GUIDE FOR COMPLETING
THE “DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS” FORM
REFERENCES Prior to preparation of the following Subcontractor disclosure form Bidders are urged
to review the definitions in section 1-2 of the SSPWC (“Greenbook”) and in the Supplemental
Provisions to this Contract, especially, “Bid”, “Bidder”, “Contract“, “Contractor“, “Contract Price”,
“Contract Unit Price”, “Engineer”, “Subcontractor” and Work” and the definitions in section 1-2 of the
Supplemental Provisions especially “Own Organization.’’ Bidders are further urged to review sections
2-3 SUBCONTRACTS of the Greenbook and section 2-3.1 of these Supplemental Provisions.
CAUTIONS This form will be used by the Agency to determine the percentage of work that the
Bidder proposes to perform. Bidders are cautioned that failure to provide complete and correct
information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive. Any bid that proposes performance
of more than 50 percent of the work by subcontractors or otherwise to be preformed by forces other
than the Bidder’s own organization will be rejected as non-responsive. Specialty items of work that
may be so designated by the Engineer on the “Contractor‘s Proposal” are not included in computing
the percentage of work proposed to be performed by the Bidder.
INSTRUCTIONS The Bidder shall set forth the name and location of business of each and every
subcontractor whom the Bidder proposes to perform work or labor or render service in or about the
work or improvement, and every subcontractor licensed as a contractor by the State of California
whom the Bidder proposes to specially fabricate and install any portion of the work or improvement
according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications in excess of one-half of one
percent (0.5%) of the Bidder’s total bid or, in the case of bids or offers for the construction of streets
and highways, including bridges, in excess of one-half of one percent (0.5%) or ten thousand dollars
($1 0,000) whichever is greater. Said name(s) and location(s) of business of subcontractor(s) shall be
set forth and included as an integral part of the bid offer.
The Designation of Subcontractors form must be submitted as a part of the Bidder’s sealed bid.
Failure to Drovide comDlete and correct information may result in reiection of the bid as non-
rewonsive.
Suppliers of materials from sources outside the limits of work are not subcontractors. The value of
materials and transport of materials from sources outside the limits of work, as shown on the plans,
shall be assigned to the Contractor or the Subcontractor as the case may be, that the Bidder
proposes as installer of said materials. The value of material incorporated in any Subcontractor-
installed bid item that is supplied by the Bidder shall be included as a part of the work that the Bidder
proposes to be performed by the Subcontractor installing said item.
When a Subcontractor has a Carlsbad business license, the number must be entered on the proper
form. If the Subcontractor does not have a valid business license, enter “NONE” in the appropriate
space.
When the Bidder proposes using a Subcontractor to construct or install less than 100 percent of a
bid item, the Bidder shall attach an explanation sheet to the Designation of Subcontractor form. The
explanation sheet shall clearly apprise the City of the specific facts that show the Bidder proposes to
perform no less than fifty percent (50%) of the work with its own forces.
Determination of the subcontract amounts for purposes of award of the contract shall be determined
by the Board of Directors in conformance with the provisions of the contract documents and the
Supplemental Provisions. The decision of the Board of Directors shall be final.

Notes to Financial Statements
-3-
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
A. Nature of Business - J. Fletcher Creamer & Son, Inc. (the Company) is a construction
contractor with operations throughout the United States. The principal services of the
Company include heavy and general construction, the construction and installation of
various roadwork barriers, curbs, guiderails, and signs, the installation of gas, water, and
sewer mains, electric and fiber optic conduit, fiber optic cable, and the cleaning and lining
of water and sewer mains. The work is performed under fixed price, unit price, and time
and material contracts. The length of the Company's contracts varies, but is typically less
than three years.
