As a result, paratransit ridership decreased 39.6% compared to 2006, with an average of 163 trips daily. II. History of the 2002 Transfort Strategic Operating Plan The first Transfort Strategic Operating Plan was completed in 1989. From 1989 to 2002, the City completed two Transit Development Plans which built upon the visions outlined in the Strategic Plan. Overall, the service changes implemented over that time period were a success. There were, however, several areas where new service failed to achieve a desired level of productivity. Fort Collins saw rapid growth during the nineties. With increases in traffic congestion and the Mason Corridor planned for the future, the City of Fort Collins undertook the 2002 update to the Strategic Operating Plan as an effort to: • Identify transit needs, opportunities and constraints, • Prepare a transit development plan and strategic plan for the system, and • Develop a more efficient and productive operating plan to support the strategic plan. To address the study objective, four primary steps were completed as part of the planning process: An analysis of existing conditions. The existing conditions analysis reviewed Transfort's operations in 1999 and service modifications implemented in 2000. To complete the existing conditions analysis, the consultant interviewed key stakeholders including Transfort staff and drivers. Ridership data was analyzed, and city travel conditions were reviewed as were Transfort's existing funding sources. Policy identification by City Council. During the second step of the study, focus turned to the City of Fort Collins' overall policies for the provision of transit services. Transfort staff presented findings of the existing conditions report to City Council representatives and City advisory committees to establish the goals for the service planning effort. Meetings and public open houses resulted in a call for allocating transit resources in a more "productive" manner. Service alternatives. This iterative process was based on the City's call for more "productive" transit service — service that carries a higher number of passengers per hour because it focuses on high ridership areas and dense transit corridors. Four service phase scenarios were developed. These phases identified increasing levels of investment in transit service that could be implemented over a ten-year period. Phase 1: Transfort Bus System (Implemented in January 2002). Complete This first no -budget growth alternative was a short-term service improvement plan. The focus was to provide modest modifications to the existing system. Many changes and improvements were implemented with limited disruption to the public. Phase 2: Minimal Redesign plus Mason Corridor Service This step adds the Mason Corridor service to the improvements made in Phase 1, above, and includes -the addition of new service on Harmony Road and Prospect Road. Implementation of this phase will improve the quality of Transfort operations and increase productivity of the Transfort system. The Harmony and Prospect routes were added to Transfort's system in 2007, along with a Page 10 new route on Timberline Road. The Mason Corridor service is planned to begin operation in 2011. The focus of this phase is to provide the backbone of a highly productive transit system which will serve the Fort Collins community for years to come. Phase 3: Transition to Grid Service Phase 3 is an extensive redesign based on the principle of optimizing service within the existing service area and eliminating inefficiencies in previous service design. Implementation of this step continues to enhance the quality of Transfort operations and will further increase productivity of the Transfort system. Phase 4: Proposed Grid Route System Whereas Phase 3 lays the foundation for the preferred system, execution of Phase 4 requires significant budget growth to build out to a full grid network. These improvements position Transfort for continuing growth in Fort Collins that is consistent with long-range land use plans included in "City Plan." Implementation of this phase continues to improve the quality of Transfort operations and to strengthen productivity of the Transfort system. Operating, Implementation and Financial Plans. In the final step, a recommended service design and Operating Plan was developed, along with plans to implement and finance the recommended services over a scheduled timeframe. III. Progress Since 2002 The 2002 Transfort Strategic Operating Plan created four phases for implementation. Phase 1 was implemented in 2002; Phase 2 was scheduled to be implemented by 2006; Phase 3 by 2008; and Phase 4 by 2010. The execution of the Strategic Operating Plan fell behind, due to a lack of funding and resources. There is no current forecast schedule for implementing the remaining phases of the plan due to the absence of a dedicated funding source. The 2002 Strategic Operating Plan laid out an implementation and financial plan, which recommended the amount of funding required at each phase of grid development, as well as possible funding sources. The funding options identified where: increased General Funds, fares, and ASCSU payments; a new sales and use tax; impact fees; special improvement district; and public/private partnerships. The timing of the 2002 plan coincided with the economic downturn that Larimer County and Fort Collins experienced, which made these funding scenarios prohibitive. VI. Why do we need to update the 2002 Strategic Operating Plan The need to implement the remaining phases of the Strategic Operating Plan continues to remain a high priority in order to continue progress toward a more productive and efficient transit system as well as to support existing and planned land use and the City's overall transportation system. This need arises from the land uses and transportation infrastructure that is currently being approved and constructed based upon the adopted policies and goals within the City Plan, Structure Plan, Transportation Master Plan, and the Master Street Plan. Each of these key planning documents is predicated upon the notion of having a functioning grid transit network to absorb the increased travel demands of our community. Page 11 VII. Study Scope and Schedule Staffs intent to update the 2002 Transfort Strategic Operating Plan is to foster a dialogue with the community on transit opportunities and challenges; review existing fixed route service and performance standards; examine the existing four phased approach to a grid transit network; and address the financial solutions required to create and sustain a high -performing transit system for our community. This update is also intended to provide the necessary information for the successful updates of the City Plan and Transportation Master Plan in 2009/2010. Project Scope and Schedule: 1.

