VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law provides that , in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required too underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the nonresident's principal place of business is located . The appropriate blanks i n Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications . The failure of out-of-state or nonresident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A . Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State law. A copy of the Statute is attached. Nonresident vendors in (give State), our principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders . B. Our principal place of business or corporate offices are in the State of Texas . )8j BIDDER : Cbm~"" C0:os\:ruv'fiPol)(,L.f Company Address !(Ql\°1 City/State/Zip 1 By:_\..-) e-"--'-'( (-'--~-'t--G""'-=-erro...---'-_,_+&-=--e ....... r::.___ __ _ (f>)ease print) Sign ~ Title : Y res·, d{? n-t-_____________ (Pleas e print) THIS FORM MUST BE RETURNED WITH YOUR QUOTATION I , A DDENDA INDEX AND RECEIPT , , Addenda Date Receipt N umber , I IJ-/o l/1D , ' IJ...j CA /JD , ' 3 ld-jJY//0 ./ ' ~ ' I :>-/ J'-1/ / D ~ I 2-; I 5/0 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ I I Part C General Conditions Cl-1 · Cl-1.1 Cl-1.2 Cl-1.3 Cl-1.4 Cl-1.5 Cl-1.6 Cl-1.7 Cl-1.8 Cl-1.9 Cl-1.10 Cl-1.11 Cl-1.12 Cl-1.13 Cl-1.14 Cl-1.15 Cl-1.16 Cl-1.17 Cl-1.18 Cl -1.19 Cl-1.20 Cl-1.21 Cl-1.22 Cl-1.23 Cl-1.24 Cl-1.25 Cl-1.26 Cl-1.27 Cl-1.28 Cl-1.29 Cl-1.30 Cl-1.31 Cl-1.32 PART C -GENERAL CONDITIONS TABLE OF CONTENTS OCTOBER 19, 2009 TABLE OF CONTENTS DEFINITIONS Cl-1 (1) Definition of Terms Cl-1 (1) Contract Documents Cl-1 (2) Notice to Bidders Cl-1 (2) Proposal Cl-1 (2) Bidder Cl-1 (2) General Conditions Cl-1 (2) Special Conditions Cl-1 (2) Specifications Cl-1 (2) Bonds Cl-1 (2) Contract Cl-1 (3) Plans Cl-1 (3) City Cl-1 (3) City Council Cl-1 (3) Mayor Cl-1 (3) City Manager Cl-1 (3) City Attorney Cl-1 (3) Director of Public Works Cl-1 (3) Director, City Water Department Cl-1 (3) Engineer Cl-1 (3) Contractor Cl -1 (3) Sureties Cl-1 (4) The Work or Project Cl-I (4) Working Day Cl-1 (4) Calendar Days Cl-1 (4) Legal Holidays Cl-1 (4) Abbreviations Cl-1 (4) Change Order Cl-1 (5) Paved Streets and Alleys Cl-1 (5) Unpaved Streets or Alleys Cl-1 (6) City Street Cl-1 (6) Roadway Cl-1 (6) Gravel Street Cl-1 (6) C2-2 INTERPRETATION AND PREPARATION OF PROPOSAL C2-2.1 C2-2.2 C2-2.3 C2-2.4 Proposal Form Interpretation of Quantities Examination of Contract Documents and Site of Project Submitting of Proposal (1) C2-2 (1) C2-2 (1) C2-2 (2) C2-2 (2) - C2-2.5 Rejection of Proposals C2-2 (3) C2-2.6 Bid Security C2-2 (3) C2-2 .7 Delivery of Proposal C2-2 (3) C2-2.8 Withdrawing Proposals C2-2 (3) C2-2.9 Telegraphic Modifications of Proposals C2-2 (3) C2-2.10 Public Opening of Proposal C2-2 (4) C2-2.11 Irregular Proposals C2-2 (4) C2-2.12 Di squalification of Bidders C2-2 (4) C3-3 AW ARD AND EXECUTION OF DOCUMENTS: C3-3.l Consideration of Proposals C3-3 (1) -- C3-3.2 Minority Bu siness Enterprise/Women Business C3-3 (1) Enterprise Compliance C3-3.3 Equal Employment Provisions C3-3 (1) C3-3.4 Withdrawal of Proposals C3-3 (1) C3-3.5 Award of Contract C3-3 (2) C3-3.6 Return of Proposal Securities C3-3 (2) ,-~ C3-3.7 Bonds C3-3 (2) C3-3.8 Execution of Contract C3-3 (3) C3-3 .9 Fa:ilure to Execute Contract C3-3 (3) - C-3-3.10 Beginning Work C3-3 (4) C3-3.11 Insurance C3-3 (4) C3-3.12 Contractor's Obligations C3-3 (6) C3-3.13 Weekly Payrolls C3-3 (6) C3-3.14 Contractor's Contract Administration C3-3 (6) C3-3.15 Venue C3-3 (7) C4-4 SCOPE OF WORK C4-4.1 Intent of Contract Documents C4-4 (1) C4-4.2 Special Provisions C4-4 (1) C4-4.3 Increased or Decreased Quantities C4-4 (1) C4-4.4 Alteration of Contract Documents C4-4 (2) C4-4.5 Extra Work C4-4 (2) C4-4.6 Construction Schedule C4-4 (3) C4-4.7 Schedule Tiers Special Instructions C4-4 (6) C5-5 CONTROL OF WORK AND MATERIALS C5-5.1 Authority of Engineer C5-5 (1) C5-5.2 Conformity with Plans C5-5 (1) CS-5.3 Coordination of Contract Documents C5-5 (1) C5-5.4 Cooperation of Contractor C5-5 (2) CS-5.5 Emergency and/or Rectification Work C5-5 (2) CS-5.6 Field Office C5-5 (3) C5-5.7 Construction Stakes C5 -5 (3) (2) - C5-5.8 C5-5.9 C5-5.10 C5-5.ll C5-5.12 C5-5.13 