13. In general, the prevailing wage scale, as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California, in
force on the day this bid was announced or determined by the administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S.
Department of Labor, in force on the day bids are opened, which ever is higher, will be the minimum paid to all
craftsmen and laborers working on this project. In some cases, prevailing wage determinations have either a single
asterisk (*) or double asterisks (**) after the expiration date in effect on the date of advertisement for bids.
In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the expiration date which are in effect
on the date of advertisement for bids, such determinations remain in effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage
determinations which have double asterisks (**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate,
overtime, and holiday pay rates, and employer payments to be paid for work performed after this date have been
predetermined. If work is extended past this date, the new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in contracts the
Contractor enters into.
Pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing wage rates in the county, or counties, in which the
work is to be done have been determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations. The
wages as set forth in the General Prevailing Wage Rates for this project will be posted at the job site. It is understood
that it is the responsibility of the bidder to determine the correct scale. The City will keep a copy of the wage scale in
the City Clerk's office for the convenience of bidders. The State Prevailing Wage Rates may also be obtained from the
California Department of Industrial Relations Internet web site at http://www.dir.ca.gov. Any errors or defects in the
materials in the City Clerk's office will not excuse a bidder's failure to comply with the actual scale then in force. The
Federal minimum wage rates for this project as predetermined by the United Sates Secretary of Labor are set forth in
Appendix IV.
Addenda to modify the Federal minimum wage rates, if necessary, will be issued to holders of"Proposal and Contract"
books. Future effective general prevailing wage rates which have been predetermined and are on file with the
California Department of Industrial Relations are referenced but not printed in the general prevailing wage rates.
Attention is directed to the Federal minimum wage rate requirements in the books entitled "Proposal and Contract." If
there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general
prevailing wage rates determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations for similar
classifications of labor, the Contractor and Subcontractor shall not pay less than the higher wage rate. The Department
will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This
includes "helper" (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the
Federal wage determinations. Where Federal wage determinations do no contain the State wage rate determination
otherwise available to use by the Contractor and subcontractors, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less
than the Federal minimum wage rate which most closely approximates the duties of the employees in question.
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) provides a toll -free "hotline" service to report bid rigging activities.
Bid rigging activities can be reported Mondays through Fridays, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., eastern time,
Telephone No. 1-800-424-9071. Anyone with knowledge of possible bid rigging, bidder collusion, or other fraudulent
activities should use the "hotline" to report these activities. The "hotline" is part of the DOT's continuing effort to
identify and investigate highway construction contract fraud and abuse and is operated under the direction of the DOT
Inspector General. All information will be treated confidentially and caller anonymity will be respected.
14. Said sealed proposals shall be delivered to the City Clerk, City Hall, 330 West 20th Avenue, San Mateo, California
94403, at or before 2:00 p.m., September 17, 2002, and they shall be opened and read by a City Representative at said
date and time at a public meeting called by him.
15. Said City Representative shall report the results of the bidding to the City Council at a later date, at which time the City
Council may award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder as so reported; or as the City's interest may dictate,
City Council may exercise its right to modify the award or to reject any or all bids.

California Department of Transportation Standard Specifications and State Standard Plans dated July 1992.
The work for which this proposal is submitted is for construction in conformance with the special provisions (including the
• payment of not less than the State general prevailing wage rates or Federal minimum wage rates, whichever is higher, the project
plans described below, including the addenda thereto, the contract annexed hereto, and also in conformance with the California

is Surcharge and Equipment Rental rates in effect on the date the work is accomplished.
This proposal is also subject to the terms and conditions of the attached LIST OF SUBCONTRACTORS and BIDDER'S

Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the total of all items.
The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a
total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis
items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated
quantity for the item.
In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except
as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount as
the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall
be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price;
(b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor often, one
hundred, etc., or one -tenth, or one -hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the
entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentagewise the unit price or item total in the
City of San Mateo's Final Estimate of cost.
If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed
irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be
deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided.
Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit
price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the
number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit
price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on
lump sum items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the
item total, the items total shall prevail.
The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every
omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for
will be determined in the discretion of the City of San Mateo, and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed
by the City of San Mateo to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The
decision of the City of San Mateo respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid,
shall be final.
If this proposal shall be accepted and the undersigned shall fail to enter into the contract and furnish the 2 bonds in the
sums required by the State Contract Act, with surety satisfactory to the City Of San Mateo, within 8 days, not including
Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after the bidder has received notice from the City of San Mateo that the contract has
been awarded, the City of San Mateo may, at its option, determine that the bidder has abandoned the contract, and
thereupon this proposal and the acceptance thereof shall be null and void and the forfeiture of the security accompanying
this proposal shall operate and the same shall be the property of the City of San Mateo.
By my signature on this proposal, as bidder, declares that the only persons or parties interested in this proposal as principals
are those named herein; that this proposal is made without collusion with any other person, firm, or corporation; that he has
carefully examined the location of the proposed work, the annexed proposed form of contract, and the plans therein referred
to; and he proposes, and agrees if this proposal is accepted, that he will contract with the City of San Mateo, in the form of
the copy of the contract annexed hereto, to provide all necessary machinery, tools, apparatus and other means of
construction, and to do all the work and furnish all the materials specified in the contract, in the manner and time therein
prescribed, and according to the requirements of the Engineer as therein set forth, and that he will take in full payment
therefor the following prices, as shown on the schedule of bid items.

Relations of the State of California or as determined by the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of
Labor, in force on the day this bid was opened, whichever is higher, will be the minimum paid to all craftsmen and laborers
working on this project. In some cases, prevailing wage determinations have either a single asterisk (*) or double asterisks (**)
after the expiration date.
In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the expiration date which are in effect on the
date of advertisement for bids, such determinations remain in effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage determinations
which have double asterisks (**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay
rates, and employer payments to be paid for work performed after this date have been predetermined. If work is extended past
this date; the new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in contracts the Contractor enters into.
Any contractor awarded a public works project who intends to use a craft or classification not shown on the general prevailing
wage determinations will be required to pay the wage rate of that craft or classification most closely related to it as shown in the
general determinations effective at the time the bids are opened. Attention is directed to Section 14, Federal Requirements for
Federal -Aid Construction Project.
A copy of the correct determination will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the responsibility of the bidder to
determine the correct scale. The City will keep a copy of the wage scale in the City Clerk's office for the convenience of
bidders. Any errors or defects in the materials in the City Clerk's office will not excuse a bidder's failure to comply with the
actual scale then in force. The Federal minimum wage rates for this project as predetermined by the United States Secretary of
Labor are set forth in Appendix IV. The undersigned understands that weekly certified payrolls must be submitted for
verification.