Staff members of PSD and the City of Fort Collins are looking at scenarios where PSD could reduce student busing service in areas of the community where Transfort provides existing service. This analysis would be conducted for our existing conditions as well as looking at additional elimination of redundant routes as Transfort builds out to a grid network. This additional scope of work would be funded by the PSD; therefore, a separate alternative addressing the above -stated tasks should be provided in the final analysis and submitted independently. City of Loveland Participation The goal of Loveland participating in the Strategic Transit Plan is to update and expand upon the 2004 Loveland COLT Transit Plan. The 2004 COLT Transit Plan identified local issues and stakeholders, conducted core area analysis, examined the existing service, conducted a needs assessment, performed on -board surveys, received public input, developed service alternatives, discussed institutional and management alternatives, and provided a recommended plan for implementation. The plan recommended a five-year implementation schedule to make service modifications to be operated under contract by Transfort/Dial-A-Ride. Since 2004, few of these recommendations have been realized due to a lack of funding and resources. Four years later, there is no forecast schedule for implementation of this plan. Loveland currently has the opportunity to partner with the City of Fort Collins in conducting a Strategic Transit Plan for the two communities, which would look at providing service from the northern areas of Fort Collins to as far south as Longmont. Page 14 Study Scope and Schedule for Loveland Staff s intent in participating with the City of Fort Collins in developing a Strategic Transit Plan is to foster a dialogue with the community on transit opportunities and challenges; review existing fixed route service and performance standards; develop a ten year strategic plan; and address the financial solutions required to create and sustain a high -performing transit system for our region.

We will work with Transfort and City of Port Collins staff to prioritize information and identify available data sources and summaries to expedite the process and maxhnire efficiency. Information will be organized into, specific categories to streamline the process for data inquires during the course of the project. GIS topology will be used wherever possible to manage relevant information. Categories such as transportation networks, land use demographics, land use types household income,employment statistics, University populations,devetopment plans, environmental and travel behavior information will be organized for easy reference. David Evans a❑:I Ns. aialea, Ina: The current fixed route physical and operating characteristics, traffic conditions and other travel behavior information will be organized in a manner to support Task 6 for the evaluation of operating scenarios. Financial data and fare structure for the current Transfort system will also be organized for reference in Task 7. The DEA team recognizes that a project database has multiple uses. Needs may include periodic reference to confirm study area characteristics,the devdopmemof formal meeting exhibits to address critical topics and utilization of specific data for detailed operations planning and financial analysis. Our team places a high importance on data accuracy and organization to support many needs, and is well versed at tailoring data summaries and exhibits to serve multiple users. Task s Deliverablev • Data collection index • Project(; IS database with all relevant layers • Internal working files and databases as needed throughout project development process Task 6 — Review and Update Existing and Strategic fixed Route and Dial -A -Ride Operational Plans In this task, led by Jim Raker of Conaetics Transportation Group, the DEA team will begin with an extensive review of current Transfort transit service and performance characteristics to tint understand transit service need. A ncwv Strategic Operating Plant can then be prepared that builds upon the ideas from the 2002 Plan, but incorporates changes that address new service needs and phased strategies for a grid system. Given the magnitude and breadth of the this task, subtasks are described in much greater detail below Task 6 subtasks include. 6.1 Review Fitisting Fixed Route and Dial -A -Ride Service, as well as Associated Performance Standards Key information that will be needed from Transfort includes: • Daily, monthly and annual system and route level ridership reports • Route boardings and alightings (by stop, trip, direction, and time of day) • Route performance reports (e.g., reports detailing productivity factors such as passengers per bus -mile and/or bus -hour) • Recent fareboz data collection reports including boardings by fare category • Route travel time data including route run time analysis • Daily service requirements, (Le, miles, hours, peak and fleet vehicles required by route) for weekday, Saturday and Sunday • Current public timetables and system maps, headwayshects, most recent service run cut • Transforts current Annual Operating Budget and Fare Structure • List of transit equipment and facilities • List of service changes made by bid for the past three years fa'e 7 Page 23 David Itvans nod Associawt , Inc Strategic Opnre ft Plan - Transfort Section 3 - Scope of Wiwk Service productivity rrteasmes will then be identified on a systems and mate -level lws;s, by day of week and by bane period. Geographic areas or routes in the system that perthm wall or perform poorly will be identified. Common performance meaatres used to evaiharte fixed route services include: • passengers per revenue -hour • Passengers per revenue mile • Cost per passenger (operating subsidy per trip) • Fareboxrecovery (revenue percentagetooperating cost) Staff on the DEA team is familiar with performance monitoring treasures that are used at numerous transit agencies. %will evaluate current performance monitoring practices in place at Transfo t, and recommend a formal process to measure service performance, based on peer agency analysis and our own expe rience.

