This change order zeros out these items. Other items have been adjusted to account for quantities not installed for the project. These items include some pavement markings that if placed would have been removed within a couple of months and some fence that was scheduled to be removed and replaced but was more beneficial to leave in place. This is the final change order for the construction of this project. Cost Analysis: There are no unit cost changes associated with this change order. Public Service Committee Meeting 11/8/2016 1:00 PM CONTRACT MODIFICATION #5 – McCARTHY IMPROVEMENT COMPANY – REHABILITATE AIR CARRIER AND GENERAL AVIATION APRON Department:Augusta Regional Airport Presenter:Herbert Judon Caption:Request the Augusta Commission approve McCarthy Improvement Company Contract Modification #5 - Rehabilitate Air Carrier and General Aviation Apron, as approved by the Augusta Aviation Commission at their October 20, 2016 meeting. Background:The primary focus of this project is the reconstruction of the pavement and subgrade for the air carrier and general aviation apron. This project reconstructed the apron on the east and south sides of the commercial service terminal and on the east side of the FBO. The existing asphalt pavement was replaced with concrete pavement which should reduce the maintenance cost for the Airport moving forward. In addition to this work, the project also provides improvements for the Airport access road located to the south of the fuel farm, which also provides access to the FBO including the installation of a new slide gate that is used by the Airport fuel trucks. Analysis:Contract Modification #5 provides for the final adjustments in quantities and for items that have been identified during the course of construction that will enhance the final project. This contract modification will reduce the overall project cost by $11,139.63. The majority of these savings come from underruns of project quantities for the airfield markings. The changes identified will not have an impact on contract time. The unit prices from the original contract were applied to the revised quantities. Financial Impact:Reduces the original contract by $11,139.63. Alternatives:Deny request. Recommendation:Approve request.

Background:The primary focus of this project is the construction of General Perry Smith Parkway on the south side of the Augusta Regional Airport to provide access to the southeast side of the Airport, an area identified for future Airport facility relocation and also future potential business development. The Project consists of constructing approximately 3,600 feet of roadway and utility corridor. Approximately two-thirds of the roadway is four lanes and the remainder is two lanes. The Project also includes roadway lighting, pavement marking, signage, landscaping, and drainage improvements including installation of a large culvert ditch crossing, a retention basin and associated storm sewer to direct rain water to the new retention basin. The project is in its final stages of construction as the Contractor is finishing punch-list items. Analysis:Contract Modification #6 provides for additional sod that has become necessary due to persons driving on the sod which represents circumstances outside of the Contractor’s control. The contract modification will increase the project cost by $450.36. This represents the final adjustments in quantities for the project. The changes identified will not have an impact on contract time. The unit prices from the original contract were applied to the revised quantities. Financial Impact:Increases the contract by a total of $450.36. Alternatives:Deny request. Recommendation:Approve request.

Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, that the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classification and wage rates conformed under (1)(ii) of this section) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH-1321) shall be posted at all times by the Contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can easily be seen by the workers. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 26 (ii)(A) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination. The contracting officer shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits therefore only when the following criteria have been met: (1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; and (2) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and (3) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination. (B) If the Contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken shall be sent by the contracting officer to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, D.C. 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary. (C) In the event the Contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), the contracting officer shall refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary. (D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to subparagraphs (1)(ii) (B) or (C) of this paragraph, shall be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification. (iii) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the Contractor shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof. (iv) If the Contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the Contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, provided, that the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the Contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the Contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.

The Federal Aviation Administration or the Owner shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld from the Contractor under this contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime Contractor, or any other Federally-assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime Contractor, so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the Contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of work, all or part of the wages required by the contract, the FAA may, after written notice to the Contractor, Owner, or applicant, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. 3. Payrolls and basic records. (i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the Contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work. Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the Contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual costs incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs. (ii)(A) The Contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to the FAA if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the Contractor will submit the payrolls to the applicant or Owner, as the case may be, for transmission to the FAA. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i), except that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on weekly transmittals. Instead the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee (e.g. , the last four digits of the employee's social security number). The required weekly payroll information may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH–347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division Web site at http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh347instr.htm or its successor site. The prime Contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors. Contractors and subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number and current address of each covered worker, and shall provide them upon request to the FAA if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the Contractor will submit Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 28 them to the applicant or Owner, as the case may be, for transmission to the FAA, the Contractor, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or audit of compliance with prevailing wage requirements. It is not a violation of this section for a prime Contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security numbers to the prime Contractor for its own records, without weekly submission to the sponsoring government agency (or the applicant, or Owner). (B) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance," signed by the Contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following: (1) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under § 5.5(a)(3)(ii) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5, the appropriate information is being maintained under § 5.5 (a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5, and that such information is correct and complete; (2) That each laborer and mechanic (including each helper, apprentice and trainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations 29 CFR Part 3; (3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract. (C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the "Statement of Compliance" required by paragraph (3)(ii)(B) of this section. (D) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the Contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18 and Section 231 of Title 31 of the United States Code. (iii) The Contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph (3)(i) of this section available for inspection, copying or transcription by authorized representatives of the Owner, the FAA or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job. If the Contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the Contractor, applicant, or Owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12. 4. Apprentices and Trainees. (i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 29 Agency recognized by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the Contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the Contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR Part 30. 5. Compliance with the Copeland Act Requirements. The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR Part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract. 6. Subcontracts. The Contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses contained in 29 CFR Part 5.5(a)(1) through (10) and such other clauses as the FAA may by appropriate instructions require, and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime Contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR Part 5.5. 7. Contract Termination: Debarment. A breach of the contract clauses in paragraph 1 through 10 of this section may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12. 8. Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act Requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR Parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract. 9. Disputes Concerning Labor Standards. Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR Parts 5, 6 and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the Contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives. 10. Certification of Eligibility. (i) By entering into this contract, the Contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an interest in the Contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1). (ii) No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1). (iii) The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Criminal Code, 18 U.S.C. 1001. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 31 EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY During the performance of this contract, the Contractor agrees as follows: 1. The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The Contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. 2. The Contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive considerations for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 3. The Contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which it has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of the Contractor's commitments under this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment. 4. The Contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, as amended, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor. 5. The Contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to its books, records, and accounts by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders. 6. In the event of the Contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled, terminated or suspended in whole or in part and the Contractor may be declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction contracts in accordance with procedure authorized in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law. 7. The Contractor will include the portion of the sentence immediately preceding paragraph (1) and the provisions of paragraphs (1) through (7) in every subcontract or purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The Contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provision, including sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 32 a result of such direction by the administering agency the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States. STANDARD FEDERAL EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS 1. As used in these specifications: a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the solicitation from which this contract resulted; b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), U.S. 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: (1) Black (all) persons having origins in any of the Black African racial groups not of Hispanic origin); (2) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race); (3) 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 (4) 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 shall 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 18.7a through 18.7p 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 Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 33 contractors performing construction work in a geographical area 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 11246 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 shall be employed by the Contractor during the training period and the Contractor shall have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability of employment opportunities. Trainees shall be trained pursuant to training programs approved by the 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 onsite 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 therefore 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 female 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 Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 34 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 Contractor’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 a 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. 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 workforce. k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so under 41 CFR Part 60-3. l. 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 carried 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. o. 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. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 35 p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisor's 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 (18.7a through 18.7p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor union, contractor community, or other similar groups of which the Contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling any one or more of its obligations under 18.7a through 18.7p 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, if the 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. 11. The Contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm debarred from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246. 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 11246, as amended. 13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in paragraph 18.7 of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply 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’s 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 number, 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, Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 36 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, Contractor 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). CERTIFICATION OF NON-SEGREGATED FACILITIES The federally-assisted construction Contractor certifies that it does not maintain or provide, for its employees, any segregated facilities at any of its establishments and that it does not permit its employees to perform its services at any location, under its control, where segregated facilities are maintained. The federally-assisted construction Contractor agrees that a breach of this certification is a violation of the Equal Opportunity Clause in this contract. As used in this certification, the term "segregated facilities" means any waiting rooms, work areas, restrooms, and washrooms, restaurants and other eating areas, time clocks, locker rooms and other storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas, transportation, and housing facilities provided for employees which are segregated by explicit directives or are, in fact, segregated on the basis of race, color, religion, or national origin because of habit, local custom, or any other reason. The federally-assisted construction Contractor agrees that (except where it has obtained identical certifications from proposed subcontractors for specific time periods) it will obtain identical certifications from proposed subcontractors prior to the award of subcontracts exceeding $10,000 which are not exempt from the provisions of the Equal Opportunity Clause and that it will retain such certifications in its files. TERMINATION OF CONTRACT a. The Owner may, by written notice, terminate this contract in whole or in part at any time, either for the Owner's convenience or because of failure to fulfill the contract obligations. Upon receipt of such notice services shall be immediately discontinued (unless the notice directs otherwise) and all materials as may have been accumulated in performing this contract, whether completed or in progress, delivered to the Owner. b. If the termination is for the convenience of the Owner, an equitable adjustment in the contract price shall be made, but no amount shall be allowed for anticipated profit on unperformed services. c. If the termination is due to failure to fulfill the Contractor's obligations, the Owner may take over the Work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise. In such case, the Contractor shall be liable to the Owner for any additional cost occasioned to the Owner thereby. d. If, after notice of termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the Contractor had not so failed, the termination shall be deemed to have been effected for the Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 37 convenience of the Owner.

