All barricades adjacent to any open runway or taxiway safety area, or apron must be as low as possible to the ground, and no more than 18 in high, exclusive of supplementary lights and flags. Barricades shall be of low mass; easily collapsible upon contact with an aircraft or any of its components; and weighted or sturdily attached to the surface to prevent displacement from prop wash, jet blast, wing vortex, or other surface wind currents. If affixed to the surface, they shall be frangible within 3 inches of the ground.
(5) Air Operations Area - Runway/Taxiway Intersections. The contractor shall use highly reflective barricades with lights to close taxiways leading to closed runways.
Albany Municipal Airport Construction Safety and Phasing Plan ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 7
(6) Air Operations Area - Other. Beyond runway and taxiway object free areas and aprons, the contractor may use various materials, including railroad ties, sawhorses, jersey barriers, or barrels as barricades intended for construction vehicles and personnel.
(7) Maintenance. The construction specifications include a provision requiring the contractor to have a person on call 24 hours a day for emergency maintenance of airport hazard lighting and barricades. The contractor shall file the contact person’s information with the airport operator. Lighting shall be checked for proper operation at least once per day, preferably at dusk.
221. Protection of Runway and Taxiway Safety Areas. Runway and taxiway safety areas, obstacle free zones (OFZ), object free areas (OFA), and approach surfaces shall be protected at all times by the contractor. This project is being coordinated with the Seattle ADO. Submittal of a separate Form 7460-1 is required. The project drawings show all safety areas, object free areas, obstacle free zones and approach departure surfaces affected by construction.
a. Runway Safety Area (RSA). A runway safety area is the defined surface surrounding the runway prepared or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to airplanes in the event of an undershoot, overshoot, or excursion from the runway. Construction activities within the existing RSA are subject to the following conditions:
(1) No construction may occur within the RSA while the runway is open for aircraft operations.
(2) Excavations
(a) Open trenches or excavations are not permitted within the RSA while the runway is open. If the runway must be opened before excavations are backfilled, the contractor shall cover the excavations appropriately. Covering for open excavations shall be designed to allow the safe operation of the heaviest aircraft operating on the runway without damage to the aircraft.
(b) The contractor shall prominently mark open trenches and excavations at the construction site with red or orange flags, as approved by the airport operator, and light them with red lights during hours of restricted visibility or darkness.
(3) Erosion Control. Soil erosion must be controlled to maintain RSA standards, that is, the RSA must be cleared and graded and have no potentially hazardous ruts, humps, depressions, or other surface variations, and be capable, under dry conditions, of supporting snow removal equipment, aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment, and the occasional passage of aircraft without causing structural damage to the aircraft.
b. Runway Object Free Area (ROFA). Construction, including excavations, may be permitted in the ROFA. However, equipment must be removed from the ROFA when not in use, and material shall not be stockpiled in the ROFA.
c. Taxiway Safety Area (TSA). A taxiway safety area is a defined surface alongside the taxiway prepared or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to an airplane unintentionally departing the taxiway. Construction activities within the TSA are subject to the following conditions:
Albany Municipal Airport Construction Safety and Phasing Plan ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 8
(1) No construction may occur within the TSA while the taxiway is open for aircraft operations.
(2) Excavations.
(a) Open trenches or excavations are not permitted within the TSA while the taxiway is open. If the taxiway must be opened before excavations are backfilled, the contractor shall cover the excavations appropriately. Covering for open trenches must be designed to allow the safe operation of the heaviest aircraft operating on the taxiway without damage to the aircraft.
(b) The contractor shall prominently mark open trenches and excavations at the construction site with red or orange flags, as approved by the airport operator, and light them with red lights during hours of restricted visibility or darkness.
(3) Erosion Control. Soil erosion must be controlled to maintain TSA standards, that is, the TSA must be cleared and graded and have no potentially hazardous ruts, humps, depressions, or other surface variations, and be capable, under dry conditions, of supporting snow removal equipment, aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment, and the occasional passage of aircraft without causing structural damage to the aircraft.
d. Taxiway Object Free Area (TOFA). Unlike the Runway Object Free Area, aircraft wings regularly penetrate the taxiway object free area during normal operations. Thus, the restrictions are more stringent. No construction may occur within the taxiway object free area while the taxiway is open for aircraft operations.
e. Obstacle Free Zone (OFZ). Personnel, material, or equipment may not penetrate the OFZ while the runway is open for aircraft operations.
f. Runway Approach/Departure Areas. Personnel, materials, and equipment shall remain clear of the applicable approach and departure surfaces.
(1) Construction activity in a runway approach/departure area. Runway 16-34 will remain open during construction. Construction operations will have limited activity within the Runway 34 approach/departure area. The height of all equipment used in this area shall be restricted to prevent penetrations to the approach or departure slopes of the runway. See project drawings for more information.
(2) Caution regarding partial runway closures. N/A
(3) Caution regarding displaced thresholds. N/A
222. Other Limitations on Construction:
a. Prohibitions.
(1) The use of tall equipment is prohibited unless a Form 7460-1 determination letter has been issued by FAA.
Albany Municipal Airport Construction Safety and Phasing Plan ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 9
(2) Open flame welding or torches are not permitted unless fire safety precautions are provided and the airport operator has approved their use.
(3) The use of electrical blasting caps on or within 1,000 feet of the airport property is prohibited.
(4) The use of flare pots within the AOA is prohibited.
b. Restrictions.
(1) Construction suspension required during specific airport operations. The airport owner shall have the authority to suspend the work wholly, or in part, for such period as necessary, due to conditions considered unfavorable for the prosecution of the work, or due to the failure of the Contractor to carry out orders given or perform provisions of the contract.
(2) Areas that cannot be worked on simultaneously. The contractor shall refer to the Contract Drawings for a description of areas that cannot be worked on simultaneously.
(3) Day or night construction restrictions. Any vehicle operating in the AOA during hours of darkness or reduced visibility must be equipped with an amber flashing beacon. When used during periods of darkness, all barricades, warning signs, and hazard markings shall be suitably illuminated.
(4) Seasonal construction restrictions. N/A