B. Method of Accounting for Income from Construction Contracts - Income from long-term
construction contracts is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. Under this
method estimated profit to be earned upon completion of a contract is recognized in the
proportion that direct costs incurred to date bears to estimated total costs to complete the
contract. Cost and profit estimates are subject to revision as contracts extend over one or
more periods, and any required adjustments are made in the period in which revisions
become known. Provisions are made for the full amount of anticipated losses in the period in
which they are first determinable. Claims for additional contract revenues are recognized to
the extent of costs incurred if it is probable that the claim will result in additional revenue and
the amount can be reliably estimated. Profit on such claims is not recognized until the claims
have been allowed. Revenues earned from time and material contracts are recognized on
the basis of costs incurred during the period plus the fee earned, measured by the cost-to-
cost method.
The asset, "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on contracts in progress",
represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, "Billings in excess of
costs and estimated earnings on contracts in progress", represents billings in excess of
revenues recognized.
C. Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
D. Balance Sheet Classification - In accordance with industry practice, the Company includes in
current assets and liabilities amounts realizable and payable under long-term construction
contracts. These contracts extend to periods of up to three years.
E. Marketable Equity Securities - Marketable equity securities are classified as available for sale
and are carried at fair market value. The cost of securities sold is based on specific
identification.
-4-
- Note I - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):
F. Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or
market, and consists principally of job materials that have been purchased for construction
contracts.
G. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost and items are
depreciated under the accelerated and straight line methods. Depreciation is provided in
amounts sufficient to write off the cost of depreciable assets, less salvage value, over their
estimated useful lives.
H. Income Taxes - The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected under the
Internal Revenue Code and New Jersey Tax Code to be taxed as an S Corporation. In lieu of
corporate federal income taxes, the stockholders of an S Corporation are taxed on their
proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for
federal income taxes has been included in these financial statements. The provision for state
taxes has been computed at the reduced rate allowed for New Jersey S Corporations. The
Company will continue to be subject to state taxes of those jurisdictions in which it currently
operates at the applicable state tax rates.
I. Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
J. Concentration of Credit Risk for Cash Held at Banks - The Company maintains cash
balances at several banks. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. The Company invests excess cash in high quality
money market mutual funds which subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk.
K. Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts in order to
conform to the current year presentation.
Note 2 - Unbilled Accounts Receivable:
Included in requisitions, accounts, retainages, and other receivables are unbilled accounts
receivable of $363,228 and $2,183,987 as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, which were
substantially billed in the following month.
-5-
- Note 3 - Marketable Equity Securities:
Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale
securities are recorded at fair value, with the change in fair value during the period excluded from
retained earnings and recorded as a separate component of equity.
Cost and fair values of marketable equity securities at December 31, 2003 and 2002, are as
follows:
cost Unrealized Fair Basis Gain (Loss) Value
December 31,2003
Equity securities !§ 220,358 $ 150,077 $ 370,435
December 31,2002
Equity securities $ 912,731 $ (644,056) $ 268,675
The change in the net unrealized gain {loss) on marketable equity securities included in
stockholders’ equity was $794,133 and $(818,058) for the years ended December 31,2003 and 2002,
respectively.
Note 4 - Investment in Joint Ventures:
The Company is accounting for its investment in joint ventures by recording the investment in
the balance sheet under the equity method of accounting under which the Company’s share of the
net income for the joint venture is added to the investment account, and distributions received from
the joint venture are treated as a reduction of the investment account. In the income statement the
Company’s proportionate share of revenues and expenses of the joint ventures are presented
separately as revenues and expenses.
-6-

The Company has a one-third interest in Bishop-Sanzari-Creamer (a Joint Venture). The joint
venture performs heavy highway and general construction services throughout Northern New Jersey.

y-- Note 15 - Pending Adoption of Accounting Standard and Relationship with ReShore Risk
Management. Ltd.:
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN
46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 establishes standards for identifying a
variable interest entity and for determining under what circumstances a variable interest entity should
be consolidated with its primary beneficiary. The requirements of FIN 46 apply to the Company for
its year ending December 31,2005.
Prior to FIN 46, a company generally included another entity in the company’s financial
statements only if it controlled the entity through ownership of the majority voting interests. FIN 46
changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company
is the primary beneficiary as evidenced by being subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the
variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or
both.
