CP–3 MBE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

The Contract that will result from the solicitation will require the Contractor to make good faith efforts to comply with the Minority Business Enterprise (“MBE”) Program and Contract provisions. The MDTA and the Contractor acknowledge and agree that the State will incur damages, including but not limited to loss of goodwill, detrimental impact on economic development, and diversion of internal staff resources, if the Contractor does not make good faith efforts to comply with the requirements of the MBE Program and MBE contract provisions. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the damages the State might reasonably be anticipated to accrue as a result of such lack of compliance are difficult to ascertain with precision and that liquidated damages present a fair, reasonable, and appropriate estimation of damages.

Therefore, upon a determination by the MDTA that the Contractor failed to make good faith efforts to comply with one or more of the specified MBE Program requirements or Contract provisions and without the MDTA being required to present any evidence of the amount or character of actual damages sustained, the Contractor agrees to pay liquidated damages to the MDTA at the rates set forth below. Such liquidated damages are intended to represent estimated actual damages and are not intended as a penalty. The Contractor expressly agrees that the MDTA may withhold payment on any invoices as a set-off against liquidated damages owed. The Contractor further agrees that for each specified violation, the agreed upon liquidated damages are reasonably proximate to the loss the State is anticipated to incur as a result of such violation.

A. Failure to submit each monthly payment report in full compliance with COMAR 21.11.03.13B (3): $23.00 per day until the monthly report is submitted as required.

B. Failure to include in its agreements with MBE subcontractors a provision requiring submission of payment reports in full compliance with COMAR 21.11.03.13B (4): $82.00 per MBE subcontractor.

C. Failure to comply with COMAR 21.11.03.12 in terminating, canceling, or changing the scope of work/value of a contract with an MBE subcontractor and/or amendment of the MBE participation schedule: the difference between the dollar value of the MBE participation commitment on the MBE participation schedule for that specific MBE firm and the dollar value of the work performed by that MBE firm for the contract.

D. Failure to meet the Contractor’s total MBE participation goal and subgoal commitments: the difference between the dollar value of the total MBE participation commitment on the MBE participation schedule and the MBE participation actually achieved.

Notwithstanding the use of liquidated damages, the MDTA reserves the right to terminate the contract and exercise all other rights and remedies provided in the contract or by law.

OCCUPYING WETLANDS

The Contractor is hereby alerted to the importance of preserving wetland areas. The Administration, in conjunction with the various environmental agencies, has developed these Contract Documents so as to minimize or eliminate disturbance and damage to existing wetland areas. In order to accomplish this, the following must be rigidly adhered to: a. Prior to performing any work on the project, the areas of wetland will be identified and marked as directed by the Administration. All personnel of the Contractor or sub-contractors shall be alerted to these designated areas. b. The Contractor or sub-contractors shall not impact any wetland or waterway, whether it be permanently or temporarily unless otherwise stipulated in the permit application and approved as an authorized action by the appropriate regulatory agency. No fill shall be placed in these areas without a permit. c. If a Contractor or sub-contractor has to impact a wetland or waterway that is not covered by an existing wetland permit, they shall immediately notify the Engineer. The Engineer will notify the Environmental Programs Division to determine the extent of any permit modification. At that time the Environmental Programs Division will request a permit modification or submit a permit application. d. If the Contractor impacts any wetland or waterway for which they do not have a wetland permit, they shall be responsible for restoring the wetland areas and possibly mitigating the wetland impacts to the full satisfaction of the environmental agencies, which could include monetary compensation. e. The cost of restoration and mitigation of the impacted areas shall be at no additional cost to the Administration.

The importance of not abusing the wetland areas cannot be overemphasized. Abuse of wetland areas could jeopardize the operation of the total Contract and could be cause for a shut-down. If a shutdown occurs because of the Contractor's failure to secure the required permits (i.e. the Contractor’s method of work includes impacts not approved by previously acquired permits), the Contractor’s negligence or operations, all costs and damages to the Contractor and to the State will be at no additional cost to the Administration. Noncompliance with these requirements will not be considered for an extension of Contract time.

The RCRA Universal Waste Rule (UWR), 40 CFR 273, was promulgated as a means of simplifying disposal requirements for certain hazardous materials. The UWR covers items like batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment, and fluorescent bulbs/lamps and encourages the recycling of these materials. Universal wastes shall be handled and disposed in accordance with COMAR 26.13.10. Contractor shall maintain documentation recording the recycling (or disposal) of these units. This documentation must be provided to MDTA’s Project Engineer prior to project closeout.

This portion of the specification applies to the Engineer’s Office, the Contractor’s Field Office (where applicable), and any auxiliary or temporary work site and/or office locations that are being used in association with this MDTA project. It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to provide the appropriate security, signage, containers, etc. to store, label, prepare and transport for disposal any equipment or material that falls within these categories.

1.1 Polychlorinated Biphenyls

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a family of man-made organic chemicals known as chlorinated hydrocarbons. PCBs were historically used in the United States in transformers; capacitors; motors and hydraulic systems; fluorescent light ballasts; various insulations (e.g., cable, felt, foam, cork, etc.); paints; adhesives and tapes; plastics; carbonless paper; and floor finishes.

Any equipment located on MDTA property, in the Engineer’s Office, the Contractor’s offices, or any of the Contractor’s facilities associated with this project, shall not contain PCBs. If any equipment shall be disposed (or recycled) that may potentially contain PCBs, the Contractor shall be responsible for identifying PCBs and appropriately handling that equipment for disposal. The management and disposal of PCB-containing equipment is regulated through the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). However, in the State of Maryland, MDE allows PCB-containing ballasts to also be handled and disposed as universal wastes. In either case, the Contractor shall maintain documentation for the presence (or absence) of PCBs in the equipment and the disposal of such equipment. Associated documentation must be provided to MDTA’s Project Engineer prior to project closeout.

1.2 Mercury-Containing Equipment

Mercury is a naturally occurring element. It exists as elemental mercury (metallic mercury), inorganic mercury compounds, and organic mercury compounds. It has been used in the United States to manufacture thermometers and barometers, switches, pressure gauges, and light bulbs, among other things. Because mercury cannot be created or destroyed by humans, the EPA encourages recycling equipment that contains this element so it may be recovered for proper disposal.

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000

If any equipment shall be disposed (or recycled) that may potentially contains mercury, the Contractor shall be responsible for identifying the presence (or absence) of mercury and appropriately handling that equipment for disposal. According to 40 CFR 261, mercury-containing wastes containing 0.2 ppm of mercury (determined by TCLP analysis) must be handled as a hazardous waste. Because storage, transportation and disposal guidelines for universal wastes are less stringent than those for hazardous wastes, it is in the contractor’s best interest to handle these items as universal wastes.

If mercury-containing equipment is permanently removed, leading to its discontinued use, these items should be transported and disposed of in accordance with the UWR and/or other applicable hazardous waste guidelines, based on the condition of the equipment.

Thermostats potentially containing mercury should be handled as a hazardous waste for disposal (see the Hazardous Waste Section of this specification for details). An alternative method may include contacting the manufacturer for disposal. The manufacturer may allow for the equipment to be returned for proper disposal.

The Contractor shall maintain documentation for the presence (or absence) of mercury in the equipment and the disposal of such equipment.

2. Ozone-Depleting Substances (ODS)

Prior to 1995, refrigerators and freezers were manufactured with the use of a refrigerant called chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). CFCs were used as a coolant. A refrigerant identified as hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) has been widely used in the manufacture of window air- conditioning (A/C) units and dehumidifiers. When some refrigerators and freezers are made, manufacturers may have also used a special type of foam for insulation within the unit. CFCs and HCFCs have been labeled as greenhouse gases by the EPA and are identified as ozone-depleting substances (ODS) because of their adverse impact the earth’s stratospheric ozone layer. While post- 1995 coolants (i.e., hydrofluorocarbons or HFCs) are considered to be “ozone-friendly,” even these chemicals remain a danger to the environment because the EPA has identified them as greenhouse gases.

Section 608 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) established the National Recycling and Emission Reduction Program in consideration for protecting the earth’s stratospheric ozone layer. Among other things, Section 608 prohibits the release of CFCs, HCFCs, their blends, and substitute refrigerants during service, maintenance and repairs, and during disposal at the end of their useful life. Any refrigeration equipment, air conditioning units, etc. that may contain an ODS and will be permanently decommissioned shall have the coolant properly evacuated from the equipment prior to its disposal or recycling. A company that is licensed, employing appropriately licensed personnel, in the State of Maryland to perform such activities must perform this work.

Refrigerant recovery companies are required to submit a certification form to their local EPA regional office that states the equipment used in the refrigerant recovery process is capable of recovering coolant at rates no lower than 80% for non-functional systems or 90% for functional systems. The

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000

1. General Asbestos Information

Facility-wide asbestos surveys have been performed for the William Preston Lane, Jr. Memorial Bridge (Bay Bridge) facility. Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) have been identified at the Bay Bridge campus; however, none of the asbestos materials appear to be within the project/work area of BB-3008-0000. MDTA can provide copies of existing asbestos reports and supplemental sampling documentation from applicable areas/projects.

