Authorize the execution of a contract with Conatser Construction TX, LP, in the amount of $1,988,779.45 for paving, drainage, and street light improvements along Avondale Haslet Road from 700 feet east of Haslet Court, Water Tank Site to Willow Creek Drive; and 2. Authorize the execution of a Railroad Crossing Agreement with Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Company in the amount of $599,939.00 for a new Quiet Zone crossing for Avondale Haslet Road. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the execution of a contract with Conatser Construction TX, LP, in the amount of $1,988,779.45 for paving, drainage, and street light improvements, from 700 feet east of Haslet Court (Water Department Tank Site) to Willow Creek Drive and authorize a Railroad Crossing Agreement with Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Company (BNSF) in the amount of $599,939.00 for a new Quiet Zone crossing for Avondale Haslet Road. The construction of Avondale Haslet Road project is divided into two phases. Phase 1, from US 287 Frontage Road to 700 feet east of Haslet Court (Water Tank Site), was approved for construction by (M&C C-25039) on July 19, 2011. Phase 1 is being constructed through a Community Facilities Agreement with Wal-Mart Stores Texas, LLC. Avondale Haslet Road Improvements Phase 2 limits are from the Water Tank Site to Willow Creek Drive across the existing BNSF rail line. A part of the overall improvements planned for this roadway is to provide improvements to the existing rail crossing from two lanes to a four lane crossing and will improve the roadway to cross this rail line in accordance with railroad safety requirements for quiet zone installations. These improvements will allow this crossing to be converted to a Quiet Zone. Plans have been provided to BNSF and an Agreement in the amount of $599,939.00 is required for new signals and a wider crossing on the BNSF property. As part of its contract, Conatser Construction TX, LP, construction contract will provide traffic flagging which will be required during construction. This project was advertised for bid in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on September 27, 2012 and October 4, 2012 and on October 25, 2012 the following four bids were received: http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=1... 1/16/2013 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 Bidder 0 Amount Conatser Construction TX, LP I( $1,988,779.45 IJLB Contracting, LLC J $2,001,446.74 (McClendon Construction Co., Inc. II $2,115,726.40 (Jackson Construction, Ltd. 1 $2,427,919.60 The City has chosen not to exercise the Optional Bid Alternative specified in the bid documents, therefore, the low base bid from Conatser Construction TX, LP, was the overall low bidder for this project. The bid alternative was to install an asphalt overlay on White Settlement Road. In addition to the construction costs shown above, an additional amount of $282,206.00 will allow for typical contingencies and City and Consultant furnished construction services for a total project cost in the amount of $2,870,924.45. Conatser Construction TX, LP, is in compliance with the City's Business Diversity Ordinance by committing to 12 percent MBE participation on this project. The City's MBE goal on this project is 10 percent. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7, Mapsco 4V and 5S. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies funds are available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Street Improvements 2008 Fund.

