A Modification is (1) a written amendment to the Contract signed by both parties, (2) a Change Order, (3) a Construction Change Directive or (4) a written order for a minor change in the Work issued by WOOD/Engineer. 1.1.2 The Contract: The Contract represents the entire and integrated agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes prior negotiations, representations or agreements, either written or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified only by a Modification. The Contract Documents shall not be construed to create a contractual relationship of any kind (1) between the Engineer and Contractor, (2) between Sustainability Manager and Contractor, (3) between the WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager, (4) between the Owner and a Subcontractor or (5) between any persons or entities other than the Owner and Contractor. The Owner shall, however, be entitled to enforce the obligations under the Contract intended to facilitate performance of the duties of Sustainability Manager and WOOD/Engineer. 1.1.3 The Work: The term "Work" means the construction and services required by the Contract Documents, whether completed or partially completed, and includes all other labor, materials, equipment and services provided or to be provided by the Contractor to fulfill the Contractor's obligations. The Work may constitute the whole or a part of the Project. 1.1.4 The Project: The Project is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be the whole or a part and which may include construction by other Contractors and by the Owner's own forces including persons or entities under separate contracts not administered by Sustainability Manager. 1.1.5 The Drawings: The Drawings are the graphic and pictorial portions of the Contract Documents, wherever located and whenever issued, showing the design, location and dimensions of the Work, generally including plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and diagrams. 1.1.6 The Specifications: The Specifications are that portion of the Contract Documents consisting of the written requirements for materials, equipment, construction systems, standards and workmanship for the Work, and performance of related services. 1.1.7 The Project Manual: The Project Manual is the volume usually assembled for the Work which may include the proposal requirements, sample forms, Conditions of the Contract and Specifications. 1.2 Execution, Correlation and Intent 1.2.2 Execution of the Contract by the Contractor is a representation that the Contractor has visited the site, become familiar with local conditions under which the Work is to be performed and correlated personal observations with requirements of the Contract Documents. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 86 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 1.2.3 The intent of the Contract Document is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work by the contractor. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all; performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the intended results. 1.2.4 Organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections and articles, and arrangement of Drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade. 1.2.5 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words which have well-known technical or construction industry meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings. 1.2.6 Where on any of the drawings a portion of the Work is drawn out and the remainder is indicated in outline, the parts drawn out shall also apply to all other like portions of the Work. 1.3 Ownership and Use of Engineer's Drawings, Specifications and Other Documents 1.3.1 The Drawing, Specifications and other documents prepared by the WOOD/Engineer are instruments of the Engineer's service through which the Work to be executed by the Contractor is described. The Contractor may retain one contract record set. Neither the Contractor nor any Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor or material or equipment supplier shall own or claim a copyright in the Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the WOOD/Engineer. All copies of them, except the Contractor's record set, shall be returned or suitably accounted for to WOOD/Engineer on request, upon completion of the Work. The Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Engineer, and copies thereof furnished to the Contractor, are for use solely with respect to the Project. They are not to be used by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor or material or equipment suppliers unless they are granted a limited license to use and reproduce applicable portions of the Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Engineer appropriate to and for use in the execution of their Work under the Contract Documents. All copies made under this license shall bear the statutory copyright notice, if any, shown on the Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Engineer. Submittal or distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for other purposes in connection with this Project is not to be construed as publication in derogation of copyright or other reserved rights 1.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Contractor will be furnished, two (2) original sealed copies and one (1) electronic copy of Drawings, Specifications and the Project Manual free of charge for the execution of the Work. Additional copies may be obtained from WOOD/Engineer at a fee of $5.00 per page for full size drawings (.25 per page for written specifications or 11"x 17" drawings). 1.4 Capitalization 1.4.1 Terms capitalized in these General Conditions include those which are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles of numbered articles and identified references to Paragraphs, Subparagraphs and Clauses in the document or (3) the titles of other documents published by the American Institute of Architects. 1.5 Interpretation GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 87 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 1.5.1 In the interest of brevity the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as "all" and "any" and articles such as "the" and"an," but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears in another is not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement. 2.0 OWNER 2.1 Definition 2.1.1 The Owner is Monroe County. The term "Owner" means the Owner or the Owner's authorized representative. 2.2 Information and Services Required of the Owner 2.2.2 Not applicable 2.2.3 Not applicable 2.2.4 Information or services under the Owner's control shall be furnished by the Owner with reasonable promptness to avoid delay in orderly progress of the Work. 2.2.5 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Contractor will be furnished two (2) original sealed copies and one (1) electronic copy of Drawings, Specifications and the Project Manual free of charge for the execution of the Work as provided in Subparagraph 1.3.2. 2.2.6 The Owner shall forward all communications to the Contractor through Sustainability Manager and may contemporaneously provide the same communications to the Engineer. 2.2.7 The foregoing is in addition to other duties and responsibilities of the Owner enumerated herein and especially those in respect to Article 6 (Construction by Owner or by Other Contractors), Article 9 (Payments and Completion) and Article 11 (Insurance and Bonds). 2.3 Owner's Right to Stop the Work 2.3.1 If the Contractor fails to correct Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the contract Documents as required by Paragraph 12.2 or persistently fails to carry out Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Owner, by written order signed personally or by an agent specifically so empowered by the Owner, may order the Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, the right of the Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to a duty on the part of the Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of the Contractor or any other person or entity. 2.4 Owner's Right to Carry Out the Work 2.4.1 If the Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents and fails within a three-day period after receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of such default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may after such three-day period give the Contractor a second written notice to correct such deficiencies within a three-day period. If the Contractor within such second three-day period after receipt of such second notice fails to commence and continue to correct any deficiencies, the Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies the Owner may have, correct such deficiencies. In such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued deducting from payments then or thereafter due the Contractor the cost of correcting such deficiencies, including compensation for another contractor or subcontractor or Sustainability Manager's and Engineer's and their respective consultants' additional services and expenses made necessary by such GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 88 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL default, neglect or failure.