participating agency which certifies in conformance with Title 49, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 26, as of the date of bid opening. It is the Contractor's responsibility to
verify that DBEs are certified. Listings of certified DBEs are available from the following
sources:
1. The Department's DBE Director, which is published quarterly. This Directory may be
obtained from the Department of Transportation, Material Operations Branch,
Publication Distribution Unit, 1900 Royal Oaks Drive, Sacramento, California 95815,
Telephone: (916) 445-3520;
2. The Department's Electronic Information Bulletin Board Service, which is accessible by
modem and is updated weekly. The bulletin Board may be accessed by first contacting
the Department's Business Enterprise Program at Telephone: (916) 227-8937 and
obtaining a user identification and password;
3. The Department's web site at http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/bep/index.htm;
G. Credit for trucking by DBE's will be as follows:
1. If the materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, 100 percent of the
cost of the materials or supplies will count toward the DBE goal. A DBE manufacturer is
a firm that operates or maintains a factory or establishment that produces, on the
premises, the materials, supplies, articles, or equipment required under the contract and of
the general character described by the specifications.
2. If the materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer, 60 percent of the
cost of the materials or supplies will count toward the DBE goal. A DBE regular dealer
is a firm that owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other establishment in
which the materials, supplies, articles or equipment of the general character described by
the specifications and required under the contract are bought, kept in stock, and regularly
sold or leased to the public in the usual course of business. To be a DBE regular dealer,
the fum must be an established, regular business that engages, as its principal business
and under its own name, in the purchase and sale or lease of the products in question. A
person may be a DBE regular dealer in such bulk items as petroleum products, steel,
cement, gravel, stone, or asphalt without owning, operating, or maintaining a place of
business as provided in this paragraph G.2. if the person both owns and operates
distribution equipment for products. Any supplementing of regular dealers' own
distribution equipment shall be by a long-term lease agreement and not on an ad hoc or
contract -by -contract basis. Packagers, brokers, manufacturers' representatives, or other
persons who arrange or expedite transactions are not DBE regular dealers within the
meaning of the paragraph G.2.
3. Credit for materials or supplies purchased from a DBE which is neither a manufacturer
nor a regular dealer will be limited to the entire amount of fees or commissions charged
for assistance in the procurement of the materials and supplies, or fees or transportation
charges for the delivery of materials or supplies required on a job site, provided the fees
are reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees charged for similar services.
H. Credit for DBE trucking companies will be as follows:
1. The DBE must be responsible for the management and supervision of the entire trucking
operation for which it is responsible on a particular contract, and there cannot be a
contrived arrangement for the purpose of meeting the DBE goal;
2. The DBE must itself own and operate at least one fully licensed, insured, and operational
truck used on the contract,
3. The DBE receives credit for the total value of the transportation services it provides on

the contract using trucks its own, insures, and operates using drivers it employs;
4. The DBE may lease trucks from another DBE fret, including an owner -operator who is
certified as a DBE. The DBE who leases trucks from another DBE receives credit for the
total value of the transportation services the lessee DBE provides on the contract;
5. The DBE may also lease trucks from a non -DBE firm, including an owner -operator. The
DBE who leases trucks from a non -DBE is entitled to credit only for the fee of
commission it receives as a result of the lease arrangement. The DBE does not receive
credit for the total value of the transportation services provided by the lessee, since these
services are not provided by a DBE;
6. For the purposes of this paragraph H, a lease must indicate that the DBE has exclusive
use of and control over the truck. This does not preclude the leased truck from working
for others during the term of the lease with the consent of the DBE, so long as the lease
gives the DBE absolute priority for use of the leased truck. Leased trucks must display
the name and identification number of the DBE.
I. Noncompliance by the Contractor with the requirements of the regulations constitutes a
breach of this contract and may result in termination of the contract or other appropriate
remedy for breach of this contract.
J.
Bidders are encouraged to use services offered by financial institutions owned and controlled
by DBEs.

SECTION 3. SUBMISSION OF DBE INFORMATION AND AWARD AND
EXECUTION OF CONTRACT
3-1.01 GENERAL. The bidder's attention is directed to the provisions in Section 3, "Award and
Execution of Contract," of the Standard Specifications and these special provisions for the
requirements and conditions concerning submittal of DBE information and award and execution
of contract. It is the bidder's responsibility to make enough work available to DBEs and to select
those portions of the work or material needs consistent with the available DBEs to meet the goal
for DBE participation or to provide information to establish that, prior to bidding, the bidder
made adequate good faith efforts to do so. The required DBE information shall be submitted on
the "LOCAL AGENCY BIDDER — DBE INFORMATION" form included in the Proposal. If
the DBE information is not submitted with the bid, the DBE information form shall be removed
from the documents prior to submitting the bid.
3-1.01A DBE INFORMATION. If DBE information is not submitted with the bid, the apparent
successful bidder (low bidder), the second low bidder and the third low bidder shall submit DBE
information to the City Clerk's Office located at City Hall, 330 W. 20th Avenue, San Mateo, CA,
94403 so the information is received by the City, no later than 4:00 p.m. on the fourth day, not
including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, following bid opening. DBE information sent
by U.S. Postal Service certified mail with return receipt and certificate of mailing and mailed on
or before the third day, not including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, following bid
opening will be accepted even if it is received after the fourth day following bid opening. Failure
to submit the required DBE information by the time specified will be grounds for finding the bid
or proposal nonresponsive. Other bidders need not submit DBE information unless requested to
do so by the Department. When such request is made, the DBE information of such bidders shall
be submitted so the information is received by the City/County no later than close of business on
the third day, not including Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays, after said notification, unless
a later time is authorized by the City.
The bidder's DBE information shall establish that the DBE goal will be met or that a good faith
effort to meet the goal has been made. To establish good faith efforts, the bidder shall
demonstrate that the goal will be met or that, prior to bidding, adequate good faith efforts to meet
the goal were made.
Bidders are cautioned that even though their submittal indicates they will meet the stated DBE
goal, their submittal should also include their adequate good faith efforts information along with
their DBE goal information to protect their eligibility for award of the contract in the event the
City, in its review, finds that the goal has not been met.
The information to show that the DBE goal will be met shall include the names of DBEs and
DBE joint venture partners to be used, with a complete description of work or supplies to be
provided by each, the dollar value of each DBE transaction, and a written confirmation that the
DBE is participating in the contract. When 100 percent of a contract item of work is not to be
performed or furnished by a DBE, a description of the exact portion of that work to be performed
or furnished by the DBE shall be included in the DBE information, including the planned location
of that work. The work that a DBE prime contractor has committed to performing with its own
forces as well as the work that it has committed to be performed by DBE subcontractors,
suppliers and trucking companies will count toward the goal. (Note: DBE subcontractors to
whom the bidder proposes to directly subcontract portions of the work are to be named in the bid.
— See Section 2-1.054, "Required Listing of Proposed Subcontractors," of the Standard
Specifications and Section 2-1.01, "General," of these special provisions, regarding listing of
proposed subcontractors.)
The information necessary to establish the bidder's good faith efforts to meet the DBE goal

each occurrence. Such insurance shall include coverage for owned, hired, and
non -owned automobiles.
C. Workers Compensation in at least the minimum statutory limits.
D. General Provisions for all insurance. (Based on the type of project, determine if
additional insurance language is required.) All insurance shall:
Include the City of San Mateo, its elected and appointed officers, employees, and
volunteers as additional insureds with respect to this Agreement and the
performance of services in this Agreement. The coverage shall contain no
special limitations on the scope of its protection to the above -designated insureds.
2. Be primary with respect to any insurance or self-insurance programs of City, its
officers, employees, and volunteers.
3. Be evidenced, prior to commencement of services, by properly executed policy
endorsements in addition to a certificate of insurance.
a. In addition to requiring that you provide an insurance certificate showing
the levels and types of coverage required for your project or contract, the
City of San Mateo also requires you to provide the City with a copy of
the actual endorsements to the commercial general, automobile, and any
excess liability insurance policies that show that the City of San Mateo,
its boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees have been
named as additional insureds by the insurers.
These endorsements are required because California Insurance Code §
384 expressly provides that an insurance certificate is not proof of what
the underlying insurance policy actually contains. If you look at an
insurance certificate, you will notice that the certificate actually says the
same thing. Therefore, a certificate has minimal legal value and the City
cannot be reasonably certain that it is covered under the policies shown
Q:\pw\PWENGIA_CONTRS\20021TLC Contract\Section2 Revised.doc 43
822/02
on the certificate without endorsements.
An endorsement is a piece of paper that modifies the terms of the
underlying policy and is issued by the insurance company itself, rather
than a broker.