Based on management’s assessment of the requirements of FIN 46, management believes it
is reasonably possible the Company will consolidate or be required to provide certain additional
disclosures about ReShore Risk Management, Ltd. when FIN 46 becomes effective. ReShore Risk
Management, Ltd. provides liability insurance to the Company. The financial statements of ReShore
Risk Management, Ltd. for the short-year April 14, 2003 - December 31, 2003 included the
following:
-- Assets:
Cash
Other Assets
Total Assets
$ 3,022,686
46,312
$ 3,068,998
Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity:
Reserves Payable $ 1,422,829
Other Liabilities 671,825 -
Shareholders Equity 974,344
Total Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity
Net Income
$ 3,068,998
$ 224,344
When FIN 46 becomes effective, the net amount that may be added to the Company’s
balance sheet may either be reported as the cumulative effect of an accounting change, or by
restating previously issued financial statements with a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the
beginning of the first year restated. Since the Company is not required to restate its financial
statements, it does not intend to do so.

default by Contractor per section 6-4. No separate payment will be made for the Contractor’s
attendance at the meeting. The notice to proceed will only be issued on or after the completion of
the preconstruction meeting.
6-1 .I .I Baseline Construction Schedule Submittal. The Contractor shall submit the Baseline

support and maintain the project for the entire contractual timespan of the project. Should the
Contractor propose a project duration shorter than contract duration, a complete Baseline
Construction Schedule must be submitted, reflecting the shorter duration, in complete accordance
with all schedule requirements of section 6-1. The Engineer may choose to accept the Contractor’s
proposal of a project duration shorter than the duration specified; provided the Agency is satisfied the
shortened Baseline Construction Schedule is reasonable and the Agency and all other entities, public
and private, which interface with the project are able to support the provisions of the shortened
Baseline Construction Schedule. The Agency’s acceptance of a shortened duration project will be
confirmed through the execution of a contract change order revising the project duration and
implementing all contractual requirements including liquidated damages in accordance with the
revised duration.
6-1.2.10 Engineer’s Review. The Construction Schedule is subject to the review of the Engineer.

of the Notice to Proceed by the Engineer. If the Engineer determines that the Construction Schedule
does not meet the requirements of these specifications the Contractor shall correct the Construction
Schedule to meet these specifications and resubmit it to the Engineer. Failure of the Contractor to
obtain the Engineer’s determination that the initial Construction Schedule proposed by the Contractor
complies with the requirements of these special provisions within thirty (30) working days after the
date of the preconstruction meeting shall be grounds for termination of the contract per section 6-4.
Days used by the Engineer to review the initial Construction Schedule will not be included in the 30
working days.
-
The Engineer will review and return to the Contractor, with any comments, the Baseline Construction
Schedule within 15 working days of submittal. The Baseline Construction Schedule will be returned

3- LABOR CODE SECTION 1777.5
EMPLOYMENT OF PROPERLY REGISTERED APPRENTICES
Nothing in this chapter shall prevent the employment of properly registered apprentices upon public works.
Every such apprentice shall be paid the standard wage paid to apprentices under the regulations of the craft or trade at
which he or she is employed, and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is
registered.
Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards and written apprentice
agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3, are eligible to be employed on public
works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with the apprenticeship standards and
apprentice agreements under which he or she is training.
_-
When the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision, or any subcontractor
under him or her, in performing any of the work under the contract or subcontract, employs workers in any
apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor and subcontractor shall apply to the joint apprenticeship committee
administering the apprenticeship standards of the craft or trade in the area of the site of the public work for a certificate
approving the contractor or subcontractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of
apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, approval as established by the joint apprenticeship committee or
committees shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The joint apprenticeship committee
or committees, subsequent to approving the subject contractor or subcontractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of
apprentices to the contractor or subcontractor in order to comply with this section. Every contractor and subcontractor
shall submit contract award information to the applicable joint apprenticeship committee which shall include an estimate
of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices to be employed, and the
approximate dates the apprentices will be employed. There shall be an affirmative duty upon the joint apprenticeship
committee or committees administering the apprenticeship standards of the craft or trade in the area of the site of the
public work to ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities.
