INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
[MUST BE SUBMITTED WITH PROJECT PROPOSAL]
ON-CALL SEWER SYSTEMS REPAIR SERVICES
PROJECT NO.: PW 19-17
Company Name: Williams Pipeline Contractors, Inc.
To be awarded this contract, the successful bidder must procure and maintain the following types of
insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:
Tyne of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $2,000,000
Business automobile liability: $1,000,000
Workers compensation: Statutory requirement
Commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of ISO -CGL Form No. CG
00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above must be a combined single limit per
occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability
policies must be endorsed to name the 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 the City will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on
ISO Form No. CG 20 10 1185 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance must 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 the City.
Insurer will agree in writing to waive all rights of subrogation against the City, its officers, officials,
employees and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by Contractor for the City.
Automobile coverage must be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including
symbol 1 (Any Auto).
The Consultant must furnish to the City duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing
maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement, endorsements as required herein, and such
other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by the City from time to
time. Insurance must be placed with admitted insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating
equivalent to at least a Rating of "AMI." Certificate(s) must reflect that the insurer will provide thirty
(30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage. The Consultant 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.
The City requires California Worker's Compensation Coverage with the associated Waiver. Out-of-state
coverage will not be accepted in lieu of the California coverage, because the work is being performed in
the State of California.
By signing this form, the bidder certifies that it has read, understands, and will comply with these
insurance requirements if it is selected as the City's consultant. Failure to provide this insurance will
render the bidder's proposal "nonresponsive."

The following subsections 2-1.1 and 2-1.2 are added to the Greenbook.
2-1.1 ACCESS TO PROJECT SITE
Not later than the date designated in the City Notice to Proceed, the City will
provide access to the real property and facilities upon which the Work is to be
performed, including access to real property and facilities designated in the
Contract Documents for the Contractor's use.
2-1.2 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS.
The Contract Documents and all copies furnished to or provided by the
Contractor are the City's property and may not be used on other work.
2-3 SUBCONTRACTS
Subsection 2-3 Subcontractors of Greenbook is deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following subsection.
2-3.1 GENERAL
Except as provided in PCC §§ 4100 et. seq., each bidder will file with its bid the
name and location of the place of business of each subcontractor who will
perform work or labor or render service to the prime contractor in or about the
construction of the work or improvement, or a subcontractor licensed by the
State of California who, under subcontract to the prime contractor, specifically
fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to
detailed drawings contained.in the plans and specifications, in an amount in
excess of one-half of one percent of the prime contractor's total bid. Only one
subcontractor will be listed for each portion of the work, which portion will be
defined in the bid. In each instance, the nature and extent of the work to be
sublet will be described. The failure of the Contractor to specify a subcontractor,
or the listing of more than one subcontractor for the same portion of the work,
constitutes an agreement by the Contractor that it is fully qualified to perform
that portion itself and that it will perform that portion itself.
The Contractor must have the City Council's written consent to substitute a
subcontractor other than that designated in the original bid, to permit any
subcontract to be assigned or transferred, or to allow a subcontract to be
performed by other than the original subcontractor.
Subcontracting of work for which no subcontractor was designated in the
original bid, and which is more than one-half of one percent of the work, will be
allowed only in cases of public emergency or necessity, and then only after a
KHB20151022
Page 3 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
finding reduced to writing as a public record of the City Council setting forth the
facts constituting the emergency or necessity.
Violation of any of the above provisions will be considered a breach of the
Contract, and the City may terminate the Contractor's control over the Work,
cancel the contract, or assess the Contractor a penalty of not more than ten
percent of the subcontract involved.
All persons engaged in the work, including subcontractors and their employees
will be considered as employees of the Contractor. The Contractor will be solely
responsible for and have control over construction means, methods,
techniques, sequences, procedures, and the coordination of all portions of the
Work. The City will deal directly with, and make all payments to, the prime
Contractor.
When subcontracted work is not being prosecuted in a satisfactory manner, the
Contractor will be notified to take corrective action. The Engineer may report
the facts to the City Council. If the City Council so orders, and on receipt by the
Contractor of written instructions from the Engineer, the subcontractor will be
removed immediately from the Work. That subcontractor will not again be
employed on the Work.
If licensure or proper licensure is controverted, then proof of licensure pursuant
to this section must be made by production of a verified certificate of licensure
from the Contractors' State License Board which establishes that the individual
or entity bringing the action was duly licensed in the proper classification of
contractors at all times during the performance of any act or contract covered
by the action. Nothing in this subdivision requires any person or entity
controverting licensure or proper licensure to produce a verified certificate.
When licensure or proper licensure is controverted, the burden of proof to
establish licensure or proper licensure is on the licensee.
2-3.2 ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITY
Add the following to Subsection 2-3.2 Additional Responsibility:
The Contractor will submit experience statements for each subcontractor who
will perform contract work that amounts to more than ten percent (10%) of the
Work.