The term "Contractor" means the Contractor or the Contractor's authorized representative. 3.1.2 The plural term "Contractors" refers to persons or entities who perform construction under Conditions of the Contract that are administered by Sustainability Manager, and that are identical or substantially similar to these Conditions. 3.2 Review of Contract Documents and Field Conditions by Contractor 3.2.1 The Contractor shall carefully study and compare the Contract Documents with each other and with information furnished by the Owner pursuant to Subparagraph 2.2.2 and shall at once report to WOOD/Engineer errors, inconsistencies or omissions discovered. The Contractor shall not be liable to the Owner, Sustainability Manager or WOOD/Engineer for damage resulting from errors, inconsistencies or omissions in the Contract Documents unless the Contractor recognized such error, inconsistency or omission and knowingly failed to report it to WOOD/Engineer.

Subcontractors shall similarly make copies of applicable portions of such documents available to their respective proposed Sub-subcontractors. 5.4 Contingent Assignment of Subcontracts 5.4.1 Each subcontract agreement for a portion of the Work is assigned by the Contractor to the Owner provided that: .1 assignment is effective only after termination of the Contract by the Owner for cause pursuant to Paragraph 14.2 and only for those subcontract agreements which the Owner accepts by notifying the Subcontractor in writing; and .2 assignment is subject to the prior rights of the surety, if any, obligated under public construction bond covering the Contract. i. If the work has been suspended for more than 30 days, the Subcontractor's compensation shall be equitably adjusted. 6.0 CONSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR BY OTHER CONTRACTORS 6.1 Owner's Right to Perform Construction with Own Forces and to Award Other Contracts 6.1.1 The Owner reserves the right to perform construction or operations released to the Project with the Owner's own forces, which include persons or entities under separate contracts not administered by Sustainability Manager. The Owner further reserves the right to award other contracts in connection with other portions of the Project or other construction or operations on the site under Conditions of the Contract identical or substantially similar to these including those portions related to insurance and waiver or subrogation. 6.1.2 When the Owner performs construction or operations with the Owner's own forces including persons or entities under separate contracts not administered by Sustainability Manager, the Owner shall provide for coordination of such forces with the Work of the Contractor who shall cooperate with them. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 100 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 6.1.3 It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to coordinate his work with the work of other contractors on the site. The Owner and Sustainability Manager shall be held harmless for any and all costs associated with improper coordination. 6.2 Mutual Responsibility 6.2.1 The Contractor shall afford the Owner's own forces and other contractors' reasonable opportunity for introduction and storage of their materials and equipment and performance of their activities and shall connect and coordinate the Contractor's construction and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents. 6.2.2 If part of the Contractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the Owner's own forces or other contractors, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly report to any apparent discrepancies or defects in such other construction that would render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. Failure of the Contractor so to report shall constitute an acknowledgment that the Owner's own forces or other contractors completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the Contractor's Work, except as to defects not then reasonably discoverable. 6.2.3 Costs caused by delays or by improperly timed activities or defective construction shall be borne by the Contractor. The Contractor's sole remedy as against the Owner for costs caused by delays or improperly timed activities or defective construction shall be an extension of time. 6.2.4 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage wrongfully caused by the Contractor to be completed or partially completed construction or to property of the Owner or other contractors as provided in Subparagraph 10.2.5. 6.2.5 Claims and other disputes and matters in question between the Contractor and other contractors shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 4.7 provided the other contractors have reciprocal obligations. 6.2.6 The Owner and other contractors shall have the same responsibilities for cutting and patching as are described for the Contractor in Paragraph 3.14. 6.2.7 Should the Contractor contend that he is entitled to an extension of time for completion of any portion or portions of the work, he shall, within (72) hours of the occurrence of the cause of the delay, notify Sustainability Manager in writing, of his contention: setting forth (A) the cause for the delay, (B) a description of the portion or portions of work affected thereby, and (C) all details pertinent thereto. A subsequent written application for the specific number of days of extension of time requested shall be made by the Contractor to Sustainability Manager within (72) hours after the delay has ceased to exist. .1 It is a condition precedent to the consideration or prosecution of any claim for an extension of time that the foregoing provisions be strictly adhered to in each instance and, if the Contractor fails to comply, he shall be deemed to have waived the claim. .2 The Contractor agrees that whether or not any delay, regardless of cause, shall be the basis for an extension of time he shall have no claim against the Owner or Sustainability Manager for an increase in the Contract price, nor a claim against the Owner or Sustainability Manager for a payment or allowance of any kind for damage, loss or expense resulting from delays; nor shall the Contractor have any claim for damage, loss or expense resulting from interruptions to, or suspension of, his work to enable other contractors to perform their work. The only remedy available to the Contractor shall be an extension of time. 6.3 Owner's Right to Clean Up GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 101 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 6.3.1 If a dispute arises among the Contractor, other contractors and the Owner as to the responsibility under their respective contracts for maintaining the premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish as described in Paragraph 3.15, the Owner may clean up and allocate the cost among those responsible as Sustainability Manager determines to be just. 7.0 CHANGES IN THE WORK 7.1 Changes 7.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the Contract, by Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work, subject to the limitations stated in this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents. 7.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement among the Owner, Sustainability Manager, WOOD/Engineer and Contractor; a Construction Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and Sustainability Manager and may or may not be agreed to by the Contractor; an order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by WOOD/Contractor alone. 