as specified in the Service Agreement with the expectation of up to a five year continuing
relationship as City funding permits. Each year any pricing changes shall be negotiated by and
agreed to by both parties, subject to the limits set forth in the Service Agreement. Price
increases shall be justified by evidence of increased costs, such as supplier’s invoices. Prices
of materials are quoted for one year on a “not greater than” basis with the expectation that the
bidder can pass on discounted prices to the City of Fort Collins if available.
V. Work Order Initiation
The awarded Service Provider will be contacted by the City IT Network Project Engineer and
asked to provide a price quote for a specific cabling job, based on the rates they have bid on
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C
Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 13 of 62
the enclosed Parts Price List and the Labor Rates Price Lists, which will become part of the
signed Service Agreement. The Service Provider must advise the City IT Network Project
Engineer if they cannot provide a quote or would not be able to complete a cabling job on
schedule because of prior commitments, or for any other reason. In this case the City IT
Network Project Engineer will contact other providers to provide the service. A Work Order form
shall be completed and signed for each job, in accordance with the Work Order Service
Agreement. Service Provider’s inability to quote on a specific job will not affect their status as
the awarded vendor for subsequent cabling jobs.
VI. Special Conditions and Instructions
The City of Fort Collins reserves the right, based on the Service Provider’s subsequent
performance, to terminate any awarded Work Order Service Agreement after written notice of
any infractions is given and corrective actions are not satisfactory, or for misrepresentation of
the claims stated in his/her bid.

IN CONNECTION WITH SERVICES provided to the City of Fort Collins (the “City”) pursuant to
this Agreement (the “Agreement”), the Service Provider hereby acknowledges that it has been
informed that the City has established policies and procedures with regard to the handling of
confidential information and other sensitive materials.
In consideration of access to certain information, data and material (hereinafter individually and
collectively, regardless of nature, referred to as “information”) that are the property of and/or
relate to the City or its employees, customers or suppliers, which access is related to the
performance of services that the Service Provider has agreed to perform, the Service Provider
hereby acknowledges and agrees as follows:
That information that has or will come into its possession or knowledge in connection with the
performance of services for the City may be confidential and/or proprietary. The Service
Provider agrees to treat as confidential (a) all information that is owned by the City, or that
relates to the business of the City, or that is used by the City in carrying on business, and (b) all
information that is proprietary to a third party (including but not limited to customers and
suppliers of the City). The Service Provider shall not disclose any such information to any
person not having a legitimate need-to-know for purposes authorized by the City. Further, the
Service Provider shall not use such information to obtain any economic or other benefit for itself,
or any third party, except as specifically authorized by the City.
The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Service Provider understands that it shall
have no obligation under this Agreement with respect to information and material that (a)
becomes generally known to the public by publication or some means other than a breach of
duty of this Agreement, or (b) is required by law, regulation or court order to be disclosed,
provided that the request for such disclosure is proper and the disclosure does not exceed that
which is required. In the event of any disclosure under (b) above, the Service Provider shall
furnish a copy of this Agreement to anyone to whom it is required to make such disclosure and
shall promptly advise the City in writing of each such disclosure.
In the event that the Service Provider ceases to perform services for the City, or the City so
requests for any reason, the Service Provider shall promptly return to the City any and all
information described hereinabove, including all copies, notes and/or summaries (handwritten or
mechanically produced) thereof, in its possession or control or as to which it otherwise has
access.
The Service Provider understands and agrees that the City’s remedies at law for a breach of the
Service Provider’s obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement may be inadequate and that
the City shall, in the event of any such breach, be entitled to seek equitable relief (including
without limitation preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and specific performance) in
addition to all other remedies provided hereunder or available at law.

FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION
FEDERALLY REQUIRED AND OTHER MODEL CONTRACT CLAUSES
NO GOVERNMENT OBLIGATION TO THIRD PARTIES
Applicability to Contracts

concept should flow down to all levels to clarify, to all parties to the contract, that the
Federal Government does not have contractual liability to third parties, absent specific
written consent.
Model Clause/Language
While no specific language is required, FTA has developed the following language.
No Obligation by the Federal Government.
(1) The Purchaser and Contractor acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any
concurrence by the Federal Government in or approval of the solicitation or award of
the underlying contract, absent the express written consent by the Federal
Government, the Federal Government is not a party to this contract and shall not be
subject to any obligations or liabilities to the Purchaser, Contractor, or any other party
(whether or not a party to that contract) pertaining to any matter resulting from the
underlying contract.

Applicability to Contracts
These requirements are applicable to all contracts.
Flow Down
These requirements flow down to contractors and subcontractors who make, present, or
submit covered claims and statements.

(1) The Contractor acknowledges that the provisions of the Program Fraud Civil Remedies
Act of 1986, as amended, 31 U.S.C. § 3801 et seq. and U.S. DOT regulations,
"Program Fraud Civil Remedies," 49 C.F.R. Part 31, apply to its actions pertaining to
this Project. Upon execution of the underlying contract, the Contractor certifies or
affirms the truthfulness and accuracy of any statement it has made, it makes, it may
make, or causes to be made, pertaining to the underlying contract or the FTA assisted
project for which this contract work is being performed. 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.

maintain same until the Purchaser, the FTA Administrator, the Comptroller General, or
any of their duly authorized representatives, have disposed of all such litigation,
appeals, claims or exceptions related thereto. Reference 49 CFR 18.39(i)(11).

Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 27 of 62
(FTA Circular 4220.1E)
Applicability to Contracts
The incorporation of FTA terms applies to all contracts.
Flow Down
The incorporation of FTA terms has unlimited flow down.
Model Clause/Language
FTA has developed the following incorporation of terms language:
Incorporation of Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Terms - The preceding
provisions include, in part, certain Standard Terms and Conditions required by DOT,
whether or not expressly set forth in the preceding contract provisions. All contractual
provisions required by DOT, as set forth in FTA Circular 4220.1E, are hereby incorporated
by reference. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, all FTA mandated terms
shall be deemed to control in the event of a conflict with other provisions contained in this
Agreement. The Contractor shall not perform any act, fail to perform any act, or refuse to
comply with any (name of grantee) requests which would cause (name of grantee) to be in
violation of the FTA terms and conditions.
ENERGY CONSERVATION REQUIREMENTS
(42 U.S.C. 6321 et seq. 49 CFR Part 18)
Applicability to Contracts
The Energy Conservation requirements are applicable to all contracts.
Flow Down
The Energy Conservation requirements extend to all third party contractors and their
contracts at every tier and subrecipients and their subagreements at every tier.
Model Clause/Language

requirements are so dependent on the state energy conservation plan. The following
language has been developed by FTA:
Energy Conservation - The contractor agrees to comply with mandatory standards and
policies relating to energy efficiency which are contained in the state energy conservation
plan issued in compliance with the Energy Policy and Conservation Act.

threshold is $100,000.) In addition, such contracts shall describe conditions under which
the contract may be terminated for default as well as conditions where the contract may be
terminated because of circumstances beyond the control of the contractor.