The Faithful Performance Bond and the Labor and Materials Bond must be paid
and in effect for one year after the acceptance of the job by the City in
KHB20151022

Agreement No. 5777
accordance with the guarantee required by Subsection 6-8.1.
a
Subsection 2-5.1 of the Greenbook is replaced by the following subsection.
2-5.1 GENERAL
The Contractor will maintain the following at the Work site:
One as -built copy of the Plans and Specifications, in good order and
marked to record current changes and selections made during
construction. As -built plans must be submitted to the City representative
for approval before the City pays a final retention amount.
2. The current accepted Contract Schedule.
1 Shop Drawings, Product Data, and Samples.
4. Approved permits from other agencies, including Cal -OSHA permits for
trench shoring.
5. All other required submittals.
1241. 1 *01 M 11104N
The Plans, Specifications, and other Contract Documents will govern the
Work. The Contract Documents are intended to be complementary and
cooperative and to describe and provide for a complete project. Anything
in the Specifications and not on the Plans, or on the Plans and not in the
Specifications, will be as though shown or mentioned in both.
Payment for any items on the plans for which there is no specific bid
item will be included in the various items of work or in any item to which
it is appurtenant.
If the Contractor performs any work which it knows or should know
involves an error, inconsistency, or omission without notifying and
obtaining written consent from the Engineer, the Contractor will be
responsible for the resulting losses, including, without limitation, the
costs of correcting defective work.
Page 5 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
2-5.2 PRECEDENCE OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The following paragraph is added to subsection 2-5.2 of the Greenbook:
As the figured dimensions shown on the plans and in the specifications of the
Contract may not in every case agree with scaled dimensions, the figured
dimensions will be followed in preference to the scaled dimensions, and plans
to a large scale will be followed in preference to the plans to a small scale.
Should it appear that the work to be done, or any of the matters relative thereto,
are not sufficiently detailed or explained in the Contract, the Contractor will
apply to the Engineer for such further explanations as may be necessary, and
will conform thereto as part of the Contract so far as may be consistent with the
terms thereof. Any items shown on drawings and not mentioned in the
specifications will be of like effect as if shown or mentioned in both.
2-5.5 ACCURACY OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Although it is believed that much of the information pertaining to conditions and
existing utilities that may affect the cost of the Work will be shown on the Plans
or indicated in the Specifications, the City does not warrant the completeness
or accuracy of such information.
The Contractor will carefully study and compare each of the Contract
Documents with the others and with information furnished by the City and will
promptly report in writing to the Engineer any errors, inconsistencies, or
omissions in the Contract Documents or inconsistencies with applicable law
observed by the Contractor.
The Contractor will take field measurements, verify field conditions, perform soil
investigations, and carefully compare with the Contract Documents such field
measurements, conditions, and other information known to the Contractor
before commencing the Work. Errors, inconsistencies, or omissions discovered
at any time will be promptly reported in writing to the Engineer.
2-8 RIGHT-OF-WAY
The following subsection is added to Subsection 2-8 of the Greenbook.
2-8.1 ADDITIONAL WORK AREAS AND FACILITIES
When the Contractor arranges for additional temporary work areas and
facilities, the Contractor will provide the City with proof that the additional work
areas or facilities have been left in a condition satisfactory to the owner(s) of
said work areas or facilities before acceptance of the work.

all necessary control lines based on the plans and record information on file
with the County of Los Angeles Surveyor and the Engineer.

on the plans. If the survey control is destroyed or disturbed during construction,
the Contractor will provide for resetting them and file appropriate documents
with the County of Los Angeles at the direction of the Engineer.
Computations, survey notes, and other data used to accomplish the work will
be neat, legible and accurate. Copies of all computations, survey notes, and
other data (electronic format may be required) will be furnished to the Engineer
before beginning work that requires their use.
2-9.3.2 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
Construction Survey — Unless a separate bid item is provided, payment will be
considered included in the other items of the bid and no additional payment will
be made therefore.
3-3.2.2 BASIS FOR ESTABLISHING COSTS

and third paragraphs are replaced with "Regardless of ownership, the rates to

e.g., the Eichleay or other method, may be used to calculate daily
damages for office overhead, profit, or other purported loss.
(b) Work by Subcontractors. When all or any part of the extra work is
performed by a Subcontractor, the markup established in 3-3.2.3(a) will
be applied to the Subcontractor's actual cost of such work. A markup of
10 percent on the first $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra
work and a markup of 5 percent on work added in excess of $5,000 of
the subcontracted portion of the extra work may be added by the
Contractor.
(c) In the event that City becomes liable to Contractor for compensable
delays, City agrees to pay Contractor the daily Contractor Delay
Damages set forth in the Bid Form or Contractor's actual daily delay
damages, whichever is less, for each day of Compensable Delay as
provided for by these Contract Documents.

