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) (ii)).

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.

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

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, 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, 100% 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.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

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

* an existing published wage determination

* a survey underlying a wage determination

* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter

* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling

On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour

National Office because National Office has responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.

With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:

Branch of Construction Wage Determinations

Wage and Hour Division

U.S. Department of Labor

200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour

Administrator

(See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write 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 by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue.

3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative

Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:

Administrative Review Board

U.S. Department of Labor

4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.

END OF GENERAL DECISION"

II. Prices

II.A. Basis of Pricing

(1) Contract Prices. All Contract prices set forth in this Section include all costs necessary to complete the work for which the price is established (e.g., Base Contract, Unit Price, Options) in accordance with the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, the cost of work performed by subcontractors and consultants, indirect costs, fees, expenses, taxes, and profit.

(2) Knowledge of Conditions Affecting Price. FAR 52.236-3, Site Investigations and Conditions Affecting the Work, is incorporated by reference in this Contract. The Contractor shall be presumed to have established all prices with knowledge of general and local conditions that may affect the cost of Contract performance at the site where the Work is to be performed, to the extent that such information is reasonably obtainable.

(3) Unit Prices and Allowances. If any portion of the Work is to be performed on a unit price basis, the Unit Price shall include all costs of coordinating and incorporating the unit-priced portion of the Work into the Base Contract Work. The Contractor shall only be obligated to perform unit-priced work to the extent that an Allowance has been established. The Contractor shall be obligated to perform such work in excess of a unit quantity for which an Allowance is established only if directed by the Contracting Officer in writing. The Contractor shall be bound to the unit price or prices set forth herein in all equitable adjustments for changes including unit priced work, and no markups shall be applied to such unit prices.

(4) Options. If any portion of the Work is to be performed upon the timely exercise of an Option, the Option Price shall include all costs of coordinating and incorporating the Option-priced portion of the Work into the Base Contract Work. An adjustment to the Contract price for such additional work shall be computed solely on the basis of the Option price or prices set forth herein. Unless otherwise specified, all options may be exercised within 90 days of Contract award.

(5) Bid Rates. If this Contract includes Bid Rates to be used in determination of equitable adjustments (e.g., overhead, profit, daily rates for time-related costs), such rates shall be deemed to include all costs recoverable as components of an equitable adjustment consistent with the requirements, definitions, and exclusions applicable to equitable adjustments set forth in this Contract, and consistent with the Contractor's cost accounting practices. Unless otherwise specified, the bid rates shall be deemed to include only the Contractor's costs, and not the costs of any subcontractors.

II.B. Contract Price Form

Please use SF 1442 and attach price breakdown of offer on separate document.

III. Terms and Conditions

III.A. Commencement, Prosecution, and Completion of Work

FAR 52.211-10, Commencement, Prosecution, and Completion of Work and GSAR 552.211-10, Commencement, Prosecution and Completion of Work is supplemented as follows:

The Contractor shall diligently prosecute the Work so as to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work, as defined in GSAR 552.211-70 Substantial Completion (Mar 2019) and the time specified in Section I (Project Information), “Period of Performance” clause. If the Contract specifies different completion dates for different phases or portions of the Work, the Contractor shall diligently prosecute the Work so as to achieve Substantial Completion of such phases or portions of the Work within the times specified.

III.B. Contractor Responsibilities

GSAR 552.236-71, Contractor Responsibilities is located in Section IV.A. of this Agreement and is supplemented as follows:

(1) The Contractor shall secure and pay for all necessary permits and governmental fees, licenses, and inspections that are customarily secured after award of the Contract and that are legally required at the time of award. The Contractor shall provide a copy of the permits required for execution of the work to the Contracting Officer prior to commencement of any related work.

III.C. Material and Workmanship

All equipment, material, and articles incorporated into the Work shall be new and of the most suitable grade for the purpose intended, unless otherwise specified in this Contract. References in the specifications to equipment, material, articles, or patented processes by trade name, make, or catalog number shall be regarded as establishing a standard of quality and performance and shall not be construed as limiting competition.