Contractors or subcontractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint
apprenticeship committees provided they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards. The ratio of work
performed by apprentices to journeymen who shall be employed in the craft or trade on the public work may be the ratio
stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the joint apprenticeship committee operates, but, except as
otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentices work for every five
hours of labor performed by a journeyman. However, the minimum ratio for the land surveyor classification shall not be
less than one apprentice for each five journeymen.
Any ratio shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman, or the higher standard stipulated by the
joint apprenticeship committee, is employed at the job site and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked
March 17,2000
BP-2
during the day by journeymen so employed, except for the land surveyor classification. The contractor shall employ
apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract. However, the contractor shall
endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the
same craft or trade are employed at the job site. Where an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular
craft or trade, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, upon application of a joint apprenticeship committee, may
order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification.
The contractor or subcontractor, if he or she is covered by this section, upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or
if he or she has been previously approved in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of
apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the apprenticeship standards. Upon proper showing by the contractor that he or
she employs apprentices in the craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less
than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman, or in the land surveyor
classification, one apprentice for each five journeymen, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate
exempting the contractor fiom the 1-to-5 hourly ratio as set forth in this section. This section shall not apply to contracts
of general contractors or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime
contractor, when the contracts of general contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand
dollars ($30,000) or 20 working days . Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40
hours per week, shall not be used to calculate the hourly ratio required by this section.
"Apprenticeable craft or trade," as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable
occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Apprenticeship Council. The joint apprenticeship
committee shall have the discretion to grant a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of
Apprenticeship, exempting a contractor fiom the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the
following conditions is met:
(a) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent
(b) The number of apprentices in training in such area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5 .
(c) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually
through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis, or on a local basis.
(d) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition which
would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large or if the specific
task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of such a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
When exemptions are granted to an organization which represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio
on a local or statewide basis the member contractors will not be required to submit individual applications for approval
to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
A contractor to whom the contract is awarded, or any subcontractor under him or her, who, in performing any of the
work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade and who is not
contributing to a fund or funds to administer and conduct the apprenticeship program in any craft or trade in the area of
the site of the public work, to which fund or funds other contractors in the area of the site of the public work are
contributing, shall contribute to the fund or hnds in each craft or trade in which he or she employs journeymen or
apprentices on the public work in the same amount or upon the same basis and in the same manner as the other
contractors do, but where the trust fund administrators are unable to accept the funds, contractors not signatory to the
trust agreement shall pay a like amount to the California Apprenticeship Council. The contractor or subcontractor may
add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. The Division of Labor Standards
Enforcement is authorized to enforce the payment of the contributions to the fund or funds as set forth in Section 227.
The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section. The
stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for all apprenticeable occupations with the prime
contractor.
All decisions of the joint apprenticeship committee under this section are subject to Section 3081.

commencing the performance of the work of this contract."
9- CULTURAL RESOURCES
In accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, (16 U.S.C. 470), the following procedures are
implemented to insure historic preservation and fair compensation to the Contractor for delays attendant to cultural
resources investigations.
In the event potential Historical, Architectural, Archeological, or Cultural Resources (herein after cultural
resources) are discovered during subsurface excavations at the site of construction, the following procedures shall be
instituted:
1) at the location of such potential cultural resources find.
The Engineer shall issue a "Stop Work Order" directing the Contractor to cease all construction operations
BP-4
March 17,2000
2) Such “Stop Work Order” shall be effective until such time as a qualified archeologist can be called to
assess the value of these potential cultural resources and make recommendations to the State Water Resources
Control Board Cultural Resources Officer. Any “Stop Work Order” shall contain the following:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
A clear description of the work to be suspended;
Any instructions regarding issuance of hrther orders by the Contractor for material services;
Guidance as the action to be taken on subcontracts;
Any suggestions to the Contractor as to minimization of his costs;
Estimated duration of the temporary suspension.