SECTION 5. GENERAL
5-1.01 MISCELLANEOUS. The control of work will be in accordance with the applicable
portions of the State of California Department of Transportation Standard Specification Section 5.
The control of the materials will be in accordance with the applicable sections of Section 6 of the
Standard Specifications. The removal of existing facilities will be done in accordance with the
applicable sections of Section 15 of the Standard Specifications.
5-1.02 PREVAILING WAGE AND WEEKLY CERTIFIED PAYROLL SUBMISSION.
Attention is directed to Section 7-1.01A(2), "Prevailing Wage", of the Standard Specifications.
The general prevailing wage rates as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations of the
State of California or as determined by the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S.
Department of Labor, in force on the day this bid was opened, whichever is higher, will be the
minimum paid to all craftsmen and laborers working on this project. In some cases, prevailing
wage determinations have either a single asterisk (*) or double asterisks (**) after the expiration
date.
In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the expiration
date which are in effect on the date of advertisement for bids, such determinations remain in
effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage determinations which have double asterisks (**)
after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay rates,
and employer payments to be paid for work performed after this date have been predetermined.
If work is extended past this date, the new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in
contracts the Contractor enters into.
Any contractor awarded a public works project who intends to use a craft or classification not
shown on the general prevailing wage determinations will be required to pay the wage rate of that
craft or classification most closely related to it as shown in the general determinations effective at
the time the bids are opened.
A copy of the correct determination will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the
responsibility of the bidder to determine the correct scale. The City will keep a copy of the wage
scale in the City Clerk's office for the convenience of bidders. The State prevailing Wage rates
may also be obtained from the California Department of Industrial Relations Internet web site at
http://www.dir.ca.gov. Any errors or defects in the materials in the City Clerk's office will not
excuse a bidder's failure to comply with the actual scale then in force. The Federal minimum
wage rates for this project as predetermined by the United States Secretary of Labor are set forth
in Appendix IV.
Addenda to modify the Federal minimum wage rates, if necessary, will be issued to holders of
"Proposal and Contract" books. Future effective general prevailing wage rates which have been
predetermined and are on file with the California Department of Industrial Relations are
referenced but not printed in the general prevailing wage rates.
Attention is directed to the Federal minimum wage rate requirements. If there is a difference
between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general
prevailing wage rates determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial
Relations for similar classifications of labor, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less
than the higher wage rate. The Department will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically
included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This includes "helper" (or other
classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the
Federal wage determination. Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage
rate determination otherwise available for use by the Contractor and subcontractors, the
Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the Federal minimum wage rate which most
closely approximates the duties of the employees in question.

designated claim investigator or auditor shall have access to those records and any other records
as may be required by the Engineer to determine the facts or contentions involved in the claims.

5-1.17 SUBCONTRACTING. Attention is directed to the provisions in Section 8-1.01,
"Subcontracting", of the Standard Specifications, Section 2, "Proposal Requirements and
Conditions and Non -Discrimination Guidelines", Section 3, "Submission of DBE Information
and Award and Execution of Contract", and elsewhere in these Special Provisions.
Pursuant to the provisions in Section 1777.1 of the Labor Code, the Labor Commissioner

public works project. This list of debarred contractors is available from the Department of
Industrial Relations web site at http://www.dir.ca.govldir/Labor law/DLSE/Debar.html.
The requirement in the third paragraph of said Section 84.01 that the Contractor shall perform
with his own organization contract work amounting to not less than 50 percent of the original
contract price is not changed by the Federal Aid requirement specified under "Required Contract
Provisions Federal -Aid Construction Contracts" in Section 14 in these Special Provisions that the
Contractor perform not less than 30 percent of the original contract work with his own
organization.
Each subcontract and any lower tier subcontract that may in turn by made shall include the
"Required Contract Provisions Federal -Aid Construction Contract" in Section 14 of these special
provisions. This requirement shall be enforced as follows:
Non-compliance shall be corrected. Payment for subcontracted work involved will be
withheld from progress payments due, or to become due, until correction is made.
Failure to comply may result in termination of the contract.
The DBE information furnished under Section 3-1.01A, "DBE Information," of these Special
Provisions is in addition to the subcontractor information required to be furnished under said
Section 8-1.01, "Subcontracting" and Section 2-1.054, "Required Listing of Proposed
Subcontractors," of the Standard Specifications.
In conformance with the Federal DBE regulations Sections 26.53 (t(1) and 26.53(0(2) Part 26,
Title 49 CFR:
A. The Contractor shall not terminate for convenience a DBE subcontractor listed in
response to Section 3-1.01A, "DBE Information," and then perform that work with its
own forces, or those of an affiliate without the written consent of the Department, and
B. If a DBE subcontractor is terminated or fails to complete its work for any reason, the
Contractor will be required to make good faith efforts to substitute another DBE
subcontractor for the original DBE subcontractor, to the extent needed to meet the
contract goal.
The requirement in Section 2-2.01, "Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE)", of these Special
Provisions that DBE's must be certified on the date bids are opened does not apply to DBE
substitution after award of the contract.

