INSTRUCTION TO BIDDERS
It is the responsibility of the bidder by careful personal examination of the contract documents to satisfy
himself as to the nature and location of the work, as well as all environmental conditions that may effect
performance of the work. All bidders should visit the site to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the
existing conditions. If any discrepancies should be found between existing conditions and the Contract
Documents, prospective bidders shall report these discrepancies to the System for clarification prior to
submitting a bid. Requests for interpretation of the work to be performed shall be submitted in writing to
the System or the System's designated representative. Failure of the bidder to visit the site, recognize and
take into account in their bid site conditions that affect the work, shall not be considered sufficient cause for
any increase in the agreed upon contracted amount.
Bidder is required to supply PA E-VERIFY Form as per The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania enacted Act
127 of 2012, known as the Public Works Employment Verification Act which requires all public work
contractors and subcontractors to utilize the Federal Government’s E-Verify system (EVP) to ensure that all
employees performing work on public work projects are authorized to work in the United States.
See Notice to Contractors for further details and link to form.
If a bid guaranty is required, a certified check, bank cashier’s check, or Bid Bond must accompany each
proposal. Failure to submit a bid guaranty, if required, will result in the rejection of the Bid Proposal as
unresponsive. If a Bid Bond is used as the guaranty, it must be submitted on the System-furnished Bid Bond
form, complete with all signatures, seals, and certificate of power of attorney.
Each proposal shall be submitted in sealed envelopes marked plainly on the outside with the contract
number, bid opening date and time, delivered within the time specified for the bid opening to be considered
as responsive to the bid requirements. The proposal shall remain sealed until publicly opened, read, and
tabulated. Bids may be withdrawn up to the time of bid opening provided a written request is received prior
to the time specified for bid opening. Bids may be withdrawn after the bid opening in accordance with Act
1998-57 Commonwealth Procurement Code, within 2 working days after the time designated as the date of
the bid opening. All bids shall be unconditionally accepted without alteration or modification except as
authorized in the bidding documents. The System reserves the right to reject any or all bids for any reason.
The proposals of any bidder or bidders who engage in collusive bidding shall be rejected. Any bidder who
submits more than one proposal in such manner as to make it appear that the proposals submitted are on a
competitive basis from different parties shall be considered a collusive bidder. The System may reject the
bid proposals of any collusive bidder upon bid openings of future projects. Nothing in this section shall
prevent a bidder from superseding a bid proposal by a subsequent proposal delivered prior to bid opening
that expressly revokes the previous bid.
An actual or prospective bidder who is aggrieved concerning the solicitation or award of a contract may
protest, in writing, to the University contracting officer. All protests must be made within seven (7) days
after the bidder knows or should have known of the facts giving rise to the protest. If a protest is submitted
by a protestant who did not submit a bid, the protest must be received by the university contracting officer
prior to the bid opening time or the bid proposal receipt date or it shall be considered untimely and will be
disregarded.
Upon request, or if specifically required by the terms of the bid form, the apparent low bidder may be
requested to submit a contractor's qualification and/or financial statement within ten (10) calendar days of

bid date, with financial information current within twelve (12) months prior to the bid date, of which
statements shall be certified to be true and correct by an affidavit sworn to or affirmed before a notary
public, or other officer empowered to administer oaths or affirmations. Failure to submit the required
information, when requested, may result in rejection of the Bid Proposal.
To be deemed a responsible bidder, the bidder shall be capable of proving ownership of current assets over
and above the current liabilities in amount equal to at least 20% of the bid price if the bid price is under
$2,000,000; $400,000 plus 15% of all in excess of $2,000,000 if the bid price is over $2,000,000 and not
exceeding $3,500,000; $625,000 plus 10% of all in excess of $3,500,000 if the bid price is over $3,500,000
and not exceeding $6,000,000; $875,000 plus 5% of all in excess of $6,000,000 if the bid price is over
$6,000,000. No asset will be considered current unless there is reasonable expectation that it will be
realized within a period of one year; nor will any liability be considered current that will not be liquidated
within one year. Additional information may be requested by the System whenever, in its judgment, such
information is necessary to determine the responsibility of the bidder.
The System may, solely at its own discretion, award the contract to the lowest responsive responsible bidder
within sixty (60) days from the date of bid opening, and shall have the right to waive technical defects if in
the best interest of the System. A time extension may be made by written consent of the lowest responsive
responsible bidder. Award will be made by letter mailed to the Contractor and shall be effective the date of
the mailing.
Should Contract Bonds be required, the Contractor must, within ten (10) days after the receipt of the
documents, sign, have the Surety execute, and return them to the System. The Contractor's surety company
shall be authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and must successfully
demonstrate in writing prior to award that the amount of bond or reinsurance or other security has been
obtained in conformance with Section 661 of the Pennsylvania Insurance Company law of 1921, 40 P.S.
832. Failure of the Bidder to execute the required Contract Bond within the time specified will result in
payment to the System, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages, their proposal guaranty, in the amount
of the difference between their bid proposal and the next lowest responsive responsible bid proposal, or the
proposal guaranty amount, whichever is less. The System shall have the right to award the contract to the
next lowest responsive responsible bidder.
In the event a bidder fails, refuses, or neglects to provide any requested information or documents within
the time stated in the Bid Documents or in the request, the System will have the right to reject their bid
proposal as unresponsive.
The Notice to Proceed will be made by letter mailed to the Contractor and shall be effective the date of the
mailing. The System will endeavor to issue the Notice to Proceed within 120 days of the Bid Opening. Any
delays caused by the Contractor's failure to provide any required documents within the specified time will
cause an equivalent number of days to be added to this time frame. The Contractor will commence work on
the project site within 10 days of the Notice to Proceed. The Contractor should not order any materials or
equipment or make any financial commitments concerning this contract until receiving the System's Notice
to Proceed. Contractor's that do work prior to receiving the System’s Notice to Proceed are proceeding at
his own risk.

