80-05 LIMITATION OF OPERATIONS. The Contractor shall control his/her operations
and the operations of his/her subcontractors and all suppliers so as to provide for the
free and unobstructed movement of aircraft in the AIR OPERATIONS AREAS of the
airport.
When the work requires the Contractor to conduct his/her operations within an AIR
OPERATIONS AREA of the airport, the work shall be coordinated with airport
management (through the Engineer) at least 48 hours prior to commencement of such
work. The Contractor shall not close an AIR OPERATIONS AREA until so authorized
by the Engineer and until the necessary temporary marking and associated lighting is in
place as provided in the subsection titled BARRICADES, WARNING SIGNS, AND
HAZARD MARKINGS of Section 70.
When the contract work requires the Contractor to work within an AIR OPERATIONS
AREA of the airport on an intermittent basis (intermittent opening and closing of the AIR
OPERATIONS AREA), the Contractor shall maintain constant communications as
hereinafter specified; immediately obey all instructions to vacate the AIR OPERATIONS
AREA; immediately obey all instructions to resume work in such AIR OPERATIONS
AREA. Failure to maintain the specified communications or to obey instructions shall be
cause for suspension of the Contractor's operations in the AIR OPERATIONS AREA
until the satisfactory conditions are provided. The following AIR OPERATIONS AREA
(AOA) cannot be closed to operating aircraft to permit the Contractor's operations on a
continuous basis and will therefore be closed to aircraft operations intermittently as
follows:

TIME PERIODS AOA CAN BE CLOSED
TYPE OF COMMUNICATIONS REQUIRED WHEN WORKING IN AN AOA
CONTROL AUTHORITY
80-06 CHARACTER OF WORKERS, METHODS, AND EQUIPMENT, The Contractor
shall,at all times, employ sufficient labor and equipment for prosecuting the work to full
completion in the manner and time required by the contract, plans, and specifications.
All workers shall have sufficient skill and experience to perform properly the work
assigned to them. Workers engaged in special work or skilled work shall have sufficient
experience in such work and in the operation of the equipment required to perform the
work satisfactorily,
All equipment which is proposed to be used on the work shall be of sufficient size and in
such mechanical condition as to met requirements of the work and to produce a
satisfactory quality of work. Equipment used on any portion of the work shall be such
that no injury to previously completed work, adjacent property, or existing airport
facilities will result from its use.
111-45
When the methods and equipment to be used by the Contractor in accomplishing the
work are not prescribed in the contract, the Contractor is free to use any methods or
equipment that will accomplish the work in conformity with the requirements of the
contract, plans, and specifications.
When the contract specifies the use of certain methods and equipment, such methods
and equipment shall be used unless others are authorized by the Engineer. If the
Contractor desires to use a method or type of equipment other than specified in the
contract, he may request authority from the Engin~er to do so. The request shall oe in
writing and shall include a full description of the methods and equipment proposed and
of the reasons for desiring to make the change. If approval is given, it will be on the
condition that the Contractor will be fully responsible for producing work in conformity
with contract requirements. If, after trial use of the substituted methods or equipment,
the Engineer determines that the work produced does not meet contract requirements,
the Contractor shall discontinue the use of the substitute method or equipment and shall
complete the remaining work with the specified methods and equipment. The
Contractor shall remove any deficient work and replace it with work of specified quality,
or take such other corrective action as the Engineer may direct. No change will be
made in basis of payment for the contract items involved nor in contract time as a result
of authorizing a change in methods or equipment under this subsection.
80-07 TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF THE WORK. The Engineer shall have the
authority to suspend the work wholly, or in part, for such period or periods as he may
deem necessary, due to unsuitable weather, or such other conditions as are considered
unfavorable for the prosecution of the work, or for such time as is necessary due to the
failure on the part of the Contractor to carry out orders given or perform any or all
provisions of the contract.
In the event that the Contractor is ordered by the Engineer, in writing, to suspend work
for some unforeseen cause not otherwise provided for in the contract and over which
the Contractor has no control, the Contractor may be reimbursed for actuall money
expended on the work during the period of shutdown. No allowance will be made for
anticipated profits. The period of shutdown shall be computed from the effective date of
the Engineer's order to suspend work to the effective date of the Engineer's order to
resume the work. Claims for such compensation shall be filed with the Engineer within
the time period stated in the Engineer's order to resume work. The Contractor shall
submit with his/her claim information substantiating the amount shown on the claim.
The Engineer will forward the Contractor's claim to the owner for consideration in
accordance with local laws or ordinances. No provision of this article shall be construed
as entitling the Contractor to compensation for delays due to inclement weather, for
suspensions made at the request of the Contractor, or for any other delay provided for
in the contract, plans, or specifications.
If it should become necessary to suspend work for an indefinite period, the Contractor
shall store all materials in such manner that they will not become an obstru<l;tion nor
become damaged in any way. He shall take every precaution to prevent damage or
111-46
deterioration of the work performed and provide for normal drainage of the work. The
Contractor shall erect temporary structures where necessary to provide for traffic on, to,
or from the airport.
80-08 DETERMINATION AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME. The number of
calendar or working days allowed for completion of the work shall be stated in the
proposal and contract and shall be known as the CONTRACT TIME.
Should the contract time require extension for reasons beyond the Contractor's control,
it shall be adjusted as follows:
A. CONTRACT TIME based on WORKING DAYS shall be calculated weekly by the
Engineer. The Engineer will furnish the Contractor a copy of his/her weekly
statement of the number of working days charged against the contract time
during the week and the number of working days currently specified for
completion of the contract (the original contract time plus the number of working
days, if any, that have been included in approved CHANGE ORDERS or
SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS covering EXTRA WORK).
