WAGE RATES

Pursuant to Section 1770 and the following sections of the California Labor Code, the contractor shall pay not less than the prevailing rate of per diem wages as determined by the California Department of Industrial Relations for projects in Monterey County. COMPLETION OF WORK

Processing equipment deliveries are scheduled for early July 2016. The following items define the process of construction phases from Notice to Proceed up to July 2016 delivery of the process equipment material(s) and through the balance of the construction.

• Existing equipment within the MRF Building will be removed and recycled for preparation of new construction and new equipment installation(s). This removal of equipment and associated infrastructure (such as electrical, mechanical, fire sprinklers, etc.) will be procured as a separate contract between MRWMD and prospective contractors. This will be separate from this contract and bidding process. The timeline for this occurrence is estimated between late April and early June 2016.

• Cleaning and Painting of building interior will be procured as a separate contract between MRWMD and prospective bidders. The timeline for this work is estimated between July and August. This process will be phased from west to east inside the building, which will allow the MRF Improvement and process equipment deliveries to occur beforehand and concurrently as needed.

• Existing concrete floor improvement in MRF Building will be performed. This scope of work will be procured as a separate contract between MRMWD and prospective bidders. The timeline for this work is estimated between late June and early July 2016.

• All MRF Improvement slab revisions i.e. pits and special foundations and underground utility work must be completed in phases moving west to east, with the west end required for completion before July 2016; to allow for initial installation of processing equipment. The process equipment will be installed in phases, starting with west end and moving east; the timeline is estimated July through October 2016. It shall be noted that the process equipment will require special foundations throughout the floor area beneath the proposed footprint of the equipment. This design of foundations will be a separate permit coordinated between MRWMD, Design Team, and Process Equipment Vendor. The foundation construction work may be procured separately by MRWMD, but may also be offered to the bidding contractor for this bid process, and will be provided as an addendum for pricing and review by MRWMD.

• The contract work for the Canopy, underground utilities, infrastructure beneath the canopy slab, associated grading and surfaces, and adjacent retaining walls must be completed by August 2016 to allow Owner use of the canopy during interior improvements of the MRF Building.

• Electrical power for the process equipment is needed by July 2016, including power feed from on-site power generation plant to proposed transformer and switchgear. MRWMD will be

procuring the new transformer, transformer vault, and switchgear as a separate contract due to the long lead procurement. The bidding contractor will be required to install the procured equipment and infrastructure.

• Electrical MCC cabinets proposed in the existing electrical room will be required for turn-on by July 25.

• Lighting around and under processing equipment will need to be coordinated after processing equipment is installed. This level of effort will be required by contractors to coordinate with processing equipment vendor regarding schedule for installation of lighting. A proposed amount of light fixtures is specified in the drawings provided in this bid, but quantity may increase after equipment is installed. A Unit Price per fixture is included in the Project Manual to provide a unit cost for additional fixtures added after this bid process.

• Office Improvements and second floor expansion is estimated to occur between early July and end of August 2016. These improvements will require coordination of contractor(s) to work with MRWMD staff and temporary facilitation of operations during the construction of the Canopy, MRF, and Office improvements.

PART 5 PENALTY FOR DELAY

CONTRACTOR shall commence Work immediately upon written notice to proceed by OWNER and shall complete all contract work necessary to allow process equipment installation to occur once deliveries begin, including underground utilities, infrastructure, and etc. This work must be completed as stated as “maximum” in above Contract Time in order to avoid Liquidated Damages as stated in Section 008000 “Supplemental Conditions” and 004113 “Bid Form”. The Owner and the Contractor agree that in the event these contract milestones are not achieved in the time period required in this Agreement, it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting from such delay, therefore, Contractor agrees to pay to Owner as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of FIVE HUNDRED ($500.00) Dollars per day for each day of delay when founded by Owner to affect on-going operations, which sum represents a reasonable endeavor by the parties hereto to estimate a fair compensation for the foreseeable losses that might result from a delay in achieving this milestone by Contractor. Upon contract award, the Owner, Architect, Owner’s Representative and Contractor will meet to define and document in writing precisely what must be completed for these milestones. The process

equipment deliveries are critical to the MRWMD operational constraints. If Liquidated Damages are invoked for these milestones they will continue to accrue until these milestones are complete independent of any other schedule milestones or liquidated damages. It is further agreed by and between Owner and Contractor that in the event that the Substantial Completion of all remaining work is not achieved in the time period specified by this Contract (within one hundred and 28 (128) calendar days after the Notice-to-Proceed is issued by the MRWMD), it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting from such delay and, therefore, Contractor agrees to pay to Owner as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of FIVE HUNDRED ($500.00) Dollars per day for each day of delay, which sum represents a reasonable endeavor by the parties hereto to estimate a fair compensation for the foreseeable losses that might result from a delay in achieving the Substantial Completion by the Contractor.

It is further agreed by and between Owner and Contractor that in the event final completion is not achieved within thirty (153) days of Substantial Completion, Contractor agrees to pay Owner as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the sum of FIVE HUNDRED ($500.00) Dollars per day for each day of delay, which sum represents a reasonable endeavor by the parties hereto to estimate a fair compensation for the foreseeable losses that result from a delay in final completion of the project to the Contractor.
