Re:
Emergency Relief Reimbursement Agreement with FOOT for Hurricane Dennis
The Engineering Division is requesting approval to enter into an agreement with the Florida
Department of Transportation (FOOT) for emergency relief funding for expenses incurred as a
result of debris removal operations on federal aid roads during Hurricane Dennis.
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) authorized funds to reimburse local
governments for 100% of the cost of the first pass for debris clearance from federal aid roads.
Subsequent passes are reimbursed by FEMA. A previous agreement that was approved by
the SOCC in June 2006 provided reimbursement for expenses related to Hurricanes Katrina,
Rita and Wilma.
Staff supports approving this agreement.

Federal Highway Administration Provision - Buy America
Source of Supply - Steel (Federal-Aid Contracts Only): For Federal-aid Contracts, only use steel and iron
produced in the United States, in accordance with the Buy America provisions of 23 CFR 635.410, as amended. Ensure
that all manufacturing processes for this material occur in the United States. As used in this specification, a
manufacturing process is any process that modifies the chemical content, physical shape or size, or final finish of a
product, beginning with the initial melding and mixing and continuing through the bending and coating stages. A
manufactured steel or iron product is complete only when all grinding, drilling, welding, finishing and coating have been
completed. If a domestic product is taken outside the United States for any process, it becomes foreign source material.
When using steel and iron as a component of any manufactured product incorporated into the project (e.g., concrete pipe,
prestressed beams, corrugated steel pipe, etc.), these same provisions apply, except that the manufacturer may use
minimal quantities of foreign steel and iron when the cost of such foreign materials does not exceed 0.1 % of the total
Contract amount or $2,500, whichever is greater. These requirements are applicable to all steel and iron materials
incorporated into the finished work, but are not applicable to steel and iron items that the Contractor uses but does not
incorporate into the finished work. Provide a certification from the producer of steel or iron, or any product containing
steel or iron as a component, stating that all steel or iron furnished or incorporated into the furnished product was
manufactured in the United States in accordance with the requirements of this specification and the Buy America
provisions of 23 CFR 635.410, as amended. Such certification shall also include (1) a statement that the product was
produced entirely within the United States, or (2) a statement that the product was produced within the United States
except for minimal quantities of foreign steel and iron valued at $ 2.500.00. Furnish each such certification to the
Engineer prior to incorporating the material into the project. When FHW A allows the use of foreign steel on a project,
furnish invoices to document the cost of such material, and obtain the Engineer's written approval prior to incorporating
the material into the project.

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 State highway agency (SHA) and the Federal Government in
carrying out EEO obligations and in their review of his/her activities under the contract.
b. The contractor will accept as his 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, color, national origin, age or
disability. Such action shall include: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or
recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of payor other forms of compensation; and
selection for training, including apprenticeship, preapprenticeship, and/or on-the-job training."
2. EEO Officer: The contractor will designate and make known to the SHA contracting officers an EEO
Officer who will have the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively administering and promoting
an active contractor program of EEO 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 who 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.
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 minority group employees.
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 minority groups 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 minority
group applicants. To meet this requirement, the contractor will identify sources of potential minority
group employees, and establish with such identified sources procedures whereby minority group
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, he is expected to observe the provisions of that agreement to the extent that the system
permits the contractor's compliance with EEO contract provisions. (The DOL has held that where
implementation of such agreements have the effect of discriminating against minorities or women, or
obligates the contractor to do the same, such implementation violates Executive Order 11246, as
amended.)
c. The contractor will encourage his present employees to refer minority group applicants for
employment. Information and procedures with regard to referring minority group 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, national origin,
age or disability. The following procedures shall be followed:
a. The contractor will conduct periodic inspections of project sites to insure 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 his obligations under this contract, will attempt to resolve such
complaints, and will take appropriate corrective action within a reasonable time. If the investigation
indicates that the discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant, such corrective
action shall include such ot-her persons. Upon completion of each investigation, the contractor will
inform every complainant of all of his avenues of appeal.
6. Training and Promotion:
a. The contractor will assist in locating, qualifying, and increasing the skills of minority group and
women employees, and applicants for employment.
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, Le., apprenticeship, and on-the-
job training programs for the geographical area of contract performance. Where feasible, 25 percent
of apprentices or trainees in each occupation shall be in their first year of apprenticeship or training.
In the event a special provision for training is provided under this contract, this subparagraph will be
superseded as indicated in the special provision.