The Engineer shall base his/her weekly statement of contract time charged on
the following considerations:
1) No time shall be charged for days on which the Contractor is
unable to proceed with the principal item of work under construction
at the time for at least 6 hours with the normal work force employed
on such principal item. Should the normal work force be on a
double-shift, 12 hours shall be used. Should the normal work force
be on a triple-shift, 18 hours shall apply. Conditions beyond the
Contractor's control such as strikes, lockouts, unusual delays in
transportation, temporary suspension of the principal item of work
under construction or temporary suspension of the entire work
which have been ordered by the Engineer for reasons not the fault
of the Contractor, shall not be charged against the contract time.
2) The Engineer will not make charges against the contract time prior
to the effective date of the notice to proceed.
3) The Engineer will begin charges against the contract time on the
first working day after the effective date of the notice to proceed.
4) The Engineer will not make charges against the contract time after
the date of final acceptance as defined in the subsection titled
FINAL ACCEPTANCE of Section 50.
5) The Contractor will be allowed 1 week in which to file a written
protest setting forth his/her objections to the Engineer's weekly
111-47
statement. If no objection is filed within such specified time, the
weekly statement shall be considered as acceptable to the
Contractor.
The contract time (stated in the proposal) is based on the originally estimated
quantities as described in the subsection titled INTERPRETATION OF
ESTIMATED PROPOSAL QUANTITIES of Section 20. Should the satisfactory
completion of the contract require performance of work in greater quantities than
those estimated in the proposal, the contract time shall be increased in the same
proportion as the cost of the actually completed quantities bears to the cost of the
originally estimated quantities in the proposal. Such increase in contract time
shall not consider either the cost of work or the extension of contract time that
has been covered by change order or supplemental agreement and shall be
made at the time of final payment.
B. CONTRACT TIME based on CALENDAR DAYS shall consist of the number of
calendar days stated in the contract counting from the effective date of the notice
to proceed and including all Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, and nonwork days.
All calendar days elapsing between the effective dates of the Engineer's orders
to suspend and resume all work, due to causes not the fault of the Contractor,
shall be excluded.
At the time of final payment, the contract time shall be increased in the same
proportion as the cost of the actually completed quantities bears to the cost of the
originally estimated quantities in the proposal. Such increase in the contract time
shall not consider either cost of work or the extension of contract time that has
been covered by a change order or supplemental agreement. Charges against
the contract time will cease as of the date of final acceptance.
C. When the contract time is a specified completion date, it shall be the date on
which all contract work shall be substantially completed.
If the Contractor finds it impossible for reasons beyond his/her control to
complete the work within the contract time as specified, or as extended in
accordance with the provisions of this subsection, he may, at any time prior to
the expiration of the contract time as extended, make a written request to the
Engineer for an extension of time setting forth the reasons which he believes will
justify the granting of his/her request. The Contractor's plea that insufficient time
was specified is not a valid reason for extension of time. If the Engineer finds
that the work was delayed because of conditions beyond the control and without
the fault of the Contractor, he may extend the time for completion in such amount
as the conditions justify. The extended time for completion shall then be in full
force and effect, the same as though it were the original time for completion.
80-09 FAILURE TO COMPLETE ON TIME. For each calendar day or workinQ day, as
specified in the contract, that any work remains uncompleted after the contract time
111-48
(including all extensions and adjustments as provided in the subsection titled
DETERMINATION AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME of this Section) the sum
specified in the contract and proposal as liquidated damages will be deducted from any
money due or to become due the Contractor or his/her surety. Such deducted sums
shall not be deducted as a penalty but shall be considered as liquidation of a
reasonable portion of damages that will be incurred by the owner should the Contractor
fail to complete the work in the time provided in his/her contract.
Permitting the Contractor to continue and finish the work or any part of it after the-time
fixed for its completion, or after the date to which the time for completion may have
been extended, will in no way operate as a wavier on the part of the owner of any of its
rights under the contract.
80-10 DEFAULT AND TERMINATION OF CONTRACT. The Contractor shall be
considered in default of his/her contract and such default will be considered as cause
for the owner to terminate the contract for any of the following reasons if the Contractor:
A. Fails to begin the work under the contract within the time specified in the
"Notice to Proceed," or
B. Fails to perform the work or fails -to provide sufficient workers, equipment
or materials to assure completion of work in accordance with the terms of
the contract, or
C. Performs the work unsuitably or neglects or refuses to remove materials
or to perform anew such work as may be rejected as unacceptable and
unsuitable, or
D. Discontinues the prosecution of the work, or
E. Fails to resume work which has been discontinued within a reasonable
time after notice to do so, or
F. Becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt, or commits any act of
bankruptcy or insolvency, or
G. Allows any final judgment to stand against him unsatisfied for a period of
10 days, or
H. Makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
I. For any other cause whatsoever, fails to carry on the work in an
acceptable manner.
Should the Engineer consider the Contractor in default of the contract for any reason
hereinbefore, he shall immediately give written notice to the Contractor and the
111-49
Contractor's surety as to the reasons for considering the Contractor in default and the
owner's intentions to terminate the contract.
If the Contractor or surety, within a period of 10 days after such notice, does not
proceed in accordance therewith, then the owner will, upon written notification from the
Engineer of the facts of such delay, neglect, or default and the Contractor's failure to
comply with such notice, have full power and authority without violating the contract, to
take the prosecution of the work out of the hands of the Contractor. The owner may
appropriate or use any or all materials and equipment that have been mobilized for use
in the work and are acceptable and may enter into an agreement for the completion of
said contract according to the terms and provisions thereof, or use such other methods
as in the opinion of the Engineer will be required for the completion of said contract in
an acceptable manner.
All costs and charges incurred by the owner, together with the cost of completing the
work under contract, will be deducted from any monies due or which may become due
the Contractor. If such expense exceeds the sum which would have been payable
under the contract, then the Contractor and the surety shall be liable and shall pay to
the owner the amount of such excess.