Minority Business and Women Business Enterprise Participation in Facilities Projects I. Scope
This program is derived from the State System of Higher Education Board of Governors Draft Regulation Minority Business and Women Business Enterprise Participation in Facilities Projects, Title 22: 507.20, and is applicable to all contracts to be administered by the State System of Higher Education for maintenance, repair, alteration, or improvements to existing and/or construction of new facilities.
II. Definitions
The words or terms listed below shall be defined as stated when used in these regulations unless the text clearly indicates otherwise:
Alteration: Modifications made to a facility to change the physical structure or environment of the spaces within the facility.
Award: The issuance of a contract to the bidder or firm that submitted the lowest responsive responsible bid that has been determined to be in conformance with the advertised specifications and bidding requirements.
Certified MBE/WBE: Written designation given to a business enterprise by a duly constituted public body that attests that the business enterprise has submitted evidence of satisfying the minimum criteria established by that body for recognition of ownership by an individual or group of individuals recognized as a minority due to race or gender.
Commitment: A conditional written promise that a written quote given at the time of bid will be honored
at the amount quoted or in a lesser amount, if acceptable by mutual negotiations, for the scope of work and/or materials specified. The bidder is obligated to make an award in the amount quoted to the firm submitting the lowest quote, only to the extent that there is an agreement as to the scope of work and/or materials specified at the time of bid.
Construction: The erection of an addition or improvement to an existing facility or a new building or structure or creation of new building space or a structure using component or pre-assembled building materials.
Facility: Any building, structure, infrastructure, utility or improvement placed or naturally occurring in and above the real estate (land) at a State System university, branch campus, or environmental center.
Facilities Contract: Written, legally binding agreements between a contractor and the State System of Higher Education for maintenance, repair, alteration, improvement, or new construction work for facilities managed by the State System of Higher Education.
Improvement: The addition of a facility amenity, such as installation of central air conditioning, that was not part of the structure when originally constructed.
Maintenance: The minor work performed routinely on a facility to prevent premature failure of the components used to construct the facility and/or the return of failed components to useful service without complete repair or replacement of the component or a major portion thereof.
MBE/WBE: A business enterprise that is owned/operated by a person or persons considered to be a minority due to race or gender. In order to fulfill the provisions of these regulations, the firm must satisfy established criteria by a duly constituted public body as being owned by an individual or group of individuals recognized as a minority due to race or gender and receive a certification designation by that public body.
Non-minority: An individual or firm that has not been certified as a minority business or women business enterprise by a duly constituted public body.
Notice-to-Proceed (NTP): Written direction given to the responsible firm that has submitted the lowest responsive bid to whom the contract has been awarded and approvals obtained from all required parties such that work on the contract may commence with work to be completed within the number of days specified in the contract documents.
Proactive Solicitations: Aggressive effort taken by the bidder to obtain written quotes for subcontracts and/or material purchases from certified MBE/WBE firms to submit with his/her bid so as to reach or exceed the reasonable effort award amount established for the contract without discrimination against
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Sample Bid Form Page 9 of 19
any individual or business due to race or gender. The bidder is prohibited from submitting a quote for the scope of work for which he/she obtains quotes from certified MBE\WBE firms.
Professional Agreement: Written, legally binding instrument between a professional architectural or engineering firm to prepare plans, specifications and bidding documents for maintenance, repair, alteration, improvement or new construction of System facilities.
Reasonable Effort Award Amount: That amount of the work for which bids or quotes can reasonably be expected to be obtained from certified MBE\WBE firms based on the scope of work of the project and current demographics concerning available qualified MBE/WBE subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors. The State System of Higher Education has the exclusive and sole right to establish this amount for any and all contracts it bids.
Repair: Restoration or replacement of major building systems or components used in construction of the entire facility that fail or wear out before the entire facility, such as roofing systems, heating, ventilation or air conditioning systems, etc.
System: Shortened name used in these regulations for the State System of Higher Education, which was created and regulated by Act 188 of 1982, and amendments thereto.
III. Proactive Effort Policy.
Certified Minority Business and Women Business Enterprises shall be solicited proactively and encouraged to submit competitive written bids or quotes for System facilities projects by the System and the prime contractors submitting bids for System facilities projects for portions of the work, and, depending on written bids received, contracts or subcontracts awarded for the work, if determined to be the firm submitting the lowest responsive responsible bid or quote. System procurement officers shall proactively solicit bids directly from certified MBE/WBE firms as prime contractors.
Each non-minority bidder must proactively solicit participation by certified Minority Business Enterprise and Women Business Enterprise (MBE/WBE) subcontractors and suppliers, when specified. All bidders are further required to document such proactive effort by completion and submission of the MBE/WBE Subcontractor and Supplier Solicitation Information Sheet shown in Exhibit A.
Minority Business and Women Business Enterprises are encouraged to submit bid proposals directly for System facilities projects, to act as prime contractors. As MBE/WBE firms, they are not required to provide any documentation regarding proactive solicitation. However, when submitting the Bid Proposal, all MBE/WBE firms must indicate on the Solicitation Information Sheet (Exhibit A) that they are Certified MBE/WBE firms, and record their Certification Number on the place indicated.
It is important to note that the MBE/WBE provisions of these regulations are unique to State System of Higher Education contracts. It is expected that responsive responsible bidders must proactively make a reasonable effort, as defined in Section IV-Reasonable Participation, to seek and incorporate a reasonable proportion of participation of certified minority and women business enterprises in each facilities project.
IV. Reasonable Participation.
At a minimum, a reasonable effort by bidders for certified MBE/WBE participation in this project is proactive solicitation such that award of subcontracts or purchases totaling CL-698.5 Asbestos $ 50,000 - $ 150,000 reasonable effort award amount) could be made to contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, or vendors who have been certified as valid MBE/WBE entities. This reasonable effort award amount serves exclusively as a threshold in determining bidder responsiveness.
A. If the bidder makes commitments to certified MBE/WBE firms at or above the reasonable effort
award amount at the time of receipt of bids, the bidder will be considered to have met the minority participation requirements for the project.
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Sample Bid Form Page 10 of 19
B. When the reasonable effort award amount clearly has not been attained, as is evident from the commitments made to subcontractors or vendors based on their quotes submitted at the time of receipts of bids, in order to avoid rejection as non-responsive, the bidder's evidence of proactive solicitation on the MBE/WBE Subcontractor and Supplier Solicitation Information Sheet must show that the reasonable effort awards in that amount could have been made because the bidder proactively solicited for sufficient different types of subcontracts or material purchases from certified MBE/WBE firms to reach the reasonable effort award amount but:
1. written quotes were not received from certified MBE/WBE or non-minority firms that
equal or exceed the reasonable award amount, but a proactive effort was demonstrated to have been made to obtain certified MBE/WBE participation.
2. did not receive written quotes from certified MBE\WBE firms, but did receive written
quotes from non-minority firms that did equal or exceed the reasonable effort award amount, and commitments were made to those non-minority firms submitting the lowest quotes; or
3. written quotes were received from certified MBE/WBE firms at or above the reasonable
award amount, but lower written quotes were received from non-minority firms, and commitments were made to at least one non-minority firm which submitted the lowest written quote at the time of receipt of bids for the same work or materials.
V. Responsiveness. Bidders must show proof of their proactive solicitation efforts by submitting: A. At the time of receipts of bids, provide a completed MBE/WBE Subcontractor and Supplier
Solicitation Information Sheet (Exhibit A). B. Prior to the time of and at the place designated for the Bid Opening, the bidder shall provide copies
of the following: 1. the written solicitations to MBE\WBE firms. 2. all solicited and unsolicited written quotes received from certified MBE/WBE firms. 3. written quotes from all non-minority firms that are lower than the lowest quote received from a
certified MBE/WBE firm, when award is to be made to other than the certified MBE/WBE firm submitting the lowest quote.
4. letters of commitment to the certified MBE/WBE or non-minority firm submitting the lowest
written quotes. 5. explanatory information required, as specified below, when commitments cannot be made to
certified MBE/WBE firms in the reasonable effort award amount. a. List by type of work the certified MBE/WBE firms solicited, and the type of work or
materials for which solicitations were not made and the reasons why. b. State why written commitments were not made for the lowest certified MBE/WBE
written quotes received. c. State reasons, if known, why written quotes were not received from solicited firms, or
why unsolicited written quotes were not accepted and commitments made. Failure to submit the required information as shown on the Solicitation Information Sheet (Exhibit A) related to MBE/WBE solicitation, quotes, and commitments is sufficient cause for rejection of the bidder's bid as non-responsive. Failure to submit all solicited and/or unsolicited quotes shall also be sufficient cause for rejection of the bidder's bid as non-responsive. Mailings to large numbers of certified MBEs and WBEs which are intended to provide notice of a contractor's interest in bidding a construction project will not be deemed solicitation, but rather will be treated as informational notification only. The bidder must contact the certified MBE/WBE firms directly and request written quotes for the work or materials the firm plans to subcontract or purchase to satisfy the reasonable effort award amount. Bidders should only list solicitations (on Exhibit A) made to certified MBE/WBE subcontractors, manufacturers, or suppliers whose work, materials, or supplies are within the project scope and are related
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Sample Bid Form Page 11 of 19
to the project or portions thereof, and which a reasonable and prudent bidder would purchase or subcontract for the project. Bidders must show that the MBE/WBE firms solicited are certified MBE/WBE contractors, suppliers, or vendors as identified below in the Section VII MBE/WBE Certification. Suppliers who commonly and ordinarily stock materials customarily found in the industry and are certified as MBE/WBE firms are considered as full participators in the System's program. Suppliers who do not stock materials, as is common and ordinarily the custom in the industry and a part of the industry's trade practice, but have been certified as a supplier for a particular product or products as a certified MBE/WBE firm by a duly constituted public body, are considered as full participants in the System's program. Bidders who cannot clearly demonstrate that written commitments have been made that equal or exceed the reasonable effort award amount at the time of receipt of bids must submit, at anytime prior to the time of and at the place designated for the Bid Opening, an explanation of why such commitments could not be made. The explanation should indicate the proactive efforts taken to solicit participation and demonstrate that the bidder did not engage in discriminatory practices in solicitation and commitment of subcontracts and/or supply contracts. VI. Determination of Responsiveness. Failure to submit the documentation, as required in Section V, Responsiveness, shall result in a finding of non-responsive and the bid will be rejected. The procurement office issuing the contract will review the documentation submitted and perform evaluations which will determine whether or not proactive solicitation and subsequent commitments were not made which total the reasonable effort award amount, or for which acceptable reasonable explanations were not provided, and will result in a finding of non-responsiveness to the bidding criteria and will result in rejection of the bid. Evaluations will include review of the documentation for meeting the following standards: 1. The bidder showed proactive effort by soliciting and documenting the required quotes from certified
MBE/WBE firms to demonstrate that the reasonable effort award amount was, or could have been achieved. The proactive solicitation effort by the bidder must provide sufficient time for the MBE\WBE firm to properly formulate a response.
2. The bidder documented solicitation of a varied selection of MBE/WBE firms which appear to be
categorized as performing the required subcontracting effort. 3. Based on items one and two above, the bidder may be found to have shown a proactive effort
regarding MBE/WBE firms as required under this policy. If accepted by the certified MBE/WBE firm, commitments made at the time of receipt of bids must be maintained throughout the term of the contract, unless a change in commitment to these firms is pre-approved by the System. VII. MBE/WBE Certification. Certification as a bona fide minority or women-owned business enterprise must be made within statutory requirements set forth in the Act of December 21, 1984, No. 230, P.L. 210, 18 Pa. CSA, Section 4107.2 by any duly constituted public body. Certification of an entity as an MBE/WBE means only that the applicant has submitted information that qualifies it as an MBE/WBE in terms of its ownership and control. Certification does not address the ability of the MBE/WBE to perform the required services. The Bureau of Contract Administration and Business Development provides resources, certifies and instructs minority and women businesses how to pursue opportunities through state contracting. The office also oversees the statewide contract compliance program. Information is available at the following site: http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt?open=512&objID=1359&&SortOrder=100&level=3&parentid=1358&css=L3&mode=2&cached=true or for other information call 717-783-3119; the western region information number is 412-826-5656.

