(a) 'Work' includes, but is not limited to, materials, workmanship, and manufacture and fabrication of components.

(b) The Contractor shall maintain an adequate inspection system and perform such inspections as will ensure that the work performed under the contract conforms to contract requirements. The Contractor shall maintain complete inspection records and make them available to the Government. All work shall be conducted under the general direction of the Contracting Officer and is subject to Government inspection and test at all places and at all reasonable times before acceptance to ensure strict compliance with the terms of the contract.

(c) Government inspections and tests are for the sole benefit of the Government and do not--

(1) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for providing adequate quality control measures;

(2) Relieve the Contractor of responsibility for damage to or loss of the material before acceptance;

(3) Constitute or imply acceptance; or

(4) Affect the continuing rights of the Government after acceptance of the completed work under paragraph (i) below.

(d) The presence or absence of a Government inspector does not relieve the Contractor from any contract requirement, nor is the inspector authorized to change any term or condition of the specification without the Contracting Officer's written authorization.

(e) The Contractor shall promptly furnish, without additional charge, all facilities, labor, and material reasonably needed for performing such safe and convenient inspections and tests as may be required by the Contracting Officer.

The Government may charge to the Contractor any additional cost of inspection or test when work is not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, or when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary. The Government shall perform all inspections and tests in a manner that will not unnecessarily delay the work. Special, full size, and performance tests shall be performed as described in the contract.

(f) The Contractor shall, without charge, replace or correct work found by the Government not to conform to contract requirements, unless the Government determines that it is in the public interest to accept the work with an appropriate adjustment in contract price. The Contractor shall promptly segregate and remove rejected material from the premises.

(g) If the Contractor does not promptly replace or correct rejected work, the Government may:

(1) by contract or otherwise, replace or correct the work and charge the cost to the Contractor or

(2) terminate for default the Contractor's right to proceed.

(h) If, before acceptance of the entire work, the Government decides to examine already completed work by removing it or tearing it out, the Contractor, on request, shall promptly furnish all necessary facilities, labor, and material. If the work is found to be defective or nonconforming in any material respect due to the fault of the Contractor or its subcontractors, the Contractor shall defray the expenses of the examination and of satisfactory reconstruction. However, if the work is found to meet contract requirements, the Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment for the additional services involved in the examination and reconstruction, including, if completion of the work was thereby delayed, an extension of time.

(i) Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Government shall accept, as promptly as practicable after completion and inspection, all work required by the contract or that portion of the work the Contracting Officer determines can be accepted separately. Acceptance shall be final and conclusive except for latent defects, fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or the Government's rights under any warranty or guarantee.

(j) In the absence of any formal disputes, a project will be deemed physically and financially complete within one year after final acceptance and excess funds will be deobligated at that time.

(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.

Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:

Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

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 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. WA20220011, dated 02/25/2022, FOR THE STATE OF

WASHINGTON (SEE SECTION “J”). THE WAGE DETERMINATION IS HEREBY INCORPORATED INTO

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

H003 SUBMITTALS / CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE

See Attachment 1 – Specifications for required submittals and information regarding the submittal process. The estimated timeframe for the submittal process is 30 days from contract award. The contractor must provide an initial construction schedule for FAA review and approval within 14 days of contract award, and a finalized project schedule least 7 days prior to the Notice to Proceed. The contractor is required to provide the FAA with notice if the contractor makes logic changes in the schedule after approval/acceptance of schedule.

The Notice to Proceed (NTP) will not be issued until all required submittals, including the schedule, have been approved by the FAA.

The contractor is expected to finance the project throughout the submittal process until the NTP is issued. Once the NPT is issued, the FAA will begin making financing payments monthly as work progresses, as detailed in Contract Clause 3.3.1-2 Payments under Fixed-Price Construction Contracts (July 2018).

3.2.2.3-41 PERFORMING WORK (JUL 2004)

The Contractor (you) must perform, using your own organization, work equivalent to at least 15 percent of the total amount of work under the contract on the site. The CO may modify this contract to reduce this percentage if you request a reduction and the CO determines that it would be to the Government's advantage to do so.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-42 DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS (JUL 2004)

(a) Before the conditions are disturbed, the Contractor (you) must promptly notify the Contractor Officer (CO) in writing of either or both of the following conditions:

(1) Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site which differ materially from those described in this contract.

(2) Unknown physical conditions at the site, of an unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent to the type of work the contract covers.

(b) FAA (we) will investigate the site conditions promptly after receiving the notice. If the CO determines that the conditions do materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in your cost of, or the time required for, performing any part of the work under this contract, the CO will make an equitable adjustment under this clause and modify the contract accordingly in writing.

(c) The CO will not accept your request for an equitable adjustment to the contract unless you give the written notice. However, the CO may extend the time for giving written notice.

(d) The CO will not accept your request for an equitable adjustment for differing site conditions after we make final payment under this contract.

(End of clause)

(a) The Contractor (you) must incorporate equipment, material, and articles that are new and of the most suitable grade for the purpose intended to do the work this contract covers, unless the contract provides otherwise. The FAA

(we) encourages you to use recycled materials to manufacture the products. If the contract specifies equipment, material, or articles by trade name, make, or catalog number, you must use those specific items. We will not accept equivalent items unless the specification authorizes it.

(b) You must perform all work under this contract in a skillful and workmanlike manner. The Contracting Officer (CO) may require, in writing, that you remove employees whom the CO determines are incompetent, careless, or otherwise objectionable.