Local rkmograph is characteristics have changed considerably since 2002 and the CSU Transit Center is now in place. New shopping centers and residential neighborhoods have been constructed, and sonic needs may no longer be applicable. Corwers* there may be new service needs that were not apparent in 2002. Thus, it is important to not consider the 2002 plan as "set in stone, but rather, evaluate that plan's ability to address an updated set of conditions. Key factors in this evaluation will include the ability to serve identified transit markets; specific route alignments; frequencies; day of week operations; service spans; transfer needs and connections; integration with Mason Transportation Corridor plaits; and the ability to phase service changes. We propose a workshop with City staff to review results from this evaluation and to discuss potential modifications to the 2002 Strategic Plaos tong-rautp vision. Its envisioned that this evaluation will result in an updated long-range service plan that is incorporated into the updated Transfort Strategic Operating Plan. Task 6.3 Deliverables: • Technical Memorandum- Evaluation of 2002 Strategic Operating Plan and Recommended Long -Range Wan for New Strategic Operating Plan. 6.4 Update Operating and Financial Plans in Accordance with Each Phase of Grid Development A critical task in the development of this Strategic Plan is crafting impleracretable phases. The long-range vision in this Strategic Plan may reflect a need for financial sources that are not yet in place forTFansfort. furthermore, it is likely that transition to a grid network is going to need to be completed in phases - with regards to geography (e.g.,quadrants of the service area) and service levels. The appropriate number of phases depends on the extent to which service changes are proposed in the long-range vision, and the anticipated time period For reaching the long-range vision (e.g. 10-years,20-years). We suggest at minimum, the first phase should coincide with opening of the Mason Transportation Corridor Project An appropriatesecond phase might be 3 to 5 years after the Mason Transportation Corridor Projects opening yrar. Page v Page 25 David !,vans And A9sm iwvs, In( Jtfnregir Uperating Plan - I rianstorr Serrion 3 - Srope of R'ark Por each phase, detailed service plans will be developed that identify peak bus requirements and service statistics (revenue -miles and revanw-hours). Impacts on transit center operations, equipment andother facilities will also be identified. Financial requirements (capital and 0&M) will be incorporated into the Financial Plan (Task 7A). It may be beneficial to break-out service modifications within a particular phase into implementable "packages". For example, service recommeadations may include route interlines, or may include route alignment "swaps". Thus, it is important to implement service changes in a manner drat will not adversely affect service to a particular area, or adversely impact route interline plans. Task 6.4 Deliverables: Technical Memorandum -Draft of Phased Service Plans for the Updated Transfort Strategic Plan (including identification of operating and financial requirements by phase). 6.5 Regional Connections The City of Fort Collins has been a participant on the North 1-25 EIS effort. A component of this project has been the development of regional transit service plans. It will be important to integrate those regional transit plans with City transit services. Staff at connetics participated in the development of those plans, thus are familiar with current North 1-25 service proposals. The actual implementation of regional transit services in the North Front Range corridor is dependant on many conditions that are outside of the City$ control. As a result, the timing of such services remains an uncertainty. Nevertheless, it is important that this Strategic Operating Plan take into consideration proposed regional transit service plans and park -and -ride lot locations, and identify areas where transfer connections can be accommodated to meet regional trawl needs of North Front Range residents. Task 6.5 Deliverables: Technical Memorandum - Current Regional Transportation Service Plans and Integration Opportunities with Transfort Service 6.6 Final Operating and Financial Plans. The preparation of the Transfort Strategic Operating Plan will include participation "a public, key stakeholders and Fort Collins City Council members. It is anticipated that this input will result in theneed for modifications to the draft serviceplans p ioureditt Wks 6.3 and 6A.