49 Appendix 3 Safety and Phasing Plan Checklist September 29, 2011 AC 150/5370-2F
Appendix 4. Construction Project Daily Safety Inspection Checklist The situations identified below are potentially hazardous conditions that may occur during airport construction projects. Safety area encroachments, unauthorized and improper ground vehicle operations, and unmarked or uncovered holes and trenches near aircraft operating surfaces pose the most prevalent threats to airport operational safety during airport construction projects. The list below is one tool that the airport operator or contractor may use to aid in identifying and correcting potentially hazardous conditions. It should be customized as appropriate for each project.
Potentially Hazardous Conditions
Item Action Required or None
Excavation adjacent to runways, taxiways, and aprons improperly backfilled. □
Mounds of earth, construction materials, temporary structures, and other obstacles near any open runway, taxiway, or taxi lane; in the related Object Free area □ and aircraft approach or departure areas/zones; or obstructing any sign or marking.
Runway resurfacing projects resulting in lips exceeding
3 in (7.6 cm) from pavement edges and ends. □
Heavy equipment (stationary or mobile) operating or idle near AOA, in runway approaches and departures areas, or in OFZ. □ Equipment or material near NAVAIDs that may degrade or impair radiated signals and/or the monitoring of navigation and visual aids. Unauthorized □ or improper vehicle operations in localizer or glide slope critical areas, resulting in electronic interference and/or facility shutdown. Tall and especially relatively low visibility units (that is, equipment with slim profiles) — cranes, drills, and similar objects — located in critical areas, such as OFZ □ and approach zones. Improperly positioned or malfunctioning lights or unlighted airport hazards, such as holes or excavations, on any apron, open taxiway, or open taxi lane or in a □ related safety, approach, or departure area. Obstacles, loose pavement, trash, and other debris on or near AOA. Construction debris (gravel, sand, mud, paving materials) on airport pavements may result in □ aircraft propeller, turbine engine, or tire damage. Also, loose materials may blow about, potentially causing personal injury or equipment damage.
51 Appendix 4 Construction Project Daily Safety Inspection Checklist AC 150/5370-2F September 29, 2011
Item Action Required or None Inappropriate or poorly maintained fencing during construction intended to deter human and animal intrusions into the AOA. Fencing and other markings that are inadequate to separate construction areas from □ open AOA create aviation hazards. Improper or inadequate marking or lighting of runways (especially thresholds that have been displaced or runways that have been closed) and taxiways that could cause pilot confusion and provide a potential for a runway incursion. Inadequate or improper methods of □ marking, barricading, and lighting of temporarily closed portions of AOA create aviation hazards. Wildlife attractants — such as trash (food scraps not collected from construction personnel activity), grass seeds, tall grass, or standing water — on or near □ airports. Obliterated or faded temporary markings on active operational areas. □ Misleading or malfunctioning obstruction lights. Unlighted or unmarked obstructions in the approach to any open runway pose aviation hazards. □ Failure to issue, update, or cancel NOTAMs about airport or runway closures or other construction related airport conditions. □ Failure to mark and identify utilities or power cables. Damage to utilities and power cables during construction activity can result in the loss of runway / taxiway lighting; loss of navigation, visual, or approach □ aids; disruption of weather reporting services; and/or loss of communications. Restrictions on ARFF access from fire stations to the runway / taxiway system or airport buildings. □ Lack of radio communications with construction vehicles in airport movement areas. □ Objects, regardless of whether they are marked or flagged, or activities anywhere on or near an airport that could be distracting, confusing, or alarming to □ pilots during aircraft operations. Water, snow, dirt, debris, or other contaminants that temporarily obscure or derogate the visibility of runway/taxiway marking, lighting, and pavement edges. Any condition or factor that obscures or □ diminishes the visibility of areas under construction. Spillage from vehicles (gasoline, diesel fuel, oil) on active pavement areas, such as runways, taxiways, aprons, and airport roadways. □
Appendix 4 Construction Project Daily Safety Inspection Checklist 52 September 29, 2011 AC 150/5370-2F
Item Action Required or None Failure to maintain drainage system integrity during construction (for example, no temporary drainage provided when working on a drainage system). □ Failure to provide for proper electrical lockout and tagging procedures. At larger airports with multiple maintenance shifts/workers, construction contractors should make provisions for coordinating work on □ circuits. Failure to control dust. Consider limiting the amount of area from which the contractor is allowed to strip turf. □ Exposed wiring that creates an electrocution or fire ignition hazard. Identify and secure wiring, and place it in conduit or bury it. □
Site burning, which can cause possible obscuration. □ Construction work taking place outside of designated work areas and out of phase. □

