The procesJ involves th~ use of a static, hydraulic or pneumatic hammer "moling" device\ suitably sized to break out the old pipe or using modified boring "knife" with ~ flared plug that implodes and crushes. the existing sewer pipe. . Forward progress of the "mole" or the "knife" may be aided by the use of hydraulic equipment or other apparatus, as specified in the approved methods.. The replacement pipe i~ either pulled or pushed into the bore . The method allows for replacement of pipe sizes from 8" through 21" and/or upsizing in varying increments up to 21". Thi4 specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing system used has been pre-approved by the Fort Worth Water Department. I Quality Assurance: I The Contractor shall be certified by the particular Pipe Bursting/Crushing system manufacturer that such firm is a licensed installer of their system. No other Pip~ Bursting/Crushing system other than those listed in Section A.2. of these specifications is acceptable. · · ! l a.

Background -The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) receives grants from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide low-interest loans to eligible political subdivisions , As a direct result of the United States Supreme Court's decision in Adarand Constructors, Inc. v. Pena 115 S. Ct. 2097 (1995), the EPA established new policies governing Small, Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (SMWBE). These new policies are included in the Grants and Operating Agreements between the EPA and TWDB , and apply to all recipients of financial assistance . B. EPA Policy -EPA's policy (policy) requires recipients of its financial assistance to establish Fair Share Goals (goals) for awarding contracts and procuring goods and services from SMWBE's in the construction , supplies , equipment, and services procurement categories . The policy is meant to ensure that SMWB-Fs have the opportunity to participate in the procurement process , for all phases of the project. It is important to note that although the policy includes small (SBE) and rural area (SBRA) business enterprises, EPA is only statutorily required to collect data and enforce fair share goal objectives for Minority and Women-Owned business enterprises. TWDB will continue to collect information on SBE and SBRA participation, but those contract awards will not count towards the MBE and WBE goals. I C. Applicability -EPA's policy applies to all procurements made after May 8 , 1998, for the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) Drinking Water State Revolving Fund program (DWSRF), Tier Ill Clean Water State Revolving Fund program (CWSRF) and Colonia Wastewater Treatment Assistance Program (CWT AP). · TWDB programs not affected by this policy are: Water Quality Enhancement (WOE), Water Supply Account (WSA), State Participation, Agricultural Loans and Grants , Tier II Clean Water State Revolving Fund program (CWSRF) and Economically Distressed Areas Program (EDAP). D. Guidance Document -The intent of the SMWBE guidance document is to assist applicants and contractors comply with EPA's policy regarding SMWBE 's. It is based, in part, on publications, training manuals and other guidance documents developed by EPA to implement their policies published in 40 CFR Parts 30 , .31, and 35-The guide also ensures consistency w ith the Supreme Court's decision in Adarand Constructors, Inc. v. Pena 115 S. Ct. 2097 (1995). E. Benefits -The Affirmative Steps Outreach Program is designed to benefit both recipients of EPA funds and the business community. Applicants can receive lower interest rates on loans in comparison to those available on the open-market, as well as having access to a greater pool of potential contractors to bid on their projects. This increased competition could have the affect of lowering overall project costs , thus , lessening the repayment burden on the Applicant. F. TWDB Role -The TWDB strives to provide all the necessary technical ass istance needed to both applicants and prime contractors throughout all phases of the project. This can include reviewing draft newspaper advertisements , Request for Qualifications (RFQ), and Information for Bids (IFB) to ensure SMWBE components are included; and scheduling pre-application, project management, pre-bid and pre-construction conferences upon request.