8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 28 of 62
Flow Down
The termination requirements flow down to all contracts in excess of $10,000, with the
exception of contracts with nonprofit organizations and institutions of higher learning.
Model Clause/Language
FTA does not prescribe the form or content of such clauses. The following are
suggestions of clauses to be used in different types of contracts:
a. Termination for Convenience (General Provision) The (Recipient) may terminate
this contract, in whole or in part, at any time by written notice to the Contractor when it
is in the Government's best interest. The Contractor shall be paid its costs, including
contract close-out costs, and profit on work performed up to the time of termination.
The Contractor shall promptly submit its termination claim to (Recipient) to be paid the
Contractor. If the Contractor has any property in its possession belonging to the
(Recipient), the Contractor will account for the same, and dispose of it in the manner
the (Recipient) directs.
b. Termination for Default [Breach or Cause] (General Provision) If the Contractor
does not deliver supplies in accordance with the contract delivery schedule, or, if the
contract is for services, the Contractor fails to perform in the manner called for in the
contract, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of the contract,
the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. Termination shall be effected
by serving a notice of termination on the contractor setting forth the manner in which
the Contractor is in default. The contractor will only be paid the contract price for
supplies delivered and accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner
of performance set forth in the contract.
If it is later determined by the (Recipient) that the Contractor had an excusable reason
for not performing, such as a strike, fire, or flood, events which are not the fault of or
are beyond the control of the Contractor, the (Recipient), after setting up a new
delivery of performance schedule, may allow the Contractor to continue work, or treat
the termination as a termination for convenience.
c. Opportunity to Cure (General Provision) The (Recipient) in its sole discretion may, in
the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the Contractor [an appropriately
short period of time] in which to cure the defect. 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 (Recipient)'s satisfaction the breach or default of any of
the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Contract within [ten (10) days] after receipt
by Contractor of written notice from (Recipient) setting forth the nature of said breach
or default, (Recipient) shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further
obligation to Contractor. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate
to preclude (Recipient) from also pursuing all available remedies against Contractor
and its sureties for said breach or default.
d. Waiver of Remedies for any Breach In the event that (Recipient) elects to waive its
remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this
Contract, such waiver by (Recipient) shall not limit (Recipient)'s remedies for any
succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract.

Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 29 of 62
e. Termination for Convenience (Professional or Transit Service Contracts) The
(Recipient), by written notice, may terminate this contract, in whole or in part, when it is
in the Government's interest. If this contract is terminated, the Recipient shall be liable
only for payment under the payment provisions of this contract for services rendered
before the effective date of termination.
f. Termination for Default (Supplies and Service) If the Contractor fails to deliver
supplies or to perform the services within the time specified in this contract or any
extension or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract,
the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. The (Recipient) shall terminate
by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the
default. The Contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies delivered and
accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner or performance set
forth in this contract.
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 Recipient.
g. Termination for Default (Transportation Services) If the Contractor fails to pick up
the commodities or to perform the services, including delivery services, within the time
specified in this contract or any extension or if the Contractor fails to comply with any
other provisions of this contract, the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default.
The (Recipient) shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination
specifying the nature of default. The Contractor will only be paid the contract price for
services performed in accordance with the manner of performance set forth in this
contract.
If this contract is terminated while the Contractor has possession of Recipient goods,
the Contractor shall, upon direction of the (Recipient), protect and preserve the goods
until surrendered to the Recipient or its agent. The Contractor and (Recipient) 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 (Recipient).
h. 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 (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. The (Recipient) 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
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C
Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 30 of 62
increased costs incurred by the Recipient in completing the work.
The Contractor's right to proceed shall not be terminated nor the Contractor charged
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 [10] days from the beginning of any delay, notifies the
(Recipient) in writing of the causes of delay. If in the judgment of the (Recipient),
the delay is excusable, the time for completing the work shall be extended. The
judgment of the (Recipient) shall be final and conclusive on the parties, but subject
to appeal under the Disputes clauses.
If, after termination of the Contractor's right to proceed, it is determined that the
Contractor was not in default, or that the delay was excusable, the rights and
obligations of the parties will be the same as if the termination had been issued for the
convenience of the Recipient.
i. Termination for Convenience or Default (Architect and Engineering) The
(Recipient) 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. The (Recipient) shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of
Termination specifying the nature, extent, and effective date of the termination. Upon
receipt of the notice, the Contractor shall (1) immediately discontinue all services
affected (unless the notice directs otherwise), and (2) deliver to the Contracting Officer
all data, drawings, specifications, reports, estimates, summaries, and other information
and materials accumulated in performing this contract, whether completed or in
process.
If the termination is for the convenience of the Recipient, the Contracting Officer shall
make an equitable adjustment in the contract price but shall allow no anticipated profit
on unperformed services.
If the termination is for failure of the Contractor to fulfill the contract obligations, the
Recipient may complete the work by contact or otherwise and the Contractor shall be
liable for any additional cost incurred by the Recipient.
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 Recipient.
j. Termination for Convenience of Default (Cost-Type Contracts) The (Recipient) may
terminate this contract, or any portion of it, by serving a notice or termination on the
Contractor. The notice shall state whether the termination is for convenience of the
(Recipient) or for the default of the Contractor. If the termination is for default, the
notice shall state the manner in which the contractor has failed to perform the
requirements of the contract. The Contractor shall account for any property in its