Unless specifically directed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor may use any equipment, material, article, or process that is equal to that named in the specifications, so long as it is of comparable quality and meets specified characteristics, or, if no such characteristics are specified, the relevant performance characteristics of the specified item.

III.D. Project Schedule

(1) The Project Schedule shall be a rational, reasonable and realistic plan for completing the Work, and conform to requirements specified in this clause and elsewhere in this Contract.

(2) The Contractor understands and acknowledges that the preparation and proper management of the Project Schedule is a material component of the Work, and that the Contract price includes all costs of compliance with Project Schedule requirements.

(3) The Project Schedule shall depict all major activities necessary to complete the Work.

(4) Prior to NTP, the Contractor shall submit its Project Schedule to the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall submit the Project Schedule in PDF and hardcopy print format.

(5) The Project Schedule shall incorporate both major tasks as well as milestone events specified in the Contract, including, as applicable, NTP, Substantial Completion, and milestones related to specified work phases and site restrictions. The Project Schedule shall also include Contractor-defined milestones to identify target dates for critical events, based upon the Contractor's chosen sequence of work and be linked to the tasks that drive those milestones.

(6) Unless a shorter period for updates is specified elsewhere, the Contractor shall update the Project Schedule weekly to reflect its actual progress in completing the Work, and submit the updated Project Schedule to the Contracting Officer.

(7) If the Contractor revises the Project Schedule after initial submission, the Contractor shall provide in writing to the Contracting Officer a narrative describing the substance of the revision, the rationale for the revision, and the impact of the revision on the projected substantial completion date.

(8) If at any time the Contracting Officer finds that the Project Schedule does not comply with any Contract requirement, the Contractor shall, upon written notice of exceptions taken by the Contracting Officer, revise the Project Schedule, adjust activity progress, or provide sufficient information demonstrating compliance.

(9) If the Contractor fails to sufficiently address the Contracting Officer's exceptions to the Project Schedule within 10 calendar days of written notice of same, the Contracting Officer may withhold retainage until the Project is Substantially Complete or until such time as the Contractor has complied with Project Schedule requirements.

(10) The Contracting Officer shall be entitled, but not required, to rely upon the Project Schedule to evaluate the Contractor's progress, evaluate entitlement to extensions of time, and determine the criticality or float of any activities described in such Project Schedule.

III.E. Interpretation of Specifications and Drawings

(1) The specifications and drawings shall be interpreted to complement each other. Requirements set forth in the specifications and not shown on the drawings, or shown on the drawings and not set forth in the specifications, shall be of like effect as if shown or set forth in both.

(2) Different requirements within the Contract Documents shall be deemed inconsistent only if compliance with both cannot be achieved.

(3) If a requirement set forth in one location is more restrictive than that set forth elsewhere in the Contract Documents, requirements set forth in specifications shall govern over requirements set forth in drawings; otherwise, the more restrictive shall govern.

(4) In case of inconsistent requirements within the drawings, the following order of precedence shall apply:

(a) Requirements indicated in large-scale drawings shall govern over inconsistent requirements indicated in small-scale drawings.

(b) Requirements indicated in schedules shall govern over inconsistent information shown in drawings.

(5) Unless otherwise noted, the drawings shall be interpreted to provide for a complete construction, assembly, or installation of the Work, without regard to the detail with which material components are shown in the drawings.

(6) If any inconsistency within the drawings or specifications cannot be reconciled by reference to this clause, the Contractor shall promptly request a determination from the Contracting Officer as to which requirement shall govern. Election by the Contractor to follow either requirement without a determination from the Contracting Officer shall be at the Contractor's risk; should the Contracting Officer subsequently determine that the requirement not followed by the Contractor governs, the Contractor shall be responsible for all cost and time required to comply with the Contracting Officer's determination.

III.F. Submittals

(1) The Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Contracting Officer shop drawings, samples, calculations, product information, mockups, GSA Form 184 (associated 184A and 184B as necessary) and other submittals (collectively, "submittals") demonstrating compliance with Contract requirements for all Work components as specified elsewhere in this Contract. If particular submittal requirements are not specified for a component of the Work, the Contractor shall prepare submittals for such Work as directed by the Contracting Officer.