If the archeologist determines that the potential find is a bonafide cultural resource, at the direction of the State
Water Resources Control Board Cultural Resources Officer, the Engineer shall extend the duration of the “Stop
Work Order” in writing, and the Contractor shall suspend work at the location of the find.
Equitable adjustment of the construction contract shall be made in the following manner:
1) Time Extension
If the work temporarily suspended is on the “critical path”, the total number of days for which the suspension is in
effect shall be added to the number of allowable contract days.
If a portion of work at the time of such suspension is not on the “critical path”, but subsequently becomes work on
the critical path, the allowable contract time will be computed from the date such work is classified as on the critical
path.
2) Additional Compensation
If, as a result of a suspension of the work, the Contractor sustains a loss which could not have been avoided by his
judicious handling of forces, and equipment, or redirection of forces or equipment to perform other work on the
contract, there shall be paid to the Contractor an amount as determined by the Engineer to be fair and reasonable
compensation for the Contractor’s actual loss in accordance with the following:
a) Idle Time of Equipment
Compensation for equipment idle time will be determined on a force account (time and materials) basis, and shall
include the cost of extra moving of equipment and rental loss. The right-of-way delay factor for each classification of
equipment shown in the California Department of Transportation publication entitled, Equipment Rental Rates and
the General Prevailing Wage Rates, will be applied to any equipment rental rates.
b) Idle Time of Labor
Compensation for idle time of workers will be determined by the Engineer as “Labor” less any actual productivity
factor of this portion of the work force.
c) Increased Costs of Labor and Materials
Increased costs of labor and materials will be compensated only to the extent such increase was in fact caused by the
suspension, as determined by the Engineer.
Compensation for actual loss due to idle time of either equipment or labor shall not include markup for profit.
The hours for which compensation will be paid will be the actual normal working time during which such delay
condition exists, but will in no case exceed eight hours in any one day.
The days for which compensation will be paid shall be full or partial calendar days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays,
and legal holidays, during the existence of such delay.

CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTORS--AFFIRMATIVE ACTION REQUIREMENTS (in relevant part)
- Notice of requirement for Affirmative Action to ensure Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) by Executive Order
1 1246, as amended by Executive Order 11375.
I. The Offeror's or Bidder's attention is called to the "Equal Opportunity Clause" and the "Standard Federal Equal
Employment Specifications" set forth herein.
2. The goals and timetables for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the contractor's
aggregate workforce in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows:
Time- Goals for minority participation Goals for female participation
tables for each trade for each trade
For the duration of 16.9%
the Contract with the City
6.9%
(Contact SWRCB, Division of Clean Water Programs, at (916) 227-4586 for assistance with the minority goal and
timetables. E-mail <musialr@cwp.swrcb.ca.gov>: Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs' web site for
compliance issues and preaward registry is <http://www.dol.gov/dol/esdpublic/ofcp-erg>)
These goals are applicable to all the Contractor's construction work (whether or not it is Federal or federally
assisted) performed in the covered area. If the contractor performs construction work in a geographical area located
outside of the covered area, it shall apply the goals established for such geographical area where the work is actually
performed. With regard to this second area, the contractor also is subject to the goals for both its federally involved
and non-federally involved construction.
The Contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 CFR Part 60-4 shall be based on its
implementation of the Equal Opportunity Clause, specific affirmative action obligations required by the
specifications set forth in 4 1 CFR 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to meet the goals. The hours of minority and female
employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and
the contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects. The
transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from Contractor to Contractor or from project to project for the
sole purpose of meeting the Contractor's goals shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order and the
regulations in 41 CFR Part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured against the total work hours
performed.
3. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier for
construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification shall list the name, address and
telephone number of the subcontractor; employer identification number of the subcontractor; estimated dollar
amount of the subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the subcontract; and the geographical area in
which the subcontract is to be performed.