VIII. Contractual Obligations. The proposal of the lowest conforming bidder, including the completed MBE/WBE Subcontractor and Supplier Solicitation Information Sheet and accompanying documents regarding solicitation and commitments to certified MBE/WBE firms, shall be considered as incorporated in and become contractual obligations under the terms and conditions of the contract awarded to the lowest responsive, responsible prime contractor. The System will send copies of the successful contractor's Award letter to those certified MBE\WBE or non-minority firms who presented the lowest written quotes and received commitments from the successful contractor at the time of receipt of bids. This will serve as notice to the certified MBE\WBE or non-minority firms to anticipate contract awards upon Notice to Proceed to the successful contractor. After receipt of Notice to Proceed with the contract, the contractor must offer contracts at no less than the amount stated in the written quote (unless mutually agreed upon) to the firm presenting the lowest written quote at the time of receipt of bids. If the certified MBE/WBE or non-minority firm which made the lowest written quote rejects the offer, award may be made to any other qualified subcontractor or vendor, at a price lower than the next lowest written quote received for the same work at the time of receipt of bids, without penalty of invalidating the contractor's MBE/WBE participation. Otherwise, award must be offered to the firm which presented the next lowest written quote for the same work at the time of receipt of bids. Failure to offer and, if accepted, award such work to a lower qualified or any successive low bidder constitutes a potential breach of the System's MBE/WBE program, and the contract may be terminated. The successful contractor's contract price will not be adjusted in any circumstance to accommodate rejected offers or commitments made to subcontractors, vendors or suppliers to satisfy the MBE/WBE provisions. IX. Rejection of Bids. Failure to complete and submit the MBE/WBE Subcontractor and Supplier Solicitation Information Sheet (Exhibit A) and provide the accompanying documentation regarding solicitations, quotes, and commitments will be sufficient cause for rejection of a bid as being non-responsive to the requirement of taking proactive efforts to involve certified MBE/WBE firms in the project.