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, and the Contractor shall proceed promptly, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work. 7.1.4 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed Change Order or Construction Change Directive that application of such unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted. 7.2 Change Orders 7.2.1 A change Order is a written instrument prepared by WOOD/Engineer and signed by the Owner, Sustainability Manager and Contractor stating their agreement upon all of the following: .1 a change in the Work; .2 the amount of the adjustment in the Contract Sum, if any; and .3 the extent of the adjustment in the Contract Time, if any. 7.2.2 The cost or credit to the Owner resulting from a change in the Work shall be determined in one or more of the following methods: .1 mutual acceptance of lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation and payment, and approved by the appropriate authority in writing; .2 unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and approved by the appropriate authority in writing; .3 cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; .4 or by method provided in subparagraph 7.2.3. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 102 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 7.2.3 If none of the methods set forth in Clauses 7.2.1 or 7.2.2 is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided a written order signed by the Owner or Sustainability Manager is received, shall promptly proceed with the Work involved. The cost of such Work shall then be determined by daily force accounts in a form acceptable to the Owner and Sustainability Manager. The daily force account forms shall identify Contractor and /or Subcontractor personnel by name, total hours for each man, each piece of equipment and total hours for equipment and all material(s) by type for each extra Work activity claim. Each daily force account form shall be signed by the designated Sustainability Manager representative no later than the close of business on the day the Work is performed to verify the items and hours listed. Extended pricing of these forms shall be submitted to Sustainability Manager with all supporting documentation required by Sustainability Manager for inclusion into a change order. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, cost shall be limited to the following: cost of materials, including sales tax and cost of delivery; cost of labor, including social security, old age and unemployment insurance, and fringe benefits required by agreement or custom; works' or workmen's compensation insurance; and the rental value of equipment and machinery. Markups for overhead and profit will be in accordance with subparagraph 7.2.4. Pending final determination of cost, payments on account shall be made as determined by Sustainability Manager. The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor for any deletion or change, which results in a net decrease in the Contract Sum, will be the amount of the actual net cost to the Owner as confirmed by Sustainability Manager. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in any one change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of the net increase, if any with respect to that change. 7.2.4 The actual cost of Changes in the Work may include all items of labor or material, power tools, and equipment actually used, utilities, pro rata charges for foreman, and all payroll charges such as Public Liability and Workmen's Compensation Insurance. No percentage for overhead and profit shall be allowed on items of Social Security and Sales Tax. If deductions are ordered the amount of credit shall be net cost to Owner as defined in section 5.6.1 of the Contract. Items considered as overhead shall include insurance other than that mentioned above, bond or bonds, superintendent, timekeeper, clerks, watchmen, use of small tools, miscellaneous supplies, incidental job costs, warranties, and all general home/field office expenses. The actual cost of Changes in the Work(other than those covered by unit prices set forth in the Contract Documents) shall be computed as follows: .1 if the Contractor performs the actual Work, the maximum percentage mark-up for overhead shall be five percent (5%) and the maximum percentage for profit shall be five percent (5%); 2 if the Subcontractor performs the actual Work, the subcontractor's percentage mark- up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%). If the Contractor does not perform the Work, the maximum mark-up for managing the Work will be five percent (5%); 3. If the Subcontractor performs part of the actual Work, his percentage mark-up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%) on his direct Work only. If the Contractor performs part of the actual Work, his percentage mark-up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%) on his direct Work only. 7.2.5 The Contractor shall furnish to the Owner through Sustainability Manager, an itemized breakdown of the quantities and prices used in computing the value of any change that might be ordered. Any additional supporting documentation requested by Sustainability Manager such as GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 103 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL certified quotations or invoices shall be provided by the Contractor to Sustainability Manager at no additional cost to the Owner. 7.2.6 If the Contractor claims that any instructions given to him by WOOD/Engineer, by drawings or otherwise, involve extra Work not covered by the Contract, he shall give Sustainability Manager written notice thereof within five (5) days after the receipt of such instructions and before proceeding to execute the work, except in emergencies endangering life or property, in which case the Contractor shall proceed in accordance with Paragraph 10.3. .1 The written notice to Sustainability Manager for the Extra Work shall include a complete description of the extra Work, the total cost and a detailed cost breakdown by labor, material and equipment for each additional activity required to be performed. Mark-ups shall be limited as specified elsewhere in this Article. .2 Except as otherwise specifically provided, no claim for additional cost shall be allowed unless the complete notice specified by this subparagraph is given by the Contractor. 7.2.7 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Contractor shall carry on the Work and maintain its progress during any dispute or claim proceeding, and Owner shall continue to make payments to the Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents. Disputes unresolved shall be settled in accordance with subparagraph 4.7. The Contractor shall maintain completed daily force account forms in accordance with subparagraph 7.2.3 for any dispute or claim item. 7.3 Authority 7.3.1 WOOD/Engineer will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving adjustment in the Contract sum or extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be affected by written order issued through WOOD/Engineer and shall be binding on the Owner and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written order promptly. 8.0 TIME 8.1 Definitions 8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in the Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work. 8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement. The date shall not be postponed by the failure to act of the Contractor or of persons or entities for which the Contractor is responsible. 8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by Sustainability Manager in accordance with Paragraph 9.8. 8.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined. 8.1.5 The Owner/Sustainability Manager shall be the final judge as to whether Substantial Completion has been achieved and certifies the date to the Contractor. 8.2 Progress and Completion GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 104 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement the Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work. 8.2.2 The Contractor shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, prematurely commence operations on the site or elsewhere prior to the effective date of insurance required by Article 11 to be furnished by the Contractor. The date of commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such insurance. 8.2.3 The Contractor shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the Contract Time. 