NO. 6306 CITY PROJECT NO. 01414 ADDENDUM RELEASE DATE: October 17, 2012 BIDS RECEIVED DATE: October 25, 2012 INFORMATION TO BIDDERS: The Plans, Specifications and Contract Documents for the above referenced project are hereby revised and amended as follows: 1. SECTION 00 11 13-1 INVITATION TO BIDDERS Page 1 of 2 Bid Date is hereby revised front Thursday October 1e. 2012 to Thursday October 25th. 2012. 2. A pre -bid meeting was held on 10/9/2012 and the following items were discussed: a. BNSF permit approval for construction of north retaining wall within BNSF ROW is pending and is anticipated to be acquired prior to start of construction. b. Sign -in sheet from the pre -bid meeting is included with this addendum. 3. The following items are RFIs that came up during bidding and the responses given: a. Q: Does the City require paint or thermoplastic on all permanent pavement markings? A: Yes all permanent pavement markings shall be thermoplastic in accordance with City standard specification 32 17 23. b. Q: What is the timing of the west phase project and will it be completed in time for the tie-in to the east phase? A: The west phase of Avondale Haslet is being constructed as a CFA with Wal-Mart. The start of construction is anticipated to be before the construction starts for the east phase project. Coordination will be required between the west phase Contractor and the east phase Contractor during construction with regards to the connection between the two phases and traffic control as needed. No additional compensation will be provided for this coordination, this will be considered subsidiary to all other bid items in this project. c. Q: The unclassified excavation quantity in the paving section is small and the borrow quantity is large, but the channel excavation quantity in the drainage section almost balances the two. Is it the City's intention to use the channel excavation spoil to make the roadway fill? The geotech report on Page 10 indicates that site fill should AVONDALE-HASLET ROAD — EAST ADDENDUM #1 consist of onfite material "approved by the Soils Engineer". Will the excavation from the channel be approved? If so, will it be paid for in the paving section as "Borrow"? A: If the unclassified excavated material from the channel is acceptable per City standard specification for borrow then it may be used for the roadway fill. d. Q: If channel excavation is to be used to make the roadway fill, could we allow for an additional bid item in the Paving section for offsite borrow material to be brought in if needed, or if the channel excavation material is deemed unsuitable or insufficient for the fill requirements? A: There is currently a bid item named "Fill -borrow' that assumes that if the fill excavated from the channel is deemed unacceptable and soil has to be imported on site, this bid item may be used. e. Q: If channel excavation is to be used for roadway fill, could we be allowed an additional bid item for offsite disposal of any channel excavation material that is deemed unsuitable for fill in the roadway? A: Per City specification for unclassified excavation any necessary hauling or removal of excess material from the site is covered in this bid item. f. Q: Will the 6-12" tree removal item in the "Demo" section be applied to the trees that will be removed in digging the channel? My site visit yesterday appears to determine that there will be a fairly large clearing area required to dig the channel. The drainage section does not have a bid item for clearing or stripping? g. A: A bid item for site clearing along the channel will be added to the project. Q: Could the bid item for "Topsoil" be changed to "Imported Topsoil", or is it expected that part of the channel excavation may be usable as topsoil? I don't find any specifications for the topsoil material, and there appears to be insufficient information to determine if in situ material could be used for this. Ideally, I think this item should be pre -bid and limited to pay for necessary imported material only? A: A bid item for topsoil per City specification 32 91 19 is included in the proposal section. h. Regarding the railroad work, it appears that the railroad (per the ANA plans that are attached to Dunaway's plans) will be performing all the work of removing and replacing the crossing pads, signal gates, and other items. If so, then what work effort is the Contractor expected to bid for the items of "Railroad Coordination ", "Railroad Concrete Crossing", "Railroad Signals", and "Railroad Detour Plan"? A: Railroad Coordination — Refer To CFW Specification 01 35 13 Special Procedures Railroad Concrete Crossing — This bid item will be removed from the proposal as this work will be done by the railroad company. Railroad Signals — This bid item will be removed from the proposal as this work will be done by the railroad company. Addendum No. 1 AVONDALE-HASLET ROAD — EAST ADDENDUM #1 "Railroad Detour Plan" — This item is required by the railroad company during the installation and testing of the concrete panels. The entire Avondale Haslet Rd will need to be closed down and a detour plan will need to be provided in accordance with City specification for traffic control detour plan? i. Q: The ANA plans show a railroad header with 12" HMAC connection to the concrete pads to be installed. I find no bid items in the bid sheet for railroad header or 12" HMAC? j• A: A bid item will be adde d to the project. Q: Typically the other railroad -related item, "Railroad Flagging", has been a pre -bid amount to be paid to the Contractor on a reimbursement basis. It is unlikely that any contractor could provide a meaningful cost estimate for this activity, and would likely quote a large price that might wind up charging the city more than the actual cost. Could this item be pre -bid as it has been in the past? k. A: This bid item will be revised to become a pre -bid item. 1. Q: There is a requirement for temporary earth retaining wall in the traffic control plans, but there is no bid item provided for this. It could be considered a subsidiary item if that is the City's choice, but it is a rather large item of cost and these are usually broken out for separate pay so that the City can save money if the quantity can be reduced in the field. A: This bid item will be added to the project. m. Q: There is also a requirement for LPCB in the traffic control plan. Like the temporary earth retaining wall, this should likely be a separate pay item, priced per LF, to be used as directed when the project is under construction, to assure that the City could take advantage of the savings if some or all of the item is not needed. In fact, the plans, on Sheet 80, show the LPCB used adjacent to the temp earth retaining wall, in a situation where it appears the much less expensive plastic drums could be used, as there is no risk of traffic going over an unprotected edge in this situation? A: This bid item will be added to the project. The use of the LPCB on sheet 80 is designed to protect the wall from vehicular traffic and not as a result of a drop off scenario. n. Q: 6" Doweled on Curb for Median Pavers bid item appears to be missing from the proposal? A: Per City specification the bid item is considered subsidiary to concrete paving. 4.