80-11 TERMINATION FOR NATIONAL EMERGENCIES. The owner shall terminate
the contract or portion thereof by written notice when the Contractor is prevented from
proceeding with the construction contract as a direct result of an Executive Order of the
President with respect to the prosecution of war or in the interest of national defense.
When the contract, or any portion thereof, is terminated before completion of all items of
work in the contract, payment will be made for the actual number of units or items of
work completed at the contract price or as mutually agreed for items of work partially
completed or not started. No claims or loss of anticipated profits shall be considered.
Reimbursement for organization of the work, and other overhsad expenses, (when not
otherwise included in the contract) and moving equipment and materials to and from the
job will be considered, the intent being that an equitable settlement will be made with
the Contractor.
Acceptable materials, obtained or ordered by the Contractor for the work and that are
not incorporated in the work shall, at the option of the Contractor, be purchased from
the Contractor at actual cost as shown by receipted bills and actual cost records at such
points of delivery as may be designated by the Engineer.
Termination of the contract or a portion thereof shall neither relieve the Contractor of
his/her responsibilities for the completed work nor shall it relieve his/her surety of its
obligation for and concerning any just claim arising out of the work performed.
END OF SECTION 80
III-50
SECTION 90
MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
90-01 MEASUREMENT OF QUANTITIES. All work completed under the contract will
be measured by the Engineer, or his/her authorized representatives, using United
States Customary Units of Measurement or the International System of Units.
The method of measurement and computations to be used in determination of
quantities of material furnished and of work performed under the contract will be those
methods generally recognized as conforming to good engineering practice.
Unless otherwise specified, longitudinal measurements for area computations will be
made horizontally, and no deductions will be made for individual fixtures (or leave-outs)
having an area of 9 square feet (0.8 square meter) or less. Unless otherwise specified,
transverse measurements for area computations will be the neat dimensions shown on
the plans or ordered in writing by the Engineer.
Structures will be measured according to neat lines shown on the plans or as altered to
fit field conditions.
Unless otherwise specified, all contract items which are measured by the linear foot
such as electrical ducts, conduits, pipe culverts, underdrains, and similar items shall be
measured parallel to the base or foundation upon which such items are placed.
In computing volumes of excavation the average end area method or other acceptable
methods will be used.
The thickness of plates and galvanized sheet used in the manufacture of corrugated
metal pipe, metal plate pipe culverts and arches, and metal cribbing will be specified
and measured in decimal fraction of inches.
The term "ton" will mean the short ton consisting of 2,000 pounds (907 kilograms)
avoirdupois. All materials which are measured or proportioned by weights shall be
weighed on accurate, approved scales by competent, qualified personnel at locations
designed by the Engineer. If material is shipped by rail, the car weight may be accepted
_ provided that only the actual weight of material be paid for. However, car we!ights will
not be acceptable for material to be passed through mixing plants. Trucks used to haul
material being paid for by weight shall be weighed empty daily at such times as the
Engineer directs, and each truck shall bear a plainly legible identification mark.
Materials to be measured by volume in the hauling vehicle shall be hauled in approved
vehicles and measured therein at the point of delivery. Vehicles for this purpose may
be of any size or type acceptable to the Engineer, provided that the body is of such
shape that the actual contents may be readily and accurately determined. All vehicles
III-51
shall be loaded to at least their water level capacity, and all loads shall be leveled when
the vehicles arrive at the point of delivery.
When requested by the Contractor and approved by the Engineer in writing, material
specified to be measured by the cubic yard (cubic meter) may be weighed, and such
weights will be converted to cubic yards (cubic meters) for payment purposes. Factors
for conversion from weight measurement to volume measurement will be determined by
the Engineer and shall be agreed to by the Contractor before such method of
measurement of pay quantities is used.
Bituminous materials will be measured by the gallon (liter) or ton (kilogram). When
measured by volume, such volumes will be measured at 60 F (15 C) or will be corrected
to the volume at 60 F (15 C) using ASTM 0 1250 for asphalts or ASTM 0633 for tars.
Net certified scale weights or weights based on certified volumes in the case of rail
shipments will be used as a basis of measurement, subject to correction when
bituminous material has been lost from the car or the distributor, wasted, or otherwise
not incorporated in the work.
When bituminous materials are shipped by truck or transport, net certified weights by
volume, subject to correction for loss or foaming, may be used for computing quantities.
Cement will be measured by the ton (kilogra~or hundredweight (kilogram).
Timber will be measured by the thousand feet board measure (M.F.B.M.) actually
incorporated in the structure. Measurement will be based on nominal widths and
thicknesses and the extreme length of each piece.
The term "lump sum" when used as an item of payment will mean complete payment
for the work described in the contract.
When a complete structure or structural unit (in effect, "lump sum" work) is specified as
the unit of measurement, the unit will be construed to include all necessary fittings and
accessories.
Rental of equipment will be measured by time in hours of actual working time and
necessary traveling time of the equipment within the limits of the work. Special
equipment ordered by the Engineer in connection with force account work will be
measured as agreed in the change order or supplemental agreement authorizing such
force account work as provided in the subsection titled PAYMENT FOR EXTRA AND
FORCE ACCOUNT WORK of this section.
When standard manufactured items are specified such as fence, wire, plates, rolled
shapes, pipe conduit, etc., and these items are identified by gage, unit weight, section
dimensions, etc., such identification will be considered to be nominal weights or
dimensions. Unless more stringently controlled by tolerances in cited specffications,
III-52
manufacturing tolerances established by the industries involved will be accepted.
Scales for weighing materials which are required to be proportioned or measured and
paid for by weight shall be furnished, erected, and maintained by the Contractor, or be
certified permanently installed commercial scales.