possession paid for from funds received from the (Recipient), or property supplied to
the Contractor by the (Recipient). If the termination is for default, the (Recipient) may
fix the fee, if the contract provides for a fee, to be paid the contractor in proportion to
the value, if any, of work performed up to the time of termination. The Contractor shall
promptly submit its termination claim to the (Recipient) and the parties shall negotiate
the termination settlement to be paid the Contractor.
If the termination is for the convenience of the (Recipient), the Contractor shall be paid
its contract close-out costs, and a fee, if the contract provided for payment of a fee, in
proportion to the work performed up to the time of termination.
If, after serving a notice of termination for default, the (Recipient) determines that the
Contractor has an excusable reason for not performing, such as strike, fire, flood,
events which are not the fault of and are beyond the control of the contractor, the
(Recipient), after setting up a new work schedule, may allow the Contractor to continue
work, or treat the termination as a termination for convenience.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION (NONPROCUREMENT)
Background and Applicability
In conjunction with the Office of Management and Budget and other affected Federal
agencies, DOT published an update to 49 CFR Part 29 on November 26, 2003. This
government-wide regulation implements Executive Order 12549, Debarment and
Suspension, Executive Order 12689, Debarment and Suspension, and 31 U.S.C. 6101
note (Section 2455, Public Law 103-355, 108 Stat. 3327).
The provisions of Part 29 apply to all grantee contracts and subcontracts at any level
expected to equal or exceed $25,000 as well as any contract or subcontract (at any level)
for Federally required auditing services. 49 CFR 29.220(b). This represents a change
from prior practice in that the dollar threshold for application of these rules has been
lowered from $100,000 to $25,000. These are contracts and subcontracts referred to in
the regulation as “covered transactions.”
Grantees, contractors, and subcontractors (at any level) that enter into covered
transactions are required to verify that the entity (as well as its principals and affiliates)
they propose to contract or subcontract with is not excluded or disqualified. They do this
by (a) Checking the Excluded Parties List System, (b) Collecting a certification from that
person, or (c) Adding a clause or condition to the contract or subcontract. This represents
a change from prior practice in that certification is still acceptable but is no longer required.
49 CFR 29.300.
Grantees, contractors, and subcontractors who enter into covered transactions also must
require the entities they contract with to comply with 49 CFR 29, subpart C and include
this requirement in their own subsequent covered transactions (i.e., the requirement flows
down to subcontracts at all levels).
Clause Language
The following clause language is suggested, not mandatory. It incorporates the optional
method of verifying that contractors are not excluded or disqualified by certification.