Work described in the Contract Documents, or reasonably inferred as required for a functionally complete installation, but not identified in the listing of unit price items shall be considered incidental to unit price work listed and the cost of incidental work included as part of the unit price. D. City may make an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with Paragraph 12.01 if: 1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Agreement; and 2. there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work. E. Increased or Decreased Quantities: The City reserves the right to order Extra Work in accordance with Paragraph 10.01. 1. If the changes in quantities or the alterations do not significantly change the character of work under the Contract Documents, the altered work will be paid for at the Contract unit price. CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 00 72 00 - 1 General Conditions Page 45 of 63 2. If the changes in quantities or alterations significantly change the character of work, the Contract will be amended by a Change Order. 3. If no unit prices exist, this will be considered Extra Work and the Contract will be amended by a Change Order in accordance with Article 12. 4. A significant change in the character of work occurs when: a. the character of work for any Item as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that in the Contract or b. a Major Item of work varies by more than 25% from the original Contract quantity. 5. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is more than 125% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request an adjustment to the unit price on the portion of the work that is above 125%. 6. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is less than 75% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request an adjustment to the unit price. 11.04 Plans Quantity Measurement A. Plans quantities may or may not represent the exact quantity of work performed or material moved, handled, or placed during the execution of the Contract. The estimated bid quantities are designated as final payment quantities, unless revised by the governing Section or this Article. B. If the quantity measured as outlined under "Price and Payment Procedures" varies by more than 25% (or as stipulated under "Price and Payment Procedures" for specific Items) from the total estimated quantity for an individual Item originally shown in the Contract Documents, an adjustment may be made to the quantity of authorized work done for payment purposes. The party to the Contract requesting the adjustment will provide field measurements and calculations showing the final quantity for which payment will be made. Payment for revised quantity will be made at the unit price bid for that Item, except as provided for in Article 10. C. When quantities are revised by a change in design approved by the City, by Change Order, or to correct an error, or to correct an error on the plans, the plans quantity will be increased or decreased by the amount involved in the change, and the 25% variance will apply to the new plans quantity. D. If the total Contract quantity multiplied by the unit price bid for an individual Item is less than $250 and the Item is not originally a plans quantity Item, then the Item may be paid as a plans quantity Item if the City and Contractor agree in writing to fix the final quantity as a plans quantity. CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 46 of 63 E. For callout work or non -site specific Contracts, the plans quantity measurement requirements are not applicable. ARTICLE 12 — CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE; CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIME 12.01 Change of Contract Price A. The Contract Price may only be changed by a Change Order. B. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order will be determined as follows: 1. where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by application of such unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 11.03); or 2. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by a mutually agreed lump sum or unit price (which may include an allowance for overhead and profit not necessarily in accordance with Paragraph 12.01.C.2), and shall include the cost of any secondary impacts that are foreseeable at the time of pricing the cost of Extra Work; or 3. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and agreement to a lump sum or unit price is not reached under Paragraph 12.01.B.2, on the basis of the Cost of the Work (determined as provided in Paragraph 11.01) plus a Contractor's fee for overhead and profit (determined as provided in Paragraph 12.01.C). C. Contractor's Fee: The Contractor's additional fee for overhead and profit shall be determined as follows: 1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or 2. if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a fee based on the following percentages of the various portions of the Cost of the Work: a. for costs incurred under Paragraphs 11.01.A.1, 11.01.A.2. and 11.01.A.3, the Contractor's additional fee shall be 15 percent except for: 1) rental fees for Contractor's own equipment using standard rental rates; 2) bonds and insurance; b. for costs incurred under Paragraph 11.01.A.4 and 11.01.A.5, the Contractor's fee shall be five percent (5%); 1) where one or more tiers of subcontracts are on the basis of Cost of the Work plus a fee and no fixed fee is agreed upon, the intent of Paragraphs 12.01.C.2.a and 12.01.C.2.b is that the Subcontractor who actually performs the Work, at whatever CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 47 of 63 tier, will be paid a fee of 15 percent of the costs incurred by such Subcontractor under Paragraphs 11.01.A.1 and 11.01.A.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor and Contractor will each be paid a fee of five percent (5%) of the amount paid to the next lower tier Subcontractor, however in no case shall the cumulative total of fees paid be in excess of 25%; c. no fee shall be payable on the basis of costs itemized under Paragraphs 11.01.A.6, and 11.O1.B; d. the amount of credit to be allowed by Contractor to City for any change which results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease in cost plus a deduction in Contractor's fee by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such net decrease. 12.02 Change of Contract Time A. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order. B. No extension of the Contract Time will be allowed for Extra Work or for claimed delay unless the Extra Work contemplated or claimed delay is shown to be on the critical path of the Project Schedule or Contractor can show by Critical Path Method analysis how the Extra Work or claimed delay adversely affects the critical path. 12.03 Delays A. Where Contractor is reasonably delayed in the performance or completion of any part of the Work within the Contract Time due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Time may be extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a Contract Claim is made therefor. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts or neglect by City, acts or neglect of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, or acts of God. Such an adjustment shall be Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for the delays described in this Paragraph. B. If Contractor is delayed, City shall not be liable to Contractor for any claims, costs, losses, or damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by Contractor on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project. C. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Time for delays within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor. D. The Contractor shall receive no compensation for delays or hindrances to the Work, except when direct and unavoidable extra cost to the Contractor is caused by the failure of the City to provide information or material, if any, which is to be furnished by the City.

D. Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected or removed and replaced under this Paragraph 13.07, the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work may be required to be extended for an additional period of one year after the end of the initial correction period.

Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or other dispute resolution costs) attributable to City's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work and for the diminished value of the Work to the extent not otherwise paid by Contractor.

Processing any such payment will not thereby be deemed to have represented that: a. inspections made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work as it has been performed have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to City in the Contract Documents; or b. there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor to be paid additionally by City or entitle City to withhold payment to Contractor, or c. Contractor has complied with Laws and Regulations applicable to Contractor's performance of the Work. 4. City may refuse to process the whole or any part of any payment because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, and revise or revoke any such payment previously made, to such extent as may be necessary to protect City from loss because: a. the Work is defective, or the completed Work has been damaged by the Contractor or his subcontractors, requiring correction or replacement; b. discrepancies in quantities contained in previous applications for payment; c. the Contract Price has been reduced by Change Orders; d. City has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with Paragraph 13.09; or CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 54 of 63 e.

D. Liquidated Damages. For each calendar day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the time specified in the Contract Documents, the sum per day specified in the Agreement, will be deducted from the monies due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages suffered by the City. E. Payment: Contractor will be paid pursuant to the requirements of this Article 14 and payment will become due in accordance with the Contract Documents. F. Reduction in Payment: 1. City may refuse to make payment of the amount requested because: a. Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, except where Contractor has delivered a specific bond satisfactory to City to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens; b. there are other items entitling City to a set-off against the amount recommended; or c. City has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in Paragraphs 14.02.B.4.a through 14.02.B.4.e or Paragraph 15.02.A. 2. If City refuses to make payment of the amount requested, City will give Contractor written notice stating the reasons for such action and pay Contractor any amount remaining after deduction of the amount so withheld. City shall pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to by City and Contractor, when Contractor remedies the reasons for such action. 14.03 Contractor's Warranty of Title Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to City no later than the time of payment free and clear of all Liens.