Page 8 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
Contractor will immediately notify the Engineer in writing of such changed
conditions (upon discovery and before disturbing such changed conditions), as
provided in Subsection 6-11, so that the Engineer can determine if such
conditions require design details that differ from those design details shown in
the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding the time period set forth in
Subsection 6-11.3, the Contractor is liable to the City for any extra costs
incurred as a result of the Contractor's failure to promptly give such notice.
Changed conditions include, without limitation, the following:
Subsurface or latent physical conditions differing materially from those
represented in the Contract Documents;

conditions. The Engineer's decision, and any dispute regarding that decision,
will be made in accordance with Section 6-11 except that the Engineer will
render a decision promptly.

any representation or warranty by the City whatsoever as to its accuracy,

subsection.

Standard Specifications. Although not to be construed as proceeding under
extra work provisions, the Contractor will keep and furnish records of disputed

replaced by the following subsections.

bid opening. Failure to submit all required documentation and/or submittal of
incomplete documents may result in the City's rejection of the proposed "equal"
product without further consideration.
5-2 PROTECTION
The following subsection is added to Subsection 5-2 of the Greenbook.
5-2.1 INCORRECT LOCATION OF UTILITIES

City, the Contractor will immediately notify the City and utility owner in writing.
5-4 RELOCATION
The following subsection is added to Subsection 5-4 of the Greenbook.
5-4.1 RESPONSIBILITY OF UTILITY REMOVAL OR RELOCATION
The City will be responsible to arrange for the removal, repair, or relocation of
existing utilities located within the project limits if such utilities are not correctly
identified in the contract plans or specifications by the City. The City will have
the sole discretion to perform repairs or relocation work or permit the Contractor
to do such repairs or relocation.