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time 8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed, at any time, in the progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner, Sustainability Manager, or the WOOD/Engineer, or by any employee of either, or by any separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by fire, unusual delay in transportation, adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable casualties or any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner, Sustainability Manager, or by any other cause which Sustainability Manager determines may justify the delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by no cost Change Order for such reasonable time as Sustainability Manager may determine, in accordance with subparagraph 6.2.7. 8.3.2 Any claim for extension of time shall be made in writing to Sustainability Manager not more than Seventy-two (72) hours after the commencement of the delay in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise it shall be waived. Any claim for extension of time shall state the cause of the delay and the number of days of extension requested. If the cause of the delay is continuing, only one claim is necessary, but the Contractor shall report the termination of the cause for the delay within seventy-two (72) hours after such termination in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise, any claim for extension of time based upon that cause shall be waived. 8.3.3 No claim for an increase in the Contract Sum for either acceleration or delay will be allowed for extensions of time pursuant to this Paragraph 8.3 or for other changes in the Construction Schedules. 8.3.4 If the Project is delayed as a result of the Contractor's refusal or failure to begin the Work on the date of commencement as defined in Paragraph 8.1.2, or his refusal or failure to carry the Work forward expeditiously with adequate forces, the Contractor causing the delay shall be liable for, but not limited to, delay claims from other Contractors which are affected. 9.0 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION 9.1 Contract Sum 9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents. 9.2 Schedule of Values 9.2.1 Before submittal of the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to WOOD/Engineer, a schedule of values allocated to various portions of the Work, prepared in such GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 105 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as WOOD/Engineer may require. This schedule, unless objected to by Sustainability Manager, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for Payment. 9.3 Applications for Payment 9.3.1 At least fifteen days before the date established for each progress payment,the Contractor shall submit to WOOD/Engineer an itemized Application for Payment for Work completed in accordance with the schedule of values. Such application shall be notarized and supported by such data substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as the Owner or Sustainability Manager may require, such as copies of requisitions from Subcontractors and material suppliers and reflecting retainage if provided for elsewhere in the Contract Documents. .1 Such applications may include request for payment on account of changes in the Work which have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives but not yet included in Change Orders. .2 Such applications may not include requests for payment of amounts the Contractor does not intend to pay to a Subcontractor or material supplier because of a dispute or other reason. 9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Contractor with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner's title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest, and shall include applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and equipment stored off the site. 9.3.3 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later than the time of payment. The Contractor further warrants that upon submittal of an Application for Payment all Work for which approval for payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of the Contractor's knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens, claims security interests or encumbrances in favor of the Contractor, Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities making a claim by reason of having provided labor, materials and equipment relating to the Work. All Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors shall execute an agreement stating that title will so pass, upon their receipt of payment from the Contractor. The warranties are for the administrative convenience of the Owner only and do not create an obligation on the part of the Owner to pay directly any unpaid subcontractor, laborer or materialmen. Such persons must seek payment from the Contractor or his public construction bond surety only. 9.4 Approval for Payment 9.4.1 WOOD/Engineer will assemble a Project Application for Payment by combining the Contractor's applications with similar applications for progress payments from other Contractors and certify the amounts due on such applications. 9.4.2 After the WOOD/Engineer's receipt of the Project Application for Payment, WOOD/Engineer will either recommend approval to the Sustainability Manager for the Application GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 106 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as WOOD/Engineer recommends to the Sustainability Manager is properly due, or notify the Contractor in writing of WOOD/Engineer's reasons for withholding approval in whole or in part as provided in Subparagraph 9.5.1 9.4.3 The issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will constitute representations made by WOOD/Engineer to the Owner, based on their individual observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment submitted by the Contractor, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of WOOD/Engineer's knowledge, information and belief, quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by WOOD/Engineer. The issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount approved. However, the issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will not be a representation that WOOD/Engineer has (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed the Contractor's construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor's right to payment or (4) made examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract Sum. 9.5 Decisions to Withhold Approval 9.5.1 WOOD/Engineer may decline to approve an Application for Payment if, in his opinion, the application is not adequately supported. If the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer cannot agree on a revised amount, WOOD/Engineer shall process the Application for the amount it deems appropriate. WOOD/Engineer may also decline to approve any Application for Payment because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent inspections. It may nullify, in whole or part, any approval previously made to such extent as may be necessary in its opinion because of: (1) defective Work not remedied; (2) third party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims; (3) failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials, or equipment; (4) reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum; (5)damage to WOOD/Engineer, Sustainability Manager, the Owner, or another contractor working at the project; (6) reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within the contract time; (7) persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. No payment shall be made to the Contractor until certificates of insurance or other evidence of compliance by the Contractor, with all the requirements of Article 11, have been filed with the Owner and Sustainability Manager. 9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding approval are removed, approval will be made for amounts previously withheld. 