However, if encountered or suspected materials are discovered during this project, it shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to collect samples of suspect materials identified within this specific work area. Photographic documentation of materials sampled during this process shall be collected along with physical samples. Copies of all sample data (including chain-of-custody documents) as well as photographic documentation and site notes from sampling activities shall be provided to MDTA for review and recordkeeping. All sampling activities shall be conducted by persons who are accredited with the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) as AHERA Inspectors and who hold the appropriate license for asbestos sampling activities.

If MDTA’s OEC and the Contractor use alternative methods of collecting this information (i.e., MDTA utilizes accredited employees or consultants) the same requirements for data collection and information sharing shall apply.

All documentation shall be submitted to:

Alisha Bennett, Manager Maryland Transportation Authority Office of Environment, Safety & Risk Management (OESRM) 2310 Broening Highway Baltimore, Maryland 21224 [email protected]

Disclaimer: All of the findings and conclusions of MDTA’s asbestos inspection reports are not based on scientific certainties. MDTA is not able to represent that there is no potential presence for asbestos beyond what the materials and areas that are documented as being sampled in the facility reports on file. The Contractor will be fully responsible for any ACMs that may be encountered during this project.

2. Asbestos Acknowledgement Form

Although MDTA does not anticipate this project involving the removal or disturbance of ACMs, all MDTA contractors working at facilities where asbestos has been identified must be made aware of the presence of asbestos at that facility.

For every calendar day that the contract remains uncompleted after the expiration of the contract time specified herein, or amended by extra work authorization, change orders or supplemental agreements, the Contractor will be liable for Liquidated Damages. The amount of Liquidated Damages shall be One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per Calendar Day assessed for each Calendar Day any portion of the work remains uncompleted beyond 852 Calendar Days (Project Substantial Completion). This amount shall be deducted from any money due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as Liquidated Damages. Damages in excess of any retained percentage shall be paid to the MDTA by the Contractor.

Some items of work to be completed under BB-2819-000 are dependent upon the scheduled completion of BB-3008-0000 activities. Likewise, some items of work to be completed under BB- 3008-000 are dependent upon the scheduled completion of BB-2819-0000 activities, including pavement resurfacing performed by BB-2919-0000 prior to the installation of illuminated pavement markers by BB-3008-0000. Failure of the BB-3008-0000 activities to be completed on schedule will result in delays to BB-2819-0000 and subsequently BB-3008-0000. The BB-3008-0000 contractor is required to have completed all work activities requiring temporary traffic control devices as shown on the Contract plans and to have removed all temporary traffic control devices as shown on the Contract Plans from the roadway by June 30, 2021 so that the BB-2819-0000 contractor can complete pavement resurfacing work. The BB-2819-0000 Contract is scheduled for completion by August 30, 2021, at which time, the BB-3008-0000 Contractor can proceed with illuminated pavement marker installation.

Liquidated damages in the amount of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00) per Calendar Day will be assessed for each Calendar Day any work requiring temporary traffic control devices as shown on the Contract plans is not completed and/or temporary traffic control devices as shown on the Contract Plans remain installed on the roadway after June 30, 2021. The amount of Liquidated Damages shall be deducted from any money due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as Liquidated Damages. Damages in excess of any retained percentage shall be paid to the MDTA by the Contractor. These liquidated damages shall also apply for any changes the Contractor proposes to the temporary traffic control that are approved by MDTA. These liquidated damages do not apply to remaining contract work that can be completed using standard temporary work shift type closures as permitted by the Contract Documents and the associated temporary traffic control devices for their implementation. 82

In addition to the provisions of GP-8.01 (Subcontracting), the following shall apply on MDTA Contracts:

The subcontractors named in the Contractor’s bid and approved by the MDTA and those approved when subsequently submitted shall perform the Contract items as approved by the MDTA. Requests for permission to sublet, assign, or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Contract shall be in writing and include the item number or numbers and the dollar value. The Contractor shall give assurance that the minimum wage for labor, as specified in the Contract Documents, shall apply to labor performed on all work sublet, assigned, or otherwise disposed of.

When a subcontractor has been approved by the MDTA for the performance of specific items of work on the Contract, the MDTA will not allow the Contractor to substitute another subcontractor, except in the event the Contractor requests in writing that the approved subcontractor be relieved of the necessity of performance of the work. Any change of subcontractors shall be requested in writing by the Contractor and shall have the written concurrence of the previously designated subcontractor. Concurrence shall not be unreasonably delayed, in the judgment of the MDTA.

If a subcontractor does not perform to the satisfaction of the Contractor, the Contractor may request to be allowed to perform the work with his own forces or request that another subcontractor, mentioned by name, be substituted. When reasons submitted for the substitution of the subcontractor indicate that the change will be in the best interest of the MDTA, approval of the request will be granted.

Roadside production of materials, unless performed by the Contractor, shall be considered as subcontracting. This shall be construed to mean the production of crushed stone, gravel, or other materials by means of portable or semi-portable crushing, screening, or washing plants, established or reopened in the vicinity of the work for the purpose of supplying materials to be incorporated into the work on a designated project or projects.

The Contractor is responsible for making timely payments to all Subcontractors and Suppliers and providing written certification as required by Section 15-226 of the State Finance and Procurement Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland and COMAR 21.10.08. This Contract and all subcontracts issued under this Contract are subject to the provisions of Section 15-226 of the State Finance and Procurement Article and COMAR 21.10.08. A Contractor shall include in its subcontracts for work under this Contract, wording that incorporates the provisions, duties and obligations of State Finance and Procurement Article, Section 15-226 and COMAR 21.10.08.

This Contract requires the Contractor to make prompt payment to all subcontractors any undisputed amount including retainage to which the subcontractor is entitled for work under the Contract within 10 days of receiving payment from the MDTA.

Each month, the Construction Project Engineer (CPE) will review the current pay items with the Contractor to ensure that all work satisfactorily completed within specifications is included in the monthly progress payment. For payment purposes, the same quantity totals used to compute the payment to the Contractor will be the basis for payment to the subcontractor.

If the subcontractor does not receive payment within the required 10 days, the subcontractor shall notify the Project Engineer in writing of the amount in dispute including the item numbers and payment quantity for each.

The Project Engineer will then notify the Director of Construction of the dispute. The Director of Construction or his representative will verbally contact the Contractor within 48 hours to ascertain whether or not a performance dispute exists which necessitates non-payment to the subcontractor.

If a performance dispute exists, the Contractor must demonstrate that there is a valid basis to withhold payment from the subcontractor. If the Contractor withholds payment from a subcontractor, the Contractor shall provide to the subcontractor written notice of the withholding of payment. The notice shall detail the reasons for withholding payment as well as the amount. A copy of the notice shall be provided to the Surety and the Project Engineer.

If no valid dispute exists, the Contractor will be directed to make immediate payment to the subcontractor. The subcontractor will be responsible for notifying the Director of Construction if this payment is not made. Upon receipt of notification, the Director of Construction will schedule a meeting with the Contractor and subcontractor to verify and discuss the non-payment issue. This meeting will be held at the MDTA’s offices within 2 working days of the MDTA’s contact with the subcontractor.

If it is determined that the Contractor has withheld payment to the subcontractor without cause, further progress payments to the Contractor will be withheld until the subcontractor is paid. In addition, MDTA may order a suspension of work or other administrative actions as it sees fit.

A penalty will not be imposed for any period that the Director of Construction determines the subcontractor was not diligent in reporting nonpayment in conformance with the Contract documents.

If an action is taken as stated above, the Contractor shall notify the MDTA’s Project Engineer when payment is made. After the MDTA’s Project Engineer verifies that payment has been made to the subcontractor, the MDTA shall release withheld progress payments.

A Contractor or subcontractor may appeal the decision of the Director of Construction to the Chief Engineer in conformance with GP-5.15 (Disputes). The Chief Engineer will render a final decision on this issue in conformance with GP-5.15 (Disputes). A decision of the MDTA under these Terms and Conditions is not subject to judicial review or the provisions of COMAR 21.10.04.

(3) Variable Retainage. The Contract will be subject to a variable retainage based upon the MDTA’s performance evaluations of the Contractor.

Those qualifying may have retainage reduced upon request of the Contractor with consent of surety. This request must be processed through the Project Engineer. If at any time during the performance of the work, the evaluation of the Contractor changes, retainage reduction may be reconsidered.

After 15 percent project completion and upon request, Contractors with “A” evaluations for the last two years may be reduced from 5 percent to 2 percent. Project completion percentage will be based upon actual work completed (excluding monies paid for stored materials). An interim evaluation of the current project would need to be completed and must be an “A”. Contractors with “A” evaluations for the last two years may petition to have all retainage at that point released upon completion of a significant milestone. Release of full retainage will be at the discretion of the Project Engineer. Retainage will continue at 2 percent until the next milestone or completion of the contract.

At 50 percent project completion and upon request, Contractors with “B” evaluations or any combination of “A” and “B” evaluations for the last two years may be reduced from 5 percent to 2.5 percent, and remain at that level until released upon final payment. Project completion percentage will be based upon actual work completed (excluding monies paid for stored materials). An interim evaluation of the current project would need to be completed and would need to be an “A” or “B”.