the Professional, their agents and employees from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses including attorneys' fees arising out of or resulting from the performance of the work, including any and all design work performed by or for the Contractor, provided that any such claim, damage, loss or expense: (1) is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease or death or to injury to or destruction of tangible property including the loss of use resulting therefrom, and (2) is caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or omission of the Contractor, any subcontractor, any one directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or any one for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of whether or not it is caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder.
In any and all claims against the System, Construction Manager or the Professional or any of their agents or employees by any employee or the Contractor, any subcontractor, any one directly or indirectly employed by any of them or any one for whose acts any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligations shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for the Contractor or any subcontractor under workmen's compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.
The obligations of the Contractor under this Section shall not extend to the liability of the Construction Manager, Professional, their agents or employees arising out of (1) the preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, change orders, designs or specifications, or (2) the giving of, or the failure to give, directions or instructions by the Construction Manager, Professional, their agents or employees provided such giving, or failure to give, is the primary cause of the injury or damages.

4.4 DISPUTES WITH OTHER CONTRACTORS
4.4.100 The System shall have no obligation to any third parties for any claim, nor be a party to any claims, disputes or actions between prime contractors or subcontractors concerning such additional expense or damage. Nor shall such claims or disputes be subject to Board of Claims proceedings.
4.4.101 Should the Contractor, either directly or by the Contractor's subcontractors, or their respective agents, servants, or employees, cause damage or injury to the property or work of any other prime contractor or contractors, or by failing to perform the Contractor's work (including the work of the Contractor's subcontractors) hereunder with due diligence, delay any other prime contractors who shall suffer additional expense or damage thereby, the parties involved in such dispute shall settle by agreement or arbitrate said claim, dispute or disputes by referring same to the American Arbitration Association.

CHANGES IN THE WORK 6.1 RIGHT TO ORDER CHANGES
6.1.100 The System, without invalidating the agreement, may order changes in the work within the general scope of the agreement consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions. The contract sum and time shall be adjusted accordingly, as they relate to the cost of the work, and impact on completion of the work. The Contractor agrees that payment under any method shall be the exclusive compensation for such addition, deletion, or other revision to the original agreement.

6.2.101 The Contractor shall not be entitled to profit which is lost as a result of deleted work, but shall be entitled to the overhead attributed to the items of work deleted from the Schedule of Values only when the contract completion date is not reduced.
6.3 UNILATERAL CHANGE ORDER
6.3.100 In the event that agreement cannot be reached as to the cost or credit of the changed work, the System shall prepare a cost estimate, and the Contractor will be issued a unilateral change order to proceed with the changed work at a cost not-to-exceed the System's estimate. The Contractor shall proceed with the work and maintain accurate records of the actual cost of labor and material to perform the work.
6.3.101 Upon completion of the work, if the Contractor's actual cost including profit and overhead for the work does not exceed the System's not-to-exceed cost estimate, a new change order will be issued in the amount of the Contractor's actual cost.
6.3.102 If the work is not completed, and if the Contractor's actual cost has equaled or exceeded the not-to-exceed limit of the unilateral change order, the System will audit the Contractor's actual cost and subsequently attempt to negotiate a cost for the remaining work.

