Statement of Work

This project corrects road settlement issues by constructing a new retaining wall to replace the failing wall. The project is necessary to maintain safe public access to the Bee Rock campground to comply with the Highway Safety Act and correct non-point source soil erosion to comply with the Clean Water Act. The work will remove and replace the failing retaining wall at the site. The final wall type selected will be based on collected geotechnical data. The proposed wall type may be either gabion, mechanically stabilized earth, permanent ground anchor, reinforced concrete, soil nail, reinforced soil slopes, micropiles, or other wall systems. The design and implementation of the selected slide repair, including any proposed alternatives, shall be in accordance with the U.S. Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects FP-14, the USDA Forest Service Supplemental Specifications and roadway standards and the AASHTO Guidelines for Geometric Design of Very Low-Volume Local Roads.

The work will extend 250-ft each direction from the midpoint of failure along the centerline. The work on the fill slope (south side) of road will extend 75-ft from the centerline ending at toe of slope.

Roadway asphalt within this area shall be overlaid and any sub-base disturbed shall be reconstructed and asphalt 8-2-1 shall be laid. No work is planned on the cut slope (north side) of the road will extend up slope.

Fill will be imported from commercial rock quarries. Spoils will be hauled off-site and disposed of on private lands outside of the floodplain. Any stockpiling of materials will be done immediately adjacent to the roadway limits (i.e. along the flat shoulders and/or existing roadway).

Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall provide and pay for labor, materials, equipment, tools, transportation, and other facilities and services necessary for proper execution and completion of the Work.

Work is identified in the following documents.

FHWA Standard Specifications (FP-14) - Refer to Standard Specifications for Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects in conjunction with this document. FHWA Standard Specifications (FP-14) at the following website; Standard Specifications (FP-14) | FHWA (dot.gov)

Map of Bee Rock Campground

The Bee Rock Campground features camping units on both sides of the river. The Laurel County side is open all year. The Pulaski County side is open from mid-April through mid-October. An overlook along Bee Rock Trail provides a scenic view of the rocks and cliffs along Rockcastle River.

The Bee Rock Overlook presents a beautiful view of the rocks and cliffs along the Rockcastle River. The cliff known as Bee Rock was once hollow. Folk tales say that there were so many honey bees here that they darkened the skies. When the wild bees invaded local beehives, beekeepers dynamited the cliff and destroyed the hollow Bee Rock. According to local legend, there was so much honey that it flowed down the cliff and into the Rockcastle River.

The campground features Old Sublimity Bridge, a historic structure built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the late 1930s. The stone used in the abutments was quarried from the adjacent sandstone cliffs. The bridge has been restored for foot travel only.

Campfires are permitted in fire rings only. Make sure fires are out before retiring at night or when leaving your campsite.

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. 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

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, 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 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

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 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

Washington, DC 20210

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