Prior to commencement of work, the Contracting Officer shall arrange for a meeting with the Contractor to discuss contract terms and conditions.

D. CONTRACT TIME

Estimated start time is March 01, 2010 and the completion date will be approximately March 20, 2010.

Start and end date is dependent on spring weather and ground conditions.

A work progress schedule will be requested within one week after the prework meeting.

II. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor shall furnish all necessary labor, subsistence, supervision, tools in good working condition, supplies, and equipment necessary to perform the work in accordance with specifications.

Contractor shall erect and maintain signs at the start of each segment to be plowed.

Contractor shall locate and protect all road signs, cattle guards, berm drains, bridges and other improvements. Contractor shall be responsible for any damage thereof.

The contractor shall leave 2 to 4 inches of snow on roads to help avoid damaging the road system.

Banks shall not be undercut nor shall gravel or other surfacing be bladed off the road.

Drainage ditches and culverts shall be kept functional.

Snow shall be removed from the full width of intersections and sharp turns. Over-width plowing shall be reshaped as necessary to define the usable width. Snowmobile routes may require leaving a shoulder to maintain snowmobile access.

Contractor shall space, construct, and maintain drainage holes in the dike of snow or berm caused by snow removal operations. Drainage holes will be constructed at least every 150 feet on level sections and at least every 75 feet on sloped sections, or as directed by the C.O.R. Drain holes shall be placed to obtain surface drainage without discharging on erosive fills.

Contractor shall remove snow from turnouts. Intruding windfalls, debris, or slough and slide material shall be removed for the full width of the traveled way and disposed of away from drainages at agreed upon locations.

Contractor shall conduct operations so as to plow from the ditch line side of the road across to the outside edge.

A minimum of 4" of snow shall be left on bridges. Grousers shall not cut surfacing of bridges. Bridge scuppers will be kept clear and may require some handwork.

The Lucky Project area along forest road 693 (Scriver Creek) will require special attention to maintain the integrity of bridges. Equipment heavier than a D7 dozer is unacceptable for the 693 road.

COMMERCIAL ITEM, EMMETT 2010 SNOW PLOWING Page 6 of 49

Contractor-Furnished Equipment

Track type crawler tractor with minimum fly wheel horsepower rating of 120 with hydraulic adjustable dozer and ROPS canopy. A rear mounted cable winch is recommended.

Contractor's Operators

Each operator shall have experience in the type of work to be accomplished under this contract and demonstrate journeyman proficiency in the operation of his tractor. The C.O.R. will inspect the work of the operator and shall be the judge of their demonstrated proficiency and acceptability. Operators found to be unacceptable will be replaced by the Contractor within 2 calendar days after receiving written notification thereof from the Contracting Officer.

Equipment Repairs

All repair and replacements are the responsibility of the Contractor and will be made at his expense. The Contractor will be responsible for making repairs and replacements within 2 calendar days after receiving notification that the repairs are necessary. If the Contractor cannot make the necessary repairs within 2 calendar days, he may, with the Contracting Officer's approval, provide substitute equipment meeting contract specifications.

Equipment Maintenance by Contractor

The Contractor shall furnish all fuel, oil, grease, and personnel necessary for the maintenance of the equipment.

Hazardous spills

The Contractor is responsible for all HAZARDOUS SPILLS from servicing or repairing equipment.

Delivery of Equipment

Availability of all equipment, complete and ready for operation, is required within 2 calendar days after receipt by the Contractor of the notice to proceed. Contractors must make their own arrangements and bear the cost of delivery of the tractors to the initial point of work and from the point of release at the end of the contract. The Contractor will arrange for and bear all costs of transporting the tractor between work sites during the course of the project.

The contractor will trailer the tractor as close as reasonably possible to the points where actual snow removal will begin on each project road system.

The C.O.R. or Inspector will establish the starting point for snow removal on each project road system.

Once snow removal begins at the established starting point the Contractor will be paid at the bid rate per mile no matter what the snow conditions are.

COMMERCIAL ITEM, EMMETT 2010 SNOW PLOWING Page 7 of 49

III. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

A. INSPECTIONS

Periodic inspections of the project areas will be conducted by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) or his designated inspectors to ensure compliance with the contract specifications.

A visual inspection by the COR or designated inspector will be made of each road segment to determine if the road has been cleared to contract specifications and no damage to the road or adjacent structures has occurred.

The Government has the right to inspect and test all services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work.

IV. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT

The snow removal project will consist of the actual miles of road surface cleared upon completion of the project and will require clearing approximately the number of miles listed under "total" in the Location and Description/Mileage chart (Section I-B). Actual ground and weather conditions in the project areas may increase or decrease the actual road miles to be cleared. The Government may increase or decrease the number of miles to be cleared in any or all projects prior to the start of clearing.

Actual miles cleared in each project will be summed to the nearest tenth mile. Payment will be made for the sum of the miles of the project areas. Miles of roads and road segments will be determined either from a Forest Service road log, a GPS unit with accuracy of +/- 30 feet, or from a reasonably accurate vehicle odometer. The length of roads and road segments cleared will be considered to be the length of the center line.

Payment will be made on the number of miles that are plowed, inspected and accepted as satisfactory.

Quantities shall be paid at the contract unit price.

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

HEALTH & WELFARE: $3.35 per hour or $134.00 per week or $580.66 per month

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor; 3 weeks after 5 years, and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor, wherever employed, and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173)

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of ten paid holidays per year, New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. (A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4174)

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b), this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541.

400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for

COMMERCIAL ITEM, EMMETT 2010 SNOW PLOWING Page 22 of 49 which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination.

Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of:

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications;

(2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications;

(3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am.

If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime (i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work).

HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL: An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordinance, explosives, and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of sensitive ordnance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash powder.

** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE **

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance:

COMMERCIAL ITEM, EMMETT 2010 SNOW PLOWING Page 23 of 49

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost), reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.
