B. In accordance with Labor Code § 1773.2, copies of the prevailing rate of per diem
wages are available upon request from CITY's Engineering Division or the

subcontractor.
D. Labor Code § 1777.5 requires CONTRACTOR or subcontractor employing
tradesmen in any apprenticeship occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship
committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the
apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The certificate
must also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the
performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases

committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 days before the
request for certificate, or
ii. When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of
one to five, or
iii. When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its
membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis state -wide
or locally, or
iv. When CONTRACTOR provides evidence that CONTRACTOR employs
registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of not
less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.
V. CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for
the administration of apprenticeship programs if CONTRACTOR employs
registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such
contracts and if other contractors on the public works site are making such
contributions.
vi. CONTRACTOR and any subcontractor must comply with Labor Code §§
1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.

CONTRACTOR must provide copies of the records at its cost.
5. FAMILIARITY WITH WORK.

has
i. Thoroughly investigated and considered the scope of services to be
performed;
ii. Carefully considered how the services should be performed; and
iii. Understands the facilities, difficulties, and restrictions attending
performance of the services under this Agreement.
B. If services involve work upon any site, CONTRACTOR warrants that
CONTRACTOR has or will investigate the site and is or will be fully acquainted
with the conditions there existing, before commencing the services hereunder.
Should CONTRACTOR discover any latent or unknown conditions that may
materially affect the performance of the services, CONTRACTOR will
immediately inform CITY of such fact and will not proceed except at
CONTRACTOR's own risk until written instructions are received from CITY.
6. INSURANCE.
A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this
Agreement is effective, CONTRACTOR will procure and maintain the following
types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits
set forth below:
Type of Insurance
Commercial general liability:
Business automobile liability
Workers compensation
Limits (combined since
$1,000,000
$1,000,000
Statutory requirement.
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of
ISO -CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth
Page 3 of 8
3952.,1 4
above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal
injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be
endorsed to name City, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under
said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary"
such that any other insurance that may be carried by City will be excess thereto.
Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will
not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to City.
C. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA
00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).
D. CONTRACTOR will furnish to City duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance

endorsements as required herein, and such other evidence of insurance or copies
of policies as may be reasonably required by City from time to time. Insurance
must be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating
equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VH." Certificate(s) must reflect that the
insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage.
CONTRACTOR will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any
exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of
cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word "endeavor" with regard
to any notice provisions.
E. Should CONTRACTOR, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance
required by this Agreement, City may obtain such coverage at CONTRACTOR's
expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to
CONTRACTOR under this Agreement or terminate.
7. TIME FOR PERFORMANCE. CONTRACTOR will not perform any work under this
Agreement until:
A. CONTRACTOR furnishes proof of insurance as required under Section 6 of this
Agreement; and
B. CITY gives CONTRACTOR a written Notice to Proceed.
C. Should CONTRACTOR begin work in advance of receiving written authorization
to proceed, any such professional services are at CONTRACTOR's own risk.
8. TERMINATION.
A. Except as otherwise provided, CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time
with or without cause. Notice of termination will be in writing.
B. CONTRACTOR may terminate this Agreement upon providing written notice to
Page 4 of 8
39 5 2
CITY at least thirty (30) days before the effective termination date.
C. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure
on its own terms services similar to those terminated.
D. By executing this document, CONTRACTOR waives any and all claims for
damages that might otherwise arise from CITY's termination under this Section.
INDEMNIFICATION.
A. CONTRACTOR indemnifies and holds CITY harmless from and against any
claim, action, damages, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's
fees and penalties), injuries, or liability, arising out of this Agreement, or its
performance including, without limitation, damages or penalties arising from
CONTRACTOR's removal, remediation, response or other plan concerning any
Hazardous Waste resulting in the release of any hazardous substance into the
environment. Should CITY be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought
against it by suit or otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out
of this Agreement, or its performance, CONTRACTOR will defend CITY (at
CITY's request and with counsel satisfactory to CITY) and will indemnify CITY
for any judgment rendered against it or any sums paid out in settlement or
otherwise.
B. For purposes of this section "CITY" includes CITY's officers, officials,
employees, agents, representatives, and volunteers.
C. CONTRACTOR expressly agrees that this release, waiver, and indemnity
agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of
the State of California and that if any portion is held invalid, it is agreed that the
balance will, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.
D. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions will survive
termination of this Agreement.
E. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be
maintained by CONTRACTOR as required by this Agreement, and any approval
of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or
qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONTRACTOR
pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions
concerning indemnification.
9. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that
CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the
manner in which is it performed. CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to
be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an
agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance,
Page 5 of 8

bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that
may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work

direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.
