay the recommended actions or cancel the project.

Staff recommends the Council proceed with Alternative 1 as described in this report. The CDBG grant funding allocated to this project must be utilized prior to the deadline in April 2025 and the construction work included in this contract will allow the City to meet that goal.

Coordination and Review
This report was prepared by the Capital Projects Department and has been coordinated with and reviewed by the Economic Development and Housing Department, and the Finance Department.

Budget/Cost Impact
The City was awarded $2.6 million in State Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) Program funds by Yolo County, of which $380,000 is specifically for repairs. Additionally, the City Council previously authorized an allocation of $482,660 in local Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to support needed repairs 125

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) provides a toll-free hotline to report bid rigging activities.

Use the hotline to report bid rigging, bidder collusion, and other fraudulent activities. The hotline number is (800) 424-9071. The service is available 24 hours 7 days a week and is confidential and anonymous.

3.CONTRACT AWARD
If the Agency awards the contract, the award is made to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.

4.CONTRACTOR LICENSE
The Contractor must be properly licensed as a contractor from contract award through Contract acceptance (Public Contract Code § 10164).

5.CHANGED CONDITIONS
a. Differing Site Conditions

1. During the progress of the work, if subsurface or latent physical conditions are encountered at the site differing materially from those indicated in the contract or if unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the work provided for in the contract, are encountered at the site, the party discovering such conditions shall promptly notify the other party in writing of the specific differing conditions before the site is disturbed and before the affected work is performed.

2. Upon written notification, the engineer will investigate the conditions, and if it is determined that the conditions materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost or time required for the performance of any work under the contract, an adjustment, excluding anticipated profits, will be made and the contract modified in writing accordingly. The engineer will notify the contractor of the determination whether or not an adjustment of the contract is warranted.

3. No contract adjustment which results in a benefit to the contractor will be allowed unless the contractor has provided the required written notice.
146
2 4. No contract adjustment will be allowed under this clause for any effects caused on unchanged work. (This provision may be omitted by the Local Agency, at their option.) b. Suspensions of Work Ordered by the Engineer

1. If the performance of all or any portion of the work is suspended or delayed by the engineer in writing for an unreasonable period of time (not originally anticipated, customary, or inherent to the construction industry) and the contractor believes that additional compensation and/or contract time is due as a result of such suspension or delay, the contractor shall submit to the engineer in writing a request for adjustment within 7 calendar days of receipt of the notice to resume work. The request shall set forth the reasons and support for such adjustment.

2. Upon receipt, the engineer will evaluate the contractor's request. If the engineer agrees that the cost and/or time required for the performance of the contract has increased as a result of such suspension and the suspension was caused by conditions beyond the control of and not the fault of the contractor, its suppliers, or subcontractors at any approved tier, and not caused by weather, the engineer will make an adjustment (excluding profit) and modify the contract in writing accordingly. The contractor will be notified of the engineer's determination whether or not an adjustment of the contract is warranted.

3. No contract adjustment will be allowed unless the contractor has submitted the request for adjustment within the time prescribed.

4. No contract adjustment will be allowed under this clause to the extent that performance would have been suspended or delayed by any other cause, or for which an adjustment is provided or excluded under any other term or condition of this contract. c. Significant Changes in the Character of Work

1. The engineer reserves the right to make, in writing, at any time during the work, such changes in quantities and such alterations in the work as are necessary to satisfactorily complete the project. Such changes in quantities and alterations shall not invalidate the contract nor release the surety, and the contractor agrees to perform the work as altered.

2. If the alterations or changes in quantities significantly change the character of the work under the contract, whether such alterations or changes are in themselves significant changes to the character of the work or by affecting other work cause such other work to become significantly different in character, an adjustment, excluding anticipated profit, will be made to the contract.

The basis for the adjustment shall be agreed upon prior to the performance of the work. If a basis cannot be agreed upon, then an adjustment will be made either for or against the contractor in such amount as the engineer may determine to be fair and equitable.

3. If the alterations or changes in quantities do not significantly change the character of the work to be performed under the contract, the altered work will be paid for as provided elsewhere in the contract.

4. The term “significant change” shall be construed to apply only to the following circumstances:
• When the character of the work as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that involved or included in the original proposed construction; or • When a major item of work, as defined elsewhere in the contract, is increased in excess of 125 percent or decreased below 75 percent of the original contract quantity. Any allowance for an increase in quantity shall apply only to that portion in excess of 125 percent of original contract item quantity, or in case of a decrease below 75 percent, to the actual amount of work performed.

6.BEGINNING OF WORK, TIME OF COMPLETION AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES The Contractor shall begin work within 15 calendar days after the issuance of the Notice to Proceed.

This work shall be diligently prosecuted to completion before the expiration of Two Hundred Fifty (250) WORKING DAYS beginning on the fifteenth calendar day after the date shown on the Notice to Proceed.

The Contractor shall pay to the City/County the sum of $6,800 per day, for each and every calendar days’ delay in finishing the work in excess of the number of working days prescribed above. 147 3 7.BUY AMERICA

The applicable requirements of Form FHWA-1273 are
incorporated by reference for work done under any purchase order, rental agreement or agreement for other services. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor, lower-tier subcontractor or service provider. 23 CFR 633.102(e).

Form FHWA-1273 must be included in all Federal-aid designbuild contracts, in all subcontracts and in lower tier subcontracts (excluding subcontracts for design services, purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services) in accordance with 23 CFR 633.102. The design-builder shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor, lower-tier subcontractor or service provider.

Contracting agencies may reference Form FHWA-1273 in
solicitation-for-bids or request-for-proposals documents, however, the Form FHWA-1273 must be physically
incorporated (not referenced) in all contracts, subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (excluding purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services related to a construction contract). 23 CFR 633.102(b).

2. Subject to the applicability criteria noted in the following sections, these contract provisions shall apply to all work performed on the contract by the contractor's own organization and with the assistance of workers under the contractor's immediate superintendence and to all work performed on the contract by piecework, station work, or by subcontract. 23 CFR 633.102(d).

3. A breach of any of the stipulations contained in these Required Contract Provisions may be sufficient grounds for withholding of progress payments, withholding of final
payment, termination of the contract, suspension / debarment or any other action determined to be appropriate by the contracting agency and FHWA.

4. Selection of Labor: During the performance of this contract, the contractor shall not use convict labor for any purpose within the limits of a construction project on a Federal-aid highway unless it is labor performed by convicts who are on parole, supervised release, or probation. 23 U.S.C. 114(b).

The term Federal-aid highway does not include roadways
functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors. 23 U.S.C. 101(a).

II. NONDISCRIMINATION (23 CFR 230.107(a); 23 CFR Part
230, Subpart A, Appendix A; EO 11246)
The provisions of this section related to 23 CFR Part 230, Subpart A, Appendix A are applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related construction
subcontracts of $10,000 or more. The provisions of 23 CFR Part 230 are not applicable to material supply, engineering, or architectural service contracts.

In addition, the contractor and all subcontractors must comply with the following policies: Executive Order 11246, 41 CFR Part 60, 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627, 23 U.S.C. 140, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794), Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.), and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26, and 27; and 23 CFR Parts 200, 230, and 633.

The contractor and all subcontractors must comply with: the requirements of the Equal Opportunity Clause in 41 CFR 60-

1.4(b) and, for all construction contracts exceeding $10,000, the Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity
Construction Contract Specifications in 41 CFR 60-4.3.

Note: The U.S. Department of Labor has exclusive authority to determine compliance with Executive Order 11246 and the policies of the Secretary of Labor including 41 CFR Part 60, and 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627. The contracting agency and
the FHWA have the authority and the responsibility to ensure compliance with 23 U.S.C. 140, Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794), and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.), and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26, and 27; and 23 CFR Parts 200, 230, and 633.

The following provision is adopted from 23 CFR Part 230, Subpart A, Appendix A, with appropriate revisions to conform to the U.S. Department of Labor (US DOL) and FHWA
requirements.
150
2 1. Equal Employment Opportunity: Equal Employment
Opportunity (EEO) requirements not to discriminate and to take affirmative action to assure equal opportunity as set forth under laws, executive orders, rules, regulations (see 28 CFR Part 35, 29 CFR Part 1630, 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627, 41 CFR Part 60 and 49 CFR Part 27) and orders of the Secretary of Labor as modified by the provisions prescribed herein, and imposed pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 140, shall constitute the EEO and specific affirmative action standards for the contractor's project activities under this contract. The provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR Part 35 and 29 CFR Part 1630 are incorporated by reference in this contract. In the execution of this contract, the contractor agrees to comply with the following minimum specific requirement activities of EEO:
a. The contractor will work with the contracting agency and the Federal Government to ensure that it has made every good faith effort to provide equal opportunity with respect to all of its terms and conditions of employment and in their review of activities under the contract. 23 CFR 230.409 (g)(4) & (5). b. The contractor will accept as its operating policy the following statement:
"It is the policy of this Company to assure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during
employment, without regard to their race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, color, national origin, age or disability. Such action shall include: employment,
upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including
apprenticeship, pre-apprenticeship, and/or on-the-job
training."

2. EEO Officer: The contractor will designate and make
known to the contracting officers an EEO Officer who will have the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively administering and promoting an active EEO program and who must be assigned adequate authority and responsibility to do so.

3. Dissemination of Policy: All members of the contractor's staff who are authorized to hire, supervise, promote, and discharge employees, or who recommend such action or are substantially involved in such action, will be made fully cognizant of and will implement the contractor's EEO policy and contractual responsibilities to provide EEO in each grade and classification of employment. To ensure that the above agreement will be met, the following actions will be taken as a minimum:
a. Periodic meetings of supervisory and personnel office employees will be conducted before the start of work and then not less often than once every six months, at which time the contractor's EEO policy and its implementation will be
reviewed and explained. The meetings will be conducted by the EEO Officer or other knowledgeable company official.

b. All new supervisory or personnel office employees will be given a thorough indoctrination by the EEO Officer, covering all major aspects of the contractor's EEO obligations within thirty days following their reporting for duty with the contractor. c. All personnel who are engaged in direct recruitment for the project will be instructed by the EEO Officer in the contractor's procedures for locating and hiring minorities and women.

d. Notices and posters setting forth the contractor's EEO policy will be placed in areas readily accessible to employees, applicants for employment and potential employees.
e. The contractor's EEO policy and the procedures to
implement such policy will be brought to the attention of employees by means of meetings, employee handbooks, or
other appropriate means.

4. Recruitment: When advertising for employees, the
contractor will include in all advertisements for employees the notation: "An Equal Opportunity Employer." All such
advertisements will be placed in publications having a large circulation among minorities and women in the area from which the project work force would normally be derived. a. The contractor will, unless precluded by a valid
bargaining agreement, conduct systematic and direct
recruitment through public and private employee referral sources likely to yield qualified minorities and women. To meet this requirement, the contractor will identify sources of potential minority group employees and establish with such identified sources procedures whereby minority and women applicants may be referred to the contractor for employment consideration.
b. In the event the contractor has a valid bargaining
agreement providing for exclusive hiring hall referrals, the contractor is expected to observe the provisions of that agreement to the extent that the system meets the contractor's compliance with EEO contract provisions. Where
implementation of such an agreement has the effect of
discriminating against minorities or women, or obligates the contractor to do the same, such implementation violates Federal nondiscrimination provisions.
c. The contractor will encourage its present employees to refer minorities and women as applicants for employment.

Information and procedures with regard to referring such applicants will be discussed with employees.

5. Personnel Actions: Wages, working conditions, and
employee benefits shall be established and administered, and personnel actions of every type, including hiring, upgrading, promotion, transfer, demotion, layoff, and termination, shall be taken without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age or disability.

The following procedures shall be followed:
a. The contractor will conduct periodic inspections of project sites to ensure that working conditions and employee facilities do not indicate discriminatory treatment of project site personnel.
b. The contractor will periodically evaluate the spread of wages paid within each classification to determine any
evidence of discriminatory wage practices.
c. The contractor will periodically review selected personnel actions in depth to determine whether there is evidence of discrimination. Where evidence is found, the contractor will promptly take corrective action. If the review indicates that the discrimination may extend beyond the actions reviewed, such corrective action shall include all affected persons.
d. The contractor will promptly investigate all complaints of alleged discrimination made to the contractor in connection with its obligations under this contract, will attempt to resolve such complaints, and will take appropriate corrective action 151
3 within a reasonable time. If the investigation indicates that the discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant, such corrective action shall include such other persons. Upon completion of each investigation, the contractor will inform every complainant of all of their avenues of appeal.