Scales shall be accurate within one-half percent of the correct weight throughout the
range of use. The Contractor shall have the scales checked under the observation of
the inspector before beginning work and at such other times as requested. - The
intervals shall be uniform in spacing throughout the graduated or marked length of the
beam or dial and shall not exceed one-tenth of 1 percent of the nominal rated capacity
of the scale, but not less than 1 pound (454 grams). The use of spring balances will not
be perm itted.
Beams, dials, platforms, and other scale equipment shall be so arranged that the
operator and the inspector can safely and conveniently view them.
Scale installations shall have available ten standard 50-pound (2.3 kilogram) weights for
testing the weighing equipment or suitable weights and devices for other approved
equipment.
Scales must be tested for accuracy and serviced before use at a new site. Platform
scales shall be installed and maintained with the platform level and rigid bulkheads at
each end.
Scales "overweighing" (indicating more than correct weight) will not be permitted to
operate, and all materials received subsequent to the last previous correct weighting-
accuracy test will be reduced by the percentage of error in excess of one-half of 1
percent.
In the event inspection reveals the scales have been "underweighing" (indicating less
than correct weight), they shall be adjusted, and no additional payment to the
Contractor will be allowed for materials previously weighed and recorded.
All costs in connection with furnishing,. installing, certifying, testing, and maintaining
scales; for furnishing check weights and scale house; and for all other items specified in
this subsection, for the weighing of materials for proportioning or payment, shall be
included in the unit contract prices for the various items of the project.
When the estimated quantities for a specific portion of the work are designated as the
pay quantities in the contract, they shall be the final quantities for which payment for
such specific portion of the work will be made, unless the dimensions of said portions of
the work shown on the plans are revised by the Engineer. If revised dimensions result
in an increase or decrease in the quantities of such work, the final quantities for
payment will be revised in the amount represented by the authorized changes in the
dimensions.
III-53
90-02 SCOPE OF PAYMENT. The Contractor shall receive and accept compensation
provided for in the contract as full payment for furnishing all materials, for performing all
work under the contract in a complete and acceptable manner, and for all risk, loss,
damage, or expense of whatever character arising out of the nature of the work or the
prosecution thereof, subject to the provisions of the subsection titled NO WAIVER OF
LEGAL RIGHTS of Section 70.
When the "basis of payment" subsection of a technical specification requires that the
contract price (price bid) include compensation for certain work or material essential to
the item, this same work or material will not also be measured for payment under any
other contract item which may appear elsewhere in the contract, plans, or
specifications.
90-03 COMPENSATION FOR ALTERED QUANTITIES. When the accepted
quantities of work vary from the quantities in the proposal, the Contractor shall accept
as payment in full, so far as contract items are concerned, payment at the original
contract price for the accepted quantities of work actually completed and accepted. No
allowance, except as provided for in the subsection titled ALTERATION OF WORK
AND QUANTITIES of Section 40 will be made for any increased expense, loss of
expected reimbursement, or loss of anticipated profits suffered or claimed by the
Contractor which results directly from such alterations or indirectly from his/her
unbalanced allocation of overhead and profit among the contract items, or from any
other cause.
90-04 PAYMENT FOR OMITTED ITEMS. As specified in the subsection titled
OMITTED ITEMS of Section 40, the Engineer shall have the right to omit from the work
(order nonperformance) any contract item, except major contract items, in the best
interest of the owner.
Should the Engineer omit or order nonperformance of a contract item or portion of such
item from the work, the Contractor shall accept payment in full at the contract prices for
any work actually completed and acceptable prior to the Engineer's order to omit or
nonperform such contract item.
Acceptable materials ordered by the Contractor or delivered on the work prior to the
date of the Engineer's order will be paid for at the actual cost to the Contractor and shall
thereupon become the property of the owner.
In addition to the reimbursement hereinbefore provided, the Contractor shall be
reimbursed for all actual costs incurred for the purpose of performing the omitted
contract item prior to the date of the Engineer's order. Such additional costs incurred by
the Contractor must be directly related to the deleted contract item and shall be
supported by certified statements by the Contractor as to the nature the amount of such
costs.
III-54
90-05 PAYMENT FOR EXTRA AND FORCE ACCOUNT WORK. Extra work,
performed in accordance with the subsection titled EXTRA WORK of Section 40, will be
paid for at the contract prices or agreed prices specified in the change order or
supplemental agreement authorizing the extra work. When the change order or
supplemental agreement authorizing the extra work requires that it be done by force
account, such force account shall be measured and paid for based on expended labor,
equipment, and materials plus a negotiated and agreed upon allowance for overhead
and profit.
A. Miscellaneous. No additional allowance will be made for general
superintendence, the use of small tools, or other costs for which no
specific allowance is herein provided.
B. Comparison of Record. The Contractor and the Engineer shall compare
records of the cost of force account work at the end of each day.
Agreement shall be indicated by signature of the Contractor and the
Engineer or their duly authorized representatives.
C. Statement. No payment will be made for work performed on a force
account basis until the Contractor has furnished the Engineer with
duplicate itemized statements of the cost of such force account work
detailed as follows:
1) Name, classification, date, daily hours, total hours, rate and
extension for each laborer and foreman.
2) Designation, dates, daily hours, total hours, rental rate, and
extension for each unit of machinery and equipment.
3) Quantities of materials, prices, and extensions.
4) Transportation of materials.
5) Cost of property damage, liability and workman's compensation
insurance premiums, unemployment insurance contributions, and
social security tax.
Statements shall be accompanied and supported by a receipted invoice for all materials
used and transportation charges. However, if materials used on the force account work
are not specifically. purchased for such work but are taken from the Contractor's stock,
then in lieu of the invoices the Contractor shall furnish an affidavit certifying that such
materials were taken from his/her stock, that the quantity claimed was actually used,
and that the price and transportation claimed represent the actual cost to the
Contractor.
