SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of a Construction Contract with 2L Construction L.L.C., in the Amount
of $267,996.83 for Trailhead and Trail Improvements at Trail Drivers Park (COUNCIL

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of a construction contract with 2L
�- Construction L.L.C., in the amount of $267,996.83 for Trailhead and Trail Improvements at Trail
Drivers Park.
� `- DISCUSSION:
In 2000, the City of Fort Worth (City), in partnership with Tarrant Regional Water District, U.S. Army
_ Corp of Engineers and Streams & Valleys, Inc., undertook a comprehensive update to the Master
Plan of the Trinity River and its major tributaries known as the Trinity River Vision. The vision of the
plan was to preserve and enhance the river and its corridors so they remain essential greenways for
open space, trails, neighborhood trail connections, wildlife conservation and special recreational use
— areas. A pciority of the Trinity River Vision Plan is increased connections to adjacent neighborhoods
and parks.
On June 3, 2003, (M&C G-13989) the City Council adopted the Trinity River Vision Master Plan as a
guide for future development along the Trinity River and its major tributaries.
On June 6, 2005, (M&C C-20829) the City Council authorized the execution of City Secretary
__ Contract No. 32107 with Schrickel, Rollins and Associates, Inc. (SRA), in the amount of $82,000.00,
to perform an overall Trail Study within the City. This Study culminated in a prioritization matrix
indicating the highest priority trail connections in the City. This Trail Study, completed in October
2006, identified the Trail Drivers Park Trail Linkage as a high priority connection to link the Diamond
— Hill neighborhood to the Trinity River Trail System.
On July 17, 2007, (M&C C-22255) the City Council authorized Amendment No.1 to City Secretary
Contract No. 32107 with SRA for final design and preparation of construction documents for the Trail
` Drivers Park Neighborhood Trail Linkage to the Trinity River Trail System. SRA's total contract,
including the trail study and preparation of construction documents for the Trail Drivers Park Trail
Linkage, is in the amount of $152,620.00. The cost for the trail study and the design and preparation
of construction documents for the Trail Drivers Park Trail Linkage was funded under the
Transportation and Community and System PreseNation Pilot Program (TCSP) federal grant.
� On January 4, 2011, (M&C G-17175) the City Council approved the Parks and Community Services
-- Department (PACSD) Fiscal Year 2011 Gas Related Revenue Project Expenditure Plan which
included the appropriation in the amount of $320,523.65 in gas bonus funds for construction of trail
� improvements in Trail Drivers Park.

VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative fo the award of aontracts to
non-resident bidders. The law that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, non-resident bidders
(out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the state of
Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or servfces in Texas at an mount lower than
the lowest Texas res(dent bidder by the same ampunt that a Texas resident bidder would be required to
underbfd a non-resident bidder in order to obtaln a comparable contract in the state In which the
non-resldent's principle place of business is located. The appropriate blanks fn Section A must be fllled
out by all out-af-state or non-resident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of
out-of-state or non-resident contractors to do so will i�utomatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders
must check the box fn Sectfon B.
A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are requirad
to be percent lower than resfdent bidders by state law. A copy af the statute is
attached.
Non resident vendors in (give state), or pr(nGipal place of business, are not
required to underbid resident bidders.
B. Our principal place of busfness or carporate affices are in the State of 7'exas. �

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 Ca) C1) C7 i))•
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�he wage
determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical
order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular
rafie is union or non-union.
Union zdentifiers
An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with
characters other than "SU" denotes that the union
classification and rate have found to be prevail-ing for that
classification. Example: P�UM0198-005 07/01/201.1. 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., Piumbers �ocal 0198. The next number, 005 in the
example, is an internal number used in processing the wage
determination. The date, 07/0�./2011, following these
characters is the effective date of the most current
negot-iated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be
.7u1 y l, 20�.1. i n the above ex�mpl e. �
Union prevailing wage rates wi11 be updated to re�lect 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 ra�es and are not union
rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may
include ba�h union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007
5/13/2010. SU ind�cates the rates are not union rates, �A
indicates -Che state of �ouisiana; 2004 is the year of the
survey; and 007 -is an internal number used �n producin� the
wage determination. A 1993 or later date; 5/13/20�.0, �ndicates
the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued
as a General wage �etermination on that date.
Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change