6. Training and Promotion:
a. The contractor will assist in locating, qualifying, and increasing the skills of minorities and women who are
applicants for employment or current employees. Such efforts should be aimed at developing full journey level status employees in the type of trade or job classification involved. b. Consistent with the contractor's work force requirements and as permissible under Federal and State regulations, the contractor shall make full use of training programs (i.e., apprenticeship and on-the-job training programs for the geographical area of contract performance). In the event a special provision for training is provided under this contract, this subparagraph will be superseded as indicated in the special provision. The contracting agency may reserve
training positions for persons who receive welfare assistance in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 140(a).
c. The contractor will advise employees and applicants for employment of available training programs and entrance
requirements for each.
d. The contractor will periodically review the training and promotion potential of employees who are minorities and women and will encourage eligible employees to apply for such training and promotion.

7. Unions: If the contractor relies in whole or in part upon unions as a source of employees, the contractor will use good faith efforts to obtain the cooperation of such unions to increase opportunities for minorities and women. 23 CFR 230.409. Actions by the contractor, either directly or through a contractor's association acting as agent, will include the procedures set forth below:
a. The contractor will use good faith efforts to develop, in cooperation with the unions, joint training programs aimed toward qualifying more minorities and women for membership in the unions and increasing the skills of minorities and women so that they may qualify for higher paying employment.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to incorporate an EEO clause into each union agreement to the end that such union will be contractually bound to refer applicants without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability.
c. The contractor is to obtain information as to the referral practices and policies of the labor union except that to the extent such information is within the exclusive possession of the labor union and such labor union refuses to furnish such information to the contractor, the contractor shall so certify to the contracting agency and shall set forth what efforts have been made to obtain such information.
d. In the event the union is unable to provide the contractor with a reasonable flow of referrals within the time limit set forth in the collective bargaining agreement, the contractor will, through independent recruitment efforts, fill the employment vacancies without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability; making full efforts to obtain qualified and/or qualifiable minorities and women. The failure of a union to provide sufficient referrals (even though it is obligated to provide exclusive referrals under the terms of a collective bargaining agreement) does not relieve the contractor from the
requirements of this paragraph. In the event the union referral practice prevents the contractor from meeting the obligations pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and these special provisions, such contractor shall immediately notify the contracting agency.

8. Reasonable Accommodation for Applicants /
Employees with Disabilities: The contractor must be familiar with the requirements for and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and all rules and regulations established thereunder. Employers must provide reasonable
accommodation in all employment activities unless to do so would cause an undue hardship.

9. Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials and Leasing of Equipment: The contractor shall not
discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability in the selection and retention of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment. The
contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure nondiscrimination in the administration of this contract. a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors, suppliers, and lessors of their EEO obligations under this contract.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to ensure subcontractor compliance with their EEO obligations.

10. Assurances Required:
a. The requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 and the State
DOT’s FHWA-approved Disadvantaged Business Enterprise
(DBE) program are incorporated by reference.
b. The contractor, subrecipient or subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR part 26 in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as the recipient deems
appropriate, which may include, but is not limited to:
(1) Withholding monthly progress payments;
(2) Assessing sanctions;
(3) Liquidated damages; and/or
(4) Disqualifying the contractor from future bidding as nonresponsible. c. The Title VI and nondiscrimination provisions of U.S.

DOT Order 1050.2A at Appendixes A and E are incorporated by reference. 49 CFR Part 21.

11. Records and Reports: The contractor shall keep such records as necessary to document compliance with the EEO requirements. Such records shall be retained for a period of three years following the date of the final payment to the contractor for all contract work and shall be available at reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized representatives of the contracting agency and the FHWA. a. The records kept by the contractor shall document the following:
152
4 (1) The number and work hours of minority and nonminority group members and women employed in each work classification on the project;
(2) The progress and efforts being made in cooperation
with unions, when applicable, to increase employment
opportunities for minorities and women; and
(3) The progress and efforts being made in locating, hiring, training, qualifying, and upgrading minorities and women. b. The contractors and subcontractors will submit an annual report to the contracting agency each July for the duration of the project indicating the number of minority, women, and nonminority group employees currently engaged in each work classification required by the contract work. This information is to be reported on Form FHWA-1391. The staffing data should represent the project work force on board in all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July. If on-the-job training is being required by special provision, the contractor will be required to collect and report training data. The employment data should reflect the work force on board during all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July.

III. NONSEGREGATED FACILITIES
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related construction subcontracts of more than $10,000. 41 CFR 60-1.5.

As prescribed by 41 CFR 60-1.8, the contractor must ensure that facilities provided for employees are provided in such a manner that segregation on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin cannot result. The contractor may neither require such
segregated use by written or oral policies nor tolerate such use by employee custom. The contractor's obligation extends further to ensure that its employees are not assigned to perform their services at any location under the contractor's control where the facilities are segregated. The term "facilities" includes waiting rooms, work areas, restaurants and other eating areas, time clocks, restrooms, washrooms, locker rooms and other storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas,
transportation, and housing provided for employees. The contractor shall provide separate or single-user restrooms and necessary dressing or sleeping areas to assure privacy
between sexes.

IV. DAVIS-BACON AND RELATED ACT PROVISIONS
This section is applicable to all Federal-aid construction projects exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (regardless of subcontract size), in accordance with 29 CFR 5.5. The requirements apply to all projects located within the right-of-way of a roadway that is functionally classified as Federal-aid highway. 23 U.S.C. 113.

This excludes roadways functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors, which are exempt. 23 U.S.C. 101.

Where applicable law requires that projects be treated as a project on a Federal-aid highway, the provisions of this subpart will apply regardless of the location of the project. Examples include: Surface Transportation Block Grant Program projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 133 [excluding recreational trails projects], the Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 117, and National Highway Freight Program projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 167.

The following provisions are from the U.S. Department of Labor regulations in 29 CFR 5.5 “Contract provisions and related matters” with minor revisions to conform to the FHWA1273 format and FHWA program requirements.

1. Minimum wages (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Wage rates and fringe benefits. All laborers and
mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project under a development statute), will be paid
unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account
(except such payroll deductions as are permitted by
regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the
Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount of basic hourly wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the
Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers and mechanics. As provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 29 CFR 5.5, the appropriate wage determinations are effective by operation of law even if they have not been attached to the contract. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B)) on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of paragraph 1.e. of this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the particular weekly period, are
deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such laborers and mechanics must be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage
determination for the classification(s) of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in paragraph 4. of this section. Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classifications and wage rates conformed under paragraph 1.c. of this section) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH–1321) must be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the workers. b. Frequently recurring classifications. (1) In addition to wage and fringe benefit rates that have been determined to be prevailing under the procedures set forth in 29 CFR part 1, a wage determination may contain, pursuant to § 1.3(f), wage and fringe benefit rates for classifications of laborers and mechanics for which conformance requests are regularly
submitted pursuant to paragraph 1.c. of this section, provided that:
(i) The work performed by the classification is not
performed by a classification in the wage determination for which a prevailing wage rate has been determined;
153
5 (ii) The classification is used in the area by the
construction industry; and
(iii) The wage rate for the classification bears a reasonable relationship to the prevailing wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(2) The Administrator will establish wage rates for such classifications in accordance with paragraph 1.c.(1)(iii) of this section. Work performed in such a classification must be paid at no less than the wage and fringe benefit rate listed on the wage determination for such classification.
c. Conformance. (1) The contracting officer must require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract be classified in conformance with the wage determination. Conformance of an additional
classification and wage rate and fringe benefits is appropriate only when the following criteria have been met:
(i) The work to be performed by the classification
requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; and
(ii) The classification is used in the area by the
construction industry; and
(iii) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(2) The conformance process may not be used to split,
subdivide, or otherwise avoid application of classifications listed in the wage determination.
(3) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their
representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken will be sent by the contracting officer by email to [email protected]. The Administrator, or an
authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30–day period that additional time is necessary.
(4) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed
classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the contracting officer will, by email to [email protected], refer the
questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30–day period that additional time is necessary.
(5) The contracting officer must promptly notify the
contractor of the action taken by the Wage and Hour Division under paragraphs 1.c.(3) and (4) of this section. The contractor must furnish a written copy of such determination to each affected worker or it must be posted as a part of the wage determination. The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraph 1.c.(3) or (4) of this section must be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
d. Fringe benefits not expressed as an hourly rate.

Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor may either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or may pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
e. Unfunded plans. If the contractor does not make
payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, in accordance with the criteria set forth in § 5.28, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the
contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.
f. Interest. In the event of a failure to pay all or part of the wages required by the contract, the contractor will be required to pay interest on any underpayment of wages.

2. Withholding (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Withholding requirements. The contracting agency may, upon its own action, or must, upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered
necessary to satisfy the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for the full amount of wages and monetary relief, including interest, required by the clauses set forth in this section for violations of this contract, or to satisfy any such liabilities required by any other Federal contract, or federally assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon labor standards, that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from the contractor under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract that is subject to Davis-Bacon labor standards requirements and is held by the same prime contractor, regardless of whether the other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy the contractor liability for which the funds were withheld. In the event of a
contractor's failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice or helper working on the site of the work all or part of the wages required by the contract, or upon the contractor's failure to submit the required records as discussed in paragraph 3.d. of this section, the contracting agency may on its own initiative and after written notice to the contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the
suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.
b. Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with paragraph 154
6 2.a. of this section or Section V, paragraph 3.a., or both, over claims to those funds by:
(1) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(2) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(3) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(4) A contractor's assignee(s);
(5) A contractor's successor(s); or
(6) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31
U.S.C. 3901–3907.

3. Records and certified payrolls (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Basic record requirements (1) Length of record retention.

All regular payrolls and other basic records must be
maintained by the contractor and any subcontractor during the course of the work and preserved for all laborers and
mechanics working at the site of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project under a development statute) for a period of at least 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
(2) Information required. Such records must contain the name; Social Security number; last known address, telephone number, and email address of each such worker; each
worker's correct classification(s) of work actually performed; hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act); daily and weekly number of hours actually worked in total and on each covered contract; deductions made; and actual wages paid.
(3) Additional records relating to fringe benefits. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under paragraph 1.e. of this section that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor must
maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits.
(4) Additional records relating to apprenticeship. Contractors with apprentices working under approved programs must
maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs, the registration of the apprentices, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs.
b. Certified payroll requirements (1) Frequency and method of submission. The contractor or subcontractor must submit weekly, for each week in which any DBA- or Related Actscovered work is performed, certified payrolls to the contracting agency. The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of all certified payrolls by all subcontractors. A contracting agency or prime contractor may permit or require contractors to submit certified payrolls through an electronic system, as long as the electronic system requires a legally valid electronic signature; the system allows the contractor, the contracting agency, and the Department of Labor to access the certified payrolls upon request for at least 3 years after the work on the prime contract has been completed; and the contracting
agency or prime contractor permits other methods of
submission in situations where the contractor is unable or limited in its ability to use or access the electronic system. (2) Information required. The certified payrolls submitted must set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under paragraph 3.a.(2) of this section, except that full Social Security numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses must not be included on weekly transmittals. Instead, the certified payrolls need only include an individually identifying number for each worker ( e.g., the last four digits of the worker's Social Security number). The required weekly
certified payroll information may be submitted using Optional Form WH–347 or in any other format desired. Optional Form WH–347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division website at https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/WHD/ legacy/files/wh347/.pdf or its successor website. It is not a violation of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide full Social Security numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses to the prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission by the subcontractor to the contracting agency. (3) Statement of Compliance. Each certified payroll
submitted must be accompanied by a “Statement of
Compliance,” signed by the contractor or subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons working on the contract, and must certify the following:
(i) That the certified payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under paragraph 3.b. of this section, the appropriate information and basic records are being maintained under paragraph 3.a. of this section, and such information and records are correct and complete; (ii) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper and apprentice) working on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set
forth in 29 CFR part 3; and
(iii) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification(s) of work actually
performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.
(4) Use of Optional Form WH–347. The weekly submission
of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH–347 will satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance” required by paragraph 3.b.(3) of this section.
155
7 (5) Signature. The signature by the contractor,
subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent must be an original handwritten signature or a legally valid electronic signature.
(6) Falsification. The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 31 U.S.C. 3729.
(7) Length of certified payroll retention. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve all certified payrolls during the course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
c. Contracts, subcontracts, and related documents. The
contractor or subcontractor must maintain this contract or subcontract and related documents including, without
limitation, bids, proposals, amendments, modifications, and extensions. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve these contracts, subcontracts, and related documents during the course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
d. Required disclosures and access (1) Required record
disclosures and access to workers. The contractor or
subcontractor must make the records required under
paragraphs 3.a. through 3.c. of this section, and any other documents that the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, or the Department of Labor deems necessary to
determine compliance with the labor standards provisions of any of the applicable statutes referenced by § 5.1, available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized
representatives of the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, or the Department of Labor, and must permit such
representatives to interview workers during working hours on the job.
(2) Sanctions for non-compliance with records and worker access requirements. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, or refuses to permit worker interviews during working hours on the job, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, owner, or other entity, as the case may be, that maintains such records or that employs such workers, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available, or to permit worker interviews during working hours on the job, may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to § 5.12. In addition, any contractor or other person that fails to submit the required records or make those records available to WHD within the time WHD requests that the records be produced will be
precluded from introducing as evidence in an administrative proceeding under 29 CFR part 6 any of the required records that were not provided or made available to WHD. WHD will take into consideration a reasonable request from the
contractor or person for an extension of the time for
submission of records. WHD will determine the
reasonableness of the request and may consider, among other things, the location of the records and the volume of
production.
(3) Required information disclosures. Contractors and
subcontractors must maintain the full Social Security number and last known address, telephone number, and email address of each covered worker, and must provide them upon request to the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, the contractor, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or other compliance action.

