If such delays and/or changes are ordered, the time of performance and contract price shall be adjusted in accordance with the applicable clauses in the Contract Clauses Section of this contract.

H.4.4 The Contractor agrees to insert this requirement in all subcontracts which involve the performance of work on the terrain of the site.

H.5.0 SUBSTITUTION – PROCESSION OF WORK

Any proposed key personnel, minimum qualifications for incoming or replacement key personnel, subcontractors, processes, procedures or materials included in the quotation are hereby incorporated into the contract. Performance shall be limited to the personnel, qualifications, firms, procedures, and materials that were specifically identified in the RFQ response. The Contractor shall obtain the Contracting Officer’s written consent before making any substitutions or changes. All substitutions or replacements shall comply with the terms and conditions of the contract.

H.6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

All waste materials generated by any work under the contract performed on a Government installation shall at all times be handled, transported, stored, and disposed of by the contractor and by his subcontractors in accordance with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, regulations, court orders, and other types of rulings having the effect of the law, including, but not limited to Executive Order 12088, 13 October 1978, Federal Compliance with Pollution Control Standards; the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 U.S.C.

1251 ET SEQ); the Clean Air Act as amended (42 U.S.C. Sec 7401 ET SEQ); the Endangered Species Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. Sec 1531, ET SEQ); the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. Sec 2601, ET SEQ); the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended (16 U.S.C.

Should the United States Government be held liable for any neglect or improper actions by the contractor or any subcontractor regarding removal or disposal of any hazardous waste, the contractor shall reimburse the Government for all such liability.

H.7.0 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

Any material suspected of being hazardous that is encountered during performance of a project shall immediately be brought to the attention of the Contracting Officer, at which time a determination will be made as to whether hazardous material testing shall be performed. If the Contracting Officer directs the contractor to perform tests, and/or the material is found to be of a hazardous nature requiring additional protective measures, a contract modification may be required, subject to equitable adjustment under the terms of the contract. The contractor is advised that friable and/or non-friable asbestos-containing material may be encountered in project areas. Friable asbestos-containing material is any material that contains more than one percent asbestos by weight, and that hand pressure can crumble, pulverize or reduce to powder when dry. Non-friable asbestos containing materials are materials in which asbestos fibers are bound by a matrix material, saturation, impregnation or coating.

Non-friable asbestos-containing materials do not normally release airborne asbestos fiber during routine handling and end-use. However, excessive fiber concentrations may be produced during uncontrolled abrading, sanding, drilling, cutting, machining, removal, demolition, or other similar activities. 29 CFR 1910.1001 shall be referenced in the event asbestos-containing materials are encountered. Friable asbestos-containing materials are not authorized for use in new construction or maintenance projects.

H.8.0 GREEN PROCUREMENT REQUIREMENTS

In the performance of this service or construction contract, the Contractor shall make maximum use of products identified on the mandatory environmental purchasing list at the following links, if applicable:

• U.S. EPA Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines published at www.epa.gov/cpg/products.htm.

• USDA Biobased product listings published at www.biopreferred.gov.

• Energy Star® product listings published at www.energystar.gov/products.

• FEMP Low Standby Power product listings published at http://energy.gov/eere/femp/covered-product-categories

Contractor shall comply with all reporting requirements of the following clauses when applicable (See Clause section):

• 52.223-1 Biobased Product Certification

• 52.223-2 Reporting of Biobased Products Under Service and Construction Contracts

• 52.223-4 Recovered Material Certification

• 52.223-9 Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content for EPA Designated Items

H.9.0 UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL

The contractor shall inform all personnel working under his jurisdiction (including subcontractor and visiting supplier personnel) that access to restricted areas outside of the immediate work area; excluding direct haul and access routes, contracting and Civil Engineering offices and points of supply and storage; is prohibited. Circulation of said personnel will be limited to official business only. Persons in violation of the above will be apprehended and appropriately disciplined.

H.10.0 DAVIS-BACON WAGE RATES APPLICABLE TO TRUCK DRIVERS

29 CFR 5.2(j) limits coverage of construction contractor or subcontractor employees performing as truck drivers under the Davis-Bacon Act (FAR 52.222-6) to only their time spent directly upon the "site of the work" or when hauling between the site of the work and a facility which is dedicated to and located in the proximity of the actual construction location. Other transportation of materials or supplies to or from the site of work by employees of the construction contractor or subcontractor is not “construction” at the site of work and accordingly is not subject to the Davis-Bacon Act.

H.11.0 FIRE DANGER SEASON

If the COR allows the Contractor to continue work during periods of declared fire danger or season, the Contractor shall comply with all applicable state laws relating to fire prevention and with all special conditions of work as directed by the COR.