PART 3 — EXECUTION
3.1 PLANT ESTABLISHMENT AND MAINTENANCE PERIOD
A. The CONTRACTOR shall provide maintenance of all landscaping areas and irrigation systems for a
period not less than 120 calendar days. Said period will begin upon notification from the ENGINEER
that the plant establishment and maintenance period has formally commenced.
B. In order for the plant establishment and maintenance period to commence, the ENGINEER must be
satisfied that all landscape and irrigation work has been performed in accordance with these
Specifications, with the Drawings, and with the project plans. The ENGINEER will confirm
compliance during a walk-through arranged by the CONTRACTOR at the completion of the
installation. All deficiencies noted by the ENGINEER during the walk-through must be corrected
before the plant establishment period can commence.
C. After the plant establishment period begins, the CONTRACTOR shall perform all maintenance work
described in this section or required by the ENGINEER. If the CONTRACTOR fails to perform the
maintenance work to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER, the plant establishment and maintenance period
may be suspended by the ENGINEER until strict compliance is demonstrated.
D. Approximately 30 calendar days before the plant establishment and maintenance period is scheduled to
end, the CONTRACTOR shall request a courtesy walk-through with the ENGINEER. The ENGINEER
will again review the health of the plant materials, the operation of the irrigation system, and the
condition of the site. During this walk-through, the CONTRACTOR shall prepare written notes of any
deficiencies discovered by the ENGINEER A copy of these notes shall be provided to the ENGINEER
upon request. The CONTRACTOR shall then promptly correct all noted deficiencies.
E. On or about the date when the plant establishment and maintenance period is scheduled to end, the
CONTRACTOR shall request a fmal walk-through with the ENGINEER. All deficiencies noted during
the courtesy walk-through must be resolved to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER before the final walk-
through will be scheduled. If, during the final walk-through, new deficiencies are discovered, the
ENGINEER will prepare a fmal Punch List. Said list will then be forwarded to the CONTRACTOR,
and will serve as the final list of deficiencies which must be resolved prior to acceptance.
F. Since ornamental landscapes require an intensive program of regular maintenance, the
CONTRACTOR'S failure to promptly correct one deficiency may result in other more significant and
costly deficiencies (e.g. failure to repair a broken irrigation head may result in the loss of plant material).
As such, the CONTRACTOR will remain responsible for the condition of the entire landscaped area
until final acceptance is granted by the ENGINEER The ENGINEER reserves the right to amend the
Punch List and to extend the plant establishment and maintenance period if the CONTRACTOR fails to
promptly correct noted deficiencies.
G. Upon written acceptance of the landscaped area for permanent maintenance by the CITY, the
CONTRACTOR shall notify all utility companies supplying services to the site that the maintenance
obligation has been assumed by the City of San Mateo as stated in UTILITY SERVICES in PART 2 -

SECTION 13. RAILROAD RELATIONS AND INSURANCE
13.01 GENERAL
This work shall consist of all work and materials necessary to coordinate with the railroad for the duration of
the project as shown on the plans, as specified in these special provisions and as directed by the Engineer.
A Right of Entry Permit Agreement from the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (PCJPB), will be required for
construction within the railroad right-of-way. Contractor shall execute a Right of Entry Permit Agreement (Agreement)
with the PCJPB and shall abide by the requirements therein. A sample of the Agreement is attached hereto for reference.
As used in the Right of Entry Permit Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms used in the Agreement
shall have the following meanings:
Permittor.—The term "Permittor" as used in the Right of Entry Permit Agreement includes, in addition to the
Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (PCJPB). the City and County of San Francisco, the County of San Mateo, the
County of Santa Clara Transit District, the San Mateo County Transit District, the Union Pacific Railroad Company
and the National Railroad Passenger Corporation, the City of South San Francisco, the State of California, and the
assigns of any of them.
Permittee.—The term "Permittee" as used in the Right of Entry Permit Agreement means the Contractor and his
Subcontractor(s), their agents, employees and invitees.
In addition to Article 9, "Indemnity," and Article 10, "Insurance;" of the Right of Entry Permit Agreement, the following
parties shall be added as Indemnitees and named as additional insureds:
Property. The term "Property" used in this section shall refer to the property owned by PCJPB, Caltrain.
Work in and adjacent to PCJPB's right-of-way shall require close cooperation with and approval by PCJPB. No work
shall commence within PCJPB's Operating Envelope until the Agreement has been executed between PCJPB and the
Contractor, proper insurance certificates are provided and approved, and a PCJPB approved Site Specific Work Plan
(SSWP) is received by the Contractor. All work within and adjacent to the Operating Envelope shall be performed in
accordance with PCJPB's Standards, Volume I, Section 3, "Operating System Interface", which is attached as Exhibit C to
the Right of Entry Agreement for reference.
In addition to complying with requirements of PCJPB's Operating System Interface, additional restrictions may be
imposed on the Contractor's work in and adjacent to PCJPB right-of-way. There will be several PCJPB construction
projects occurring simultaneously along PCJPB's railroad corridor between the Counties of San Mateo, San Francisco,
and Santa Clara therefore PCJPB may need to further restrict Contractor's operations. These additional restrictions shall
be based on ongoing review of actual progress on various projects. Actual working hours available will be provided to the
Contractor during construction. Except for an extension of time which may be granted as determined in pursuant to the
provisions in Section 8-1.07, "Liquidated Damages," of the Standard Specifications, the Contractor shall have no claim for
damage or compensation for any delay or hindrance as a result of additional restrictions imposed by PCJPB to the
Contractor's construction operations within or adjacent to the railroad right of way.
Full compensation for obtaining the PCJPB Right of Entry Agreement, including payment of approximate $900.00 fee
and the cost of premiums for obtaining PCJPB required insurance and bonding; coordination with PCJPB as required by
Agreement; and all necessary tools, equipment, labor, materials and incidentals required by compliance with this section
of the special provisions shall be borne by the Contractor at its own expense and shall be considered as included in the
various items of work to be performed on or over the PCJPB right-of-way and no separate payment or additional
compensation will be allowed therefore.
Contractor shall comply with the latest revision of the PCJPB's Standards Volume I "A Manual for Track Specifications
and Design Guidelines for Grade Separations and Any Other Encroachments" and Volume II "A Manual for Right of Way
Standards for Longitudinal and Transverse Utility Encroachments" for all work on or adjacent to PCJPB property. If there
is a conflict between PCJPB Standards and any other specifications the PCJPB Standards will prevail for work performed