The rights and remedies of the Owner provided in this clause are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under this contract. BREACH OF CONTRACT TERMS Any violation or breach of the terms of this contract on the part of the Contractor or subcontractor may result in the suspension or termination of this contract or such other action which may be necessary to enforce the rights of the parties under this contract. The duties and obligations imposed by the Contract Documents and the rights and remedies available thereunder are in addition to, and not a limitation of, any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law. CLEAN AIR AND WATER POLLUTION CONTROL Contractor and subcontractors agree: a. That any facility to be used in the performance of the contract or subcontract or to benefit from the contract is not listed on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) List of Violating Facilities; b. To comply with all the requirements of Section 114 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 1857 et seq. and Section 308 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq. relating to inspection, monitoring, entry, reports, and information, as well as all other requirements specified in Section 114 and Section 308 of the Acts, respectively, and all other regulations and guidelines issued thereunder; c. That, as a condition for the award of this contract, the Contractor or subcontractor will notify the awarding official of the receipt of any communication from the EPA indicating that a facility to be used for the performance of or benefit from the contract is under consideration to be listed on the EPA List of Violating Facilities; d. To include or cause to be included in any construction contract or subcontract which exceeds $ 100,000 the aforementioned criteria and requirements. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT REQUIREMENTS 1. Overtime Requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 38 2. Violation; Liability for Unpaid Wages; Liquidated Damages.

In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph 1 above, in the sum of $10 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph 1 above. 3. Withholding for Unpaid Wages and Liquidated Damages. The Federal Aviation Administration or the Owner shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from any monies payable on account of work performed by the Contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime Contractor, or any other Federally-assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same prime Contractor, such sums as may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such Contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause set forth in paragraph 2 above. 4.

The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate). Union Rate Identifiers A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" or "UAVG" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014. Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate. Survey Rate Identifiers Classifications listed under the "SU" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 41 Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier. Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. Union Average Rate Identifiers Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier. A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based. ---------------------------------------------------------------- WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS 1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be: * an existing published wage determination * a survey underlying a wage determination * a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter * a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in article 2.) and 3.) should be followed. With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to: Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7). Write to: Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 42 Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue. 3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to: Administrative Review Board U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 4.) All decisions by the Administrative Review Board are final. ================================================================ END OF GENERAL DECISION Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 10 DEFINITION OF TERMS Whenever the following terms are used in these specifications, in the contract, or in any documents or other instruments pertaining to construction where these specifications govern, the intent and meaning shall be interpreted as follows: 10-01 AASHTO.

Should the aggregate amount of altered work exceed the 25% limitation hereinbefore specified, such excess altered work shall be covered by supplemental agreement. If the Owner and the Contractor are unable to agree on a unit adjustment for any contract item that requires a supplemental agreement, the Owner reserves the right to terminate the contract with respect to the item and make other arrangements for its completion. Supplemental agreements shall be approved by the FAA and shall include all applicable Federal contract provisions for procurement and contracting required under AIP. Supplemental agreements shall also require consent of the Contractor’s surety and separate performance and payment bonds. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 40-03 Omitted items. The Engineer may, in the Owner’s best interest, omit from the work any contract item, except major contract items. Major contract items may be omitted by a supplemental agreement. Such omission of contract items shall not invalidate any other contract provision or requirement. Should a contract item be omitted or otherwise ordered to be non-performed, the Contractor shall be paid for all work performed toward completion of such item prior to the date of the order to omit such item. Payment for work performed shall be in accordance with the subsection 90-04 titled PAYMENT FOR OMITTED ITEMS of Section 90. 40-04 Extra work. Should acceptable completion of the contract require the Contractor to perform an item of work for which no basis of payment has been provided in the original contract or previously issued change orders or supplemental agreements, the same shall be called “Extra Work.” Extra Work that is within the general scope of the contract shall be covered by written change order. Change orders for such Extra Work shall contain agreed unit prices for performing the change order work in accordance with the requirements specified in the order, and shall contain any adjustment to the contract time that, in the Engineer’s opinion, is necessary for completion of such Extra Work. When determined by the Engineer to be in the Owner’s best interest, the Engineer may order the Contractor to proceed with Extra Work as provided in the subsection 90-05 titled PAYMENT FOR EXTRA WORK of Section 90. Extra Work that is necessary for acceptable completion of the project, but is not within the general scope of the work covered by the original contract shall be covered by a Supplemental Agreement as defined in the subsection 10-48 titled SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT of Section 10. Any claim for payment of Extra Work that is not covered by written agreement (change order or supplemental agreement) shall be rejected by the Owner. 40-05 Maintenance of traffic.

All existing structures encountered within the established lines, grades, or grading sections shall be removed by the Contractor, unless such existing structures are otherwise specified to be relocated, adjusted up or down, salvaged, abandoned in place, reused in the work or to remain in place. The cost of removing such existing structures shall not be measured or paid for directly, but shall be included in the various contract items. Should the Contractor encounter an existing structure (above or below ground) in the work for which the disposition is not indicated on the plans, the Engineer shall be notified prior to disturbing such structure. The disposition of existing structures so encountered shall be immediately determined by the Engineer in accordance with the provisions of the contract. Except as provided in the subsection 40-07 titled RIGHTS IN AND USE OF MATERIALS FOUND IN THE WORK of this section, it is intended that all existing materials or structures that may be encountered (within the lines, grades, or grading sections established for completion of the work) shall be used in the work as otherwise provided for in the contract and shall remain the property of the Owner when so used in the work. 40-07 Rights in and use of materials found in the Work. Should the Contractor encounter any material such as (but not restricted to) sand, stone, gravel, slag, or concrete slabs within the Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 established lines, grades, or grading sections, the use of which is intended by the terms of the contract to be either embankment or waste, the Contractor may at its option either: a. Use such material in another contract item, providing such use is approved by the Engineer and is in conformance with the contract specifications applicable to such use; or, b. Remove such material from the site, upon written approval of the Engineer; or c. Use such material for the Contractor’s own temporary construction on site; or, d. Use such material as intended by the terms of the contract. Should the Contractor wish to exercise option a., b., or c., the Contractor shall request the Engineer’s approval in advance of such use. Should the Engineer approve the Contractor’s request to exercise option a., b., or c., the Contractor shall be paid for the excavation or removal of such material at the applicable contract price. The Contractor shall replace, at its own expense, such removed or excavated material with an agreed equal volume of material that is acceptable for use in constructing embankment, backfills, or otherwise to the extent that such replacement material is needed to complete the contract work. The Contractor shall not be charged for use of such material used in the work or removed from the site. Should the Engineer approve the Contractor’s exercise of option a., the Contractor shall be paid, at the applicable contract price, for furnishing and installing such material in accordance with requirements of the contract item in which the material is used. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall make no claim for delays by reason of its exercise of option a., b., or c. The Contractor shall not excavate, remove, or otherwise disturb any material, structure, or part of a structure which is located outside the lines, grades, or grading sections established for the Work, except where such excavation or removal is provided for in the contract, plans, or specifications. 40-08 Final cleanup. Upon completion of the work and before acceptance and final payment will be made, the Contractor shall remove from the site all machinery, equipment, surplus and discarded materials, rubbish, temporary structures, and stumps or portions of trees. The Contractor shall cut all brush and woods within the limits indicated and shall leave the site in a neat and presentable condition.

Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 END OF SECTION 40 SECTION 50 CONTROL OF WORK 50-01 Authority of the Engineer. The Engineer shall decide any and all questions which may arise as to the quality and acceptability of materials furnished, work performed, and as to the manner of performance and rate of progress of the work. The Engineer shall decide all questions that may arise as to the interpretation of the specifications or plans relating to the work. The Engineer shall determine the amount and quality of the several kinds of work performed and materials furnished which are to be paid for the under contract. The Engineer does not have the authority to accept pavements that do not conform to FAA specification requirements. 50-02 Conformity with plans and specifications. All work and all materials furnished shall be in reasonably close conformity with the lines, grades, grading sections, cross-sections, dimensions, material requirements, and testing requirements that are specified (including specified tolerances) in the contract, plans or specifications. If the Engineer finds the materials furnished, work performed, or the finished product not within reasonably close conformity with the plans and specifications but that the portion of the work affected will, in his or her opinion, result in a finished product having a level of safety, economy, durability, and workmanship acceptable to the Owner, the Engineer will advise the Owner of his or her determination that the affected work be accepted and remain in place. In this event, the Engineer will document the determination and recommend to the Owner a basis of acceptance that will provide for an adjustment in the contract price for the affected portion of the work. The Engineer’s determination and recommended contract price adjustments will be based on sound engineering judgment and such tests or retests of the affected work as are, in the Engineer’s opinion, needed. Changes in the contract price shall be covered by contract change order or supplemental agreement as applicable. If the Engineer finds the materials furnished, work performed, or the finished product are not in reasonably close conformity with the plans and specifications and have resulted in an unacceptable finished product, the affected work or materials shall be removed and replaced or otherwise corrected by and at the expense of the Contractor in accordance with the Engineer’s written orders. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 For the purpose of this subsection, the term “reasonably close conformity” shall not be construed as waiving the Contractor’s responsibility to complete the work in accordance with the contract, plans, and specifications. The term shall not be construed as waiving the Engineer’s responsibility to insist on strict compliance with the requirements of the contract, plans, and specifications during the Contractor’s execution of the work, when, in the Engineer’s opinion, such compliance is essential to provide an acceptable finished portion of the work. For the purpose of this subsection, the term “reasonably close conformity” is also intended to provide the Engineer with the authority, after consultation with the FAA, to use sound engineering judgment in his or her determinations as to acceptance of work that is not in strict conformity, but will provide a finished product equal to or better than that intended by the requirements of the contract, plans and specifications. The Engineer will not be responsible for the Contractor’s means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of construction or the safety precautions incident thereto. 50-03 Coordination of contract, plans, and specifications. The contract, plans, specifications, and all referenced standards cited are essential parts of the contract requirements. A requirement occurring in one is as binding as though occurring in all. They are intended to be complementary and to describe and provide for a complete work. In case of discrepancy, calculated dimensions will govern over scaled dimensions; contract Technical Specifications shall govern over contract General Provisions, Plans, cited standards for materials or testing, and cited Advisory Circulars (ACs); contract General Provisions shall govern over Plans, cited standards for materials or testing, and cited ACs; Plans shall govern over cited standards for materials or testing and cited ACs. If any paragraphs contained in the Special Provisions conflict with General Provisions or Technical Specifications, the Special Provisions shall govern. From time to time, discrepancies within cited testing standards occur due to the timing of the change, edits, and/or replacement of the standards. If the Contractor discovers any apparent discrepancy within standard test methods, the Contractor shall immediately ask the Engineer for an interpretation and decision, and such decision shall be final. 50-04 Cooperation of Contractor.