4. Apprentices and equal employment opportunity (29 CFR

5.5)
a. Apprentices (1) Rate of pay. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they perform when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship (OA), or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the OA. A person who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the OA or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice, will be permitted to work at less than the
predetermined rate for the work they perform in the first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such a program. In the event the OA or a State Apprenticeship
Agency recognized by the OA withdraws approval of an
apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to use apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(2) Fringe benefits. Apprentices must be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringe benefits must be paid in accordance with that
determination.
(3) Apprenticeship ratio. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyworkers on the job site in any craft classification must not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program or the ratio applicable to the locality of the project pursuant to paragraph

4.a.(4) of this section. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated in paragraph 4.a.(1) of this section, must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed.

In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under this section must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the work actually performed.
(4) Reciprocity of ratios and wage rates. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than the locality in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyworker's hourly rate) applicable within the locality in which the construction is being performed must be observed. If there is no applicable ratio or wage rate for the locality of the project, the ratio and wage rate specified in the contractor's registered program must be observed.
b. Equal employment opportunity. The use of apprentices and journeyworkers under this part must be in conformity with 156
8 the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
c. Apprentices and Trainees (programs of the U.S. DOT).

Apprentices and trainees working under apprenticeship and skill training programs which have been certified by the Secretary of Transportation as promoting EEO in connection with Federal-aid highway construction programs are not
subject to the requirements of paragraph 4 of this Section IV. 23 CFR 230.111(e)(2). The straight time hourly wage rates for apprentices and trainees under such programs will be
established by the particular programs. The ratio of
apprentices and trainees to journeyworkers shall not be greater than permitted by the terms of the particular program.

5. Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The
contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract as provided in 29 CFR 5.5.

6. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert FHWA-1273 in any subcontracts, along with the applicable wage determination(s) and such other clauses or contract modifications as the contracting agency may by appropriate instructions require, and a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses and wage determination(s) in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor is responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier
subcontractor with all the contract clauses in this section. In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any subcontractor(s) responsible will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of the underpayment or loss, due to any workers of lower-tier subcontractors, and may be subject to debarment, as appropriate. 29 CFR 5.5.

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

8. Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act
requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the DavisBacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract as provided in 29 CFR 5.5.

9. Disputes concerning labor standards. As provided in 29 CFR 5.5, disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their
representatives.

10. Certification of eligibility. a. By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of 40 U.S.C. 3144(b) or § 5.12(a).
b. No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of 40 U.S.C. 3144(b) or § 5.12(a).
c. The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Code, Title 18 Crimes and Criminal Procedure, 18 U.S.C. 1001.

11. Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
a. Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
b. Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
c. Cooperating in any investigation or other compliance action, or testifying in any proceeding under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3; or
d. Informing any other person about their rights under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3.

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

1. Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any
workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek. 29 CFR

5.5. 2. Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section the contractor and any
subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages and interest from the date of the underpayment.

In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or 157
9 mechanic, including watchpersons and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section, in the sum currently provided in 29 CFR 5.5(b)(2)* for each calendar day on which such individual was required or
permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section.
* $31 as of January 15, 2023 (See 88 FR 88 FR 2210) as may be adjusted annually by the Department of Labor, pursuant to the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990.

3. Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages
a. Withholding process. The FHWA or the contracting
agency may, upon its own action, or must, upon written
request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be
considered necessary to satisfy the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for any unpaid wages;
monetary relief, including interest; and liquidated damages required by the clauses set forth in this section on this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from the contractor under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract that is subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act and is held by the same prime contractor, regardless of whether the other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy the
contractor liability for which the funds were withheld. b. Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with Section IV paragraph 2.a. or paragraph 3.a. of this section, or both, over claims to those funds by:
(1) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(2) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(3) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(4) A contractor's assignee(s);
(5) A contractor's successor(s); or
(6) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31
U.S.C. 3901–3907.

4. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraphs 1. through 5. of this section and a clause requiring the
subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor is responsible for
compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs 1. through 5. In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any subcontractor(s) responsible will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of the underpayment or loss, due to any workers of lowertier subcontractors, and associated liquidated damages and may be subject to debarment, as appropriate.

5. Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
a. Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (CWHSSA) or its
implementing regulations in this part;
b. Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under CWHSSA or this part;

VI. SUBLETTING OR ASSIGNING THE CONTRACT
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts on the National Highway System pursuant to 23 CFR 635.116.

1. The contractor shall perform with its own organization contract work amounting to not less than 30 percent (or a greater percentage if specified elsewhere in the contract) of the total original contract price, excluding any specialty items designated by the contracting agency. Specialty items may be performed by subcontract and the amount of any such
specialty items performed may be deducted from the total original contract price before computing the amount of work required to be performed by the contractor's own organization (23 CFR 635.116).
a. The term “perform work with its own organization” in paragraph 1 of Section VI refers to workers employed or leased by the prime contractor, and equipment owned or
rented by the prime contractor, with or without operators.

Such term does not include employees or equipment of a
subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor, agents of the prime contractor, or any other assignees. The term may include payments for the costs of hiring leased employees from an employee leasing firm meeting all relevant Federal and State regulatory requirements. Leased employees may only be
included in this term if the prime contractor meets all of the following conditions: (based on longstanding interpretation) (1) the prime contractor maintains control over the
supervision of the day-to-day activities of the leased
employees;
(2) the prime contractor remains responsible for the quality of the work of the leased employees;
158
10 (3) the prime contractor retains all power to accept or exclude individual employees from work on the project; and (4) the prime contractor remains ultimately responsible for the payment of predetermined minimum wages, the
submission of payrolls, statements of compliance and all other Federal regulatory requirements.
b. "Specialty Items" shall be construed to be limited to work that requires highly specialized knowledge, abilities, or equipment not ordinarily available in the type of contracting organizations qualified and expected to bid or propose on the contract as a whole and in general are to be limited to minor components of the overall contract. 23 CFR 635.102.

2. Pursuant to 23 CFR 635.116(a), the contract amount upon which the requirements set forth in paragraph (1) of Section VI is computed includes the cost of material and manufactured products which are to be purchased or produced by the
contractor under the contract provisions.

3. Pursuant to 23 CFR 635.116(c), the contractor shall furnish (a) a competent superintendent or supervisor who is employed by the firm, has full authority to direct performance of the work in accordance with the contract requirements, and is in charge of all construction operations (regardless of who performs the work) and (b) such other of its own organizational resources (supervision, management, and engineering services) as the contracting officer determines is necessary to assure the performance of the contract.

4. No portion of the contract shall be sublet, assigned or otherwise disposed of except with the written consent of the contracting officer, or authorized representative, and such consent when given shall not be construed to relieve the contractor of any responsibility for the fulfillment of the contract. Written consent will be given only after the
contracting agency has assured that each subcontract is evidenced in writing and that it contains all pertinent provisions and requirements of the prime contract. (based on longstanding interpretation of 23 CFR 635.116).

5. The 30-percent self-performance requirement of paragraph (1) is not applicable to design-build contracts; however, contracting agencies may establish their own self-performance requirements. 23 CFR 635.116(d).

VII. SAFETY: ACCIDENT PREVENTION
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.

1. In the performance of this contract the contractor shall comply with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws governing safety, health, and sanitation (23 CFR Part 635).

The contractor shall provide all safeguards, safety devices and protective equipment and take any other needed actions as it determines, or as the contracting officer may determine, to be reasonably necessary to protect the life and health of
employees on the job and the safety of the public and to protect property in connection with the performance of the work covered by the contract. 23 CFR 635.108.

2. It is a condition of this contract, and shall be made a condition of each subcontract, which the contractor enters into pursuant to this contract, that the contractor and any
subcontractor shall not permit any employee, in performance of the contract, to work in surroundings or under conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous to his/her health or safety, as determined under construction safety and health standards (29 CFR Part 1926) promulgated by the
Secretary of Labor, in accordance with Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3704). 29 CFR 1926.10.

3. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1926.3, it is a condition of this contract that the Secretary of Labor or authorized representative thereof, shall have right of entry to any site of contract performance to inspect or investigate the matter of compliance with the construction safety and health standards and to carry out the duties of the Secretary under Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3704).

VIII. FALSE STATEMENTS CONCERNING HIGHWAY

PROJECTS
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.

In order to assure high quality and durable construction in conformity with approved plans and specifications and a high degree of reliability on statements and representations made by engineers, contractors, suppliers, and workers on Federalaid highway projects, it is essential that all persons concerned with the project perform their functions as carefully, thoroughly, and honestly as possible. Willful falsification, distortion, or misrepresentation with respect to any facts related to the project is a violation of Federal law. To prevent any
misunderstanding regarding the seriousness of these and similar acts, Form FHWA-1022 shall be posted on each
Federal-aid highway project (23 CFR Part 635) in one or more places where it is readily available to all persons concerned with the project:
18 U.S.C. 1020 reads as follows:
"Whoever, being an officer, agent, or employee of the United States, or of any State or Territory, or whoever, whether a person, association, firm, or corporation, knowingly makes any false statement, false representation, or false report as to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of the material used or to be used, or the quantity or quality of the work performed or to be performed, or the cost thereof in connection with the submission of plans, maps, specifications, contracts, or costs of construction on any highway or related project submitted for approval to the Secretary of Transportation; or
Whoever knowingly makes any false statement, false
representation, false report or false claim with respect to the character, quality, quantity, or cost of any work performed or to be performed, or materials furnished or to be furnished, in connection with the construction of any highway or related project approved by the Secretary of Transportation; or Whoever knowingly makes any false statement or false
representation as to material fact in any statement, certificate, or report submitted pursuant to provisions of the Federal-aid Roads Act approved July 11, 1916, (39 Stat. 355), as
amended and supplemented;
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5 years or both."
159
11 IX. IMPLEMENTATION OF CLEAN AIR ACT AND FEDERAL
WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT (42 U.S.C. 7606; 2
CFR 200.88; EO 11738)
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts in excess of $150,000 and to all related
subcontracts. 48 CFR 2.101; 2 CFR 200.327.

By submission of this bid/proposal or the execution of this contract or subcontract, as appropriate, the bidder, proposer, Federal-aid construction contractor, subcontractor, supplier, or vendor agrees to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251-1387). Violations must be reported to the Federal Highway Administration and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency. 2 CFR Part 200, Appendix II.

The contractor agrees to include or cause to be included the requirements of this Section in every subcontract, and further agrees to take such action as the contracting agency may direct as a means of enforcing such requirements. 2 CFR 200.327.

X. CERTIFICATION REGARDING DEBARMENT,

SUSPENSION, INELIGIBILITY AND VOLUNTARY

EXCLUSION
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts, design-build contracts, subcontracts, lower-tier subcontracts, purchase orders, lease agreements, consultant contracts or any other covered transaction requiring FHWA approval or that is estimated to cost $25,000 or more – as defined in 2 CFR Parts 180 and 1200. 2 CFR 180.220 and
1200.220.

1. Instructions for Certification – First Tier Participants:

a. By signing and submitting this proposal, the prospective first tier participant is providing the certification set out below. b. The inability of a person to provide the certification set out below will not necessarily result in denial of participation in this covered transaction. The prospective first tier participant shall submit an explanation of why it cannot provide the certification set out below. The certification or explanation will be considered in connection with the department or agency's determination whether to enter into this transaction. However, failure of the prospective first tier participant to furnish a certification or an explanation shall disqualify such a person from participation in this transaction. 2 CFR 180.320.
c. The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when the contracting agency determined to enter into this transaction. If it is later determined that the prospective participant knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the contracting agency may terminate this transaction for cause of default. 2 CFR 180.325.
d. The prospective first tier participant shall provide immediate written notice to the contracting agency to whom this proposal is submitted if any time the prospective first tier participant learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed
circumstances. 2 CFR 180.345 and 180.350.

suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction, unless authorized by the department or agency entering into this transaction. 2 CFR 180.330.
g. The prospective first tier participant further agrees by submitting this proposal that it will include the clause titled "Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion-Lower Tier Covered Transactions," provided by the department or contracting agency, entering into this covered transaction, without modification, in all lower tier covered transactions and in all solicitations for lower tier covered transactions exceeding the $25,000 threshold. 2 CFR 180.220 and 180.300.
h. A participant in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. 2 CFR 180.300; 180.320, and 180.325. A participant is responsible for
ensuring that its principals are not suspended, debarred, or otherwise ineligible to participate in covered transactions. 2 CFR 180.335.