Contractors with “C” evaluations or any combination of “C” and “D” evaluations for the past two years will begin and remain at 5 percent for the life of the project.

Contractors with a “D” evaluation for the last two years will begin at 5 percent. Project performance will be evaluated monthly with the retainage being raised to 10 percent for continued “D” performance.

New Bidders. Contractors who have not been previously rated by the MDTA may be eligible for a reduction in retainage. To be eligible, their past performance on highway and bridge work shall be documented by the government agency with whom they had a contract and their performance shall be documented on MDTA forms.

Contractors who do not fit into the above criteria would require a 5 percent retainage throughout the life of the Contract.

1 of 2 CATEGORY 100 PRELIMINARY SECTION 100.02 – WORK RESTRICTIONS FOR PEREGRINE FALCONS 100.02.01 GENERAL

Peregrine falcons are known to be nesting under most of MDTA bridge decks. In particular, the Peregrine falcons are currently known to be nesting at the Francis Scott Key, William Preston Lane, and Governor Harry W. Nice Memorial/Senator Thomas “Mac” Middleton bridges. There are no currently known nests at the Thomas J. Hatem. At the Millard E. Tydings, there is an unconfirmed report of Peregrine nesting. Peregrines are ranked “In Need of Conservation” in Maryland.

Bridge construction or repair work within the immediate area of the nesting Peregrine Falcons will disturb the birds and can cause nest abandonment. This could result in the death of eggs or young.

Adult peregrine falcons aggressively defend their nests, which may also pose safety problems for bridge workers. It should be understood that these falcons are aggressive, are known to dive bomb intruders during mating seasons, prior to egg hatching, and while the offspring are young. These birds fly at speeds up to 200 MPH. The nesting season for peregrine falcons in Maryland extends from 1 March through 30 June each year.

To comply with regulations of the Maryland Department of Environment and the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the Contractor should avoid work in areas where Peregrine Falcons are nesting during mating and egg hatching seasons. A time-of-year restriction for repair or construction on the bridge is in place for any work within ¼ mile (all directions) of nest sites beginning February 1 and ending 30 June of all years. Most nests are located on the anchorage piers on either side of the main channels. The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service maintains current information on nesting locations. The restriction can be waived for any nests not being used.

When the Contractor encounters a nest, the Contractor shall notify the Project Engineer immediately to determine a viable work around to minimize cost and schedule impacts. The Contractor is required to also contact the Maryland DNR and the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to provide specifics on the location where the Peregrines were encountered. The contact information is as follows:

• USFWS Contact: Mr. Craig Koppie, Ph: 410.573.4534, e-mail: [email protected] • DNR Contact: Mr. Glenn Therres, Ph: 410.260.8572, e-mail: [email protected]

The Contractor, when bidding this job, should understand that no work can take place between 1 March and 30 June within ¼ mile (distance may be adjusted by DNR/MDTA) of active nesting locations on the WPL, FSK, HWN, and other bridges where nesting is active.

The Contractor should make every attempt to work in affected areas, before the restricted season, including changing the order in which work progresses. The Contractor should take full advantage of working time when it is available by using multiple crews or working on different facilities and multiple facilities simultaneously in order to complete work within the contract time.

100.02.02 CONSTRUCTION

The Contractor is required to contact the Maryland DNR (POC: Glenn Therres, Telephone: 410.260.8572, [email protected]) prior to the start of any work on bridges inquire about the presence of protected birds. If nests are encountered that were not previously known about, stop work and contact the DNR representative.

100.02.03 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT

This item will not be measured for payment. Costs for these restrictions will be accounted for in the various bid items for labor categories and equipment. Work schedules must be adjusted to accommodate restrictions associated with nesting. Claims for delays will be analyzed and treated like any other site access cancellation as specified in the scheduling provisions.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS BB-3008-0000 10 of 16 Obtaining a Lane Closure Permit for Bay Bridge. To obtain lane closure permits, the Contractor shall use the Bay Bridge Construction Schedule website at http://www.baybridgeschedule.com. In order to obtain a login for this system, requests should be made directly to the Bay Bridge Scheduler. Once the request is received, an account will be created on the Bay Bridge Schedule Website and the credentials sent in an email response.

Request for Lane Closure Permit for Bay Bridge.

A. The Contractor shall be as detailed as possible when submitting a lane closure permit request. Including only a contract number will not suffice for “Scope of Work” or “Work Location”. It is essential that MDTA operations is aware of where the Contractor will be working and the type of equipment that will be used to determine whether other contractors will be affected by the work.

B. Once a request is submitted, the Contractor will receive an email confirmation. The Contractor name should be displayed on the schedule, under the date indicated on the request, within one week of making the request. If the Contractor’s name does not appear on the schedule after one week, please contact the Bay Bridge Scheduler as there may be an issue.

C. Please submit all requests a minimum of 10 working days prior to the anticipated work. Last minute requests can create adverse conditions for safety. Failure to submit requests on time will result in the request being denied and work not being completed.

D. To stay informed on news related to lane closures, emergencies, and weather related information, visit the “News and Events” link on the Bay Bridge Schedule website. The “News and Events” website has an option to receive email alerts. This option will allow the Contractor to receive email alerts when lane closures are changed or canceled or any other information about working on or near the Bay Bridge. In addition to email alerts, there is an exclusive Bay Bridge Twitter feed by request only. This will give the Contractor the same information from the “News and Events” page but does not require an email to sign up.

Weather Criteria.

A. Set Duration. When the duration of the closure is pre-determined and set, and/or cannot be discontinued within thirty (30) minutes or less because of the type of work or equipment being utilized.

a. No closure will be allowed if the chance of rain is greater than 35% during any hours of the scheduled closure.

b. No closure will be allowed if the chance of the frozen precipitation is greater than 25% during any hour of the schedule closure.

c. No closure will be allowed winds are expected to reach or exceed 30 mph (Wind Warnings).

d. No closure will be allowed if fog is forecasted during the scheduled closure period. 121 February 28, 2017

SPECIAL PROVISIONS BB-3008-0000 11 of 16 e. No closure will be allowed if commence when the roadway is wet.

B. Variable Duration. When the duration of the closure is not constrained by the type of the work or equipment being used and the closure can be discontinued and bridge/lanes re-opened in thirty (30) minutes or less.

a. No closure will be allowed if the chance of rain is greater than 50% during any hour of the schedule closure.

b. No closure will be allowed if the chance of frozen precipitation is greater than 35% during any hour of the schedule closure.

c. No closure will be allowed to commence when fog warning are in effect.

d. No closure will be allowed to commence when the roadway is wet.

e. No closure will be allowed when winds are expected to reach to exceed 30 mph (Wind Warnings).

Equipment and Mobilization for Cancellations Provisions. Work shift cancellations by the MDTA up to two (2) hours prior to scheduled work shall not result in claims or adjustments claims for costs incurred for equipment rental or mobilization. Cancellations within two (2) hours of the scheduled work will allow claims for actual costs incurred for labor, equipment rental, or mobilization that may be deemed reasonable by the MDTA.

Cancellation Provisions. The Contractor is alerted that cancelled lane closures are frequent at Bay Bridge. During some months, cancellation significantly exceeds the number of available periods. The Contractor should make every attempt to work during approved times or times the MDTA makes available, including changing the order in which work progresses. The Contractor should take full advantage of working time when it is available by using multiple crews simultaneously in order to complete work within the contract time.

Typically, cancellations will be made for inclement weather and unusual traffic conditions or the expectation of inclement weather and unusual traffic conditions. Refer to Weather Criteria within this section for common, but not all encompassing, reasons that closures may be cancelled.

As directed by the Engineer, temporary lane and shoulder closures will not be permitted during periods of inclement weather as described in Weather Criteria, or in the event of emergencies such as vehicle crashes or heavy traffic congestion. In the event that a temporary lane or shoulder closure must be reopened as directed by the Engineer or authorized MDTA staff, the Contractor shall evacuate all equipment, materials and personnel from the lane within 30 minutes. The MDTA reserves the right to cancel any scheduled closure for any reason. For the purposes of maintaining a Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule and for the purposes of delay claims, the following applies:

122 February 28, 2017

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS BB-3008-0000 12 of 16 A. Lane closure cancellations shall be measured in one half-day increments. Day shift cancellation will be considered a one half-day cancellation. Night shift cancellation will be considered a one half-day cancellation.

B. An MOT Dependent Activity is a work activity that can only be performed with the implementation of a temporary lane closure.

C. A Cancellation (Lane Closure Cancellation) is any event where the MDTA cancels or refuses to permit a lane closure for a shift where the Contractor has requested access and is approved to perform work on an MOT Dependent Activity that is on a critical path during an allowable lane closure period. This shall include, but not be limited to, cancellations due to weather, traffic, visibility, other Contractors working in the area, or other causes. The listed restricted periods on the calendars (holidays, race/walk events, etc.) and periods outside of the allowable lane closure schedule shall not be included as cancellations.