2004 Specifications
SPECIAL PROVISION
000---004
Notice of Requirement for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment
Oppoi•tunity (Executive Order 1.1.246)
1. Generai. 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 belaw.
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-
cen t) cen t)
See Table 1 6.9
c. These goals are applicable to all the Contractor's construction work (whether or not it is
Federal or federally assisted) performed in the covered area. Tf the Contractor performs
construction work in a geographical area located outside af the covered area, it shall
apply the goals established far 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 Exeeutive Order and the regulations in 41 CFR Part
60-4 shall be based on its implementation ofthe Standard Federal Equal Emptoyment
Opportunity Construction Contract Speciitcations Special Provision and its efforts to
meet the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must be
substantiafly uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the
Contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and wonnen 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
05-04
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
Af�rmative 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
patrticipating trade in tl�e plan i�� which it has employees, The overall good
performance of other contractors and subcontractors toward a goai in an approved plan
does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's failure to make good faith
efforts to achieve the goals contained in these provisions, Contractors or subcontractors
participating in the plan must be a61e to demonstrate their participation and document
their compliance with the provisions of this Plan.
3. Su6contracting. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Department within
10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier
for construction work unde►• 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; etnployer identification number; estimated dallar amount of
the subcontract; estiznated 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 ].
5. Reports. The Contractor is hereby notified that he may be subject to the Of�ce of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) reporting and record keeping requirements as
provided for under Exec�ative Order 11246 as amended. O�CCp will provide direct notice

excess of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains the
app�icable goals for minoz•ity and feznale 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 cover•ed area either individually or through an
association, its affirmative action obligations on a11 work in the Plan area (including goals

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 take good faith eiforts to achieve the Plan
goals and timetables.
4. The Contractor shall i►nplement the speeific affirmative action standards provided in
paragraphs �a through p of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from

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 Contraetor's obligations under these specifications, Executive
Order 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworking 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
employrnent opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs

extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and
coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the Contractor's etnployees are
assigned to work. 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 rninority or female individuals working 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 llave employment

and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a
recruiiment source or• community organization and of what action was taken with
respect to each such individual. If such individua! was sent to the union hiring halt for
referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not
employed hy the Contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason
therefor, along with �vhatever additional actions the Contractor may have taken.
ci. Provide immediate written notiftcation 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 foc
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 fiinded or approved by the Department of Labor. The

above,
f. Disseminate the Contraetor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions
and training programs and requesting their cooperatioa 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 specifc 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 loeation where construction work is
performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations
under these speci�cations with all employees liaving any responsibility for hiring,
assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific

the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the selection process.
j. Encoura�e 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 fema(e yotith both on the site and in other areas of a Contractor's
workforce.
k. Validate ail tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so
under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
l. 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, work 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

minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of
solicitations to nninority 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 a�rmative 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 Specifications provided that the contractor
actively participates in the group, makes every 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
workforce participation, makes a good faith effort to rneet its individual goals and
timetables, and can provide access to docurnentation which demonstrates the effectiveness
of actions taken 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 take
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 rnanner (for
example, even though the Contractor has achieved its goa(s for women general(y, the
Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women
is underutilized).
l0. Nondiscrimination programs require that Federal-aid recipients, subrecipients, and
contractors prevent discrimination and ensure nondiscrimination in alt of their programs and
activities, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not. The factors
prohibited fram 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.

Goven�ment contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanetions 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 specifications and Executive Order ] 1246, as
amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these speci�cations, shall implement
specifc affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in
paragraph 7 of these specifieations, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to
ensure equal employment apportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the
requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications,
the Director shal) proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
14. The Gontractor 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,

taborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of
pay, and locations. at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in an
easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that existing records
satisfy this requirement, contractors shaIl 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., tl�ose under the Public Works
Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant Program).

completed Form SMS.4901 "DBE Commitment Agreement", Fxom SMS
4901-T "DBE Trucking Comtnitment Agreement", or Form SMS.4901-MS
"DBE Material & Supplier Commitment Agreement" 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 anive in the Department's Office of Civil
Rights (OCR) in Austin, Texas not later than 5:00 p.m. an the l 0�' 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 work 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
nnake 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.
s Soliciting through all reasonable and available means (e.g. attendance at
prebid meetings, advertising, and/or written notices) the interest of aIl
certified DBEs who have the capability to perform the work of the
contract. The solicitation must be done within sufficient time to allow the
DBEs to respond to it. Appropriate steps must be taken 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 tile DBE goals will be achieved. This includes,
whei•e apprapriate, breaking out contract work items into economically
feasible units to facilitate DBE participation, even when the Contractor
might otherwise prefer to perform the work items with its own forces.
• Pi•oviding interested DBEs with adequate inforrnation about the plans,
specif cations, 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 avai(able to DBE subcontractors and suppliers and select those
portions of the work 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
infonnation provided regarding the plans and specifications for the work
selected for subcontracting; and evidence as to why additional agreements
could not be reached for DBEs to perform the work.
� A Bidder using good business judgment would consider a nu�nber of
factors in negotiating with subcontractors, including DBE subcontractors,
and would take a firm price and capabilities as well as contract goals into
consideration. Hawever, the fact that there may be some additional cost
involved in finding and using DBEs is not in itself sufficient reason for a
bidders failure to meet the Contract DBE goal as Iong as such cost are
reasonable. A(so, the ability or desire of the Contractor to perform the
work 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 or social affiliations (for example union vs. non-
unian employee status) are not legitimate cause for the rejection or non-
solicitation of bids and the Contractors efforts to meet the project goal.
• Making efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining bonding, lines of
credit, or insurance as required by the recipient or Contractor.
• Making efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining necessary
equipment, supplies, materials, or related assistance or services.
• Effectively using the services of available minority/women community
organizations; minoritylwomen Contractors' groups; 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.