In all cases the joint where the connectors come together shall be wrapped with at least one layer of rubber or synthetic rubber tape and one layer of plastic tape, one-half lapped, extending at least 1-1/2 inches (37 mm) on each side of the joint.
c. Factory-Molded Plug-in Splices. These shall be made by plugging directly into mating connectors. In all cases, the joint where the connectors come together shall be wrapped with at least one layer of rubber or synthetic rubber tape and one layer of plastic tape, one-half lapped, extending at least 1-1/2 inches (37 mm) on each side of the joint.
d. Taped Splices. A taped splice shall be made in the following manner: Bring the cables to their final position and cut so that the conductors will butt. Remove insulation and jacket allowing for bare conductor of proper length to fit compression sleeve connector with 1/4 inch (6 mm) of bare conductor on each side of the connector. Prior to splicing, the two ends of the cable insulation shall be penciled using a tool designed specifically for this purpose and for cable size and type. Do not use emery paper on splicing operation since it contains metallic particles. The copper conductors shall be thoroughly cleaned. Join the conductors by inserting them equidistant into the compression connection sleeve. Crimp conductors firmly in place with crimping tool that requires a complete crimp before tool can be removed. Test the crimped connection by pulling on the cable. Scrape the insulation to assure that the entire surface over which the tape will be applied (plus 3 inches (75 mm) on each end) is clean. After scraping wipe the entire area with a clean lint-free cloth. Do not use solvents.
Apply high-voltage rubber tape one-half lapped over bare conductor. This tape should be tensioned as recommended by the manufacturer. Voids in the connector area may be eliminated by highly elongating the tape, stretching it just short of its breaking point. Throughout the rest of the splice less tension should be used. Always attempt to exactly half-lap to produce a uniform buildup. Continue buildup to 1-1/2 times cable diameter over the body of the splice with ends tapered a distance of approximately 1 inch (25 mm) over the original jacket. Cover rubber tape with two layers of vinyl pressure-sensitive tape one-half lapped. Do not use glyptol or lacquer over vinyl tape as they react as solvents to the tape. No further cable covering or splice boxes are required.
e. Heat-Shrinked Splices. Heat shrinkable tubing shall be installed following manufacturer’s instructions. Direct flame heating shall not be permitted unless recommended by the manufacturer. Cable surfaces within the limits of the heat-shrink application shall be clean and free of contaminates prior to application.

Trench for gas company gas line feed to the new EEB shall be meet the requirements of the gas company. Coordinate with the gas company.
Unless otherwise shown on the plans, a layer of fine earth material, at least 4 inches (100 mm) thick (loose measurement) shall be placed in the bottom of the trench as bedding for the conduit. The bedding material shall consist of soft dirt, sand or other fine fill, and it shall contain no particles that would be retained on a 1/4-inch (6 mm) sieve. The bedding material shall be tamped until firm.
Unless otherwise shown on plans, conduits shall be installed so that the tops of all conduits are at least 18 inches (45 cm) below the finished grade.
When two or more individual conduits intended to carry conductors of equivalent voltage insulation rating are installed in the same trench without concrete encasement, they shall be spaced not less than 2 inches (50 mm) apart (measured from outside wall to outside wall) in a horizontal direction and not less than 6 inches (150 mm) apart in a vertical direction. Where two or more individual conduits intended to carry conductors of differing voltage insulation rating are installed in the same trench without concrete encasement, they shall be spaced not less than 3 inches (75 mm) apart (measured from outside wall to outside wall) in a horizontal direction and lot less than 6 inches (150 mm) apart in a vertical direction.
Trenches shall be opened the complete length between normal termination points before conduit is installed so that if any unforeseen obstructions are encountered, proper provisions can be made to avoid them.
Conduits shall be installed using conduit spacers. No. 4 reinforcing bars shall be driven vertically into the soil a minimum of 6 inches to anchor the assembly into the earth while backfilling. For this purpose, the spacers shall be fastened down with locking collars attached to the vertical bars. Spacers shall be installed at 5 -foot intervals. Spacers shall be in the proper sizes and configurations to fit the conduits. Locking collars and spacers shall be submitted to the Engineer for review prior to use.