7.2 Time extensions may be granted for events impacting the work beyond the control of the Contractor if the
changed condition impacts a work item on the critical path of the project schedule, and the scheduled substantial completion date is extended.
ARTICLE 8
PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION
8.1 The Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all work, materials, and equipment covered by an application
for payment, whether incorporated in the project or not, will pass to the System upon the receipt of such payment, free and clear of all terms, claims, security interests, or encumbrances.
8.2 PAYMENTS
8.2.100 Performance by the contractor in accordance with the provisions of the contract shall entitle the contractor to payment by the System. The System shall pay the contractor according to the provisions of this section for all items that appear on the application for payment and have been satisfactorily completed. Applications for payment will not be considered to be acceptable unless they meet all the requirements specified in Section 01027-Application for Payment and as outlined elsewhere in the contract documents.
8. 2.101 Schedule of Values: The contract sum is stated in the agreement and is the total amount payable for the performance of the work in compliance with the Contract Documents. Before any application for payment can be submitted, the Contractor shall submit to the System for its approval a detailed breakdown of the costs indicating a schedule of quantities and values for the items of work included in the contract, as required in Section 01027-Application for Payment. Each item in the Schedule of Values shall include its proper share of overhead and profit.
The Schedule of Values, when approved by the System shall be used as a basis for the Contractor's application for payments. This Schedule of Values may also be used to determine the cost or credit to the System resulting from the
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Facilities Projects Rider B 71K110 (11-11-98) Page 12 of 20
changes in the work. 8.2.102 The System may decline to approve any Application for Payment, or portion thereof, because of subsequently
discovered evidence or subsequent inspections, which may nullify the whole or part of any Application for Payment previously issued, to such extent as may be necessary to protect the System from loss because of: A. Defective work not remedied.
B. Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to subcontractors or for labor, materials, and equipment.
C Reasonable evidences that the work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum.
D. Reasonable evidence that the work will not be completed within the Contract Time, and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay.
E. Unsatisfactory prosecution of the work by the Contractor.
8.2.103 Retainage: Normally, payment of the total amount will be made upon substantial completion, final inspection, and acceptance of the work. However, when a contract exceeds $10,000 and upon written request, partial payments may be made after completion of portions of the work. To ensure proper performance of the contract, the System shall retain from all partial payments an amount not to exceed ten percent (10%) of the amount due the contractor until fifty percent (50%) of the contract is completed. The sum to be withheld from the contractor after the contract is fifty percent (50%) completed shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the value of the completed work based on monthly progress payment requests.
When the contract is fifty percent (50%) completed, one half of the amount retained by the System shall be returned to the contractor. However, the architect, engineer, or System project representative must approve the application for payment for reduction in retainage. The contractor must be making satisfactory progress, and there must be no specific cause for greater withholding.
All money retained by the System may be withheld from the contractor until substantial completion of the contractor. However, in the event a dispute arises between the System and any prime contractor, which dispute is based upon increased costs claimed by one prime contractor occasioned by delays or other actions of another prime contractor, additional retainage in the sum of one and one-half times the amount of any possible liability may be withheld until such time as a final resolution is agreed to by all parties directly or indirectly involved, unless the contractor causing the additional claim furnishes a bond satisfactory to the System to indemnify the System against the claim.
In absence of sufficient reason, within 20 days of receipt of payment of retainage, the contractor shall pay all subcontractors with which it has contracted their earned share of the retainage payment the contractor received.
8.2.104 Withholding of Payments for Good Faith Claims The System may withhold payment for deficiency items according to the terms of the contract. If the System withholds payment from a contractor for a deficiency item, the System shall notify the contractor of the deficiency item within the timeframe specified in the contract or 15 calendar days of the date that the application for payment is received.
The Contractor may withhold payment from any subcontractor who is responsible for any deficiency item for good faith claims. If a contractor withholds payment from a subcontractor for a deficiency item, it must notify the subcontractor or supplier and the System of the reason within 15 calendar days of the date after receipt of the notice of the deficiency item from the System.
8.2.105 Payments to Subcontractors For the purposes of this section, the contract between the contractor and the subcontractor is presumed to incorporate the terms of the contract between the contractor and the System. When a subcontractor has performed in accordance with the provisions of the contract, a contractor shall pay to the subcontractor, and each subcontractor shall in turn pay to its subcontractors, the full or proportioned amount received for each such subcontractor’s work and material, 14 days after receipt of a progress payment. Neither the System nor any Professional shall have any obligation to pay or to see the payment of any monies to any subcontractor except as may be otherwise required by law.
8.2.106 Substantial Completion and Final Payment: For all contracts containing a provision for retainage, the design professional shall make a final inspection within 30 days receipt of a request by the contractor for final inspection and application for final payment. If the work is substantially complete, the design professional shall issue a certificate of substantial completion and a final certificate for payment.
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Facilities Projects Rider B 71K110 (11-11-98) Page 13 of 20
The System shall make payment in full within 45 days except as provided for in Article 8.2.103 Retainage, less only one and one-half times the amount required to complete any then-remaining uncompleted minor items, which amount shall be certified by the design professional and, upon receipt by the System of any guarantee bonds which may be required, in accordance with the contract, to ensure proper workmanship for a designated period of time. The certificate of substantial completion given by the design professional shall list in detail each uncompleted item and a reasonable cost of completion. Final payment of any amount withheld for the completion of the minor items shall be paid upon completion of the uncompleted items listed in the certificate of substantial completion of the design professional.
Payment under this section will be made upon satisfactory completion of the work specified in the Contract Documents and completion of all requirements listed in Section 01027 -Application for Payment.
8.3 ACCEPTANCE OF WORK
8.3.100 An application for progress payment, a progress payment, or any partial or entire use or occupancy of the project by the System shall not constitute an acceptance of any work not in accordance with the Contract Documents.
8.3.101 Partial Occupancy or Use: The System may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the work at any stage when such portion is so designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer, and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the work. Such partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the System and the Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, security, maintenance, heat, insurance, etc. Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the System, Contractor, and Design Professional shall jointly inspect the area in order to determine and record the condition of the work, and agree to the period for correction of this work and as to the commencement of warranties.
8.4 Any person, co-partnership, association, or corporation furnishing labor, material, equipment or renting equipment
or rendering public utility services in connection with performance of this contract shall have a right of action to recover the cost thereof from the Contractor and the Surety on the bond given to secure the payment for such labor, material, equipment or equipment rental and services rendered by public utility as though such person or corporation had been named as obligee in such bond; subject to the provisions of the act 1998 Act 57 Commonwealth Procurement Code.
8.5 NO ESTOPPEL OR WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGHTS
8.5.100 Neither the System nor the Professional shall be precluded or estopped by the measurements or approved applications for payment made or given by any of them or by any of their agents or employees, at any time, either before or after the completion and acceptance of the work and payment thereof, from showing the true and correct amount and character of the work performed and materials and equipment furnished by the Contractor. The System and/or the Professional may show at any time, that any such measurements or approved applications for payment are untrue or incorrectly made in any particular; or that the work or materials, equipment or any parts thereof do not conform to the Contract Documents.
8.5.101 The System shall have the right to reject the whole or any part of the aforesaid work or materials and equipment should the said measurements or approved applications for payment be found or be known to be inconsistent with the terms of the contract, or otherwise improperly given. The System shall not be precluded or estopped, notwithstanding any such measurements or approved applications for payment in accordance therewith, from demanding and recovering from the Contractor or his Surety, or both, such damages as it may sustain by reason of the Contractor's failure to comply with the terms of the Contract Documents, or on account of any over-payments made on any approved applications for payment.
8.5.102 Neither the acceptance by the System or the Professional or any of their agents or employees, nor any certificate approved for payment of money; nor any payments for, nor acceptance of the whole or any part of the work by the System, nor any extension of time, nor any position taken by the System or its employees, shall operate as a waiver of any portion of the contract or any power herein reserved by the System or any right to damages. A waiver of any breach of the contract will not be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