9.6 Progress Payments 9.6.1 After WOOD/Engineer has issued an Approval for Payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the time provided in the Contract Documents and shall so notify WOOD/Engineer. From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a progress payment, a retainage in accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt Payment Act, Chapter 218, GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 107 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL Florida Statutes will be deducted and retained by the Owner until the final payment is made. The balance of the amount payable, less all previous payments, shall be approved for payment. .1 It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or receive progress payment based on quantities of Work in excess of those provided in the proposal or covered by approved change orders, except when such excess quantities have been determined by WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager to be a part of the final quantity for the item of Work in question. .2 No progress payment shall bind the Owner to the acceptance of any materials or Work in place, as to quality or quantity. All progress payments are subject to correction at the time of final payments. 9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to Sub-subcontractors in similar manner. 9.6.3 WOOD/Engineer will, on request, furnish to a Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of completion or amounts applied for by the Contractor and action taken thereon by the Owner and Sustainability Manager on account of portions of the Work done by such Subcontractor. 9.6.4 Neither the Owner nor Sustainability Manager shall have an obligation to pay, or to see to, the payment of money to a Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law. 9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in Subparagraphs 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and 9.6.4. 9.6.6 A progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents. 9.6.7 All material and work covered by partial payments made shall thereupon become the sole property of the Owner, and by this provision shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor from the sole responsibility for the materials and Work upon which payments have been made or the restoration for any damaged material, or as a waiver of the right of the Owner or Sustainability Manager to require the fulfillment of all the terms of the Contract. 9.6.8 Except in case of bona fide disputes, or where the Contractor has some other justifiable reason for delay, the Contractor shall pay for all transportation and utility services not later than the end of the calendar month following that in which services are rendered and for all materials, tools, and other expendable equipment which are delivered at the site of the Project. The Contractor shall pay to each of his Subcontractors, not later than the end of the calendar month in which each payment is made to the Contractor, the representative amount allowed the Contractor on account of the Work performed by the Subcontractor. The Contractor shall, by an appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, also require each Subcontractor to make payments to his suppliers and Sub-subcontractors in a similar manner. 9.8 Substantial Completion GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 108 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents, so the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use. 9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer shall jointly prepare a comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected. The Contractor shall proceed promptly to complete and correct items on the list. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Upon receipt of the list, WOOD/Engineer will make an inspection to determine whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the list, which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, before issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by WOOD/Engineer. The Contractor shall then submit a request for another inspection by WOOD/Engineer, to determine Substantial Completion. When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, WOOD/Engineer will prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and shall fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Substantial Completion. The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of responsibilities assigned to them in such Certificate. 9.8.3 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof and upon application by the Contractor and certification by WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager, the Owner shall make payment, reflecting adjustment in retainage, if any, for such Work or portion thereof as provided in the Contract Documents. 9.9 Partial Occupancy or Use 9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion is designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer as required under Subparagraph 11.3.1 and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer shall jointly prepare a list as provided under Subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no agreement is reached, by decision of Sustainability Manager. 9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner, Sustainability Manager, WOOD/Engineer and Contractor shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record the condition of the Work. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 109 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL 9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents. 9.10 Final Completion and Final Payment 9.10.1 Upon completion of the Work, the Contractor shall forward to WOOD/Engineer a written Notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and shall also forward to WOOD/Engineer a final Contractor's Application for Payment. Upon receipt, WOOD/Engineer will promptly make such inspection. When WOOD/Engineer finds the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, WOOD/Engineer will promptly issue a final Approval for Payment stating that to the best of their knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of their observations and inspections, the Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and that the entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in said final Approval is due and payable. WOOD/Engineer's final Approval for Payment will constitute a further representation that conditions listed in Subparagraph 9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor's being entitled to final payment have been fulfilled. 9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the Owner's property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment is made, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has been given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5), if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract.

Electronic copies of approved submittals G. Evidence of payment and final release of liens and consent of surety to final release (includes final release from all utilities and utility companies). 9.10.3 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment. Such waivers shall be in addition to the waiver described Subparagraph 4.7.5. 9.11 Payment of Subcontractors 9.11.1 Any requirement of this Article 9 that the Contractor furnish proof to the Owner or Sustainability Manager that the subcontractors and materialmen have been paid is for the protection and convenience of the Owner only. Unpaid subcontractors and materialmen may only seek payment from the Contractor and the surety that provided the Contractor's Public Construction Bond. The Contractor must insert this paragraph 9.11 in all its contracts with subcontractors and materialmen. 10.0 PROTECTION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY 10.1 Safety Precautions and Programs 10.1.1 The Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the performance of the Contract.