Administration, Washington, DC 20590. (MARAD requires
copies of the ocean carrier's (master) bills of lading, certified onboard, dated, with rates and charges. These bills of lading may contain business sensitive information and therefore may be submitted directly to MARAD by the Ocean Transportation Intermediary on behalf of the contractor). 46 CFR 381.7. 162

3. The contractor shall give full consideration to all qualified job applicants referred to him by the State Employment
Service. The contractor is not required to grant employment to any job applicants who, in his opinion, are not qualified to perform the classification of work required.

4. If, within one week following the placing of a job order by the contractor with the State Employment Service, the State Employment Service is unable to refer any qualified job applicants to the contractor, or less than the number
requested, the State Employment Service will forward a
certificate to the contractor indicating the unavailability of applicants. Such certificate shall be made a part of the contractor's permanent project records.

a. Compliance with Regulations: CONTRACTOR shall comply with the regulations relative to nondiscrimination in federally assisted programs of the Department of Transportation, Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 21, as they may be amended from time to time, (hereinafter referred to as the REGULATIONS), which are herein incorporated by reference and made a part of this agreement.
b. Nondiscrimination: CONTRACTOR, with regard to the work performed by it during the AGREEMENT, shall not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, sex, national origin, religion, age, or disability in the selection and retention of sub-applicants, including procurements of materials and leases of equipment. CONTRACTOR shall not participate either directly or indirectly in the discrimination prohibited by Section 21.5 of the Regulations, including employment practices when the agreement covers a program set forth in Appendix B of the Regulations.
c. Solicitations for Sub-agreements, Including Procurements of Materials and Equipment: In all solicitations either by competitive bidding or negotiation made by CONTRACTOR for work to be performed under a Sub-agreement, including procurements of materials or leases of equipment, each potential sub-applicant or supplier shall be notified by CONTRACTOR of the CONTRACTOR’S obligations under this Agreement and the Regulations relative to nondiscrimination on the grounds of race, color, or national origin. 166
6 d. Information and Reports: CONTRACTOR shall provide all information and reports required by the Regulations, or directives issued pursuant thereto, and shall permit access to its books, records, accounts, other sources of information, and its facilities as may be determined by the California Department of Transportation or FHWA to be pertinent to ascertain compliance with such Regulations or directives. Where any information required of CONTRACTOR is in the exclusive possession of another who fails or refuses to furnish this information, CONTRACTOR shall so certify to the California Department of Transportation or the FHWA as appropriate, and shall set forth what efforts CONTRACTOR has made to obtain the information.
e. Sanctions for Noncompliance: In the event of CONTRACTOR’s noncompliance with the nondiscrimination provisions of this agreement, the California Department of Transportation shall impose such agreement sanctions as it or the FHWA may determine to be appropriate, including, but not limited to:

13. USE OF UNITED STATES-FLAG VESSELS (CARGO PREFERENCE ACT) The CONTRACTOR agrees1. To utilize privately owned United States-flag commercial vessels to ship at least 50 percent of the gross tonnage (computed separately for dry bulk carries, dry cargo liners, and tankers) involved, whenever shipping any equipment, material, or commodities pursuant to this contract, to the extent such vessels are available at fair and reasonable rates for United States-flag commercial vessels.

2. To Furnish within 20 days following the date of loading for shipments originating within the United State or within 30 working days following the date of loading for shipments originating outside the United States, a legible copy of a rated “on-board” commercial ocean bill-oflading in English for each shipment of cargo described in paragraph (1) of this section to both the Contracting Officer (through the prime contractor in the case of subcontractor billsof-lading) and to the Division of National Cargo, Office of Market Development, Maritime Administration, Washington, DC 20590.

3. To insert the substance of the provisions of this clause in all subcontracts issued pursuant to this contract.

14. FEDERAL TRAINEE PROGRAM
For the Federal training program, the number of trainees or apprentices is five (5).

This section applies if a number of trainees or apprentices is specified in the special provisions.

As part of the prime contractor’s equal opportunity affirmative action program, provide on-the-job training to develop full journeymen in the types of trades or job classifications involved. 167
7 The prime contractor has primary responsibility for meeting this training requirement.

If the prime contractor subcontracts a contract part, they shall determine how many trainees or apprentices are to be trained by the subcontractor. Include these training requirements in each subcontract.

Where feasible, 25 percent of apprentices or trainees in each occupation must be in their 1st year of apprenticeship or training.

Distribute the number of apprentices or trainees among the work classifications on the basis of the prime contractor’s needs and the availability of journeymen in the various classifications within a reasonable recruitment area.

Before starting work, the prime contractor shall submit to the City/County of West Sacramento:

1. Number of apprentices or trainees to be trained for each classification

2. Training program to be used

3. Training starting date for each classification
The prime contractor shall obtain the City/County of West Sacramento approval for this submitted information before the prime contractor starts work. The City/County of West Sacramento credits the prime contractor for each apprentice or trainee the prime contractor employs on the job who is currently enrolled or becomes enrolled in an approved program.

The primary objective of this section is to train and upgrade minorities and women toward journeyman status. The prime contractor shall make every effort to enroll minority and women apprentices or trainees, such as conducting systematic and direct recruitment through public and private sources likely to yield minority and women apprentices or trainees, to the extent they are available within a reasonable recruitment area and show that they have made the efforts. In making these efforts, the prime contractor shall not discriminate against any applicant for training.

The prime contractor shall not employ as an apprentice or trainee an employee:

1. In any classification in which the employee has successfully completed a training course leading to journeyman status or in which the employee has been employed as a journeyman

2. Who is not registered in a program approved by the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training
The prime contractor shall ask the employee if the employee has successfully completed a training course leading to journeyman status or has been employed as a journeyman. The prime contractor’s records must show the employee's answers to the questions.

In the training program, the prime contractor shall establish the minimum length and training type for each classification. The City/County of West Sacramento and FHWA approves a program if one of the following is met:

1. It is calculated to:
• Meet the your equal employment opportunity responsibilities • Qualify the average apprentice or trainee for journeyman status in the classification involved by the end of the training period

2. It is registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, and it is administered in a way consistent with the equal employment responsibilities of Federal-aid highway construction contracts
The prime contractor shall obtain the State's approval for their training program before they start work involving the classification covered by the program.

The prime contractor shall provide training in the construction crafts, not in clerk-typist or secretarialtype positions. Training is allowed in lower level management positions such as office engineers, 168
8 estimators, and timekeepers if the training is oriented toward construction applications. Training is allowed in the laborer classification if significant and meaningful training is provided and approved by the division office. Off-site training is allowed if the training is an integral part of an approved training program and does not make up a significant part of the overall training.

The City/County of West Sacramento reimburses the prime contractor 80 cents per hour of training given an employee on this contract under an approved training program:

1. For on-site training

2. For off-site training if the apprentice or trainee is currently employed on a Federal-aid project and prime contractor does at least one of the following:
a. Contribute to the cost of the training
b. Provide the instruction to the apprentice or trainee c. Pay the apprentice's or trainee's wages during the off-site training period

3. If the prime contractor complies with this section.

Each apprentice or trainee must:

1. Begin training on the project as soon as feasible after the start of work involving the apprentice's or trainee's skill

2. Remain on the project as long as training opportunities exist in the apprentice's or trainee's work classification or until the apprentice or trainee has completed the training program The prime contractor shall furnish the apprentice or trainee with a copy of the program that the prime contractor will comply with in providing the training

================================================================ Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.

Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.
212
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).
---------------------------------------------------------------- The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of ""identifiers"" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).

Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than ""SU"" or ""UAVG"" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this
classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.

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

Survey Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the ""SU"" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average
calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

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

Union Average Rate Identifiers
Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those
classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010
08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union 213 average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

State Adopted Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the ""SA"" identifier indicate that the prevailing wage rate set by a state (or local) government was adopted under 29 C.F.R �1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007 01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted. ME refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the state completed the survey on which the listed classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 01/03/2024 reflects the date on which the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took effect under state law in the state from which the rates were adopted.
----------------------------------------------------------------

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour National Office because National Office has responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.

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

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

Washington, DC 20210

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

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

Washington, DC 20210
The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the 214 interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

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

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

Washington, DC 20210

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final. ================================================================ END OF GENERAL DECISION"

SECTION 2

SCOPE OF WORK

2.01. INTENT OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The intent of the Contract Documents is to prescribe the details for the construction and completion of the Work, which the Contractor undertakes to perform in accordance with the terms of the Contract. These General Conditions are meant to replace Division I of the State Standard Specifications for all City public works contracts which incorporate these General Conditions by reference.

Where the Specifications and Plans describe portions of the Work in general terms, but not in complete detail, it is understood that only the best general practice is to prevail and that only materials and workmanship of the first quality are to be used. Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment and incidentals and do all the Work involved in performing the Contract in a satisfactory and workmanlike manner.

The technical provisions are presented in sections for convenience. However, this presentation does not necessarily delineate trades or limits of responsibility. All sections of the Specifications and Plans are interdependent and applicable to the Project as a whole.

The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is called for in any one shall be as binding as if called for in all. Anything shown on the Drawings and not mentioned in the Specifications or mentioned in the Specifications and not shown on the Drawings shall have the same effect as if shown or mentioned respectively in both. Any work shown on one Drawing shall be construed to be shown in all Drawings and the Contractor will coordinate the Work and the Drawings.

If any portion of the Contract Documents shall be in conflict with any other portion, the various documents comprising the Contract Documents shall govern in the following order of precedence: Change Orders; Addenda; Shop Drawings, Drawings, Supplementary and Special Conditions; Designation of Subcontractors; Construction Contract; General Conditions; City of West Sacramento Standard Specifications; State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Standard Specifications 2015.

Detail Drawings take precedence over General Drawings. As between schedules and other information given on Drawings, the Schedules shall govern. If an item is shown on any Drawing and not specifically included in Technical Specifications specific to this project, the Drawing shall govern. Any conflict or inconsistency between or in the drawings shall be submitted to the Engineer for clarification as soon as the Contractor becomes aware of such inconsistency.

2.02. CONTRACTOR’S UNDERSTANDING
It is understood and agreed that the Contractor has, by careful examination, satisfied itself as to the nature and location of the Work, the conformation of the ground, the character, quality and quantity of the materials to be encountered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the Work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the Work under this Contract. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent or employee of the City, either before or after 222
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
the execution of this Contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations contained herein.

2.03. CHANGES IN THE WORK
(a) The City may, at any time, by written order, make changes in the Work as deemed necessary by the Engineer. Such changes include, but are not limited to:
(1) In the Specifications or Plans;
(2) In the sequence, method or manner of performance of the Work; (3) In the owner-furnished facilities, equipment, materials, services or site; and (4) Directing acceleration of the Work.
(b) If such changes cause an increase or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of the Contract, an equitable adjustment will be made and the Contract modified in writing accordingly.
(1) Change Orders
A change pursuant to this section will be in the form of a Change Order, which will set forth the work to be done or the method by which the change and cost adjustment, if any, will be determined, and the time of completion of the work.

Upon receipt of a Change Order, the Contractor shall proceed with the ordered work. If ordered in writing by the Engineer, the Contractor shall proceed with the work so ordered prior to actual receipt of a Change Order. A Change Order executed by the Contractor and approved by the Engineer is an executed Change Order as that term is used throughout this section.
(2) Change Order Protests
A Change Order may be issued to the Contractor at any time. Should the Contractor disagree with any terms or conditions set forth in a Change Order, which he has not executed, he shall submit a written protest to the Engineer within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such Change Order. The protest shall state the points of disagreement and, if possible, the quantities and cost involved.

If a written protest is not submitted, payment will be made as set forth in the Change Order. Such payment shall constitute full compensation for all work included therein or required thereby. Such unprotested Change Orders shall be considered as executed Change Orders.

Where the protest concerning a Change Order relates to compensation, the compensation payable for all work specified or required by said Change Order to which such protest relates will be determined in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 of this section. The Contractor shall keep full and complete records of the cost of such work and shall permit the Engineer to have such access thereto as may be necessary to assist in the determination of the compensation payable for such work. Where the protest concerning a 223
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
Change Order relates to the adjustment of time and for completion of the Work, the time to be allowed therefor will be determined as provided in this section.

