SECTION H - SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

H.1 DEPOT REGULATIONS - CONTRACTING OFFICER'S NOTICE

While within the confines of Tobyhanna Army Depot, Contractor employees will adhere to and be governed by all rules, regulations, policies, procedures and directives issued by the Commanding Officer, Tobyhanna Army Depot, and said employees will be required to conduct themselves in the same manner required of Government employees.

H.2 RATE OF WAGES - CONTRACTING OFFICER NOTICE

(a) The minimum wages paid to laborers and mechanics on this project, as determined by the Secretary of Labor to be prevailing for the corresponding classes of laborers and mechanics employed on projects of a character similar to the contract work in the pertinent locality, are as set forth below. (This clause is inoperative if the contract is in the amount of $2,000 or less).

(b) Any class of laborers and mechanics, including apprentices and trainees, not listed below employed on this contract shall be reclassified conformably to the schedule set out below by mutual agreement between the Contractor and class of labor concerned, subject to the prior approval of the Contracting Officer, and to the following criteria being satisfied:

(i) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination;

(ii) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry;

(iii) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.

In the event that a listed classification in fact performs the work of the missing classification, then that listed classification wage rate shall be used for the laborers or mechanics performing the said work. Information regarding whether a listed classification is documented as performing the work of the missing classification is available from the union in cases where the listed rate for the candidate classification was obtained from a union; or the information is available from DOL if the listed rate of the candidate classification is based upon a DOL survey. A classification rate can be determined as being from a DOL survey or from a union rate by the identifier above the classification: if the identifier shows the first few letters of the classification (e.g., carpenters may show “carp”, plumbers may show “plum”), the rate is a union rate; if, however, the identifiers starts with “SU”, the rate is based on a DOL survey. All identifiers starting with “SU” are non-union rates. Questions regarding whether a classification with a rate based upon a survey (i.e., non-union) is documented as doing the work of the missing classification may be posed to DOL at the regional office at (215) 861-5830.

(c) For purposes of a conformance, in the event the interested parties cannot agree on the proper classification or reclassification of a particular class of laborers and mechanics to be used, the questions, accompanied by the recommendation of the Contracting Officer, shall be referred to the Department of Labor for final determination.

WAGE DETERMINATION:

Construction Type: Building General Decision Number: PA190098 Modification Number Publication Date 4 02/15/2019

(d)(1) A Contractor may employ apprentices on Government Construction projects. The Contractor, prior to using apprentices on the contract work must submit to the Contracting Officer written evidence of registration of such employees in a program which has been accepted either by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training (BAT), U.S.

Department of Labor, or by a state apprenticeship and training agency approved and recognized by BAT. Trainees may be employed only under programs approved by BAT. The Contractor also shall be required to submit written evidence of apprentice to journey-man and trainee to journeyman ratios and wage rates including fringe benefit payments established for his program in the project area. Upon receipt of such submission, the Contracting Officer shall accept these ratios and rates for the purposes of determining the Contractor's compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act clause.

(2) Whenever a contractor has classified employees as apprentices or trainees without complying with the foregoing requirements, the classification shall be rejected, and the Contractor shall be required to pay such employees at the rates applicable to the classification of the work they actually performed.

H.3 PROGRESS PAYMENT REQUESTS

In accordance with the terms of the contract clause entitled Prompt Payment For Construction Contracts (FAR 52.232-27, SEP 2005) the following information and documentation is required to be included in any proper invoice for payment.

(APR 1984).

(b) Certified payroll records as required by FAR Clause 52.222-8, Payrolls And Basic Records (FEB 1988).

If occupational diseases are not compensable under those statutes, they shall be covered under the employer’s liability section of the insurance policy , except when contract operations are so commingled with a contractor’s commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage. Employer’s liability coverage of at least $100,000 shall be required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit worker’s compensation to be written by private carriers.

(b) GENERAL LIABILITY. Bodily injury liability insurance coverage written on the comprehensive form of the policy of at least $500,000 per occurrence is required. Property damage liability insurance is not required unless otherwise specified.

Alternate power such as propane or electricity is acceptable for use in populated areas. If the Government has required that the pertinent work be performed during times when the enclosed area is unpopulated, the COR must coordinate with the Safety Office for specific approval of both the use of the diesel/gasoline powered equipment and the schedule of the work for the Contractor to use the diesel or gasoline powered equipment. Under those circumstances which unequivocally preclude use of alternate power, and diesel or gasoline powered equipment must be used, the COR must coordinate with the Safety Office for approval of such use.
