SECTION 00 43 37
VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law
provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors
whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects for construction,
improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the
same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a
comparable contract in the State which the nonresidenYs principal place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders
must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of State Nere or Bl�nk , our principal place of business,
are required to be % Here percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of State Here or Biank , our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. �

Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient slcilled worlcers or
suitable materials or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule estabiished under

notice to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address
Contractor's failure to perform the Worlc. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after
receipt of notice.

perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and

Notice of Requirement for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment
Opportunity (Executive Order 11246)
1. General. In addition to the affirmative action requirements of the Special Provision titled
"Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications" as
set forth elsewhere in this proposal, the Bidder's attention is directed to the specific
requirements for utilization of minorities and females as set forth below.
2. Goals.
a. Goals for minority and female participation are hereby established in accordance with
41 CFR 60-4.
b. The goals for minority and female participation expressed in percentage terms for the
Contractor's aggregate work force in each trade on all construction work in the covered
area, are as follows:
Goals for minority Goals for female
participation in participation in
each trade (per- each trade (per-
cent) cent)
See Table 1 6.9
c. These goals are applicable to all the Contractor's construction worlc (whether or not it is
Federal or federally assisted) performed in the covered area. If the Contractor performs
construction work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, it shall
apply the goals established for such geographical area where the work is actually
performed. With regard to this second area, the Contractor also is subject to the goals
for both its federally involved and non-federally involved construction. The
Contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 CFR Part
60-4 shall be based on its implementation of the Standard Federal Equal Employment
Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications Special Provision and its efforts to
meet the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must be
substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the
Contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on
each of its projects. The transfer of minority and female employees or trainees from
Contractor to Contractor or from project to project for the sole purpose of ineeting the
Contractor's goals shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order and the
regulations in 41 CFR Part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured against
the total work hours performed.
1-5 000---004
OS-04
d. A contractor or subcontractor will be considered in compliance with these provisions
by participation in the Texas Highway-Heavy Branch, AGC, Statewide Training and
Affirmative Action Plan. Provided that each contractor or subcontractor participating
in this plan must individually comply with the equal opportunity clause set forth in 41
CFR 60-1.4 and must make a good faith effort to achieve the goals set forth for each
participating trade in the plan in which it has employees. The overall good
performance of other contractors and subcontractors toward a goal in an approved plan
does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's failure to malce good faith
efforts to achieve the goals contained in these provisions. Contractors or subcontractors
participating in the plan must be able to demonstrate their participation and document
their compliance with the provisions of this Plan.
3. Subcontracting. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Department within
10 worlcing days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier
for construction worlc under the contract resulting from this solicitation pending concurrence
of the Department in the award. The notification shall list the names, address and telephone
number of the subcontractor; employer identification number; estimated dollar amount of
the subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the subcontract; and the
geographical area in which the contract is to be performed.
4. Covered Area. As used in this special provision, and in the contract resulting from this
solicitation, the geographical area covered by these goals for female participation is the
State of Texas. The geographical area covered by these goals for other minorities are the
counties in the State of Texas as indicated in Table 1.
5. Reports. The Contractor is hereby notified that he may be subject to the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) reporting and record lceeping requirements as
provided for under Executive Order 11246 as amended. OFCCP will provide direct notice
to the Contractor as to the specific reporting requirements that he will be expected to fulfill.

SPECIAL PROVISION
000---006
Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract
Specifications (Executive Order 11246)
1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the solicitation from which
this contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United
States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority;
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security number used on
the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
(i) Black (all persons having origins in any of the Black African racial groups not of
Hispanic origin);
(ii) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South
American or other Spanish Culture or origin, regardless of race);
(iii) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples
of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands);
and
(iv) American Indian or Alaslcan Native (all persons having origins in any of the
original peoples of North American and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations
through membership and participation or community identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the
work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in
excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains the
applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the
solicitations from which this contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60-4.5) in a Hometown Plan approved
by the U. S. Department of Labor in the covered area either individually or through an
association, its affiimative action obligations on all work in the Plan area (including goals
and timetables) shall be in accordance with that plan for those trades which have unions
participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation in and
compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown Plan. Each Contractor or
Subcontractor participating in an approved Plan is individually required to comply with its
1-6 000---006
OS-04
obligations under the EEO clause, and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under
the Plan in each trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith performance by
other Contractors or Subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan does not excuse any
covered Contractor's or Subcontractor's failure to talce good faith efforts to achieve the Plan
goals and timetables.
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in
paragraphs 7a through p of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from
which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of employment
and training of minority and female utilization the Contractor should reasonably be able to
achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area. Covered
construction contractors performing contracts in geographical areas where they do not have
a Federal or federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and female
goals established for the geographical area where the contract is being performed. Goals are
published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form and such notices may be
obtained from any Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs office or any Federal
procurement contracting officer. The Contractor is expected to malce substantially uniform
progress toward its goals in each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union
with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities
or women shall excuse the Contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive
Order 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworlcing training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in
meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the Contractor during
the training period, and the Contractor must have made a commitment to employ the
apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability of
employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs
approved by the U. S. Department of Labor.
7. The Contractor shall talce specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment
opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these specifications shall
be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its actions. The Contractor shall
document these efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as
extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a worlcing environment free of harassment, intimidation, and
coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the Contractor's employees are
assigned to worlc. The Contractor, where possible, will assign two or more women to
each construction project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen,
superintendents, and other on-site supervisory personnel are aware of and carry out the
Contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment, with specific attention
to minority or female individuals worlcing at such sites or in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources,
provide written notification to minority and female recruitment sources and to
community organizations when the Contractor or its unions have employment
opportunities available, and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.
2-6 000---006
OS-04
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each minority
and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a
recruitment source or community organization and of what action was talcen with
respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for
referral and was not referred bacic to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not
employed by the Contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason
therefor, along with whatever additional actions the Contractor may have talcen.
d. Provide immediate written notiiication to the Director when the union or unions with
which the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the
Contractor a minority person or woman sent by the Contractor, or when the Contractor
has other information that the union referral Process has impeded the Contractor's
efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for
the area which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs
and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the Contractor's employment
needs; especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The
Contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under 7b
above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions
and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the Contractor in
meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual and Collective
bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report, etc.;
by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority
and female employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on
bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where construction work is
performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations
under these specifications with all employees having any responsibility for hiring,
assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific
review of these items with onsite supervisory personnel such as Superintendents,
General Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A
written record shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these
meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject
matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising in
the news media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing
written notification to and discussing the Contractor's EEO policy with other
Contractors and Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing
business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and community
organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority and female
recruitment and training organizations serving the Contractor's recruitment area and
employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of
3-6 000---006
OS-04
applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the
Contractor shall send written notification to organizations such as the above, describing
the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons and
women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation employment
to minority and female youth both on the site and in other areas of a Contractor's
worlcforce.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so
under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
1. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and
female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek
or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, worlc assignments and other
personnel practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all
personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the
Contractor's obligations under these specifications are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are non-segregated except that separate
or single-user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to assure
privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from
minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of
solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and other business
associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance
under the Contractor's EEO policies and afiirmative action obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in fulfilling
one or more of their affirmative action obligations (7a through p). The efforts of a contractor
association, joint contractor-union, contractor-community, or other similar group of which
the contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling any one or more of
its obligations under 7a through p of these Speciiications provided that the contractor
actively participates in the group, malces eveiy effort to assure that the group has a positive
impact on the employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensures that the
concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the Contractor's minority and female
worlcforce participation, malces a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and
timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates the effectiveness
of actions talcen on behalf of the Contractor. The obligation to comply, however, is the
Contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the
Contractor's noncompliance.
9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been established.
The Contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to talce
affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female, and all women, both
4-6 000---006
OS-04
minority and non-minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner (for
example, even though the Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the
Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women
� is underutilized).
10. Nondiscrimination programs require that Federal-aid recipients, subrecipients, and
contractors prevent discrimination and ensure nondiscrimination in all of their programs and
activities, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not. The factors
prohibited from serving as a basis for action or inaction which discriminates include race,
color, national origin, sex, age, and handicap/disability. The efforts to prevent
discrimination must address, but not be limited to a program's impacts, access, benefits,
participation, treatment, services, contracting opportunities, training opportunities,
investigations of complaints, allocations of funds, prioritization of projects, and the
functions of right-of-way, research, planning, and design.
11. The Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with any person or firm debarred from
Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these
specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination and
cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive
Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs. Any contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and
penalties shall be in violation of these speciiications and Executive Order 11246, as
amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement
specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in
paragraph 7 of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to
ensure equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the
requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications,
the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related
activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports
relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to keep records.
Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address, telephone numbers,
construction trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned,
social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice, trainee, helper, or
laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per weelc in the indicated trade, rate of
pay, and locations at which the worlc was performed. Records shall be maintained in an
easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that existing records
satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required to maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other laws
which establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements
for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those under the Public Worlcs
Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Blocic Grant Program).