11.2.104 The obligations of the Contractor under this section are in addition to and not in limitation of any obligations imposed upon the Contractor by special guarantees required by the Contract Documents or otherwise prescribed by law. Correction of defective work in no way reduces or eliminates the Contractor's responsibilities under the warranty provisions of the contract.
11.3 ACCEPTANCE OF NON-CONFORMING WORK If the System elects to accept non-conforming work, it may do
so instead of requiring its correction or removal and replacement. If nonconforming work is accepted, a change order shall be issued to reflect an appropriate reduction in the Contract Sum to reflect the actual cost reduction of the change in the work, or, if the amount is determined after final payment, it shall be paid by the Contractor and/or its Surety. In this case, all the costs of uncovering and recovering the work shall be at the expense of the Contractor, and which costs shall not be included as part of any deduct change order.
ARTICLE 12
SUSPENSION OF THE WORK
12.1 SUSPENSION OF WORK FOR CONVENIENCE
12.1.100 The System may order the Contractor in writing to suspend all or any part of the work for such period of time as it may determine to be appropriate for the convenience of the System. This paragraph does not apply under conditions enumerated in Paragraph 12.2--Suspension of Work due to Unfavorable Conditions.
12.1.101 If the performance of all or any part of the work is, for an unreasonable period of time, suspended by the System, an adjustment shall be made for any increase in the cost of performance of this Contract (excluding profit) necessarily caused by such unreasonable suspension. The Contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. No adjustment shall be made under this clause for any suspension to the extent that performance would have been so suspended by any other cause, including the fault or negligence of the Contractor; or for which an equitable adjustment is provided for or excluded under any other provision of this Contract.
12.1.102 No claim under this clause shall be allowed unless the claim, in an amount stated, is asserted in writing as soon as practicable after the termination of such suspension. The claim may not be asserted later than the date of Final Completion under the Agreement.
12.2 SUSPENSION OF WORK DUE TO UNFAVORABLE CONDITIONS
12.2.100 If, in the judgment of the System, the Contractor is taking undue risk of damage to any part of a structure or installation by proceeding with the work during unfavorable weather or other conditions, then the System may suspend the work temporarily, either wholly or in part for such periods as are necessary. In case of such suspension, a proper extension of time will be allowed as provided herein, but no allowance will be made to the Contractor for any expense or damages resulting from the suspension. The failure of the System to suspend the work does not relieve the Contractor of its responsibility to perform the work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
12.2.101 The System may require a suspension of the work if, in its opinion, unforeseen conditions warrant such stoppage. When the System directs resumption of the work, the Contractor shall resume full operations within a period of ten

Facilities Projects Rider B 71K110 (11-11-98) Page 18 of 20
(10) days after the date of written notice to do so. The System is not liable for any damage or anticipated profits on account of the work being suspended.
12.2.102 Any work done by the Contractor during the period of suspension is its responsibility. The contractor shall receive no payment for the work unless the construction is subsequently resume and the work done during the intervals of suspension can be utilized in the resumed work.
12.2.103 Suspensions of work as outlined above shall not in themselves operate to extend the Contract date of completion. Requests for extensions of time shall be submitted in writing by the Contractor, setting forth its reasons for the extension.
12.3 SUSPENSION OF WORK FOR FAULT OF THE CONTRACTOR Should the Contractor fail to comply with the
orders of the System relative to any particular parts of the work, the System may suspend the work on any or all parts until its orders respecting the particular parts are complied with. In case of such suspension, which shall be considered due to the fault of the Contractor, no extension of time shall be given and no allowance will be made for the expenses incurred by the Contractor during the suspension period.
ARTICLE 13
TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT
13.1 TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE
13.1.100 The System may, at any time and for any reason, terminate this Agreement for the convenience of the System. In such case, the Contractor shall be paid (and shall accept payment) for that portion of the entire Contract actually performed to the date of termination, excluding, however, any loss of anticipated profits. Disputes as to the sum payable to the Contractor shall be settled in accordance with the Disputes Article of the Agreement.
13.1.101 Such termination shall be effective in the manner and at the time specified in such notice and shall be without prejudice to any claims that the System may have against the Contractor. Upon receipt of such notice from the System, the Contractor shall immediately discontinue all work and the placing of all orders for materials and equipment, facilities and supplies in connection with the performance of this Contract. The Contractor shall cancel promptly all existing orders and terminate work under all subcontracts so far as such orders and work are chargeable to this Contract. The Contractor shall take such measures for the protection of the property of the System as may be directed by the System.
13.1.102 Upon termination of this Agreement, as provided by this paragraph, full and complete adjustment and payment of all amounts due the Contractor arising out of this Agreement as determined by an audit conducted by or for the System, as soon as practicable after such termination, shall be made as follows:

13.2 TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT OF THE CONTRACTOR
13.2.100 If the Contractor persistently or repeatedly refuses or fails to supply enough properly skilled workmen or proper materials, or persistently disregards laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders of any public authority having jurisdiction, or fails to proceed as directed by the System, or performs the work unsuitably, or neglects or refuses to remove materials or replace rejected work, or discontinues the prosecution of the work without approval of the System, or otherwise is guilty of a substantial violation of a provision of the Contract Documents, then the System may, without prejudice to any of its other rights or remedies, give the Contractor and its Surety written notice that the Contractor has seven (7) days from the date of the System's notice to cure the default set forth in the notice.
The discretion to declare the Contractor in default is solely the Systems, and, no party, whether bound by Agreement to the System or attempting to raise a third party relationship, which this Contract specifically precludes, has standing to raise the failure of the System to exercise its discretion, if default is the basis of a claim against the System. Should the Contractor fail to cure said default within the specified time, the System may terminate the Agreement between the System and the Contractor and may take possession of the site and of all materials, equipment, tools, construction equipment and machinery, which is owned by the Contractor, located on the property and may finish the work by whatever method it may deem expedient.
13.2.101 In such case, the Contractor is not entitled to receive any further payment until the work is finished, at which time the Contractor shall be paid any excess remaining. If the unpaid balance of the Contract sum exceeds the cost of finishing the work, including compensation for the Professional's additional services and any other damages which the System has incurred in accordance with the Agreement, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs exceed the unpaid balance, the Contractor or the Surety or both shall pay the difference to the System.
13.2.102 In the event the System wrongfully terminates the contract, as determined by disputes resolution procedures in the disputes section of the General Conditions, such termination shall be considered termination for convenience. The Contractor shall be paid only for the work completed to the termination date and for the materials delivered to the site that is peculiar to the project, and for other costs incidental to termination to the date of termination.