You are also responsible for all materials delivered and work performed until you complete and we accept the entire work, except for any completed unit of work that may have already been accepted under the contract.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-50 PROPERTY PROTECTION (OCT 2014)

(a) The Contractor (you) must construct and maintain any temporary fences, gates and other facilities needed to preserve crops, control livestock, and protect property. Before cutting a fence, you must take necessary precautions to prevent livestock from straying. You must also prevent loss of tension in or damage to adjacent portions of the fence. You must immediately replace all fencing and gates you cut, remove, damage, or destroy with new materials to the original standard. You may reuse undamaged gates.

(b) You must comply with the property owner's requests to leave gates open or closed.

(c) You must use all necessary precautions to avoid destroying surveying markers such as section corners, witness trees, property corners, mining claim markers, bench markers, triangulation stations, and the like. If you must destroy any marker, you must first notify the agency responsible for the marker, as well as the Contracting Officer's (CO) representative, and replace the markers.

(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.

(a) The Contractor (you) must confine all operations (including storaging materials) on FAA (we, us) premises to areas the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) authorized or approved.

(b) You may erect temporary buildings (for example, storage sheds, shops, offices) and utilities only with the Contracting Officer's (CO) approval. You must build them with labor and materials you provide at no cost to us. The temporary buildings and utilities remain your property and you must remove them at your expense when you complete the work. You must have the CO's written consent to abandon the buildings and utilities.

(c) You must use only established roadways. The CO may authorize you to construct temporary roadways at your expense. When you transport materials for this purpose, you may not load vehicles beyond the loading capacity of the vehicle or as prescribed by law or regulation. When you must cross curbs or sidewalks, you must protect them from damage. If they are damaged you must repair or pay for the repair of any damaged curbs, sidewalks, or roads.

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)

(a) Before beginning work, the Contractor (you) must:

(1) Perform a hazards analysis of the work specified in this contract. Consider both the site and adjacent conditions.

Identify all significant hazards. Some of the hazards you might encounter are trips, falls, power tool injuries, etc.

(2) Submit a safety plan for dealing with each specific hazard identified, whether you or FAA identified it.

(3) Meet with the CO's representatives during the preconstruction conference to discuss and to develop a mutual understanding about the content and implementation of the plan.

(4) The CO or her or his representatives may require other hazards to be added to the plan. 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.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-71 COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK (OCT 2021)

The Contractor must (a) begin work under this contract within 5 calendar days after the date you receive the notice to proceed, (b) perform the work diligently, and (c) complete the entire work ready for use not later than 90.

3.3.1-2 PAYMENTS UNDER FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS (JUL 2018)

(a) The FAA will pay the Contractor the contract price as provided in this contract.

(b) The FAA will make financing payments monthly as the work proceeds, or at more frequent intervals as determined by the Contracting Officer, on estimates of work accomplished which meets the standards of quality established under the contract, as approved by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor must furnish a breakdown of the total contract price showing the amount included therein for each principal category of the work, which must substantiate the payment amount requested in order to provide a basis for determining financing payments, in such detail as requested by the Contracting Officer. In the preparation of estimates, the Contracting Officer may authorize material delivered on the site and preparatory work done to be taken into consideration. Material delivered to the Contractor at locations other than the site may also be taken into consideration if --

(1) Consideration is specifically authorized by this contract; and

(2) The Contractor furnishes satisfactory evidence that it has acquired title to such material and that the material will be used to perform this contract.

(c) Along with each request for financing payments, the contractor must furnish the following certification, or payment will not be made:

I hereby certify, to the best of my knowledge and belief, that-

(1) The amounts requested are only for performance in accordance with the specifications, terms, and conditions of the contract;

(2) Payments to subcontractors and suppliers have been made from previous payments received under the contract, and timely payments will be made from the proceeds of the payment covered by this certification, in accordance with subcontract agreements and the requirements of chapter 39 of Title 31, United States Code; and

(3) This request for financing payments does not include any amounts which the prime contractor intends to withhold or retain from a subcontractor or supplier in accordance with the terms and conditions of the subcontract.

[enter name] (Name) [enter title] (Title) [enter date] (Date)

(d) If the Contractor, after making a certified request for financing payments, discovers that a portion or all of such request constitutes a payment for performance by the Contractor that fails to conform to the specifications, terms, and conditions of this contract (hereinafter referred to as the unearned amount), the Contractor must-

(1) Notify the Contracting Officer of such performance deficiency;

(2) Be obligated to pay the FAA an amount (computed by the Contracting Officer in the manner provided in "Interest" clause) equal to interest on the unearned amount from the date of receipt of the unearned amount until-

(i) The date the Contractor notifies the Contracting Officer that the performance deficiency has been corrected; or

(ii) The date the Contractor reduces the amount of any subsequent certified request for financing payments by an amount equal to the unearned amount.

(e) If the Contracting Officer finds that satisfactory progress was achieved during any period for which a progress payment is to be made, the Contracting Officer will authorize payment to be made in full. However, if satisfactory progress has not been made, the Contracting Officer may retain a maximum of 10 percent of the amount of the payment until satisfactory progress is achieved. When the work is substantially complete, the Contracting Officer may retain from previously withheld funds and future financing payments that amount the Contracting Officer considers adequate for protection of the FAA and will release to the Contractor all the remaining withheld funds.

Also, on completion and acceptance of each separate building, public work, or other division of the contract, for which the price is stated separately in the contract, payment will be made for the completed work without retention of a percentage.

(f) All material and work covered by financing payments made will, at the time of payment, become the sole property of the FAA, but this will not be construed as--

(1) Relieving the Contractor from the sole responsibility for all material and work upon which payments have been made or the restoration of any damaged work; or

(2) Waiving the right of the FAA to require the fulfillment of all of the terms of the contract.

(g) In making these financing payments, the FAA will, upon request, reimburse the Contractor for the amount of premiums paid for performance and payment bonds (including coinsurance and reinsurance agreements, when applicable)…