As provided in the subsection 70-04 titled RESTORATION OF SURFACES DISTURBED BY OTHERS of this section, the Contractor shall cooperate with the owner of any public or private utility service, FAA or NOAA, or a utility service of another government agency that may be authorized by the owner to construct, reconstruct or maintain such utility services or facilities during the progress of the work. In addition, the Contractor shall control their operations to prevent the unscheduled interruption of such utility services and facilities. To the extent that such public or private utility services, FAA, or NOAA facilities, or utility services of another governmental agency are known to exist within the limits of the contract work, the approximate locations have been indicated on the plans. It is understood and agreed that the Owner does not guarantee the accuracy or the completeness of the location information relating to existing utility services, facilities, or structures that may be shown on the plans or encountered in the work. Any inaccuracy or omission in such information shall not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to protect such existing features from damage or unscheduled interruption of service. It is further understood and agreed that the Contractor shall, upon execution of the contract, notify the owners of all utility services or other facilities of his or her plan of operations. Such notification shall be in writing addressed to THE PERSON TO CONTACT as provided in this subsection and subsection 70-04 titled RESTORATION OF SURFACES DISTURBED BY OTHERS of this section. A copy of each notification shall be given to the Engineer. In addition to the general written notification provided, it shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to keep such individual owners advised of changes in their plan of operations that would affect such owners. Prior to beginning the work in the general vicinity of an existing utility service or facility, the Contractor shall again notify each such owner of their plan of operation. If, in the Contractor’s opinion, the owner’s assistance is needed to locate the utility service or facility or the presence of Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 a representative of the owner is desirable to observe the work, such advice should be included in the notification. Such notification shall be given by the most expeditious means to reach the utility owner’s PERSON TO CONTACT no later than two normal business days prior to the Contractor’s commencement of operations in such general vicinity. The Contractor shall furnish a written summary of the notification to the Engineer. The Contractor’s failure to give the two days’ notice shall be cause for the Owner to suspend the Contractor’s operations in the general vicinity of a utility service or facility. Where the outside limits of an underground utility service have been located and staked on the ground, the Contractor shall be required to use hand excavation methods within 3 feet (1 m) of such outside limits at such points as may be required to ensure protection from damage due to the Contractor’s operations. Should the Contractor damage or interrupt the operation of a utility service or facility by accident or otherwise, the Contractor shall immediately notify the proper authority and the Engineer and shall take all reasonable measures to prevent further damage or interruption of service. The Contractor, in such events, shall cooperate with the utility service or facility owner and the Engineer continuously until such damage has been repaired and service restored to the satisfaction of the utility or facility owner. The Contractor shall bear all costs of damage and restoration of service to any utility service or facility due to their operations whether due to negligence or accident.

Any damage to FAA cables, access roads, or FAA facilities during construction caused by the Contractor’s equipment or personnel whether by negligence or accident will require the Contractor to repair or replace the damaged cables, access road, or FAA facilities to FAA requirements. The Contractor shall not bear the cost to repair damage to underground facilities or utilities improperly located by the FAA. e. If the Project work requires the cutting or splicing of FAA owned cables, the FAA Point-of- Contact shall be contacted a minimum of 72 hours prior to the time the cable work commences. The FAA reserves the right to have a FAA representative on site to observe the splicing of the cables as a condition of acceptance. All cable splices are to be accomplished in accordance with FAA specifications and require approval by the FAA Point-of-Contact as a condition of acceptance by the Owner. The Contractor is hereby advised that FAA restricts the location of where splices may be installed. If a cable splice is required in a location that is not permitted by FAA, the Contractor shall furnish and install a sufficient length of new cable that eliminates the need for any splice. 70-16 Furnishing rights-of-way. The Owner will be responsible for furnishing all rights-of-way upon which the work is to be constructed in advance of the Contractor’s operations. 70-17 Personal liability of public officials. In carrying out any of the contract provisions or in exercising any power or authority granted by this contract, there shall be no liability upon the Engineer, his or her authorized representatives, or any officials of the Owner either personally or as an official of the Owner. It is understood that in such matters they act solely as agents and representatives of the Owner. 70-18 No waiver of legal rights. Upon completion of the work, the Owner will expeditiously make final inspection and notify the Contractor of final acceptance. Such final acceptance, however, shall not preclude or stop the Owner from correcting any measurement, estimate, or certificate made before or after completion of the work, nor shall the Owner be precluded or stopped from recovering from the Contractor or its surety, or both, such overpayment as may be sustained, or by failure on the part of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under the contract. A waiver on the part of the Owner of any breach of any part of the contract shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 The Contractor, without prejudice to the terms of the contract, shall be liable to the Owner for latent defects, fraud, or such gross mistakes as may amount to fraud, or as regards the Owner’s rights under any warranty or guaranty. 70-19 Environmental protection.

Should the Contractor encounter, during its operations, any building, part of a building, structure, or object that is incongruous with its surroundings, the Contractor shall immediately cease operations in that location and notify the Engineer. The Engineer will immediately investigate the Contractor’s finding and the Owner will direct the Contractor to either resume operations or to suspend operations as directed. Should the Owner order suspension of the Contractor’s operations in order to protect an archaeological or historical finding, or order the Contractor to perform extra work, such shall be covered by an appropriate contract change order or supplemental agreement as provided in the subsection 40-04 titled EXTRA WORK of Section 40 and the subsection 90-05 titled PAYMENT FOR EXTRA WORK of Section 90. If appropriate, the contract change order or supplemental agreement shall include an extension of contract time in accordance with the subsection 80-07 titled DETERMINATION AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME of Section 80. END OF SECTION 70 SECTION 80 EXECUTION AND PROGRESS 80-01 Subletting of contract. The Owner will not recognize any subcontractor on the work. The Contractor shall at all times when work is in progress be represented either in person, by a Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 qualified superintendent, or by other designated, qualified representative who is duly authorized to receive and execute orders of the Engineer. The Contractor shall provide copies of all subcontracts to the Engineer. The Contractor shall perform, with his organization, an amount of work equal to at least twenty-five (25 %) percent of the total contract cost. Should the Contractor elect to assign his or her contract, said assignment shall be concurred in by the surety, shall be presented for the consideration and approval of the Owner, and shall be consummated only on the written approval of the Owner. 80-02 Notice to proceed. The notice to proceed (NTP) shall state the date on which it is expected the Contractor will begin the construction and from which date contract time will be charged. The Contractor shall begin the work to be performed under the contract within 10 days of the date set by the Engineer in the written notice to proceed, but in any event, the Contractor shall notify the Engineer at least 24 hours in advance of the time actual construction operations will begin. The Contractor shall not commence any actual construction prior to the date on which the notice to proceed is issued by the Owner. 80-03 Execution and progress. Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall submit their progress schedule for the Engineer’s approval within ten (10) days after the effective date of the NTP. The Contractor’s progress schedule, when approved by the Engineer, may be used to establish major construction operations and to check on the progress of the Work. The Contractor shall provide sufficient materials, equipment, and labor to guarantee the completion of the project in accordance with the plans and specifications within the time set forth in the contract. If the Contractor falls significantly behind the submitted schedule, the Contractor shall, upon the Engineer’s request, submit a revised schedule for completion of the Work within the contract time and modify their operations to provide such additional materials, equipment, and labor necessary to meet the revised schedule. Should the execution of the Work be discontinued for any reason, the Contractor shall notify the Engineer at least 24 hours in advance of resuming operations. The Contractor shall not commence any actual construction prior to the date on which the notice to proceed is issued by the Owner. 80-04 Limitation of operations. The Contractor shall control its operations and the operations of its subcontractors and all suppliers to provide for the free and unobstructed movement of aircraft in the air operations areas (AOA) of the Airport. When the Work requires the Contractor to conduct its operations within an AOA of the Airport, the Work shall be coordinated with Airport operations (through the Engineer) at least 48 hours prior Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 to commencement of such Work. The Contractor shall not close an AOA until so authorized by the Engineer and until the necessary temporary marking and associated lighting is in place as provided in the subsection 70-08 titled BARRICADES, WARNING SIGNS, AND HAZARD MARKINGS of Section 70. When the contract work requires the Contractor to work within an AOA of the Airport on an intermittent basis (intermittent opening and closing of the AOA), the Contractor shall maintain constant communications as specified; immediately obey all instructions to vacate the AOA; immediately obey all instructions to resume work in such AOA. Failure to maintain the specified communications or to obey instructions shall be cause for suspension of the Contractor’s operations in the AOA until the satisfactory conditions are provided. Refer to the Construction Safety and Phasing Plans for restrictions. Contractor shall be required to conform to safety standards contained in AC 150/5370-2, Operational Safety on Airports During Construction (see Special Provisions). 80-04.1 Operational safety on airport during construction. All Contractor’s operations shall be conducted in accordance with the Project Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) and the provisions set forth within the current version of AC 150/5370-2. The CSPP included within the contract documents conveys minimum requirements for operational safety on the Airport during construction activities. The Contractor shall prepare and submit a Safety Plan Compliance Document that details how it proposes to comply with the requirements presented within the CSPP. The Contractor shall implement all necessary Safety Plan measures prior to commencement of any Work activity.

