Documents.

ARTICLE 5

Management, and upon approval for payment issued by the Director of Project Management
and Architect, the Owner shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Sum to the
Contractor as provided below and elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
5.2 The period covered by each Application for payment shall be one (1) calendar month ending on
the last day of the month.
5.3 Payment will be made by the Owner, upon receipt of a proper invoice from the Contractor, in
accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt Payment Act (Section 218.735, Florida
Statutes) and Monroe County Code. The Contractor is to submit to the Owner invoices with

Page 3 of 36
2250

certificate will be provided by the Owner upon request.
5.4 Each Application for Payment shall be based upon the Schedule of Values submitted by the
Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Schedule of Values shall allocate
the entire Contract Sum among the various portions of the Work and be prepared in such form

five percent (5%). Pending final determination of cost to the Owner of changes in the Work,
amounts not in dispute may be included in Applications for Payment. The amount of credit to be
allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change which results in a net decrease
in the Contract Sum shall be the net cost to the Owner, less Overhead, Profit and Documented
Costs incurred prior to the change Request, as indicated in the corresponding line item in the
Approved Schedule of Values for that line item as confirmed by the Director of Project
Management. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are
involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of net
increase, if any, with respect to that change.
5.6.2 Add that portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable to materials and equipment delivered
and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the completed construction (or, if
approved in advance by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in
writing), less retainage;
5.6.3 Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by the Owner; and
5.6.4 Subtract amounts, if any, for which the Director of Project Management has withheld or nullified
a Certificate for Payment as provided in Paragraph 9.5 of the General Conditions.
5.7 The progress payment amount determined in accordance with Paragraph 5.6 shall be further
modified under the following circumstances:
5.7.1 Add, upon Substantial Completion of the Work, a sum sufficient to increase the total payments
to Ninety-five percent (95%) of the Contract Sum, less such an amount equal to 150 percent
(150%) of the estimated cost to complete the items in accordance with Subparagraph 9.8.2 of
the General Conditions as the Owner recommends and determines for incomplete Work and
unsettled claims, including the assessment of liquidated damages; and
5.7.2 Within 20 business days after the list of incomplete Work is created, the Owner must pay the
Contractor the remaining Contract Sum that includes all retainages previously withheld by the
Page 4 of 36
2251
Owner less an amount equal to 150 percent (150%) of the estimated cost to complete the
incomplete Work (i.e., "punch" list items).

any additional amounts payable in accordance with Subparagraph 9.10.3 of the General
Conditions.

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 it
has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be
provided, advising the said labor union or workers' representative of the contractor's

by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to
ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
7. In the event of the Contractor's non-compliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of
this contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be
canceled, terminated or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be
declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction

order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.

order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued
pursuant to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such
provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The 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 non-
compliance; 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 Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. §§3141-3144, and §§3146-3148) as supplemented by
Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5, "Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to
Contracts Covering Federally Financed and Assisted Construction"). In accordance with the
statute, contractors must be required to pay wages to laborers and mechanics at a rate not less
than the prevailing wages specified in a wage determination made by the Secretary of Labor. In
addition, contractors must be required to pay wages not less than once a week. If applicable,
the County must place a current prevailing wage determination issued by the Department of
Labor in each solicitation, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and made a part
Page 16 of 36
2263
hereof. The decision to award a contract or subcontract must be conditioned upon the
acceptance of the wage determination. The COUNTY must report all suspected or reported
violations to the Federal awarding agency.
When required by Federal program legislation, which includes Emergency Management
Preparedness Grant Program, Homeland Security Grant Program, Nonprofit Security Grant
Program, Tribal Homeland Security Grant Program, Port Security Grant Program and Transit
Security Grant Program (it does not apply to other FEMA grant and cooperative agreement
programs, including the Public Assistance Program), the contractors, in contracts for
construction or repair work above$2,000 in situations where the Davis-Bacon also applies, must
also comply with the Copeland "Anti-Kickback" Act (40 U.S.C. § 3145), as supplemented by
Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 3, "Contractors and Subcontractors on Public
Building or Public Work Financed in Whole or in Part by Loans or Grants from the United
States"). As required by the Act, each contractor or subrecipient is prohibited from inducing, by
any means, any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to

report all suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency.
(1) Contractor. The contractor shall comply with 18 U.S.C. § 874, 40 U.S.C. § 3145, and
the requirements of 29 C.F.R. Part 3 as may be applicable, which are incorporated by
reference into this contract.
(2) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the
clause above and such other clauses as FEMA may by appropriate instructions
require, and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any
lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance
by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all of these contract clauses.
(3) Breach. A breach of the contract clauses above may be grounds for termination of
the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and subcontractor as provided in 29
C.F.R. § 5.12.
Additionally, in accordance with the regulation, each contractor and subcontractor must furnish
each week a statement with respect to the wages paid each of its employees engaged in work
covered by the Copeland Anti-Kickback Act and the Davis Bacon Act during the preceding
weekly payroll period. The report shall be delivered by the contractor or subcontractor, within
seven days after the regular payment date of the payroll period, to a representative of a Federal
or State agency in charge at the site of the building or work.
7.8.2 Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. �W01-3708). Where applicable,
which includes all FEMA grant and cooperative agreement programs, all contracts awarded by

(29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 U.S.C. §3702 of the Act, each CONTRACTOR must compute the
wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours. Work
in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at
a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess
of 40 hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. 3704 are applicable to construction
Page 17 of 36
2264
work and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under
working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous. These requirements do not
apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the open
market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence.

part of the contract work, which may require or involve the employment of
laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic
in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in
excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic
receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the
basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such
workweek.
(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any
violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, the
Contractor and any subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the
unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable
to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District
of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated
Damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each
individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in
violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, in the sum
of $27 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or
permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without
payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph
(b)(1) of 29 C.F.R. §5.5.
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The Federal agency

contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide
employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours
they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year .
Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their
own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including
preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is
like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other
health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons

---------------------------------------------------------------
The body of each wage determination lists the classification
and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the
cited type (s) of construction in the area covered by the wage
determination . The classifications are listed in alphabetical
order of ""identifiers" " that indicate whether the particular
rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local) ,
a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate
(weighted union average rate) .
Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed
in dotted lines beginning with characters other than ""SU"" or
" "UAVG" " denotes that the union classification and rate were
prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example :
PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014 . PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of
the union which prevailed in the survey for this
classification, which in this example would be Plumbers . 0198
indicates the local union number or district council number
where applicable, i . e . , Plumbers Local 0198 . The next number,
005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing
the wage determination . 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the
most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1,
2014 .
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate
changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing
this classification and rate .
Survey Rate Identifiers
Page 33 of 36
2280
Classifications listed under the ""SU"" identifier indicate
that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the
survey and the published rate is derived by computing a
weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the
survey for that classification . As this weighted average rate
includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both
union and non-union rates . Example : SULA2012-007 5/13/2014 . SU
indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted
average calculation of rates and are not majority rates . LA
indicates the State of Louisiana . 2012 is the year of survey on
which these classifications and rates are based. The next
number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in
producing the wage determination . 5/13/2014 indicates the
survey completion date for the classifications and rates under
that identifier .
Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a
new survey is conducted.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
Classification (s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate
that no single majority rate prevailed for those
classifications; however, 1000 of the data reported for the
classifications was union data . EXAMPLE : UAVG-OH-0010
08/29/2014 . UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union
average rate . OH indicates the state . The next number, 0010 in
the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage
determination . 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date
for the classifications and rates under that identifier .
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of
each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current
negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is
based.