16. In addition to the reporting requirements set forth elsewhere in this contract, the Contractor
and the subcontractors holding subcontracts, not including material suppliers, of $10,000 or
more, shall submit for every month of July during which work is per-formed, employment
data as contained under Form PR 1391 (Appendix C to 23 CFR, Part 230), and in

Certification of Nondiscrimination in Employment
By signing this proposal, the bidder certifies that he has participated in a previous contract or
subcontract subject to the equal opportunity clause, as required by Executive Orders 10925,
11114, or 11246, or if he has not participated in a previous contract of this type, or if he has had
previous contract or subcontracts and has not filed, he will file with the Joint Reporting
Committee, the Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance, a Federal Government
contracting or administering agency, or the former President's Committee on Equal Employment
Opportunity, all reports due under the applicable filing requirements.
Note: The above certification is required by the Equal Employment Opportunity Regulations of
the Secretary of Labor (41 CFR 60-1.7(b)(1)), and must be submitted by bidders and proposed
subcontractors only in connection with contracts and subcontracts which are subject to the equal
opportunity clause. Contracts and subcontracts which are exempt from the equal opportunity
clause are set forth in 41 CFR 60-1.5. (Generally only contracts or subcontracts of $10,000 or
under are exempt.)
Currently, Standard Form 100 (EEO-1) is the only report required by the Executive Orders or
their implementing regulations.
Proposed prime contractors and subcontractors who have participated in a previous contract or
subcontract subject to the Executive Orders and have not iiled the required reports should note
that 41 CFR 60-1.7(b)(1) prevents the award of contracts and subcontracts unless such contractor
submits a report covering the delinquent period or such other period specified by the Federal
Highway Administration or by the Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance, U. S.
Department of Labor.

disadvantaged can compete fairly for DOT assisted contracts. If the Disadvantaged
Business Enterprise (DBE) goal is greater than zero, Article A, "Disadvantaged Business
Enterprise in Federal Aid Contracts", of this Special Provision shall apply to this contract.
If there is no DBE goal, Article B, "Race-Neutral DBE Participation", of this Special
Provision shall apply to this contract. The percentage goal for DBE participation in the
work to be performed under this contract will be shown on the proposal.
A. Article A. Disadvantaged Business Enterprise in Federal Aid Contracts.
1. Policy. It is the policy of the DOT and the Texas Department of Transportation

the recipient deems appropriate.
c. The requirements of this Special Provision shall be physically included in any
subcontract.
d. By signing the contract proposal, the Bidder is certifying that the DBE goal as
stated in the proposal will be met by obtaining commitments from eligible
DBEs or that the Bidder will provide acceptable evidence of good faith effort