The Contractor shall, at all times, employ sufficient labor and equipment for prosecuting the work to full completion in the manner and time required by the contract, Plans, and Specifications. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 All workers shall have sufficient skill and experience to perform properly the work assigned to them. Workers engaged in special work or skilled work shall have sufficient experience in such work and in the operation of the equipment required to perform the work satisfactorily. Any person employed by the Contractor or by any subcontractor who violates any operational regulations or operational safety requirements and, in the opinion of the Engineer, does not perform his work in a proper and skillful manner or is intemperate or disorderly shall, at the written request of the Engineer, be removed forthwith by the Contractor or subcontractor employing such person, and shall not be employed again in any portion of the Work without approval of the Engineer. Should the Contractor fail to remove such persons or person, or fail to furnish suitable and sufficient personnel for the proper execution of the Work, the Engineer may suspend the Work by written notice until compliance with such orders. All equipment that is proposed to be used on the Work shall be of sufficient size and in such mechanical condition as to meet requirements of the Work and to produce a satisfactory quality of Work. Equipment used on any portion of the Work shall be such that no injury to previously completed Work, adjacent property, or existing Airport facilities will result from its use. When the methods and equipment to be used by the Contractor in accomplishing the Work are not prescribed in the contract, the Contractor is free to use any methods or equipment that will accomplish the Work in conformity with the requirements of the contract, plans, and specifications. When the contract specifies the use of certain methods and equipment, such methods and equipment shall be used unless others are authorized by the Engineer. If the Contractor desires to use a method or type of equipment other than specified in the contract, the Contractor may request authority from the Engineer to do so. The request shall be in writing and shall include a full description of the methods and equipment proposed and of the reasons for desiring to make the change. If approval is given, it will be on the condition that the Contractor will be fully responsible for producing Work in conformity with contract requirements. If, after trial use of the substituted methods or equipment, the Engineer determines that the Work produced does not meet contract requirements, the Contractor shall discontinue the use of the substitute method or equipment and shall complete the remaining Work with the specified methods and equipment. The Contractor shall remove any deficient Work and replace it with Work of specified quality, or take such other corrective action as the Engineer may direct. No change will be made in basis of payment for the contract items involved nor in contract time as a result of authorizing a change in methods or equipment under this subsection. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 80-06 Temporary suspension of the Work. The Owner shall have the authority to suspend the Work wholly, or in part, for such period or periods as the Owner may deem necessary, due to unsuitable weather, or such other conditions as are considered unfavorable for the execution of the Work, or for such time as is necessary due to the failure on the part of the Contractor to carry out orders given or perform any or all provisions of the contract. In the event that the Contractor is ordered by the Owner, in writing, to suspend Work for some unforeseen cause not otherwise provided for in the contract and over which the Contractor has no control, the Contractor may be reimbursed for actual money expended on the Work during the period of shutdown. No allowance will be made for anticipated profits. The period of shutdown shall be computed from the effective date of the Engineer’s order to suspend Work to the effective date of the Engineer’s order to resume the Work. Claims for such compensation shall be filed with the Engineer within the time period stated in the Engineer’s order to resume Work. The Contractor shall submit with its claim information substantiating the amount shown on the claim. The Engineer will forward the Contractor’s claim to the Owner for consideration in accordance with local laws or ordinances. No provision of this article shall be construed as entitling the Contractor to compensation for delays due to inclement weather, for suspensions made at the request of the Owner, or for any other delay provided for in the contract, plans, or specifications. If it should become necessary to suspend Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall store all materials in such manner that they will not become an obstruction nor become damaged in any way. The Contractor shall take every precaution to prevent damage or deterioration of the Work performed and provide for normal drainage of the Work. The Contractor shall erect temporary structures where necessary to provide for traffic on, to, or from the Airport. 80-07 Determination and extension of contract time. The number of calendar or working days allowed for completion of the work shall be stated in the contract and shall be known as the CONTRACT TIME. Should the contract time require extension for reasons beyond the Contractor’s control, it shall be adjusted as follows: a. CONTRACT TIME based on WORKING DAYS shall be calculated weekly by the Engineer. The Engineer will furnish the Contractor a copy of its weekly statement of the number of working days charged against the contract time during the week and the number of working days currently specified for completion of the contract (the original contract time plus the number of working days, if any, that have been included in approved CHANGE ORDERS or SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS covering EXTRA WORK). Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 The Engineer shall base its weekly statement of contract time charged on the following considerations: (1) No time shall be charged for days on which the Contractor is unable to proceed with the principal item of Work under construction at the time for at least six (6) hours with the normal work force employed on such principal item. Should the normal work force be on a double-shift, 12 hours shall be used. Should the normal work force be on a triple-shift, 18 hours shall apply. Conditions beyond the Contractor’s control such as strikes, lockouts, unusual delays in transportation, temporary suspension of the principal item of Work under construction or temporary suspension of the entire Work which have been ordered by the Owner for reasons not the fault of the Contractor, shall not be charged against the contract time. (2) The Engineer will not make charges against the contract time prior to the effective date of the notice to proceed. (3) The Engineer will begin charges against the contract time on the first working day after the effective date of the notice to proceed. (4) The Engineer will not make charges against the contract time after the date of final acceptance as defined in the subsection 50-15 titled FINAL ACCEPTANCE of Section 50. (5) The Contractor will be allowed one (1) week in which to file a written protest setting forth its objections to the Engineer’s weekly statement. If no objection is filed within such specified time, the weekly statement shall be considered as acceptable to the Contractor. The contract time (stated in the bid and resulting Contract) is based on the originally estimated quantities as described in the subsection 20-05 titled INTERPRETATION OF ESTIMATED BID QUANTITIES of Section 20. Should the satisfactory completion of the contract require performance of work in greater quantities than those estimated in the bid, the Contract time shall be increased in the same proportion as the cost of the actually completed quantities bears to the cost of the originally estimated quantities in the bid. Such increase in Contract time shall not consider either the cost of work or the extension of Contract time that has been covered by change order or supplemental agreement and shall be made at the time of final payment. b. Contract Time based on calendar days shall consist of the number of calendar days stated in the contract counting from the effective date of the notice to proceed and including all Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, and non-work days. All calendar days elapsing between the effective dates of the Owner’s orders to suspend and resume all work, due to causes not the fault of the Contractor, shall be excluded. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 At the time of final payment, the Contract time shall be increased in the same proportion as the cost of the actually completed quantities bears to the cost of the originally estimated quantities in the bid. Such increase in the contract time shall not consider either cost of work or the extension of Contract time that has been covered by a change order or supplemental agreement. Charges against the Contract time will cease as of the date of final acceptance. c. When the Contract time is a specified completion date, it shall be the date on which all contract work shall be substantially complete. If the Contractor finds it impossible for reasons beyond his or her control to complete the work within the Contract time as specified, or as extended in accordance with the provisions of this subsection, the Contractor may, at any time prior to the expiration of the Contract time as extended, make a written request to the Owner for an extension of time setting forth the reasons which the Contractor believes will justify the granting of his or her request. Requests for extension of time on calendar day projects, caused by inclement weather, shall be supported with National Weather Bureau data showing the actual amount of inclement weather exceeded what could normally be expected during the contract period. The Contractor’s plea that insufficient time was specified is not a valid reason for extension of time. If the supporting documentation justify the work was delayed because of conditions beyond the control and without the fault of the Contractor, the Owner may extend the time for completion by a change order that adjusts the Contract time or completion date. The extended time for completion shall then be in full force and effect, the same as though it were the original time for completion. 80-08 Failure to complete on time. For each calendar day or working day, as specified in the contract, that any work remains uncompleted after the contract time (including all extensions and adjustments as provided in the subsection 80-07 titled DETERMINATION AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME of this Section) the sum specified in the contract and bid as liquidated damages will be deducted from any money due or to become due the Contractor or his or her surety. Such deducted sums shall not be deducted as a penalty but shall be considered as liquidation of a reasonable portion of damages including but not limited to additional engineering services that will be incurred by the Owner should the Contractor fail to complete the work in the time provided in their contract.