This contract is a covered transaction for purposes of 49 CFR Part 29. As such, the
contractor is required to verify that none of the contractor, its principals, as defined at 49
CFR 29.995, or affiliates, as defined at 49 CFR 29.905, are excluded or disqualified as
defined at 49 CFR 29.940 and 29.945.
The contractor is required to comply with 49 CFR 29, Subpart C and must include the
requirement to comply with 49 CFR 29, Subpart C in any lower tier covered transaction it
enters into.
By signing and submitting its bid or proposal, the bidder or proposer certifies as follows:
The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact relied upon by the City of
Fort Collins. If it is later determined that the bidder or proposer knowingly rendered an
erroneous certification, in addition to remedies available to the City of Fort Collins, the
Federal Government may pursue available remedies, including but not limited to
suspension and/or debarment. The bidder or proposer agrees to comply with the
requirements of 49 CFR 29, Subpart C while this offer is valid and throughout the period of
any contract that may arise from this offer. The bidder or proposer further agrees to
include a provision requiring such compliance in its lower tier covered transactions.
CARGO PREFERENCE REQUIREMENTS
(46 U.S.C. 1241 , 46 CFR Part 381)
Applicability to Contracts
The Cargo Preference requirements apply to all contracts involving equipment, materials,
or commodities which may be transported by ocean vessels.
Flow Down
The Cargo Preference requirements apply to all subcontracts when the subcontract may
be involved with the transport of equipment, material, or commodities by ocean vessel.
Model Clause/Language
The MARAD regulations at 46 CFR 381.7 contain suggested contract clauses. The
following language is proffered by FTA.
Cargo Preference - Use of United States-Flag Vessels - The contractor agrees: a. to
use privately owned United States-Flag commercial vessels to ship at least 50 percent of
the gross tonnage (computed separately for dry bulk carriers, dry cargo liners, and
tankers) involved, whenever shipping any equipment, material, or commodities pursuant to
the underlying contract to the extent such vessels are available at fair and reasonable
rates for United States-Flag commercial vessels; b. to furnish within 20 working days
following the date of loading for shipments originating within the United States or within 30
working days following the date of leading for shipments originating outside the United
States, a legible copy of a rated, "on-board" commercial ocean bill-of -lading in English for
each shipment of cargo described in the preceding paragraph to the Division of National
Cargo, Office of Market Development, Maritime Administration, Washington, DC 20590
and to the FTA recipient (through the contractor in the case of a subcontractor's bill-of-
lading.) c. to include these requirements in all subcontracts issued pursuant to this
contract when the subcontract may involve the transport of equipment, material, or
commodities by ocean vessel.

Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 33 of 62
Background and Application
The Davis-Bacon and Copeland Acts are codified at 40 USC 3141, et seq. and 18 USC
874. The Acts apply to grantee construction contracts and subcontracts that “at least
partly are financed by a loan or grant from the Federal Government.” 40 USC 3145(a), 29
CFR 5.2(h), 49 CFR 18.36(i)(5). The Acts apply to any construction contract over $2,000.
40 USC 3142(a), 29 CFR 5.5(a). ‘Construction,’ for purposes of the Acts, includes “actual
construction, alteration and/or repair, including painting and decorating.” 29 CFR 5.5(a).
The requirements of both Acts are incorporated into a single clause (see 29 CFR 3.11)
enumerated at 29 CFR 5.5(a) and reproduced below.
The clause language is drawn directly from 29 CFR 5.5(a) and any deviation from the
model clause below should be coordinated with counsel to ensure the Acts’ requirements
are satisfied.
Clause Language
Davis-Bacon and Copeland Anti-Kickback Acts
(1) Minimum wages - (i) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon 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), 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 (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, except as provided in
29 CFR Part 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 classifications and wage rates conformed
under paragraph (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

Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 34 of 62
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) Except with respect to helpers as defined as 29 CFR 5.2(n)(4), 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; and
(4) With respect to helpers as defined in 29 CFR 5.2(n)(4), such a classification
prevails in the area in which the work is performed.
(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, modify, or disapprove every additional
classification action 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.
(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 appropriate), 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 laborers
or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the
contractor shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay
another bona 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 reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan
or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C

8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 35 of 62
of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met.
The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate account
assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.
(v)(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. The
contracting officer shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe
benefits therefor 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, Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification
action 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.
(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 appropriate), 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 with 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)(v) (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.
(2) Withholding - The [ insert name of grantee ] 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 the contractor under this contract or any other Federal contract
with the same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract subject to
Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime
contractor, so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered
necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and
helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages

required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic,
including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on 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), all or part of the wages
required by the contract, the [ insert name of grantee ] 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 until
such violations have ceased.
(2) 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.
(ii)(A) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is
performed a copy of all payrolls to the [ insert name of grantee ] for transmission to
the Federal Transit Administration. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and
completely all of the information required to be maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of
Regulations, 29 CFR part 5. This information may be submitted in any form desired.
Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose and may be purchased from the
Superintendent of Documents (Federal Stock Number 029-005-00014-1), U.S.
Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. The prime contractor is
responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors.
(B) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance,"
signed by the contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises
the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following:
(1) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be
maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5 and that such
information is correct and complete;
(2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee)
employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C
Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 37 of 62
wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have
been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than
permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations, 29 CFR part 3;
(3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage
rates and 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 Federal Transit Administration 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.
(3) 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
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C
Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 38 of 62
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.
(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 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
(5) Compliance with Copeland Act requirements - The contractor shall comply with the
requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.
(6) Subcontracts - The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the
clauses contained in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1) through (10) and such other clauses as the
Federal Transit Administration may by appropriate instructions require, and also a
clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier
subcontracts. 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 - (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).
(ii) No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for
award of a Government contract by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29
CFR 5.12(a)(1).
(iii) The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Criminal Code,
18 U.S.C. 1001.
CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT
Background and Application
The Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act is codified at 40 USC 3701, et seq.
The Act applies to grantee contracts and subcontracts “financed at least in part by loans or
grants from … the [Federal] Government.” 40 USC 3701(b)(1)(B)(iii) and (b)(2), 29 CFR
5.2(h), 49 CFR 18.36(i)(6). Although the original Act required its application in any
construction contract over $2,000 or non-construction contract to which the Act applied
over $2,500 (and language to that effect is still found in 49 CFR 18.36(i)(6)), the Act no
longer applies to any “contract in an amount that is not greater than $100,000.” 40 USC
3701(b)(3) (A)(iii).
The Act applies to construction contracts and, in very limited circumstances, non-
construction projects that employ “laborers or mechanics on a public work.” These non-
construction applications do not generally apply to transit procurements because transit
procurements (to include rail cars and buses) are deemed “commercial items.” 40 USC
3707, 41 USC 403 (12). A grantee that contemplates entering into a contract to procure a
developmental or unique item should consult counsel to determine if the Act applies to that
procurement and that additional language required by 29 CFR 5.5(c) must be added to the
basic clause below.
The clause language is drawn directly from 29 CFR 5.5(b) and any deviation from the
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C

model clause below should be coordinated with counsel to ensure the Act’s requirements
are satisfied.
Clause Language
Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards
(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 (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 (write in the name of
the grantee) 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

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 paragraphs (1) through (4) of 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 paragraphs (1) through (4) of this section.
DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE)
(49 CFR Part 26)
Background and Applicability
The newest version on the Department of Transportation’s Disadvantaged Business
Enterprise (DBE) program became effective July 16, 2003. The rule provides guidance to
grantees on the use of overall and contract goals, requirement to include DBE provisions
in subcontracts, evaluating DBE participation where specific contract goals have been set,
reporting requirements, and replacement of DBE subcontractors. Additionally, the DBE

8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 41 of 62
program dictates payment terms and conditions (including limitations on retainage)
applicable to all subcontractors regardless of whether they are DBE firms or not.
The DBE program applies to all DOT-assisted contracting activities. A formal clause such
as that below must be included in all contracts above the micro-purchase level. The
requirements of clause subsection b flow down to subcontracts.
A substantial change to the payment provisions in this newest version of Part 26 concerns
retainage (see section 26.29). Grantee choices concerning retainage should be reflected
in the language choices in clause subsection d.
Clause Language
The following clause language is suggested, not mandatory. It incorporates the payment
terms and conditions applicable to all subcontractors based in Part 26 as well as those
related only to DBE subcontractors. The suggested language allows for the options
available to grantees concerning retainage, specific contract goals, and evaluation of DBE
subcontracting participation when specific contract goals have been established.
Disadvantaged Business Enterprises
a. This contract is subject to the requirements of Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations,
Part 26, Participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Department of
Transportation Financial Assistance Programs. The national goal for participation of
Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) is 10%. The agency’s overall goal for
DBE participation is 5 %. A contract goal of 5 % DBE participation has been
established for this procurement.
b. The contractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex
in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable
requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in the award and administration of this DOT-assisted
contract. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach
of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other
remedy as the City of Fort Collins deems appropriate. Each subcontract the contractor
signs with a subcontractor must include the assurance in this paragraph (see 49 CFR
26.13(b)).
c. Bidders/offerors are required to document sufficient DBE participation to meet these
goals or, alternatively, document adequate good faith efforts to do so, as provided for
in 49 CFR 26.53. Award of this contract is conditioned on submission of the
following concurrent with and accompanying sealed bid:
1. The names and addresses of DBE firms that will participate in this contract;
2. A description of the work each DBE will perform;
3. The dollar amount of the participation of each DBE firm participating;
4. Written documentation of the bidder/offeror’s commitment to use a DBE
subcontractor whose participation it submits to meet the contract goal;
5. Written confirmation from the DBE that it is participating in the contract as provided
in the prime contractor’s commitment; and
6. If the contract goal is not met, evidence of good faith efforts to do so.
Bidders must present the information required above as a matter of responsiveness
(see 49 CFR 26.53(3)).