Upon written notice from Contractor that the entire Work is complete in accordance with the Contract Documents: 1. within 10 days, City will schedule a Final Inspection with Contractor. 2. City will notify Contractor in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective.

After all Damage Claims have been resolved: a. directly by the Contractor or; b. Contractor provides evidence that the Damage Claim has been reported to Contractor's insurance provider for resolution. 3. The making of the final payment by the City shall not relieve the Contractor of any guarantees or other requirements of the Contract Documents which specifically continue thereafter. 14.08 Final Completion Delayed and Partial Retainage Release A. If final completion of the Work is significantly delayed, and if City so confirms, City may, upon receipt of Contractor's final Application for Payment, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be held by City for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in Paragraph 14.02.C, and if bonds have been furnished as required in Paragraph 5.02, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 57 of 63 portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by Contractor to City with the Application for such payment.

For a Contract that provides for a separate vegetative establishment and maintenance, and test and performance periods following the completion of all other construction in the Contract Documents for all Work locations, the City may release a portion of the amount retained provided that all other work is completed as determined by the City. Before the release, all submittals and final quantities must be completed and accepted for all other work. An amount sufficient to ensure Contract compliance will be retained. 14.09 Waiver of Claims The acceptance of final payment will constitute a release of the City from all claims or liabilities under the Contract for anything done or furnished or relating to the work under the Contract Documents or any act or neglect of City related to or connected with the Contract. ARTICLE 15 — SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION 15.01 City May Suspend Work A. At any time and without cause, City may suspend the Work or any portion thereof by written notice to Contractor and which may fix the date on which Work will be resumed. Contractor shall resume the Work on the date so fixed. During temporary suspension of the Work covered by these Contract Documents, for any reason, the City will make no extra payment for stand-by time of construction equipment and/or construction crews.

Should the Contractor not be able to complete a portion of the Project due to causes beyond the control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, and should it be determined by mutual consent of the Contractor and City that a solution to allow construction to proceed is not available within a reasonable period of time, Contractor may request an extension in Contract Time, directly attributable to any such suspension. C. If it should become necessary to suspend the Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall store all materials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily nor become damaged in any way, and he shall take every precaution to prevent damage or deterioration of the work performed; he shall provide suitable drainage about the work, and erect temporary structures where necessary.

If one or more of the events identified in Paragraph 15.02A. occur, City will provide written notice to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address Contractor's failure to perform the Work. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after receipt of notice. 1. If the City, the Contractor, and the Surety do not agree to allow the Contractor to proceed to perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, declare a Contractor default and formally terminate the Contractor's right to complete the Contract. Contractor default shall not be declared earlier than 20 days after the Contractor and Surety have received notice of conference to address Contractor's failure to perform the Work. 2. If Contractor's services are terminated, Surety shall be obligated to take over and perform the Work. If Surety does not commence performance thereof within 15 consecutive calendar days after date of an additional written notice demanding Surety's performance of its CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 59 of 63 obligations, then City, without process or action at law, may take over any portion of the Work and complete it as described below. a. If City completes the Work, City may exclude Contractor and Surety from the site and take possession of the Work, and all materials and equipment incorporated into the Work stored at the Site or for which City has paid Contractor or Surety but which are stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as City may deem expedient. 3. Whether City or Surety completes the Work, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order, provided that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. 4. Neither City, nor any of its respective consultants, agents, officers, directors or employees shall be in any way liable or accountable to Contractor or Surety for the method by which the completion of the said Work, or any portion thereof, may be accomplished or for the price paid therefor. 5. City, notwithstanding the method used in completing the Contract, shall not forfeit the right to recover damages from Contractor or Surety for Contractor's failure to timely complete the entire Contract. Contractor shall not be entitled to any claim on account of the method used by City in completing the Contract. 6. Maintenance of the Work shall continue to be Contractor's and Surety's responsibilities as provided for in the bond requirements of the Contract Documents or any special guarantees provided for under the Contract Documents or any other obligations otherwise prescribed by law. C. Notwithstanding Paragraphs 15.02.B, Contractor's services will not be terminated if Contractor begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice. D. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability. E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this Article.

C. At a time not later than 30 days after the termination date specified in the notice of termination, the Contractor may submit to the City a list, certified as to quantity and quality, of any or all items of termination inventory not previously disposed of, exclusive of items the disposition of which has been directed or authorized by City. CITY OF FORT WORTH STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFCATION DOCUMENTS Revision: August 17, 2012 007200-1 General Conditions Page 61 of 63 D.

E. Not later than 60 days after the notice of termination, the Contractor shall submit his termination claim to the City in the form and with the certification prescribed by the City. Unless an extension is made in writing within such 60 day period by the Contractor, and granted by the City, any and all such claims shall be conclusively deemed waived. F. In such case, Contractor shall be paid for (without duplication of any items): 1. completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents prior to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such Work; 2. expenses sustained prior to the effective date of termination in performing services and furnishing labor, materials, or equipment as required by the Contract Documents in connection with uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such expenses; and 3. reasonable expenses directly attributable to termination. G. In the event of the failure of the Contractor and City to agree upon the whole amount to be paid to the Contractor by reason of the termination of the Work, the City shall determine, on the basis of information available to it, the amount, if any, due to the Contractor by reason of the termination and shall pay to the Contractor the amounts determined. Contractor shall not be paid on account of loss of anticipated profits or revenue or other economic loss arising out of or resulting from such termination.