5-5 DELAYS
The following paragraphs are added to Subsection 5-5 of the Greenbook.
Actual loss, as used in this Subsection, will be understood to include no items
of expense other than idle time of equipment and necessary payments for idle
time of workers, cost of extra moving of equipment, and cost of longer hauls.
Compensation for idle time of equipment and idle time of workers will be
determined by Subsection 5-5.1 and no markup will be added in either case for
overhead and profit. The cost of extra moving of equipment and the cost of
longer hauls will be paid for as extra work.
The following subsection is added to Subsection 5-5 of the Greenbook.
5-5.1 CALCULATING IDLE TIME
Equipment idle time will calculated in accordance with Subsection 3-3.2.2 and
based upon the actual normal working time during which the delay condition
exists, but in no case will exceed 8 hours in any one day. The days for which
compensation will be paid will be the calendar days, excluding Saturdays,
Sundays and legal holidays, during the existence of the delay.
Worker idle time will be calculated in accordance with Subsection 3-3.2.2.
6-1 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND COMMENCEMENT OF WORK
Section 6-1, Construction Schedule and Commencement of Work, is deleted in
its entirety and replaced by the following subsections.
P're-Construction Meetino:
After contract award, the City will arrange for a pre -construction meeting to
discuss the construction of the project. City will invite utility agencies and the
contractor will arrange for all of its sub -contractors to attend the meeting.
6-1.1 CONTRACT SCHEDULE
After notification of award and before starting any work, the Contractor will
submit a Contract Schedule to the Engineer for review, as required by these
Specifications within fifteen (15) calendar days of award.
6-1.2 CONTENT OF CONTRACT SCHEDULE
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedule, will meet the
following requirements:
KHB20151022
Page 12 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
1. Schedules must be suitable for monitoring progress of the Work.
2. Schedules must provide necessary data about the time for the
Engineer's decisions.
3. Schedules must be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate adequate
planning for the Work.
4. Schedules must represent a practical plan to complete the Work within
the Contract Time.
5. Schedules must show the critical path method for completing the Work.
The Engineer's review of the form and general content of the Contract
Schedule and any updated Contract Schedules is only for the purpose of
determining if the listed requirements are satisfied, nothing more.
6-1.3 EFFECT OF CONTRACT SCHEDULE
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedules, will represent a
practical plan to complete the Work within the Contract Time. Extension of any
schedule beyond the Contract Time will not be acceptable. Schedules showing
the Work completed in less than the Contract may be acceptable if judged by
the Engineer to be practical. Acceptance of such a schedule by the Engineer
will not change the Contract Time. The Contract Time, not the Contract
Schedule, will control in determining liquidated damages payable by the
Contractor and in determining any delay.
If a schedule showing the Work completed in less than the Contract Time is
accepted, the Contractor will not be entitled to extensions of the Contract Time
for Excusable Delays or Compensable Delays or to adjustments of the Contract
Sum for Compensable Delays until such delays extend the completion of the
Work beyond the expiration of the Contract Time.
The Contractor will plan, develop, supervise, control, and coordinate the
performance of the Work so that its progress and the sequence and timing of
Work activities conform to the current accepted Contract Schedule. The
Contractor will continuously obtain from Subcontractors information and data
about the planning for and progress of the Work and the delivery of equipment,
will coordinate and integrate such information and data into updated Contract
Schedules, and will monitor the progress of the Work and the delivery of
equipment. The Contractor will act as the expeditor of potential and actual
delays, interruptions, hindrances, or disruptions for its own forces and those
forces of Subcontractors. The Contractor will cooperate with the Engineer in
developing the Contract Schedule and updated Contract Schedules.
The Engineer's review and comments about any schedule or scheduling data
will not relieve the Contractor from its sole responsibility to plan for, perform,
and complete the Work within the Contract Time. Review and comments about
any schedule will not transfer responsibility for any schedule to the Engineer or
KH 620151022
Page 13 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
the City nor imply their agreement with (1) any assumption upon which such
schedule is based or (2) any matter underlying or contained in such schedule.
The Engineer's failure to discover errors or omissions in schedules that have
been reviewed, or to inform the Contractor that the Contractor, Subcontractors,
or others are behind schedule, or to direct or enforce procedures for complying
with the Contract Schedule will not relieve the Contractor from its sole
responsibility to perform and complete the Work within the Contract Time and
will not be a cause for an adjustment of the Contract Time or the Contract Sum.
The Contractor will perform the Work in accordance with the currently accepted
Contract Schedule.
6-1.4 COMMENCEMENT OF CONTRACT TIME
The Contract Time will commence when the City issues a Notice to Proceed.
The Work will start on the date specified in the Notice to Proceed and within a
maximum of fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the Notice to Proceed,
and be diligently prosecuted to completion with the time provided in the
Specifications.
The language in subsection 6-4 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following subsections.
6-4.1 GENERAL
Should the Contractor fail to begin delivery of material and equipment, to
commence the Work within the time specified, to maintain the rate of delivery
of material, to execute the Work in the manner and at such locations as
specified, or fail to maintain the Work schedule (as determined by the current
accepted Contract Schedule) which will ensure the City's interest, or if the
Contractor is not carrying out the intent of the Contract, the City may serve
written notice upon the Contractor and the Surety on its Faithful Performance
Bond demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract.
HN irk LOTO
The City may terminate the Contractor's control over the Work without liability
for damages when, in the City's opinion, the Contractor is not complying in good
faith, has become insolvent, or has assigned or subcontracted any part of the
Work without the City's consent. Should such termination occur, the Contractor
will be paid the actual amount due based on Contract Unit Prices or lump sums
bid and the quantity and quality of the Work completed at the time of
termination, less damages caused to the City by the Contractor's action or
KHB20151022
Page 14 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
inaction.
In the event of such termination of control, the City may do any one, or
combination of, the following:
1. Serve written notice upon the Surety on its Faithful Performance Bond
demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract. In such event the
Surety will, within 5 days, assume control and perform the Work as
successor to the Contractor;
2. The City may perform the Work itself and deduct the cost thereof from
any payment due to the Contractor;
3. The City may replace the Contractor with a different contractor to
complete the work and deduct the cost thereof from any payment due to
the Contractor.
Nothing herein will waive, or serve as a limitation upon, any additional remedy
the City may have under these Contract Documents or applicable law.
6-6 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
Subsection 6-6 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following
subsections.
6-6.1 GENERAL
If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of the Contractor,
such delays will entitle the Contractor to an extension of time as provided
herein, but the Contractor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment
due to such delays except as otherwise provided herein. Excusable delay may
include: war, earthquakes exceeding 3.5 on the Richter Scale, government
regulation, labor disputes outside the contemplation of the parties, strikes
outside the contemplation of the parties, fires, floods, changes to the Work as
identified herein, or other specific events that may be further described in the
Specifications.
Delays to the project caused by labor disputes or strikes involving trades not
directly related to the project, or involving trades not affecting the project as a
whole will not warrant an extension of time.
The City will not grant an extension of time for a delay by the Contractor's
inability to obtain materials unless the Contractor furnishes to the Engineer
documentary proof. The proof must be provided in a timely manner in
accordance with the sequence of the Contractor's operations and accepted
construction schedule.
Should delays be caused by events other than those included herein, the
cr:�z�sF�r�Yx�
Page 15 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
Engineer may, but is not required to, deem an extension of time to be in the
City's best interests.
6-6.2 EXTENSIONS OF TIME
If granted, extensions of time will be based upon the effect of delays to the
critical path of the Work as determined by the current accepted Contract
Schedule. Delays to minor portions of the Work that do not affect the critical
path will not be eligible for extensions of time.
6-6.3 PAYMENT FOR DELAYS TO CONTRACTOR
Any payment for compensable delay will be based upon actual costs as set
forth in Subsection 5-5 excluding, without limitation, what damages, if any, the
Contractor may have reasonably avoided. The Contractor understands that this
is the sole basis for recovering delay damages and explicitly waives any right
to calculate daily damages for office overhead, profit, or other purported loss,
using different formulas including, without limitation, the Eichleay Formula.
6-6.4 WRITTEN NOTICE AND REPORT
If the Contractor desires payment for a delay or an extension of time, it will give
the Engineer written notice of such request not later than the time limit set forth
in the Proposal for submitting a claim after the event or occurrence giving rise
to a delay claim. Failure to submit a written request within such amount of time
will result in the Contractor waiving its delay claim.
Any claim for payment or an extension of time must be in the form required by
the "Claims" sections of these Specifications.
In no event will the City grant the Contractor an extension of time if the delay is
within the Contract Time as identified by the Contract Documents.

