In order to formulate a realistic Affirmative Action Plan, CHARLEY TOPPING & SONS, INC. has Identified the following known barriers to participation by disadvantaged subcontractors, before describing its proposed affirmative action methods: 1. Lack of qualified disadvantaged subcontractors In our specific geographical areas of work; 2. Lack of certified disadvantaged subcontractors who seek to perform Florida Department of Transportation work; 3. Lack of Interest in performing on Florida Department of Transportation contracts; 4. Lack of response when requested to bid; 5. Limited knowledge of Florida Department of Transportation plans and specifications to prepare a responsible bid. In view of the barrierSUt•bnes stated above, it shall be the policy of to provide optunity by utilizing th affirmative action methods to ensure participation on the contracts with the Florida Depart ent of Transportationfollowing will: 1. Provide written notice to all certified DBE subcontractors in the geographical area where the work is to be subcontracted by the Company; 2. Advertise in minority focused media concerning subcontract opportunities with the Company; 3. Select portions of work to be performed by DBEs in order to increase the likelihood of meeting contract goals (including, where appropriate, breaking down contracts into economically feasible units to facilitate DBE participation); 275-030-118 EQUAL OPPORTUNITY OFFICE 02108 Page 3 o/ 3 4. Provide adequate information about the plans, specifications, and requirements of the contract, not rejecting subcontractors without sound reasons based on a thorough investigation of their capabilities; 5. Waive requirements of performance bonds where it Is practical to do so; 6. Attend pre -bid meetings held by the Florida Department of Transportation to apprise disadvantaged subcontractors of opportunities with the Company; 7. Follow up on initial solicitations of interest to DBE subcontractors to determine with certainty whether the DBE company is interested in the subcontract opportunity. CHARLEY TOPPING & SONS, INC. understands that this list of affirmative action methods Is not exhaustive and will include additional approaches after having established familiarity with the disadvantaged subcontracting community and/or determined the stated approaches to be ineffective. III. IMPLEMENTATION CHARLEY TOrVINO & SJNS, INC. On contracts with specific DBE goals, will make every effort to meet contract goals as stated by utilizing its affirmative action methods. On projects with no specific goals, the Company will, as an expression of good faith, seek to utilize DBE subcontractors where work is to be subcontracted. IV. REPORTING CHARLEY TOPPIN9 &SONS, INC. shall keep and maintain such records as are necessary to determine the Company's compliance with its DBE Affirmative Action Plan. The Company will design its record keeping system to indicate: 1.