A regular dealer in such bullc items as steel, cement, gravel, stone, and
petroleum products need not keep such products in stock if it owns and
operates distribution equipment for the products. Any supplementing of
regular dealers own distribution equipment shall be by a long-term lease
agreement and not on an ad hoc or contract-by-contract basis. Brokers,
packagers, manufacturers' representatives, or other persons who arrange or
expedite transactions shall not be regarded as a regular dealer.
k. "Texas Unified Certification Program" or "TUCP" provides one-stop shopping
to applicants for certification, such that applicants are required to apply only
once for a DBE certification that will be honored by all recipients of federal
funds in the state. The TUCP by Memorandum of Agreement established six
member entities to serve as certifying agents for Texas in speciiied regions.
3. Contractor's Responsibilities. These requirements must be satisfied by the
Contractor.
a. After conditional award of the contract, the Contractor shall submit a
completed Form SMS.4901 "DBE Commitment Agreement", From SMS
4901-T "DBE Trucking Commitment Agreement", or Form SMS.4901-MS
"DBE Material & Supplier Commitment AgreemenY' for each DBE he/she
intends to use to satisfy the DBE goal or a good faith effort to explain why the
goal could not be reached, so as to arrive in the Department's Office of Civil
Rights (OCR) in Austin, Texas not later than 5:00 p.m. on the l Oth business
day, excluding national holidays, after the conditional award of the contract.
When requested, additional time, not to exceed 7 business days, excluding
national holidays, may be granted based on documentation submitted by the
Contractor.
b. DBE prime Contractors may receive credit toward the DBE goal for work
performed by his/her own forces and worlc subcontracted to DBEs. A DBE
prime must make a good faith effort to meet the goals. In the event a DBE
prime subcontracts to a non-DBE, that information must be reported on Form
SMS.4902.
c. A Contractor who cannot meet the contract goal, in whole or in part, shall
make adequate good faith efforts to obtain DBE participation as so stated and
defined in 49 CFR Part 26, Appendix A. The following is a list of the types of
action that may be considered as good faith efforts. It is not intended to be a
mandatory checklist, nor is it intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. Other
factors or types of efforts may be relevant in appropriate cases.
• Soliciting through all reasonable and available means (e.g. attendance at
prebid meetings, advertising, and/or written notices) the interest of all
certified DBEs who have the capability to perform the work of the
contract. The solicitation must be done within sufiicient time to allow the
DBEs to respond to it. Appropriate steps must be talcen to follow up initial
solicitations to determine, with certainty, if the DBEs are interested.
3-11 000--1966
06-10
• Selecting portions of the work to be performed by DBEs in order to
increase the likelihood that the DBE goals will be achieved. This includes,
where appropriate, breaking out contract worlc items into economically
feasible units to facilitate DBE participation, even when the Contractor
might otherwise prefer to perform the worlc items with its own forces.
• Providing interested DBEs with adequate infoimation about the plans,
specifications, and requirements of the contract in a timely manner to
assist them in responding to a solicitation.
• Negotiating in good faith with interested DBEs to make a portion of the
work available to DBE subcontractors and suppliers and select those
portions of the worlc or material needs consistent with the available DBE
subcontractors and suppliers, so as to facilitate DBE participation.
Evidence of such negotiations includes the names, addresses, and
telephone numbers of DBEs that were considered; a description of the
information provided regarding the plans and speciiications for the work
selected for subcontracting; and evidence as to why additional agreements
could not be reached for DBEs to perform the worlc.
• A Bidder using good business judgment would consider a number of
factors in negotiating with subcontractors, including DBE subcontractors,
and would talce a fii•m price and capabilities as well as contract goals into
consideration. However, the fact that there may be some additional cost
involved in iinding and using DBEs is not in itself sufficient reason for a
bidders failure to meet the Contract DBE goal as long as such cost are
reasonable. Also, the ability or desire of the Contractor to perform the
worlc of the Contract with its own organization does not relieve the Bidder
of the responsibility to make good faith effort. Contractors are not,
however, required to accept higher quotes from DBEs if the price
difference is excessive or unreasonable.
• Not rejecting DBEs as being unqualified without sound reasons based on a
thorough investigation of their capabilities. The Contractor's standing
within its industry, membership in specific groups, organizations, or
associations and political oi• social affiliations (for example union vs. non-
union employee status) are not legitimate cause for the rejection or non-
solicitation of bids and the Contractors efforts to meet the project goal.
� Malcing efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining bonding, lines of
credit, or insurance as required by the recipient or Contractor.
• Malcing efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining necessaiy
equipment, supplies, materials, or related assistance or services.
• Effectively using the services of available minority/women community
organizations; minority/women Contractors' gtoups; local, state, and
Federal minority/women business assistance offices; and other
organizations as allowed on a case-by-case basis to provide assistance in
the recruitment and placement of DBEs.
4-11 000--1966
06-10
• If the Program Manager of the OCR determines that the Contractor has
failed to meet the good faith effort requirements, the Contractor will be
given an opportunity for reconsideration by the Director of the OCR.
d. Should the bidder to whom the contract is conditionally awarded refuse,
neglect or fail to meet the DBE goal or comply with good faith effort
requirements, the proposal guaranty iiled with the bid shall become the
property of the state, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages to the
Department.
e. The preceding information shall be submitted directly to the Office of Civil
Rights, Texas Department of Transportation, 125 E. l lth Street, Austin, Texas
78701-2483.
f. The Contractor shall not terminate for convenience a DBE subcontractor
named in the commitment submitted under Section 1.A.3.a, of this Special
Provision. Prior to terminating or removing a DBE subcontractor named in the
commitment, the Contractor must have a written consent of the Department.
g. The Contractor shall also make a good faith effort to replace a DBE
subcontractor that is unable to perform successfully with another DBE, to the
extent needed to meet the contract goal. The Contractor shall submit a
completed Form 4901 "DBE Commitment Agreement", From SMS 4901-T
"DBE Trucking Commitment Agreement", or Form SMS.4901-MS "DBE
Material & Supplier Commitment Agreement" for the substitute DBE firm(s).
Any substitution of DBEs shall be subj ect to approval by the Department.
Prior to approving the substitution, the Department will request a statement
from the DBE concerning it being replaced.
h. The Contractor shall designate a DBE liaison ofiicer who will administer the
Contractor's DBE program and who will be responsible for maintenance of
records of efforts and contacts made to subcontract with DBEs.
i. Contractors are encouraged to investigate the services offered by banlcs owned
and controlled by disadvantaged individuals and to make use of these banlcs
where feasible.
4. Eligibility of DBEs.
a. The member entities of the TUCP certify the eligibility of DBEs and DBE
joint ventures to perform DBE subcontract work on DOT iinancially assisted
contracts.
b. The Department maintains the Texas Unified Certification Program DBE
Directory containing the names of firms that have been certified to be eligible
to participate as DBE's on DOT financially assisted contracts. This Directory
is available from the Department's OCR. An update of the Directory can be
found on the Internet at http://www.dot.state.tx.us/business/tucp/default.htm.
5-11 000--1966
06-10
c. Only DBE firms certified at the time commitments are submitted are eligible
to be used in the information furnished by the Contractor as required under
Section 1.A.3.a. and 3.g. above. For purposes of the DBE goal on this project,
DBEs will only be allowed to perform worlc in the categories of work for
which they are certified.
d. Only DBE firms certified at the time of execution of a
contract/subcontract/purchase order, are eligible for DBE goal participation.
5. Determination of DBE Participation. When a DBE participates in a contract,
only the values of the work actually performed by the DBE, as referenced below,
shall be counted by the prime contractor toward DBE goals:
a. The total amount paid to the DBE for worlc performed with his/her own forces
is counted toward the DBE goal. When a DBE subcontracts part of the worlc
of its contract to another firm, the value of the subcontracted worlc may be
counted toward DBE goals only if the subcontractor is itself a DBE. Worlc
that a DBE subcontracts to a non-DBE fiz•m does not count toward DBE goals.
b. A Contractor may count toward its DBE goal a portion of the totai value of
the contract amount paid to a DBE joint venture equal to the distinct, clearly
deiined portion of the worlc of the contract performed by the DBE.
(1) A Contractor may count toward its DBE goal only expenditures to DBEs
that perform a commercially useful function (CUF) in the worlc of a
contract or purchase order. A DBE is considered to perform a CUF
when it is responsible for execution of the worlc of the contract and is
carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing, and
supervising the work involved. To perform a CUF, the DBE must also
be responsible, with respect to materials and supplies used on the
contract, for negotiating price, determining quality and quantity,
ordering the material, and installing (where applicable) and paying for
the material itself.
In accordance with 49 CFR Part 26, Appendix A, guidance concerning
Good Faith Effor-ts, contractors may malce efforts to assist interested
DBEs in obtaining necessary equipment, supplies, materials, or related
assistance or services. Contractors may not however, negotiate the price
of materials or supplies used on the contract by the DBE, nor may they
determine quality and quantity, order the materials themselves, nor
install the materials (where applicable), or pay for the material
themselves. Contractors however, may share the quotations they receive
from the material supplier with the DBE firm, so that the DBE firm may
negotiate a reasonable price with the material supplier.
In all cases, prime or other non-DBE subcontractor assistance will
not be credited toward the DBE goal.
6-11 000--1966
06-10
(2) A DBE does not perform a CUF if its role is limited to that of an extra
participant in a transaction, contract, or project through which funds are
passed in order to obtain the appearance of DBE participation.
Consistent with industry practices and the DOT/Department's DBE
program, a DBE subcontractor may enter into second-tier subcontracts,
amounting up to 70% of their contract. Work subcontracted to a non-
DBE does not count towards DBE goals. If a DBE does not perform or
exercise responsibility for at least 30% of the total cost of its contract
with its own worlc force, or the DBE subcontracts a greater portion of
the work of a contract than would be expected on the basis of normal
industry practice for the type of work involved, it will be presumed that
the DBE is not performing a CUF
(3) A DBE trucking firm (including an owner operator who is certified as a
DBE is considered to be performing a CUF when the DBE is responsible
for the management and supervision of the entire trucking operation on a
particular contract and the DBE itself owns and operates at least 1 fully
licensed, insured, and operational truck used on the contract.
(a) The Contractor receives credit for the total value of the
transportation services the DBE provides on a contract using trucics
it owns, insures, and operates using drivers it employs.
(b) The DBE may lease trucics from another DBE firm, including an
owner operator who is certified as a DBE. The DBE who leases
trucks from another DBE receives credit for the total value of the
transportation services the lessee DBE provides on the Contract.
(c) The DBE may also lease trucks from a non-DBE iirm, including
from an owner-operator. The DBE who leases trucks from a non-
DBE is entitled to credit for the total value of transportation
services provided by non-DBE lessees not to exceed the value of
transportation services provided by the DBE-owned trucks on the
contract. Additional participation by non-DBE lessees receive
credit only for the fee or commission it receives as result of the
lease anangement
(d) A lease must indicate that the DBE has exclusive use of and
control over the trucks giving the DBE absolute priority for use of
the leased trucks. Leased trucks must display the name and
identification number of the DBE.
(4) When a DBE is presumed not to be performing a CUF the DBE may
present evidence to rebut this presumption.
(5) Project materials or supplies acquired fi•om an affiliate of the prime
contractor can not directly or indirectly (2°d or lower tier subcontractor)
be used for DBE goal credit.
7-11 000--1966
06-10
c. A Contractor may count toward its DBE goals expenditures for materials and
supplies obtained from a DBE manufacturer, provided that the DBE assumes
the actual and contractual responsibility for the materials and supplies. Count
expenditures with DBEs for materials or supplies toward DBE goals as
provided in the following:
(1) If the materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, count
100% of the cost of the materials or suppiies toward DBE goals.
(Definition of a DBE manufacturer found at lA.c.(1) of this provision.)
For purposes of this Section (1.A.c.(1)), a manufacturer is a iirm that
operates or maintains a factory or establishment that produces, on the
premises, the materials, supplies, articles, or equipment required under the
contract and of the general character described by the speciiications.
(2) If the materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer,
count 60% of the cost of the materials or supplies toward DBE goals.
For puiposes of this Section (1.A.5.c.(2)), a regular dealer is a iirm that
owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other establishment in
which the materials, supplies, articles or equipment of the general
character described by the specifications and i•equired under the contract
are bought, lcept in stocic, and regularly sold or leased to the public in the
usual course of business:
(A) To be a regular dealer, the firm must be an established, regular
business that engages, as its principal business and under its own
name, in the purchase and sale or lease of the products in question.
(B) A person may be a regular dealer in such bulk items as petroleum
products, steel, cement, gravel, stone or asphalt without owning,
operating, or maintaining a place of business as provided in the first
paragraph under Section 1.A.S.c.(2), if the person both owns and
operates distribution equipment for the products. Any supplementing
of regular dealers' own distribution equipment shall be by a long-term
lease agreement and not on an ad hoc or contract-by-contract basis.
(C) Pacicagers, brolcers, manufacturers' representatives, or other persons
who arrange or expedite transactions are not regular dealers within the
meaning of Section 1.A.S.c.(2).
(3) With respect to materials or supplies purchased from DBE which is
neither a manufacturer nor a regular dealer, count the entire amount of
fees or commissions charged for assistance in the procurement of the
materials and supplies, or fees or transportation charges for the delivery of
materials or supplies required on a job site, toward DBE goals, provided
you determine the fees to be reasonable and not excessive as compared
with fees customarily allowed for similar services.
8-11 000--1966
06-10
Do not count any portion of the cost of the materials and supplies
themselves toward DBE goals.
(4) Count the entire amount of fees or commissions charged by a DBE iirm
for providing a bona fide service, such as professional, technical,
consultant or managerial services, or for providing bonds or insurance
specifically required for the performance of a DOT-assisted contract,
toward DBE goals, provided you determine the fee to be reasonable and
not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar
services.
d. If the Contractor chooses to assist a DBE iirm, other than a manufacturing
material supplier or regular dealer, and the DBE firm accepts the assistance,
the Contractor may act solely as a guarantor by use of a two-party checic for
payment of materials to be used on the project by the DBE. The material
supplier must invoice the DBE who will present the invoice to the Contractor.
The Contractor may issue a joint check to the DBE and the material supplier
and the DBE firm inust issue the remittance to the material supplier. No funds
shall go directly from the Contractor to the material supplier. The DBE firm
may accept or reject this joint checking arrangement.
The Contractor must obtain approval from the Department prior to
implementing the use of j oint check arrangements with the DBE. Submit to
the Department, Joint Check Approval Form 2178 for requesting approval.
Provide copies of cancelled joint checks upon request. No DBE goal credit
will be allowed for the cost of DBE materials that are paid by the Contractor
directly to the material supplier.
e. No DBE goal credit will be allowed for supplies and equipment the DBE
subcontractor leases from the contractor or its affiliates.
f. No DBE goal credit will be allowed for the period of time determined by the
Department that the DBE was not performing a CUF. The denial period of
time may occur before or after a determination has been made by the
department. In case of the denial of credit for non-performance of a CUF of a
DBE, the Contractor will be required to provide a substitute DBE to meet the
contract goal or provide an adequate good faith effort when applicable.
6. Records and Reports.
a. The Contractor shall submit monthly reports, after work begins, on DBE
payments to meet the DBE goal and for DBE or HUB race-neutral
participation. Report payments made to non-DBE HUBs. The monthly report
is to be sent to the Area Engineer. These reports will be due within 15 days
after the end of a calendar month. These reports will be required until all DBE
subconti•acting or material supply activity is completed. Form SMS.4903,
"DBE Progress Report," is to be used for monthly reporting. Form.
SMS.4904, "DBE Final Report," is to be used as a final summary of DBE
payments submitted upon completion of the project.
9-11 000--1966
06-10
The original iinal report must be submitted to the OCR and a copy must be
submitted to the Area Engineer. These forms may be obtained from the
Department or may be reproduced by the Contractor. The Department may
verify the amounts being reported as paid to DBEs by requesting copies of
cancelled checics paid to DBEs on a random basis. Cancelled checks and
invoices should reference the Department's project number.
b. DBE subcontractors and/or material suppliers should be identified on the
monthly report by Vendor Number, name, and the amount of actual payment
made to each during the monthly period. Negative reports are required when
no activity has occurred in a monthly period.
c. All such records must be retained for a period of 3 years following completion
of the contract worlc, and shall be available at reasonable times and places for
inspection by authorized representatives of the Department or the DOT.
Provide copies of subcontracts or agreements and other documentation upon
request.
d. Prior to receiving final payment, the Contractor shall submit Form SMS.4904,
"DBE Final Report". If the DBE goal requirement is not met, documentation
supporting Good Faith Efforts, as outlined in Section 1.A.3.c of this Special
Provision, must be submitted with the "DBE Final Report."
e. Provide a certification of prompt payment in accordance with the
Department's prompt payment procedure to certify that all subcontractors and
suppliers were paid from the previous months payments and retainage was
released for those whose worlc is complete. Submit the completed form each
month and the month following the month when final acceptance occurred at
the end of the project.
7. Compliance of Contractor. To ensure that DBE requirements of this DOT
assisted contract are complied with, the Department will monitor the Contractor's
efforts to involve DBEs during the performance of this contract. This will be
accomplished by a review of monthly reports submitted to the Area Engineer by
the Contractor indicating his progress in achieving the DBE contract goal, and by
compliance reviews conducted on the project site by the Department.
The Contractor shall receive credit toward the DBE goal based on actual
payments to the DBE subcontractor. The Contractor shall notify the Area
Engineer if he/she withholds or reduces payment to any DBE subcontractor. The
Contractor shall submit an affidavit detailing the DBE subcontract payments prior
to receiving final payment for the contract.
Contractors' requests for substitutions of DBE subcontractors shall be
accompanied by a detailed explanation which should substantiate the need for a
substitution. The Contractor may not be allowed to count work on those items
being substituted toward the DBE goal prior to approval of the substitution from
the Department.
10-11 000--1966
06-10
The prime Contractor is prohibited from providing worlc crews and equipment to
DBEs. DBE Goal credit for the DBE subcontractors leasing of equipment or
purchasing of supplies from the prime contractor or its affiliates is not allowed.
When a DBE subcontractor named in the commitment under Section 1.A.3.a. of
this Special Provision, is terminated or fails to complete its work on the contract
for any reason, the prime contractor is required to make good faith efforts to find
another DBE subcontractor to substitute for the original DBE. These good faith
efforts shall be directed at finding another DBE to perform at least the same
amount of work under the contract as the DBE that was terminated, to the extent
needed to meet the contract goal.
A Contractor's failure to comply with the requirements of this Special Provision
shall constitute a material breach of this contract. In such a case, the Department
reserves the right to terminate the contract; to deduct the amount of DBE goal not
accomplished by DBEs from the money due or to become due the Contractor, or
to secure a refund, not as a penalty but as liquidated damages to the Department
or such other remedy ar remedies as the Department deems appropriate.
Forward Form 2371, "DBE Trucking Credit Worksheet," completed by the DBE
trucicer every month DBE credit is used.
B. Article B. Race-Neutral Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Participation. It is the
policy of the DOT that Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) as defined in 49
CFR Part 26 Subpart A, be given the opportunity to compete fairly for contracts and
subcontracts financed in whole or in part with Federal funds and that a maximum
feasible portion of the Department's overall DBE goal be met using race-neutral means.
Consequently, if there is no DBE goal, the DBE requirements of 49 CFR Part 26, apply
to this contract as follows:
The Contractor will offer DBEs as defined in 49 CFR Part 26, Subpart A, the
opportunity to compete fairly for contracts and subcontractors financed in whole or in
part with Federal funds. Race-Neutral DBE and non-DBE HUB participation on
projects with no DBE goal shall be reported on Form SMS.4903, "DBE or HUB
Progress Report" and submitted to the Area Engineer each month and at project
completion. Payments to DBEs reported on Form SMS.4903 are subject to the
requirements of Section 1.A.5, "Determination of DBE Participation."
The Contractor, subrecipient or subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of
race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The Contractor
shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in the award and
administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the contractor to carry out these
requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination
of this contract or such other remedy as the recipient deems appropriate.