on or over the PCJPB right-of-way. By reference PCJPB Standards Volume I and II are incorporated into these Special
Provisions. The PCJPB Standards are available at SamTrans, 1250 San Carlos Ave, San Carlos, CA 94070, at
Contractor 's expense, for approximately $20.
Excavation shoring and falsework plans shall be prepared in conformance with PCJPB Standards Volume I and. Shoring
tie backs will not be permitted to be installed under operating tracks. All excavation shoring plans, falsework plans and
their structural calculations shall be prepared and stamped by a California Professional Engineer licensed in Civil
Engineering with a minimum of 5 years of experience specializing in the design of shoring subjected to railroad loading or
falsework constructed adjacent to live railroad traffic, or shall be a registered California Professional Engineer licensed to
use the title "Structural Engineer".
No placement of temporary formwork, falsework or bracing shall be allowed within 14'horizontally of the nearest track
centerline. All falsework shall be in accordance with the State of California, Department of Transportation (Caltrans)
Falsework Manual and PCJPB Standards, current edition.
The Contractor shall submit a SSWP as required by the PCJPB prior to the beginning of any excavation work on the
PCJPB right of way. The SSWP shall be submitted to the Engineer and shall provide sufficient detail of the work plan (to
include limits of excavation) All Contractor submittals and communications required by the PCJPB, except those required
to execute the Agreement, shall be submitted directly to the City Engineer or his/her representative. The City Engineer or
his/her representative will then transmit the appropriate submittals to the PCJPB for coordination with the PCJPB for
submittal review, comment and approvals. The City Engineer or his/her representative will return all submittals to the
Contractor after PCJPB consideration. Submittals for items related to PCJPB work or which may impact PCJPB's
facilities (e.g. shoring adjacent to tracks, etc.) shall require an extended review cycle (minimum 45 days) to allow PCJPB
to review.
The Contractor shall comply with all requirements of the PCJPB while performing work on PCJPB right-of-way and in
addition shall comply with the following specific requirements as follows:
1. As required by the Operating Systems Interface, all Contractor employees are required to have successfully
completed within the last 12 months a PCJPB Roadway Worker Protection (RWP) training program before
entering onto PCJPB right-of-way. Employees completing the program will be given a sticker to be displayed on
their hardhats while working on or over the right-of-way. For arrangement of this training, Contractor shall
contact the following PCJPB representative: Mr. Chris Payne, (650) 508-7740.
2. The Contractor shall take protective measures necessary to keep PCJPB facilities, including track ballast, free of
sand or debris resulting from construction operations. Any damage to PCJPB facilities resulting from Contractor
's operations will be repaired or replaced by the PCJPB and the cost of such repairs or replacement shall be
deducted from the Contractor 's progress and final pay invoice amounts. This requirement modifies that found in
the Right of Entry Permit Agreement by allowing the City to directly deduct monies from Contractor invoiced
amounts.
3. The Contractor's submittal as required by the Right of Entry Permit Agreement to be executed between the PCJPB
and Contractor, Section 5, "Working Procedures", paragraph (a) shall not be considered as fulfilling the
requirements for preparation and submittal of required SSWP's and detailed plans and calculations for shoring and
falsework. The intent of this paragraph is to prepare and submit working drawings, which provide the PCJPB
with location and general details concerning construction activities and temporary construction facilities and
operations. After approval of these working drawings Contractor shall then prepare SSWP's as required by
PCJPB for approval prior to performing specific construction activities.
As part of the approval process for Site Specific Work Plans (SSWP), the Contractor must submit details and
staging plans and calculations to the PCJPB for any work which can impact the PCJPB's operations. For example
installation of shoring shall require staging plans as part of the SSWP, showing how each portion of the work is
sequenced and accomplished during Passenger Non -Revenue Hours approved by PCJPB. This type of work shall
only be performed when there are no trains operating.
4. The Contractor shall provide temporary fencing at the end of each working day where existing fencing is removed
in connection with the Contractor's operations. Temporary fencing shall conform to the requirements specified
Q:\pw\PWENG\A_CONTRS\2002\TLC Contract\Section4-13railrelations.doc 134 822102
elsewhere in these special provisions. Fencing shall remain in place until all work is complete and removal is
approved by the City Engineer or his/her representative. It is the intent of providing the temporary fence that
Contractor shall not cross the tracks to perform work on the other side of the tracks. The Contractor shall use
existing public crossings of the right-of-way for purposes of moving personnel, tools, materials and equipment to
the other side of the tracks and right-of-way.
5. The CONTRACTOR is directed to the latest Caltrain schedule titled "Caltrain Service" for exact hours of
operations for commuter train service. Train timetable is available at Samtrans, 1250 San Carlos Ave., Suite 355, San
Carlos, CA or most any Caltrain train station. It is anticipated during the duration of this contract that PCJPB may be
increasing the number of trains per day significantly as follows:
- Weekdays: from 68 trains per day to 78 trains per day
- Saturday: from 28 trains per day to 32 trains per day
- Sunday: from 10 trains per day to 20 trains per day
The timetable, however, does not include operations of UPRR freight train service and PCJPB work trains mainly during
night time (Passenger Non -Revenue) hours. PCJPB will coordinate and approve the Contractor 's work during periods of
freight train and PCJPB work trains operations through the SSWP process.
The Contractor's work to be done during Passenger Non -Revenue hours will have to be coordinated with freight train and
PCJPB work trains operations. All work to be done during Non -Revenue hours must allow for passage of freight trains
and PCJPB work trains unless special permission has been granted by PCJPB through the SSWP process. When freight
trains are scheduled to pass through the project area all construction must stop until the train has cleared the area and the
flagger permits construction to restart. (In City agreement with PCJPB.)
Within the terms of the Agreement are provisions for enforcement of liquidated damages against the Contractor should it
cause delay to PCJPB commuter train operations. These terms shall supersede those contained in the current PCJPB
Standard Volume 1, Section 3, Part 1.03, Item C. These Liquidated Damages are in addition to those that may be imposed
by the CITY. There is no limit to the amount of total liquidated damages that may be assessed against the Contractor.
Liquidated damages shall be deducted by the City from monies due to the Contractor.
Full compensation for furnishing all labor, materials, tools, equipment and materials for doing all work required for
coordinating with the railroad, meeting requirements, obtaining permits and paying fees shall be included in the contract
prices paid for various items of work that require railroad coordination and no additional compensation will be allowed
therefor.

or orders of whatever kind or nature and pay all costs of such compliance. Permittee shall immediately notify
Railroad when Permittee learns of, or has reason to believe that, a release of Hazardous Material has occurred
in, on or about the Property. The term "release" or "threatened release" when used with respect to Hazardous
Material shall include any actual or imminent spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying,
discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping, or disposing in, on, under or about the Property. Permittee
shall further comply with all laws requiring notice of such releases or threatened releases to governmental
agencies, and shall take all action necessary to mitigate the release or minimize the spread of contamination. In
the event that a Permittee or its Agents or Invitees cause a release of Hazardous Material, Permittee shall,
without cost to Railroad and in accordance with all laws and regulations, return the Property to the condition
immediately prior to the release. In connection therewith, Permittee shall afford Railroad a full opportunity to
participate in any discussion with governmental agencies regarding any settlement agreement, cleanup or
abatement agreement, consent decree or other compromise proceeding involving Hazardous Material.
Any Hazardous Materials introduced onto the Property by Permittee, its agents, employees,
contractors, subcontractors or invitees, shall remain the property of Permittee, its agents, employees,
contractors, subcontractors or invitees, which shall be responsible for disposing of these materials at no cost to
Railroad or any Indemnitee, and Permittee shall be obligated to defend, indemnify and hold Indemnitees
harmless from any and all Liability arising from it, regardless of whether such Liability arises during or after the
term of this Permit. This indemnity shall not extend to Liability arising from the presence of any Hazardous
Materials on the Property, unless (i) such Hazardous Materials were introduced onto the Property by Permittee,
its agents, employees, contractors, subcontractors or invitees, in which case this indemnity shall apply, or (ii)
Hazardous Materials are present on the Property, and Permittee's handling, excavation, relocation,
investigation, disposal or other exercise of control over the Property imposes on the Railroad new or additional
liability, which the Railroad would not otherwise have incurred in the absence of Permittee's activities or
project. (In such event, Permittee shall pay for and defend and indemnify Indemnitees from and against such
additional liability to the extent it exceeds that liability which the Railroad would have incurred in the absence
of Permittee's activities or project.)
Any Hazardous Materials not introduced onto the Property by Permittee, its agents, employees,
contractors, subcontractors or invitees shall remain the property of the Railroad (or other responsible third
parties) and shall not be deemed property of Permittee.
For purposes of this Agreement, "Hazardous Material" means material that, because of its
quantity, concentration or physical or chemical characteristics, is at any time now or hereafter deemed by any
federal, state or local governmental authority to pose a present or potential hazard to public health, welfare or
the environment. Hazardous Material includes, without limitation, any material or substance defined as a
"hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant" pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq.), the Resource