III-55
90-06 PARTIAL PAYMENTS. Partial payments will be made at least once each month
as the work progresses. Said payments will be based upon estimates prepared by the
Engineer of the value of the work performed and materials complete in place in
accordance with the contract, plans, and specifications. Such partial payments may
also include the delivered actual cost of those materials stockpiled and stored in
accordance with the subsection titled PAYMENT FOR MATERIALS ON HAND of this
section.
No partial payment will be made when the amount due the Contractor since the last
estimate amounts to less than five hundred dollars.
From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a partial payment, 10 percent
of such total amount will be deducted and retained by the owner until the final payment
is made, except as may be provided (at the Contractor's option) in the subsection titled
PAYMENT OF WITHHELD FUNDS of this section. The balance (90 percent) of the
amount payable, less all previous payments, shall be certified for payment. Should the
Contractor exercise his/her option, as provided in the subsection titled PAYMENT OF
WITHHELD FUNDS of this section, no such 10 percent retainage shall be deducted.
When not less than 95 percent of the work has been completed the Engineer may, at
his/her discretion and with the consent of the surety, prepare an estimate from which
will be retained an amount not less than twice the contract value or estimated cost,
whichever is greater, of the work remaining to be done. The remainder, less all
previous payments and deductions, will then be certified for payment to the Contractor.
It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or
receive partial payment based on quantities of work in excess of those provided in the
proposal or covered by approved change orders or supplemental agreements, except
when such excess quantities have been determined by the Engineer to be a part of the
final quantity for the item of work in question.
No partial payment shall bind the owner to the acceptance of any materials or work in
place as to quality or quantity. All partial payments are subject to correction at the time
of final payment as provided in the subsection titled ACCEPTANCE AND FINAL
PAYMENT of this section.
90-07 PAYMENT FOR MATERIALS ON HAND. Partial payments may be made to the
extent of the delivered cost of materials to be incorporated in the work, provided that
such materials meet the requirements of the contract, plans, and specifications and are
delivered to acceptable sites on the airport property or at other sites in the vicinity that
are acceptable to the owner. Such delivered costs of stored or stockpiled materials may
be included in the next partial payment after the following conditions are met:
A. The material has been stored or stockpiled in a manner acceptable to the
Engineer at or on an approved site.
III-56
B. The Contractor has furnished the Engineer with acceptable evidence of
the quantity and quality of such stored or stockpiled materials.
C. The Contractor has furnished the Engineer with satisfactory evidence that
the material and transportation costs have been paid.
D. The Contractor has furnished the owner legal title (free of liens or
encumbrances of any kind) to the material so stored or stockpiled.
E. The Contractor has furnished the owner evidence that the material so
stored or stockpiled is insured against loss by damage to or
disappearance of such materials at anytime prior to use in the work.
It is understood and agreed that the transfer of title and the owner's payment for such
stored or stockpiled materials shall in no way relieve the Contractor of his/her
responsibility for furnishing and placing such materials in accordance with the
requirements of the contract, plans, and specifications.
In no case will the amount of partial payments for materials on hand exceed the contract
price for such materials or the contract price for the contract item in which the material is
intended to be used.
No partial payment will be made for stored or stockpiled living or perishable plant
materials.
The Contractor shall bear all costs associated with the partial payment of stored or
stockpiled materials in accordance with the provisions of this subsection.
90-08 PAYMENT OF WITHHELD FUNDS. At the Contractor's option, he/she may
request that the owner accept (in lieu of the 10 percent retainage on partial payments
described in the subsection titled PARTIAL PAYMENTS of this section) the Contractor's
deposits in escrow under the following conditions.
A. The Contractor shall bear all expenses of establishing and maintaining an
escrow account and escrow agreement acceptable to the owner.
B. The Contractor shall deposit to and maintain in such escrow only those
securities or bank certificates of deposit as are acceptable to the owner
and having a value not less than the 10 percent retainage that would
otherwise be withheld from partial payment.
C. The Contractor shall enter into an escrow agreement satisfactory to the
owner.
D. The Contractor shall obtain the written consent of the surety to such
agreement.
III-57
90-09 ACCEPTANCE AND FINAL PAYMENT. When the contract work has been
accepted in accordance with the requirements of the subsection titled FINAL
ACCEPTANCE of Section 50, the Engineer will prepare the final estimate of the items of
work actually performed. The Contractor shall approve the Engineer's final estimate or
advise the Engineer of his/her objections to the final estimate which are based on
disputes in measurements or computations of the final quantities to be paid under the
contract as amended by change order or supplemental agreement. The Contractor and
the Engineer shall resolve all disputes (if any) in .the measurement and computation of
final quantities to be paid within 30 calendar days of the Contractor's receipt of the
Engineer's final estimate. If, after such 30-day period, a dispute still exists, the
Contractor may approve the Engineer's estimate under protest of the quantities in
dispute, and such disputed quantities shall be considered by the owner as a claim in
accordance with the subsection titled CLAIMS FOR ADJUSTMENT AND DISPUTES of
Section 50.
After the Contractor has approved, or approved under protest, the Engineer's final
estimate, final payment will be processed based on the entire sum, or the undisputed
sum in case of approval under protest, determined to be due the Contractor less all
previous payments and all amounts to be deducted under the provisions of the contract.
All prior partial estimates and payments shall be subject to correction in the final
estimate and payment.
If the Contractor has filed a claim for additional compensation under the provisions of
the subsection titled CLAIMS FOR ADJUSTMENTS AND DISPUTES of Section 50 or
under the provisions of this subsection, such claims will be considered by the owner in
accordance with local laws or ordinances. Upon final adjudication of such claims, any
additional payment determined to be due the Contractor will be paid pursuant to a
supplemental final estimate.