Follow-up Inspections—The Contractor's Quality Control Representative will inspect the work daily to assure the continuing conformance of the work to the workmanship standards established during the preparatory and initial inspections. CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 134 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL Additionally, as a part of the follow-up inspection, sign-off sheets will be utilized as often as possible. The intent of these sheets is to achieve concurrence from other trade contractors and responsible parties that ensuing work can indeed commence over underlying work. This will prevent oversights and omissions which could elevate costs. Sign-off sheets shall be used for, but not be limited to, concrete, drywall, ceilings, painting, roofing substrates and flooring. These reports are to be generated by the Contractor and submitted to WOOD/Engineer Superintendent for approval prior to the start-up of work. Failure to generate a sign-off sheet or to attain proper signatures prior to covering up underlying work may affect payment for that piece of work if ensuing problems are detected or not. This disciplinary action shall be carried out via the Nonconformance Report. (See Section 1.4.13 of this plan.) Note: The Contractor shall be responsible to record these inspections and all other project related activities encountered throughout the day on the Contractor Daily Quality Control Report. 4. Completion Inspections—Upon completion of a given feature of the work, the Contractor's Quality Control Representative will meet with the Sustainability Manager representative WOOD/Engineer, if he so desires to attend, to perform an inspection of the completed work. Nonconforming items will be identified and corrected prior to commencement of the next operation. Note: The Contractor shall conduct and report corrections of this inspection which shall be a required submittal. 5. Follow-On Inspections—Upon execution of the contractor's completion inspection in elements of the work which result in concealment; such as, ceiling and drywall installations, the Contractor shall schedule and conduct multi-trade or singular inspections prior to covering installation. Note: WOOD/Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting. 6. Pre-Final Inspection—Upon substantial completion of the project work WOOD/Engineer shall coordinate and conduct a universal inspection of all areas and elements of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. This inspection shall be completed at least (15) days prior to the final substantial completion inspection which shall be conducted by WOOD/Engineer. All deficiencies and incomplete work should be completed prior to the final substantial completion inspection. B. OPERATION AND CHECK OUT TESTING The Contractor will provide personnel and equipment to perform the operational tests and check-out of the equipment, facilities or equipment constructed, fabricated or installed under this Contract. The Sustainability Manager CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 135 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL representative WOOD/Engineer will coordinate and witness all such tests. Notification should be given at least ten (10) days in advance of the scheduled tests. C. FINAL INSPECTION WOOD/Engineer will coordinate and attend all final inspections of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. Prior to requesting a final inspection, all tests for the equipment and systems must be completed. See Section 01700 for contract closeout. 1.4 REPORTING Maintaining accurate and retrievable records is extremely important in the Quality Assurance Program. These records will act as a main source of information in the present and in the future for the entire Sustainability Manager team. The main report that will be utilized to provide this information is the Daily Quality Control Report. Nonconformance Reports may also be issued. A. DAILY QUALITY CONTROL REPORT The Daily Quality Control Report shall be used to document the summary of daily inspection activities performed by the Contractor's designated Quality Control Representative. It shall include any of the steps of inspection that are performed that day, all test monitoring and any rework of nonconforming items. The daily Quality Control Report section of the Daily Superintendent's Report will be routinely used for daily reporting requirements. When the magnitude or complexity necessitates such, a more separate and comprehensive form will be used. Reference Contractor's Daily Report, and as needed Contractor Daily Quality Control Report, Section 01385. B. NONCONFORMANCE REPORT Nonconformance Reports will be issued for work that is found to be in nonconformance with the contract documents or the referenced quality standards. The report will be issued by Sustainability Manager. It is not the intent to routinely and repeatedly issue nonconformance reports, but to issue them only after normal enforcement standards have been exhausted, or if the work performed is a detriment to the project. A copy of the Nonconformance Report will be forwarded to the Site Project Manager for his information and/or action. It should also be included in the Contractor's Daily Quality Report package for general review. Nonconformance Reports will be signed off once the deficient item or items have adequately been corrected. This will be done by the issuing Superintendent and Project Manager. These sign-offs will be included with a corresponding corrective action taken. Significant nonconformance needs to be addressed to prevent recurrence. The signed-off report will also be submitted for review. CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 136 of 223 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #259 BIG PINE KEY, MONROE COUNTY, FL Work activities affected by a Nonconformance Report will proportionally counter- affect payments. Whether that be partial or full retainage will be left up to the discretion of Sustainability Manager. 1.5 AUDITS A. Sustainability Manager may choose at its option to perform Contractor audits of their Contractor Quality Control Plan at any time. Reports of these audit results will be forwarded to the Project Manager for his action. Any action items noted during an audit for the Contractor will be followed up and documented to insure compliance and avoid recurrence. 1.6 SUMMARY The intention of this plan is to create a system of checks and balances that will minimize delays caused by rework and a lack of planning and maximize production and insure that the finished product is one that the entire construction team can pride themselves in. These goals can be achieved by giving the Owner exactly what he has bought. The Owner will expect no more and through Quality Assurance, the construction team will provide no less.

Approved Scope of Work 2. Standard and Program Specific Terms and Conditions- December 2018 APPROVED SCOPE OF WORK The Approved Scope of Work includes all information provided with the grant application. The attached documents, taken from the grant application, provide a summary of the scope of work approved with this grant award. Scope of Work Summary Applicant: Monroe County Application No: RDC2018000097 Application Title: Canal WQ Improvements and Restoration in Unincorporated Monroe County The application requests funds for the planning, design, permitting, construction, implementation, and post-construction monitoring of canal water restoration technologies within unincorporated Monroe County, Florida. The canal water restoration project is intended to remedy the high nutrient loading and low dissolved oxygen impairing the waters by addressing the most significant causes of those conditions: accumulated organics, deep anoxic zones, seaweed loading, and poor flushing and tidal flow. The Monroe County Canal Management Master Plan (CMMP) has identified 107 canals in unincorporated Monroe County as having poor water quality. Each of the 107 canals exhibits one or more of the above listed contributing factors, and will require the implementation of one or a combination of restoration technologies. Potential improvements identified in the CMMP include (1) dredge/removal of sediment from canals, (2) placement of clean backfill to eliminate anoxic zones within canals, (3) installation of culverts to increase flushing, and (4) installation of air curtains to prevent weed wrack from entering canals. The 107 canals considered to have "Poor Water Quality" were ranked based on criteria outlined in the CMMP. Monroe County has completed restoration projects in eight of the 107 canals identified in the CMMP. Monroe County estimates awarded Direct Component funds will be sufficient to complete one canal restoration project of the remaining 99 canals identified for improvements, dependent upon final construction costs. Additional canals may be selected if funds are available. Monroe County will complete the scope of work and project with the assistance of two or more contractors. The scope of work includes (1) canal selection, (2) design and permitting, (3) construction, and (4) post-construction monitoring. Monroe County will determine success of this project based upon the successful improvement of canal water quality, as measured by the increase in dissolved oxygen concentration. The application requests a three-year performance period. Monroe County proposes to complete the award's scope of work using two or more contractors that have not yet been selected. One contract (estimated at$92,791.00) will be issued for design, permitting, construction engineering inspection and administrative services, including post-construction monitoring and a second contract (estimated at $371,167.00)will be issued for the construction of canal improvements.