and Safety Code; a "hazardous waste" listed pursuant to Section 25140 of the California Health and Safety
Code; any asbestos and asbestos containing materials whether or not such materials are part of the Property or
are naturally occurring substances on the Property, and any petroleum, including, without limitation, crude oil
or any fraction thereof, natural gas or natural gas liquids. This indemnity shall survive termination of this
Agreement. It is the intention of the parties that should any term of this indemnity provision be found to be
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provision shall remain in full force and effect.
12. Compliance with Laws. Permittee shall comply, at Permittee's expense, with all applicable laws,
regulations, rules and orders with respect to the use of the property, regardless of when they become or became

environmental protection, hazardous materials, waste disposal and water and air quality, and furnish satisfactory
evidence of such compliance upon request of Railroad. Before beginning work on the Property, Permittee shall
also obtain, at Permittee's expense, any and all permits, licenses and approvals required for construction and
operation of the Work and shall provide Railroad with copies of such approvals. Under no circumstances shall
Permittee damage, harm or take any rare, threatened or endangered species on or about the Property.

Exhibit C-1
Working Procedures
Permittee shall at all times abide by Railroad's Operating Systems Interface, a copy of which is attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit C, as well as with the regulations of Railroad (including, but limited to. Railroad's Track
Specifications and Design Guidelines for Grade Separations and Any Other Encroachments, dated July, 1994,
as amended, and Railroad's Right of Way Standards for Longitudinal and Transverse Utility Encroachments,
dated July. 1994, as amended). Permittee's Work on the Property shall be subject to Railroad's approval.
Without limiting the foregoing, Permittee shall at all times comply with the regulations of Railroad and the
Operator and the instructions of either of their representatives relating to the proper manner of protecting the
tracks, pipelines, wire lines, signals and all other property at said location, the traffic moving on such tracks and
the removal of tools, equipment and materials. In addition, Permittee will adhere to the following specific
requirements:
(a) Repair and Maintenance. After installation, Permittee shall bear the entire cost of
maintaining and operating facilities installed by Permittee on the Property.
(b) Plans Approved Prior to Commencing Work. Permittee's work on the Property shall be
performed in accordance with plans and specifications approved in advance and in writing by Railroad as to
overall layout, clearances established by the California Public Utilities Commission (including, but not limited
to, PUC General Order 26-D), shoring, temporary supports, false work, railroad bridges and any other works on
Railroad's Right -of -Way and in such manner and at such times as shall not endanger or interfere with the safe
operation of the tracks and other railroad facilities on or adjacent to the Right -of -Way. Any waiver of these
standards must be in writing and must be issued by Railroad's Chief Engineer. Any revisions and amendments
to the approved plans and specifications pertaining to the Work on the Property must be approved in writing by
Railroad. The details of construction affecting the Railroad tracks and property not included in the contract
plans shall be submitted to the Railroad for approval before such work is undertaken. All plans and designs
related to track rearrangement shall be subject to the prior approval of Railroad. Permittee shall submit to
Railroad three (3) sets of working drawings showing details of construction affecting Railroad's tracks and the
Property, including those for false work over and/or adjacent to the tracks or shoring of excavations near tracks,
not included in the contract plans, and Permittee shall not begin such work until notified by Railroad that such
plans have been approved. Railroad's approval for these limited purposes shall not relieve Permittee from
liability arising out of performance of the Work or lead to an assumption of design or construction
responsibility on the part of Railroad or its Operator. Approval by Railroad shall not constitute a warranty by
Railroad that such plans conform to applicable federal, state, and/or local codes and regulations.
(c) Notice Prior to Commencing Work. Permittee shall cooperate with the Railroad and
Operator where work is over or under the tracks, or within the limits of the Property, in order to expedite the
work and to avoid interference with the operation of Railroad's equipment. Permittee shall notify the
Railroad's Chief Engineer at least ten (10) working days (or such additional notice as may be provided herein)
before commencing any work on the Property. Although Railroad will reasonably cooperate with Permittee so
that the Work may be handled in an efficient manner, Permittee hereby waives and releases Railroad from any
claim for damages against Railroad in the event the Work is delayed for any reason whatsoever.
(d) No Interference With Railroad Operations. Permittee shall perform its work in such manner
and at such times as shall not endanger or interfere with the safe operation of the tracks and property of Railroad
and traffic moving on such tracks, as well as wires, signals, pipelines, utilities and other property of Railroad, its
tenants or licensees, at or in the vicinity of the work. All work contemplated in this Agreement shall be

performed in a good and worker -like manner to the satisfaction of the parties, and each portion shall be
promptly commenced by the party obligated to do the same and thereafter diligently prosecuted to completion
in its logical order and sequence.
(e) Repair of Damage. Permittee shall take protective measures necessary to keep Railroad's
facilities, including track ballast, free of sand or debris resulting from its operations. Any damage to Railroad's
facilities resulting from Permittee's operations will be repaired or replaced by Railroad at Permittee's sole cost
and expense, which Permittee shall pay to Railroad promptly upon demand therefor.
(f) Underground Facilities. Permittee shall be solely responsible at its own cost for identifying
the location of all pipelines (including, but not limited to, high pressure petroleum, gas and water pipelines),
fiber optic lines and all other utilities of whatever nature on the Property, and for relocating all said pipelines
and utilities which would interfere with Permittee's Work. Permittee shall relocate, or arrange for the relocation
by a third -party contractor approved by Railroad, any and all Railroad signal lines and Railroad communication
facilities, the existing location of which would interfere with the Work, at Permittee's sole cost and expense,
unless other arrangements are made by separate agreement. Absence of markers does not constitute a warranty
by Railroad of the absence of subsurface installations. It shall be Permittee's responsibility to determine the
existence of any underground facilities and Permittee shall call Underground Service Alert at 1-800-642-2444
prior to beginning any work on the Property. Since there is the possibility of the existence of pipelines or other
structures beneath the Property, if Permittee should excavate or drill, then Permittee's forces shall explore such
structures with hand tools to a depth of at least eight feet (8') below the surface of the ground or, at Permittee's
option, use suitable detection equipment, prior to drilling or excavating with mechanized equipment.
(g) Storage. Permittee shall not pile or store any tools or other materials or park any equipment,
when not in use, closer to the center of nearest railroad track then permitted by the following permanent
clearances:
(i) 25'-0" horizontally from center line of track; and
(ii) 22'-6" vertically above top of rail.
The placement of piles, forms, braces, shoring, false work, or other construction supports shall be in
accordance with Appendix H of the most current Caltrans Trenching and Shoring manual.
Walkways with railings shall be constructed by Permittee over open excavation areas when in close
proximity of tracks, and railings shall not be closer than 8'-6" horizontally from centerline of the nearest track,
if tangent, or 9'-6" if curved. Any infringement on the above temporary construction clearances due to the
Permittee's operations shall be submitted to Railroad for approval, and shall not be undertaken until approved
by Railroad. When the temporary vertical clearance is less than 22'-6" above top of rail, Railroad shall have the
option of installing tell -tales or other protective devices Railroad deems necessary for protection of Railroad
trainmen or traffic. Permittee shall notify the Railroad in writing, at least twenty-five (25) calendar days, but no
more than forty (40) calendar days, in advance of the starting date of installing temporary work with less than
permanent clearances established above for approval as provided herein.
(h) Open Holes. Any open holes shall be satisfactorily covered at all times when Permittee's
forces are not physically working in the vicinity. Upon completion of work, all holes will be filled in to meet
the surrounding ground level with clean, compacted, earthen material and the property left in a neat and safe
condition reasonably satisfactory to Railroad.
(i) No Crossing of Tracks. Permittee shall not be permitted to cross Railroad's tracks located on
or adjacent to the Property without Railroad's prior written approval, which may be conditioned on such terms