City and Contractor shall participate in the mediation process in good faith. The process shall be commenced within 60 days of filing of the request. C.

The general location and orientation of the streets is presented on Plate A.1 in Appendix A of the report. This study was performed in support of the design of Avondale -Haslet Road Widening. Avondale -Haslet Road This report was prepared in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standards Manual (the manual), and the pavement design was performed using the AASHTO Guide for the Design of Pavement Structures guidelines (current edition). PURPOSES AND SCOPE OF STUDY The principal purposes of this investigation were to evaluate the general subsurface conditions at Avondale -Haslet Road, and to develop geotechnical recommendations for the design and construction of the new pavement. To accomplish its intended purposes, the study was conducted in the following phases: (1) locate and clear utilities at the proposed boring locations; (2) drill sample borings to evaluate the soil conditions at these locations and to obtain soil samples; (3) conduct laboratory tests on selected samples recovered from the borings to establish the pertinent engineering characteristics of the subgrade materials; and (4) perform engineering analyses, using field and laboratory data, to develop pavement design criteria. Project No. 10-1467 Page 1 ENC}I EERS FIELD OPERATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTING Subsurface conditions were evaluated by advancing a total of 6 sample borings, drilled to depths of about 10 feet below existing grades. The borings were drilled on February 24, 2010. Sample depths, descriptions of soils/rock, and classifications (based on the Unified Soil Classification System) are presented on the Log of Boring, Plates A.2 through A.7. Key to classification and symbols used on the Log of Boring are shown on Plates A.8 and A.9. Laboratory tests were performed on selected samples recovered from the borings to verify visual classification and determine the pertinent engineering properties of the soils encountered. Unconsolidated- Undrained (UU) triaxial shear tests were performed on selected clay samples to determine the strength of the subgrade soils to be used in the estimation of the California Bearing Ratio (CBR). Classification and strength test results are presented on the Log of Boring. Swell tests were performed on selected clay samples to evaluate the swell potential of the subgrade soils. The samples were incrementally air dried prior to testing in order to bring their moisture contents to at or below the Plastic Limit, in order to simulate swelling from a dry condition. Many of the soils sampled during this study contained limestone fragments and/or sand which affected the test results. Swell test results are presented on Plate A.10. Descriptions of the procedures used in the field and laboratory phases of this study are presented in Appendix B of this report. GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS Surface Conditions The project site consists of an existing road, which is currently paved with asphaltic concrete (AC). Information on the thickness of this pavement is shown on the Log of Boring. Project No. 10-1467 Page 2 ENGINEERS Geology Generally, the road is located in the following geological formation: Kfd: Fort Worth Limestone and Duck Creek Formation undivided. The Fort Worth Limestone consists mostly of limestone and clay. The limestone is light to medium gray; weathers yellowish brown; with marine megafossils. The formation beds are about 0.2 to 2 feet thick becoming thicker and more massive southward. The clay is calcareous, about 0.1 to 5 feet thick. The clay is brown to light brown. Subsurface Soil Conditions Descriptions of the various strata and their approximate depths and thicknesses are shown on the Log of Boring. A brief summary of the stratigraphy encountered at the borings is given below. Given the location of the road to be widened and repaved, and the Fort Worth and Duck Creek undivided geological formation in the general area of the project, conditions at different boring locations are variable. In general, and below the asphaltic concrete and base material, the borings encountered clay and silty clay, followed by interbeded layers of limestone, and trace sand partings at approximately half of the borings. At the remainder of the borings (Borings B-2, B-5 and B-6), clay and silty clay followed by limestone was encountered to the boring termination depth. The borings were typically advanced to a depth of about 10 feet below existing grades. The Plasticity Index (PI) of the samples tested ranged from 17 to 51, indicating medium to very high soil plasticity. A high Plasticity Index is generally associated with a high potential for swelling with changes in moisture. Due the high variability of the subsurface soils encountered; refer to the attached Log of Boring for a more detailed description of the subsurface soils at specific locations. The Log of Boring is attached in Appendix A of this report. Project No. 10-1467 Page 3 GINEERS ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Pavement Design Recommendations STL understands that Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement is being considered for the road widening. As described earlier, our pavement design was performed using the AASHTO Guide for the Design of Pavement Structures in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Standard Manual. As a first step in the design process, the swell potential of the subgrade soils was evaluated. Swell ratios were calculated, based upon the free swell test results, and the thicknesses of the potentially active clay soil strata. The calculated swell ratios are tabulated on Plate A.10. One test taken in the road alignment resulted in swell ratio greater than 1.0. Therefore, lime treatment of the subgrade soils will be required in accordance with the requirements of the manual. Unconsolidated-undrained triaxial tests were performed on selected clay samples recovered, and shear strength values from the tests were correlated with CBR and resilient modulus values as presented on Plate B.1 of the manual. The CBR values were estimated to be approximately 0.62 times the undrained shear strength (in psi) of the soils tested. Based on that relationship, and using the average measured soil strength for the group of borings, an estimated CBR value of about 6 was estimated for the natural subgrade. A composite CBR value was estimated using a laboratory determined CBR value of 20 for the lime treated subgrade (adjusted CBR of 14), and a thickness of 6 inch for the treated layer. The CBR with the corresponding Resilient Modulus values are presented in the table below. Project No. 10-1467 Page 4 Avondale - Haslet Road Yes 6 6718 13 11257 Based on information provided by Dunaway Associates, L.P., the City of Fort Worth has classified Avondale -Haslet Road as an Arterial Street. STL has performed traffic analysis for Avondale -Haslet Road using annual Equivalent 18 kip Single Axle Load (ESALS) of 300,000 in one direction. A thirty (30) year design life and a growth rate of 2.5 percent were used in our analysis as required in the manual. In addition, and based on your request, STL performed our analyses using Loss of Support Factors (LS) of 0.0 and 1.0, for pavement section comparisons. A portion of the soils at the site are highly plastic and potentially expansive. For active swelling soils AASHTO recommends the use of a LS value in the range of 1.0 to 3.0. It is our opinion that a LS Factor of 1.0 should be considered by the designer. Our design assumptions and the results of our analyses for both LS factors are tabulated in the following sections. Pavement Design Recommendations A rigid pavement design for Avondale -Haslet Road was performed using 1993 AASHTO design equations and the DARWin Pavement Design and Analysis System. The results are presented in Appendix C of this report. Protect No. 10.1467 Page 5 EN(G NEERS For the PCC pavement design, the following design inputs were used: Pavement Type — Jointed Reinforced Concrete Pavement 18-kip ESALs over Initial Performance Period (30 years) —13,170,810 (2.5 % Growth) Initial Serviceability — 4.5 Terminal Serviceability — 2.5 28-day Mean PCC Modulus of Rupture — 620 psi 28-day mean elastic modulus of Slab — 4,000,000 psi Reliability Level — 85% Loss of Support 0.0 and 1.0 Overall Standard Deviation — 0.39 Load Transfer Coefficient, J — 3.0 Overall Drainage Coefficient, Cd —1.0 (see note below) Mean Effective k-value — estimated by the program based upon the input Resilient Modulus Note: For PCC pavements constructed directly on clay subgrade or stabilized clay subgrade, the quality of drainage was assumed to be "very poor", resulting in the overall drainage coefficient of about 1.0 shown above. Our recommended pavement sections using LS values of 0.0 and 1.0 are presented in the following table: Avondale -Haslet Road Avondale -Haslet Road 6" Lime Stabilized 8% lime (36 Ib./s.y.) 6" Lime Stabilized 8% lime (36 lb./s.y.) 0.0 1.0 9.55 10.28 For PCC pavement, concrete with a minimum 28 day compressive strength of 3,500 pounds per square inch should be used. The coarse aggregate in the concrete should consist of crushed limestone rather than rounded gravel. STL recommends lime stabilization of the subgrade on the indicated street using a minimum of 8 percent lime, as shown, (by dry soil weight) to a depth of 6 inches (36 pounds per square yard). Lime stabilization should be performed in accordance with Item STS 024 of the City of Fort Worth Pavement Specification. Project No. 10-1467 Page 6 The lime series test results are presented on Plate A.10 in Appendix A of the report. Pavement Subgrade Preparation All topsoil, vegetation, and any unsuitable materials should be