2.13. Gratuities. Do not offer Department employees benefits, gifts, or favors. The only
exceptions allowed are ordinary business lunches. Failure to honor this policy may result in the
termination of the Contract and sanctions under the Texas Administrative Code. Termination of
the Contract will be in accordance with Article 8.7, "Termination of Contract."
2.14. Tabulating Bids.
A. Official Total Bid Amount. The Department will sum the products of the quantities and the
unit prices bid in the bid form to determine the official total bid amount. Except as provided in
Section 2.14.G, "Special Item Considerations," the official total bid amount is the basis for
determining the apparent low Bidder. The total bid amounts will be compared and the results
made public.
B. Consideration of Bid Format. When a Bidder submits both an electronic bid and a properly
completed manual bid, the unit bid prices in the manual bid will be used to determine the total
bid amount. If a bidder submits an electronic bid and an incomplete manual bid, the electronic
bid will be used in the tabulation of the total bid amount.
If a bidder submits two or more manual bids, all responsive bids will be tabulated. The bid with
the lowest tabulation will be used to determine the total bid amount.
C. Rounding of Unit Prices. The Department will round off all unit bids involving fractional
parts of a cent to the nearest one-tenth cent ($0.001) in determining the amount of the bid as well
as computing the amount due for payment of each Item under the Contract. For rounding
purposes, entries of five-hundredths of a cent ($0.0005) or more will be rounded up to the next
highest tenth of a cent, while entries less than five-hundredths of a cent will be rounded down to
the next lowest tenth of a cent.
D. Interpretation of Unit Prices. The Department will malce a documented determination of the
unit bid price for tabulation purposes if a unit bid price is illegible. The Department's
determination will be final.
E. Consideration of Unit Prices. Unit bid price entries such as no dollars and no cents, zero
dollars and zero cents, or numerical entries of $0.00, will be tabulated as one-tenth of a cent
($0.001).
The Department will consider proposals where unit bid prices have been left blank incomplete
and nonresponsive. If a proposal has a regular and a corresponding alternate Item or group of
Items, the bid will be considered complete if:
• the regular Item or group of regular Items has unit prices entered, or
• the alternate Item or group of alternate Items has unit prices entered.
The bid will be considered incomplete and noru•esponsive if:
• a regular Item or group of regular Items is left blank, and
• a corresponding alternate Item or group of alternate Items is left blanic.
6-8 002---017
02-09
F. Consideration of Alternate Items. The Department will make two calculations using one-
tenth of a cent ($0.001) for each Item if:
• a regular Item or a group of Items have an entry such as no dollars and no cents, zero
dollars and zero cents, or numerical entries of $0.00, and
• a corresponding alternate Item or group of Items, have an entry such as no dollars and no
cents, zero dollars and zero cents, or numerical entries of $0.00.
The Department will select the regular Item or Items or the alternate Item or Items at the
Department's discretion if both the regular and alternate bid results in the same cost to the State.
The Department will use the unit price that is greater than zero for bid tabulation if:
• a unit price greater than zero has been entered for either a regular bid or a corresponding
alternate Item or group of Items, and
• an entry of no dollars and no cents, zero dollars and zero cents, or a numerical entry of
$0.00 has been entered for the other corresponding Item or group of Items.
If a unit price has been entered for both the regular Item and a corresponding alternate Item, the
Department will select the option (regular or alternate) that results in the lowest cost to the State.
The Department will select the regular Item or Items or the alternate Item or Items at the
Department's discretion if both the regular and alternate bid results in the same cost to the State.
G. Special Item Considerations.
l. Rubber Additives. For proposed Contracts without federal funds, if an alternate Item for "Hot
Asphalt-Rubber Surface Treatments" or "Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete Pavement" which contains
ground tire rubber is shown in the bid form and the Bidder bids that alternate Item, the amounts
bid for "Hot Asphalt-Rubber" and "Aggregate" or "Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete" will be reduced
to 85% of the amounts actually bid. This reduction will only be used for the purposes of
determining the lowest Bidder. To qualify, the ground tire rubber used must be produced from
scrap tire ground in a facility in Texas. Payment for "Hot Asphalt-Rubber" and "Aggregate" or
"Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete" will be at the actual unit prices bid.
2. `Buy America." For proposed Contracts where unit bid prices are submitted for both
domestic and foreign steel or iron materials, the total bid amount will be calculated using both
the domestic and foreign steel unit bid prices. If the total bid amount using the foreign steel or
iron materials is the low bid, and the lowest bid using domestic steel or iron materials exceeds
the low bid using foreign steel or iron materials by 25% or more, the apparent low Bidder will be
the bid using foreign steel or iron materials. If the difference between the low bid using foreign
steel or iron materials and the lowest bid using domestic steel or iron materials is less than 25%,
the apparent low Bidder will be the bid using domestic steel or iron materials.
3. Home State Bidding Preference. For the purpose of determining the apparent low Bidder on
proposed Contracts without federal funds, the total bid amount will be based upon the reverse
application of the non-resident Bidder's home state bidding preference, if any.
2.15. Consideration of Bid Errors. The Department will consider a claim of a bid error by the
apparent low Bidder if the following requirements have been met:
7-8 002---017
02-09
� Submit written notification to the Department within 5 business days after the date the
bid is opened.
Identify the Items of work involved and include bidding documentation. The Department
may request clarification of submitted documentation.
The Department will evaluate the claim of an error by the apparent low Bidder by considering
the following:
• The bid error relates to a material Item of work.
• The bid error amount is a significant poi-tion of the total bid.
� The bid eiror occurred despite the exercise of ordinary care.
• The delay of the proposed work will not impact cost and safety to the public.
Acceptance of the bid error claim by the Department will result in the rejection of all bids. The
erring Contractor will not be allowed to bid the project when it is relet. Rejection of bids due to
the Contractor's bid error may result in the application of sanctions by the Department.
2.17. Electronic Bidding. Take responsibility for correctly installing the EBS software. Secure
the digital cer�tificate issued by the department at all times. Promptly report compromised digital
certificates to the Department. Select an Internet Service Provider. The Department will not be
responsible for Internet unavailability. The Department will not provide a computer for
preparing, submitting, revising or withdrawing an electronic bid.
218. Bid Form Content. The electronic and the EBS printed bid form do not contain such
things as the special provisions, special specifications, and general notes. These documents are
included by reference. Manual bid forms (traditional proposals) will include such provisions.