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 minority group and
women employees 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 his/her best efforts to obtain the cooperation of such unions to increase opportunities for minority
groups and women within the unions, and to effect referrals by such unions of minority and female
employees. 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 best efforts to develop, in cooperation with the unions, joint training programs
aimed toward qualifying more minority group members and women for membership in the unions
and increasing the skills of minority group employees and women so that they may qualify for higher
paying employment.
b. The contractor will use best 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, 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 SHA 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 minority and
women 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, national origin, age or disability; making full efforts to obtain qualified and/or
qualifiable minority group persons and women. (The DOL has held that it shall be no excuse that the
union with which the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement providing for exclusive referral
failed to refer minority employees.) 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 SHA.
8. Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials and Leasing of Equipment: The contractor
shall not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability in the
selection and retention of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment.
a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors and suppliers of his/her EEO obligations under
this contract.
b. Disadvantaged business enterprises (DBE), as defined in 49 CFR 23, shall have equal opportunity to
compete for and perform subcontracts which the contractor enters into pursuant to this contract. The
contractor will use his best efforts to solicit bids from and to utilize DBE subcontractors or
subcontractors with meaningful minority group and female representation among their employees.
Contractors shall obtain lists of DBE construction firms from SHA personnel.

c. The contractor will use his best efforts to ensure subcontractor compliance with their EEO
obligations.
9. 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 completion of
the contract work and shall be available at reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized
representatives of the SHA and the FHW A.
a. The records kept by the contractor shall document the following:
1. The number of minority and non-minority 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;
3. The progress and efforts being made in locating, hiring, training, qualifying, and upgrading
minority and female employees; and
4. The progress and efforts being made in securing the services of DBE subcontractors or
subcontractors with meaningful minority and female representation among their employees.
b. The contractors will submit an annual report to the SHA each July for the duration of the project,
indicating the number of minority, women, and non-minority group employees currently engaged in
each work classification required by the contract work. This information is to be reported on Form
FHWA-1391. If on-the-job training is being required by special provision, the contractor will be
required to collect and report training data.
III. NONSEGREGATED FACILITIES
(Applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts of $10,000 or more.)
a. By submission of this bid, the execution of this contract or subcontract, or the consummation of this
material supply agreement or purchase order, as appropriate, the bidder, Federal-aid construction
contractor, subcontractor, material supplier, or vendor, as appropriate, certifies that the firm does not
maintain or provide for its employees any segregated facilities at any of its establishments, and that
the firm does not permit its employees to perform their services at any location, under its control,
where segregated facilities are maintained. The firm agrees that a breach of this certification is a
violation of the EEO provisions of this contract. The firm further certifies that no employee will be
denied access to adequate facilities on the basis of sex or disability.
b. As used in this certification, the term "segregated facilities" means any waiting rooms, work areas,
restrooms and washrooms, restaurants and other eating areas, timeclocks, locker rooms, and other
storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas,
transportation, and housing facilities provided for employees which are segregated by explicit
directive, or are, in fact, segregated on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, age or
disability, because of habit, local custom, or otherwise. The only exception will be for the disabled
when the demands for accessibility override (e.g. disabled parking).
c. The contractor agrees that it has obtained or will obtain identical certification from proposed
subcontractors or material suppliers prior to award of subcontracts or consummation of material
supply agreements of $10,000 or more and that it will retain such certifications in its files.
IV. PAYMENT OF PREDETERMINED MINIMUM WAGE
(Applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts, except for
projects located on roadways classified as local roads or rural minor collectors, which are exempt.)
1. General:
a. All mechanics and laborers 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 (29 CFR 3) issued by
the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (40 U.S.C. 276c)] the full amounts of wages and
bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment. The payment shall be
computed at wage rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of
Labor (hereinafter "the wage determination") which is attached hereto and made a part hereof,
regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor or its
subcontractors and such laborers and mechanics. The wage determination (including any additional
classifications and wage rates conformed under paragraph 2 of this Section IV and the DOL poster
(WH-1321) or Form FHW A-1495) shall be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors
350-000-15
COMPTROLLER
OGC - 05/07
Page 13 of 22
at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the
workers. For the purpose of this Section, contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for
bona fide fringe benefits under Section 1(b)(2) of the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 276a) on behalf of
laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the
provisions of Section IV, paragraph 3b, hereof. Also, for the purpose of this Section, 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 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 paragraphs 4 and 5 of this
Section IV.
b. 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.
c. All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon Act and related acts contained in 29 CFR 1, 3, and
5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.