Technical Memorandum -Final Service Plan Recommendations for the Strategic Operating Plan 6.7 Poudm School District Analysis Rick Evans of RAE Consultants, Inc. will lead this task and facilitate the process to address the feasibility of providing bus service to students attending secondary schools within the Pwdm Sdtod District. The task will explore opportunities for utilizing existing services and specific phases of a future grid system route structure. Page to Page 26 Dovid Ev,ins.md Assoctares, In" Strategic Operating Plan - Transfort Section 3 - Scope of Work ExistingServices The first step in this task will be to conduct stakeholder interviews or a focus group meeting with key representatives of the Poudre School District (PSD). The intent will be to determine specific interests or nerds in terms of secondary student use of Transfort bus service. An overview of current secondary school catchment areas will be obtained (via home zip codes or other sources) to determine the current interface with Transfort bus services. Existing school district transportation services will also be documented and assessed for their effectiveness and comparison to public transit route patterns. Current and potential future public transportation service options will discussed for each relevant school. Opportunities and perceived barriers to secondary student use of the public bus system will be identified and included in a summary report. Grid System Structure Daring this task the team will integrate PSD interests into development of the overall Transfort Strategic Operating Plan. The technical analysis will consider the tradeoffs and cost effectiveness of redundant services versus a single public transit provider. Two stakeholder outreach options will be considered. One option will be for the consultant to review overall Transfort service alternatives, being developed through Task 6, with the stakeholders to obtain feedback regarding how well the proposed service options fit with School District interests. The second option will be to conduct a secondary school focus group in conjunction with the other focus groups or CRP's. The goal will be to assure that PSD interests have been thoroughly considered in the development of the overall Strategic Plan. Task 6.7 Deliverables: Technical Memorandum — Draft and Final Feasibility Assessment and Recommendations for Provision of PSD Student Bus Service with Transfort Services. Task 7 - - Implementation and Financial Plan Ford Prick of BBC Research & Consulting will lead this task and provide key technical support for the Transfort Strategic Operating Plan Financial Task Force. Funding and financial information will be documented in technical memoranda for use at Task Force and other standing committee meetings. In addition, representatives from BBC and the overall DEA team will be available to attend specific meetings as prescribed. Task 7subtasks Include, 7.1 Develop pare Policies and Structure This task will involve an initial review and subsequent work session with Transfort and City staff to address current fare policies and structure. It will be essential to understand current perspectives on fare structure and if there are critical issues and policies that require special attention. The DEA team will work closely with Transfort, the City and the Financial Task Force to examine the tradeoffs and sensitivities associated with fare policy adjustments. Tradeoffs of most importance would include, general ridership incentives or disincentives, revenue streams, compatibility with connecting regional services, transit pass concepts and payment methods. Fare policy recommendations will be considered concurrently with the finding source analysis in subtask 7.2. Task7.1 Deliverable Technical Memorandum — Fare Policy and Structure Review and Recommendations 7.2 Funding Source Analysis This task will begin with a review of the existing Transfort funding structure and, with the DEA team and Transfort staff support, examine the proposed costs of system enhancement, This Page II Page 27 Cn a CO— [tins Strategic Operating plan - Transfi�rt �-.,, section 3 -and of Wnrk analysis will include a preliminary evaluation of various institutional Lion 3 -and financing mechanisms appropriate for a project of this magnitude, David titans and Associ4w,%, Inc BBC will develop an array of funding options and rewroic enhancement prospects for consideration by the Financial Task Force.

(iv) (A) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics 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.