The maximum construction time allowed for Work Area 2C shall be 15 calendar days. The maximum construction time allowed for will be 270 calendar days. Permitting the Contractor to continue and finish the work or any part of it after the time fixed for its completion, or after the date to which the time for completion may have been extended, will in no way operate as a wavier on the part of the Owner of any of its rights under the contract. 80-09 Default and termination of contract. The Contractor shall be considered in default of his or her contract and such default will be considered as cause for the Owner to terminate the contract for any of the following reasons if the Contractor: a. Fails to begin the work under the contract within the time specified in the Notice to Proceed, or b. Fails to perform the work or fails to provide sufficient workers, equipment and/or materials to assure completion of work in accordance with the terms of the contract, or Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 c. Performs the work unsuitably or neglects or refuses to remove materials or to perform anew such work as may be rejected as unacceptable and unsuitable, or d. Discontinues the execution of the work, or e. Fails to resume work which has been discontinued within a reasonable time after notice to do so, or f. Becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt, or commits any act of bankruptcy or insolvency, or g. Allows any final judgment to stand against the Contractor unsatisfied for a period of 10 days, or h. Makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or i. For any other cause whatsoever, fails to carry on the work in an acceptable manner. Should the Engineer consider the Contractor in default of the contract for any reason above, the Engineer shall immediately give written notice to the Contractor and the Contractor’s surety as to the reasons for considering the Contractor in default and the Owner’s intentions to terminate the contract. If the Contractor or surety, within a period of 10 days after such notice, does not proceed in accordance therewith, then the Owner will, upon written notification from the Engineer of the facts of such delay, neglect, or default and the Contractor’s failure to comply with such notice, have full power and authority without violating the contract, to take the execution of the work out of the hands of the Contractor. The Owner may appropriate or use any or all materials and equipment that have been mobilized for use in the work and are acceptable and may enter into an agreement for the completion of said contract according to the terms and provisions thereof, or use such other methods as in the opinion of the Engineer will be required for the completion of said contract in an acceptable manner. All costs and charges incurred by the Owner, together with the cost of completing the work under contract, will be deducted from any monies due or which may become due the Contractor. If such expense exceeds the sum which would have been payable under the contract, then the Contractor and the surety shall be liable and shall pay to the Owner the amount of such excess. 80-10 Termination for national emergencies. The Owner shall terminate the contract or portion thereof by written notice when the Contractor is prevented from proceeding with the construction Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 contract as a direct result of an Executive Order of the President with respect to the execution of war or in the interest of national defense. When the contract, or any portion thereof, is terminated before completion of all items of work in the contract, payment will be made for the actual number of units or items of work completed at the contract price or as mutually agreed for items of work partially completed or not started. No claims or loss of anticipated profits shall be considered. Reimbursement for organization of the work, and other overhead expenses, (when not otherwise included in the contract) and moving equipment and materials to and from the job will be considered, the intent being that an equitable settlement will be made with the Contractor. Acceptable materials, obtained or ordered by the Contractor for the work and that are not incorporated in the work shall, at the option of the Contractor, be purchased from the Contractor at actual cost as shown by receipted bills and actual cost records at such points of delivery as may be designated by the Engineer. Termination of the contract or a portion thereof shall neither relieve the Contractor of his or her responsibilities for the completed work nor shall it relieve his or her surety of its obligation for and concerning any just claim arising out of the work performed. 80-12 Work area, storage area and sequence of operations. The Contractor shall obtain approval from the Engineer prior to beginning any work in all areas of the airport. No operating runway, taxiway, or air operations area (AOA) shall be crossed, entered, or obstructed while it is operational. The Contractor shall plan and coordinate his or her work in such a manner as to ensure safety and a minimum of hindrance to flight operations. All Contractor equipment and material stockpiles shall be stored a minimum or 400 feet from the centerline of an active runway. No equipment will be allowed to park within the approach area of an active runway at any time. No equipment shall be within 250 feet of an active runway at any time. END OF SECTION 80 Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 SECTION 90 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 90-01 Measurement of quantities. All work completed under the contract will be measured by the Engineer, or his or her authorized representatives, using United States Customary Units of Measurement or the International System of Units. The method of measurement and computations to be used in determination of quantities of material furnished and of work performed under the contract will be those methods generally recognized as conforming to good engineering practice. Unless otherwise specified, longitudinal measurements for area computations will be made horizontally, and no deductions will be made for individual fixtures (or leave-outs) having an area of 9 square feet (0.8 square meters) or less. Unless otherwise specified, transverse measurements for area computations will be the neat dimensions shown on the plans or ordered in writing by the Engineer. Structures will be measured according to neat lines shown on the plans or as altered to fit field conditions. Unless otherwise specified, all contract items which are measured by the linear foot such as electrical ducts, conduits, pipe culverts, underdrains, and similar items shall be measured parallel to the base or foundation upon which such items are placed. In computing volumes of excavation the average end area method or other acceptable methods will be used. The thickness of plates and galvanized sheet used in the manufacture of corrugated metal pipe, metal plate pipe culverts and arches, and metal cribbing will be specified and measured in decimal fraction of inch. The term “ton” will mean the short ton consisting of 2,000 lb (907 km) avoirdupois. All materials that are measured or proportioned by weights shall be weighed on accurate, approved scales by competent, qualified personnel at locations designed by the Engineer. If material is shipped by rail, the car weight may be accepted provided that only the actual weight of material is paid for. However, car weights will not be acceptable for material to be passed through mixing plants. Trucks used to haul material being paid for by weight shall be weighed empty daily at such times as the Engineer directs, and each truck shall bear a plainly legible identification mark. Materials to be measured by volume in the hauling vehicle shall be hauled in approved vehicles and measured therein at the point of delivery. Vehicles for this purpose may be of any size or type acceptable for the materials hauled, provided that the body is of such shape that the actual Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 contents may be readily and accurately determined. All vehicles shall be loaded to at least their water level capacity, and all loads shall be leveled when the vehicles arrive at the point of delivery. When requested by the Contractor and approved by the Engineer in writing, material specified to be measured by the cubic yard (cubic meter) may be weighed, and such weights will be converted to cubic yards (cubic meters) for payment purposes. Factors for conversion from weight measurement to volume measurement will be determined by the Engineer and shall be agreed to by the Contractor before such method of measurement of pay quantities is used. Bituminous materials will be measured by the gallon (liter) or ton (kg). When measured by volume, such volumes will be measured at 60°F (16°C) or will be corrected to the volume at 60°F (16°C) using ASTM D1250 for asphalts or ASTM D633 for tars. Net certified scale weights or weights based on certified volumes in the case of rail shipments will be used as a basis of measurement, subject to correction when bituminous material has been lost from the car or the distributor, wasted, or otherwise not incorporated in the work. When bituminous materials are shipped by truck or transport, net certified weights by volume, subject to correction for loss or foaming, may be used for computing quantities. Cement will be measured by the ton (kg) or hundredweight (km). Timber will be measured by the thousand feet board measure (MFBM) actually incorporated in the structure. Measurement will be based on nominal widths and thicknesses and the extreme length of each piece. The term “lump sum” when used as an item of payment will mean complete payment for the work described in the contract. When a complete structure or structural unit (in effect, “lump sum” work) is specified as the unit of measurement, the unit will be construed to include all necessary fittings and accessories. Rental of equipment will be measured by time in hours of actual working time and necessary traveling time of the equipment within the limits of the Work. Special equipment ordered by the Engineer in connection with force account work will be measured as agreed in the change order or supplemental agreement authorizing such force account work as provided in the subsection 90-05 titled PAYMENT FOR EXTRA WORK of this section. When standard manufactured items are specified such as fence, wire, plates, rolled shapes, pipe conduit, etc., and these items are identified by gauge, unit weight, section dimensions, etc., such identification will be considered to be nominal weights or dimensions. Unless more stringently controlled by tolerances in cited specifications, manufacturing tolerances established by the industries involved will be accepted. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 Scales for weighing materials which are required to be proportioned or measured and paid for by weight shall be furnished, erected, and maintained by the Contractor, or be certified permanently installed commercial scales. Scales shall be accurate within 1/2% of the correct weight throughout the range of use. The Contractor shall have the scales checked under the observation of the inspector before beginning work and at such other times as requested. The intervals shall be uniform in spacing throughout the graduated or marked length of the beam or dial and shall not exceed one-tenth of 1% of the nominal rated capacity of the scale, but not less than 1 pound (454 grams). The use of spring balances will not be permitted. Beams, dials, platforms, and other scale equipment shall be so arranged that the operator and the inspector can safely and conveniently view them. Scale installations shall have available ten standard 50-pound (2.3 km) weights for testing the weighing equipment or suitable weights and devices for other approved equipment. Scales must be tested for accuracy and serviced before use at a new site. Platform scales shall be installed and maintained with the platform level and rigid bulkheads at each end. Scales “overweighing” (indicating more than correct weight) will not be permitted to operate, and all materials received subsequent to the last previous correct weighting-accuracy test will be reduced by the percentage of error in excess of one-half of 1%. In the event inspection reveals the scales have been underweighing (indicating less than correct weight), they shall be adjusted, and no additional payment to the Contractor will be allowed for materials previously weighed and recorded. All costs in connection with furnishing, installing, certifying, testing, and maintaining scales; for furnishing check weights and scale house; and for all other items specified in this subsection, for the weighing of materials for proportioning or payment, shall be included in the unit contract prices for the various items of the project. When the estimated quantities for a specific portion of the Work are designated as the pay quantities in the contract, they shall be the final quantities for which payment for such specific portion of the Work will be made, unless the dimensions of said portions of the Work shown on the plans are revised by the Engineer. If revised dimensions result in an increase or decrease in the quantities of such Work, the final quantities for payment will be revised in the amount represented by the authorized changes in the dimensions. 90-02 Scope of payment. The Contractor shall receive and accept compensation provided for in the contract as full payment for furnishing all materials, for performing all Work under the contract Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 in a complete and acceptable manner, and for all risk, loss, damage, or expense of whatever character arising out of the nature of the Work or the execution thereof, subject to the provisions of the subsection 70-18 titled NO WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGHTS of Section 70. When the “basis of payment” subsection of a technical specification requires that the contract price (price bid) include compensation for certain work or material essential to the item, this same work or material will not also be measured for payment under any other contract item which may appear elsewhere in the contract, plans, or specifications. 90-03 Compensation for altered quantities. When the accepted quantities of Work vary from the quantities in the contract, the Contractor shall accept as payment in full, so far as contract items are concerned, payment at the original contract price for the accepted quantities of Work actually completed and accepted. No allowance, except as provided for in the subsection 40-02 titled ALTERATION OF WORK AND QUANTITIES of Section 40 will be made for any increased expense, loss of expected reimbursement, or loss of anticipated profits suffered or claimed by the Contractor which results directly from such alterations or indirectly from its Sunbalanced allocation of overhead and profit among the contract items, or from any other cause. 90-04 Payment for omitted items. As specified in the subsection 40-03 titled OMITTED ITEMS of Section 40, the Engineer shall have the right to omit from the Work (order nonperformance) any contract item, except major contract items, in the best interest of the Owner. Should the Engineer omit or order nonperformance of a contract item or portion of such item from the Work, the Contractor shall accept payment in full at the contract prices for any Work actually completed and acceptable prior to the Engineer’s order to omit or non-perform such contract item. Acceptable materials ordered by the Contractor or delivered on the Work prior to the date of the Engineer’s order will be paid for at the actual cost to the Contractor and shall thereupon become the property of the Owner. In addition to the reimbursement hereinbefore provided, the Contractor shall be reimbursed for all actual costs incurred for the purpose of performing the omitted contract item prior to the date of the Engineer’s order. Such additional costs incurred by the Contractor must be directly related to the deleted contract item and shall be supported by certified statements by the Contractor as to the nature the amount of such costs. 90-05 Payment for extra Work. Extra work, performed in accordance with the subsection 40-04 titled EXTRA WORK of Section 40, will be paid for at the contract prices or agreed prices specified in the change order or supplemental agreement authorizing the extra Work. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 90-06 Partial payments. Partial payments will be made to the Contractor at least once each month as the Work progresses. Said payments will be based upon estimates, prepared by the Engineer, of the value of the Work performed and materials complete and in place, in accordance with the contract, Plans, and Specifications. Such partial payments may also include the delivered actual cost of those materials stockpiled and stored in accordance with the subsection 90-07 titled PAYMENT FOR MATERIALS ON HAND of this section. No partial payment will be made when the amount due to the Contractor since the last estimate amounts to less than five hundred dollars ($500.00). The Contractor is required to pay all subcontractors for satisfactory performance of their contracts no later than thirty (30) days after the Contractor has received a partial payment. The Owner must ensure prompt and full payment of retainage from the prime Contractor to the subcontractor within thirty (30) days after the subcontractor’s Work is satisfactorily completed. A subcontractor’s Work is satisfactorily completed when all the tasks called for in the subcontract have been accomplished and documented as required by the Owner. When the Owner has made an incremental acceptance of a portion of a prime contract, the Work of a subcontractor covered by that acceptance is deemed to be satisfactorily completed. From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a partial payment, ten (10%) percent of such total amount will be deducted and retained by the Owner until the final payment is made, except as may be provided (at the Contractor’s option) in the subsection 90-08 titled PAYMENT OF WITHHELD FUNDS of this section. The balance ninety percent (90%) of the amount payable, less all previous payments, shall be certified for payment. Should the Contractor exercise his or her option, as provided in the subsection 90-08 titled PAYMENT OF WITHHELD FUNDS of this section, no such percent retainage shall be deducted. When at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the work has been completed, the Engineer shall, at the Owner’s discretion and with the consent of the surety, prepare estimates of both the contract value and the cost of the remaining work to be done. The Owner may retain an amount not less than twice the contract value or estimated cost, whichever is greater, of the work remaining to be done. The remainder, less all previous payments and deductions, will then be certified for payment to the Contractor. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or receive partial payment based on quantities of Work in excess of those provided in the bid or covered by Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 approved change orders or supplemental agreements, except when such excess quantities have been determined by the Engineer to be a part of the final quantity for the item of work in question. No partial payment shall bind the Owner to the acceptance of any materials or Work in place as to quality or quantity. All partial payments are subject to correction at the time of final payment as provided in the subsection 90-09 titled ACCEPTANCE AND FINAL PAYMENT of this section. The Contractor shall deliver to the Owner a complete release of all claims for labor and material arising out of this contract before the final payment is made. If any subcontractor or supplier fails to furnish such a release in full, the Contractor may furnish a bond or other collateral satisfactory to the Owner to indemnify the Owner against any potential lien or other such claim. The bond or collateral shall include all costs, expenses, and attorney fees the Owner may be compelled to pay in discharging any such lien or claim. 90-07 Payment for materials on hand. Partial payments may be made to the extent of the delivered cost of materials to be incorporated in the work, provided that such materials meet the requirements of the contract, Plans, and Specifications and are delivered to acceptable sites on the Airport property or at other sites in the vicinity that are acceptable to the Owner. Such delivered costs of stored or stockpiled materials may be included in the next partial payment after the following conditions are met: a. The material has been stored or stockpiled in a manner acceptable to the Engineer at or on an approved site. b. The Contractor has furnished the Engineer with acceptable evidence of the quantity and quality of such stored or stockpiled materials. c. The Contractor has furnished the Engineer with satisfactory evidence that the material and transportation costs have been paid. d. The Contractor has furnished the Owner legal title (free of liens or encumbrances of any kind) to the material so stored or stockpiled. e. The Contractor has furnished the Owner evidence that the material so stored or stockpiled is insured against loss by damage to or disappearance of such materials at any time prior to use in the work. It is understood and agreed that the transfer of title and the Owner’s payment for such stored or stockpiled materials shall in no way relieve the Contractor of his or her responsibility for furnishing and placing such materials in accordance with the requirements of the contract, plans, and specifications. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 In no case will the amount of partial payments for materials on hand exceed the contract price for such materials or the contract price for the contract item in which the material is intended to be used. No partial payment will be made for stored or stockpiled living or perishable plant materials. The Contractor shall bear all costs associated with the partial payment of stored or stockpiled materials in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. 90-08 Payment of withheld funds. At the Contractor’s option, if an Owner withholds retainage in accordance with the methods described in subsection 90-06 PARTIAL PAYMENTS, the Contractor may request that the Owner deposit the retainage into an escrow account. The Owner’s deposit of retainage into an escrow account is subject to the following conditions: a. The Contractor shall bear all expenses of establishing and maintaining an escrow account and escrow agreement acceptable to the Owner. b. The Contractor shall deposit to and maintain in such escrow only those securities or bank certificates of deposit as are acceptable to the Owner and having a value not less than the retainage that would otherwise be withheld from partial payment. c. The Contractor shall enter into an escrow agreement satisfactory to the Owner. d. The Contractor shall obtain the written consent of the surety to such agreement. 90-09 Acceptance and final payment. When the contract work has been accepted in accordance with the requirements of the subsection 50-15 titled FINAL ACCEPTANCE of Section 50, the Engineer will prepare the final estimate of the items of work actually performed. The Contractor shall approve the Engineer’s final estimate or advise the Engineer of the Contractor’s objections to the final estimate which are based on disputes in measurements or computations of the final quantities to be paid under the contract as amended by change order or supplemental agreement. The Contractor and the Engineer shall resolve all disputes (if any) in the measurement and computation of final quantities to be paid within thirty (30) calendar days of the Contractor’s receipt of the Engineer’s final estimate. If, after such 30-day period, a dispute still exists, the Contractor may approve the Engineer’s estimate under protest of the quantities in dispute, and such disputed quantities shall be considered by the Owner as a claim in accordance with the subsection 50-16 titled CLAIMS FOR ADJUSTMENT AND DISPUTES of Section 50. After the Contractor has approved, or approved under protest, the Engineer’s final estimate, and after the Engineer’s receipt of the project closeout documentation required in subsection 90-11 Project Closeout, final payment will be processed based on the entire sum, or the undisputed sum Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 in case of approval under protest, determined to be due the Contractor less all previous payments and all amounts to be deducted under the provisions of the contract. All prior partial estimates and payments shall be subject to correction in the final estimate and payment. If the Contractor has filed a claim for additional compensation under the provisions of the subsection 50-16 titled CLAIMS FOR ADJUSTMENTS AND DISPUTES of Section 50 or under the provisions of this subsection, such claims will be considered by the Owner in accordance with local laws or ordinances. Upon final adjudication of such claims, any additional payment determined to be due the Contractor will be paid pursuant to a supplemental final estimate. 90-10 Construction warranty. a. In addition to any other warranties in this contract, the Contractor warrants that Work performed under this contract conforms to the contract requirements and is free of any defect in equipment, material, workmanship, or design furnished, or performed by the Contractor or any subcontractor or supplier at any tier. b. This warranty shall continue for a period of one year from the date of final acceptance of the work. If the Owner takes possession of any part of the work before final acceptance, this warranty shall continue for a period of one year from the date the Owner takes possession. However, this will not relieve the Contractor from corrective items required by the final acceptance of the Project Work. c. The Contractor shall remedy at the Contractor’s expense any failure to conform, or any defect. In addition, the Contractor shall remedy at the Contractor’s expense any damage to Owner real or personal property, when that damage is the result of: (1) The Contractor’s failure to conform to contract requirements; or (2) Any defect of equipment, material, workmanship, or design furnished by the Contractor. d.