4. As used in this Notice, and in the contract resulting from this solicitation, the "covered area'' is (insert description
of the geographical areas where the contract is to be performed giving the state, county and city, if any).
5 60-4.3 Equal opportunity clauses (in relevant part)
Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract
Specifications (Executive Order 1 1246)
- 1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the solicitation from which this contract resulted;
BP-15
March 17,2000
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United States Department of
Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority; -..
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security number used on the Employer's Quarterly
Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
(i) Black (all persons having origins in any of the Black African racial groups not of Hispanic origin);
(ii) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American or other Spanish Culture
or origin, regardless of race);
(iii) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast
Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and
(iv) American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of North
America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and participation or community
identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the work involving any
construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these
specifications and the Notice which contains the applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is
set forth in the solicitations from which this contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60-4.5) in a Hometown Plan approved by the U.S.
Department of Labor in the covered area either individually or through an association, its affirmative action
obligations on all work in the Plan area (including goals and timetables) shall be in accordance with that Plan for
those trades which have unions participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation
in and compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown Plan. Each Contractor or Subcontractor participating
in an approved Plan is individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause, and to make a
good faith effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in each trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith
performance by other Contractors or Subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan does not excuse any covered
Contractor's or Subcontractor's failure to take good faith efforts to achieve the Plan goals and timetables.
-
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in paragraphs 7 a through p of
these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from which this contract resulted are expressed as
percentages of the total hours of employment and training of minority and female utilization the Contractor should
reasonably be able to achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area. Covered
Construction contractors performing construction work in geographical areas where they do not have a Federal or
federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals established for the geographical
area where the work is being performed. Goals are published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and
such notices may be obtained from any Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs office or from Federal
procurement contracting officers. The Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress in meeting its
goals in each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union with whom the
Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the Contractor's
obligations under these specifications, Executive Order 1 1246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the non-working training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in meeting the goals, such
apprentices and trainees must be employed by the Contractor during the training period, and the Contractor must
have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the
availability of employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs approved by the
_c- U.S. Department of Labor.

7. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment opportunity. The evaluation of
the Contractor's compliance with these specifications shall be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from
its actions. The Contractor shall document these efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as
extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and coercion at all sites, and in all
facilities at which the Contractor's employees are assigned to work. The Contractor, where possible, will assign
two or more women to each construction project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen,
superintendents, and other on-site supervisory personnel are aware of and carry out the Contractor's obligation to
maintain such a working environment, with specific attention to minority or female individuals working at such
sites or in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources, provide written notification to
minority and female recruitment sources and to community organizations when the Contractor or its unions have
employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each minority and female off-the-street
applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source or community organization and of
what action was taken with respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for
referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not employed by the Contractor,
this shall be documented in the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever additional actions the Contractor
may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or unions with which the Contractor has a
collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the Contractor a minority person or woman sent by the
Contractor, or when the Contractor has other information that the union referral process has impeded the
Contractor's efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for the area which expressly
include minorities and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee programs relevant to
the Contractor's employment needs, especially those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor.
The Contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the sources compiled under 7b above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions and training programs and
requesting their cooperation in assisting the Contractor in meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any
policy manual and collective bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report,
etc.; by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority and female employees
at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at
each location where construction work is performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations under these
specifications with all employees having any responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other
employment decisions including specific review of these items with onsite supervisory personnel such as
Superintendents, General Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A written
record shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons attending, subject
matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising in the news media,
specifically including minority and female news media, and providing written notification to and discussing the
Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors and Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates
doing business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and community organizations, to schools
with minority and female students and to minority and female recruitment and training organizations serving the
Contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance
of applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment source, the Contractor shall send written
notification to organizations such as the above, describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used
in the selection process.