The consent of the Contractor’s sureties shall not be required as to any change or Extra Work, and the liability of the Contractor’s Bonds shall be increased or decreased accordingly without notice to the sureties.

2.04. PROCEDURES AND ALLOWABLE COSTS ON CHANGES AND ADDITIONS TO WORK
(a) Forms of Payment
If the change in, or addition to, the Work will result in an increase in the contract sum, the City shall have the right to require the performance thereof. The compensation to be paid for any such work shall, in the City’s sole discretion, be determined in one or more of the following ways:
(1) By extension of agreed unit prices, if unit prices are required by the City’s Bid form and provided with Contractor ‘s bid;
(2) By revision of unit prices;
(3) By proposal and Acceptance of an agreed upon lump sum; and (4) On a force account basis.

Until one of the above methods is agreed on, or if the Work is to be paid for on a time and materials basis, the Contractor shall keep full and complete records of the cost of such work in the form and manner prescribed by the Engineer and shall permit the Engineer to have access to such records as may be necessary to assist in the determination of the compensation payable for such work.
(b) Lump Sum Payment
The City, in its sole and absolute discretion, may request a lump sum proposal by Contractor to perform the change in, or addition to, the Work performed. Such lump sum proposal shall be submitted by the Contractor within ten (10) days of the City’s request therefor.

Request for a lump sum proposal by City shall not be deemed an election by City to have the Work performed on a lump sum basis. Costs of preparing the proposal shall not be compensable.
(1) Contents of Lump Sum Proposal
(2) The Contractor’s proposal shall be itemized and segregated by labor and materials for the various components of the change (no aggregate labor total will be acceptable). The proposal shall be accompanied by signed proposals of any Subcontractors, which will perform any portion of the change, and of any persons who will furnish materials or equipment for incorporation therein. The proposal shall also include the Contractor’s estimate of the time required to perform said changes or additional work. (3) Computation of Labor Costs
224
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
The portion of the proposal relating to labor, whether by the Contractor’s forces or the forces of any of its Subcontractors, may include the projected wages of the reasonably anticipated Site labor, including foremen, who will be directly involved in the change in the Work.

These projected wages shall not include charges for assistant superintendents, superintendents, office personnel, timekeepers and maintenance mechanics.

Labor costs may also include Contractor’s overhead and profit which shall be computed by adding to the labor costs either up to fifteen percent (15%) of the projected wages, but not payroll costs, or the labor surcharge set forth in the California Department of Transportation publication entitled Labor Surcharge And Equipment Rental Rates, which is in effect on the date upon which the Work is accomplished and which is a part of the Contract. The method of computing the overhead and profit shall be solely within the discretion of the City.

The labor surcharge, if used, shall constitute full compensation for all payments imposed by State and Federal laws and for all other payments made to, or on behalf of, the workmen, other than actual wages as defined above. No time or charges will be allowed except when the workers are actually engaged in the proper, efficient and diligent performance or completion of the extra work as authorized. Overtime shall not be worked without prior approval of the Engineer.
(4) Computation of Equipment and Materials Costs
The portion of the proposal relating to materials may include the reasonably anticipated direct costs to the Contractor or to any of its Subcontractors of materials to be purchased for incorporation in the change in the Work. This portion of the proposal may also include transportation and applicable sales or use taxes. Up to fifteen percent (15%) of these direct costs may be included as overhead and profit for the Contractor or any such Subcontractor (such overhead and profit to include all small tools).

This portion of the proposal may further include the Contractor’s and any of its Subcontractors’ reasonably anticipated costs for the rental and operation of prime construction and automotive equipment furnished and used in connection with the change in the Work. The equipment rental and operation rates used shall be the latest edition of the Department of Transportation, Division of Construction, Equipment Rental Rates. These costs shall not include charges for listed equipment or major tools with a new cost of five hundred dollars ($500.00) or less. No time charges shall be allowed except for equipment actually used for the proper and efficient performance or completion of the authorized change in the Work. (5) Subcontractors
The lump sum proposal may include up to five percent (5%) of the amount, which the Contractor will pay to any of its Subcontractors for the change in the Work as allowable overhead and profit to the Contractor.
(6) Failure to Submit Lump Sum Proposal
In the event that the Contractor fails to submit its proposal within the designated period, the Engineer may direct the Contractor to proceed with the change or addition to the Work and the Contractor shall so proceed. The Engineer shall unilaterally determine the reasonable costs and time to perform the work in question, which determination shall be final and binding upon the Contractor.
225
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
(7) Failure to Agree on Lump Sum Amount
In the event that the parties are unable to agree as to the reasonable costs and time to perform the change in or addition to the Work based upon the Contractor’s proposal and the Engineer and City do not elect to have the change in the Work performed on a time and material basis, the Engineer and City shall make a unilateral determination of the reasonable cost and time to perform the change in the Work, based upon their own estimates, the Contractor’s submission or combination thereof. In such instances, a Change Order shall be issued for the amount of costs and time determined by the Engineer and the City and shall become binding upon the Contractor unless the Contractor submits its protest in writing to the City within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the Change Order. The City has the right to direct the Contractor in writing to perform the change in the Work, which is the subject of the Change Order. Failure of the parties to reach agreement regarding the costs and time of performing the change in the Work and/or any pending protest shall not relieve the Contractor from performing the change in the Work promptly and expeditiously.
(c) Payment by Unit Prices
If any of the items included in the lump sum proposal are covered by unit prices contained in the contract document, the City may, if it requires the change in the Work to be performed on a lump sum basis, elect to use these unit prices in lieu of the similar items included in the lump sum proposal in which event an appropriate deduction will be made in the lump sum amount prior to the application of any allowed overhead and profit percentages. No overhead and profit shall be applied to any unit prices. (d) Payment on a Force Account Basis
If the City elects to have the change or addition to the Work performed on a force account basis, the Work shall be performed, whether by the Contractor’s forces or the forces of any of its Subcontractors or Sub-Subcontractors, and payment shall be made subject to the following provision. The Contractor will be paid the direct costs of the labor, equipment and materials used in performing the force account work determined as hereinafter provided. (1) For labor, the Contractor will be paid the cost of labor for the workers (including foremen when authorized by the Engineer or Project Manager) used in the actual and direct performance of the work. The cost of labor, whether the employer is the Contractor or any or any Subcontractor of any tier, shall be actual wages, including basic hourly wage, health and welfare payments and pension payments incurred in performing the force account work, plus any travel and subsistence payments for the workers performing such work and made necessary thereby. To the actual wages shall be added a labor surcharge as set forth in the State Department of Transportation publication entitled “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates”, as in effect on the date the work is performed. The labor surcharge shall be deemed to encompass the City’s entire liability to reimburse the Contractor for workers compensation insurance payments, social security payments, Medicare payments, federal unemployment insurance payments, state unemployment insurance payments and state training taxes, made necessary by the force account work.
(2) For equipment, the Contractor will be paid for the use of equipment at the rental rates listed for that equipment in the State Department of Transportation publication entitled “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates”, which is in effect on the date the work is performed, regardless of ownership or any rental agreement entered into by Contractor for such equipment. The rental rate paid in accord with said publication shall be deemed to include 226

Updated 2/17/23
the cost of fuel, oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, attachments, repairs and maintenance, depreciation, storage and insurance for said equipment. Rental time will not be paid when equipment is inoperable due to breakdowns, repairs or maintenance. Payment for loading, transporting and unloading time will be in accordance with the State Standard Specifications applicable to loading, transporting and unloading equipment for force account work, as applicable as of the date the equipment is loaded, transported or unloaded. (3) For materials used in the work, the City will pay for materials furnished by the Contractor and necessarily used in the force account work. Prior to markups as set forth below, the amount paid shall be the price paid by the actual purchaser to the actual supplier plus any necessary actual costs of handling the materials.

Contractor may add fifteen percent (15%) to the total labor, equipment and material charges as the total overhead and profit to the entity or entities actually performing the force account work. If the entity or entities actually performing the work are Subcontractors or Sub-Subcontractors, the Contractor shall be allowed five percent (5%) of the total charge of the performing entity or entities (including mark- up) as Contractor’s mark-up. No other mark-ups shall be allowed hereunder.

The Contractor shall submit to the City daily work and material tickets, to include the identification number assigned to the change in the Work, the location and description of the change in the Work, the classification of labor employed (and names and social security numbers), hours expended, the material used, the equipment rented (not tools) and such other evidence of cost as the City may require. The City may require authentication of all time and material tickets and invoices by persons designated by the City for such purpose. The failure of the Contractor to secure any required authentication shall, if the City elects to treat it as such, constitute a waiver by the Contractor of any claim for the cost of that portion of the Change in the Work covered by a non-authenticated ticket or invoice; provided, however, that the authentication of any such ticket or invoice by the City shall not constitute an acknowledgment by the City that the items thereon were reasonably required for the Change in the Work. (e) Limitations on Changes
The Contractor shall not be entitled to any amount for indirect costs, damages or expenses of any nature, including, but not limited to, so-called “impact” costs, labor inefficiency, wage, material or other escalations beyond the prices upon which the proposal is based and to which the parties have agreed pursuant to the provisions of this section, and which the Contractor, its Subcontractors and Sub-Subcontractors or any other person may incur as a result of delays, interferences, suspensions, changes in sequence or the like, for whatever cause, whether reasonable or unreasonable, foreseeable or unforeseeable, or avoidable or unavoidable, arising from the performance of any and all changes in the work performed pursuant to this section. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedy in such event shall be recovery of its direct costs as compensable hereunder and an extension of the time of the Contract, but only in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents.

It is expressly agreed that Contractor shall not be entitled to claim damages for anticipated profits on any portion of the Work that may be deleted.

The amount of any adjustment for work deleted shall be estimated at the time deletion of work is ordered and the estimated adjustment will be deducted for the subsequent monthly pay estimates. The City reserves its rights under Section 3.20 to audit Contractor’s as-Bid profit in 227

connection with any deductive change, to arrive at a final adjustment. Contractor’s as-Bid profit shall be reduced pro rata according to the proportion of the original contract value less as-Bid profit, represented by the work deleted.

The City reserves the right to contract with any person or firm other than the Contractor for any or all Extra Work.

2.05. UNILATERAL CHANGE IN OR ADDITION TO THE WORK
Notwithstanding the above, the City, directly or through the Engineer, may direct the Contractor in writing to perform changes in or additions to the scope of the Contract. The Contractor shall perform such work and the parties shall proceed pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04.

2.06. DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS
The Contractor shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify the City in writing of any:
(a) Material that the Contractor believes may be material that is hazardous waste, as defined in Section 25110.02 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law; or (b) Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the Site differing from those indicated in the Contract Documents; or
(c) Unknown conditions at the Site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract.

The Engineer shall thereupon promptly investigate the conditions. If the Engineer finds that they do involve hazardous waste, or do materially differ and cause an decrease or increase in the Contractor’s cost or time of performance, the Engineer will issue a change order as appropriate. Any increase or decrease of cost resulting from such changes shall be adjusted in the manner provided in Section 2.04 for adjustments as to extra and/or additional work and changes. In the event that a dispute arises between the City and the Contractor, whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause and decrease or increase the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, the Contractor shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided by the Contract, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under the Contract, the procedures applicable to claims for extra costs shall then apply.

2.07. CLAIMS FOR EXTRA COSTS
(a) Notice of Potential Claims
(1) It is hereby mutually agreed that 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 provides the Engineer with written notice of the potential claims as hereinafter specified.

Compliance with this section, however, shall not be a prerequisite as to matters within the scope of the protest provisions in Section 2.03.

The notice as above required shall be given to the Engineer prior to the time that the Contractor commences performance of 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 ten (10) days after the happening of the event, thing or occurrence giving rise to the potential claim. (b) Construction Dispute
(1) The Contractor may submit a dispute to the Engineer concerning any matter for which a protest under Section 2.03, or a notice of potential claim, is filed. Such disputes, or potential claims, shall be submitted to the Engineer within sixty (60) days following the submission of said protest or notice, unless, due to the nature of the dispute or the uncompleted state of the Work, it is impracticable to determine the amount or the extent of the claim within such period. In such cases, disputes shall be submitted at the earliest practicable time in which such a determination can be made. In any event, all disputes shall be filed on or before the date of the final release by the Contractor as provided for in Section 7.09. (2) All disputes shall be in writing and shall set forth clearly and in detail, for each item of additional compensation requested, the reasons for the dispute, reference to applicable provisions of the Specifications, the nature and the amount of the cost involved, the computations used in determining such costs, all pertinent factual data and all the documents necessary to substantiate the dispute.

