MASTER CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS (PG-18-1) - Office of Construction & Facilities

Management (va.gov)

Please see VA Construction Specification for EPDM Roofing - Section 07 53 23 for additional information

WRITTEN SCOPE OF WORK:

1) Building 16 is a newer EPDM type roof. However, the seals around the scuppers have failed and need resealing/repairs. The roof itself is in good shape. Additionally, when this new roof was installed several years ago, the contractor bent up all the copper metal cap/flashing under the stonework. This flashing needs to be bent back into shape and all the copper metal seams need sealing.

2) Building 76 is a very old EPDM roof. This is the roof directly above the elevator equipment room for Building 76. This roof has a large missing area of roofing in the middle area and needs patching (large target patch). Additionally, all around the edges of this roof attention and sealing is needed. This roof will be considered for full replacement, but this repair work (target patch and edge sealing) is the immediate need.

3) Building 14 is an EPDM roof. This roof received a lot of repair work recently; however, we still have a few leaks in this roof. This roof needs to be carefully looked at once again. FMS will assist with identifying the locations of the remaining active leaks.

4) Building 15 is an EPDM roof. This roof received a lot of repair work recently; however, we still have a few leaks in this roof. This roof needs to be carefully looked at once again. FMS will assist with identifying the locations of the remaining active leaks. ahead of other work included in this scope of work when the awarded contractor arrives on station.

January 23rd, 2025

5) Building 2A is an EPDM roof. We have an active leak along the wall over the ambulance entrance. This needs to be inspected and repaired.

6) The tunnel between building 10 and building 11 has an active leak. This needs to be inspected and repaired.

7) Building 4 (lower) is a TPO roof over the main kitchen for the Salem VA Medical center.

This roof has leaks around various roof penetrations and all around the edge of the roof where the termination bars are and the counter flashing. This needs to be inspected and repaired.

8) Building 4 (upper) is a ballasted EPDM roof. This roof has several roof leaks that need inspection and repair. Additionally, the metal edging around the peri miter of the building needs to be resecured and sealed.

9) Building 143 lobby transom area is an EPDM roof. There are several roof leaks along the glass transom over the main lobby. The length of this glass transom needs to be inspected and repaired along the termination bars and counterflashing.

10) The lower roof of Building 13 (old chiller plant) is a ballasted EPDM roof. This roof has damage from a recent windstorm and needs two large target patches (6’ x 6’) and additional inspection and repairs.

11. The damaged metal siding of Building 13 at the Salem VA Medical Center. Presently, there is an area of siding that has blown off the building leaving a large open exposed area.

Immediately inside the area exposed is electrical equipment that is tarped to keep any water off. The opening, because of the wind damage, is also tarped as a temporary protective measure. Contractor shall remove or trim any existing vertical metal siding as necessary to facilitate a nice, professional and workmanship like fit for new vertical siding. Seams shall be caulked as appropriate to provide the best possible waterproof surface as able. The replacement panels of metal siding shall be fabricated to match existing as closely as possible. The intent is that once repairs are complete, the average viewer will not be able to perceive that any repairs have taken place. This is to preserve the historicity of our buildings. Additionally, the contractor shall include labor, equipment and materials needed to install additional screws around the existing metal siding to better secure the remaining existing metal siding against any future windstorm damage. The Roofing Contractor will be responsible for disposing of all trash and debris off station.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick

Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the

Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this 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 resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the

EO

is available at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses

(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).

The body of each wage determination lists the classifications and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the type(s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate), a survey rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a supplemental classification rate.

Union Rate Identifiers

A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than

""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024. PLUM is an identifier of the union whose collectively bargained rate 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. The date, 07/01/2024 in the example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes over time that are reported to WHD in the rates in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the classification.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE:

UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of

Ohio.

The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024 in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was updated to reflect the most current union average rate.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in

January, to reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based.

Survey Rate Identifiers

The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-

6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the year of the 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. The date, 6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6(c)(1).

State Adopted Rate Identifiers

The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007

01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted.

ME

refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the state completed the survey on which the listed classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination.

The date, 01/03/2024 in the example, reflects the date on which the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took effect under state law in the state from which the rates were adopted.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:

a) a survey underlying a wage determination

b) an existing published wage determination

c) an initial WHD letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

d) an initial conformance (additional classification and rate) determination

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be directed to the WHD

Branch of Wage Surveys. Requests can be submitted via email to davisbaconinfo@dol.gov or by mail to:

Branch of Wage Surveys

Wage and Hour Division

U.S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

U.S. Department of Labor

2) If an initial decision has been issued, then any interested party (those affected by the action) that disagrees with the decision can request review and reconsideration from the

Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part

7).

Requests for review and reconsideration can be submitted via email to dba.reconsideration@dol.gov or by mail to:

Wage and Hour Administrator

U.S. Department of Labor

The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.)

that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

(3) If the Government determines that a particular exception requested in accordance with paragraph (c) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 does not apply, the Government will evaluate only those offers based on use of the equivalent domestic construction material, and the offeror shall be required to furnish such domestic construction material.