In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement. 17. Prohibition Against Employing Illegal Aliens. Pursuant to Section 8-17.5-101, C.R.S., et. seq., Professional represents and agrees that: a. As of the date of this Agreement: Page 4 (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 (3)(ii)(B) of this section.

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, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on 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 performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not 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 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. If the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. Page 9 (ii) Trainees - Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (iii) Equal employment opportunity - The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 1 1 246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.

The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5. (7) Contract termination: debarment - A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12. (8) Compliance with Davis -Bacon and Related Act requirements - All rulings and interpretations of the Davis -Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract. (9) Disputes concerning labor standards - Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives. (10) Certification of eligibility Page 10 (i) By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis - Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).

(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages - In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (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 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 (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 (1) of this section. (3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages - The City of Fort Collins 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 (2) of this section. (4) Subcontracts - The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in this section and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in this section. Page 11 (5) Payrolls and basic records - (i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937, or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the construction or development of the project). Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in section 1 (b)(2)(B) of the Davis -Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in section 1 (b)(2)(B) of the Davis -Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs. Section 107 (OSHA): Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (i) The Contractor agrees to comply with section 107 of the Contract t Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, 40 U.S.C. section 333, and applicable DOL regulations, " Safety and Health Regulations for Construction " 29 C.F.R. Part 1926. Among other things, the Contractor agrees that it will not require any laborer or mechanic to work in unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous surroundings or working conditions. (ii) Subcontracts - The Contractor also agrees to include the requirements of this section in each subcontract. The term "subcontract" under this section is considered to refer to a person who agrees to perform any part of the labor or material requirements of a contract for construction, alteration or repair. A person who undertakes to perform a portion of a contract involving the furnishing of supplies or materials will be considered a "subcontractor' under this section if the work in question involves the performance of construction work and is to be performed: (1) directly on or near the construction site, or (2) by the employer for the specific project on a customized basis. Thus, a supplier of materials which will become an integral part of the construction is a "subcontractor' if the supplier fabricates or assembles the goods or materials in question specifically for the construction project and the work involved may be said to be construction activity. If the goods or materials in question are ordinarily sold to other customers from regular inventory, the supplier is not a "subcontractor." The requirements of this section do not apply to contracts or subcontracts for the purchase of supplies or materials or articles normally available on the open market.

In addition to other penalties that may be applicable, the Contractor further acknowledges that if it makes, or causes to be made, a false, fictitious, or fraudulent claim, statement, submission, or certification, the Federal Government reserves the right to impose the penalties of the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986 on the Contractor to the extent the Federal Government deems appropriate. (2) The Contractor also acknowledges that if it makes, or causes to be made, a false, fictitious, or fraudulent claim, statement, submission, or certification to the Federal Government under a contract connected with a project that is financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance originally awarded by FTA under the authority of 49 U.S.C.. 5307, the Government reserves the right to impose the penalties of 18 U.S.C.. 1001 and 49 U.S.C.. 5307(n)(1) on the Contractor, to the extent the Federal Government deems appropriate. (3) The Contractor agrees to include the above two clauses in each subcontract financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. It is further agreed that the clauses shall not be modified, except to identify the subcontractor who will be subject to the provisions. TERMINATION 49 U.S.C. Part 18 FTA Circular 4220.1 D Page 13 a.

In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions. If Contractor fails to remedy to the City of Fort Collins' satisfaction the breach or default or any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Contract within [ten (1 0) days] after receipt by Contractor or written notice from the City of Fort Collins setting forth the nature of said breach or default, the City of Fort Collins shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further obligation to Contractor.

Waiver of Remedies for any Breach In the event that the City of Fort Collins elects to waive its remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this Contract, such waiver by the City of Fort Collins shall not limit the City of Fort Collins's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract. e.