Working on Fridays when City Hall is closed is acceptable. If the Contractor,
however, requests an inspection a day when City Hall is closed, then the
Contractor will have to reimburse the City for the costs of inspection. The
Contractor must request such an inspection at least 48 hours in advance. City
inspections during hours when City Hall is closed are subject to inspection
overtime fees to be paid for by the Contractor. Friday work that does not require
inspection can be done without an inspection fee and must be discussed with
City staff before its occurrence. If the Contractor does construction on a Friday
or a day when City Hall is closed, that day is counted as a project working day.
On workdays, Contractor's activities will be confined to the hours between 7:00
a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
Please see Section 6-7.5 below for weekend and holiday work restrictions.
6-7.4 NIGHT WORK
The following paragraph is added to Section 6-7 of the Greenbook:
The City will not permit Work between the hours of 4 p.m. and 7 a.m. of the
following day unless specifically provided for in the bid documents or unless
the Contractor receives prior written approval.
The Engineer may, but is not required to, allow the Contractor to work on
Saturdays, Sundays and City Holidays.

000121TERMIUM9 IMMUNE
Subsection 6-8 of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the
following:
The Work will be inspected by the Engineer for acceptance upon the Engineer
receiving the Contractor's written assertion that the Work is complete.
If, in the Engineer's judgment, the Work is complete and is ready for
acceptance, the Engineer will accept the Work on behalf of the City in the
manner prescribed by the City. The Engineer will recommend approval of the
Notice of Completion to the City Council. This will be the date when the
Contractor is relieved from responsibility to protect the Work.
All work will be guaranteed by the Contractor against defective workmanship
and materials furnished by the Contractor for a period of 1 year from the date
the Work was completed. The Contractor will replace or repair any such
defective work in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer, after notice to do so
from the Engineer, and within the time specified in the notice. If the Contractor
fails to make such replacement or repairs within the time specified in the notice,
the City may perform this work and the Contractor's sureties will be liable for
the cost thereof.
6-8.1 GENERAL GUARANTY
The Contractor will remedy any defects in the work and pay for any damage to
other work resulting therefrom, which will appear within a period of one year
from the date of final acceptance of the work unless a longer period is specified.
The owner will give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness.
Subsection 6-9, Liquidated Damages, of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety
and replaced by the following subsections.
6-9.1 FAILURE TO COMPLETE WORK ON TIME
If all the work called for under the contract is not completed before or upon the
expiration of the Contract Time, the City will sustain damage. Since it is and will
be impracticable to determine the actual damage which the City will sustain in
the event of and by reason of such delay, it is therefore agreed that the
Contractor will pay to the City the sum specified in the Proposal for each and
every calendar day beyond the time prescribed to complete the work not as a
penalty, but as a predetermined liquidated damage. The Contractor agrees to
pay such liquidated damages as are herein provided, and in case the same are
not paid, agrees that the City may deduct the amount thereof from any money
KHB20151022
Page 18 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
due or that may become due to the Contractor under the contract.
Unless otherwise specified, liquidated damages will be $250 per calendar day.
6-11.1 GENERAL
Consistent with PCC § 10240.6, "Claim" means a written demand or assertion
by the Contractor that seeks an adjustment or interpretation of the terms of the
Contract Documents, payment of money, extension of time, or other relief with
respect to the Contract Documents, including a determination of disputes or
matters in question between the City and the Contractor arising out of or related
to the Contract Documents or the performance of the Work, and claims alleging
an unforeseen condition or an act, error, or omission by the City, the Engineer,
their agents or employees. "Claim" does not mean, and the Claims procedures

regulations, which a government agency is specifically authorized to
administer, settle, or determine.
2. Claims respecting personal injury, death, reimbursement, or other
compensation arising out of or resulting from liability for personal injury
or death.
3. Claims respecting a latent defect, breach of warranty, or guarantee to
repair.
4. Claims respecting stop notices.
If a Claim is subject to the Change Order procedures, the Claim arises upon
the issuance of a written final decision denying in whole or in part the
Contractor's Change Order Request. If a Claim is not subject to the Change
Order Procedures, the Claim arises when the Contractor discovers, or
reasonably should discover, the condition or event giving rise to the Claim.
6-11.2 FORM
A Claim must include the following:
A statement that it is a Claim and a request for a decision.
2. A detailed description of the act, error, omission, unforeseen condition,