RIDER C INSTRUCTION TO BIDDERS
It is the responsibility of the bidder by careful personal examination of the contract documents to satisfy himself as to the nature and location of the work, as well as all environmental conditions that may effect performance of the work. All bidders should visit the site to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the existing conditions. If any discrepancies should be found between existing conditions and the Contract Documents, prospective bidders shall report these discrepancies to the System for clarification prior to submitting a bid. Requests for interpretation of the work to be performed shall be submitted in writing to the System or the System's designated representative. Failure of the bidder to visit the site, recognize and take into account in their bid site conditions that affect the work, shall not be considered sufficient cause for any increase in the agreed upon contracted amount.
If a bid guaranty is required, a certified check, bank cashier’s check, or Bid Bond must accompany each proposal. Failure to submit a bid guaranty, if required, will result in the rejection of the Bid Proposal as unresponsive. If a Bid Bond is used as the guaranty, it must be submitted on the System-furnished Bid Bond form, complete with all signatures, seals, and certificate of power of attorney.
Each proposal shall be submitted in sealed envelopes marked plainly on the outside with the contract number, bid opening date and time, delivered within the time specified for the bid opening to be considered as responsive to the bid requirements. The proposal shall remain sealed until publicly opened, read, and tabulated. Bids may be withdrawn up to the time of bid opening provided a written request is received prior to the time specified for bid opening. Bids may be withdrawn after the bid opening in accordance with Act 1998-57 Commonwealth Procurement Code, within 2 working days after the time designated as the date of the bid opening. All bids shall be unconditionally accepted without alteration or modification except as authorized in the bidding documents. The System reserves the right to reject any or all bids for any reason.
The proposals of any bidder or bidders who engage in collusive bidding shall be rejected. Any bidder who submits more than one proposal in such manner as to make it appear that the proposals submitted are on a competitive basis from different parties shall be considered a collusive bidder. The System may reject the bid proposals of any collusive bidder upon bid openings of future projects. Nothing in this section shall prevent a bidder from superseding a bid proposal by a subsequent proposal delivered prior to bid opening that expressly revokes the previous bid.
An actual or prospective bidder who is aggrieved concerning the solicitation or award of a contract may protest, in writing, to the University contracting officer. All protests must be made within seven (7) days after the bidder knows or should have known of the facts giving rise to the protest. If a protest is submitted by a protestant who did not submit a bid, the protest must be received by the university contracting officer prior to the bid opening time or the bid proposal receipt date or it shall be considered untimely and will be disregarded.
Upon request, or if specifically required by the terms of the bid form, the apparent low bidder may be requested to submit a contractor's qualification and/or financial statement within ten (10) calendar days of bid date, with financial information current within twelve (12) months prior to the bid date, of which statements shall be certified to be true and correct by an affidavit sworn to or affirmed before a notary public, or other officer empowered to administer oaths or affirmations. Failure to submit the required information, when requested, may result in rejection of the Bid Proposal.
The System may, solely at its own discretion, award the contract to the lowest responsive responsible bidder within sixty (60) days from the date of bid opening, and shall have the right to waive technical defects if in the best interest of the System. A time extension may be made by written consent of the lowest responsive responsible bidder. Award will be made by letter mailed to the Contractor and shall be effective the date of the mailing.

Failure of the Bidder to execute the required Contract Bond within the time specified will result in payment to the System, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages, their proposal guaranty, in the amount of the difference between their bid proposal and the next lowest responsive responsible bid proposal, or the proposal guaranty amount, whichever is less. The System shall have the right to award the contract to the next lowest responsive responsible bidder. In the event a bidder fails, refuses, or neglects to provide any requested information or documents within the time stated in the Bid Documents or in the request, the System will have the right to reject their bid proposal as unresponsive.
The Notice to Proceed will be made by letter mailed to the Contractor and shall be effective the date of the mailing. The System will endeavor to issue the Notice to Proceed within 120 days of the Bid Opening. Any delays caused by the Contractor's failure to provide any required documents within the specified time will cause an equivalent number of days to be added to this time frame. The Contractor will commence work on the project site within 10 days of the Notice to Proceed. The Contractor should not order any materials or equipment or make any financial commitments concerning this contract until receiving the System's Notice to Proceed. Contractor's that do work prior to receiving the System’s Notice to Proceed are proceeding at his own risk.