END OF SECTION 90 Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 SECTION 100 CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM 100-01 General. When the specification requires a Contractor Quality Control Program, the Contractor shall establish, provide, and maintain an effective Quality Control Program that details the methods and procedures that will be taken to assure that all materials and completed construction required by this contract conform to contract Plans, technical Specifications and other requirements, whether manufactured by the Contractor, or procured from subcontractors or vendors. Although guidelines are established and certain minimum requirements are specified here and elsewhere in the contract technical specifications, the Contractor shall assume full responsibility for accomplishing the stated purpose. The intent of this section is to enable the Contractor to establish a necessary level of control that will: a. Adequately provide for the production of acceptable quality materials. b. Provide sufficient information to assure both the Contractor and the Engineer that the specification requirements can be met. c. Allow the Contractor as much latitude as possible to develop its own standard of control. The Contractor shall be prepared to discuss and present, at the preconstruction conference, their understanding of the quality control requirements. The Contractor shall not begin any construction or production of materials to be incorporated into the completed Work until the Quality Control Program has been reviewed and accepted by the Engineer. No partial payment will be made for materials subject to specific quality control requirements until the Quality Control Program has been reviewed. The quality control requirements contained in this section and elsewhere in the contract technical Specifications are in addition to and separate from the acceptance testing requirements. Acceptance testing requirements are the responsibility of the Engineer. Paving projects over $250,000 shall have a Quality Control (QC)/Quality Assurance (QA) workshop with the Engineer, Contractor, subcontractors, testing laboratories, and Owner’s representative and the FAA prior to or at start of construction. The workshop shall address QC and QA requirements of the project specifications. The Contractor shall coordinate with the Airport and the Engineer on time and location of the QC/QA workshop. 100-02 Description of program.