Fair Share Policy -It is EPA's policy that recipients of EPA financial assistance through grants , cooperative agreements and loans put forth a good faith effort to identify, solicit and if possible , award a fair share of con t racts/procurements to small , minority and women-owned businesses. This policy applies to all contracts/procurements for construction, supplies, equipment and services . In accordance with these guidelines , the TWDB has established and presently admin isters the SMWBE program , to promote SMWBE participation for all applicable program projects. B. Fair Share Goals -The goals shown below were developed using data from the 1997 United States Economic Census , which determined the availability of small, minority and women- owned businesses throughout the State. The goals a re applied to individual project contracts and procurements , which then determines the maximum potential procurement opportunities (in dollars) that are available to be awarded to MBE 's and WBE 's in eadi -ofthe applicable procurement categories . It is important to note that the goals are not achievement standards or quotas, nor is achieving the goals mandatory. However, applicants and prime contractors (including minority and women-owned businesses) are required to adequately demonstrate that a good faith effort was made to achieve the goals using EPA's six affirmative steps . The fair share goals are negotiated by ind ividual states , and are then presented to EPA fo r approval. The current EPA-approved fair share goals for the State of Texas are as follows: Supplies 18% 29% ; ----------------------------' ! Equipment 13% 13% I l -----------..,.._------------·-----···------·-----·····-···-··-···-····--·-·-·-··-··--.. --··i f: ! Services 22% 26% Texas W ater Deve lopment Board SMWBE Guidance Doc ument (SR F-052v.5) re v . 07/2 1/06 IV. GOOD FAITH EFFORT A. General -To ensure compliance with the EPA's Good Faith Effort Policy and Affirmative Steps Outreach Program, the TWDB recommends that all applicants review their own procurement policies and procedures to see if/how SMWBE's are addressed . For applicants that may have outdated or unwritten procurement procedures, the six affirmative steps outlined below, provide an excellent starting point for updating and/or developing written procurement procedures to address SMWBE 's . B . Six Affirmative Steps (1) Include qualified SMWBE 's on solicitation lists ; (2) Solicit potential SMWBE's , whenever they are potential sources; (3) Reduce contract size/quantities , when economically feasible , to permit maximum participation of SBE 's SMWBE 's ; (4) Establish delivery schedules to encourage participation by SMWBE 's ; (5) Use the services and assistance of the SBA, the Minority Business Development Agency, the U.S. Department of Commerce, as appropriate ; (6) Require Prime Contractor's to follow steps 1-5 when awarding subcontracts or sub-agreements . I C. Professional Service/Other Contracts -As part of the application phase , applicants typically enter into prime contracts for professional services such as Financial Advisor, Bond Counsel , and Consultant Engineer. In addition to following the Six Affirmative Steps , the Applicant must also procure professional services in accordance with Title 10, Chapter 2254 of the Texas Government Code (Professional Services Procurement Act) and Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 31 (Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Cooperative Agreements to State and Local Governments). D . Contractor Selection -Recipients are responsible for establishing their own criteria for awarding contracts and for review ing RFQ 's , IFB 's , and other bid documents to determine their validity and acceptability . Although the TWDB does not oversee this aspect of the process, it does recommend that adequate documentation be maintained to show the openness of the selection process and the method used to select the proposal/bid to ensure compliance with EPA's policy. E . Documentation • Financial Application Phase -As part of the financial application package, applicants must submit documentation certifying an understanding of EPA's good faith effort policy , including the fair share goals and six affirmative steps. This information is documented on TWDB form WRD-215, APPLICANT AFFIRMATIVE STEPS CERTIFICATION and GOALS. Note: It is not uncommon for applicants to procure the services of Financial Advisor, Bond Counsel, and Consultant Engineer during the financial application phase . However, they must have been procured in accordance with EPA's good faith effort policy to be funded with federal loan proceeds. • Subsequent Project Phases -Once the TWDB approves the loan commitment , applicants may proceed with the planning, design , and construction phases of the project, as directed by the TWDB rev iew/project engineer. For each new procurement or contract award, the applicant (in the procurements of prime contractors) and the prime contractors (in the procurement of subcontractors) must demonstrate their understanding and adherence to EPA 's good faith effort policy for all project costs to be funded with federal loan proceeds. · Texas Water Development Board SMWBE Guidance Document (SRF-052v .5) rev . 07/21/06 Texas Water Development Board Small, Minority, Women-Owned Business Enterprise Program Tips for Achieving a Good Faith Effort in Procurement To assist entities identify, include, and utilize qualified Small, Minority, and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (SMWBE), applicants and prime contractors are encouraged to refer to the following list of resources made available on a local, statewide , and national level. !

AFFIRMATIVE STEPS OUTREACH PROGRAM I Affirmative Step One : Include qualified SMWBE's on solicitation lists See ''Tips for Achieving a Good Faith Effort in Procurement" on previous page. Affirmative Step Two: Solicit potential SMWBE's , whenever they are potential sources • DIRECT COMMUNICATION -Use of direct communication as a means to solicit potential contractors can include contact by certified letter, facs imile , e-mail and by telephone . Direct communication implies that a contractor solicitation list has been established ; this list must be provided as backup documentation to the WRD-216 form when submitted . • INDIRECT COMMUNICATION -Use of indirect communication as a means to solicit potential contractors can include advertising in one or more local , regional or statewide newspapers , trade association publications , minority media outlets, Internet or other .website listings , and/or by notifying women and minority business organizations and chambers of commerce of these procurement opportunities. Newspaper advertisements must run in accordance with applicable purchasing guidelines and must include a statement encouraging the participation of minorities, women and small businesses subm itting an RFQ and/or bid . Affirmative Step Three : Reduce contract size/quantities , when economically feasible, to permit maximum participation of SBE 's SMWBE's Reducing contract size increases the opportunity fo r SMWBE participation by dividing the work into smaller increments that may be more favorable to smaller businesses. An optimum time to consider reducing contract size is during the project design phase . Methods for reducing contract size could include, but are not limited to: reviewing the project for opportunities to stage work ; dividing multiple-site work; dividing work by task; limiting "brand name requirements"; and soliciting multiple bid items. Affirmative Step Four: Establish Delivery Schedules to Encourage Participation Delivery schedules can sometimes determine whether a firm will be able to participate in the procurement process. Short delivery schedules often favor larger firms that have more staff and more available resources to complete big projects in a short period of time . Advanced planning and adequate project management can allow for reasonable delivery schedules, lengthening response time to receive bids and/or proposals, and can even increase competition , which can lead to reduced cost to the applicant. E. Affirmative Step Five : Use the services and assistance of the SBA, the Minority Business Development Agency, and the U.S . Department of Commerce, as appropriate F. The SBA and the Department of Commerce (DOC) Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) both manage outreach programs to assist SMWBE's business increase their procurement opportunities . The SBA assists small businesses in the development of business plans, financing, and education; applicants are encouraged to educate contractors on the services available to them through these government organizations. See Affirmative Step One for web links to those agencies . Affirmative Step Six: Require all Prime contractors to follow steps 1-5 when awarding subcontracts/sub-agreements Prime Contractors are required to follow steps 1-5 when awarding subcontracts/sub- agreements . They are also required to include the applicable "fair share objectives" in all project bid documents when soliciting for subcontracting opportunities . Including this information in the bid document/RFP ensures the potential bidder's awareness of the requirement and notification to comply. Any contract or subcontract awarded without regard to the "fair share objectives " can be considered ineligib le for loan funding by the TWDB.