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

Race neutral means that FDOT does not assign individual goals to each project, but it attempts to achieve the goal through the normal competitive procurement process. To achieve this goal FDOT encourages contractors to obtain bids from Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises. This DBE availability goal percentage is not a mandatory contract specification, but it is a guide to inform the contractor of the work that could reasonably be contracted to a DBE. For this project, Monroe County will comply with the guidelines of Florida's Department of Transportation Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program, adopt the FDOT DBE availability goal of 8.1 %, and encourage contractors to obtain bids from Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises to meet the 8.1 % DBE availability goal. The DBE availability goal is not a mandatory contract specification, but is a guide to inform the contractor of the work that could reasonably be contracted to a DBE. CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS General: Prior to award of the Contract, have an approved DBE Affirmative Action Program Plan filed with the Equal Opportunity Office. Update and resubmit the plan every three years. No Contract will be awarded until the Department approves the Plan. The DBE Affirmative Action Program Plan and commitment to carry out the Plan must be incorporated into and become a part of the awarded Contract. Failure to keep these commitments will be deemed noncompliance with these Specifications and a breach of the Contract. Take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that FDOT Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises, as defined in 49 CFR Part 26 and DOT Rule Chapter 14-78, have the opportunity to participate in, compete for and perform subcontracts. Do not discriminate on the basis of age, race, color, religion, national origin, sex or disability in the award and performance of DOT assisted Contracts. Plan Requirements: Include the following in the DBE Affirmative Action Program Plan: A, A policy statement, expressing a commitment to use DBEs in all aspects of contracting to the maximum extent feasible. The policy making body must issue a policy statement signed by the chairperson, which expresses its commitment to utilize DBEs, outlines the various levels of responsibility, and states the objectives of the program. Circulate the policy statement throughout the Contractor's organization. B. The designation of a Liaison Officer within the Contractor's organization, as well as support staff, necessary and proper to administer the program, and a description of the authority, responsibility, and duties of the Liaison Officer and support staff. The Liaison Officer and staff are responsible for developing, managing, and implementing the program on a day-to-day basis for carrying out technical assistance activities for DBEs and for disseminating information on available business opportunities so that DBEs are provided an equitable opportunity to participate in Contracts let by the Department. Use techniques to facilitate DBE participation in contracting activities which include, but are not limited to: 1. Soliciting price quotations and arranging a time for the review of plans, quantities, specifications, and delivery schedules, and for the preparation and presentation of quotations. 2. Providing assistance to DBEs in overcoming barriers such as the inability to obtain bonding, financing, or technical assistance. 3. Carrying out information and communication programs or workshops on contracting procedures and specific contracting opportunities in a timely manner, with such programs being bilingual where appropriate. 4. Encouraging eligible DBEs to apply for certification with the Department. 08/05/09 BID PROPOSAL 00110-16 Palm Drive Bridge Repair Proiect 5. Contacting Minority Contractor Associations and city and county agencies with programs for disadvantaged individuals for assistance in recruiting and encouraging eligible DBE contractors to apply for certification with the Department. DBE Records and Reports: Submit the Anticipated DBE Participation Statement at or before the Pre - Construction Conference. Report monthly, through the Equal Opportunity Reporting System on the Department's Website, actual payments, retainage, minority status, and work type of all subcontractors and major suppliers. The Equal Opportunity Office will provide instructions on accessing this system. Develop a record keeping system to monitor DBE affirmative action efforts which include the following: A. The procedures adopted to comply with these Specifications; B. The number of subordinated Contracts on Department projects awarded to DBEs; C. The dollar value of the Contracts awarded to DBEs; D. The percentage of the dollar value of all subordinated Contracts awarded to DBEs as a percentage of the total Contract amount; E. A description of the general categories of Contracts awarded to DBEs; and F. The specific efforts employed to identify and award Contracts to DBEs. Upon request, provide the records to the Department for review. All such records are required to be maintained for a period of five years following acceptance of final payment and have them available for inspection by the Department and the Federal Highway Administration.

The Equal Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications set forth under 41 CFR 604.3 and the provisions of the American Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR 35 and 29 CFR 1630 are incorporated by reference in this Contract. In the execution of this Contract, the Contractor agrees to comply with the following minimum specific requirement activities of EEO: A. The Contractor will work with Monroe County, 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 pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship, pre - apprenticeship, and/or on-the-job training." EEO Officer: The Contractor will designate and make known to Monroe County, 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. 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. 08/05/09 BID PROPOSAL 00110-18 Palm Drive Bridge Repair Project 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. 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 has 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. 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 08/05/09 BID PROPOSAL 00110-19 Palm Drive Bridge Repair Proiect indicates that the discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant, such corrective action shall include such other persons. Upon completion of each investigation, the Contractor will inform every complainant of all of his avenues of appeal. 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, i.e., 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. Unions: If the Contractor rclics in wholc or in part upon unions as a sourcc of cmployccs, 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 Monroe County and 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 08/05/09 BID PROPOSAL 00110-20 Palm Drive Bridge Repair Protect 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 Specifications, such Contractor shall immediately notify the SHA. 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.

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. 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 3 years following completion of the Contract work and shall be available at reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized representatives of Monroe County, the SHA and the FHWA. 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 Monroe County and 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 08/05/09 BID PROPOSAL 00110-21 Palm Drive Bridge Repair Project information is to be reported on Form FHWA-1391.
