The prospective contractor 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 contractor to furnish a certification or an explanation shall disqualify such person from participation in this transaction.

If it is later determined that the contractor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government the department may terminate this transaction for cause or default.

4. The prospective contractor shall provide immediate written notice to the department to whom this proposal is submitted if at any time the prospective contractor learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

5.

10. Except for transactions authorized under paragraph 6 of these instructions, if a contractor in a covered transaction knowingly enters into a lower tier covered transaction with a person who is suspended, debarred, ineligible or voluntarily excluded from participation in this transaction, in addition to other remedies available to the Federal Government, the department may terminate this transaction for cause or default.

Protection of Endangered Bats Federally protected bats have the potential to inhabit the project limits because they roost in trees, bridges, culverts, and other structures. Roosts may not have been observed on this project, but conditions to support the species exist. The species and all active roosts are protected by the federal Endangered Species Act. If an individual bat or active roost is encountered during construction operations, stop work, and notify the engineer and the WisDOT Regional Environmental Coordinator

(REC).

Ensure all operators, employees, and subcontractors working in areas of known or presumed bat habitat are aware of environmental commitments and avoidance and minimization measures (AMMs) to protect both bats and their habitat.

Direct temporary lighting, if used, away from wooded areas during the bat active season April 15 to October 31, both dates inclusive.

Tree Clearing:

Tree clearing is limited to that which is specified in the plans. Contractor means and methods to remove additional trees will not be allowed. If it is determined that additional trees with a 3-inch or greater diameter at breast height (dbh) need to be removed beyond contractor means and methods, notify the engineer to coordinate with the WisDOT REC to determine if consultation with United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is required. The contractor must be aware that the WisDOT REC and/or USFWS may not permit modifications.

Submit a schedule and description of clearing operations with the ECIP 14 days prior to any clearing operations. The department will determine, based on schedule and scope of work, what additional erosion control measures shall be implemented prior to the start of clearing operations, and list those additional measures in the ECIP.

Climbing Turtle General

Turtles are known to inhabit Red Cedar River and Wilson Creek, and suitable habitat exists within 1,000 ft of that location. It is assumed turtles are present at or near the project site during construction.

When within 1,000 ft of Red Cedar River, Sta 158+00, and Wilson Creek, Sta 24+00, use the following erosion mat types as shown on the plans or directed by the engineer, to minimize animal entrapment:

Erosion Mat Urban Class I Type A Erosion Mat Urban Class I Type B Erosion Mat Class II Type C

Furnish mat of these classes from the WisDOT Erosion Control Product Acceptability List (PAL).

Nesting Habitat

No ground disturbance, heavy equipment operation or supply/equipment storage shall occur within 200 ft of the Red Cedar River, Station 158+00 to 164+00, or Wilson Creek, Station 23+00 to 24+50 during the turtle nesting season from May 20 to September 18, both dates inclusive, unless exclusion fencing has been installed prior to May 20 to keep turtles from entering the work area. Install and/or maintain exclusion fencing in accordance with the Turtle Exclusion Fencing, Climbing Turtle bid item included in the contract.

Installation of exclusion fencing from May 20 to September 18 is not allowed, even if a turtle survey is conducted, as it must be assumed that turtles have established nests as of May 20. A survey is not sufficient to identify established nests, resulting in potential egg mortality. Adjustment of these dates will not be considered.

1020-05-63, 1021-01-78 6 of 61 sufficient to identify established nests, resulting in potential egg mortality. Adjustment of these dates will not be considered.

Overwintering Habitat

There shall be no in-water disturbance or drawdowns of the Red Cedar River or Wilson Creek during the turtle overwintering period. The overwintering period runs from October 1 to April 30, both dates inclusive.

Requests for date adjustments will only be considered if they coincide with WDNR’s weather-dependent activity periods found at this link: https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/Wildlifehabitat/HerpRegulations. Submit requests to the engineer for approval. The engineer will consult with the WDNR Endangered Resources Liaison, Stacy Rowe. Other date adjustment requests will not be approved.

In-water disturbance includes, but is not limited to, streambank/rip rap installation, ford installations, open cut trenching, barge spudding, dredging, filling, and other in-water actions commonly associated with culvert replacement or maintenance, and bridge demolition or construction.

4. Lane Rental Fee Assessment.

A General The contract designates some lane closures to perform the work. The contractor will not incur a Lane Rental Fee Assessment for closing lanes during the allowable lane closure times. The contractor will incur a Lane Rental Fee Assessment for each lane closure outside of the allowable lane closure times. If a lane is obstructed at any time due to contractor operations, it is considered a closure. The purpose of lane rental is to enforce compliance of lane restrictions and discourage unnecessary closures.

The allowable lane closure times are shown in the Traffic article.

Submit the dates of the proposed lane, ramp, and roadway restrictions to the engineer as part of the progress schedule.

B Lane Rental Fee Assessment The Lane Rental Fee Assessment incurred for each lane closure, each ramp closure, and each full closure of a roadway, per direction of travel, is as follows:

- $4,000 per lane, per direction of travel, per hour broken into 15-minute increments

The Lane Rental Fee Assessment represents a portion of the cost of the interference and inconvenience to the road users for each closure. All lane, roadway, or ramp closure event increments 15 minutes and less will be assessed as a 15-minute increment.

The engineer, or designated representative, will be the sole authority in determining time period length for the Lane Rental Fee Assessment.

Lane Rental Fee Assessments will not be assessed for closures due to crashes, accidents, or emergencies not initiated by the contractor.

The department will assess Lane Rental Fee Assessment by the dollar under the administrative item Failing to Open Road to Traffic. The total dollar amount of Lane Rental Fee Assessment will be computed by multiplying the Lane Rental Assessment Rate by the number of 15-minute increments of each lane closure event as described above.

Lane Rental Fee Assessment will be in effect from the time of the Notice to Proceed until the department issues final acceptance. If interim completion time or contract time expires before the completion of specified work in the contract, additional liquidated damages will be assessed as specified in standard spec 108.11 or as specified within this contract.
