(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and

(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.

(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.

(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1).

H001 STATE REGULATION OF FEDERAL CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

FAA contractors may encounter requests from State and local governments for FAA’s contractors to obtain building permits, zoning approval, sanitation approval, etc. Based on the “Supremacy Clause” set forth in Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution, construction contractors may not be required to obtain permits or approval from State or local governments for work done on federal contracts. However, State and local governments do have enforcement authority for safety and environmental protection as specified in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability (Superfund) Act (CERCLA), and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

Contractors who encounter attempts by State and local government entities to assess various types of fees, permits, or approvals are advised to inform the Contracting Officer immediately if the assessing entity attempts in any way to prevent or hinder the contractor at the job site.

(End of Clause)

H002 APPLICABLE MINIMUM HOURLY WAGE RATES

(a) The wage determination decision of the Secretary of Labor in this contract specifies the minimum hourly rate of wages which must be paid to the laborers and mechanics employed or work at the job site. The rates have been determined by the Secretary of Labor in accordance with the provisions of the Davis Bacon Act, as amended, to be prevailing rates for the corresponding classes of laborers employed on contracts of a similar character in the locality where the work is performed.

(b) While the wage rates given in the decision are the MINIMUM rates required to be paid during the life of the contract, it is the responsibility of offerors to inform themselves as to local labor conditions, such as the prevailing wage rates, the length of the work day and work week, overtime compensation, fringe benefits payments, available labor supply, and prospective changes or adjustments to wage rates. The contractor must abide by and conform to all applicable laws, Executive Orders, and rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor. No increase in contract price will be allowed or authorized for the payment of wage rates in excess of those listed in the contract wage determination decision.

(c) The wage determination decision of the Secretary of Labor in this contract is solely for the purpose of setting for the minimum hourly wage rates required to be paid during the life of the contract and is not to be accepted as a guarantee, warranty, or representation of the wage rates indicated.

NOTE: THE DAVIS BACON ACT IS APPLICABLE (SEE CONTRACT CLAUSES). REFERENCE THE

ATTACHED GENERAL WAGE DECISION NO. TX20220253, dated 02/25/2022, FOR THE STATE OF TEXAS (SEE SECTION “J”). THE WAGE DETERMINATION IS HEREBY INCORPORATED INTO THIS REQUEST

FOR OFFERS (RFO) AND WILL BE PART OF ANY RESULTANT CONTRACT.

Specifications reflect onsite construction work days/hours as Monday through Friday (M-F) 7:00am to 3:30pm, with an optional 4-day, 10-hour schedule (4-10) upon approval by Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). If an alternate 4-10 schedule is approved, the FAA may, at any time, require the contractor to revert back to the original M-F schedule.

(d) You must use care to prevent unnecessary damage to property in or near the work area caused by your work.

Unnecessary damage is that which you can avoid through efficient and careful performance of the work, taking into account the land rights you have. If you damage any property, you must at once notify the owner or custodian and make or arrange to make prompt and full restitution.

(e) Maps and specifications FAA (we, us) provides may not give the location of all water supply, drainage, irrigation, and other underground facilities. Before entering a tract of land for contract purposes, you must find out from the property owner (or other reasonably available source) the location of any irrigation system, domestic water system, source of water, and drainage system existing on the property, whether serving that property or other property. You must avoid damaging or obstructing these facilities or polluting water supplies.

(f) You must hold us harmless from any and all suits, actions, and claims for damages, including environmental impairment, to property arising from any of your acts or omissions, your subcontractors, or any of your employees or subcontractor employees, in any way related to the work or operations under this contract.

(g) You must indemnify and hold harmless the property owners or parties lawfully in possession against all claims or liabilities asserted by third parties, including all governmental agencies, resulting directly or indirectly from your wrongful or negligent acts or omissions.

To reduce these possible liabilities you must be fully aware of the hazards and regulatory requirements associated with the hazardous materials involved in this project. You must use qualified personnel to handle and transport hazardous materials.

(i) Before commencing work, you must:

(1) Do an environmental assessment of the work the contract requires, identifying tasks which involve using, handling or transporting hazardous materials or wastes. The following work items are known to involve such substances: No known hazardous materials, but may be encountered during project work.

(2) Submit an environmental plan identifying and dealing with each specific task involving the wastes. The plan must be specific enough to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the environmental risks and the appropriate

3.2.2.3-47 PERMITS AND RESPONSIBILITIES (JUL 2004)

method for dealing with them. The plan must also list the required permits and reference the regulations that govern the activities needed to deal with the materials or wastes.

(3) Meet with the CO's representatives during the preconstruction conference to discuss and to develop a mutual understanding on implementing the plan.

(4) The CO may require other tasks to be added to the plan. If the CO considers your planned methods for dealing with the risks insufficient, the CO may require you to revise the plan.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-52 USE AND POSSESSION BEFORE THE PROJECT IS COMPLETE (JUL 2004)

(a) FAA (we) may take possession of or use any completed or partially completed part of the work. Before taking possession of or using any work, the Contracting Officer (CO) will provide the Contractor (you) a list of work items you still need to do to correct those parts of the work that we intend to possess or use. However, you are still responsible for complying with the terms of the contract, even if the CO fails to list any work item. Just because we use or possess any work you produce under the contract does not necessarily mean we have accepted it.

