No. 2016-02 Page 1-19 LA #4834-0043-9827 v Nothing in this Contract prevents Contractor or any subcontractor from employing properly registered apprentices in the execution of the Contract. Contractor is responsible for compliance with Labor Code section 1777.5 for all apprenticeable occupations. This statute requires that contractors and subcontractors must submit contract award information to the applicable joint apprenticeship committee, must employ apprentices in apprenticeable occupations in a ratio of not less than one hour of apprentice's work for every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman (unless an exception is granted under § 1777.5), must contribute to the fund or funds in each craft or trade or a like amount to the California Apprenticeship Council, and that contractors and subcontractors must not discriminate among otherwise qualified employees as apprentices solely on the ground of sex, race, religion, creed, national origin, ancestry or color. Only apprentices defined in Labor Code section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards and who have written apprentice contracts, may be employed on public works in apprenticeable occupations. If federal funds are used to pay for the Work, Contractor and any subcontractor agree to comply, as applicable, with the labor and reporting requirements of the Davis -Bacon Act (40 USC § 276a-7), the Copeland Act (40 USC § 276c and 18 USC § 874), and the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 USC § 327 and following). 7. Hours of Labor: Contractor acknowledges that under California Labor Code sections 1810 and following, eight hours of labor constitutes a legal day's work. Contractor will forfeit as a penalty to City the sum of $25.00 for each worker employed in the execution of this Contract by Contractor or any subcontractor for each calendar day during which such worker is required or permitted to work more than eight hours in any one calendar day and 40 hours in any one calendar week in violation of the provisions of Labor Code section 1810. 8. Apprentices: Attention is directed to the provisions in Sections 1777.5 (Chapter 1411, Statutes of 1968) and 1777.6 of the Labor Code concerning the employment of apprentices by the Contractor or any Subcontractor under him. Section 1777.5, as amended, requires the Contractor or Subcontractor employing tradesmen in any apprenticeable occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The certificate will also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the perfonnance of the Contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases must not be less than one to five except: A. When unemployment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 days prior to the request for certificate, or B. When the number of apprentices in training in that area exceeds a ratio of one to five, or C. When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis statewide or locally, or D. When the assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works Contract would create a condition which would jeopardize his life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or if the specified task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of such a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman, or Structure Demolition at 100 Avram Avenue, 120 Avram Avenue and 6750 Commerce Boulevard, Rohnert Park, CA Part 1: Bid Documents Rohnert Park City Proj. No. 2016-02 Page 1-20 LA 448340043-9827 v] E. When the Contractor provides evidence that he employs registered apprentices on all of his Contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen. The Contractor is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship program if he employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such Contracts and if other Contractors on the public works site are making such contributions. The Contractor and any Subcontractor under him must comply with the requirements of Section 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules, and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices. . Labor Discrimination: Attention is directed to Section 1735 of the Labor Code, which reads as follows: "A contractor must not discriminate in the employment of persons upon public works on any basis listed in subdivision (a) of Section 12940 of the Government Code, as those bases are defined in Sections 12926 and 12926.1 of the Government Code, except as otherwise provided in Section 12940 of the Government Code. Every contractor for public works who violates this section is subject to all the penalties imposed for a violation of this chapter. " 10. Workmen's Compensation Insurance: In accordance with the provisions of Article 5, Chapter 1, Part 7, Division 2 (commencing with Section 1860) and Chapter 4, Part 1, Division 4 (commencing with Section 3700) of the Labor Code of the State of California, the Contractor is required to secure the payment of compensation to his employees and must for that purpose obtain and keep in effect adequate Workmen's Compensation Insurance. The undersigned Contractor is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which requires every employer to be insured against liability for workmen's compensation or to undertake self- insurance in accordance with the provisions of that Code, and will comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this contract. 11. Indemnityand id Insurance: To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor must indemnify, hold harmless, release and defend City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents, volunteers, and consultants from and against any and all actions, claims, demands, damages, disability, losses, expenses including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and other defense costs and liabilities of any nature that may be asserted by any person or entity including Contractor, in whole or in part, arising out of Contractor's activities hereunder, including the activities of other persons employed or utilized by Contractor including subcontractors hired by the Contractor in the performance of this Agreement excepting liabilities due to the active negligence of the City. This indemnification obligation is not limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages or compensation payable by or for Contractor under Worker's Compensation, disability or other employee benefit acts or the terms, applicability or limitations of any insurance held or provided by Contractor and must continue to bind the parties after termination/completion of this Agreement. Contractor shall procure and maintain throughout the time for performance of the work under this Structure Demolition at 100 Avram Avenue; 120 Avram Avenue and 6750 Commerce Boulevard, Rolmert Park, CA Part 1: Bid Documents Rohnert Park City Proj. No. 2016-02 Page 1-21 LA (/4834-0043-9827 v1 Contract the insurance required by the Special Provisions. The requirement that Contractor procure and maintain insurance shall in no way be construed to limit the Contractor's duty to indemnify City as provided in the paragraph above. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. 12. City Ri ht of Termination and Right to Complete the Work. The City may terminate the Contract when conditions encountered during the work make it impossible or impracticable to proceed, or when the City is prevented from proceeding with the Contract by act of God, by law, or by official action of a public authority.