of July 9, 1984 (73 P.S. Section 1881 et seq.), only steel products as defined in the Act shall be used or supplied in the performance of the contract or any subcontracts thereunder.
The System shall not provide for, or make any payments to, any person who has not complied with
the Act. Any such payments made to any person by the System which should not have been made as a result of the Act, shall be recoverable directly from the contractor, subcontractor, manufacturer or supplier who did not comply with the Act by either the System or the Attorney General of Pennsylvania upon suit filed in the Court of Common Pleas of any county in which such contract was executed or in whole part performed.
In addition to the withholding of payments, any person who willfully violates any of the provisions of
the Act shall be prohibited from submitting any bids to any public agency for a period of five (5) years from the date of the determination that a violation has occurred. In the event the person who violates the provisions of the Act is a subcontractor, manufacturer or supplier, such person shall be prohibited from performing any work or supplying any materials to a public agency for a period of five (5) years from the date of the determination that a violation has occurred.
The contractor shall include the provisions of the Steel Products Procurement Act in every
subcontract and supply contract, so that the provisions of the Act shall be binding upon each subcontractor and/or material supplier.
Where trade names, catalog number and manufacturers of materials or equipment are specified,
they are mentioned therein for the purpose of establishing a standard of quality, performance and appearance, and for establishing a standard of competitive bidding. The use of these descriptive names, numbers, etc. will not relieve the contractor with compliance with all respects of the above Act.
Exception to this provision may be inserted in the contract, but only where the Chancellor or his
designee, in writing, determines that steel products as herein defined are not produced in the United States in sufficient quantities to meet the requirements of the contract.
B. Guidelines to the Steel Products Procurement Act (1) What items are subject to the Act? All items that are: a. Incorporated into the Project: Items that will not be removed upon completion of the
Project. b. Produced in the United States: If you are unable to find a steel product that contains
steel manufactured in the United States in sufficient quantities for the project, submit Form ST-4 (Not Domestically Manufactured: Contractors) with the names and addresses of suppliers that informed you that said product is not made with United States Manufactured Steel, to this office. Your claim will be researched and, upon written permission of the System, you may incorporate the product.
c. A Steel Product which the Act defines as all items that contain steel and/or cast iron
products, and shall include the machinery and equipment that is listed in the U.S. Department of Commerce Standard Industrial Classification 25 (furniture and fixture), 35 (machinery, except electrical) and 37 (transportation equipment), and made of ,fabricated from , or containing steel components. CONTACT THE SYSTEM PROJECT REPRESENTATIVE FOR A DETERMINATION.
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Special Requirements Page 3 of 7
(2) Contractors are required to present certifications with each steel product they intend to incorporate into their project. CONTACT THE SYSTEM PROJECT REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE APPROPRIATE FORMS. a. If 100% of the steel is identifiably marked as manufactured in the United States
(i.e., stamped Manufactured in the United States), all that is necessary is that the contractor submit Form ST-1 certifying that the product is identifiably marked as provided.
b. If less than 100% of the steel is identifiably marked as manufactured in the United States, the type of certification required depends upon whether or not the
steel product is structural steel. If it is structural steel, (which is defined as steel products used as a basic
structural element of a decking, steel stairways, steel reinforcing bars, steel structural lintels, steel pipes, steel joists, etc.) the party who intends to incorporate the steel product must complete Form ST-1 and product "documentation including, but not limited to, invoices, bills of lading, and mill certification that the steel was melted and manufactured in the United States." (Section 5(a) of the Act).
if it is not structural steel (i.e., door frames, window frames, machinery and
equipment, or any product which is not considered by the System to be structural) the contractor must provide Form ST-1. The Contractor must also provide Form ST-2 signed by the Fabricator, stating that the steel products contained in the item are manufactured in the United States. The Fabricator is the firm that actually assembles the components of the product, as opposed to a Supplier or Distributor who simply stocks and sells the product.
c. If a product is known to contain both foreign and United States Steel, such products
shall be determined to be a United States Steel product only if at least 75% of the cost of the articles, materials, and supplies have been mined, produced, or manufactured, as the case may be, in the United States.
As long as 100% of the steel in an item is U.S. Manufactured Steel, then the item is
in compliance with the Act no matter where the non-steel components of the item are manufactured. However, if the product contains both American and Foreign steel, then it must be shown that 75% of the product contains material produced or manufactured in the United States, INCLUDING EVERY MATERIAL IN THE ITEM, (Steel, Rubber, Plastic, Wood, etc.).
If both foreign and domestically manufactured steel are found in an item, have the
Fabricator execute Form ST-3 (75% U.S. Manufacture Certifications: Fabricator). BE SURE HE WILL COMPLETE SAID FORM BEFORE PURCHASING THE PRODUCT. On said form, the Fabricator will certify the total costs of all materials used in the product, as well as the total cost of the materials used in the product that are produced/manufactured in the United States. If 75% or more of the materials are domestic, no further certification is required.
3. REGULATIONS GOVERNING ASBESTOS A. The University has attempted to remove all asbestos containing material (ACM) in areas affected
by this project prior to the start of construction. There is a possibility that ACM may be discovered during the course of the project, however. Should material known or suspected to contain asbestos be encountered, the contractor must cease operations in that area and notify the System representative immediately. In this event, the System will:
Restrict or deny access to all or part of the site if deemed necessary for protection of
workers and occupants during testing and removal operations.
FOR REFRENCE ONLY
Special Requirements Page 4 of 7
Have material tested to verify presence or absence of ACM if such testing has not previously been performed.
If ACM is present, contract to have the material removed by a qualified contractor in
accordance with the latest applicable statutes and regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the latest rules and regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency as they pertain to the emission of asbestos into the air during construction and demolition work.
B. Should asbestos material be encountered on the job, each contractor shall comply with all of the
latest statutes and regulations of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and all of the latest rules and regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency as they pertain to the emission of asbestos into the air during construction and demolition work and the disposal of material asbestos. Particular attention is drawn to Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 61, "Section 112 of Clean Air Act."
"Each Contractor shall comply fully with the latest regulations of OSHA as they pertain to
the protection of workers exposed to the emission of asbestos fibers and shall take all steps necessary to protect his employees, as well as all other people engaged in the building, from exposure to asbestos fibers resulting from his work."
C. After review of the proposed adjustments to the schedule from the contractor, the System will grant
an extension of time for delays caused by the asbestos testing and removal operations. Extensions will be granted only if the contractor can document that areas affected and made inaccessible had a direct impact on the critical path of the project.
4. ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY CONTROL A. All prime contractors and their subcontractors shall perform their work in a manner which shall
minimize the possibility of air, water, land and noise pollution, in accordance with the General Conditions.
B. Each prime contractor shall comply with all statutes and regulations of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania concerning environmental quality control administered by the Department of Environmental Resources, including the Clean Streams Law, Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act, Air Pollution Control Act, Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act, Bituminous Coal Open Pit Mining Conservation Act, Dams and Encroachments Act, Water Well Driller's Act, Water Works Act and Atomic Energy Act all as amended to date. Each Contractor will be solely responsible for any violations and shall be responsible for securing all required permits.
C. Burning of materials from clearing and grubbing operations, periodic and final clean-up, and all
related construction shall be governed by local codes and ordinances and/or the Regulations of the Department of Environmental Resources. For each day that the Contractor may contemplate open burning, he shall secure written approval from the Department of Environmental Resources. Failure to secure permission for open burning will require prime contractor to remove material from project site and dispose of same in a manner acceptable to the Air Pollution Control Engineer and the Solid Waste Coordinator.
D. Storage, collection, transportation, processing and final disposal of solid waste shall be in
accordance with regulations and standards of the Solid Waste Management Act of the Department of Environmental Resources. Immediately upon notice of award of contract the contractor shall apply for necessary permit from Department of Environmental Resources and conduct waste disposal on sites approved under this permit. A copy of this permit must be submitted to the University Project Manager before commencing waste disposal. Name, address and telephone number of the regional Solid Waste Coordinator of the Department of Environmental Resources is furnished below. This coordinator shall be contacted for permit and for information concerning sites already approved for conduction waste disposal.

NOTICE - IMPLEMENTATION OF PA E-VERIFY
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania enacted Act 127 of 2012, known as the Public Works Employment
Verification Act (‘the Act’), which requires all public work contractors and subcontractors to utilize the Federal
Government’s E-Verify system (EVP) to ensure that all employees performing work on public work projects are
authorized to work in the United States.
The Department of General Services’ (DGS) Public Works Employment Verification Compliance Program is
responsible for the administration, education, and enforcement of the Act. It provides contractors and
subcontractors with educational outreach, conducts investigations when complaints are received, and conducts
random audits to ensure compliance with the requirements of this Act. Contracts resulting from this solicitation
will fall under the Act and the associated DGS compliance program.
Information on the Act and DGS' program are available on this DGS web site:
