If the bidder chooses to submit the unit prices, total bid price, and total bid on a
computer-generated spreadsheet, all numbers shall be easily legible.
f. Any changes or alterations made in the Bid Form, or any addition thereto, may cause the
rejection of the bid. No bid will be considered which contains a clause in which the

Council of Waterloo. Bids in which the unit prices are obviously unbalanced may be
rejected.
g. If the bidder does not qualify as a resident bidder, the nonresident bidder shall specify on
the project proposal whether any preference to resident bidders, including but not limited

may therefore be accepted. Bids may be withdrawn by written or telegraphic request received
from bidders prior to the time set for closing of bids.
6. PUBLIC OPENING OF BIDS

a. CITY OF WATERLOO AND/OR WOMEN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE PRE-BID
CONTACT INFORMATION FORM
The City of Waterloo Minority and/or Women Business Enterprise Pre-Bid Contact
Information Form shall be submitted with the Form of Bid or Proposal. Failure to do so
shall be grounds for the bid being rejected if subcontracting is proposed by the prime
contractor.
10. MBE/WBE CONTRACT COMPLIANCE PROGRAM
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Contract Compliance Program (hereinafter called Program) is to act
as an impetus for increasing the participation of minority and women disadvantaged
business enterprise (MBE/WBE) in City awarded construction contracts.
The Program does not propose to eliminate any bonafide contractor or subcontractor
from bidding on City contracts, but it will hopefully serve as a needed stimulus to help
local MBE/WBE's grow and eventually become mainstream contractors and
subcontractors.
_ This Contract Compliance Program does not propose to include any set-aside or quotas,
but only flexible goals where "good-faith efforts" are required by the contractor to use
MBE/WBE subcontractors.
This Program shall not eliminate the need for contractors to continue their "good-faith
efforts" in using MBE/WBE subcontractors on City contracts estimated at less than
$50,000.
The City of Waterloo will make every effort to reduce in-house construction and

DEFINITIONS
Goals:
A flexible numerically expressed objective which contractors are required to make"good-
faith efforts." The key to the requirement is to make documented efforts. Goals are
neither set-a-sides nor a device to achieve proportional representation or equal results.
Numerical goals do not create set-a-sides for specific groups, nor are they designed to
achieve proportional representation or equal results. Rather, the goal-setting process in
affirmative action planning is used to target and measure the effectiveness of affirmative
action efforts to eradicate and prevent discrimination.
Quota:
A flat numerical requirement that the contractor is required to meet in order to obtain the
benefit or be in compliance. The numerical goal component of affirmative action
programs is not designed to be, nor may it properly or lawfully be interpreted as,
permitting unlawful preferential treatment and quotas with respect to persons of any race,
color, religion, sex, or national origin. The regulations at 41 CFR 60-2.12(a), 60-2.15 and
60-2.30, specifically prohibit discrimination and the use of goals as quotas. (U.S.

b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United
States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority;
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security number used
on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
(i) Black (all persons having origin in any of the Black African racial groups not of

(ii) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South
American or other Spanish Culture or origin, regardless of race);
(iii) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original
peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian Sub-continent, or the Pacific
Islands); and
(iv) American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any of the
original peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations
through membership and participation or community identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier subcontracts a portion of the
work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in excess of
$10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains the applicable
goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the solicitations from which
this contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 6-4.5) in a Hometown Plan
approved by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered area either individually or through an
association, its affirmative action obligations on all work in the Plan area (including goals and
timetables) shall be in accordance with that Plan for those trades which have unions
participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation in and
compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown Plan. Each Contractor or Subcontractor
participating in an approved Plan is individually required to comply with its 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 efforts to achieve the Plan goals and timetables.
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in
paragraphs 7a through p of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from
which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of employment and
training of minority and female utilization the Contractor should reasonably be able to achieve in
each construction trade in which it has employee in the covered area. Covered construction
contractors performing construction work in geographical areas where they do not have a
SRF-13 May 2015
Federal or federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals

periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and such notices may be obtained from any
Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs office or from Federal procurement contracting
officers. The Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress in meeting its goals
in each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union
with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities or
women shall excuse the Contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive Order
11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the 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 employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs approved by
the U.S. Department of Labor.
7. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment
opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these specifications shall be
basedcueunt n its effort to efforts fully, ve and shall implement affirmativeum results from its tions. The act on steps atleastras extensivell
document these Y
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 employees 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
minority 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 have employment opportunities
available and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each
minority and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union,
a recruitment source or community organization and of what action was taken with
respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for
referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not
employed by the Contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason
therefore, along with whatever additional actions the Contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification 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 effort,
to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for
the area which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs
and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to the Contractor's employment
needs, especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The
SRF-14 May 2015
Contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the source complied under 7b
above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions
and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the Contractor in
meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective
bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report, etc.;
by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority and
female employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on
bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where construction work is
performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations
under these specifications with all employees having any responsibility for hiring,
assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific review
of these items with onsite supervisory personnel such as Superintendents, General
Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A written record
shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons
attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising in
the news media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing
written notification to and discussing the Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors
and Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and community
organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority and female
recruitment and training organizations serving the Contractor's recruitment area and
employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of
applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the
Contractor shall send written notification to organizations such as the above, describing
the openings, screening procedures, and test to be used in the selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons
and women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation
employment to minority and female youth both on the site and in other areas of a
Contractor's workforce.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do
so under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
1. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and
female personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek
or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications 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 nonsegregated except that
separate or single-user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to
assure privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from
minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of
solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and other business
associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance
under the Contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.
SRF-15 May 2015
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 meet its individual goals and timetables, and can provide access to
documentation 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 minority
and non-minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a
particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner(for example, even though the
Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is underutilized).
10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetable or affirmative action standards to
discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
11. The Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with any person or firm debarred
from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these
specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination and
cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive
Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal Contract
Compliance Programs. Any Contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall
be in violation of these specifications and Executive Order 11246, as amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement
specific affirmative action steps at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in
paragraph 7 of these specifications so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure
equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of the
Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications, the Director shall
proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related
activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports relating to
the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to keep records. Records
shall at least include for each employee the name, address, telephone numbers, construction
trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned, social security
number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice, trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of
changes in status, hours worked per 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 shall not be required to maintain separate records.
SRF-16 May 2015
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other
laws which establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements
for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment
Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant Program).

action obligations required by the specifications set forth in 41 CFR 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to
meet the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must be
substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the contractor
shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects.
The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from Contractor to Contractor or from
project to project for the sole purpose of meeting 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.
3. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction
subcontract in excess of$10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract
resulting from this solicitation. The notification shall list the name, address and telephone
number of the subcontractor, employer Identification number of the subcontractor,

B. Federal Labor Standards Provisions (including Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates)
Applicability
The Project or Program to which the construction work covered by this contract pertains is being
assisted by the United States of America and the following Federal Labor Standards Provisions
are included in this Contract pursuant to the provisions applicable to such Federal assistance.
(1) Minimum wages. (i) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the
work will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent
deduction or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as are permitted by
regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full
amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of
payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the
Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any
contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers
and mechanics. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits
under section 1(b)(2) of the Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered
wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of
this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period
(but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the particular
weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period.
Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the
wage determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill,
SRF-20 May 2015
except as provided in Sec. 5.5(a)(4). Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one
classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time
actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the
time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including
any additional classification and wage rates conformed under paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this section)
and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH-1321) shall be posted at all times by the contractor and its
subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily
seen by the workers.
(ii)(A) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including
helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the
contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination. The contracting officer
shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits therefore only when
the following criteria have been met:
(1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a
classification in the wage determination; and
(2) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and
(3) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(B) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if
known), or their representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage
rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the
action taken shall be sent by the contracting officer to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour
Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, DC
20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve,
every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advisedify the contracting
officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is
necessary.
(C) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification
or their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification
and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropria-e), the
contracting officer shall refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the
recommendation of the contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The
Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of
receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day
period that additional time is necessary.
(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(ii) (B) or (C) of this section, shall be paid to all workers performing work in the
classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the
classification.
(iii) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of labo-ers or
_ mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the con Tractor
shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bDna fide
fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
— (iv) If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor
may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs

fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the
applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.
(C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of
Optional Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the -Statement of
Compliance" required by paragraph (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section.
(D) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or
subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of
title 31 of the United States Code.
(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph (a)(3)(i)
of this section available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of
the EPA or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview
employees during working hours on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the
required records or to make them available, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the
contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the
suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to
submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for
debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.
(4) Apprentices and trainees--(i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less
than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to
and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S.
Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of
Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State Apprenticeship
recognized by the Office, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary ency
employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually
registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship Training,
Employer and Labor Services or a State ApprenticeshipA

a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated
above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice
work on the job
site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid o of less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a
contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its
program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's
SRF-23 May 2015
hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be
observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered
program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen
hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe
benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship
program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe
benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification.

(iii) The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the
U.S. Criminal Code, 18 U.S.C. 1001.
(b) Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. The Agency Head shall cause or require
the contracting officer to insert the following clauses set forth in paragraphs (b)(1), (2), (3), and
(4) of this section in full in any contract in an amount in excess of$100,000 and subject to the
overtime provisions of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. These clauses shall
be inserted in addition to the clauses required by Sec. 5.5(a) or 4.6 of part 4 of this title. As used
in this paragraph, the terms laborers and mechanics include watchmen and guards.
(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the
contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall
require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed
on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or
mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of
pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of
the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section the contractor and any subcontractor
responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and
subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for
the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated
damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or
mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in
paragraph (b)(1) of this section, in the sum of$10 for each calendar day on which such
individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours
without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of
this section.
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The loan recipient shall upon its
own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor
withhold or cause to be withheld, from any moneys payable on account of work performed by
the contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any other Federal contract with the
same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract subject to the Contract Work
Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as
may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor
for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in
the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses
set forth in paragraph (b)(1) through (4) of this section and also a clause requiring the

C. Preservation of Open Competition and Government Neutrality Towards
Government Contractors' Labor Relations on Federal and Federally Funded
Construction Projects (Executive Order 13202, as amended by Executive Order
13208)
Executive Order 13202, signed February 17, 2001 and amended April 4, 2001, requires all
executive agencies that issue grants to ensure Government neutrality toward contractors' labor
relations. This applies to recipients of SRF assistance. The Executive Order prohibits
discrimination against contractors and their employees in construction contracts based upon
labor affiliation or lack thereof.
SRF assistance recipients and any construction managers acting on their behalf must ensure
that bidding specifications, project agreements, and other controlling documents do not require,
prohibit, or otherwise discriminate, with respect to labor affiliation or lack thereof.
D. Historical and Archeological Finds
If, during the course of construction, evidence of deposits of historical or archeological interest is
found, the contractor shall cease operations affecting the find. The owner shall then notify the
State Revolving Fund Environmental Review Specialist, who shall in turn notify the State
Historic Preservation Office. The SRF shall consult with the SHPO and other interested parties
to determine the proper course of action regarding the discovery. No further disturbance of the
deposits shall ensue until the SRF Environmental Review Specialist determines that the project
activities in that area may proceed. Compensation to the contractor, if any, for lost time or
changes in construction to avoid the find, shall be determined in accordance with changed
conditions or change order provisions of the specifications.

Both the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act prohibit federal agencies from extending
assistance by way of loans or contracts to persons who have been convicted of violations of
either law. Executive Order 11738 was issued to coordinate enforcement by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, which shall designate facilities which have given rise to a
conviction for an offense under the criminal provisions of the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water
Act.
The Executive Order also prohibits agencies from extending assistance to facilities that are not
in compliance with either Act.
SRF assistance recipients may not procure goods, services, or materials from suppliers listed

SRF Required Front-End Specifications
"American Iron and Steel" Requirements
H.R. 3547, the "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2014," enacted January 17, 2014 by the U.S.
Congress, includes "American Iron and Steel" provisions that require Clean Water and Drinking
Water State Revolving Fund assistance recipients of these funds to use iron and steel produced
in the United States.
H.R. 3547 includes the following language in Division G, Title IV, under the heading, "Use of
American Iron and Steel":
Sec. 436. (a)(1) None of the funds made available by a State water pollution control
revolving fund as authorized by title VI of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C.
1381 et seq.) or made available by a drinking water treatment revolving loan fund as
authorized by section 1452 of the Safe Drinking Water Act (42 U.S.C. 300j-12) shall be
used for a project for the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of a public water
system or treatment works unless all of the iron and steel products used in the project are
produced in the United States.
(2) In this section, the term "iron and steel products" means the following products made
primarily of iron and steel: lined or unlined pipes and fittings, manhole covers and other
municipal castings, hydrants, tanks, flanges, pipe clamps and restraints, valves, structural
steel, reinforced precast concrete, and construction materials.
(b) Subsection (a) shall not apply in any case or category of cases in which the
Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (in this section referred to as the
"Administrator") find that—
(1) applying subsection (a) would be inconsistent with the public interest;
(2) iron and steel products are not produced in the United States in sufficient and
reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quantity; or
(3) inclusion of iron and steel products produced in the United States will increase the
cost of the overall project by more than 25 percent.
(c) If the Administrator receives a request for a waiver under this section, the Administrator
shall make available to the public on an informal basis a copy of the request and
information available to the Administrator concerning the request, and shall allow for
informal public input on the request for at least 15 days prior to making a finding based on
the request. The Administrator shall make the request and accompanying information
available by electronic means, including on the official public Internet Web site of the
Environmental Protection Agency.
The final guidance and any published waivers are found at:
http:/Iwater.epa.govigrants funding/aisrequirement.cfm. In particular the contractor should pay
attention to the guidance for documentation of compliance. There is also a waiver for incidental
items; in order to qualify for this waiver the total materials and costs for the project must be
tracked and incidental items identified.
SRF-28 May 2015
Sample "American Iron and Steel"Contract Language
In order to fulfill the requirements, the assistance recipient must in good faith design the project
and solicit bids for construction with U.S.-made iron and steel. The following information will be
included in any contracts resulting from this request for bids:
The Contractor acknowledges to and for the benefit of the City of
("Purchaser") and the State of Iowa (the "State")that it understands the goods and services under
this Agreement are being funded with monies made available by the Clean Water State
Revolving Fund and/or Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and such law contains provisions
commonly known as "American Iron and Steel;" that requires all of the iron and steel products
used in the project to be produced in the United States ("American Iron and Steel Requirement")
including iron and steel products provided by the Contactor pursuant to this Agreement.
The Contractor hereby represents and warrants to and for the benefit of the Purchaser and the
State that (a)the Contractor has reviewed and understands the American Iron and Steel
Requirement, (b) all of the iron and steel products used in the project will be and/or have been
produced in the United States in a manner that complies with the American Iron and Steel
Requirement, unless a waiver of the requirement is approved, and (c) the Contractor will provide
any further verified information, certification or assurance of compliance with this paragraph, or
information necessary to support a waiver of the American Iron and Steel Requirement, as may
be requested by the Purchaser or the State.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any failure to comply with this
paragraph by the Contractor shall permit the Purchaser or State to recover as damages against the
Contractor any loss, expense, or cost(including without limitation attorney's fees) incurred by
the Purchaser or State resulting from any such failure (including without limitation any
impairment or loss of funding, whether in whole or in part, from the State or any damages owed
.., to the State by the Purchaser). While the Contractor has no direct contractual privity with the
State, as a lender to the Purchaser for the funding of its project, the Purchaser and the Contractor
agree that the State is a third-party beneficiary and neither this paragraph (nor any other
provision of this Agreement necessary to give this paragraph force or effect) shall be amended or
waived without the prior written consent of the State.
Sample Certifications
As indicated in the contract language, it will be the responsibility of the Contractor to obtain
certifications that the products and materials used in the project are U.S.-made. EPA
recommends the use of a step certification process for documenting compliance with AIS
requirements, similar to one used by the Federal Highway Administration. Step certification
creates a paper trail which documents the location of the manufacturing process involved with
the production of steel and iron materials. Each handler (supplier, fabricator, manufacturer,
— processor, coater, etc.) of the iron and steel products certifies that their step in the process was
domestically performed.
The following information is provided as a sample letter of step certification for AIS compliance.
Documentation must be provided on company letterhead. In this example, there may be
multiple letters from different manufacturers if one manufacturer did not perform all of the steps.

Covered and Non-Covered Items
The EPA issued a waiver for de minimus incidental components of eligible water and
wastewater infrastructure projects. Funds used for such de minimus incidental components —
cumulatively may comprise no more than a total of 5% of the total cost of the materials used in
and incorporated into a project. The in and incorporated intolincidental
a prntal item may not exceed 1% of
the total cost of the materials used
De minimus incidental items include miscellaneous, generally low-cost components that are
essential for, but incidental to, the construction and are incorporated into the physical structure
of the project. For many of these incidental components, the country of manufacture and the
availability of alternatives are not readily or reasonably identifiable prior to procurement in the
normal course of business. For others, the country of manufacture may be known but the
miscellaneous character in conjunction with the low cost, individually and (in total) as typically —
procured in bulk, mark them as properly incidental.
Examples of incidental components could include small washers, screws, fasteners (i.e., nuts
and bolts), miscellaneous wire, corner bead, ancillary tube, etc. Examples of items that are
clearly not incidental include significant process fittings (i.e., tees, elbows, flanges, and
brackets), distribution system fittings and valves, force main valves, pipes, treatment and
storage tanks, large structural supports, etc.
Assistance recipients should in consultation with their contractors determine the items to be
covered by this waiver, must retain relevant documentation (i.e. invoices) as to those items, and
must summarize in rep thehs to tl e costate of Iowa the types and/or categories of items to which
of incidental components for each type or category, and the
this waiver is applied, total c
calculations by which they determined the total cost of materials used in and incorporated into
the project.

10. SUBCONTRACTORS. The Contractor shall, as soon as practicable after the signature
of the contract, notify the Engineer in writing of the names of the Subcontractors proposed for the work
and shall not employ any that the Engineer may, within a reasonable time, object to as incompetent or
unfit.
The Contractor agrees that he is as fully responsible to the City for the acts and omission of his
Subcontractors and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by them as he is for the acts and
omissions of persons directly employed by him.
Nothing contained in the contract documents shall create any contractual relation between any _
Subcontractor and the City.
11. ARBITRATION. All questions subject to arbitration under this Contract shall be
submitted to arbitration at the choice of either party to the dispute.
The Contractor shall not cause a delay of the work during any arbitration proceedings, except by
agreement with the Engineer.
The demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing with the Engineer, in the case of an appeal
from his decision, within ten (10) days of its receipt, and in any other case, within a reasonable time after
cause thereof, and in no case later than the time of final payment, except as otherwise expressly
stipulated in the contract. If the Engineer fails to make a decision within a reasonable time, an appeal to
arbitration may be taken as if his decision had been rendered against the part appealing.
No one shall be nominated or act as an arbitrator who is in any way financially interested in the
contract or in the business affairs of either the City or the Contractor.
The general procedure shall conform to the laws of the State of Iowa. Unless otherwise provided
by such laws, the parties may agree upon one arbitrator; otherwise, there shall be three--one named in
writing by each party to this contract to the other party, and the third chosen by these two arbitrators, or, if
they fail to select a third within ten (10) days, then he shall be chosen by the Comptroller of the State of
Iowa. Should either party refuse or neglect to supply the arbitrators with any papers or information
demanded in writing, the arbitrators are empowered by both parties to proceed ex parte.
If there be one arbitrator, his decision shall be binding; if three, the decision of any two shall be
binding. Such decision shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action, and, wherever '—
permitted by law, it may be filed in Court to carry it into effect.
The arbitrators, if they deem that the case demands it, are authorized to award to the party whose
contention is sustained such sums as they shall deem proper for the time, expense, and trouble incident
to the appeal, and, if the appeal was taken without reasonable cause, damages for delay, the arbitrators
shall fix their own compensation unless otherwise provided by agreement, and shall assess the costs and
charges of the arbitration upon either or both parties.
The award of the arbitrators must be in writing, and it shall not be open to objections on account
of the form of proceeding or the award, unless otherwise provided by the laws of Iowa.
In the event of such laws providing on any matter covered by this article otherwise than as
hereinbefore specified, the method of procedure throughout and the legal effect of the award shall be
wholly in accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa, it being intended hereby to lay down a principle of _
action to be followed, leaving its local application to be adopted to the legal requirements of the place in
which the work is to be done.
12. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BONDS. The Contractor shall, at the time of _.
execution and delivery of this contract and before the taking effect of same, furnish and deliver to the City

satisfactory and acceptable to the City, to insure the faithful performance and payment by the Contractor
of all the covenants and agreements on the part of the Contractor contained in this contract. These
bonds shall remain in force and effect for the full amount of the Contract.
13. PERSONAL LIABILITY OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS. In carrying out any of the provisions of
the Contract or in exercising any power or authority granted him thereby, there shall be no liability upon
the Engineer or his authorized assistants, either personally or as an official of the City, it being
understood that in such matters he acts as the agent and representative of the City.
14. JURISDICTION. Any action in Court against the Contractor or sureties on his bond
because of damages to property or individuals by said Contractor or his workmen, or because of the
violation of any provisions of the specifications, or on account of the failure of said Contractor to comply
fully with these provisions, shall be brought in the District Court of the State of Iowa in and for Black Hawk
County.
15. TERMINATION OF RESPONSIBILITY. The Contract shall be considered as completed
and the Contractor released from further obligations except as to the requirements of his bond, after the
work has been completed and finally accepted and final estimates have been allowed and the completion
report of the engineer has been filed and approved by the Council.
16. CITY'S LEGAL RIGHTS. The City shall not be precluded by any measurements,
estimate, or certificate made, either before or after the completion and acceptance of the work and
— payment therefor, from showing the true amount and character of the work performed and materials
furnished by the Contractor, or from showing that any such measurement, estimate, or certificate is untrue
or incorrectly made, or the work or materials do not, in fact, conform to the Contract.
The City shall not be precluded, notwithstanding any such measurements, estimate, or certificate
and payment in accordance therewith, from recovering from the Contractor and his surety such damages
as it may sustain by reason of his failure to comply with the terms of the Contract. Neither the acceptance
by the City or any of its representatives, nor any payment for or acceptance of the whole or any part of
the work, nor any extension of time, nor any possession taken by the City, shall operate as a waiver on
any portion of the contract or of any power herein reserved, or any right to damages herein provided. A
waiver of any breach of the contract shall not be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave
.•, for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the
Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any
solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this
contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide
"1
AA
employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours
they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.
Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their
own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including
preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is
like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other
health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons
resulting from, or to assist a familymember6.
(or person who is
like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic
violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information
on contractor requirements and worker protections under the SO
is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts. �..
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within
the scope of the classifications listed may be added after 6.
award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses
(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii) ) .
6.
The body of each wage determination lists the classification
and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the
cited type (s) of construction in the area covered by the wage
determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical 6.
order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular
rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local) ,
a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate
(weighted union average rate) .
Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed
in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or
"UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were
prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:
PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of
the union which prevailed in the survey for this
classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198
indicates the local union number or district council number `,.
where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number,
005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing
the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the
most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, L.
2014 .
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate
changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA)
governing
this classification and rate.
Survey Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that
no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and
the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average 6.
rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that
6.
L
s'S
classification. As this weighted average rate includes all
�-, rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and
non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates
the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average
calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates
the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which
these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007
in the example, is an internal number used in producing the
wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion
date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a
..7 new survey is conducted.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
"1 Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate
that no single majority rate prevailed for those
classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the
classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010
.1 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union
average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in
the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage
determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date
for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of
each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current
negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is
based.
WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1. ) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can
..., b e:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
-n * a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on
a wage determination matter

for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour
Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted
because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the
Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial
contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2. )
and 3. ) should be followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal
process described here, initial contact should be with the
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