C5-5.14 C5-5.15 C5-5.16 C5-5.l 7 C5-5.18 C6-6 C6-6.l C6-6.2 C6-6.3 C6-6.4 C6-6 .5 C6-6.6 C6-6 .7 C6-6 .8 C6-6 .9 C6-6 .10 C6 .6 .11 C6-6 .12 C6-6 .13 C6-6 .14 C6-6 .15 C6-6 .16 C6-6 .17 C6 -6.18 C6-6 .19 C6-6.20 C6-6 .21 C7-7 C7 -7.1 C7-7 .2 C7-7.3 C7-7.4 C7-7 .5 C7-7.6 C7-7 .7 C7-7 .8 Authority and Duties of City Inspector Inspection Removal of Defective and Unauthorized Work Substitute Materials or Equipment Samples and Tests of Materials Storage of Materials Existing Structures and Utilities Interruption of Service Mutual Responsibility of Contractors Clean-Up Final Inspection LEGAL RELATIONS AND PUBLIC RESPONSIBILITY Laws to be Observed Permits and Licenses Patented Devices, Materials, and Processes · Sanitary Provisions Public Safety and Convenience Privileges f Contractor in Streets, Alleys, and Right-of-Way C5-5 (3) C5-5 (4) C5-5 (4) C5-5 (4) C5-5 (5) C5-5 (5) C5-5 (5) C5-5 (6) C5-5 (7) C5-5 (7) C5-5 (8) C6-6 (1) C6-6 (1) C6-6 (1) C6-6 (1) C6-6 (2) C6-6 (3) Railway Crossings C6-6 (3) Barricades, Warnings and Flagmen C6-6 (3) Use of Explosives, Drop Weight, Etc.

GENERAL: 10123/08 1. Description: This specification includes requirements to rehabilitate existing sanitary sewers by the pipe enlargement system , herein called Pipe Bursting or Pipe Crushing (Pipe Bursting/Crushing). This system includes splitting or bursting the existing pipe to install a new polyethylene pipe and reconnect existing sewer service connections. 2. Methods : This section specifies the approved system method or process to include all labor, materials , tools , equipment and incidentals necessary to provide for the complete rehabilitation of deteriorated gravity sewer lines by the Pipe Bursting/Crushing systems . Approved methods include : the PIM Corporation (PIM System), Piscata Way, New Jersey ; Mclat Construction (McConnell System for Pipe Crushing), Houston , Texas ; and Trenchless Replacement Systems , (TRS System), Calgary, Canada . Refer to Part D -SPECIAL CONDITIONS D-34 SIBSTITUTIONS for information regarding pre-approval procedures for alternative processes . 3 . Definition : The Pipe Bursting/Crushing system is defined as the reconstruction of gravity sewer pipe by installing an approved pipe material , by means of one of the pre-approved methods set forth in Section A.2 of this specification. The process involves the use of a static, hydraulic or pneumatic hammer "moling" device, suitably sized to break out the old pipe or using modified boring "knife" with a 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 is 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". This specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing system used has been pre-approved by the Fort Worth Water Department. 4 . Quality Assurance: 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 Pipe Bursting/Crushing system other than those listed in Section A.2. of these specifications is acceptable. a . b.

Ai l Traffic Control Devices shail have working visible warning !ights as re quired in accordance with the Cl!rrent ed it io n of TMUTCD. For Temporary Situations. when it is not feasible to remove and restore pa 11ement markings, channelization must be made do~inarii by using a very close device spacing . This is especially important in locations of conflicting in formation, such as where traffic is directed over a double ye llow centerlin e . In such locations, channe li zing device spacing ot 10 feet is requi red . For Long Term Stationary work, all conflicting pavement markings must be removed and centerline st.iping provided where two way traffic is in adiacent lanes. Contractor shall provide sidewa lk closure, crosswalk closure and/or walkway bypass wherever pedestrian mov ements are affected by construction activities. All sidewalks and crosswalks shall be accessible when contractor is not working unless other.vise approved by the C ity Tr;;fiic Eng in eer. The use cf trai ler mounted ARROW DISPLAYS may be required on all lane c!osures . The contractor shall prcvide one (1) stand-by unit in good working condition at the job site, ready for use , if l,is operation requires 24 -hour a day closure set-ups and if required. City Trnffic Engineer and/or Inspectors may require addrt ionaf traffic control devices.