(c) Resolution of Construction Claims
(1) To the extent that the Contractor disputes the Engineer’s Written Decision issued pursuant to Section 4.07(b)(2), or to the extent the Engineer fails to issue a timely written decision, the Contractor may file a written claim, as defined by Public Contract Code section 9204(c)(1), with the City including reasonable documentation to support the claim. Upon receipt of the claim, the City shall conduct a reasonable review of the claim, and within a period not to exceed 45 days, the City shall provide the Contractor with a written statement identifying what portion of the claim is disputed and what portion is undisputed. The time in which the City must provide a written statement may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties as specified by Public Contract Code section 9204(d)(1)(C). The City shall pay any undisputed portion of the claim within 60 days after issuance of its written statement.

SECTION 3

CONTROL OF WORK

3.01. AUTHORITY OF ENGINEER
(a) The Engineer is the representative of the City and has full authority to interpret the Contract Documents, to conduct the construction review and inspection of the Contractor’s performance, and to decide questions, which arise during the course of the Work and the Engineer’s decisions on these matters, shall be final and conclusive. The Engineer has the authority to reject all work and materials, which do not conform to the Contract Documents, and has the authority to stop the Work whenever such stoppage may be necessary to insure the proper execution of the Contract. The Engineer’s failure to stop the Work shall not obligate the City to accept defective or otherwise unacceptable work or otherwise affect the Engineer’s or City’s authority to reject work for any reason set forth in the Contract Documents. (b) If at any time the Contractor’s work force, tools, plant or equipment appear to the Engineer to be insufficient or inappropriate to secure the required quality of work or the proper rate of progress, the Engineer may order the Contractor to increase their efficiency, improve their character, to augment their number or to substitute other personnel, new or additional tools, plant or equipment, as the case may be, and the Contractor shall comply with such order.

Neither the failure of the Engineer to demand such increase of efficiency, number, or improvement, nor the compliance by the Contractor with the demand, shall relieve the Contractor of its obligation to provide quality work at the rate of progress necessary to complete the Work within the specified time.
(c) The Engineer may authorize minor variations in the work from the requirements of the Contract Documents which do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Time. These may be accomplished by a Field Order. Contractor shall comply promptly with all Field Orders. If the Engineer and Contractor are unable to agree on entitlement or on the amount or extent, if any, of any adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract time, or cost, as a result of a Field Order, a claim may be made therefor pursuant to Section 2.07. (d) Any order given by the Engineer, not otherwise required by the Contract Documents to be in writing shall, on request of the Contractor, be given or confirmed by the Engineer in writing.
(e) Whenever work, methods of procedure, or any other matters are made subject to direction or approval, such direction or approval will be given by the Engineer.

3.02. DRAWINGS
(a) Drawings furnished herewith are for bidding purposes. The Engineer will furnish the Contractor, free of charge, copies of full size Drawings which are reasonably necessary for the execution of the Work. The Contractor shall have no claim for excusable delay on account of the failure of the Engineer to deliver such Drawings, unless the Engineer shall have failed to deliver the same within two weeks after receipt of written demand therefore from the Contractor.

The Contractor shall keep one copy of said Drawings, in good order, available to the Engineer and the Engineer’s representatives, and convenient to the working site. (b) If the Contractor, in the course of the Work, finds any discrepancy between the Drawings and the physical condition of the locality, or any errors or omissions in the Drawings, 233
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
or in the layout as given by points and instructions, it shall be the Contractor’s duty to inform the Engineer in writing, and the Engineer will promptly verify the same.

Any work done after such discovery, until authorized, will be done at the Contractor’s risk. All Drawings, Specifications, and copies thereof furnished by the Engineer are the property of the Engineer and shall not be reused on other work and, with the exception of the signed Contract sets, are to be returned to the Engineer, on request, at the completion of the Work. All models are the property of the City.
(c) The Drawings shall be supplemented by such Shop Drawings prepared by the fabricator and/or supplier and Working Drawings prepared by the Contractor as are necessary to adequately control the Work. No changes shall be made by the Contractor in any Shop or Working Drawings after they have been reviewed by the Engineer, if the Engineer deems that no further submittals are necessary. The Contractor shall not commence the layout, purchase, fabrication, or construction of any work for which Shop or Working Drawings are required until Engineer has reviewed the specifications and drawings and has indicated in writing no further submittals are required for compliance with the Contract Documents. (d) Shop and Working Drawings for any structure shall include, but not be limited to, detail design calculations, fabrication and installation drawings, lists, graphs, operating instructions, etc., which shall be reviewed and accepted by the Engineer before any such work is performed.
(e) Shop and Working Drawings will be required for cribs, cofferdams, falsework, centering and form work and for other temporary work and methods of construction the Contractor proposes to use. Such Drawings shall be subject to the review and Acceptance of the Engineer insofar as the details affect the character of the finished work, but details of design will be left to the Contractor who shall be responsible for the successful construction of the Work.
(f) Contractor agrees that Shop and/or Working Drawings processed by the Engineer are not Change Orders; that the purpose of these Drawings submitted by the Contractor is to demonstrate to the Engineer that the Contractor understands the design concept, that the Contractor demonstrates its understanding by indicating which equipment and material the Contractor intends to furnish and by detailing the fabrication methods it intends to use. It is expressly understood, however, that favorable review of the Contractor’s Shop and Working Drawings shall not relieve the Contractor of any responsibility for accuracy of dimensions and details, or for mutual agreements of dimensions and details. It is mutually agreed that the Contractor shall be responsible for agreement and conformity of its Drawings with the Specifications. Contractor further agrees that if deviations, discrepancies or conflicts between Shop and/or Working Drawings and Specifications are discovered either prior to or after the Drawings are processed by the Engineer, the Specifications shall control and shall be followed.
(g) Unless otherwise stated, the Engineer shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of Shop and/or Working Drawings for review.
(h) Full compensation for furnishing all Shop and/or Working Drawings shall be considered as included in the prices paid for the Contract items of work to which such drawings relate and no additional compensation will be allowed therefore. Any cost related to the Engineer’s review of any particular set of Shop and/or Working Drawings more than twice, due 234

These plans shall include all changes, revisions, etc. from the original plan complete with the exact sizes, locations, dimensions, elevations, etc. These plans shall be kept and maintained in a neat, clean and legible condition and shall be available for inspection at all times by the Engineer. The Contractor shall deliver these completed plans to the Engineer and the Engineer shall approve these plans prior to final Acceptance of the project by the City.

3.03. CONSTRUCTION STAKING AND SURVEYS
The City will provide one set of construction stakes and benchmarks as it deems necessary to establish lines and grades required for the completion of the site work specified in the Contract. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer a minimum of seven (7) days in advance of the time work is to begin on any portion of the project that may require construction staking to be provided by the City. The Contractor shall make all other surveys necessary for the completion of the Work.

Alternatively, the Engineer may provide the Contractor with drawings showing benchmarks and reference points as it deems necessary to establish lines and grades required for the completion of the site work specified in the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall make or furnish all surveys and set all construction stakes necessary for the completion of the work.

Stakes and marks set by the City or Engineer shall be carefully preserved by the Contractor. The Contractor shall be charged for the cost of replacing or restoring the stakes and marks, which are destroyed or damaged by Contractor’s operation. This charge will be deducted from any monies due or to become due to the Contractor under the Contract.

3.04. PERMITS AND REGULATIONS
Permits and licenses, of a temporary nature, necessary for the prosecution of the Work shall be secured and paid for by the Contractor. Permits, licenses and easements for permanent structures or permanent changes in existing facilities shall be secured and paid for by the City unless otherwise specified.

The Contractor shall give all notices and comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations bearing on the conduct of the Work as shown on the plans and described in the Specifications. Contractor shall promptly notify the Engineer in writing of any specification at variance therewith. In such instances, any necessary changes shall be adjusted as provided in the Contract for changes in the Work. If the Contractor performs any Work knowing it to be contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations and without such notice to the Engineer, Contractor shall bear all costs arising therefrom. 235

3.05. CONFORMITY WITH CONTRACT DOCUMENTS AND ALLOWABLE DEVIATIONS Work and materials shall conform to the lines, grades, cross sections, dimensions and material requirements, including tolerances, shown on Contract Documents. Although measurement, sampling, and testing may be considered evidence as to such conformity, the Engineer shall be the sole judge as to whether the Work or materials deviate from the Contract Documents. The Engineer’s decision as to any allowable deviations therefrom shall be final and conclusive.

3.06. COORDINATION AND INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS (a) Should it appear that the Work to be done or any of the matters relative thereto are not sufficiently detailed or explained in the Specifications and Plans, the Contractor shall apply to the Engineer for such further explanations as may be necessary and shall conform to them as part of the Contract. In the event of any doubt or question arising respecting the true meaning of the Specifications and Plans, reference shall be made to the Engineer, whose decision thereon shall be final and conclusive.
(b) Any reference made in the Specifications and Plans to any specification, standard, method, or publication of any scientific or technical society or other organization shall, in the absence of a specific designation to the contrary, be understood to refer to the specification, standard, method, or publication in effect as of the date that the Work is advertised for Bids.

3.07. SUBCONTRACTORS
(a) The attention of the Contractor is directed to the provisions of California Public Contract Code sections 4100-4113 regarding subcontracting and said provisions are by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof.
(b) Each subcontract shall contain a suitable provision for the suspension or termination thereof should the Work be suspended or terminated or should the Subcontractor neglect or fail to conform to every provision of the Contract Documents insofar as such provisions are relevant. The Contractor shall be fully responsible to the City for the acts or omissions of the Contractor’s Subcontractors and of the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the Contractor. Nothing contained in the Contract Documents shall create any contractual relationship between any Subcontractor and the City. If a legal action, including arbitration and litigation, against the City is initiated by a Subcontractor or Supplier, the Contractor shall reimburse the City for the amount of legal, engineering and all other expenses incurred by the City in defending itself in said action. (c) The City and the Engineer reserve the right to approve all Subcontractors.

Such approval shall be a consideration to the awarding of the Contract and unless notification to the contrary is given to the Contractor prior to the signing of the Contract, the list of Subcontractors which is submitted with the Contractor’s proposal will be deemed to be acceptable. Contractor shall not, without the written consent of the City, subcontract the whole of the Work.

(d) The Engineer and the Engineer’s representatives shall at all times have access to the Work wherever it is in preparation or progress, and the Contractor shall provide safe and convenient facilities for such access and for inspection. If the Specifications, the Engineer’s instructions, laws, ordinances, or any public authority require any material, equipment or work to be specifically tested or approved, the Contractor shall give the Engineer timely notice of its readiness for inspection, and if the inspection is by an authority other than the City, of the time fixed for inspection. Inspections by the Engineer will be made promptly and, where practicable, at the source of supply.
(e) Work performed without inspection may be required to be removed and replaced under proper inspection. In such instances, the entire cost of removal and replacing, including the cost of City-furnished materials used in the Work, shall be borne by the Contractor, regardless of whether or not the Work exposed is found to be defective. Examination of questioned work, other than that installed without inspection, may be ordered by the Engineer and, if so ordered, the Work must be uncovered by the Contractor. If such work is found to be in accordance with the Contract Documents, the City will pay the cost of re-examination and replacement. If such work is found to be not in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall pay such cost, unless the Contractor can show that the defect in the Work was caused by another Contractor , and in that event the City will pay such costs. (f) The inspection of the Work shall not relieve the Contractor of the Contractor’s obligation to fulfill the Contract as herein prescribed, or in any way alter the standard of performance provided by the Contractor, and defective work shall be made good and unusable materials may be rejected, notwithstanding that such work and materials have been previously overlooked by the Engineer and accepted or estimated for payment. If the Work or any part thereof shall be found defective, the Contractor shall, within ten (10) calendar days, make good such defect in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer. If the Contractor fails to make ordered repairs of defective work or to remove the condemned materials from the Work within ten (10) calendar days after written direction by the Engineer, the City may make the ordered repairs, or remove the condemned materials, and deduct the cost thereof from any monies due the Contractor.
(g) The Contractor shall furnish promptly, without additional charge, all facilities, labor and materials reasonably needed by the Engineer for performing all inspection and tests.

Contractor shall be charged with any additional cost of inspection when material and workmanship are not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for its inspection. (h) Where any part of the Work is being done under an encroachment permit or building permit, or is subject to federal, state, county or city codes, laws, ordinances, rules or regulations, representatives of the government agency shall have full access to the Work and shall be allowed to make any inspection or tests in accordance with such permits, codes, laws, 238

If samples of materials are submitted which fail to pass the specified tests, the Contractor shall pay for all subsequent tests.