• 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 filed with the bid shall become the
property of the state, nat 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. 1 lth Street, Austin, Texas
78701-2483.
f. The Contractor shall not terminate for canvenience 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
connpleted Form 4901 "DBE Commitment Agreement", Frozn SMS 4941-T
"DBE Trucking Commitcnent Agreement", ar Form SMS.49Q1-MS "DBE
Material & Supplier Commitment Agreement" for the substitute DBE firm(s).
Any substitution of DBEs shall be subject to approval by the Department.
Prior to approving the substitution, the Department will reguest a statement
from the DBE concerning it being replaced.
h. The Contractor shall designate a DBE liaison officer 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 encouxaged to investigate the services offered by banks owned
and controlled by disadvantaged individuals and to make use of these banks
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 financially assisted
contracts.
b. The Department maintains the Texas Uni�ed Certification Program DBE
Directory containing the names of firms that have been certified to be eligible
to participate as DBE's on DOT finaneially assisted contracts. This Direetory
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.

c. Only DBE firms certified at the time commitments are submitted are eligible
to be used in the iiaformation 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 work in the categories of work for
which they are certified.
d. Only DBE firms certified at the time of execution of a
contracUsubcontracdpurchase order, are eligibie for DBE goal participation,
5. Determination of DBE Participation. When a DBE participates in a contract,
only the values of the work actually per#'ormed 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 work performed with his/her own forces
is counted toward the DBE goal. When a DBE subcontracts part of the work
of its contract to another firm, the value of the subcontracted work may be
counted toward DBE goals only if the subcontractor is itself a DBE. Work
that a DBE subcontracts to a non-DBE firm does not count toward DBE goals.
b. A Contractor may count toward its DBE goal a portion of the total value of
the contract amount paid to a DBE joint venture equal to the distinct, clearly
defined portion of the work 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 work of a
contract or purchase order. A DBE is considered to perform a CUF
when it is responsible for execution of the work of the contract and is
carrying out its respor�sibilities 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 �9 CFR Part 26, Appendix A, guidance concerning
Good Paith Efforts, contractors may make 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 170T/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. Tf a DBE does not perform or
exercise responsibility for at least 30% of the total cost of iis contract
with its own work 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 �rm (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 trucks
it owns, insures, and opecates using drivers it employs.
(b) The DBE may lease trucks from anotkzer 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) T'he DBE may also lease trucks from a non-DBE firm, including
fram 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
]ease arrangement
(d) A(ease must indicate that the DBE has exclusive use of and
control over the trucks giving the DBE absolute priority for use of
the Ieased 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 frotn an affiliate of the prime
contractor can not directly or indirectly (2°d or lower tier subcontractor)
be used for DBE goa] credit.

c. A Contractor may count toward its DBE goals expenditures for materiats 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 ar supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, count
100% of the cost of the materials or supplies toward DBE goals.
(Deftnition of a DBE manufacturer found at lA.c.(1) of this provision.)
For purposes of this Section (I .A.c.(1)), a manufacturer is a firm 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 speci�ications.
(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 purposes of this Section (1.A.S.c.(2)), a regular dealer is a firm that
owns, operates, or nnaintains a store, warehouse, ar other establishment in
which the materials, supplies, articles or equipment of the genaral
charaeter described by the specifications and required under the contract
are bought, kept in stock, 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 questian.
(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 I,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) Packagers, brokers, manufacturers' representatives, or other persons
who arrange or expedite trans.actions 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 far assistance in the procurement of the
materials and supplies, or fees or transportation charges for the delivery of
materials or supp(ies required on a job site, toward DBE goals, provided
you deterrnine 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 firm
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 #'ees customarily allowed for similar
services.
d. If the Contractor chooses to assist a DBE firm, 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 check for
payment of materials to be used on the project by the DBE. The tnaterial
supplier must iavoice 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 frm must 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 nnust obtain approval from the Department prior to
implementing the use of joint check arrangements with the DBE. Submit to
the Department, Joint Check Approval Form 21�8 for requesting ap�roval.
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 Re�orts.
a. The Contractor shall submit monfhly 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 �vill be required until all DBE
subcontrae,ting 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 final 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 Depa►-tment may
verify the atnounts being reported as paid to DBEs by requesting copies of
cancelled checks 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

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

1. Delay Damages. lf 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 wil) not be allowed during periods when the equipment would have
otherwise been idle.
• No more than 8 hr, of standby wil) be paid during a 24-hr. day, nor more than
40 hr. per week, nor more than 176 hr. per month.
• For Contractor-owned eguipment, standby will be paid at 50% of the rentai rates
found in the Rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment and calculated
by dividing the monthly rate by 176 and nnultiplying 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 supervisory
expenses incurred at the work 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 working days) or
• actual documented costs for tha impacted period.
Project overhead for delays impacting sub-contractors will be determined froin 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. Honne 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:
