Excessively large packages shall be rejected and sent back to the CONTACTOR for reduction into two or more packages. 11.04 AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF INSPECTORS.

Any defective work, whether the result of poor workmanship, use of defective materials, damage through carelessness or any other cause, found to exist prior to acceptance of final payment for Work shall be removed immediately and replaced by Work and materials which shall conform to the specifications or shall be remedied otherwise in an acceptable manner. The fact that the inspector may have previously overlooked such defective work shall not constitute an acceptance of any part of it. 11.07 MAINTENANCE DURING CONSTRUCTION. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain the Work until it is finally accepted. All cost of maintenance Work by the CONTRACTOR during construction and before the Work is finally accepted shall be included in the unit prices on various pay items or lump sum bid and the CONTRACTOR will not be paid an additional amount for the Work. ---PAGE BREAK--- 15 11.08 DISPUTED CLAIMS.

If such notification is not given or the ENGINEER is not offered proper facilities by the CONTRACTOR for keeping strict account of cost, the CONTRACTOR hereby agrees to waive the claim for such extra compensation. In case the claim is found to be just, it shall be allowed and paid for as an extra as provided herein for "Extra Work". All Contractor claims against the Owner shall be initiated by a written claim submitted to the Owner and the Engineer. Such claim shall be received by the Owner and the Engineer no later than seven calendar days after the first appearance of the circumstances causing the claim, and before he begins the work on which he bases his claim. The Contractor shall set forth in detail all known facts and circumstances supporting the claim. The execution of a Change Order by the Contractor shall constitute conclusive evidence of the Contractor's agreement to the ordered changes in the work, this Contract as thus amended, the Contract Price, and the time for performance by the Contractor. The Contractor, by executing the Change order, waives and forever releases any claim against the Owner for additional time or compensation for matters relating to or arising out of or resulting from the work included within or affected by the executed Change Order. In all claims for adjusted compensation due to unexpected obstructions or other causes, where it is determined by the ENGINEER that compensation is due, the amount of compensation shall be based on an adjustment in quantities at the Unit Prices submitted with the CONTRACTOR'S original bid for the classification of WORK involved in the claim for adjusted compensation. The ENGINEER shall be the final authority in determining the reasonableness in applying a Unit Price to an item of work and the manner in which it is applied. 11.09 MATERIALS. Only materials conforming to the requirements of the specifications shall be used. All materials, before being incorporated in the work, shall be inspected and approved by the ENGINEER or his authorized representative. All materials which do not meet the requirements of these specifications will be rejected and shall be removed immediately from the job unless permitted by the ENGINEER to remain on the Work. The loss in replacing improper work or material shall furnish no ground to the CONTRACTOR for claiming additional compensation or extension of time for the completion of the Contract. Upon failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR to comply forthwith with any order of the ENGINEER made under the provisions of this paragraph, the ENGINEER shall have the authority to remove and replace defective material and to deduct the cost of removal and replacement from any money due or to become due to the CONTRACTOR. 11.10 WORK AREA.

If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide 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 family member (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 EO 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 award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 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 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 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, 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 identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that 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 new survey is conducted. Union Average Rate Identifiers 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 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. ---PAGE BREAK--- 50 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 Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be: * an existing published wage determination * a survey underlying a wage determination * a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter * a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests 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 and 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: Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 If the answer to the question in is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part Write to: Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue. If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to: Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final. END OF GENERAL DECISION