3.12. REMOVAL OF REJECTED AND UNAUTHORIZED WORK AND MATERIALS (a) All work or materials, which have been rejected, shall be remedied, or removed and replaced by the Contractor in an acceptable manner and no compensation shall be allowed the Contractor for such removal, replacement, or remedial work.

(c) Upon failure of the Contractor to comply with any order of the Engineer made under this section, the City may cause rejected or unauthorized work to be remedied, removed, or replaced, and may deduct the costs therefore from any monies due or to become due the Contractor.

3.13. DEDUCTIONS FOR UNCORRECTED WORK

The Contractor’s failure to inspect and report shall constitute an Acceptance of the other Contractor ‘s work as fit and proper for the reception of the Contractor’s work, except as to defects which may develop in the other Contractor ‘s work after the execution of the Contractor’s work.
(c) To insure the proper execution of Contractor’s subsequent work, the Contractor shall measure work already in place and shall at once report to the Engineer any discrepancy between the executed work and the Drawings.

EQUIPMENT OR FACILITIES
(a) The City may, at any time, and from time to time, during the performance of the Work, enter the Work Site for the purpose of installing any necessary work by City labor or other contracts, and for other purpose in connection with the installation of facilities. In doing so, the City shall endeavor not to interfere with the Contractor and the Contractor shall not interfere with other work being done by or on behalf of the City.
(b) If, prior to completion and final Acceptance of all the Work, the City takes possession of any structure or facility (whether completed or otherwise) comprising a portion of the Work with the intent to retain possession thereof (as distinguished from temporary possession contemplating the return to the Contractor), then, while the City is in possession of the same, the Contractor shall be relieved of liability for loss or damage to such structure other than that resulting from the Contractor’s fault or negligence. Such taking of possession by the City shall not relieve the Contractor from any provisions of this Contract regarding such structure, other than to the extent specified in the preceding sentence, nor shall such taking constitute a final Acceptance of such structure or facility. (c) If, following installation of any equipment or facilities furnished by the Contractor, defects requiring correction by the Contractor are found, the City shall have the right to operate such unsatisfactory equipment or facilities and make reasonable use thereof until the equipment or facilities can be shut down for correction of defects without injury to the City.

When the territory of one contract is the necessary or convenient means of access for the performance of another contract, such privilege of access or any other reasonable privilege may be granted by the Engineer to the Contractor so desiring, to the extent, amount, in the manner, and at the time permitted. No such decision as to the method or time of conducting the Work or the use of territory shall be the basis of any claim for delay or damage.

It shall be understood that the words “or approved equivalent” are implied whether or not they follow the proprietary enumeration.

The City reserves the right to determine when proprietary items have no equivalency, and when uniformity of operations, interchangeability of parts, standard parts inventory, etc., are in the City’s best interest.

Requests for review of equivalency will be considered upon submission of sufficient information as described herein, to allow complete review. Such requests shall not be accepted from anyone other than the Contractor. Such submission must be made prior to purchase, fabrication, manufacture or use of the equivalent items under consideration. (a) Contractor’s Risk.

(2) After the Bid opening, the apparent three low bidders shall have seven (7) calendar days to provide complete substantiating data for all product, material or system substitution requests. After this seven (7)-day period, the City may award the Contract to the apparent low bidder. In no event will product, material or system substitution requests submitted after the Award of Contract be considered.

Updated 2/17/23
(3) Each substitution request may include one alternate substitution. All alternate substitutions shall be submitted concurrently with substitution requests. Upon review by the City, proposed substitutions shall be returned to the Bidder marked either “accepted” or “rejected”. The City shall only review alternative substitution requests if the primary substitution request is rejected. If a substitution request, and its alternative, is returned “rejected”, no further substitution requests for that product, material or system will be allowed and the Bidder will provide the specified product, material or system.
(4) If, after all substitution requests have been processed, substitution requests by the apparent low Bidder are rejected by the City, the apparent low Bidder may elect not to execute the Contract. Under no circumstances, will bidders be allowed to alter their Bid Price as originally submitted. This election shall be made in writing no later than five (5) days following the receipt of the reviewed substitution requests. An election by the Bidder not to execute the Contract will result in the forfeiture of the bidder’s Bid bond. If the apparent low Bidder elects not to continue, and the second low Bidder is awarded the Contract, the second low Bidder may then elect not to execute the Contract for the contract price shown on its Bid Form. Subsequent bidders shall have five (5) days following the receipt of the reviewed substitution requests and the Notice of Award in which to make their election. This process shall continue until one Bidder decides to continue with the Award of Contract process. (5) The City may award the Contract at any time after the time for submitting substitution requests expires pursuant to subpart (2), above. In the event the Contract is awarded prior to acceptance/rejection of substitution requests, all outstanding substitution requests shall be reviewed by the City as provided above. If the apparent low Bidder elects not to execute the Contract, the Award of Contract to the apparent low Bidder shall be rescinded and the Contract awarded to the next apparent low bidder. All bidders electing not to execute the Contract expressly agree that the City shall incur no liability for such rescissions. As provided herein, “apparent low bidder” means the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

The Certificate of Compliance shall be signed by the manufacturer of the material or the manufacturer of assembled materials and shall state that the materials involved comply in all respects with the requirements of the Contract. A Certificate of Compliance shall be furnished with each lot of material delivered to the Work and the lot so certified shall be clearly identified in the Certificate.
(b) All materials used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance may be sampled and tested at any time. The fact that material is used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for incorporating material in the Work which conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents and any such material not conforming to such requirements will be subject to rejection whether in place or not. (c) The City reserves the right to refuse to permit the use of material on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance.
(d) The form of the Certificate of Compliance and its disposition shall be as directed by the Engineer.

SECTION 6

PROGRESS AND COMPLETION OF WORK

6.01. PROGRESS SCHEDULE
The Contractor shall submit within ten (10) days after execution of the Contract a detailed work schedule(s) which shall detail the actions of the Contractor and Subcontractors working at the Site. This schedule(s) shall both show the dates at which the Contractor will start and complete and conform to the completion time specified in the Contract. The controlling operation, defined as the least float path, if any, shall be identified.

The Contractor shall review, revise and resubmit the progress schedule at least once a month to reflect progress. In any event, Contractor shall submit, at any time during the contract period, a current schedule to the Engineer at the Engineer’s request.

No progress payments will be made for any work performed until a satisfactory schedule has been submitted and approved by the Engineer. An updated schedule shall be required from the Contractor if the project falls ten (10) working days behind schedule.

If the Work falls behind the accepted schedule, the Contractor shall promptly take whatever actions are necessary to put the project back on schedule. For delays or portions of delays for which the Contractor is responsible, no payment will be made or time extension allowed for increase in work force, equipment, and working hours needed to put the project on schedule.

6.02. COMMENCEMENT AND PROGRESS OF THE WORK AND TIME OF COMPLETION (a) Commencement
The Contractor shall begin the Work after receiving a Notice to Proceed within the period of time set forth in the Contract Provisions. Thereafter, Contractor shall diligently prosecute the Work to completion as specified in the Contract Documents. The Engineer shall have the right to specify the locations where Contractor shall start and proceed with the Work.

A preconstruction conference will be convened after the Contractor has delivered the necessary bonds, insurance certificates and signed agreement in proper form as required in the invitation to bid, Bid proposal and general conditions of these specifications. Prior to any work, the Contractor shall provide the Engineer with a list of key personnel assigned to the project and the telephone numbers where they may be reached at any time. The list shall be made available in sufficient copies and presented at the preconstruction conference.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Contract, the City shall not be obligated to accept or pay for any work furnished by the Contractor prior to the issuance of the Notice to Proceed whether or not the City has knowledge of the furnishing of such work. The Contractor shall not commence with work on this project until its Contract bonds and evidence of insurance comply with all Contract requirements and a Notice to Proceed has been issued.

The Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing two (2) working days (48 hours) prior to commencement of work on the Project or scheduling work for a Saturday, Sunday, or City Holiday. Failure to provide said notification will void the City’s obligation to provide inspection.

(b) Completion
All work under this Contract shall be completed within the period of time set forth in the Contract Provisions. The Contract shall be deemed completed when the Engineer has certified the completion of the Project as provided in Section 9.07 of these General Conditions.

6.03. SUSPENSION OF WORK
(a) The Engineer may at any time, by notice in writing to the Contractor, suspend any part of the Work for such period of time as may be necessary to prevent improper execution of the Work on the project by the Contractor, its Subcontractors or agents, and the Contractor shall have no claim for damages or additional compensation on account of any such suspension.
(b) The City may at any time suspend any part or all of the Work upon ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor, who shall thereupon discontinue all work suspended except for all operations to prevent loss or damage to work already executed as may be directed by the Engineer. Work shall be resumed by the Contractor after such suspension on written notice from the City.
(c) In the event of any suspension of the Work in whole or in part under subsection (B) above, the Contractor shall be entitled to an extension of time wherein to complete the Work to the extent of the delay caused to the Contractor thereby. (d) In the event the entire work shall be suspended by order of the City, as herein above provided, and shall remain so suspended for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days, through no fault of the Contractor, and notice to resume the Work shall not have been served on the Contractor as herein above provided, Contractor may, at its option, by written notice to the City, terminate the Contract in the same manner as if the termination had been initiated by the City, and the City shall have no claim for damages because of such termination of the Contract.

6.04. DELAY IN THE WORK – TIME EXTENSIONS
The Contractor shall at all times employ such force, plant, materials, and tools as will be sufficient, in the opinion of the Engineer, to prosecute the Work at not less than the rates fixed under the terms of the Contract and to complete the Work thereof within the time limits fixed therein. If the Contractor refuses or fails to prosecute the Work, or any separable part thereof, with such diligence as will ensure the completion within the time specified in the Contract, or any extension thereof, or fails to complete said work within such time, the City may exercise the termination provisions set forth in Section 6.05, below. (a) Excusable Delays. Excusable delays shall be delays in the controlling operation of the Contractor’s work due to strikes, lockouts by others, fire, unusual delay in transportation, unavoidable casualties, adverse weather conditions which could not have been reasonably anticipated, or any other act(s) of God beyond the Contractor’s control, or by delay authorized by the City, or by any cause which the City shall decide to justify the delay. Except as provided in Section 6.04(f), below, in the event of an excusable delay, the time of completion shall be extended for such reasonable time as the City may decide. The Contractor’s right to an extension of time for an excusable delay is expressly subject to Contractor’s giving written notice of such claim within ten (10) days following the date the Contractor knew or should have known of the delay. Failure to give such notice shall be construed as a waiver of such right. It is 264
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
understood and agreed that extensions of time shall be the Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedy for excusable delays.
(b) Compensable delays. Compensable delays shall be delays in the controlling operating of the Contractor’s work due to acts or neglect of the City, its employees or those under it by contract or otherwise, or by changes ordered in the work. In the event of a compensable delay, the time of completion shall be extended for such reasonable time as the City may decide. In addition, the Contractor may recover its direct costs as provided in Section

6.05. The Contractor’s remedies for compensable delays are expressly subject to Contractor’s giving ten (10) days written notice of such claim from the date the Contractor knew or should have known of the delay. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedies for compensable delays shall be an extension of the time and recovery of its direct costs as compensable hereunder, but only in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents.
(c) Contractor and City understand and agree that the Contract time for the completion of this project is a very important part of the contract. Extensions of time will only be granted as provided above when events actually cause the Contractor to be delayed in the performance of that schedule activity which is the controlling operation as of the time of the delay. When acts or omissions occur which could cause delay, Contractor will take all reasonable means in order to be able to continue to work as scheduled without any delay, or as short a delay as possible. Additionally, if inclement weather causes accumulation of standing water on the work site or other conditions which might cause delay, Contractor shall take all measures reasonably necessary to permit work to continue as quickly as possible. (d) If adverse weather conditions are the basis for a claim for additional time, such claim shall be documented by date substantiating that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time and could not have been reasonably anticipated, and that weather conditions had an adverse effect on the scheduled construction. Adverse weather conditions shall be considered only as those conditions that exceed the average annual number of rain days and rain quantities as established by the Annual Local Climatological Summary and NOAA National Technical Memorandum NWS WR-65 (Revised) as published by the United States Government, National Weather Service, National Climate Center, Asheville, North Carolina. (e) The Engineer shall be responsible for determining when adverse weather conditions result in non-workable days. It shall be the Contractor’s duty to stay informed of such determinations by the Engineer. The Contractor may object to such adverse weather determinations by filing with the Engineer a written notice of objection. The notice of objection shall state the basis of the objection and provide supporting documentation, which substantiates that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time and could not have been reasonably anticipated, and that weather conditions had an adverse effect on the scheduled construction. All such notices of objection shall be filed within three (3) days of the day in dispute. It is hereby agreed that the Contractor’s failure to submit a written notice of objection within three (3) days of the Engineer’s adverse weather determination shall constitute a waiver by the Contractor of all its rights to further protest, judicial or otherwise. (f) The Engineer will, within a reasonable period of time, issue a ruling on the Contractor’s notice of objection. All such rulings by the Engineer shall be final, unless the Contractor files a written protest within fifteen (15) days of the Engineer’s ruling. This protest shall clearly state the basis of the dispute. Such protest will be forwarded promptly to the City, which will issue a decision on each such protest. The City decision will be final. Pending the City decision, the Contractor shall proceed with its work in accordance with the Engineer’s ruling 265
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
and/or instructions. It is hereby agreed that the Contractor’s failure to file a protest within fifteen days (15) of the Engineer’s ruling shall constitute a waiver by the Contractor of all its rights to further protest, judicial or otherwise.
(g) The number of days that are anticipated to be non-workable due to adverse weather conditions shall be as set forth in Section 4.0 of the Special Conditions. Days deemed non-workable by the Engineer in excess of such anticipated number shall be considered excusable delays.
(h) Unexcused delays shall be delays in the Contractor’s work due to acts or neglect of the Contractor, its employees, Subcontractors or those under it by contract or otherwise. In the event of an unexcused delay, the Contractor expressly agrees that it shall not be entitled to either an extension of time or recovery of its costs.
(i) A request for an extension of time, or the granting of an extension of time, shall not constitute a basis for any claim against the City for additional compensation or damages unless caused by the City or another Contractor employed by the City.