removed. The pavement subgrade should be proof rolled with a fully loaded tandem axle dump truck or similar pneumatic -tire equipment to locate areas of loose subgrade. In areas to be cut, the proofroll should be performed after the final grade is established. In areas to be filled, the proofroll should be performed prior to placement of engineered fill. Areas of loose or soft subgrade encountered in the proofroll should be removed and replaced with engineered fill, or moisture conditioned (dried or wetted, as needed) and compacted in place. Depending on the final grade of pavement, limestone may be encountered near pavement subgrade elevation at some locations. Where bedrock is present at cut subgrade, the limestone should be undercut to a minimum depth of 8 inches and replaced with lime stabilized soil or crushed limestone flexible base, which conforms to Type A, Grade 1, Item No. 247, of State Department of Highways and Public Transportation (SDHPT), 2004 Standard Specifications for Construction of Hiahways. Streets. and bridges. The base should be compacted to 98 percent of the maximum dry density determined using SDHPT Test Method Tex-113-E. In addition allowance should be made at the interface between the rock and the subgrade soils to control differential settlement and pavement cracking between the two different materials. Grading and compaction of pavement subgrade should follow the recommendations in section "Recommendations for the Placement of Controlled Earth Fill", below. The final grades must be such that drainage is facilitated, and access of surface water to the subgrade materials is prevented. Jointed Reinforced Concrete Construction Recommendations The pavement should be adequately reinforced, with expansion, contraction, dummy saw and construction joints as required in Section 4 of the City of Fort Worth Manual. The spacing of the joints will depend primarily on the type of steel reinforcement used. However, STL recommends No. 3 steel rebar spaced at 12 inches center -to -center in both the longitudinal and transverse directions. It is our experience that dummy saw joints of 12-to 15-foot spacing and saw cut to a depth of at least one -quarter of the pavement thickness, in both the longitudinal and transverse directions have generally exhibited Project No. 10-1467 Page 7 less uncontrolled post -construction cracking than pavements with wider spacing. Frequent use of expansion and contraction joints will improve pavement performance. For PCC pavement, concrete with a minimum 28 day compressive strength of 3,500 pounds per square inch should be used. The coarse aggregate in the concrete should consist of crushed limestone rather than rounded gravel. Soluble Sulfates in Pavement Subgrade From our experience, relatively high concentrations of soluble sulfates can be encountered randomly throughout the Dallas -Fort Worth Metroplex. Soluble sulfates can react with lime or cement, water, and clay minerals to create a new mineral called ettringite. Ettringite expands in volume upon formation, which can create heaving in the chemically -treated portion of the pavement subgrade. This sulfate - induced heave of the chemically -treated subgrade can manifest itself as slightly elevated and elongated mounds (commonly called "gopher trails") or blocks of clay subgrade thrust up and over adjacent subgrade. If present, soluble sulfates can occur in relatively small and randomly spaced locations. Analytical testing was performed to aid in risk assessment of sulfate -induced heave occurring. Analytical test results showing soluble sulfate concentrations greater than about 2,000 to 3,000 ppm are indicative of elevated risk of heave occurring. The sulfate tests performed from samples recovered from this site ranged from Tess than 100 ppm to 515 ppm levels of soluble sulfates. Since the sulfate test results indicated soluble sulfate concentrations less than 1,000 ppm, the risk of sulfate -induced heave at the site is considered low. A copy of the analytical test results is included in Appendix C of this report. General As previously discussed, limestone seams and layers were encountered near the existing pavement grade at some boring locations, and we expect limestone to be encountered at pavement level grade at some locations during site grading, utility installation and other general excavations. The limestone can be hard to difficult to excavate and the contractor selected should have experience with excavation in hard limestone. All excavations should be shored, sloped and shielded in accordance with OSHA requirements. Project No. 10-1467 Page 8 ENGINEERS Groundwater seepage can occur at the ground surface where limestone is at or near the surface. Subsurface drains should be provided in areas where seasonal seepage may be objectionable. The drains should consist of 6 inch diameter slotted drain pipe embedded in a free -draining gravel medium. The gravel should be surrounded by a geo-textile filter fabric to prevent the intrusion of fines, and the drains should be sloped down to drain to storm sewers or nearby drainage features. Subsurface drainage system should comply with specifications outlined in Section STS-021 of the Fort Worth Pavement Design Manual. Every attempt should be made to limit the extreme wetting or drying of the subsurface soils because some swelling and shrinkage of these soils will result. Standard construction practices of providing good surface water drainage should be used. A positive slope of the ground away from the pavement edges should be provided. Also, ditches or swales should be provided to carry the run-off water both during and after construction. Water can infiltrate beneath the pavement through granular materials used for aggregate bases and • utility line embedment, and can cause differential movement in the pavement. All utilities should have clay plugs at the edges of the pavement to reduce the risk of moisture access. Root systems from trees and shrubs can draw a substantial amount of water from the clay soils at this site, causing the clays to dry and shrink. This could cause settlement beneath grade -supported paving. Newly planted trees and large bushes should be located a distance equal to at least one-half their anticipated mature height away from the pavement edges. Project No. 10.1467 Page 9 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PLACEMENT OF CONTROLLED EARTH FILL Fill and Backfill Materials General site fill in the construction area should consist of on -site material approved by the Soils Engineer. Imported fill should comply with specifications requirements descried in Appendix C of the Fort Worth Pavement Design Standard Manual, and should be approved by the Soils Engineer. The fill material should be placed in level, uniform layers, which, when compacted, should have moisture content and density conforming to the stipulations called for herein. Each layer should be thoroughly mixed during spreading to provide uniformity of the layer. The fill thickness should not exceed 8-inch loose lifts. All areas to be filled should be disked or bladed until uniform and free from large clods, brought to moisture content between optimum and 4 percentage points above the optimum moisture value, and compacted to between 95 and 100 percent of optimum density as determined by Tex-114-E. Density Tests Field Density tests should be made by the Soils Engineer or his representative. Density tests should be taken in each layer of the compacted material below the disturbed surface. If the materials fail to meet the density specified, the course should be reworked as necessary to obtain the specified compaction. CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS In any geotechnical investigation, the design recommendations are based on a limited amount of information about the subsurface conditions. In the analysis, the geotechnical engineer must assume the subsurface conditions are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings. However, during construction quite often anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed. Therefore, it is recommended that a qualified firm be retained to observe earthwork and pavement construction and perform materials evaluation and testing during the construction phase of the project. This enables the Project No. 10-1467 Page 10 geotechnical engineer to stay abreast of the project and to be readily available to evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to recommend alternative solutions to unanticipated conditions. REPORT CLOSURE The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on site conditions as they existed at the time of the field investigation and further on the assumption that the exploratory borings are representative of the subsurface conditions throughout the sites; that is, the subsurface conditions everywhere are not significantly different from those disclosed by the borings at the time they were completed. If during construction, different subsurface conditions from those encountered in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we must be advised promptly so that we can review these conditions and reconsider our recommendations where necessary. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if structure locations, structural Toads or finish grades are changed, we urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review our report to determine the applicability of the conclusions and recommendations, considering the changed conditions and/or time lapse. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Dunaway Associates, L.P. and their designated agents for specific application to design of this project. We have used that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised under similar conditions by reputable members of our profession practicing in the same or similar locality.