D. The Contractor is alerted that MDTA shall conduct four (4) daytime and four (4) nighttime closures per month on either bridge for MDTA maintenance and inspection activities. The dates of these closures within that month and which lanes to close are at the discretion of the Engineer and the Facility Administrator and may be changed without notice. Where applicable, the Contractor may elect to perform work utilizing these lane closures, but these days shall not be included as cancellations.

E. The Contractor shall assume that 50% of all allowable lane closures throughout the duration of this contract will be cancelled at the Bay Bridge.

F. On days when the Engineer adjusts the actual lane closure start or end times from the planned allowable lane closure schedule, a Lane Closure cancellation will only be counted if the duration of the lane closure is shortened by 2 hours or more. The Engineer may adjust the start and end times of lane closures for any reason, including the MDTA’s convenience.

G. On days when the Engineer cancels a work shift due to Contractor unpreparedness or failure to properly request a lane closure, a Lane Closure cancellation will not be counted on this Contract, even if the MDTA later elects to cancel lane closures for other contracts.

H. On days when the Contractor cancels a work shift due to Contractor unpreparedness, convenience, or failure to properly request a lane closure, a Lane Closure cancellation will not be counted on this Contract, even if the MDTA later elects to cancel lane closures for other contracts.

I. The CPM shall include a separate calendar for MOT Dependent Activities that accounts for the restrictions and the four (4) day time and four (4) night time MDTA Maintenance and Inspection closures per month at the Bay Bridge.

J. If the Contractor elects to complete an MOT Dependent Activity without the use of lane closures, the CPM shall be updated to remove the activity from the separate calendar.

123 February 28, 2017

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS BB-3008-0000 13 of 16 K. No delay claims shall be permitted as long as the overall number of cancelled half day shifts on the critical path of the MOT Dependent Activity separate calendar is less than or equal to 50% of the total allowable lane closures over the life of the project at the Bay Bridge.

Example Application of Cancellation Provisions. The following example contract ‘BB-17X’ is not for bidding purposes, but provides representative project durations, restrictions and cancellations that apply the above cancellation provisions:

Contract ‘BB-17X’ has a total Contract duration of 730 calendar days (1,460 half-day shifts). Over the total duration of the contract, 654 lane closures (half-day shifts) were not allowed due to the restrictions and the four (4) day time and four (4) night time MDTA Maintenance and Inspection closures per month at the Bay Bridge. Therefore, there were a total of 806 (i.e. 1,460 minus 654) planned allowable lane closures (half-day shifts). The Contractor’s calendar for MOT Dependent Activities showed that 500 lane closures (half-day shifts) were on the project critical path during allowable periods. The total contract experienced 320 cancellations of allowable lane closures (half- day shifts) for MOT Dependent Activities on the project critical path. The 320 experienced cancellations is less than 403 (i.e. 50% of 806) assumed cancellations, and therefore no delay claims will be considered.

ADD: The following after the last paragraph, “Any monetary savings…..and the Administration.”

Contractor’s requests for changes to the Allowable Lane or Shoulder Closure Schedules must be submitted in writing to the Engineer. Changes must receive written approval at least 72 hours in advance of the changes from both the facility Administrator and the MDTA’s Office of Engineering and Construction.

The Contractor will not be permitted to use any portions of the existing roadway or interfere with or impede the free flow of traffic in any manner during prohibited hours.

The Contractor must provide a means of communication to the MDTA/MSP Police detachment/barracks as a safety requirement. Acceptable forms of communication shall consist of a mobile telephone, citizens band or portable two-way radio.

When a temporary lane or shoulder closure is in effect, work shall begin within one hour after the lane or shoulder is closed. Any delay longer than one hour with no work in progress shall require the Contractor to remove the lane or shoulder closure at no additional cost to the MDTA. The Contractor’s Certified Traffic Manager shall attend pre-construction meetings and shall discuss traffic control and the Traffic Control Plan including procedures to be implemented for lane closures.

All lane and shoulder closures shall be in conformance with the approved TCP and under the direction of the Contractor’s Certified Traffic Manager and the Engineer. The Contractor shall have a certified Temporary Traffic Control Manager on site at all times active work is being completed. Additionally, the Certified Temporary Traffic Control Manager shall be made available during non-work hours in

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000 5 of 16 (c) Rating C. Controls are installed in conformance with the Contract Documents. Maintenance of controls is in conformance with minimum requirements. Stabilization requirements are being adhered to only when enforced, placing a burden on the controls. There is a good chance of controls failing during the next storm event. Stabilization of disturbed areas needs improvement. Constant monitoring is necessary. Conditions for a shutdown could arise quickly.

(d) Rating D. Controls are installed, but some are not in conformance with the Contract Documents. Maintenance of more than half of the controls is needed. Stabilization is not within the time specified. Little or no stabilization is being done. The controls will likely fail during the next storm event. The Contractor is not responsive to requests for corrective action. Corrective actions begin after five working days, if at all. Grading and related operations will be shut down by the MDTA.

(e) Rating F. Some controls have been installed. Installation and stabilization requirements are not in conformance with the Contract Documents. Controls are not maintained. The Contractor does not respond to requests for corrective action. There could easily be a major failure during the next storm event. The entire project will be shut down immediately.

308.03.07 Shutdowns. When the first grade of ‘C’ is given to a project, the Contractor shall make every effort to have all deficiencies corrected within a maximum of five working days. The project will be re-inspected at the end of this period. If it is found that the deficiencies have not been satisfactory corrected, a grade of ‘D’ will be given and all grading operations will be shut down until the project receives a ‘B’ rating.

If consecutive 'C' rating is given for other deficiencies that arise and the original deficiencies were corrected, the Contractor will be alerted that their overall effort is marginal and a grading shut down is imminent if erosion and sediment control efforts do not substantially improve within five working days.

A third consecutive ‘C’ rating will result in a shutdown of grading activities until the project receives a “B’ rating.

When a disregard for correcting these deficiencies is evident, a rating of ‘F’ will be given and the entire project will be shut down until the project receives a rating of ‘B’.

308.03.08 Noncompliance Damages. When a ‘D’ or ‘F’ is given to the project by the independent Quality Assurance Inspector, the liquidated damages amount in GP-8.09, in addition to a shutdown, will be assessed for each day the project is in noncompliance. A rating of ‘B’ is required to suspend the daily monetary damages assessment and shutdown.

In extreme cases, where degradation to a resource could occur, or if the Contractor is unresponsive to direction to take corrective action, the MDTA may elect to have these corrective actions taken by another contractor or by MDTA maintenance staff. All costs associated with this work will paid for using withheld retainage funds (in addition to the noncompliance damages assessment).

Environmental Awareness

MDTA’s Environmental Management System (EMS) is one way in which the MDTA attempts to identify and adequately manage its environmental risks and impacts. OESRM created this informational handout in support of MDTA’s EMS goals for achieving and maintaining compliance with environmental laws and regulations as well as being an environmental steward. This handout should be used as a quick reference guide.

For detailed information, or if you have any questions, please

contact OESRM. MDTA’s Intranet, under the OESRM heading, has links to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), which supplement information provided here. Detailed information regarding these aspects should be found in your project’s IFB.

Hazardous Materials

In general, hazardous materials management shall be in accordance with applicable Federal and State regulations, for example: 29 CFR 1910.1200, 29 CFR 1910.106, 29 CFR 1910.106, etc. MDTA requires that Contractors submit a Materials Management Plan (MMP) or something similar to detail their practices for managing hazardous materials on MDTA property.

Further, material storage must follow the provisions approved in the IFB and/or Contractor’s work plans (e.g., MMP) for the protection of human health and the environment; namely stormwater. 388

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000

At a minimum, MDTA requires:

• A written Hazard Communication Program • Adequately sized containers for the materials stored within • Containers shall be compatible with materials stored in them • Proper labeling of containers • Safety Data Sheets (SDS) on site

Hazardous Wastes - Storage

EPA regulations that govern the disposal of hazardous materials include Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). Hazardous waste management shall be carried out in accordance with applicable Federal and State regulations, including (but not limited to): COMAR 26.13, 40 CFR 262, 29 CFR 1910, etc.

Requirements for hazardous waste generation and storage, include, but are not limited to: • The use of appropriate containers, cabinets, storage units, etc. • Storage areas shall be properly signed (MDTA requires emergency contact #s to be posted on the storage area) • Storage areas shall be locked • Containers shall be protected from contact with stormwater, rain, snow melt, etc. • Containers shall be maintained in US DOT shippable condition • Weekly inspections shall be performed and documented (even when storage areas are empty) • Waste characterization (lab data)

All documentation shall be submitted to MDTA’s Project Engineer for recordkeeping.

Hazardous Wastes - Shipments

Hazardous waste shipments must be carried out in accordance with EPA and US DOT regulations. All hazardous waste shipments must be shipped using a hazardous waste manifest. Contact MDTA’s OESRM for EPA ID numbers.

Only a member of OESRM shall sign off on hazardous waste manifests. OESRM must be provided at least three (3) business days’ notice for hazardous waste shipments.

Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACMs)

389

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000

ACMs have been identified at most MDTA facilities. OESRM has Asbestos Management Plans (AMPs) for each facility, which are updated annually as well as tri-annual re-inspection reports. The AMPs identify the building locations and materials at each facility that contain asbestos.

Familiarize yourself with the locations of asbestos at your project site (even if your project does not entail disturbing it). Unless provisions are included in your project’s Contract/IFB, ACMs should not be disturbed in any way.

Asbestos abatement plans must be submitted to OESRM for review and approval, prior to abatement work. Asbestos waste manifest documentation must be submitted to OESRM no more than 60 days following waste shipment.

Universal Wastes

The RCRA Universal Waste Rule (UWR), 40 CFR 273, was promulgated as a means of simplifying disposal requirements for certain hazardous materials. The UWR covers items like batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment, and fluorescent bulbs/lamps and encourages the recycling of these materials. Universal wastes shall be handled and disposed in accordance with COMAR 26.13.10. Contractor shall maintain documentation recording the recycling (or disposal) of these units. This documentation must be provided to MDTA’s Project Engineer prior to project closeout.

Ozone-Depleting Substances

Prior to 1995, refrigerators and freezers were manufactured with the use of a refrigerant called chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). CFCs were used as a coolant. A refrigerant identified as hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) has been widely used in the manufacture of window air-conditioning (A/C) units and dehumidifiers. CFCs and HCFCs have been labeled as greenhouse gases by the EPA and are identified as ozone-depleting substances (ODS) because of their adverse impact the earth’s stratospheric ozone layer. While post-1995 coolants are considered to be “ozone-friendly,” even these chemicals remain a danger to the environment.

Section 608 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) prohibits the release of CFCs, HCFCs, their blends, and substitute refrigerants during service, maintenance and repairs, and during disposal at the end of their useful life. Only companies licensed, employing licensed personnel, in the State of Maryland to perform such activities shall perform this work.

WPL LUS Gantry Modification Procedure 4/7/2014

This procedure addresses the notification and testing procedure required any time a modification is made to a gantry.

Definition of Modification: A modification is defined as any change made to a LUS signal head, LUS controller, LUS cabinet, camera, wind sensor, electrical or fiber communication system, which affects its operation, and includes, but is not limited to the following:

a. Any electrical/power related change at a Gantry, including shutting off power, cycling power, rerouting power, rerouting electrical conduits, interrupting connections, installing breakers, etc. b. Any fiber optic related change at a Gantry, including rerouting fiber-optic cables, rerouting communication conduits, interrupting fiber connections, disconnecting patch cords, performing fiber optic fusion splices, etc. c. Any communication related change at a Gantry, including rerouting signal head, camera, wind sensor communication cables, rerouting communication conduits, interrupting communications connections, etc.

For each instance involving a modification to a gantry, the Contractor shall adhere to the following procedure:

1. Schedule the outage at least 2 business days in advance with the Project Engineer, the WPL Facility Administrator and/or his designees. Follow all other normal scheduling processes for bridge access and MOT. This procedure does not replace those processes. Please note that no two-gantries can be down at any point in time, and no gantry should be taken down for more than 2 consecutive days. Also, there are four (4) critical gantries: N-1/S-1, S-10, S-11, N-17, N-18, and N-26. Anytime a modification is required at a critical gantry, the WPL Administrator will dictate additional steps, based on the type and duration of the modification. 2. Under no circumstances are changes permitted to any part of the Lane Use Signal (LUS) system that may affect signals and two-way operation without advance notification and approval of the WPL Administrator or Deputy Administrator. 3. For any modification, complete the form in Attachment 1, and provide written email notification, and attach the completed form, at least 1 business day in advance to the following individuals: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected].

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

SPECIAL PROVISIONS Contract No. BB-3008-0000

4. No visits to gantries in an open lane or software changes are permitted while the system is operating in a contra-flow (2-way) operation. 5. Contact AOC South, at 410-537-6615, before the modifications are made. Be sure the current condition is understood and documented so there is no mis-guided blame should a problem exist before modifications are made (e.g., ask if there are any current issues with the gantry LUSs, cameras, wind sensors, etc.). Note the name, date, and time of the operator you spoke with. Keep for your records, and keep in mind the AOC South telephone lines are recorded. 6. After work is complete, contact AOC South, to ensure the all devices are operating exactly the same as they were prior to the modification, as explained below. a. Changes Affecting Signal Heads - if a signal head was modified (including any communication or electrical changes affecting its operation), contact AOC South, and ensure AOC South can turn the head Red, Yellow, and Green (may only be done during a total bridge closure using the On-Time LUS Software; if only a lane closure is in place, a test with a Yellow display will suffice), and that the central system is able to poll the device and does not report back any question marks (indicating a communication problem) or a black display (indicating an unknown state).

THIS AFFIDAVIT MUST BE INCLUDED WITH THE BID/PROPOSAL. IF THE BIDDER/OFFEROR FAILS TO ACCURATELY COMPLETE AND SUBMIT THIS AFFIDAVIT AS REQUIRED, THE BID SHALL BE DEEMED NOT RESPONSIVE OR THE PROPOSAL NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF BEING SELECTED FOR AWARD.

In connection with the bid/proposal submitted in response to Solicitation No. , I affirm the following:

1. MBE Participation (PLEASE CHECK ONLY ONE)

I have met the overall certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) participation goal of percent ( %) and the following subgoals, if applicable: percent ( %) for African American-owned MBE firms percent ( %) for Hispanic American-owned MBE firms percent ( %) for Asian American-owned MBE firms percent ( %) for Women-owned MBE firms I agree that these percentages of the total dollar amount of the Contract, for the MBE goal and subgoals (if any), will be performed by certified MBE firms as set forth in the MBE Participation Schedule - Part 2 of the MDOT MBE Form B (State-Funded Contracts). OR I conclude that I am unable to achieve the MBE participation goal and/or subgoals. I hereby request a waiver, in whole or in part, of the overall goal and/or subgoals. Within 10 business days of receiving notice that our firm is the apparent awardee or as requested by the Procurement Officer, I will submit a written waiver request and all required documentation in accordance with COMAR 21.11.03.11. For a partial waiver request, I agree that certified MBE firms will be used to accomplish the percentages of the total dollar amount of the Contract, for the MBE goal and subgoals (if any), as set forth in the MBE Participation Schedule - Part 2 of the MDOT MBE Form B (State-Funded Contracts).

2. Additional MBE Documentation

I understand that if I am notified that I am the apparent awardee or as requested by the Procurement Officer, I must submit the following documentation within 10 business days of receiving such notice: (a) Outreach Efforts Compliance Statement (MDOT MBE Form C - State-Funded Contracts); (b) Subcontractor Project Participation Statement (MDOT MBE Form D - State-Funded Contracts); (c) If waiver requested, MBE Waiver Request Documentation and Forms (MDOT MBE/DBE Form E – Good Faith Efforts Guidance and Documentation) per COMAR 21.11.03.11; and (d) Any other documentation required by the Procurement Officer to ascertain bidder’s responsibility/ offeror’s susceptibility of being selected for award in connection with the certified MBE participation goal and subgoals, if any.

I acknowledge that if I fail to return each completed document (in 2 (a) through (d)) within the required time, the Procurement Officer may determine that I am not responsible and therefore not eligible for contract award or that the proposal is not susceptible of being selected for award.

PARTS 2 AND 3 MUST BE INCLUDED WITH THE BID/PROPOSAL. IF THE BIDDER/OFFEROR FAILS TO ACCURATELY COMPLETE AND SUBMIT PART 2 WITH THE BID/PROPOSAL AS REQUIRED, THE BID SHALL BE DEEMED NOT RESPONSIVE OR THE PROPOSAL SHALL BE DEEMED NOT SUSCEPTIBLE OF BEING SELECTED FOR AWARD.

PLEASE READ BEFORE COMPLETING THIS FORM

1. Please refer to the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) MBE Directory at www.mdot.state.md.us to determine if a firm is certified for the appropriate North American Industry Classification System (“NAICS”) Code and the product/services description (specific product that a firm is certified to provide or specific areas of work that a firm is certified to perform). For more general information about NAICS, please visit www.naics.com. Only those specific products and/or services for which a prime or subcontractor is a certified MBE in the MDOT Directory can be used for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goals.

2. In order to be counted for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goals, the MBE firm (whether a prime or subcontractor) must be certified for that specific NAICS Code (“MBE” for State-funded projects designation after NAICS Code). WARNING: If the firm’s NAICS Code is in graduated status, such services/products will not be counted for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goals. Graduated status is clearly identified in the MDOT Directory (such graduated codes are designated with the word graduated after the appropriate NAICS Code).

3. Examining the NAICS Code is the first step in determining whether an MBE firm is certified and eligible to receive MBE participation credit for the specific products/services to be supplied or performed under the contract. The second step is to determine whether a firm’s Products/Services Description in the MBE Directory includes the products to be supplied and/or services to be performed that are being used to achieve the MBE participation goals. If you have any questions as to whether a firm is certified to perform the specific services or provide specific products, please contact MDOT’s Office of Minority Business Enterprise at 1-800-544-6056 or via email at [email protected].