FINES, IMPRISONMENT, AND OTHER SEVERE LEGAL
CONSEQUENCES."
6-11.3 CLAIMS SUBMITTED TO ENGINEER
Within thirty (30) calendar days after the circumstances giving rise to a Claim
occur, the Contractor will submit its Claim to the Engineer for a decision.
Regardless of any Claim submittal, or any dispute regarding a Claim, unless
otherwise directed by the Engineer, the Contractor will not cause any delay,
cessation, or termination of the Work, but will diligently proceed with the
performing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Except as
otherwise provided, the City will continue to make payments in accordance with
the Contract Documents.
6-11.4 CLAIM IS PREREQUISITE TO OTHER REMEDY
The Contractor certifies that it is familiar with PCC § 10240.2 and understands
and agrees that submitting a Claim in accordance with these Specifications is
an express condition precedent to the Contractor's right to otherwise pursue a

Page 21 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
The Engineer will render a decision not later than 30 calendar days after either
receiving the Claim or the deadline for furnishing additional supporting data,
whichever is later. If the Claim amount is more than $50,000, the time period
will be extended to 60 days. If the Engineer fails to render a decision within the
time period established herein, then the Claim will be deemed denied. The
Engineer's decision will be final and binding unless appealed in accordance
with these Specifications.
The Engineer's decision on a Claim will include a statement substantially as
follows:
"This is a decision pursuant to the General Specifications of your contract. If
you are dissatisfied with the decision, and have complied with the procedural
requirements for asserting claims, you may have the right to alternative dispute

Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Construction Industry Mediation
Rules, unless the use of such rules are waived by mutual stipulation of both
parties.
The parties may, but are not required to be, represented by counsel in
mediation.
The requirement for mediation will not alter or modify the time limitations
Page 22 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
otherwise provided for claims and no conduct or settlement negotiation. during
mediation will be considered a waiver of the City's right to assert that claim
procedures were not followed.

6-11.9 WHEN ARBITRATION DECISION BECOMES BINDING
The decision rendered by the arbitrator will become binding upon the parties
unless appealed to the Los Angeles County Superior Court pursuant to PCC §
10240.12 within thirty (30) calendar days of the decision. If subsequent litigation
results in an award to the party appealing the arbitration that is less than or
equal to that of the arbitration decision, or if the litigation results in a decision

The following subsections are added to Subsection 7-2 of the Green Book.
7-2.3 PREVAILING WAGES
The Contractor will post at appropriate conspicuous points at the site of the
project a schedule showing determinations of the Director of Industrial
Relations of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. It will be the Contractor's
responsibility to obtain copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. One
source that may be used is the California Department of Industrial Relations
website which is currently located at www.dir.ca.gov, or by calling the Prevailing
Wage Unit at (415) 703-4774.
Attention is directed to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the
employment of apprentices by the Contractor or any subcontractor.
Labor Code § 1777.5 requires the 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 will 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 will not be less than one to five except:
a) When employment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship
committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the ninety (90)
calendar days before the request for certificate, or
b) When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio
of one to five, or
c) 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
d) When the Contractor provides evidence that the Contractor employs
registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of
not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.
The Contractor is required to make contributions to funds established for the
administration of apprenticeship programs if the 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.
The Contractor and any subcontractor will comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5
KH B20151022
Page 24 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.
Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other
requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations,
ex -officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or
from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.
7-2.4 RECORD OF WAGES PAID: INSPECTION
Every Contractor and subcontractor will keep an accurate certified payroll
records showing the name, occupation, and the actual per diem wages paid to
each worker employed in connection with the Work. The record will be kept
open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the body awarding the contract
and to the Division of Labor Law Enforcement. If requested by the City, the
Contractor will provide copies of the records at its cost.

covered as insureds as respects: liability arising out of activities performed by
or on behalf of the Contractor; products and completed operations of the
Contractor; premises owned, occupied or used by the Contractor; or
automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by the Contractor. The coverage
will contain no special limitations on the scope or protection afforded to the City,
its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.
The Contractor's insurance coverage will be primary insurance as respects the