Article 4.4. Requests and Claims for Additional Compensation, Section A., Delay Claims is
voided and replaced by the following:
A. Damages. Damages occur when impacts that are the responsibility of the Department result
in additional costs to the contractor that could not have been reasonably anticipated at the
time of letting. Costs of performing additional work are not considered damages. For
contractor damages, the intent is to reimburse the Contractor for actual expenses arising out
of a compensable impact. No profit or marlcups, other than labor burden, wi11 be allowed.
For damages, labor burden will be reimbursed at 35% unless the Contractor can justify
higher actual cost. Justiiication for a higher percentage must be in accordance with the
methodology provided by the Department, submitted separately for project overhead labor
and direct labor, and determined and submitted by a Certified Public Accountant (CPA).
Submit CPA-prepared labor burden rates directly to the Contract Letting and Contractor
Prequalification Branch of the Construction Division.
1-3 004---017
04-10
1. Delay Damages. If the Contractor requests compensation for delay damages and the
delay is determined to be compensable, then standby equipment costs and project
overhead compensation will be based on the duration of the compensable delay and will
be limited as follows:
a. Standby Equipment Costs.
• Standby costs will not be allowed during periods when the equipment would have
otherwise been idle.
• No more than 8 hr. of standby will be paid during a 24-hr. day, nor more than
40 Yu. per weelc, nor more than 176 hr. per month.
• For Contractor-owned equipment, standby will be paid at 50% of the rental rates
found in the Rental Rate Blue Boolc for Construction Equipment and calculated
by dividing the monthly rate by 176 and multiplying by the regional adjustment
factor and the rate adjustment factor. For leased equipment on standby, 100% of
the invoice cost of the leased equipment will be paid. Operating costs will not be
allowed.
b. Project Overhead. Project overhead is defined as the administrative and supervisoiy
expenses incurred at the worlc locations. When delay to project completion occurs,
reimbursement for project overhead for the prime contractor will be made using the
following options:
• reimbursed at 6% (computed as daily cost by dividing 6% of the original contract
amount by the as-let number of worlcing days) or
• actual documented costs for the impacted period.
Project overhead for delays impacting sub-contractors will be determined from actual
documented costs submitted by the Contractor.
The granting of time extensions and suspensions alone will not be justification for
reimbursement for project overhead.
c. Home Office Overhead. The Department will not compensate the Contractor for
home office overhead.
Article 4.4. Requests and Claims for Additional Compensation, Section B., Dispute or
Claims Procedure is voided and replaced by the following:
B. Dispute or Claims Procedure. Worlc with the Engineer to resolve or escalate all issues in
accordance with the procedures outlined at the pre-construction conference. Establish with
the Engineer an issue escalation ladder and adhere to the following:
l. Project Pledge. At a minimum, Contractor representatives at the level of foreman and
above will certify in writing they will approach the construction of this project in a
manner consistent with delivering a high quality project in a safe, cost-effective, and
timely manner, and they will be committed to not allowing personality conflicts or
personal interests to interfere with providing the public with a quality project. Failure to
uphold this commitment may result in grounds for removal from the project by the
District Engineer.
2-3 004---017
04-10
2. Issue Resolution Process. An issue is any aspect of the contract where representatives
of the participants in the contract do not agree. The individuals identified at the lowest
level of the issue escalation ladder will initiate the issue resolution process by escalating
any issue that remains unresolved within the time frame outlined in the issue escalation
ladder.
Use the Department's automated issue tracicing system to submit and track issues
escalated to the area engineer or above. Do not use the automated issue tracking system
for routine issues resolved on the project.
Once the issue is recorded in the automated issue tracking system, the issue will be
escalated to the district engineer within 15 calendar days.
The district engineer will issue written direction within 7 calendar days.
Worlc with the district to resolve all issues during the course of the contract. In the event the
district and the Contractor cannot resolve an issue, the Contractor may file a contract claim
after the completion of the contract to be handled in accordance with the Department's
contract claim procedure. Contract claims will not be presented to the Contract Claims
Committee for consideration prior to the final payment to the Contractor. It is the
Contractor's responsibility to prove or justify all claims and requests in a timely manner.
The deadline for filing a claim in accordance with 43 TAC Section 9.2, is the earlier of 1 year
after the date of iinal acceptance, date of default, or date of termination except that claims for
warranty enforcement can be made up to 1 year after expiration of the warranty period.