END OF SECTION 105 Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 SECTION 110 METHOD OF ESTIMATING PERCENTAGE OF MATERIAL WITHIN SPECIFICATION LIMITS (PWL) 110-01 General. When the specifications provide for acceptance of material based on the method of estimating percentage of material within specification limits (PWL), the PWL will be determined in accordance with this section. All test results for a lot will be analyzed statistically to determine the total estimated percent of the lot that is within specification limits. The PWL is computed using the sample average (X) and sample standard deviation (Sn) of the specified number (n) of sublots for the lot and the specification tolerance limits, L for lower and U for upper, for the particular acceptance parameter. From these values, the respective Quality index, QL for Lower Quality Index and/or QU for Upper Quality Index, is computed and the PWL for the lot for the specified n is determined from Table 1. All specification limits specified in the technical sections shall be absolute values. Test results used in the calculations shall be to the significant figure given in the test procedure. There is some degree of uncertainty (risk) in the measurement for acceptance because only a small fraction of production material (the population) is sampled and tested. This uncertainty exists because all portions of the production material have the same probability to be randomly sampled. The Contractor’s risk is the probability that material produced at the acceptable quality level is rejected or subjected to a pay adjustment. The Owner’s risk is the probability that material produced at the rejectable quality level is accepted. It is the intent of this section to inform the Contractor that, in order to consistently offset the Contractor’s risk for material evaluated, production quality (using population average and population standard deviation) must be maintained at the acceptable quality specified or higher. In all cases, it is the responsibility of the Contractor to produce at quality levels that will meet the specified acceptance criteria when sampled and tested at the frequencies specified. 110-02 Method for computing PWL. The computational sequence for computing PWL is as follows: a. Divide the lot into n sublots in accordance with the acceptance requirements of the specification. b. Locate the random sampling position within the sublot in accordance with the requirements of the specification. c. Make a measurement at each location, or take a test portion and make the measurement on the test portion in accordance with the testing requirements of the specification. Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 d. Find the sample average (X) for all sublot values within the lot by using the following formula: X = (x1 + x2 + x3 + . . .xn) / n Where: X = Sample average of all sublot values within a lot x1, x2 = Individual sublot values n = Number of sublots e. Find the sample standard deviation (Sn) by use of the following formula: Sn = [(d12 + d22 + d32 + . . .dn2)/(n-1)]1/2 Where: Sn = Sample standard deviation of the number of sublot values in the set d1, d2 = Deviations of the individual sublot values x1, x2, … from the average value X that is: d1 = (x1 - X), d2 = (x2 - X) … dn = (xn - X) n = Number of sublots f. For single sided specification limits (that is, L only), compute the Lower Quality Index QL by use of the following formula: QL = (X - L) / Sn Where: L = specification lower tolerance limit Estimate the percentage of material within limits (PWL) by entering Table 1 with QL, using the column appropriate to the total number (n) of measurements. If the value of QL falls between values shown on the table, use the next higher value of PWL. g. For double-sided specification limits (that is, L and U), compute the Quality Indexes QL and QU by use of the following formulas: QL = (X - L) / Sn and QU = (U - X) / Sn Where: L and U = specification lower and upper tolerance limits Estimate the percentage of material between the lower (L) and upper (U) tolerance limits (PWL) by entering Table 1 separately with QL and QU, using the column appropriate to the total number (n) of measurements, and determining the percent of material above PL and percent of material below PU for each tolerance limit. If the values of QL fall between values shown on the table, use the next higher value of PL or PU. Determine the PWL by use of the following formula: PWL = (PU + PL) - 100 Where: PL = percent within lower specification limit Reconstruct & Extend Taxiway A Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta, Georgia AIP No. 3-13-0011-038-2015 and 3-13-0011-39-2016 PU = percent within upper specification limit EXAMPLE OF PWL CALCULATION Project: Example Project Test Item: Item P-401, Lot A.