The borings were advanced between sample intervals using continuous flight auger drilling procedures. The results of each boring are shown graphically on the Log of Boring, Plates A.2 through A.7. Sample depths, descriptions, and soil classifications based on the Unified Soil Classification System are shown on the Log of Boring. Key to the symbols and terms used on the Log of Boring are presented on Plates A.8 and A.9. Groundwater observations during and after completion of the borings are shown on the Log of Boring. Upon completion of the borings, the boreholes were backfilled in general accordance with the City of Fort Worth requirements. Relatively undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with Shelby tube samplers in general accordance with ASTM D-1587 at the locations shown on the Log of Boring. The Shelby tube sampler consists of a thin -walled steel tube with a sharp cutting edge connected to a head equipped with a ball valve threaded for rod connection. The tube is pushed into the undisturbed soils by the hydraulic pulldown of the drilling rig. The soil specimens were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, tested for consistency with a hand penetrometer, sealed, and packaged to maintain "in situ" moisture content. The consistency of cohesive soil samples was evaluated in the field using a calibrated hand penetrometer. In this test a 0.25-inch diameter piston is pushed into the undisturbed sample at a constant rate to a depth of 0.25-inch. The results of these tests are tabulated at respective sample depths on the logs. When the capacity of the penetrometer is exceeded, the value is tabulated as 4.5+. Some samples were obtained using split -barrel sampling procedures in general accordance with ASTM D-1586. In the split -barrel procedure, a disturbed sample is obtained in a standard 2 inch OD split barrel sampling spoon driven into 18 inches into the ground using a 170-pound hammer falling freely 30 inches. The number of blows for the last 12 inches of a standard 18-inch penetration is recorded as the Standard Penetration Test resistance (N-value). The N-values are recorded on the boring logs at the depth of sampling. The samples were sealed and returned to our laboratory for further examination and testing. B-1 ENGINE', TRS The limestone encountered was evaluated using the Texas Cone Penetration test at selected locations. Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Test Method Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3- inch diameter cone with a 170-pound hammer freely falling 24 inches. This results in 340 foot-pounds of energy for each blow. In relatively soft materials, the penetrometer cone is driven 1 foot and the number of blows required for each 6-inch penetration is tabulated at respected test depths, as blows per 6 inches on the log. In hard materials (rock and rock -like), the penetrometer cone is driven with the resulting penetrations, in inches, recorded for the first and second 50 blows, a total of 100 blows. The penetration for the total 100 blows is recorded at the respective testing depths on the Log of Boring. B-2 LABORATORY TESTING General Laboratory tests were performed to define pertinent engineering characteristics of the soils encountered. The laboratory tests included moisture content, percent passing a #200 sieve; Atterberg limits determination, unconsolidated-undrained (UU) triaxial compression tests, lime series, soluble sulfate content, and visual classification. Classification Tests Classifications of soils were verified by natural moisture content; Atterberg limits determinations, and percent passing a #200 sieve. These tests were performed in general accordance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Procedures. The Atterberg limits, percent passing #200 sieve, and natural moisture content determinations are presented at the respective sample depths on the Log of Boring. Unconsolidated-Undrained (UU) Triaxial Tests - Soil UU tests were performed on selected samples of cohesive soils. In the UU test, a cylindrical specimen is subjected to axial load and confining fluid pressure at a constant rate of strain until failure occurs. The applied confining pressure was equivalent to approximately the existing overburden pressure on the samples. Test procedures were in general accordance with ASTM D 2850. Strengths determined by this test are tabulated at their respective sample depths on the logs of borings. Results of natural moisture content and dry unit weight determinations are also tabulated at the respective sample depths on the Log of Boring. Free Swell Tests Selected samples of the near -surface cohesive soils were subjected to free swell tests. In the free swell test, a sample is placed in a consolidometer and subjected to the estimated overburden pressure. The sample is then inundated with water and allowed to swell. Moisture contents are determined both before and after completion of the test. Test results are recorded as the percent swell, with initial and final moisture content. The results are shown on Plate A.10. B-3 1 ,.,„ , _41 ENGINEERS Lime Series Tests A lime series on selected samples of the near -surface cohesive soils were performed. The lime was added to the soil samples at 3%, 6% and 9% by dry weight. Test results of the lime series on selected samples are shown on Plate A.11.