6.05. DAMAGES FOR DELAY
In the event of compensable delay, the City shall only be liable for idle equipment, idle workers and the necessary costs of transporting equipment. The City shall be liable to the extent that the compensable delay is concurrent with excusable delays or Contractor caused delays to the controlling operation. The allowable costs shall be as for force account work under Section 2.04 with the following exceptions:
(a) The Delay Factor in the Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rules applies to each equipment rental rate;
(b) The daily number of payable hours shall equal the normal working hours during the delay, not to exceed eight (8) hours per day; and
(c) No markups will be added.

6.06. TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE
If at any time before completion of the Work, the City determines that it is either impossible or against the interests of the City to complete the Work, or if the Work is stopped by an injunction of a court of competent jurisdiction or by order of any competent authority, the City may, upon ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor, discontinue the Work and terminate the Contract. Upon service of such notice of termination, the Contractor shall discontinue the Work in such manner, sequence, and at such times as described below. The Contractor shall have no claim for damages for such discontinuance or termination, nor any claim for anticipated profits on the Work thus dispensed with, nor any other actually performed up to the time of discontinuance, including any Extra Work ordered by the Engineer to be done, nor for any claim for liquidated damages.

Termination of the Contract for convenience and the total compensation payable to the Contractor in the event of termination shall be governed by the following:

(3) When the Engineer determines that the Contractor has completed the Work under the Contract directed to be completed prior to termination and such other Work as may have been ordered to secure the project for termination, he or she will recommend that the Engineer formally accept the Contract, and immediately upon and after such Acceptance by the Engineer, the Contractor will not be required to perform any further Work thereon and shall be relieved of his or her Contractual responsibilities for injury to persons or damage to property which occurs after the formal Acceptance of the project by the Engineer. (c) The total compensation to be paid to the Contractor shall be determined by the Engineer on the basis of the following:
(1) The reasonable cost to the Contractor, without profit, for all Work performed under the Contract, including mobilization, demobilization and Work done to secure the project for termination. Reasonable cost will include a reasonable allowance for project Overhead and general administrative Overhead not to exceed a total of seven (7%) percent of Direct Costs of such Work.
(2) A reasonable allowance for profit on the cost of the Work performed as determined under Section 2.04(a) above, provided the Contractor establishes to the satisfaction of the Engineer that it is reasonably probable that he or she would have made a profit had the Contract been completed and provided further, that the profit allowed shall in no event exceed four (4%) percent of said cost.
(3) The reasonable cost to the Contractor of handling material returned to the vendor, delivered to the City or otherwise disposed of as directed by the Engineer.

In such event, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for all damages including costs of managerial and administrative services, engineering, legal and other consultant fees, and liquidated damages sustained or incurred by the City. (c) Upon termination, the Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished.

If the total cost incurred by the City on account of termination of the Contract and subsequent completion of the Work by the City by whatever method the City may deem expedient shall exceed said amount which the Contractor would otherwise have been paid, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable to the City for the full amount of such excess expense.

is reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time the Contract was made. The City shall have the right to deduct the amount of liquidated damages from any money due or to become due the Contractor.
(2) In addition, the City shall have the right to charge to the Contractor and to deduct from the final or progress payments for the Work the actual cost to the City of legal, engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other expenses, which are directly chargeable to the Contract and which accrue during the period of such delay, except that the cost of final inspection and preparation of the final estimate shall not be included in the charges. (b) Exclusions

Such removal shall be at the expense of the Contractor.

The Contractor shall use care in the removal of materials and equipment so as not to cause damage to existing facilities and structures. Contractor shall assume liability for all such damage. Where the construction has crossed yards or driveways, restoration shall be by the Contractor to the complete satisfaction of the Engineer, at the Contractor’s expense.

SECTION 7

MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT

7.01. MEASUREMENT OF QUANTITIES
(a) Where the Contract provides for payment on a lump sum price basis, no measurement of quantity will be made. Where the Contract provides for payment on a unit price basis, the quantities of work performed will be computed by the Engineer on the basis of measurements taken by the Engineer, and these measurements shall be final and conclusive. (b) All quantities of work computed under the Contract shall be based upon measurements by the Engineer according to United States Measurements and Weights.

Neither the payment of any estimate nor of any retained percentage shall relieve the Contractor of any obligation to make good any defective work or material.
(b) No compensation will be made in any case for loss of anticipated profits.

Increased or decreased work involving supplemental agreements will be paid for as provided in such agreements.
(c) The Work includes the preparatory work and operations needed for mobilization and demobilization of the Project. The Work, however, does not include establishing the Engineer’s field facility(s) of utility work and connections needed for these facilities.

7.03. PROGRESS ESTIMATE

Within the first ten (10) days of each succeeding calendar month, the Engineer will prepare in writing an estimate which in the Engineer’s opinion is a fair approximation of the value of all work done under the Contract, including any amounts due the Contractor for Extra Work and Change Orders. In arriving at the value of the Work done, the Engineer will give consideration to the value of labor and materials which have been incorporated into the permanent work by the Contractor during the preceding 271
Maximus Development Inc.

CPC24-300 – Homeless Emergency Housing Facility Improvements Expires on 5/1/2026
Updated 2/17/23
month. Consideration will not be given to preparatory work done or for materials or equipment on hand.

In order to assist the Engineer, the Contractor shall furnish the Engineer with copies of invoices for all such items delivered to the job site.

7.04. PROGRESS PAYMENTS
(a) The City will pay the Contractor ninety-five percent (95%) of the amount of each progress estimate within thirty (30) days after receipt of an undisputed and properly submitted progress estimate from the Contractor, unless the City has made a finding prebid pursuant to Public Contract Code section 7201(b)(4) justifying a larger retention. If the City fails to pay an undisputed progress estimate within the allotted thirty (30) days, the City shall pay interest to the Contractor equivalent to the legal rate set forth in subdivision (A) of section 685.010 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Five percent (5%) of the amount of each estimate shall be retained by the City until final completion and Acceptance of all work under the Contract. (b) Upon receipt of a payment request, the City shall act in accordance with both of the following:
(1) Each payment request shall be reviewed by the City as soon as practicable after receipt for the purpose of determining that the progress estimate is a proper payment request.
(2) Any payment request determined not to be a proper payment request suitable for payment shall be returned to the Contractor as soon as practicable, but not later than seven (7) days, after receipt. A request returned pursuant to this section shall be accompanied by a document setting forth in writing the reasons why the payment request is not proper.
(c) The number of days available to the City to make a payment without incurring interest pursuant to this section shall be reduced by the number of days by which the City exceeds the seven-day return requirement set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b). (d) The Contractor may, in accordance with the provisions of Public Contracts Code section 22300, substitute securities for any monies which the City may withhold to insure performance under the Contract.
(e) When, in the judgment of the Engineer, the Work is not proceeding in accordance with the provisions of the Contract, or when in the Engineer’s judgment the total amount of the Work done since the last estimate amounts to less than one thousand dollars ($1,000.00), no pay estimate will be prepared and no progress payment will be made. (f) No progress estimate or payment shall be considered to be an approval or Acceptance of any work, materials or equipment.

A prime Contractor or Subcontractor shall pay any Subcontractor not later than seven (7) days of receipt of each progress payment in accordance with the provisions in Section 7108.5 of the California Business and Professions Code concerning prompt payment to Subcontractors. The seven (7) days is applicable unless a longer period is agreed to in writing.

Any delay or postponement of payment over 30 days may take place only for good cause and with the City’s prior written approval. Any violation of Section 7108.5 shall subject the violating Contractor or Subcontractor to the penalties, sanctions and other remedies of that section. This requirement shall not be construed to limit or impair any contractual, administrative, or judicial remedies otherwise available to the Contractor or Subcontractor in the event of a dispute involving late payment or nonpayment by the prime Contractor , deficient subcontract performance, or noncompliance by a Subcontractor. This provision applies to both DBE and non-DBE Subcontractors.

The Contractor agrees to keep the Work, the site of the Work and all monies held by the City free and clear of all liens and stop notices related to labor and materials furnished in connection with the Work, if permitted by law. Furthermore, the Contractor waives any right it may have to file any type of lien or stop notice in connection with the Work. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Contract Documents, if any such lien or stop notice is filed or there is evidence to believe that lien or stop notice may be filed at any time during the progress of the Work or within the duration of this Contract, the City may refuse to make any payment otherwise due the Contractor or may withhold any payment due the Contractor a sum sufficient in the opinion of the City to pay all obligations and expenses necessary to satisfy such lien or stop notice. The City may withhold such payment unless or until the Contractor, within ten days after demand therefor by the City, shall furnish satisfactory evidence that the indebtedness and any lien or stop notice in respect thereof has been satisfied, discharged and released of record, or that the Contractor has legally caused such lien or stop notice to be released of record pending the resolution of any dispute between the Contractor and any person or persons filing such lien or stop notice. If the Contractor shall fail to furnish such satisfactory evidence within ten days of the demand therefor, the City may discharge such indebtedness and deduct the amount thereof, together with any and all losses, costs and damages suffered or incurred by the City from any sum payable to the Contractor under the Contract Documents, including but not limited to final payment and retained percentage. This section shall be specifically included in all Subcontracts and purchase orders entered into by the Contractor.

7.07. FINAL ACCEPTANCE AND DATE OF COMPLETION
Whenever the Contractor shall deem all Work under this Contract to have been completed in accordance therewith, the Contractor shall so notify the Engineer in writing, and the Engineer shall promptly ascertain whether the Work has been satisfactorily completed and, if not, shall advise the Contractor in detail and in writing of any additional work required. When all the provisions of the Contract have been fully complied with, to the satisfaction of the Engineer, the Engineer shall proceed with all reasonable diligence to determine accurately the total value of all Work performed by the Contractor at the prices set forth in the Contract or fixed by Change Orders, and the total value of all extra work, all in accordance with the Contract.

7.08. RIGHT TO WITHHOLD PAYMENTS
(a) In addition to all other rights and remedies of the City hereunder and by virtue of the law, the City may withhold or nullify the whole or any part of any partial or final payment to such extent as may reasonably be necessary to protect the City from loss on account of:
(1) Defective work not remedied, irrespective of when any such work be found to be defective;
(2) Claims or liens filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims or liens including, but not limited to claims under Sections 1775, 1776, or 1777.7 of the Labor Code;
(3) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly for labor, materials, equipment, or other facilities, or to Subcontractors and/or suppliers; (4) A reasonable doubt that the Work can be completed for the balance then unearned;

After the Contractor has corrected the enumerated deficiencies, the City will promptly pay to the Contractor the amount so withheld. When monies are withheld to protect the City against claims or liens of mechanics, material men, Subcontractors, etc., the City may at its discretion permit the Contractor to deliver a surety bond in terms and amount satisfactory to the City, indemnifying the City against any loss or expense, and upon Acceptance thereof by the City, the City shall release to the Contractor monies so withheld.

7.09. FINAL PAYMENT
Within ten (10) days after the date of completion, the City will file in the Office of the County Recorder, a Notice of Completion of the Work herein agreed to be done by the Contractor. Within sixty (60) days of completion defined in Public Contract Code section 7107, the difference between said final estimate and all payments theretofore made to the Contractor shall be due and payable to the Contractor, subject to any requirements concerning the furnishings of a maintenance bond, and excepting only such sum or sums as may be withheld or deducted in accordance with the provisions of this Contract.