Clerk of Commission 1 PUBLIC ART POLICY The mission of the Greater Augusta Arts Council (GAAC) is to enrich the quality of life for citizens and visitors in Augusta and the Central Savannah River Area by advancing a vibrant cultural arts agenda. Art enhances Augusta’s identity as a community that values creative and diverse expressions. It builds our sense of civic pride and enriches the quality of our lives. Public Art fulfills these purposes in many ways; it improves our experience of public spaces through artistic design; it enhances and preserves our vistas, it can introduce whimsical elements into otherwise ordinary spaces and it engages us in our community’s activities, hopes and history. In recognition of the importance of integrating public art into the lives of residents of Augusta, the Greater Augusta Arts Council, as the public art agency of Augusta, supports a strong public art policy in Augusta, Georgia. To this end the Greater Augusta Arts Council provides the Augusta, Georgia public art policy with the following goals in mind: · To create exciting, appealing and harmonious public spaces by integrating art into architecture, urban design and the planning of infrastructure at the earliest design stage; · To enhance Augusta’s image locally, regionally and nationally by insuring the creation of the highest quality public art; · To foster the public’s understanding and enjoyment of public art; 2 · To encourage artists to work and live in Augusta and participate in public presentations of their art in Augusta, Georgia; and · To encourage federal, state, city and private support for Augusta’s public art program. · To facilitate the creation of a unique community identity in pursuit of transforming the area into a noted arts destination community. 1) PUBLIC ART COVERED BY THE POLICY: This policy applies to original works of art that are durable or temporary, and accessible to the public; reflect an awareness of the site, both physically and socially; and fit the historical and cultural values and sensibilities of the community. Public art governed by this policy includes all of the following works of art: a. Works of art owned or acquired by the consolidated government of Augusta, Georgia or GAAC b. Works of art donated or loaned to Augusta, Georgia or GAAC (whether provided by the artist, a private entity, or a foundation). c. Works of art that are displayed (or the owner seeks to display) at any public space in Richmond County, Georgia. Art, as defined by this policy, encompasses the broadest definition of visual art including (but not limited to) · sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, murals, glass or water features, landscaping, · uniquely designed or site specific paving, · furniture and parts of buildings, · sound and light works, · organic form, · works that are designed to be temporary in nature, · memorabilia or ceremonial objects related to civic activities. · temporary exhibits, exhibitions, and/or works of art located in public space, · works of arts produced through involvement of the community, · integration of art and architecture to enhance the design of urban/public spaces. · performance works made available and accessible to the general public. 3 Public space is defined as a space which is easily accessible and clearly visible for public view. This includes, but is not limited to, buildings, parks, streets, squares, promenades, public foyers and plazas. Works of art selected must comply with constitutionally acceptable principles. For example, GAAC in its advisory capacity will refuse to display work that is constitutionally unprotected, such as: libelous or defamatory work, child pornography, or obscenity (i.e. sexually explicit and “patently offensive” work that lacks artistic value). Let it be noted, nudity does not automatically suggest that the artwork is obscene in all public space. However, if it is portrayed in a public space likely to be seen by children, additional consideration will be taken with respect to such artwork of art. 2) POLICY ADMINISTRATION: The Greater Augusta Arts Council will have advisory and recommending oversight of all aspects of this policy, including, but not limited to: program implementation, planning, commissioning, acquiring, handling, conserving and maintaining of all public art (services) covered by this policy reporting and coordinating through the Recreation and Parks Department of Augusta, Georgia. The GAAC will establish a seven (7) person Panel to perform some or all of the aspects of this policy as well as to serve in an advisory capacity to the GAAC with respect to the administration of this policy. The members of the Panel will be appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the GAAC. The Panel will be chaired by the GAAC Vice President of Public Art. Members of the Panel may include: GAAC Executive Director, GAAC staff, GAAC board members; community artists, art professors and educators; local historians, public art administrators, architects, landscape architects, museum and exhibition curators, and art critics, a representative from the Augusta Convention and Visitor’s Bureau, a representative from the Augusta Chamber of Commerce, a representative from the Recreation and Parks Department, a representative from Central Services Department, a representative from Augusta Tomorrow or any other person deemed appropriate by the GAAC. In order to be a member of the Panel the individual must be a resident of Richmond County, Georgia. GAAC will meet routinely or as 4 called with the Public Art Advisory Panel to hear updates, discuss committee recommendations and to assist GAAC in finalizing recommendations and advisement regarding Public Art that will be made to the Recreation and Parks Department of Augusta, Georgia. All budgetary discretion and allocations required to implement this policy will be recommended from GAAC to the Recreation and Parks Department. Specific art project allocations may include: staffing, any project consultant fees, GAAC administrative costs, programming costs, and project implementation costs. Conflicts of Interest Any conduct that creates an appearance of impropriety or may otherwise impair a Panel member’s judgment is prohibited. Anyone in a position to receive financial gain from the selection of artist(s) will be ineligible to serve on the Panel. Panel members must declare any conflict of interest and recuse themselves if a conflict of interest arises. Additionally, GAAC will recognize Augusta Conflict of Interest Ordinance 7427. Specifically exhibits B, D and F are to be recognized. Panel Length of Appointment: Advisory Panel members will serve for a maximum of three (3) years per appointment. After this time, the GAAC may choose to reappoint the member or to appoint a new member in his/her place. However, no Panel member may serve more than two (2) consecutive three (3) year appointments. Panel Responsibilities: The Panel will serve as the selection committee for the Public Art to be displayed in the Greater Augusta area. In addition to ensuring that all public art complies with the requirements of this policy, the Panel should strive to select art that will enhance the culture of Augusta while maintaining the vision of the GAAC. The Panel will be responsible for conducting surveys of existing art exhibits to determine information including, but not limited to, artist, ownership, liability, maintenance, funding, etc. The Panel will also be responsible for maintaining a database of all current and 5 future Art. The Panel will be in charge of the Call for Artists, Proposal and Art reviews, and other such items/events. The Panel will work in partnership with the GAAC, Recreation and Parks Department and all appropriate Augusta, Georgia departments in the implementation of, planning, commissioning, acquisition, handling, conservation and maintenance of all public art work under the jurisdiction of these entities. 3) SITE SELECTION Sites for Public Art covered by this Policy are locations in Augusta which are identified as suitable for Public Art Projects and are physically and/or visually accessible to and by the public. Public art projects covered by this policy for which public money is utilized are to be located on public property owned by Augusta. Augusta, Georgia Initiated Projects GAAC working with the Augusta, Georgia Commission through the Recreation and Parks Department, will implement the Public Arts Master Plan (Plan), which will identify appropriate and significant sites for the location of public art. The GAAC and City have partnered and initiated a comprehensive community planning process in developing this Plan and shall ensure that any subsequent modifications or plan updates provides appropriate opportunities for public input into public art projects. The Plan should complement and supplement Augusta’s various other planning documents guiding the growth and development of Augusta, such as, but not limited to, the 2009 Master Plan for Augusta (Westobou Vision), the Augusta Sustainable Development Agenda (2010), Augusta Convention and Visitor Bureau 2016 Destination Plan, and Recreation and Parks Department Master Plan. The initial Plan shall be submitted to the Augusta, Georgia Commission through the Recreation and Parks Department for their review and approval. The Plan will be reviewed and updated every five (5) years and may also be revised at such other times as deemed necessary by the Commission, the Recreation and Parks Department, or GAAC. The GAAC, working with the Panel, will identify the highest priority projects described in the Plan and recommend those projects annually to the Recreation and Parks Department for implementation as funding 6 allows each budget year. As much as possible, these projects should correspond with new construction or renovation projects planned by the Augusta, Georgia Commission for that same budget year. Criteria will be developed by the GAAC to guide the placement of off-site and on-site projects in order to ensure a fair and equitable distribution of public art throughout Augusta, Georgia that enhances, anchors, and activates public spaces. These criteria will ensure artwork is displayed prominently on the building site, or if it is integrated into the architecture, ensures that the artwork is recognizable. Community Initiated Projects Any Augusta, Georgia resident, community group or neighborhood association may propose to GAAC a public art project for a site that may or may not be on the Public Art Master Plan. Additionally, any Augusta, Georgia resident, community group or neighborhood association may submit an existing work of art, located on private or public property, for inclusion in the Public Art inventory under the guidance of the GAAC and in full collaboration with the Recreation and Parks Department. Sites where public art is to be displayed should: 1) Experience high levels of pedestrian or motor traffic and be part of Augusta, Georgia’s paths of circulation; 2) Be easily visible and accessible to the public; 3) Serve to anchor and activate the site; 4) Enhance the overall public environment; 5) Enhance the streetscape experience for pedestrians; 6) Help to create a place of congregation and activity; 7) Establish landmarks and neighborhood gateways; and 8) Be dispersed throughout Augusta, Georgia. The following points should be considered in site selection: 7 1) Work displayed in interior public spaces will be accessible to the public at least during normal building operating hours without requiring the public to obtain special passes or permits to view the work; 2) Work displayed in exterior public spaces should be accessible to the maximum extent possible. If a work is to be located in a park or similar setting, it should be assessable during the normal operating hours of that site or facility; 3) Work should not block windows or entranceways or obstruct normal pedestrian circulation entering or exiting a building (unless it is specifically a part of the experience or design of the work); 4) Work should not be placed at site if the landscaping and maintenance requirements of that site cannot be met; 5) Work should be sited for immediate and/or maximum visibility; 6) Work should be sited where it is not overwhelmed by, or competing with, the scale of the site, adjacent architecture, large retail signage, billboards, etc; 7) Work should be placed at a site where it will enhance the surroundings; 8) Work should not create a blind spot where illegal activity can take place; 9) Work should be sited where it will create a place of congregation or in a location that experiences high levels of pedestrian traffic and activity and; 10) Work should be sited where it will be effective in enhancing and activating the pedestrian and streetscape experience. 11) The installation of public artwork should comply with any master plan developed for the intended site, including any neighborhood or park master plans. On-site locations for public art projects include, but are not limited to, the following: walls, ceilings, floors, windows, staircases, escalators, roof tops, and entrances and exits. Works of Public Art are to be located on-site grounds, or in a facility or other complex of buildings adjacent to such a project site. 4) ELIGIBLE PUBLIC ART PROJECTS 1. Public Art Projects may include: 8 · The commissioning of permanent or temporary works designed for specific public sites in Augusta; · The loan, purchase or donation of art works deemed appropriate for public sites; · Artists contracted to work as integral members of architectural, infrastructure, and urban design teams; and · Installations, artist-in-residence programs, and other short-term projects or planning activities that result in the creation of temporary or permanent public art. 5) COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Each public art project created through this policy shall include an outreach program created and lead by GAAC and encourage community involvement in the implementation of the project, as well as inform and educate citizens about the project. Involvement from citizens within the community is essential to the success of the program. Citizens may be asked to submit ideas for sites and/or upcoming projects as well as given the opportunity to sit on citizen selection panels. All citizens with an interest in improving their community are welcome. Results from such outreach activities will be shared with the Recreation and Parks Department. The involvement of the community in public art should: a) Engage people in meaningful communication over their communities’ needs and aspirations for the future; b) Involve community members in the process of creating Public Art by appropriate means; c) Develop local artistic skills and empower local communities to lead on projects; d) Support Public Art projects that celebrate cultural diversity and help to break down barriers between people of all ages and backgrounds. 6) ARTIST SELECTION: The policy encourages the commission of works by artists from the CSRA arts community. The encouragement of CSRA residents to participate is an integral part of the policy, and will contribute to the unique identity of Augusta, Georgia as an outstanding city in the state, region, 9 and nation. This policy does not preclude consideration given to regional, national and international artists when appropriate. The Panel will determine the method of soliciting artist qualifications (open competition, limited competition and specific commission or acquisition) and the method of selecting the artist (review of qualifications, interview, or competitive proposal) that best suits a particular project. The Panel and the selected artist will develop a plan for community engagement that best fits the needs of the project and the community. · Open call – Publicly advertised calls for entries; any artist may submit proposals and/or qualifications · Limited Competition – between invited parties · Specific Commission – This method would apply where limited or open competition would be impractical or inappropriate. The Panel will: · Review artist qualifications and proposals; · Make final recommendations to the GAAC regarding artist selection and concept design approval; · Advise and assist in community outreach; · Finalize the vision for each project; · Coordinate subsequent stages of project development and review, working through the conventional capital project management process as members of the overall project design and construction team. Selection of Artists will be based on the following items: · The artist’s vitae (name, education, professional experience, references, etc.) · A statement of interest about the project; · Visual support materials/examples of previous artwork; · Request for qualifications (RFQ) or requests for proposals (RFP), depending on the project; · The proposed maintenance and funding plan. 7) OWNERSHIP/COPYRIGHT: 10 The following documentation must be filed with GAAC and the Recreations and Parks Department at the completion of the public art project: · Biographical details of the artist(s); · Artist statement and specifications of the artwork; · Six good quality slides/digital images and four black and white prints showing the artwork in context and close-up; · Other related materials as needed to reveal the artwork and/or artist intentions (e.g. film, video clips, book works etc.); · A copy of the artist’s maintenance plan. The artist retains all rights under the Copyright Act of 1976 (17 USC Section 101) as the sole author of the work for the duration of the copyright. The duration of copyright in the United States is currently the life of the author plus seventy (70) years. Title to the artwork passes to the City of Augusta or commissioning agency/organization upon their written acceptance of and payment for the work; copyright belongs to and remains with the artist. Rights to Reproduce the Work The artist and client or commissioning agency must each agree to the right to reproduce the artwork in any and all forms. Typically, artists grant the client or commissioning agency/organization license to make two-dimensional reproductions of the work for non- commercial and educational purposes. The client or commissioning agency/organization in turns agrees to include a credit to the artist and a notice of copyright on all such reproductions. Additional Rights It is standard professional practice that agencies agree not to intentionally alter, modify, change, destroy, or damage the work of art without first obtaining permission from the artist. If the artist’s work is accidentally damaged, the artist has the right to request that the work not be attributed to the artist until such time as the work is fully restored. 8) FUNDING: 11 Funding options for implementation and support of Augusta, Georgia’s Public Art Master Plan will be defined within the 2016 Augusta Public Master Art Plan and will be updated with each five (5) year updating of the plan. Commission approval of the plan and associated funding (including any additional funding sources identified and agreed upon) will be a collaborative process including GAAC, Recreation and Parks Department, Commission and/or any private funding sources. 9) MAINTENANCE AND CONSERVATION: Artwork can be affected by exposure to light (natural and artificial), wind, air-borne dust, temperature and humidity changes, vibration, precipitation and other conditions. On occasion, an artwork may also suffer physical damage as a result of accident or vandalism. The Greater Augusta Arts Council is committed to the ongoing presence and integrity of public art and the sites for which public art is created, to preserving the vision of the artists who create public art and to assuring continued access to the artworks in Augusta, Georgia's collection by the public.