(2) Prior to submission, the Contractor shall review all submittals for accuracy, completeness, compliance with Contract requirements, and coordination between different trades and subcontractors. The Contractor shall indicate its approval on all submittals as evidence of such review and coordination. Submittals submitted to the Contracting Officer without evidence of the Contractor’s approval may be rejected without further review.

(3) The Contractor shall not proceed with work or procure products or materials described or shown in submittals until the Contracting Officer has indicated approval of the submittal. If the Contracting Officer disapproves of a submittal, the Contractor shall be entitled to an explanation of the reasons for disapproval.

Any work or activity undertaken prior to approval shall be at the Contractor’s risk; should the Contracting Officer subsequently determine that the work or activity does not comply with the Contract, the Contractor shall be responsible for all cost and time required to comply with the Contracting Officer's determination. The Contracting Officer shall have the right to order the Contractor to cease execution of work for which submittals have not been approved. The Government shall not be liable for any cost or delay incurred by the Contractor attributable to the proper exercise of this right.

(4) Approval by the Contracting Officer of any submittal required under this Contract shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for any errors or omissions in such submittals, or from responsibility for complying with the requirements of this Contract, except with respect to variations described and approved as changes in accordance with the following Paragraph (5).

(5) The Contractor shall be entitled to rely upon approval of submittals containing variations from the requirements of the Contract as a change to the Contract only if the Contractor separately requests approval of the variation at the time of submission and the Contracting Officer has approved the request for variation. Such requests shall fully describe the substance of the variation reflected in the Contractor's submittal. This provision shall not be interpreted as limiting the right of the Government to treat non-conforming work as a change where the Contractor has failed to request a variation in accordance with this paragraph.

(6) The Contractor shall be entitled to receive notice of action on submittals within a reasonable time, given the volume or complexity of the submittals and the criticality of the affected activities to Substantial Completion. The Contractor shall not be entitled to receive notice of action on submittals containing variations from Contract requirements in less than twenty working day.

for all Work components as specified elsewhere in this Contract.

III.G. Government’s Right to Stop Work for Non-Compliance

If the Contractor, after receiving written notice from the Contracting Officer of non-compliance with any requirement of this Contract, fails to promptly initiate action to achieve compliance within a reasonable time, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to order the Contractor to stop work under the Contract until the Contractor has complied. The Contractor shall not be entitled to any extension of Contract time or payment for any costs incurred as a result of being ordered to stop work for such cause.

Possession of this right by the Contracting Officer shall not relieve the Contractor of its obligation to comply with the Contract, regardless of whether this right is exercised.

III.H. Other Contracts

The Government may enter into other contracts to be performed at the Project site including, but not limited to, construction management services. The Contractor shall not impede site access for these other contractors and shall notify GSA immediately if the activities of other contractors interfere with performance of the Contract.

III.I. Use and Possession Prior to Substantial Completion

Upon notice by the Contracting Officer, the Government shall have the right to take possession of, use, or operate with Government employees or other contractors, any completed or partially completed part of the Work prior to Substantial Completion. Exercise by the Government of the right shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for completing any unfinished components of the Work.

III.J. Finality of Contract Modifications

As set forth elsewhere in this Contract, the Contractor is entitled to additional consideration under certain conditions, including the issuance of change orders. It is the Contractor's duty to include in proposals for equitable adjustment or other consideration all compensation to which it may be entitled, including cost and time.

Unless otherwise explicitly stated in a modification to the Contract providing such consideration, adjustments to the Contract price or time agreed upon therein shall be deemed to provide all compensation to which the Contractor is entitled, and shall constitute final settlement of the Contractor's entitlement to compensation on account of the change or other condition giving rise to the modification.

III.K. Liquidated Damages

The Contractor acknowledges that time is of the essence for the performance of the Work, and that determining actual damages from delay would be extremely difficult and impractical. If the Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work in accordance with FAR 52.211-12, Liquidated Damages and GSAR 552.211-12, Liquidated Damages and the time specified in this Contract, the Contractor shall be liable to the Government for liquidated damages at the rate specified in Section I (Project Information), paragraph entitled, “Liquidated Damages Rate,” for each calendar day following the required completion date that the Work is not Substantially…