2. Classification:
a. The SHA contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics employed under
the contract, which is not listed in the wage determination, shall be classified in conformance with the
wage determination.
b. The contracting officer shall approve an additional classification, wage rate and fringe benefits only
when the following criteria have been met:.
1. the work to be performed by the additional classification requested is not performed by a
classification in the wage determination;
2. the additional classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry;
3. the proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination; and
4. with respect to helpers, when such a classification prevails in the area in which the work is
performed.
c. If the contractor or subcontractors, as appropriate, the laborers and mechanics (if known) to be
employed in the additional classification 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 DOL,
Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, Washington,
D.C. 20210. The Wage and Hour 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.
d. In the event the contractor or subcontractors, as appropriate, the laborers or mechanics to be
employed in the additional 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 Wage and Hour
Administrator for determination. Said 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
e. The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraph 2c or
2d of this Section IV shall be paid to all workers performing work in the additional classification from
the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
3. Payment of Fringe Benefits:
a. 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 or subcontractors,
as appropriate, shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another
bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly case equivalent thereof.
b. If the contractor or subcontractor, as appropriate, does not make payments to a trustee or other third
person, he/she may consider as a part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any
350-000-15
COMPTROLLER
OGC - 05/07
Page 14 of 22
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.
4. Apprentices and Trainees (Programs of the U.S. DOL) and Helpers:
a. Apprentices:
1. 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 DOL, 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/her first 90 days of probationary employment as
an apprentice in such an 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.
2. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyman-level employees on the job site 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 employee 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 listed in 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 or
subcontractor 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-level hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered
program shall be observed.
3. 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 journeyman-level hourly
rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall 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
for the Wage and Hour Division determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable
apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination.
4. 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 or
subcontractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable
predetermined rate for the comparable work performed by regular employees until an
acceptable program is approved.
b. Trainees:
1. 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 DOL, Employment and Training Administration.
2. The ratio of trainees to journeyman-level employees on the job site shall not be greater than
permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. 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.
3. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for
his/her level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman-level 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
350-000-15
COMPTROLLER
OGC - 05/07
Page 15 of 22
mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the
wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that
there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman-level wage
rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices,
in which case such trainees shall receive the same fringe benefits as apprentices.
4. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training
program, the contractor or subcontractor 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.
c. Helpers:
Helpers will be permitted to work on a project if the helper classification is specified and defined
on the applicable wage determination or is approved pursuant to the conformance procedure set
forth in Section IV.2. Any worker listed on a payroll at a helper wage rate, who is not a helper
under a approved definition, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the classification of work actually performed.
5. 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. 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 journeymen shall not be greater than
permitted by the terms of the particular program.
6. Withholding:
The SHA shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the DOL
withhold, or cause to be withheld, from the contractor or subcontractor 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, as 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 the work, all or part of the
wages required by the contract, the SHA contracting officer may, 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.
7. Overtime Requirements:
No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or
involve the employment of laborers, mechanics, watchmen, or guards (including apprentices, trainees,
and helpers described in paragraphs 4 and 5 above) shall require or permit any laborer, mechanic,
watchman, or guard in any workweek in which he/she is employed on such work, to work in excess of 40
hours in such workweek unless such laborer, mechanic, watchman, or guard receives compensation at a
rate not less than one-and-one-half times his/her basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40
hours in such workweek.
8. Violation:
Liability for Unpaid Wages; Liquidated Damages: In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in
paragraph 7 above, the contractor and any subcontractor responsible thereof shall be liable to the
affected employee for his/her unpaid wages. 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, mechanic, watchman, or guard employed in violation of
the clause set forth in paragraph 7, in the sum of $10 for each calendar day on which such employee was
required or permitted to work in excess of the standard work week of 40 hours without payment of the
overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph 7.
9. Withholding for Unpaid Wages and Liquidated Damages:
350-000-15
COMPTROLLER
OGC - 05/07
Page 16 of 22
The SHA shall upon its own action or upon written request of any authorized representative of the DOL
withhold, or cause to be withheld, from any monies payable on account of work performed by the
contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or 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, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be
necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated
damages as provided in the clause set forth in paragraph 8 above.

and workers on Federal-aid 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, the following notice shall be posted on