as Railroad deems appropriate. Absent such approval, Permittee's access shall be by use only of designated
public streets or crossings.
(j) Payments and Liens. With respect to the Work, Permittee shall fully pay for all materials
joined or affixed to the Property, and shall pay in full all persons who perform labor on or deliver materials to
the Property. As Railroad is a public entity, its property is not subject to mechanics' or materialmen's liens, and
nothing in this Permit shall be construed to make its property subject to such liens. Nevertheless, if any stop
notice claims, mechanics' or materialmen's liens of any kind are filed, Permittee shall immediately remove
them at Permittee's own expense, and shall pay any judgment which may be entered. Should Permittee fail,
neglect, or refuse so to do, Railroad, after 48 hours prior notice to Permittee, shall have the right to pay any
amount required to release any such liens, or to defend any action brought, and to pay any judgment entered.
Permittee shall be liable to Railroad for all costs, damages, reasonable attorneys' fees, and any amounts
expended in defending any proceedings or in the payment of any of said liens or any judgment. Railroad may
post and maintain upon the Property notices of nonresponsibility as provided by law.
(k) Tests. Permittee shall cooperate with Railroad in making any tests Railroad requires of any
installation or condition that in Railroad's reasonable judgment may have an adverse effect on any of the
facilities of Railroad. All costs incurred by the tests, or any corrections, shall be borne by Permittee.
(1) Completion. Permittee shall notify Railroad the date said work is completed, and also the
date the Permittee's Work is accepted by the Permittee. Upon completion of the work to be done upon
Railroad's Property, Permittee shall promptly remove from the Property all tools, equipment and materials
placed thereon by Permittee or its agents. Permittee shall restore said property to the same state and condition
as when Permittee entered thereon and shall leave said Property in a clean and presentable condition.
(m)Compliance with Laws. Permittee shall comply, at Permittee's expense, with all applicable
laws, regulations, rules and orders with respect to the use of the Property, regardless of when they become or
became effective, including, without limitation, those relating to construction, grading, signage, health, safety,
noise, environmental protection, hazardous materials, waste disposal and water and air quality, and furnish
satisfactory evidence of such compliance to Railroad upon request.
(n) Condition of Pronerty. Permittee agrees to keep the Property and the Work in good and safe
condition, free from waste, so far as affected by Permittee's operations, to the reasonable satisfaction of
Railroad. If, during the term of this Agreement, Pennittee fails to keep the Property and the Work in good and
safe condition, free from debris, then Railroad may, at Railroad's option (1) perform the necessary work at the
expense of Permittee which expense Permittee agrees to pay to Railroad upon demand, and/or (2) immediately
terminate this Permit without limiting its remedies. Permittee shall not conduct any activities on or about the
Property that constitute a nuisance or unreasonable annoyance (including without limitation, emission of
objectionable odors, noises or lights) to Railroad, to the owners or occupants of neighboring property or to the
public.
(o) Proiect Markers. Project markers in a form and size satisfactory to Railroad, identifying the
facility and its owner, shall be installed and constantly maintained by and at the expense of Permittee at
Railroad's property lines or such locations as Railroad shall approve. Such markers shall be relocated or
removed upon request of Railroad without expense to Railroad. The absence of markers does not constitute a
warranty by Railroad that there are no subsurface installations.
(p) Engineering Review. Railroad (or its contractor) shall provide all engineering review,
marketing and scheduling, detouring, flagging and engineering inspection required in connection with said
Work, as determined by Railroad in its reasonable discretion, at Permittee's sole cost and expense.

(q) Reimbursement. Permittee agrees to reimburse Railroad for the actual cost and expense to
Railroad of furnishing any materials or performing any labor in connection with the Work, including, but not
limited to, the review of plans and specifications, the installation and removal of any falsework or other
protection beneath or along railroad tracks, and the furnishing of such security persons, flaggers and inspectors
as Railroad deems necessary. Flaggers and/or inspectors are required when work is performed in proximity to
the tracks and are furnished at the cost of approximately $800 per day for inspectors and $500 per day for
flaggers.
(r) Delay Damages. In the event that Permittee's acts or omissions cause delays to Railroad's
commuter train operations, the Railroad will sustain damages, and it is agreed by the parties that it is
impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the actual damages which Railroad will incur
in the event of and by reason of such delay. The charges cover such costs as: 1) Additional train crew labor
costs; 2) Additional Railroad inspector costs; 3) Costs of establishing any bus bridges; 4) Lost passenger
revenues; and 5) Customer rebate costs.

Railroad Administration regulations, including 49 CFR Part 214, pertaining to Railroad Workplace Safety, and
Railroad's On -Track Safety Program.
(u) Conflict with Operating Systems Interface. To the extent any of the foregoing specific
requirements of this exhibit conflict with provisions set forth in the Operating Systems Interface and Track
Specifications and Design Guidelines for Grade Separations, the provisions of Operating Systems Interface and
Track Specifications and Design Guidelines for Grade Separations shall control.
(v) Protection of Railroad Facilities. The presence of Railroad's representatives, conductors,
inspectors, flagmen or watchmen may be required when Permittee or any of Permittee's forces or contractors
are working on or near the Property and will be provided by Railroad to protect its facilities, property and

movements of its trains or engines. In general, Railroad will furnish such personnel or other protective devices:
(1)
When any part of any equipment is standing or being operated within 15 feet,
measured horizontally, from centerline of any track on which trains may operate, or when any
erection or construction activities are in progress within such limits, regardless of elevation
above or below track.
(2) For any excavation below elevation or track subgrade if, in the opinion of Railroad's
representative, track or other Railroad facilities may be subject to settlement or movement.
(3) For any clearing, grubbing, grading, or blasting which, in the opinion of Railroad's
representative, may endanger Railroad facilities or operations.
Permittee specifically agrees that the need for and staffing of Railroad personnel or those of its Operator
as provided in this Section shall be within Railroad's sole discretion, and the attendant costs shall be bone
entirely by the Permittee. The reasonable cost to Permittee of such inspector shall be payable to Licensor within
30 days after presentation of a bill.
Fiberoptics. In addition to other provisions of this Agreement requiring Permittee to give notice
prior to commencing work, Permittee shall telephone Underground Service Alert at 1-800-642-2444 (a 24 -hour
number) to determine if a telecommunications system is buried anywhere on or about the Property. If there is,
Permittee will telephone the owner of any system identified, arrange for a cable locator and make arrangements
for relocation or other protection for the system prior to beginning any work on the Property.
Site Specific Work Plan. Prior to commencing the Work, and each week during the core of
conducting the Work, Permittee shall have a Site Specific Work Plan approved by the Permittee. If such a plan
is not approved by Railroad, or not available on site, Permittee may cancel this Agreement.
Traffic. Permittee shall provide all barriers, directions, signage and other forms of notice to the
public to assure the smooth and uninterrupted flow of traffic around the Property.