Contractor will be billed, as further provided below, for the economic losses arising from loss of use of equipment, contractual loss of incentive pay and bonuses and contractual penalties resulting from train delays, whether caused by Contractor, or subcontractors, or by the Railway performing work under this Agreement. Railway agrees that it will not perform any act to unnecessarily cause train delay. For loss of use of equipment, Contractor will be billed the current freight train hour rate per train as determined from Railway's records. Any disruption to train traffic may cause delays to multiple trains at the same time for the same period. Additionally, the parties acknowledge that passenger, U.S. mail trains and certain other grain, intermodal, coal and freight trains operate under incentive/penalty contracts between Railway and its customer(s). Under these arrangements, if Railway does not meet its contract service commitments, Railway may suffer loss of performance or incentive pay and/or be subject to penalty payments. Contractor is responsible for any train performance and incentive penalties or other contractual economic losses actually incurred by Railway which are attributable to a train delay caused by Contractor or its subcontractors. The contractual relationship between Railway and its customers is proprietary and confidential. In the event of a train delay covered by this Agreement, Railway will share information relevant to any train delay to the extent consistent with Railway confidentiality obligations. Damages for train delay are currently $382.20 per hour per incident. THE RATE THEN IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF PERFORMANCE BY THE CONTRACTOR HEREUNDER WILL BE USED TO CALCULATE THE ACTUAL COSTS OF TRAIN DELAY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. Contractor and its subcontractors must give Railway's Roadmaster Marlon Gaunt at Office: 817-740-7274 or Cell: 817-205-2588 and email: marlon.gaunt(&,bnsf.com representative four (4) weeks advance notice of the times and dates for proposed work windows.