(b) You are not responsible for loss or damage to work resulting from our use or possession, despite the terms of the clause in this contract entitled "Permits and Responsibilities." If our earlier possession or use delays the progress of the work or causes you additional expense, we will make an equitable adjustment in the contract price or extend the time you have to complete work, and will so modify the contract in writing.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-56 SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS (JUL 2004)

(a) The Contractor (you) must, within five days after the work on the contract starts or after another period determined by the Contracting Officer (CO), prepare and submit to the CO for approval three copies of a practicable schedule showing the order in which you propose to perform the work, and the dates you plan to start and finish the important stages of the work (including acquiring materials, plant, and equipment). The schedule must be in a progress chart of suitable scale to indicate appropriately the percentage of work scheduled for completion during the contract period. If you do not submit a schedule within the time prescribed, FAA (us) may withhold payments until you submit the schedule. If you fall behind your schedule, you must send a revised schedule with your next request for payment. Provide us additional schedules as soon as practicable if the CO requests them.

(b) With each payment request, submit a copy of the last schedule you submitted, annotated to show progress to date. If at any time, in the CO's opinion, you have fallen behind the schedule to an extent which would jeopardize timely completion, you must take steps to improve progress, including those the CO may require, to enable timely completion without additional cost to us. The CO may require you to increase the number of shifts, the amount of overtime, days of work each week, or the amount of constructor plant being used. You must submit any supplementary schedules the CO deems necessary to demonstrate how you will regain the rate of progress necessary for timely completion.

(c) If you fail to comply with the CO's requirements under this clause, the CO may determine that you are not performing the work with enough diligence to ensure completing it within the time the contract requires. If the CO makes this determination, the CO may terminate this contract for default.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-60 SPECIFICATIONS, DRAWINGS, AND MATERIAL OFFERS (MAR 2009) - ALTERNATE

II (JUL 2004)

(a) If either the specifications or the drawings (but not both) mention tasks, the Contractor (you) must assume that the tasks are in both. If the drawings and specifications differ, the specifications govern. If there is a discrepancy in the figures, in the drawings, or in the specifications, submit the matter promptly to the Contracting Officer (CO), who will promptly determine which governs, and notify you in writing. Any adjustment you make without the CO's determination is at your own risk and expense. From time to time the CO will provide necessary detailed drawings and other information, unless otherwise provided.

(b) Wherever in the specifications or the drawings FAA (we, our) uses "directed," "required," "ordered," "designated," "prescribed," or similar words, they refer to the CO's requirements.

You must have a complete set of plans and specifications on site and available for our use.

(c) Where we use "as shown," "as indicated," "as detailed," or similar words, they refer to the drawings accompanying this contract, unless stated otherwise. The word "provided" means "provided and installed."

(d) Omissions from the drawings and specifications or the erroneous description of details of work which are necessary to carry out the intent of the drawings and specifications, or which are customarily performed, does not relieve you from performing those omitted or erroneously described details of the work. You must perform them as if fully and correctly set forth and described in the drawings and specifications.

(e) You must check all drawings we provide to you before starting work and must promptly notify the CO of any discrepancies. In general you should follow figures marked on drawings, rather than scale measurements. In general, large scale drawings have precedence over small scale drawings. You must compare all drawings and verify the figures before laying out the work. If you do not verify the figures, you will be responsible for any errors you might have avoided had you verified them.

(f) "Shop drawings" means drawings, you or any subcontractor submit to us under a construction contract, showing in detail the proposed fabrication and assembly of structural elements and the installation (that is, form, fit, and attachment details) of materials or equipment. It includes drawings, diagrams, layouts, schematics, descriptive literature, illustrations, schedules, performance and test data, and similar materials you provided to explain in detail specific portions of the work the contract requires.

FAA may duplicate, use, and disclose in any manner and for any purpose shop drawings you deliver under this contract.

(g) If this contract requires material offers (for example, shop drawings, catalog cuts, certificates of conformance), you must coordinate all of your offers, and review them for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with contract requirements. You must provide evidence that you approve the submittals. If you submit materials to us without this evidence, we may return them and ask you to resubmit them. The CO will indicate whether he or she approves or disapproves your offer, and if the CO does not approve it as submitted, will indicate our reasons for rejecting it. Any work done before the CO's approval is at your risk. The CO's approval does not relieve you from responsibility for any errors or omissions in the submittals, nor from responsibility for complying with the contract requirements, except as described under (h).

(h) If you submittals vary from the contract requirements, you must describe the variations in writing, separate from the submittal, when you submit them. Send this description, a copy of the offer, and a proposal to incorporate it into the contract directly to the CO. If the CO approves a variation, the CO must issue an appropriate contract modification, unless the variation is minor or does not involve a change in price or in time of performance.

(i) You must submit to the CO for approval four copies (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings as called for under the various headings of these specifications. The CO will keep three sets (unless otherwise indicated) of all offers and will return one set to you.

(j) You must insert this clause, with appropriate changes in the designation of the parties, in all subcontracts.

(k) When you finish the work under this contract, you must provide [CO insert number] complete sets of all shop drawings as we finally approve them. These drawings must show all changes and revisions made up to the time you finish the work and we accept it.

(End of clause)

If the CO determines that your planned hazard avoidance measures are insufficient, the CO or a designated representative may require you to revise the plan. You may not begin work involving identified hazards unless you have submitted adequate plans to the CO and the CO has reviewed them. This approval does not relieve you of your liability for safe performance.