March 17,2000
BP- 17
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons and women and, where
reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation employment to minority and female youth both on the site
and in other areas of a Contractor's work force.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
1. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and female personnel for
promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training,
etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments and other personnel practices, do not have
a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the
EEO policy and the Contractor's obligations under these specifications are being camed out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are Non-Segregated except that separate or single-user toilet and
necessary changing facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between the sexes.
0. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from minority and female
construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female contractor
associations and other business associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance under the Contractor's
EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in fulfilling one or more of their
affirmative action obligations (7a through p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union,
contractor-community, or other similar group of which the contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted
as fulfilling any one or more of its obligations under 7a through p of these Specifications provided that the contractor
actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure that the group has a positive impact on the
employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensures that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected
in the Contractor's minority and female workforce participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals
and timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates the effectiveness of actions taken on
behalf of the Contractor. The obligation to comply, however, is the Contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill
an obligation shall not be a defense for the Contractor's noncompliance.
9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been established. The Contractor,
however, is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority groups,
both male and female, and all women, both minority and non-minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in
violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner (for example,
even though the Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is underutilized).
10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action standards to discriminate against any
person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
1 1. The Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with any person or firm debarred from Government
contracts pursuant to Executive Order 1 1246.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these specifications and of the Equal
Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination and cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed
or ordered pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of
Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any Contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and penalties shall be
in violation of these specifications and Executive Order 1 1246, as amended.
13. The Contractor, in hlfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement specific affirmative
action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in paragraph 7 of these specifications, so as to
achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply
March 17,2000
BP-18
with the requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications, the Director
shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
- 14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related activity to ensure that
the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as may be required
by the Government and to keep records. Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address,
telephone numbers, construction trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when assigned, social
security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status,
hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and locations at which the work was performed. Records
shall be maintained in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that existing records
satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required to maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other laws which establish
different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area
residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block
Grant Program).

Hydraulic testing of recycled water pipelines shall be performed in accordance with the latest
edition of the Carlsbad Municipal Water District Reclamation Rules and Regulations for
Construction of Reclaimed Water Mains. Before starting hydrostatic testing, all pipelines
shall be flushed or blown out as appropriate. The Contractor shall test all pipelines either in
sections or as a unit. No section of the pipeline shall be tested until all field-placed concrete
or mortar has attained an age of 14 days. The test shall be made by closing valves when
available, or by placing temporary bulkheads in the pipe and filling the line slowlywith water.
The Contractor shall be responsible for ascertaining that all test bulkheads are suitably
restrained to resist the thrust of the test pressure without damage to, or movement of, the
adjacent pipe. Any unharnessed sleeve-type couplings, expansion joints, or other sliding
joints shall be restrained or suitably anchored prior to the test, to avoid movement and
damage to piping and equipment. Backfilling shall be completed except at joints. The
Contractor shall provide sufficient temporary air tappings in the pipelines to allow for
evacuation of all entrapped air in each pipe segment to be tested. After completion of the
tests, such taps shall be permanently plugged. Care shall be taken to see that all air vents
are open during filling.
The pipeline shall be filled at a rate that will not cause any surges or exceed the rate at
which the air can be released through the air valves at a reasonable velocity and all the air
within the pipeline shall be properly purged. Maximum filling rate shall be per CMWD
Standards. After the pipeline or section thereof has been filled, it shall be allowed to stand
under a slight pressure for at least 48 hours to allow the concrete or mortar lining, as
applicable, to absorb water and to allow the escape of air from any air pockets. During this
period, bulkheads, valves, and connections shall be examined for leaks. If leaks are found,
corrective measures satisfactory to the Engineer shall be taken.
The hydrostatic test shall consist of holding the test pressure on the pipeline for a period of
not less than 4 hours. The test pressure for shall be at least 150 percent of the pipe
pressure class indicated measured at the lowest point of the pipeline section being tested,
and no less than 100 percent of the pipe pressure class at the highest elevation. All visible
leaks shall be repaired in a manner acceptable to the Engineer.. Maximum test pressure for
Class 200 PVC pipe shall be 250 psi.