Engineer may suspend work wholly or in part during the testing, removal, or disposition of
hazardous materials on sites owned or controlled by the Department, except in the case of
Section 6.10.A.1.a.
When a visual observation or odor indicates that materials delivered to the work locations by the
Contractor may contain hazardous materials, have an approved commercial laboratory test the
materials for contamination. Remove, remediate, and dispose of any of these materials found to
be contaminated. Testing, removal, and disposition of hazardous materials introduced onto the
work locations by the Contractor will be at the Contractor's expense. Working day charges will
not be suspended and extensions of working days will not be granted for activities related to
handling hazardous material delivered by the Contractor.
A. Painted Steel Requirements. As shown on the plans, existing paint on steel may
contain hazardous materials. Perform work in accordance with the following:
1. Removing Paint from Steel.
1-2 006---030
01-07
a. Cieaning and Painting Steel. For contracts that are primarily for painting
existing steel, perform the work in accordance with Item 446, "Cleaning and
Painting Steel."
b. Other Contracts. For all other projects when an existing paint must be removed
to perform other work, perform paint removal worlc in accordance with Item 446,
"Cleaning and Painting Steel" unless the paint is shown or determined to contain
hazardous materials. If the paint is shown or determined to contain hazardous
materials, the Department will provide for a separate contractor to remove paint
prior to or during the Contract to allow dismantling of the steel for the
Contractor's salvaging, reuse, or recycling or where paint must be removed to
perform other work. For steel that is dismantled by unbolting, no paint stripping
will be required. Use care to not damage existing paint. When dismantling is
performed using flame or saw-cutting methods to remove steel elements coated
with paint containing hazardous materials, the plans will show stripping locations.
Coordinate with the separate contractor for stripping work to be performed during
the Contract.
2. Removal and Disposal of Painted Steel. For Contracts where painted steel is to be
removed and disposed of by the Contractor, painted steel may be reused or disposed
of at a steel recycling or smelting facility. If the paint is shown or determined to
contain hazardous materials, maintain and malce available to the Engineer invoices
and other records showing the reuse owner or for recycling, records obtained from the
recycling or smelting facility showing the received weight of the steel and the facility
name. Painted steel to be retained by the Department will be shown on the plans.
B. Asbestos Requirements. The plans will indicate locations or elements where asbestos
containing materials (ACM) have been found. At these locations or at locations where
previously unknown ACM has been found, the Department will arrange for abatement by
a separate contractor during the Contract. For woric at these locations, notify the Engineer
of proposed dates of demolition or removal of structural elements with ACM at least 60
days before work is to begin to allow the Department sufiicient time to abate the
asbestos.
When the worlc by a separate contractoi• for removal of paint or asbestos abatement is to be
performed during the Contract, provide traffic control as showri on the plans and coordinate and
cooperate with the separate contractor. Continue other work detailed in the plans not directly
involved in the paint removal or asbestos abatement worlc. Coordinate with the Department the
timing of the separate contractor's worlc in advance in order to allow the Department to schedule
worlc with the separate contractor. Worlc for the h•affic control and other worlc will not be paid
for directly but will be subsidiaiy to pertinent Items.