{If no separate contract goal has been established, use the following} The
successful bidder/offeror will be required to report its DBE participation obtained
through race-neutral means throughout the period of performance.
d. The contractor is required to pay its subcontractors performing work related to this
contract for satisfactory performance of that work no later than 30 days after the
contractor’s receipt of payment for that work from the City of Fort Collins. In addition,
the contractor may not hold retainage from its subcontractors and is required to return
any retainage payments to those subcontractors within 30 days after the
subcontractor's work related to this contract is satisfactorily completed.
e. The contractor must promptly notify the City of Fort Collins whenever a DBE
subcontractor performing work related to this contract is terminated or fails to complete
its work, and must make good faith efforts to engage another DBE subcontractor to
perform at least the same amount of work. The contractor may not terminate any DBE
subcontractor and perform that work through its own forces or those of an affiliate
without prior written consent of the City of Fort Collins.
RECYCLED PRODUCTS
(42 U.S.C. 6962, 40 CFR Part 247, Executive Order 12873)
Applicability to Contracts
The Recycled Products requirements apply to all contracts for items designated by the
EPA, when the purchaser or contractor procures $10,000 or more of one of these items
during the fiscal year, or has procured $10,000 or more of such items in the previous fiscal
year, using Federal funds. New requirements for "recovered materials" will become
effective May 1, 1996. These new regulations apply to all procurement actions involving
items designated by the EPA, where the procuring agency purchases $10,000 or more of
one of these items in a fiscal year, or when the cost of such items purchased during the
previous fiscal year was $10,000.
Flow Down
These requirements flow down to all to all contractor and subcontractor tiers.
Model Clause/Language
No specific clause is mandated, but FTA has developed the following language.
Recovered Materials - The contractor agrees to comply with all the requirements of
Section 6002 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended (42
U.S.C. 6962), including but not limited to the regulatory provisions of 40 CFR Part 247,
and Executive Order 12873, as they apply to the procurement of the items designated in
Subpart B of 40 CFR Part 247.
ADA ACCESS
Accessibility. Facilities to be used in public transportation service must comply with 42
U.S.C. Sections 12101 et seq. and DOT regulations, “Transportation Services for
Individuals with Disabilities (ADA),” 49 CFR Part 37; and Joint ATBCB/DOT regulations,
“Americans with Disabilities (ADA) Accessibility Specifications for Transportation
Vehicles,” 36 CFR Part 1192 and 49 CFR Part 38. Notably, DOT incorporated by

reference the ATBCB’s “Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines”
(ADAAG), revised July 2004, which include accessibility guidelines for buildings and
facilities, and are incorporated into Appendix A to 49 CFR Part 37. DOT also added
specific provisions to Appendix A modifying the ADAAG, with the result that buildings and
facilities must comply with both the ADAAG and amendments thereto in Appendix A to 49
CFR Part 37.

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 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
(a) (1) (ii)).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 "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, 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
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.
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 be:
DocuSign Envelope ID: 38838FED-578C-438B-A43E-BF82565FA25C
Service Agreement – Work Order Type
8567 Cabling Installation Services Page 48 of 62
* 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 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:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20210
2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) 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 7). 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.
3.) 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
4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