The location of each end and of each change of direction of conduits and duct banks shall be marked by a concrete slab marker 2 feet (60 cm) square and 4-6 inches (100-150 mm) thick extending approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the surface. The markers shall also be located directly above the ends of all conduits or duct banks, except where they terminate in a junction/access structure or building.
The Contractor shall impress the word “DUCT” or “CONDUIT” on each marker slab. The Contractor shall also impress on the slab the number and size of conduits beneath the marker along with all other necessary information as determined by the Engineer. The letters shall be 4 inches (100 mm) high and 3 inches (75 mm) wide with width of stroke 1/2-inch (12 mm) and 1/4-inch (6 mm) deep or as large as the available space permits. Furnishing and installation of duct markers is incidental to the respective duct pay item.
110-3.5 BACKFILLING FOR CONDUITS. For conduits, 4 inches (100 cm) of sand, soft earth, or other fine fill (loose measurement) shall be placed around the conduits ducts and carefully tamped around and over them with hand tampers. The remaining trench shall then be backfilled and compacted to 95% maximum density from ASTM D 698, material used for back fill shall be select material not larger than 4 inches in diameter.
Trenches shall not contain pools of water during back, filling operations.
The trench shall be completely backfilled and tamped level with the adjacent surface: except that, where sod is to be placed over the trench, the backfilling shall be stopped at a depth equal to the thickness of the sod to be used, with proper allowance for settlement.
Any excess excavated material shall be removed and disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the Engineer.
110-3.6 BACKFILLING FOR DUCT BANKS . After the concrete has cured, the remaining trench shall be backfilled and compacted to 100% maximum density from ASTM D 698, except that the material used for backfill shall be select material not larger than 4 inches in diameter. In addition to the requirements, where duct banks are installed under pavement, one moisture/density test per lift shall be made for each 250 linear feet of duct bank or one work period's construction, whichever is less.
Backfill shall be with the materials as specified on the drawings to the requirements specified and if not otherwise specified to 95% of ASTM D 698 in non-pavement areas and 100% of ASTM D 698 for paved areas
Trenches shall not contain pools of water during backfilling operations.

======
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).
------
The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is union or non-union.
Union Identifiers
An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" denotes that the union classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2011. The first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and the four-digit number, 0198, that follows 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. The date, 07/01/2011, following these characters is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be July 1, 2011 in the above example.
Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the rates.
0000/9999: weighted union wage rates will be published annually each January.
Non-Union Identifiers
Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived
ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 18 OR130001 08/02/2013 - Highway - Statewide
from survey data by computing average rates and are not union rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007 5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union majority rates, LA indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued as a General Wage Determination on that date.
Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change until a new survey is conducted.
------
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 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:
Wage and Hour Administrator U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210
ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 19 OR130001 08/02/2013 - Highway - Statewide
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.

======
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).
------
The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of "identifiers" that indicate whether the particular rate is union or non-union.
Union Identifiers
An identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than "SU" denotes that the union classification and rate have found to be prevailing for that classification. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2011. The first four letters , PLUM, indicate the international union and the four-digit number, 0198, that follows 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. The date, 07/01/2011, following these characters is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate/collective bargaining agreement which would be July 1, 2011 in the above example.
Union prevailing wage rates will be updated to reflect any changes in the collective bargaining agreements governing the rates.
0000/9999: weighted union wage rates will be published annually each January.
Non-Union Identifiers
Classifications listed under an "SU" identifier were derived from survey data by computing average rates and are not union rates; however, the data used in computing these rates may include both union and non-union data. Example: SULA2004-007
ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 7 OR130073 08/02/2013 – Heavy – Linn County
5/13/2010. SU indicates the rates are not union majority rates, LA indicates the State of Louisiana; 2004 is the year of the survey; and 007 is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. A 1993 or later date, 5/13/2010, indicates the classifications and rates under that identifier were issued as a General Wage Determination on that date.
Survey wage rates will remain in effect and will not change until a new survey is conducted.

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 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:
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
ALB002 Perimeter Fence Improvements 8 OR130073 08/02/2013 – Heavy – Linn County
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.