4. Complete the Part 2 – MBE Participation Schedule for all certified MBE firms (including primes and subcontractors) being used to achieve the MBE participation goal and subgoals, if any.

5. MBE Prime Self-Performance. When a certified MBE firm participates as a prime (independently or as part of a joint venture) on a contract, a procurement agency may count the distinct, clearly defined portion of the work of the contract that the certified MBE firm performs with its own forces toward fulfilling up to fifty-percent (50%) of the MBE participation goal (overall) and up to one hundred percent (100%) of not more than one of the MBE participation subgoals, if any, established for the contract. In order to receive credit for self-performance, an MBE prime must be (a) a certified MBE (see 1-3 above) and (b) listed in the Part 2 – MBE Participation Schedule with its certification number, the certification classification under which it will self-perform, and the percentage of the contract that can be counted as MBE self-performance. For the remaining portion of the overall goal and any subgoals, the MBE prime must also list, in the Part 2 – MBE Participation Schedule, other certified MBE firms used to meet those goals or, after making good faith efforts to obtain the participation of additional MBE firms, request a waiver. Note: A dually- certified MBE firm can use its own forces toward fulfilling ONLY ONE of the MBE subgoals for which it can be counted.

6. The Contractor’s subcontractors are considered second-tier subcontractors. Third-tier contracting used to meet an MBE goal is to be considered the exception and not the rule. The following two conditions must be met before MDOT, its Modal Administrations and the Maryland Transportation Authority may approve a third-tier contracting agreement: (a) the bidder/offeror must request in writing approval of each third-tier contract arrangement, and (b) the request must contain specifics as to why a third-tier contracting arrangement should be approved. These documents must be submitted with the bid/proposal in Part 2 of this MBE Participation Schedule.

7. For each MBE firm that is being used as a supplier/wholesaler/regular dealer/broker/manufacturer, please follow these instructions for calculating the amount of the subcontract for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goals:

A. Is the firm certified as a broker of the products/supplies? If the answer is YES, please continue to Item C. If the answer is NO, please continue to Item B.

B. Is the firm certified as a supplier, wholesaler, regular dealer, or manufacturer of such products/supplies? If the answer is YES, continue to Item D. If the answer is NO, continue to Item C only if the MBE firm is certified to perform trucking/hauling services under NAICS Codes 484110, 484121, 484122, 484210, 484220 and 484230. If the answer is NO and the firm is not certified under these NAICS Codes, then no MBE participation credit will be given for the supply of these products.

C. For purposes of achieving the MBE participation goal, you may count only the amount of any reasonable fee that the MBE firm will receive for the provision of such products/supplies - not the total subcontract amount or the value (or a percentage thereof) of such products and/or supplies. For Column 3 of the MBE Participation Schedule, please divide the amount of any reasonable fee that the MBE firm will receive for the provision of such products/services by the total Contract value and insert the percentage in Line 3.1.

D. Is the firm certified as a manufacturer (refer to the firm’s NAICS Code and specific description of products/services) of the products/supplies to be provided? If the answer is NO, please continue to Item E. If the answer is YES, for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goal, you may count the total amount of the subcontract. For Column 3 of the MBE Participation Schedule, please divide the total amount of the subcontract by the total Contract value and insert the percentage in Line 3.1.

E. Is the firm certified as a supplier, wholesaler and/or regular dealer? If the answer is YES and the MBE firm is furnishing and installing the materials and is certified to perform these services, please divide the total subcontract amount (including full value of supplies) by the total Contract value and insert the percentage in Line 3.1. If the answer is YES and the MBE firm is only being used as a supplier, wholesaler and/or regular dealer or is not certified to install the supplies/materials, for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goal, you may only count sixty percent (60%) of the value of the subcontract for these supplies/products (60% Rule). To apply the 60% Rule, first divide the amount of the subcontract for these supplies/products only (not installation) by the total Contract value. Then, multiply the result by sixty percent (60%) and insert the percentage in Line 3.2.

8. For each MBE firm that is not being used as a supplier/wholesaler/regular dealer/broker/manufacturer, to calculate the amount of the subcontract for purposes of achieving the MBE participation goals, divide the total amount of the subcontract by the total Contract value and insert the percentage in Line 3.1.

Example: $ 2,500 (Total Subcontract Amount)  $10,000 (Total Contract Value) x 100  25%

9. WARNING: The percentage of MBE participation, computed using the percentage amounts determined per Column 3 for all of the MBE firms listed in Part 2, MUST at least equal the MBE participation goal and subgoals (if applicable) as set forth in MDOT MBE Form A – State-Funded Contracts for this solicitation. If a bidder/offeror is unable to achieve the MBE participation goal and/or any subgoals (if applicable), then the bidder/offeror must request a waiver in Form A or the bid will be deemed not responsive, or the proposal not susceptible of being selected for award. You may wish to use the attached Goal/Subgoal Worksheet to assist you in calculating the percentages and confirming that you have met the applicable MBE participation goal and subgoals (if any).

Contract No. BB-3008-0000 MDOT MBE/DBE FORM E GOOD FAITH EFFORTS GUIDANCE AND DOCUMENTATION

PART 1 – GUIDANCE FOR DEMONSTRATING GOOD FAITH EFFORTS TO MEET MBE/DBE PARTICIPATION GOALS

In order to show that it has made good faith efforts to meet the Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)/Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goal (including any MBE subgoals) on a contract, the bidder/offeror must either (1) meet the MBE/DBE Goal(s) and document its commitments for participation of MBE/DBE Firms, or (2) when it does not meet the MBE/DBE Goal(s), document its Good Faith Efforts to meet the goal(s).

I. Definitions

MBE/DBE Goal(s) – “MBE/DBE Goal(s)” refers to the MBE participation goal and MBE participation subgoal(s) on a State-funded procurement and the DBE participation goal on a federally-funded procurement.

Good Faith Efforts – The “Good Faith Efforts” requirement means that when requesting a waiver, the bidder/offeror must demonstrate that it took all necessary and reasonable steps to achieve the MBE/DBE Goal(s), which, by their scope, intensity, and appropriateness to the objective, could reasonably be expected to obtain sufficient MBE/DBE participation, even if those steps were not fully successful. Whether a bidder/offeror that requests a waiver made adequate good faith efforts will be determined by considering the quality, quantity, and intensity of the different kinds of efforts that the bidder/offeror has made. The efforts employed by the bidder/offeror should be those that one could reasonably expect a bidder/offeror to take if the bidder/offeror were actively and aggressively trying to obtain DBE participation sufficient to meet the DBE contract goal. Mere pro forma efforts are not good faith efforts to meet the DBE contract requirements. The determination concerning the sufficiency of the bidder's/offeror’s good faith efforts is a judgment call; meeting quantitative formulas is not required.

Identified Firms – “Identified Firms” means a list of the DBEs identified by the procuring agency during the goal setting process and listed in the federally-funded procurement as available to perform the Identified Items of Work. It also may include additional DBEs identified by the bidder/offeror as available to perform the Identified Items of Work, such as DBEs certified or granted an expansion of services after the procurement was issued. If the procurement does not include a list of Identified Firms or is a State-funded procurement, this term refers to all of the MBE Firms (if State-funded) or DBE Firms (if federally-funded) the bidder/offeror identified as available to perform the Identified Items of Work and should include all appropriately certified firms that are reasonably identifiable.

Identified Items of Work – “Identified Items of Work” means the bid items identified by the procuring agency during the goal setting process and listed in the procurement as possible items of work for performance by MBE/DBE Firms. It also may include additional portions of items of work the bidder/offeror identified for performance by MBE/DBE Firms to increase the likelihood that the MBE/DBE Goal(s) will be achieved. If the procurement does not include a list of Identified Items of Work, this term refers to all of the items of work the bidder/offeror identified as possible items of work for performance by MBE/DBE Firms and should include all reasonably identifiable work opportunities.

MBE/DBE Firms – For State-funded contracts, “MBE/DBE Firms” refers to certified MBE Firms. Certified MBE Firms can participate in the State’s MBE Program. For federally-funded contracts, “MBE/DBE Firms” refers to certified DBE Firms. Certified DBE Firms can participate in the federal DBE Program.

II. Types of Actions MDOT will Consider 429

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000

The bidder/offeror is responsible for making relevant portions of the work available to MBE/DBE subcontractors and suppliers and to select those portions of the work or material needs consistent with the available MBE/DBE subcontractors and suppliers, so as to facilitate MBE/DBE participation. The following is a list of types of actions MDOT will consider as part of the bidder's/offeror’s Good Faith Efforts when the bidder/offeror fails to meet the MBE/DBE Goal(s). This list is not intended to be a mandatory checklist, nor is it intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. Other factors or types of efforts may be relevant in appropriate cases.

A. Identify Bid Items as Work for MBE/DBE Firms

1. Identified Items of Work in Procurements

(a) Certain procurements will include a list of bid items identified during the goal setting process as possible work for performance by MBE/DBE Firms. If the procurement provides a list of Identified Items of Work, the bidder/offeror shall make all reasonable efforts to solicit quotes from MBE Firms or DBE Firms, whichever is appropriate, to perform that work.