2. RAP. RAP is salvaged, milled, pulverized, broken, or crushed asphalt pavement. Crush or
break RAP so that 100% of the particles pass the 2-in. sieve.
Use of Contractor-owned RAP including HMA plant waste is permitted, unless otherwise
noted in the plans. Department-owned RAP stockpiles are available for the Contractor's use
when the stockpile locations are shown on the plans. Department-owned RAP generated through
required work on the Contract is available for the Contractor's use when shown on the plans.
Perfoi�rn any necessary tests to ensure Contractor or Department-owned RAP is appropriate for
use. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, the Department will not perform any tests or assume
any liability for the quality of the Department-owned RAP.
Fractionated RAP is defined as having 2 or more RAP stockpiles whereas the RAP is
divided into coarse and fine fractions. The coarse RAP stockpile will contain only material
retained by processing over a 3/8 in. screen or 1/2 in. screen unless otherwise approved. The fine
RAP stockpile will contain only material passing the 3/8 in. screen or 1/2 in. screen unless
otherwise approved. The Engineer may allow the Contractor to use an alternate to the 3/8 in.
screen or 1/2 in. screen to fractionate the RAP. The maximum percentages of fractionated RAP
may be comprised of coarse or fine fractionated RAP or the combination of both coarse and fine
fractionated RAP. Utilize a separate cold feed bin for each stockpile of fractionated RAP used.
Determine asphalt content and gradation of RAP stocicpiles for mixture design purposes.
Perform other tests on RAP when shown on the plans. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, use
no more than 10% unfractionated RAP in surface mixtures and no more than 20% unfractionated
RAP in non-surface mixtures that are placed within 8 in. of the final riding surface. Use no more
than 30% unfractionated RAP in non-surface mixtures that are placed 8 in. or more from the
final riding surface. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, use no more than 20% fractionated
RAP in surface mixtures and no more than 30% fractionated RAP in non-surface mixtures that
are placed within 8 in. of the final riding surface. Use no more than 40% fractionated RAP in
non-surface mixtures that are placed 8 in. or more from the final riding surface. "Surface"
mixtures are defined as mixtures that will be the final lift or riding surface of the pavement
structure."Non-Surface" mixtures are defined as mixtures that will be an intermediate or base
layer in the pavement structure. Do not use Department or Contractor owned RAP contaminated
with dirt or other objectionable materials. Do not use Department or Contractor owned RAP if

the decantation value exceeds 5% and the plasticity index is greater than 8. Test the stockpiled
RAP for decantation in accordance with the laboratory method given in Tex-406-A, Part I.
Determine the plasticity index using Tex-106-E if the decantation value exceeds 5%. The
decantation and plasticity index requirements do not apply to RAP samples with asphalt removed
by extraction.
Do not intermingle Contractor-owned RAP stockpiles with Department-owned RAP
stockpiles. Remove unused Contractor-owned RAP material from the project site upon
completion of the project. Return unused Department-owned RAP to the designated stockpile
location.
Article 340.2. Materials, Section A. Aggregate. is supplemented by the following:
4. Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS). The contractor may use post-manufactured RAS or post-
consumer RAS; however, the use of post-consumer RAS may be restricted when shown on
the plans. RAS are defined as processed asphalt shingle material from manufacturing of
asphalt roofing shingles or from re-roofing residential structures. "Post-manufactured RAS"
are processed manufacturer's shingle scrap by-product. "Post-consumer RAS," or "tear-offs,"
are processed shingle scrap removed from residential structures.
Process the RAS by ambient grinding or granulating such that 100% of the particles pass the
1/2 in. sieve when tested in accordance with Tex-200-F, Part I. Add sand meeting the
requirements of Table 1 and Table 2 to RAS stockpiles, if needed, to keep the processed
material worlcable. Use a maximum of 4% sand by weight of RAS. Perform a sieve analysis
on processed RAS material prior to extraction of the asphalt.
Determine asphalt content and gradation of the RAS material for mixture design purposes in
accordance with Tex-236-F. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, use no more than 5%
processed RAS of the total mixture weight. When RAS is used, whether in conjunction with
RAP or not, calculate and ensure the ratio of the virgin binder to total binder is greater than
65% in surface mixtures and 60% in non-surface mixtures. "Surface" mixtures are defined as
mixtures that will be finallifts or riding surfaces of a pavement structure. "Non-Surface"
mixtures are defined as mixtures that will be intermediate or base layers in a pavement
structure. When RAS is used in conjunction with fractionated RAP, use no more than 20%
combined RAS and RAP for surface mixtures, and no more than 30% combined RAS and
RAP in non-surface mixtures, unless otherwise shown on the plans. When RAS is used in
conjunction with un-fractionated RAP, use no more than 10% combined RAS and RAP for
surface mixtures, and no more than 20% combined RAS and RAP in non-surface mixtures,
unless otherwise shown on the plans.
Certify compliance of the RAS with specification DMS-11000, `Bvaluating and Using
Nonhazardous Recyclable Materials Guidelines". If the RAS has not come into contact with
any hazardous materials, treat it as an established NRM. Do not use RAS if deleterious
materials as measured by Tex-217-F, Part I, are more than 1.5% of the stockpiled RAS.