END OF SECTION 90
III-58
SECTION 100
CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
100-01 GENERAL. When the specifications require a Contractor Quality Control
Program, the Contractor shall establish, provide, and maintain an effective Quality
Control Program that details the methods and procedures that will be taken to a~sure
that all materials and completed construction conform to contract plans, technical
specifications and other requirements, whether manufactured by the Contractor, or
procured from subcontractors or vendors. Although guidelines are established and
certain minimum requirements are specified herein and elsewhere in the contract
technical specifications, the Contractor shall assume full responsibility for accomplishing

CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT CLAUSES
AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
120-01 LABOR PROVISIONS
1. Each Sponsor entering into a Construction Contract over Two Thousand
Dollars ($2,000.00) for an Airport Development project is required to insert
in the Contract the following provisions from 29CFR 5.5. Each Contractor
is to include these provisions in each Construction Subcontract.
a. Minimum Wages
(1) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the
site of the work will be paid unconditionally and not less
often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction
or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as
are permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of
Labor under the Copeland Act [29 CFR Part 3]), the full
amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash
equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at
rates not less than those contained in the wage
determination of the Secretary of Labor which is attached
hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual
relationship which may be alleged to exist between the
Contractor and such laborers and mechanics. Contributions
made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe
benefits under Section 1 (b )(2) of the Davis-Bacon Act on
behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid
to laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of
subparagraph a.(4) below; also, regular contributions made
or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less
often than quarterly) under plans, funds, programs which
cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to be
constructively made or incurred during such weekly period.
Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate
wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage determination for
the classification of Work actually performed, without regard
to skill, except as provided in paragraph d. of this clause.
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
111-69
performed. The wage determination (including any additional
classification and wage rates conformed under a.(2) of this
Section) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH-1321) shall be
posted at all times by the Contractor and its subcontractors
at the site of the Work in a prominent and accessible place
where it can easily be seen by the workers.
(2)
(I)
The Contracting Officer shall require that any class of
laborers or mechanics which is not listed in the wage
determination and which is to be employed under the
Contract shall be classified in conformance with the
wage determination. The Contracting Officer shall
approve an additional classification and wage rate
and fringe benefits therefore only when the following
criteria have been met:
(A) The Work to be performed by the classification
requested is not performed by a classification
in the wage determination; and
(B) The classification is utilized in the area by the
construction industry; and
(C) The proposed wage rate, including any bona
fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in the
wage determination.
(ii) If the Contractor and the laborers and mechanics to
be employed in the classification (if known)., or their
representatives, and the Contracting Officer agree on
the classification and wage rate (including the amount
designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a
report of the action taken shall be sent by the
Contracting Officer to the Administrator of the Wage
and Hour Division, Employment Standards
Administration, U.S. Department of Labor,
Washington, D.C. 20210. The Administrator, or an
authorized representative, will approve, modify, or
disapprove every additional classification action within
thirty (30) days of receipt and so advise the
contracting officer or will notify the Contracting Officer
within the thirty (30) day period that addition$1 time is
necessary. (Approved by the Office of Management
and Budget under OMB control number 1215-<0140.)
111-70
(iii) In the event the Contractor, the laborers or mechanics
to be employed in the classification or their
representatives, and the Contracting Officer do not
agree on the proposed classification and wage rate
(including the amount designated for fringe benefits
where appropriate), the Contracting Officer shall refer
the questions, including the views of all interested
parties and the recommendation of the contracting
officer, to the Administrator for determination. - The
Administrator, or an authorized representative, will
issue a determination within thirty (30) days of receipt
and so advise or notify the Contracting Officer within
the thirty (30) day period that additional time is
necessary. (Approved by the Office of Management
and Budget under OMB control number 1215-0140.)
(iv) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where
appropriate) determined pursuant to subparagraphs
(2)(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph, shall be paid to all
workers performing work in the classification under
this Contract from the first day on which work is
performed in the classification.
(3) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the Contract
for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit
which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the Contractor
shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage
determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or
an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
(4) If the Contractor does not make payments to a trustee or
other third person, the Contractor may consider as part of
the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any
costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe
benefits under a plan or program, Provided, that the
Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the
Contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon
Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the
Contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the
meeting of obligations under the Plan or Program.
(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under
OMB control number 1215-0140.)
b. Withholding. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) shall
upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized
representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be
111-71
withheld from the Contractor under this Contract or any other
Federal Contract with the same prime contractor, or any other
federally-assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage
requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor, so much
of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered
necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices,
trainees, and helpers, employed by the Contractor or any
subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the Contract. In
the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any
apprentice, trainee or helper, employed or working on the site of
work, all or part of the wages required by the Contract, the FAA
may, after written notice to the Contractor, Sponsor, Applicant, or
Owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the
suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds
until such violations have ceased.
c. Payrolls and Basic Records.
(1) Payrolls and Basic Records relating thereto shall be
maintained by the Contractor during the course of the Work
and preserved for a period of three (3) years thereafter for all
laborers and mechanics working at the site of the Work.
Such records shall contain the name, address, and social
security number of each such worker, his or her correct
classification hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of
contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits
or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in section
1 (b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number
of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid.
Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under a(4) of
this clause that the wages of any laborer or mechanic
include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in
providing benefits under a plan or program described in
section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the Contractor
shall maintain records which show that the commitment to
provide such benefits is enforceable, that the Plan or
Program is financially responsible, and that the Plan or
Program has been communicated in writing to the laborers
or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs
anticipated or the actual costs incurred in providing such
benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees
under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of
the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification
of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and
trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the
applicable programs. (Approved by the Office of
111,.72
(2) (I)
Management and Budget under OMB control number 1215-
0140 and 1215-0017.)
The Contractor shall submit weekly, for each week in
which any contract work is performed, a copy of all
payrolls to the Applicant, Sponsor, or Owner, as the
case may be, for transmission to the FAA. The
payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and
completely all of the information required to be
maintained under paragraph c(1) above. This
information may be submitted in any form desired.
Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose
and may be purchased from the Superintendent of
Documents (Federal Stock Number 029-005-00014-
1), U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington,
D.C. 20402. The prime Contractor is responsible for
the submission of copies of payrolls by all
subcontractors. (Approved by the Office of
Management and Budget under OMB control number
1215-0149.)
(ii) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a
"Statement of Compliance," signed by the Contractor
or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or
supervises the payment of the persons employed
under the Contract and shall certify the following:
(A) That the payroll for the payroll period contains
the information required to be maintained
under paragraph c(1) above and that such
information is correct and complete;
(B) That each laborer and mechanic (including
each helper, apprentice and trainee) employed
on the Contract during the payroll period has
been paid the full weekly wages earned,
without rebate, either directly or indirectly and
that no deductions have been made either
directly or indirectly from the full wages earned,
other than permissible deductions as set forth
in Regulations 29 CFR Part 3;
(C) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid
not less than the applicable wage rates and
fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the
classification of work performed, as specified in
111-73
the applicable wage determination
incorporated into the Contract.
(iii) The weekly submission of a properly executed
certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional
Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for
submission of the "Statement of Compliance" required
by paragraph c.(2)(b) of this section.
(iv) The falsification of any of the above certifications may
subject the Contractor or subcontractor to civil or
criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18
and Section 231 of Title 31 of the United States Code.
(3) The Contractor or subcontractor shall make the records
required under paragraph c.(1) of this section available for
inspection, copying or transcription by authorized
representatives of the FAA or the Department of Labor, and
shall permit such representatives to interview employees
during working hours on the job. If the Contractor or
subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make
them available, the Federal agency may, after written notice
to the Contractor, sponsor, applicant or Owner, take such
action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any
further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds.
Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon
request or to make such records available may be grounds
for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.
d. Apprentices and Trainees
(1) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less
than the predetermined rate for the Work they performed
when they are employed pursuant to and individually
registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered
with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and
Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized
by the bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first
ninety (90) days of probationary employment as an
apprentice in such as apprenticeship program, who is not
individually registered in the program, but who has been
certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a
State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be
eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The
allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site
111-74
in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio
permitted to the Contractor as to the entire work force under
the registered program.
Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate,
who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated
above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate
on the wage determination for the classification of work
actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing
work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under
the registered program shall be paid not less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work
actually performed. Where a Contractor is performing
construction on a project in a locality other than that in which
its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates
.(expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate)
specified in the Contractor's or subcontractor's registered
program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid
at not less than the rate specified in the registered program
for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a
percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specifi$d in the
applicable wage determination. Apprentices shan 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, fringes shall be paid in
accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau
of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State Apprenticeship
Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an
apprenticeship program, the Contractor will no longer be
permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable
predetermined rate for the Work performed until an
acceptable program is approved.
(2) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will
not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate
for the Work performed unless they are employed pursuant
to and individually registered in a program which has
received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by
the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the
job site shall not be greater that permitted under the Plan
approved by the Employment and Training Administration.
111-75
Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified
in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress,
expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate
specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees
shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the
provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program
does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the
full amount of fringe benefits listed in the wage determination
unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division
determines that there is an apprenticeship program
associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on
the wage determination which provides for less than full
fringe benefits for -apprentices. Any employee listed on the
payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and
participating in a training plan approved by the Employment
and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed. In addition, any
trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio
permitted under the registered program shall be paid not
less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the Work actually performed. In the event
the Employment and Training Administration withdraws
approval of a training program, the Contractor will no longer
be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable
predetermined rate for the work performed until an
acceptable program is approved.
(3) Equal Employment Opportunity. The utilization of
apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall
be in conformity with the Equal Employment Opportunity
requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and
29 CFR Part 30.
e. 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.
f. Subcontracts. The Contractor or Subcontractor shall insert in any
subcontracts the clauses contained in paragraphs a through j of this
Contract and such other clauses as the FAA may by appropriate
instructions require, and also a clause requiring the subcontractors
to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime
contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any
subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the Contract
clauses in 29 CFR 5.5.
111-76
g. Contract Termination: Debarment. A breach of the Contract
clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the
Contract, and for the debarment as a Contractor and a
subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
h. Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act Requirements.
All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts
contained in 29 CFR Parts 11 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by
reference in this Contract.
I. Disputes Concerning Labor Standards. Disputes arising out of
the labor standards provisions of this Contract shall not be subject
to the general disputes clause of this Contract. Such disputes shall
be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department
of Labor set forth in 29 CFR Parts 5, 6 and 7. Disputes within the

120-02 EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY REQUIREMENTS
A. Standard Federal Eaual Emplovment Opportunity Construction
Contract Specifications (Executive Order 11246. as amended).
1. As used in these Specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the
solicitation from which this Contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs (OFCCP), U.S. Department of Labor, or any person of
whom the Director delegates authority;
c. "Employer Identification Number" means the Federal Social
Security number used on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax
Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941;
d. "Minority" includes:
1) Black (all persons having origins in any of the black African
racial groups not of Hispanic origin);
2) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban,
Central or South American or other Spanish culture or origin
regardless of race);
3) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any
of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast, Asia, the
Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and
4) American Indian or Alaskan native (all persons having
111-79
origins in any of the original peoples of North America and
maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership
and participation or community identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a
portion of the Work involving any construction trade, it shall physically
include in each subcontract in excess of $10,000 (Ten Thousand Dollars)
the provisions of these Specifications and the notice which contains the
applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth
in the solicitations from which this Contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60-4.5) in a
Hometown Plan approved by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered
area either individually or through an association, its affirmative action
obligations on all work in the plan area (including goals and timetables)
shall be in accordance with that plan for those trades which have unions
participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their
participation in and compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown
Plan. Each Contractor or subcontractor participating in an approved plan
is individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause
and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in
each trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith performance
by other Contractors or subcontractors toward a goal in an approved plan
does not excuse any covered Contractor's or subcontractor's failure to
take good faith efforts to achieve the plan goals and timetables.