Recipients also have the primary responsibility to prevent, detect, and investigate allegations of research misconduct and, for this purpose, may rely on their internal policies and procedures, as appropriate, to do so.Award funds expended on an activity that is determined to be invalid or unreliable because of research misconduct may result in appropriate enforcement action under the Award, up to and including Award termination and possible suspension or debarment. Treasury requires that any allegation that contains sufficient information to proceed with an inquiry be submitted to Treasury,which will also notify the Treasury Office of Inspector General of such allegation. Once the recipient has investigated the allegation, it will submit its findings to Treasury.Treasury may accept the recipient's findings or proceed with its own investigation;Treasury shall inform the recipient of the Treasury's final determination. 9.

The Fly America Act requires that federal travelers and others performing U.S. Government-financed air travel must use U.S. flag air carriers,to the extent that service by such carriers is available. Foreign air carriers may be used only in specific instances, such as when a U.S.flag air carrier is unavailable, or use of U.S.flag air carrier service will not accomplish the agency's mission. d. One exception to the requirement to fly U.S.flag carriers is transportation provided under a bilateral or multilateral air transport agreement, to which the United States Government and the government of a foreign country are parties, and which the Department of Transportation has determined meets the requirements of the Fly America Act pursuant to 49 U.S.C. §40118(b).The United States Government has entered into bilateral/multilateral"Open Skies Agreements"(U.S. Government Procured Transportation)that allow federal funded transportation services for travel and cargo movements to use foreign air carriers under certain circumstances. There are multiple "Open Skies Agreements"currently in effect. For more information about the current bilateral and multilateral agreements, visit the GSA website http://www.gsa.gov/portal/contenU103191.

Permittina Reauirements Prior to receiving Treasury authorization to start construction,the recipient must furnish evidence,satisfactory to Treasury, that recipient has received all federal,state and local permits necessary for the completion of the project. 4. Federal Interest in Real Property "Federal interest" refers to real property that is acquired or improved, in whole or in part, with RESTORE Act Direct Component funds,which must be held in trust by the Recipient for the benefit of the project for the Estimated Useful Life of the project, during which period Treasury retains an undivided equitable reversionary interest in the real property(i.e.,the"federal interest"). 5. Estimated Useful Life Property that is acquired or improved, in whole or in part,with federal assistance is held in trust by the recipient for the purpose(s)for which the award was made for the Estimated Useful Life. Estimated Useful Life means the period of years that constitutes the expected useful Iifespan of a project, as determined by Treasury,during which Treasury December 2018 Page 35 anticipates obtaining the benefits of the project pursuant to project purposes authorized by the RESTORE Act. For this award the recipient has proposed an Estimated Useful Life from the date of construction completion.Treasury's issuance of the grant agreement represents its concurrence with the recipient's proposed Estimated Useful Life. The recipient's obligation to the federal government continues for the Estimated Useful Life of the project, as determined by Treasury, during which Treasury retains an undivided equitable reversionary interest(the"federal interest") in the property improved, in whole or in part,with the Treasury investment. If Treasury determines that the recipient has failed or fails to meet its obligations under the terms and conditions of this award, Treasury may exercise its rights or remedies with respect to its federal interest in the project. However,Treasury's forbearance in exercising any right or remedy in connection with the federal interest does not constitute a waiver thereof. 6. Commencement of Construction The recipient should not commence construction prior to the date of the Award. The recipient must make a written request to Treasury for permission to commence construction after the construction contractor has been selected and at least 30 days prior to construction. For project costs to be eligible for Treasury reimbursement, Treasury must determine that the award of all contracts with associated costs are in compliance with the scope of the project and all terms and conditions of this award, and all necessary permits have been obtained, and the federal interest is secure. No construction funds may be drawn from ASAP without Treasury's written permission. If the recipient commences construction prior to Treasury's determination,the recipient proceeds at its own risk. Treasury will only review contract amendments or change orders which change the scope of a contract. 7. Use of Real Property Encumbering real property on which there is a federal interest without prior Treasury approval is an unauthorized use of the property and of project trust funds under this award. See 2 C.F.R. §200.316. Real property or interest in real property may not be used for purposes other than the authorized purpose of the award without the express, prior written approval of Treasury, for as long as the federal government retains an interest in the property. The property must not be sold, conveyed,transferred, assigned, mortgaged, or in any other manner encumbered except as expressly authorized in writing by Treasury.The recipient must maintain facilities constructed or renovated with grant funds in a manner consistent with the purposes for which the funds were provided for the duration of the Estimated Useful Life.