The following requirements are added to establish storm water and urban runoff
pollution prevention controls.
(a) Storm or construction generated water containing sediment such as,
construction waste, soil, slurry from concrete/asphalt concrete saw
cutting operations, clean up of concrete transit mixers or other pollutants
from construction sites and parking areas will be retained or controlled
on site and will not be permitted to enter the storm drain system.
(b) Temporary sediment filtering systems such as sandbags, silt fences, or
gravel berms will be utilized to trap sediment so that only filtered water
enters the City's storm drain system. Proper clean up and disposal of
settled sediment and the filtering system will be the responsibility of the

to the existing improvements and will match such improvements in finish and
dimensions unless otherwise specified.
7-10 PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY
The following requirement is added to Section 7-10:
Unless otherwise specified all traffic control will be performed in accordance
with the Work Area Traffic Control Handbook (WATCH) Latest Edition,
published by Building News, 3055 Overland Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90034,
telephone 310-474-7771.
7-10.1 TRAFFIC AND ACCESS
The Contractor will notify the occupants of all affected properties at least 48
hours before any temporary obstruction of access. Vehicular access to property
line will be maintained except as required for construction for a reasonable
period of time. No overnight closure of any driveway will be allowed except as
permitted by the Engineer.
At least one (1) twelve (12) foot wide traffic lane will be provided for each
direction of travel on all streets at all times except as permitted by the Engineer.
The traffic lanes will be maintained on pavement, and will remain unobstructed.
All work requiring that a lane be closed or a lane moved right or left will be
noticed to the traveling public by use of City approved lighted arrow boards.
Clearances from traffic lanes will be five (5) feet to the edge of any excavation
and two (2) feet to the face of any curb, pole, barricade, delineator, or other
vertical obstruction.
One four (4) foot wide paved pedestrian walkway will be maintained in the
parkway area on each side of all streets. The clearance from the pedestrian
walkway to any traffic lane will be five (5) feet. Pedestrians and vehicles will be
protected from all excavations, material storage, and/or obstructions by the
placement of an adequate number of lighted barricades (minimum two (2)) at
KHB20151022
Page 31 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
each location, one (1) at each end of the obstruction or excavation), which will
have flashing lights during darkness. Barricades will be Type I or Type II per
Section 7-3 of the WATCH Manual and lights will be Type A per Section 7-6 of