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards
provided in paragraphs 7a through p of these Specifications. The goals
set forth in the solicitation from which this Contract resulted are expressed
as percentages of the local hours of employment and training of minority
and female utilization the Contractor should reasonably be able to achieve
in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area.
Covered construction contractors performing construction work in
geographical areas where they do not have a federal or federally assisted
construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals established
for the geographical area where the work is being performed. Goals are
published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and such
notices may be obtained from any Federal Contract Compliance Programs
office or from Federal Procurement contracting officers. The Contractor is
expected to make substantially uniform progress in meeting its goals in
each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement nor the
failure by a union with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining
agreement to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the
Contractor's obligations under these Specifications, Executive Order
111-80
11246, as amended, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to
be counted in meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be
employed by the Contractor during the training period and the Contractor
must have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at
the completion of their training, subject to the availability of employment
opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs
approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.
7. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure EEO. The
evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these Specifications shall
be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its actions. The
Contractor shall document these efforts fully and shall implement
affirmative action steps at least as extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment,
intimidation, and coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which
the Contractor's employees are assigned to work. The Contractor,
where possible, will assign two or more women to each
construction project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that
all foremen, superintendents, and other onsite supervisory
personnel are aware of and carry out the Contractor's obligation to
maintain such a working environment, with specific attention to
minority or female individuals working at such sites or in such
facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female
recruitment sources, provide written notification to minOrity and
female recruitment sources and to community organizations when
the Contractor on its unions have employment opportunities
available, and maintain a record of the organization's responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of each minority and female off-the street applicant and
minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source, a
community organization and of what action was taken with respect
to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union
hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the Oontractor
by the union or, if referred, not employed by the Contractor, this
shall be documented in the file with the reason therefore along with
whatever additional actions the Contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the
union or unions with which the Contractor has a collective
bargaining agreement has not referred to the Contractor a minority
111-81
person or woman sent by the Contractor, or when the Contractor
has other information that the union referral process has impeded
the Contractor's efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in
training programs for the area which expressly includes minorities
and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and
trainee programs relevant to the Contractor's employment needs,
especially those programs funded or approved by the Department
of Labor. The Contractor shall provide notice of these programs to
the sources complied under 7b above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the
policy to unions and training programs and requesting their
cooperation in assisting the Contractor in meeting its EEO
obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective
bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper,
annual report, etc.; by specific review of the policy with all
management personnel and with all minority and female employees
at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on
bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where
construction work is performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the Company's EEO policy and
affirmative action obligations under these Specifications with all
employees having any responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff,
termination, or other employment decisions including specific
review of these items with onsite supervisory personnel such as
superintendents, general foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of
construction work on any job site. A written record shall be made
and maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings,
persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the
subject matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in
any advertising in the news media, specifically including minority
and female news media, and providing written notification to and
discussing the Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors and
subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing
business.
I. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority,
female, and community organizations, to schools with minority and
female students; and to minority and female recruitment and
training organizations serving the Contractor's recruitment area and
employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for
111-82
the acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other training
by any recruitment source, the Contractor shall send written
notification to organizations, such as the above, describing the
openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the
selection process.
j. Encourage present minority female employees to recruit other
minority persons and women and, where reasonable, provide after
school, summer, and vacation employment to minority and female
youth both on the site and in other areas of a Contractor's work
force.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is
an obligation to do so under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
I. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation, at least of
all minority and female personnel, for promotional opportunities and
encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for, through
appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work
assignments, and other personnel practices do not have a
discriminatory effect by continually mor:titoring all personnel and
employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the
Contractor's obligations under these Specifications are being
carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated
except that separate or single-user toilet and necessary changing
facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for
subcontracts from minority and female construction contractors and
suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female
contractor associations and other business associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors, adherence to
and performance under the Contractor's EEO policies and
affirmative action obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which
assist in fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations (7a
through p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union,
contractor-community, or other similar groups of which the Contractor is a
member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling anyone or more of
its obligations under 7a through p of these Specifications provided that the
111-83
Contractor actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure
that the group has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and
women in the industry, ensures that the concrete benefits of the program
are reflected in the Contractor's minority and female work force
participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and
timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates
the effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the Contractor. The
obligation to comply, however, is the Contractor's and failure of such a
group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the Contraetor's
noncompliance.
9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have
been established. The Contractor, however, is required to provide EEO
and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and
female, and all women, both minority and non-minority. Consequently, the
Contractor may be in violation of the executive order if a particular group is
employed in a substantially disparate manner (for example, even though
the Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the Contractor
may be in violation of the executive order if a specific minority group of
women is under utilized).
10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action
standards to discriminate against any person because of race, color,
religion, sex, or national origin.
11. The Contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm
debarred from government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246,
as amended.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of
these Specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including
suspension, termination, and cancellation of existing subcontracts as may
be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended,
and its implementing regulations, by the OFCCP. Any contractor who fails
to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall be in violation of these
Specifications and Executive Order 11246, as amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these Specifications, shall
implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those
standards prescribed in paragraph 7 of these Specifications, so as to
achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment
opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of the
executive order, the implementing regulations, or these Specifications, the
Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all
111-84
employment related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is
being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as
may be required by the government, and to keep records. Records shall
at least include for each employee, the name, address, telephone number,
construction trade, union affiliation, if any, employee identification number
when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic,
apprentice, trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours
worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and locations at which
the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in an easily
understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that existing
records satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required to
maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the
application of other laws which establish different standards of compliance
or upon the application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area
residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977
and the Community Development Block Grant Program).