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.
(2) The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyman -

determines that a different practice prevails for the
applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid
in accordance with that determination.
(4) 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 or subcontractor will no longer
be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the
applicable predetermined rate for the comparable work
performed by regular employees until an acceptable
program is approved.
b. Trainees:

associated with the corresponding journeyman -level
wage rate on the wage determination which provides for
less than full fringe benefits for apprentices, in which
case such trainees shall receive the same fringe benefits
as apprentices.

FEDERAL REQUIREMENT TRAINING SPECIAL PROVISIONS
FEDERAL REQUIREMENT TRAINING
SPECIAL PROVISION. -- As part of the
Contractor's equal employment opportunity affirmative action
program, training shall be provided as follows:
The Contractor shall provide on-the-job training to
develop full journeymen in the types of trades or job
classification involved.
The goal for the number of trainees or apprentices to
be trained under the requirements of this special provision
will be 2 trainees.
In the event the Contractor subcontracts a portion of
the contract work, he shall determine how many, if any, of
the trainees or apprentices are to be trained by the
subcontractor, provided however, that the Contractor shall
retain the primary responsibility for meeting the training
requirements imposed by this special provision. The
Contractor shall also insure that this Training Special
Provision is made applicable to such subcontract. Where
feasible, 25 percent of trainees or apprentices in each
occupation shall be in their first year of apprenticeship or
training.
The number of trainees or apprentices shall be
distributed among the work classifications on the basis of
the Contractor's needs and the availability of journeymen in
the various classifications within a reasonable area of
recruitment. Prior to commencing work, the Contractor
shall submit to the Department for approval the number of
trainees or apprentices to be trained in each selected
classification and training program to be. used.
Furthermore, the Contractor shall specify the starting time
for training in each of the classifications. The Contractor
will be credited for each trainee or apprentice employed by
him on the contract workwho is currently enrolled or
becomes enrolled in. -an approved program and will be
reimbursed for such trainees or apprentices as provided
hereinafter.
Training and upgrading of minorities and women
toward journeymen status is a primary objective of this
Training Special Provision. Accordingly, the Contractor
shall make every effort to enroll minority and women
trainees or apprentices (e.g., by conducting systematic and
direct recruitment through public and private sources likely
to yield minority and women trainees or apprentices) to the
extent such persons are available within a reasonable area
of recruitment. The Contractor will be responsible for
demonstrating the steps that he has taken in pursuance
thereof, prior to a determination as to whether the
Contractor is in compliance with this Training Special
Provision. This training commitment is not intended, and
shall not be used, to discriminate against any applicant for
training, whether a member of a minority group or not.
Q:\pw\PWENG\A CONTRS\20021TLC Contract\FedSectionl4. l.doc
F-]5
No employee shall be employed as a trainee or
apprentice in any classification in which he has
successfully completed a training course leading to
journeyman status or in which he has been employed as a
journeyman. The Contractor should satisfy this
requirement by including appropriate questions in the
employee application or by other suitable means.
Regardless of the method used the Contractor's records
should document the findings in each case.
The minimum length and type of training for each
classification will be as established in the training program
selected by the Contractor and approved by both the
Department and the Federal Highway Administration. The
Department and the Federal Highway Administration will
approve a program if it is reasonably calculated to meet the
equal employment opportunity obligations of the
Contractor and to qualify the average trainee or apprentice
for journeyman status in the classification concerned by the
end of the training period. Furthermore; apprenticeship
programs registered with the U.S. Department of Labor,
Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with the State of
California, Department of Industrial Relations, Division of
Apprenticeship Standards recognized by the Bureau and
training programs approved but not necessarily sponsored
by the U.S. Department of Labor, Manpower
Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training
shall also be considered acceptable provided it is being
administered in a manner consistent with the equal
employment obligations of Federal -aid highway
construction contracts. Approval or acceptance of a
training program shall be obtained from the State prior to
commencing work on the classification covered by the
program. It is the intention of these provisions that training
is to be provided in the construction crafts rather than clerk -
typists or secretarial -type positions. Training is permissible
in lower level management positions such as office
engineers, estimators, timekeepers, etc., where the training
is oriented toward construction applications. Training in
the laborer classification may be permitted provided that
significant and meaningful training is provided and
approved by the division office. Some
offsite training is permissible as long as the training is
an integral part of an approved training program and does
not comprise a significant part of the overall training.
Except as otherwise noted below, the Contractor will be
reimbursed 80 cents per hour of training given an employee
on this contract in accordance with an approved training
program. As approved by the Engineer, reimbursement
will be made for training of persons in excess of the
number specified herein.

This reimbursement will be made even though the
Contractor receives additional training program funds from
other sources, provided such other source does not
specifically prohibit the Contractor from receiving other
reimbursement. Reimbursement for offsite training indicated
above may only be made to the Contractor where he does one
or more of the following and the trainees or apprentices are
concurrently employed on a Federal -aid project; contributes
to the cost of the training, provides the instruction to the
trainee or apprentice or pays the trainee's or apprentice's
wages during the offsite training period.
No payment shall be made to the Contractor if either the
failure to provide the required training, or the failure to hire
the trainee or apprentice as a journeyman, is caused by the
Contractor and evidences a lack of good faith on the part
of the Contractor in meeting the requirements of this Training
Special Provision. It is normally expected that a trainee or
apprentice will begin his training on the project as soon as
feasible after start of work utilizing the skill involved and
remain on the project as long as training opportunities exist in
his work classification or until he has completed his training
program. It is not required that all trainees or apprentices be
on board for the entire length of the contract. A Contractor
will have fulfilled his responsibilities under this Training
Special Provision if he has provided acceptable training to the
number of trainees or apprentices specified. The number
trained shall be determined on the basis of the total number
enrolled on the contract for a significant period.
Only trainees or apprentices registered in a program
approved by the State of California's State Administrator of
Apprenticeship may be employed on the project and said
trainees or apprentices shall be paid the standard wage
specified under the regulations of the craft or trade at which
they are employed.
The Contractor shall furnish the trainee orapprenticea
copy of the program he will follow in providing the training.
The Contractor shall provide each trainee or apprentice with a
certification showing the type and length of training

WELDERS - Receive rate prescribed for'craft performing operation
to which welding is incidental.
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
(29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(ii)).
In the listing above, the "SU" designation means that rates
listed under that identifier do not reflect collectively
bargained wage and fringe benefit rates. Other designations
indicate unions whose rates have been determined to be
prevailing.
WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can
be:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a
position on a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate)
ruling
On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests
for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour.
Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted
because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the
Davis -Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial
contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 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, D. C. 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, D. C. 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.

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, D. C. 20210
4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final.