d. Surfaces shall be cured using the same method and different sections (pours)
chemically stained when the concrete is the same age.
e. Immediately prior to chemically staining, thoroughly clean the concrete. Sweep
surfaces, then pressure wash or scrub using a rotaiy floor machine. Use suitable,
high-quality commercial detergents to facilitate cleaning. Rinse surfaces after
cleaning until rinse water is completely clean. Allow floor to dry completely
prior to application of floor stain.
2. Existing Concrete:
a. Clean concrete surfaces so that surfaces are completely penetrable before
receiving the initial application of chemical stain. Test surfaces to receive stain
by spotting with water. Water should immediately darken the substrate and be
readily absorbed. If water beads and does not penetrate or only penetrates in

3. Scoring: Score decorative jointing in concrete surfaces 1/8-inch (3.2 mm) deep with
diamond blades. Rinse until water is completely clean.
C. APPLICATION OF WATER-BASED REACTIVE STA1N
1. Concrete surfaces shall be diy and properly prepared as described above. Protect
sunounding areas from over-spray, run-off and tracking. Divide surfaces into small
worlc sections using wall, joint lines, or other stationaiy brealcs as natural stopping
points.
2. Apply chemical stains full strength (undiluted) at the coverage rate recommended by
the manufacturer and use application equipment described in the manufacturer's
printed technical literature. The color of the liquid chemical stain has no resemblance
to the final color produced on the concrete substrate.
3. Chemical stains normally fizz when reacting with the concrete. If fizzing does not
occur, the stain has not been adequately prepared or the concrete pH level is too low.
If this should happen, contact the manufacturer for further recommendations..
4. Transfer chemical stain to the substrate by brush or spray and immediate scrub into
surface.
5. Reaction time depends on wind conditions, temperatures, and humidity levels.
6. When multiple coats of one or more colors are required, washing and drying between
colors is desirable to evaluate the color prior to the next coat.
7. After the final coat of chemical stain has remained on the surface for a minimum of
four hours, remove all residues by wet scrubbing with commercial grade detergent.
Rinse surfaces after scrubbing until rinse water is completely clean. Run off may stain
the adjacent surfaces or harm plants. Collect all water by wet vacuuming or absorbing
with inert material.
D. APPLICATION OF SEALER
1. Concrete substrate shall be completely dry.
2. Sealer shall be produced by the water-based reactive stain manufacturer.
3. Test surface for proper pH level prior to applying sealer.

3.3 Installation of Cable
3.3.1 General
3.3.1.1 Cables shall be installed in conduit unless indicated as an "overhead" cable
run. Conduit must be continuous, reasonably dry, completely free of
debris, and without sharp projections, edges, or short bends. If required by
the Inspector, the Contractor shall demonstrate that the conduit is diy and
free of debris by pulling a swab and/or mandrel through the conduit. The
conductors shall be installed in a manner so as to insure against harmful
stretching of the conductors or damage to the insulation. Installation
methods shall conform to the recommendations of the cable manufacturer.
The Contractor shall furnish, at the request of the Traffic Services Manager
a copy of the manufacturer's recommendations, which shall include
methods of attaching pull cable, pulling tension per conductor size and per
radius of conduit bend, and the type of lubricant to be used.
3.3.1.2 All cables in a given conduit ilin shall be pulled at the same time and the
conductors shall be assembled to foi�rn one loop in such a manner that the
pulling tension is equally distributed to all the cables. Long, hard pulls will
necessitate the use of pulling eyes. For short runs, the cables may be
gripped directly by the conductors by forming them into a loop to which
the pull wire or rope can be attached. The insulation on each conductor
shall be removed before the loop is formed. The method used will depend
on the anticipated maximum pulling tension in each case.
Detailed Specifications for Street Light Installations — Part F June 2010
City of Fort Worth 16
3.3.1.3 In existing conduit where new cables are to replace existing cables, the exit
cables may be used to pull in the new cables. At locations where new
cables are to be added to existing cable runs, the existing cables shall first
be pulled out, the new cables are to be added to the existing cables to form
one cable pull. Installation and removal shall be done in such a way as to
prevent damage to the existing and/or new cables. In the event of damage,
the Contractor shall bear the responsibility of providing the material and
labor for replacement of defective cables at no extra cost to the City.
3.3.1.4 All conduit runs shall be measured accurately and precisely for
determining cable lengths to be installed. Conduit measurement shall take
place in the presEnce of the Inspector. The Inspector shall record all cable
measurements and include the distances on an as-built drawing. In
locations where new cables are to replace existing cables, the Contractor
may use the removed cables as a measuring device to determine the
lengths of the new cables to be installed. However, this does not relieve
the Contractor of his responsibility to record accurate measurements of all
cable lengths.
3.3.1.5 The manufacturer's recommended maximum pulling tensions shall not be
exceeded under any circumstances. If so required by the Inspector, the
Contractor shall insert a dynamometer in the pull wire as the cables are
being pulled into the conduit to demonstrate that the maximum tensions
are not being exceeded. The cable shall be fed freely off the reel into the
conduit without malcing a reverse curve. At the pulling end, the pull wire
and cables shall be drawn from the conduit in direct line with the conduit.
Sheaves or other suitable devices shall be used as required to reduce any
hazards to the cable dLuing installation. The cables shall be adequately
lubricated to reduce friction and further minimize possible damage. Such
lubricants shall not be the grease or oil type used on lead sheathed cables,
but shall be one of several commercially available wire pulling compounds
that are suitable for PVC sheathed cables. They shall consist of soap, talc,
mica, or similar materials and shall be designed to have no deleterious
effect on the cables being used.
3.3.1.6 Cables shall be neatly trained to their destinations. The Contractor shall
adhere to the cable manufacturer's recommended values for the minimum
bending radii to which cables may be bent for permanent training during
installation. These limits do not apply to conduit bends, sheaves, or other
curved surfaces around which these cables may be pulled under tension
while being installed. Larger radius bends are required for such
conditions.

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 union or non-union.
Union Identifiers
An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with
characters other than "SU" denotes that the union
classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that
classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/O1/2011. The
first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and
the four-digit number, 0198, that follows 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. The date, 07/O1/2011, following these
characters is the effective date of the most current
negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be
July 1, 2011 in the above example.
Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any
changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the
rate.
Non-Union Identifiers
Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived
from survey data by computing average rates and are not union
rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may
include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007
5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union rates, LA
indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the
survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the
wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates
the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued
as a General Wage Determination on that date.
Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change
until a new survey is conducted.
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
Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted
because those Regional O£fices have 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.