(b) Bidders/Offerors may, and are encouraged to, select additional items of work to be performed by MBE/DBE Firms to increase the likelihood that the MBEDBE Goal(s) will be achieved.

2. Identified Items of Work by Bidders/Offerors

(a) When the procurement does not include a list of Identified Items of Work, bidders/offerors should reasonably identify sufficient items of work to be performed by MBE/DBE Firms.

(b) Where appropriate, bidders/offerors should break out contract work items into economically feasible units to facilitate MBE/DBE participation, rather than perform these work items with their own forces. The ability or desire of a prime contractor to perform the work of a contract with its own organization does not relieve the bidder/offeror of the responsibility to make Good Faith Efforts.

B. Identify MBE Firms or DBE Firms to Solicit

1. DBE Firms Identified in Procurements

(a) Certain procurements will include a list of the DBE Firms identified during the goal setting process as available to perform the items of work. If the procurement provides a list of Identified DBE Firms, the bidder/offeror shall make all reasonable efforts to solicit those DBE firms.

(b) Bidders/offerors may, and are encouraged to, search the MBE/DBE Directory to identify additional DBEs who may be available to perform the items of work, such as DBEs certified or granted an expansion of services after the solicitation was issued.

2. MBE/DBE Firms Identified by Bidders/Offerors

(a) When the procurement does not include a list of Identified MBE/DBE Firms, bidders/offerors should reasonably identify the MBE Firms or DBE Firms, whichever is appropriate, that are available to perform the Identified Items of Work.

(b) Any MBE/DBE Firms identified as available by the bidder/offeror should be certified in the appropriate program (MBE for State-funded procurements or DBE for federally-funded procurements)

(c) Any MBE/DBE Firms identified as available by the bidder/offeror should be certified to perform the Identified Items of Work.

C. Solicit MBE/DBEs 430

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000

1. Solicit all Identified Firms for all Identified Items of Work by providing written notice. The bidder/offeror should:

(a) provide the written solicitation at least 10 days prior to bid opening to allow sufficient time for the MBE/DBE Firms to respond;

(b) send the written solicitation by first-class mail, facsimile, or email using contact information in the MBE/DBE Directory, unless the bidder/offeror has a valid basis for using different contact information; and

(c) provide adequate information about the plans, specifications, anticipated time schedule for portions of the work to be performed by the MBE/DBE, and other requirements of the contract to assist MBE/DBE Firms in responding. (This information may be provided by including hard copies in the written solicitation or by electronic means as described in C.3 below.)

2.“All” Identified Firms includes the DBEs listed in the procurement and any MBE/DBE Firms you identify as potentially available to perform the Identified Items of Work, but it does not include MBE/DBE Firms who are no longer certified to perform the work as of the date the bidder/offeror provides written solicitations.

3.“Electronic Means” includes, for example, information provided via a website or file transfer protocol (FTP) site containing the plans, specifications, and other requirements of the contract. If an interested MBE/DBE cannot access the information provided by electronic means, the bidder/offeror must make the information available in a manner that is accessible by the interested MBE/DBE.

4.Follow up on initial written solicitations by contacting DBEs to determine if they are interested. The follow up contact may be made:

(a) by telephone using the contact information in the MBE/DBE Directory, unless the bidder/offeror has a valid basis for using different contact information; or

(b) in writing via a method that differs from the method used for the initial written solicitation.

5. In addition to the written solicitation set forth in C.1 and the follow up required in C.4, use all other reasonable and available means to solicit the interest of MBE/DBE Firms certified to perform the work of the contract. Examples of other means include:

(a) attending any pre-bid meetings at which MBE/DBE Firms could be informed of contracting and subcontracting opportunities;

(b) if recommended by the procurement, advertising with or effectively using the services of at least two minority focused entities or media, including trade associations, minority/women community organizations, minority/women contractors' groups, and local, state, and federal minority/women business assistance offices listed on the MDOT Office of Minority Business Enterprise website; and

(c) effectively using the services of other organizations, as allowed on a case-by-case basis and authorized in the procurement, to provide assistance in the recruitment and placement of MBE/DBE Firms.

D. Negotiate With Interested MBE/DBE Firms

Bidders/Offerors must negotiate in good faith with interested MBE/DBE Firms.

1. Evidence of negotiation includes, without limitation, the following:

(a) the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of MBE/DBE Firms that were considered;

431

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000 (b) a description of the information provided regarding the plans and specifications for the work selected for subcontracting and the means used to provide that information; and

2. A bidder/offeror using good business judgment would consider a number of factors in negotiating with subcontractors, including DBE subcontractors, and would take a firm's price and capabilities as well as contract goals into consideration.

3. The fact that there may be some additional costs involved in finding and using MBE/DBE Firms is not in itself sufficient reason for a bidder's/offeror’s failure to meet the contract DBE goal, as long as such costs are reasonable. Factors to take into consideration when determining whether a MBE/DBE Firm’s quote is excessive or unreasonable include, without limitation, the following: (a) the dollar difference between the MBE/DBE subcontractor’s quote and the average of the other subcontractors’ quotes received by the bidder/offeror;

(b) the percentage difference between the MBE/DBE subcontractor’s quote and the average of the other subcontractors’ quotes received by the bidder/offeror;

(d) the number of MBE/DBE firms that the bidder/offeror solicited for that portion of the work;

(e) whether the work described in the MBE/DBE and Non-MBE/DBE subcontractor quotes (or portions thereof) submitted for review is the same or comparable; and

(f) the number of quotes received by the bidder/offeror for that portion of the work.

4. The above factors are not intended to be mandatory, exclusive, or exhaustive, and other evidence of an excessive or unreasonable price may be relevant.

5. The bidder/offeror may not use its price for self-performing work as a basis for rejecting a MBE/DBE Firm’s quote as excessive or unreasonable.

6. The “average of the other subcontractors’ quotes received by the” bidder/offeror refers to the average of the quotes received from all subcontractors, except that there should be quotes from at least three subcontractors, and there must be at least one quote from a MBE/DBE and one quote from a Non-MBE/DBE. 7.A bidder/offeror shall not reject a MBE/DBE Firm as unqualified without sound reasons based on a thorough investigation of the firm’s capabilities. For each certified MBE/DBE that is rejected as unqualified or that placed a subcontract quotation or offer that the bidder/offeror concludes is not acceptable, the bidder/offeror must provide a written detailed statement listing the reasons for this conclusion. The bidder/offeror also must document the steps taken to verify the capabilities of the MBE/DBE and Non-MBE/DBE Firms quoting similar work.

(a) The factors to take into consideration when assessing the capabilities of a MBE/DBE Firm, include, but are not limited to the following: financial capability, physical capacity to perform, available personnel and equipment, existing workload, experience performing the type of work, conduct and performance in previous contracts, and ability to meet reasonable contract requirements.

(b) The MBE/DBE Firm’s standing within its industry, membership in specific groups, organizations, or associations and political or social affiliations (for example union vs. non-union employee status) are not legitimate causes for the rejection or non-solicitation of bids in the efforts to meet the project goal.

E. Assisting Interested MBE/DBE Firms

When appropriate under the circumstances, the decision-maker will consider whether the bidder/offeror:

432

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000 1. made reasonable efforts to assist interested MBE/DBE Firms in obtaining the bonding, lines of credit, or insurance required by MDOT or the bidder/offeror; and

2. made reasonable efforts to assist interested MBE/DBE Firms in obtaining necessary equipment, supplies, materials, or related assistance or services.

III.Other Considerations

In making a determination of Good Faith Efforts the decision-maker may consider engineering estimates, catalogue prices, general market availability and availability of certified MBE/DBE Firms in the area in which the work is to be performed, other bids or offers and subcontract bids or offers substantiating significant variances between certified MBE/DBE and Non-MBE/DBE costs of participation, and their impact on the overall cost of the contract to the State and any other relevant factors.

The decision-maker may take into account whether a bidder/offeror decided to self-perform subcontract work with its own forces, especially where the self-performed work is Identified Items of Work in the procurement. The decision- maker also may take into account the performance of other bidders/offerors in meeting the contract. For example, when the apparent successful bidder/offeror fails to meet the contract goal, but others meet it, this reasonably raises the question of whether, with additional reasonable efforts, the apparent successful bidder/offeror could have met the goal. If the apparent successful bidder/offeror fails to meet the goal, but meets or exceeds the average MBE/DBE participation obtained by other bidders/offerors, this, when viewed in conjunction with other factors, could be evidence of the apparent successful bidder/offeror having made Good Faith Efforts.

IV. Documenting Good Faith Efforts

At a minimum, a bidder/offeror seeking a waiver of the MBE/DBE Goal(s) or a portion thereof must provide written documentation of its Good Faith Efforts, in accordance with COMAR 21.11.03.11, within 10 business days after receiving notice that it is the apparent awardee. The written documentation shall include the following:

A. Items of Work (Complete Good Faith Efforts Documentation Form E, Part 2)

A detailed statement of the efforts made to select portions of the work proposed to be performed by certified MBE/DBE Firms in order to increase the likelihood of achieving the stated MBE/DBE Goal(s).