The maximum allowable leakage for distribution and transmission pipelines shall be as
indicated in CMWD Standards. In the case of a pipeline that fails to pass the prescribed
leakage test, the Contractor shall determine the cause of the leakage, shall take corrective
measures necessary to repair the leaks, and shall again test the pipeline.
DISINFECTION OF RECYCLED WATER PIPELINES
General: All recycled water pipelines except those appurtenant to hydraulic structures shall
be disinfected in accordance with the requirements of ANSVAWWA C651 using the
Continuous-Feed Method as modified herein. Preliminary and final flushing shall be done at
the ends of mains that have been hydrostatically tested.
Chlorination: A chlorine-water mixture shall be uniformly introduced into the pipeline by
means of a solution-feed chlorinating device. The chlorine solution shall be introduced at
one end of the pipeline through a tap in such a manner that as the pipeline is filled with
water, the dosage applied to the water entering the pipe shall be approximately 50 mg/l.
Care shall be taken to prevent the strong chlorine solution in the line being disinfected from
flowing back into the line supplying the water.

pipeline for at least 24 hours. After the chlorine-treated water has been retained for the
required time, the free chlorine residual at the pipeline extremities and at other
representative points shall be at least 25 mg/l.
Repetition of Test: The disinfection testing procedure shall be repeated if the initial testsfail
to produce satisfactory results. Two consecutive satisfactory test results shall be required
after any unsatisfactory test. The tablet method shall not be used for repeated disinfection.
Chlorinating Valves: During the process of chlorinating the pipelines, all valves and other
appurtenances shall be operated while the pipeline is filled with the heavily chlorinated
water.
Final Flushing: Final Flushing shall be done by the Contractor after he has been notified of a
satisfactory chlorine residual test by the Agency. After the applicable retention period, the
heavily chlorinated water shall be flushed from the pipeline until chlorine measurements
show that the concentration in the water leaving the pipeline is no higher than that generally
prevailing in the system or is acceptable for the intended use. If there is any question that
the chlorinated discharge will cause damage to the environment, a reducing agent shall be
applied to the water to neutralize thoroughly the chlorine residual remaining in the water at
no additional cost to the Agency.
Disinfection of Connections: Pipe and appurtenances used to connect the newly installed
water main shall also be disinfected in accordance with AWWA C651.
Neutralization of Chlorinated Water: Neutralizing and disposing of chlorinated water shall be
in accordance with Appendix "B" of AWWA Standard C651 as the water exits the pipe.
Contractor shall perform all necessary tests to ensure and verify that total residual chlorine
effluent limitations are not exceeded. The Engineer will review the effluent chlorine residual
test results to ensure conformance with the limitations. Total residual chlorine limits for
discharge from testing of pipelines to surface waters of the San Diego Region are as follows:
30-day average - 0.002 mg/L
Average daily maximum - 0.008 mg/L
Instantaneous maximum - 0.02 mg/L
BACTERIOLOGICAL TESTING OF DISINFECTED RECYCLED WATER PIPELINES
The Contractor shall contract with a State-certified sampling laboratory to take
bacteriological samples, transport the samples to the laboratory, and perform bacteriological
testing as specified herein. Collect two sets of samples at least 24 hours apart after
completion of final flushing as indicated above. Samples will be taken at locations indicated
in ANSVAWWA C651 and will be tested for coliform organisms and standard plate count
according to the latest edition of the Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and
Wastewater. Sampling methods including tie-ins and connections by spray or swab shall be
in accordance with ANSVAWWA C651. Laboratory costs of initial testing will be the
Contractor's responsibility.
If disinfection fails to produce satisfactory bacteriological counts, the pipe shall be reflushed
and will be resampled and retested. Satisfactory bacteriological counts are no positive
samples for coliform bacteria and 500 colony forming units/mL or less for heterotrophic plate
count. If counts from analysis of the second samples exceed the criteria in Standard