Recordina the Federal Interest in the Real Property To document the federal interest, the recipient agrees to prepare and properly record a "Covenant of Purpose, Use and Ownership" (Covenant), or, where a subrecipient is the title owner, to ensure that the subrecipient prepares and properly records a "Covenant of Purpose, Use and Ownership" (Covenant)on the property acquired or improved with federal assistance funds. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.316. This Covenant does not establish a December 2018 Page 36 traditional mortgage lien in that it does not establish a traditional creditor relationship requiring the periodic repayment of principal and interest, or the ability of Treasury to foreclose on the real property at any time. Rather, pursuant to the Covenant, the recipient and/or the subrecipient, as applicable, acknowledges that it holds title to the real property in trust for the public purposes of the financial assistance award and agrees, among other commitments,that it will repay the federal interest if it disposes of or alienates an interest in the real property, or uses it in a manner inconsistent with the public purposes of the award, during the Estimated Useful Life of the property. a. The Covenant must be satisfactory in form and substance to Treasury, must include the name and current address of the recipient and subrecipient(if applicable), the grant award number,amount and date of award and subrecipient agreement(if applicable),date of the purchase of property(if applicable),and the Estimated Useful Life of the project. It must also include statements that the real property will only be used for purposes consistent with the RESTORE Act; that it will not be mortgaged or used as collateral, sold or otherwise transferred to another party, without the written permission of Treasury; and that the federal interest cannot be subordinated, diminished, nullified or released through encumbrance of the property, transfer of the property to another party or any other action the recipient/subrecipient takes without the written permission of Treasury. b. The recipient agrees to provide to Treasury an attorney's title opinion as to the title owner of the property, and to properly record, in accordance with applicable law, the Covenant in the real property records in the jurisdiction in which the real property is located in order to provide public record notice to interested parties that there are certain restrictions on the use and disposition of the real property during its Estimated Useful Life, and that Treasury retains an undivided equitable reversionary interest in the real property to the extent of its participation in the project for which funds have been awarded. c. Treasury requires an opinion of counsel for the recipient to substantiate that the document has been properly recorded. d. Failure to properly and timely file and maintain documentation of the federal interest may result in appropriate enforcement action, including, but not limited to,disallowance of the cost of the acquisition or improvement by Treasury. e. The Federal Interest must be perfected and recorded/filed in accordance with state and/or local law concurrent with the acquisition of the real property, where an award includes real property acquisition, and for construction of buildings and projects to improve the real property, no later than the date construction and/or improvement work commences. f. When the Estimated Useful Life of the project is ended, the federal interest is extinguished and the federal government has no further interest in the real property. Exclusions from the requirement that the federal interest on real property be recorded will be at Treasury's sole discretion. The types of projects for which Treasury may agree to this exclusion are those projects for which federal funds will not be used to fund the construction of built structures, improvements to state parks, water and sewer lateral line projects affecting private properties, and shoreline stabilization projects. 9. Administration.Operation and Maintenance The recipient agrees to administer,operate, and maintain the project for its Estimated December 2018 Page 37 Useful Life in the same manner in which it operates and maintains similar facilities and equipment owned by it, and in accordance with state and local standards, laws and regulations. The recipient must not be in breach of its obligations under this award except to the extent the failure to fulfill any obligation is due to an Uncontrollable Force. "Uncontrollable Force" means an event beyond the reasonable control of, and without the fault or negligence of, the party claiming the Uncontrollable Force that prevents the recipient from honoring its contractual obligations under this Agreement and which, by exercise of the recipient's reasonable care,diligence and foresight,such recipient was unable to avoid. Uncontrollable Forces include, but are not limited to: a. Strikes or work stoppage; b. Floods, earthquakes,or other natural disasters;terrorist acts; and c. Final orders or injunctions issued by a court or regulatory body having competent subject matter jurisdiction which the recipient, claiming the Uncontrollable Force, after diligent efforts,was unable to have stayed, suspended,or set aside pending review by a court of competent subject matter jurisdiction. Neither the unavailability of funds or financing, nor conditions of national or local economies or markets must be considered an Uncontrollable Force. 10. Renortino Reauirement The recipient must complete and submit to Treasury a report on the status of the real property or interest in real property in which the federal government retains an interest, using a SF-429 Real Property Status Report form annually for the first three years after real property acquisition or completion of construction, and thereafter every five years until the end of the Estimated Useful Life or time of disposition,whichever is less. All reports must be for the period ending December 31,or any portion thereof, beginning with the year of completion of construction or real property acquisition, and are due no later than 30 days following the end of the reporting period. 11.

(3) The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation,proceeding, hearing, or action,including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the contractor's legal duty to furnish information. (4) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers'representatives of the contractor's commitments under this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment.

The December 2018 Page 41 contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States. The applicant further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work:Provided, That if the applicant so participating is a State or local government, the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality or subdivision of such government which does not participate in work on or under the contract. The applicant agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge of the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance. The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part 11, Subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the applicant agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: Cancel, terminate, or suspend in whole or in part this grant(contract,loan, insurance,guarantee);refrain from extending any further assistance to the applicant under the program with respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assurance of future compliance has been received from such applicant,and refer the case to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal proceedings. 17. Revised ADA Standards for Accessible Desian for Construction Awards The U.S. Department of Justice has issued revised regulations implementing Title II of the ADA(28 C.F.R.