B. Outreach/Solicitation/Negotiation

1. The record of the bidder’s/offeror’s compliance with the outreach efforts prescribed by COMAR 21.11.03.09C(2)(a) through (e) and 49 C.F.R. Part 26, Appendix A. (Complete Outreach Efforts Compliance Statement)

2. A detailed statement of the efforts made to contact and negotiate with MBE/DBE Firms including:

(a) the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the MBE/DBE Firms who were contacted, with the dates and manner of contacts (letter, fax, email, telephone, etc.) (Complete Good Faith Efforts Form E, Part 3, and submit letters, fax cover sheets, emails, etc. documenting solicitations); and

(a) a description of the information provided to MBE/DBE Firms regarding the plans, specifications, and anticipated time schedule for portions of the work to be performed and the means used to provide that information.

433

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000 C. Rejected MBE/DBE Firms (Complete Good Faith Efforts Form E, Part 4)

1. For each MBE/DBE Firm that the bidder/offeror concludes is not acceptable or qualified, a detailed statement of the reasons for the bidder's/offeror’s conclusion, including the steps taken to verify the capabilities of the MBE/DBE and Non-MBE/DBE Firms quoting similar work.

2. For each certified MBE/DBE Firm that the bidder/offeror concludes has provided an excessive or unreasonable price, a detailed statement of the reasons for the bidder's/offeror’s conclusion, including the quotes received from all MBE/DBE and Non-MBE/DBE firms bidding on the same or comparable work. (Include copies of all quotes received.)

3. A list of MBE/DBE Firms contacted but found to be unavailable. This list should be accompanied by a Minority Contractor Unavailability Certificate signed by the MBE/DBE contractor or a statement from the bidder/offeror that the MBE/DBE contractor refused to sign the Minority Contractor Unavailability Certificate.

1. Submit any other documentation requested by the Procurement Officer to ascertain the bidder’s/offeror’s Good Faith Efforts.

2. Submit any other documentation the bidder/offeror believes will help the Procurement Officer ascertain its Good Faith Efforts.

PREVAILING WAGE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CONTRACTOR & SUBCONTRACTOR [con’t]

Contractors and subcontractors employing a classification of worker for which a wage rate was not issued SHALL notify the Commissioner of Labor & Industry, Prevailing Wage Unit, for the purpose of obtaining the wage rate for said classification PRIOR TO BEING EMPLOYED on the project.

These licenses must be retained at the worksite and available for review upon request by the Commissioner of Labor and Industry’s designee.

Under the Maryland Apprenticeship and Training Council requirements, consistent with proper supervision, training and continuity of employment and applicable provisions in collective bargaining agreements, a ratio of one journey person regularly employed to one apprentice shall be allowed.

ALL Contractors and subcontractors shall employ only competent workers and apprentices and may NOT employ any individual classified as a HELPER or TRAINEE on a prevailing wage project.

In 2009, the State Apprenticeship and Training Fund law was enacted, and the Department is in the process of implementation. See §17-601-17-606, State Finance and Procurement Article, Annotated Code of Maryland. There is no obligation to make contributions under this law at this time. However, the Department anticipates that obligations under this law will be required beginning in the spring of 2013. You will receive notice prior to when the obligations will become due.

Once implemented, this law will require that Contractors and certain subcontractors performing work on certain public work contracts are required to make contributions toward apprenticeship. Contractors and subcontractors will have three options where they can choose to make their contributions: ( 1) participate in a registered apprenticeship training program; (2) contribute to an organization that has a registered apprenticeship training program; or (3) contribute to the State Apprenticeship and Training Fund.

LEGAL MANDATES

A. Title VI, Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq.) prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in all programs and activities which receive Federal financial assistance. Employment discrimination is prohibited if a primary purpose of Federal assistance is a provision of employment, e.g., apprenticeship, training, work study, or similar programs. Revised guidelines in 1973 prohibit discriminatory employment practices in all programs if such practices cause discrimination in services provided to beneficiaries of the program.

B. Title VII, Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended) (42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq.). Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

C. Executive Order 11246 (as amended). This order, issued by the President on September 24, 1965, requires Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action Program by all Federal Contractors and subcontractors; it is administered and enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (“OFCCP”). It also requires that firms with contracts over $50,000.00 and 50 or more employees develop and implement written programs, which are to be monitored by the OFCCP. Specific requirements for such result-oriented programs are identified in the Revised Order #4 (41 C.F.R. pt. 60-2) issued by the OFCCP. These requirements include identifying areas of minority and female under-utilization, numerical promotional and hiring goals, and other actions to increase minority employment in classifications where they are currently under-utilized.

D. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (as amended) (29 U.S.C. §§ 621-34 ) prohibits employers of 20 or more persons from discriminating against persons who are at least 40 years of age in any area of employment based on their age.

E. National Labor Relations Act of 1935. It shall be unlawful for employers to participate with unions in the commission of any discriminatory practices under this Act, or to practice discrimination in a manner which gives rise to racial or other division amongst employees to the detriment of organized union activity. It shall be unlawful for unions to exclude individuals discriminatorily from union memberships, thereby causing them to lose job opportunities, to discriminate in the representation of union members or non-members in collective bargaining, in the processing or grievance, or in any other respect which may cause or attempt to cause employers to enter into discriminatory agreements, or otherwise discriminate against members and non-members.

This code was amended so as to be in compliance with Federal mandates regulating laws pertinent to Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action.

G. Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Pub. L. 93-112) (as amended) (29 U.S.C. § 701 et seq.). This law provides a statutory basis for the Rehabilitation Services Administration and to authorize programs to promote and expand employment opportunities in the public and private sectors for handicapped individuals.

H. Section 13-219 of the State Finance and Procurement Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland. This law provides for non-discrimination in State construction contracts and sub-contracts. This provision obligates the Contractor not to discriminate in any manner against any employee or applicant for employment because of sex, race, age, color, creed, or national origin and obligates subcontractors to the same.

I. Other Laws. Employment discrimination has also been ruled by courts to be prohibited by the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1870, the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, and the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (29 U.S.C. 206(d)). Action under these laws on behalf of individuals or groups may be taken by individuals, private organizations, trade unions or other groups.

A regular dealer in such bulk items as cement, gravel, stone and petroleum need not keep such products in stock, if it owns or operates distribution equipment. Brokers and packagers shall not be regarded as manufacturers or regular dealers within the meaning of this section.

A regular dealer must be engaged in selling the product in question to the public. This is important in distinguishing a Regular Dealer, which has a regular trade with a variety of customers, from a firm which performs supply-like functions on an ad-hoc basis or for only one or two contractors with whom it has a special relationship.

A business that simply transfer title of a product from manufacturer to ultimate purchaser (e.g. broker or sales representative who re-invoices a product from the producing company to the recipient or contractor) or a firm that puts a product in a container for deliver would not be considered a Regular Dealer.

A supplier of bulk goods may qualify as a regular dealer if it either maintains an inventory or owns or operates distribution equipment. With respect to the distribution equipment (e.g. a fleet of trucks), the term “operates” is intended to cover a situation in which the supplier leases the equipment on a regular basis for its entire business. It is not intended to cover a situation in the firm simply provides drivers for trucks owned or leased by another party, (e.g., a prime contractor) or leases such as party’s trucks on an ad-hoc basis for a specific job.

It is not intended to cover a situation in which the firm simply provides drivers for trucks owned or leased by another party, (such as a prime contractor) or leases such a party’s trucks on an ad-hoc basis for a specific job.

Third Tier Contracting – The process in which a prime contractor subcontracts a portion of an original contract to a subcontractor who in turn subcontracts a portion of a subcontract to a third party. This latter action is termed entering into a third tier contract agreement.

Maryland Transportation Authority

BAY BRIDGE AUTOMATED LANE CLOSURE SYSTEM

Contract No. BB-3008-0000 I. JOINT VENTURE

In accordance with COMAR 21.11.03.12-1, “When a certified MBE performs as a participant in a joint venture, a procurement agency may count a portion of the total dollar value of the contract equal to the distinct, clearly defined portion of the work of the contract that the certified MBE performs with its own forces toward fulfilling the contract goal.”

NOTE: New Guidelines Regarding MBE Prime Self-Performance. Please note that when a certified MBE firm participates as a prime contractor on a contract, a procurement agency may count the distinct, clearly defined portion of the work of the contract that the certified MBE firm performs with its own forces toward fulfilling up to fifty-percent (50%) of the MBE participation goal (overall) and up to one hundred percent (100%) of not more than one of the MBE participation subgoals, if any, established for the contract. For example, for a construction contract that has a 27% MBE overall participation goal and subgoals of 7% for African American firms and 4% for Asian American firms, subject to Section 4 above and this Section 5, a certified African American MBE prime can self-perform (a) up to 13.5 % of the overall goal and (b) up to 7% of the African American subgoal. The remainder of the overall goal and subgoals would have to be met with other certified MBE firms or a waiver request.