The Contractor and the City of Fort Collins shall agree on payment for the Preservation and protection of goods. Failure to agree on an amount will be resolved under the Dispute clause. If, after termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the City of Fort Collins. g. Termination for Default (Construction) If the Contractor refuses or fails to prosecute the work or any separable part, with the diligence that will insure its completion within the time specified in this contract or any extension or fails to complete the work within this time, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract, the City of Fort Collins may terminate this contract for default. The City of Fort Collins shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the default. In this event, the Recipient may take over the work and compete it by contract or otherwise, and may take possession of and use any materials, appliances, and plant on the work site necessary for completing the work. The Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for any damage to the Recipient resulting from the Contractor's refusal or failure to complete the work within specified time, whether or not the Contractor's right to proceed with the work is terminated. This liability includes any increased costs incurred by the Recipient in completing the work. The Contractor's right to proceed shall not be terminated nor the Contractor changed with damages under this clause if- 1. the delay in completing the work arises from unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Examples of such causes include: acts of God, acts of the Recipient, acts of another Contractor in the performance of a contract with the Recipient, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes; and 2. the contractor, within [1 0] days from the beginning of any delay, notifies the City of Fort Collins in writing of the causes of delay. If in the judgment of the City of Fort Collins, the delay is excusable, the time for completing the work shall be extended.

Termination for Convenience or Default (Architect and Engineering) The City of Fort Collins may terminate this contract in whole or in part, for the Recipient's convenience or because of the failure of the Contractor to fulfill the contract obligations.

PATENT AND RIGHTS IN DATA 37 CFR Part 401 49 CFR Parts 18 and 19 The FTA patent clause is substantially similar to the text of 49 C.F.R. Part 19, Appendix A, Section 5, but the rights in data clause reflects FTA objectives. For patent rights, FT/k is governed by Federal law and regulation. For data rights, the text on copyrights is insufficient to meet FTA's purposes for awarding research grants. This model clause, with larger rights ,as a standard, is proposed with the understanding that this standard could be modified to FTA's needs. CONTRACTS INVOLVING EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, OR RESEARCH WORK A. Rights in Data - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental or research work: (1) The term "subject data" used in this clause means recorded information, whether or not copyrighted, that is delivered or specified to be delivered under the contract.

Examples include, but are not limited to: computer software, engineering drawings and associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical reports, catalog item identifications, and related information. The term "subject data" does not include financial reports, cost analyses, and similar information incidental to contract administration. (2) The following restrictions apply to all subject data first produced in the performance of the contract to which this Attachment has been added: (a) Except for its own internal use, the Purchaser or Contractor may not publish or reproduce subject data in whole or in part, or in any manner or form, nor may the Purchaser or Contractor authorize others to do so, without the written consent of the Federal Government, until such time as the Federal Government may have either released or approved the release of such data to the public; this restriction on publication, however, does not apply to any contract with an academic institution. (b) In accordance with 49 C.F.R., 18.34 and 49 C.F.R.. 19.36, the Federal Government reserves a royalty -free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, for "Federal Government purposes," any subject data or copyright described in subsections (2)(b)I and (2)(b)2 of this clause below. As used in the previous sentence, "for Federal Government purposes," means use only for the direct purposes of the Federal Government. Without the copyright owner's consent, the Federal Government may not extend its Federal license to any other party. Page 20 1.

Any rights of copyright purchased by the Purchaser or Contractor using Federal assistance in whole or in part provided by FTA.

If the experimental, developmental, or research work, which is the subject of the underlying contract, is not completed for any reason whatsoever, all data developed under that contract shall become subject data as defined in subsection (a) of this clause and shall be delivered as the Federal Government may direct. (c) This subsection (c) , however, does not apply to adaptations of automatic data processing equipment or programs for the Purchaser or Contractor's use whose costs are financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA for transportation capital projects. (d) Unless prohibited by state law, upon request by the Federal Government, the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the Federal Government, its officers, agents, and employees acting within the scope of their official duties against any liability, including costs and expenses, resulting from any willful or intentional violation by the Purchaser or Contractor of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data furnished under that contract. Neither the Purchaser nor the Contractor shall be required to indemnify the Federal Government for any such liability arising out of the wrongful act of any employee, official, or agents of the Federal Government. (e) Nothing contained in this clause on rights in data shall imply a license to the Federal Government under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope of any license or other right otherwise granted to the Federal Government under any patent. (f) Data developed by the Purchaser or Contractor and financed entirely without using Federal assistance provided by the Federal Government that has been incorporated into work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment has been added is exempt from the requirements of subsections (b), (c), and (d) of this clause , provided that the Purchaser or Contractor identifies that data in writing at the time of delivery of the contract work. (g) Unless FTA determines otherwise, the Contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA.

(2) Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S. Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R.