Temporary traffic channelization will be accomplished with barricades or
delineators. Temporary striping will not be allowed unless specifically permitted
by the Engineer. The Contractor will prepare any plans that may be required
for temporary striping to the satisfaction of the Engineer. In no event will
temporary striping be allowed on finish pavement surfaces, which are to
remain.
Where access to driveway or street crossings need to be maintained, minimum
1 1/4 inch thick steel plating will be used to bridge the trench. All steel plating
will have temporary asphalt concrete 1:12 minimum sloped ramps to assist
vehicles to cross comfortably over the plates and have a non-skid surface.
Plates subject to vehicle high traffic speeds and in residential areas will be
secured by welding at the discretion of the Engineer.
7-10.5 PROTECTION OF THE PUBLIC
It is part of the service required of the Contractor to make whatever provisions
are necessary to protect the public. The Contractor will use foresight and will
take such steps and precautions as his operations warrant to protect the public
from danger, loss of life or loss of property, which would result from interruption
or contamination of public water supply, interruption of other public service, or
from the failure of partly completed work or partially removed facilities. Unusual
conditions may arise on the Project which will require that immediate and
unusual provisions be made to protect the public from danger or loss of life, or
damage to life and property, due directly or indirectly to prosecution of work
under this contract.
Whenever, in the opinion of the Engineer, an emergency exists against which
the Contractor has not taken sufficient precaution for the public safety,
protection of utilities and protection of adjacent structures or property, which
may be damaged by the Contractor's operations and when, in the opinion of
the Engineer, immediate action will be considered necessary in order to protect
KHB20151022
Page 32 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
the public or property due to the Contractor's operations under this contract,
the Engineer will order the Contractor to provide a remedy for the unsafe
condition. If the Contractor fails to act on the situation immediately, the
Engineer may provide suitable protection to said interests by causing such work
to be done and material to be furnished as, in the opinion of the Engineer, may
seem reasonable and necessary.
The cost and expense of said labor and material, together with the cost and
expense of such repairs as are deemed necessary, will be borne by the
Contractor. All expenses incurred by the City for emergency repairs will be
deducted from the progress payments and the final payment due to the
Contractor. Such remedial measures by the City will not relieve the Contractor
from full responsibility for public safety.
7-15 HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
The following Subsection will be added to Section 7 of the Greenbook:
For any excavation, which extends more than four feet below existing grade,
the Contractor will promptly, and before the conditions are disturbed, notify the
Engineer, in writing, of 1) any material that the Contractor believes may be
hazardous waste, as defined in Health and Safety Code § 25117, which is
required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in
accordance with provisions of existing law, 2) subsurface or latent physical
conditions at the site differing from those indicated, or 3) unknown physical
conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those
ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the
character provided for in the Contract Documents.
After receiving notice from the Contractor, the Engineer will promptly
investigate any condition identified by the Contractor as being hazardous. The
rights and obligations of the City and the Contractor with regard to such
conditions (including, without limitation, the procedures for procuring change
orders and filing claims) will be specified by the provisions of Subsection 3-4
(Changed Conditions) of the Greenbook.
If a dispute arises between the City and the Contractor whether the conditions
materially differ, involve hazardous waste, or cause a change in the
Contractor's cost or time required for performance of the work, the Contractor
will not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by the
contract, but will proceed with all work to be performed under the contract. The
Contractor will retain all rights provided by Subsection 3-5, Disputed Work, of
the Greenbook.
If the Engineer determines that material called to the Engineer's attention by
the Contractor is hazardous waste, or if the Engineer otherwise discovers the
KHB20151022
Page 33 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
existence of hazardous waste, the Contractor will be responsible for removal
and disposal of the hazardous waste by qualified personnel and appropriate
equipment in the manner required by law as directed by the Engineer, subject
to the provisions of Section 3 (Changes in Work) of the Greenbook.
9-2 LUMP SUM WORK
Subsection 9-2, Lump Sum Work, of the Greenbook is deleted in its entirety
and replaced by the following:
Items for which quantities are indicated as "Lump Sum," "L.S.," or "Job" will be
paid for at the price indicated in the Proposal. Such payment will be full
compensation for all costs for labor, equipment, materials and plant necessary
to furnish, construct and install the lump sum item of work, complete, in place,
and for all necessary appurtenant work, including, but not limited to, all
necessary cutting, patching, repair and modification of existing facilities, and
clean up of site.
Contractor will furnish three copies of a detailed schedule, which breaks down
the lump sum work into its component parts and cost for each part, in a form
and sufficiently detailed as to satisfy Engineer that it correctly represents a
reasonable apportionment of the lump sum. This schedule is subject to
approval by Engineer as to both the components into which the lump sum item
is broken down, and the proportion of cost attributable to each component.
This schedule will be the basis for progress payments for the lump sum work.
9-3.2 PARTIAL AND FINAL PAYMENTS
The text of Subsection 9-3.2 of the Standard Specifications is deleted and
replaced with the following:
The closure date for the purpose of making partial progress payments will be
the last working day of each month. The Contractor will prepare the partial
payment invoice with measurement of the work performed through the closure
date and submit it to the CITY for approval.
When work is complete, the Contractor will determine the final quantities of the
work performed and prepare the final progress payment, and submit it to the
Engineer for approval.
It will take a minimum of thirty-five (35) calendar days from the date of
approving the Contractor's invoice to make the payment to the Contractor.
However, payments will be withheld pending receipt of any outstanding reports
required by the contract documents, or legal release of filed Stop Payment
Notices against the Contractor. In addition, the final progress payment will not
KHB20151022
Page 34 of 36
Agreement No. 5777
be released until the Contractor returns the control set of Plans and
Specifications showing the as -built conditions.
The full five percent (5%) retention will be deducted from all progress
payments. The Contractor will make a payment request for the retained
amount, for approval by the City, upon field acceptance of the work by the City
Engineer. The City Engineer upon field acceptance and receipt of the final as -
built plans and any other reports or documents required to be provided by the
Contractor will process a recommendation to the City Council for acceptance
of the work. Not less than thirty-five (35) calendar days from the City Council
acceptance of the work, the Contractor's final payment will be made provided
Stop Payment Notices or other claims have not been filed against the
Contractor and/or the City by material suppliers, sub -contractors, other
governmental agencies, and private property owners. Until these Stop
Payment Notices are released and claims are resolved the stop payment/claim
amount will be withheld from the final payment.
The Contractor, however, may receive interest on the retention for the length
of construction, or receive the retention itself as long as the retention is
substituted with escrow holder surety or equal value.
At the request and expense of the Contractor, surety equivalent to the retention
may be deposited with the State Treasurer, or a State or Federally chartered
bank, as the escrow agent, who will pay such surety to the Contractor upon
satisfactory completion of the contract.
Pursuant to PCC § 22300, the Contractor may substitute securities for retention
monies held by the City or request that the City place such monies into an
escrow account. The Contractor is notified, pursuant to PCC § 22300, that any
such election will be at the Contractor's own expense and will include costs
incurred by the City to accommodate the Contractor's request.
Progress payment paid by the City as contemplated herein, will be contingent
upon the Contractor submitting, in addition to any additional documents, an
updated Contract Schedule in the form prescribed by these Contract
Documents. Failure of the Contractor to submit an acceptable updated Contract
Schedule will result in the City withholding partial payment, without liability to
the City, until such an acceptable updated Contract Schedule is submitted.
Nothing herein will allow the Contractor to suspend or slow progress of the
Work.
A City Council resolution established a Project Payment Account, encumbered
money in the current budget, and assigned that money to the Project Payment
Account which is the sole source of funds available for payment of the Contract
Sum. Contractor understands and agrees that Contractor will be paid only from
this special fund and if for any reason this fund is not sufficient to pay