G. Contractor breaches or fails to perform any obligation or duty under the Contract. Upon the occurrence of a default by Contractor, the Director will serve a written notice of default on Contractor specifying the nature of the default and the steps needed to correct the default. Unless Contractor cures the default within 10 days after the service of such notice, or satisfactory arrangements acceptable to City for the correction or elimination of such default are made, as determined by City, City may thereafter terminate this Contract by serving written notice on Contractor. In such case, Contractor will not be entitled to receive any further payment, except for Work actually completed prior to such termination in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents. In event of any such termination, City will also immediately serve written notice of the termination upon Contractor's surety. The surety will have the right to take over and perform pursuant to this Contract; provided, however, that if the surety does not give City written notice of its intention to take over and perform this Contract within five days after service of the notice of termination or does not commence performance within 10 days from the date of such notice, City may take over the Work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or by any other method it may deem advisable for the account and at the expense of Contractor.

It is assumed that contractor submittal review will include up to two rounds of pre -abatement submittal review and a single round of post -abatement submittal review. 2. It is assumed that GHD onsite observation of abatement contractor work will be limited to asbestos abatement and GHD's observation scope will not include lead -impaction work. 3. Air sampling within negative pressure containments are to be conducted using five TEM sampling cassettes and aggressive sampling methods (fan(s), leaf -blower) per containment. It is assumed that the number of air sampling events denoted herein is sufficient to clear all contractor abatement areas. 4. It is assumed that all containments where post -abatement air sampling is to be conducted will be maintained by the contractor under negative pressure until air sample laboratory results meeting the release criteria have been received by GHD and transmitted to the City. 5. it is assumed that the contractor will have access to all abatement areas within the scope of this task and work in each area. 6. It is assumed that the contractor will be able to complete all work associated with this task through a single equipment mobilization and demobilization (excluding personnel arrival/departure). 7. It is assumed that active abatement will occur on consecutive weekdays (Monday through Friday) during regular construction hours (0700 to 1700). 8. It is assumed that no perimeter air sampling is to occur in association with this project. 9. It is assumed a single abatement contractor is to perform the work specified in this proposal. 10. It is assumed that the abatement contractor's containment(s) and regulated area(s) constructed for each task will enclose an area sufficient to remove the largest amount of hazardous materials given the existing conditions at the site (i.e. containments will be constructed to maximize the abatement scope that can be accomplished within a single containment, thereby minimizing the total number of containments). 11. Access to all areas of the project site is to be provided by the City and/or abatement contractor as needed by GHD to complete this scope of work in the specified time and within the specified number of site visits. 12. Electrical power and lighting is to be provided to GHD by contractor and/or the City, as needed, to complete post -abatement air sampling within applicable containments at the conclusion of contractor's abatement work. 13. If additional site visits and/or samples are necessitated to complete the project, such work may be performed, as authorized in writing by the City, on a time and materials, as needed, basis at the established labor rates and laboratory costs. 14. GHD work excludes services not explicitly included in this proposal or the Fee Estimate (Appendix A). Fee Estirnate The estimated time and materials for professional services is $25,594. A fee breakdown is included as an attachment. Closing It is assumed that upon agreement of the scope of work for the professional services for this contract amendment, GHD will be issued an amendment on our existing task order or issued a new task order for this project. The Notice to Proceed will be the date of written authorization by the City to proceed, which may pre -date City execution of the professional services agreement.
