termination of the Project. The cost of any work performed after the expiration date of this Agreement will not be
reimbursed by the Department.
4. Project Cost:
A. The total cost of the Project is $ 873,817.00. This amount is based upon the schedule of funding in

the Department, provide the Department with a corrective action plan describing how the Agency will
address all issues of contract non-performance, unacceptable performance, failure to meet the minimum
performance levels, deliverable deficiencies, or contract non-compliance. If the corrective action plan is
unacceptable to the Department, the Agency shall be assessed a non-performance retainage equivalent
to 10% of the total invoice amount. The retainage shall be applied to the invoice for the then -current
billing period. The retainage shall be withheld until the Agency resolves the deficiency. If the deficiency
is subsequently resolved, the Agency may bill the Department for the retained amount during the next

Interest penalties of less than one (1) dollar will not be enforced unless the Agency requests payment.
Invoices that have to be returned to an Agency because of Agency preparation errors will result in a delay
in the payment. The invoice payment requirements do not start until a properly completed invoice is
provided to the Department.
A Vendor Ombudsman has been established within the Department of Financial Services. The duties of
this individual include acting as an advocate for Agencies who may be experiencing problems in obtaining
timely payment(s) from a state agency. The Vendor Ombudsman may be contacted at (850) 413-5516.
H. Records of costs incurred under the terms of this Agreement shall be maintained and made available
upon request to the Department at all times during the period of this Agreement and for five years after
final payment is made. Copies of these documents and records shall be furnished to the Department
upon request. Records of costs incurred include the Agency's general accounting records and the project
records, together with supporting documents and records, of the contractor and all subcontractors
performing work on the project, and all other records of the Contractor and subcontractors considered
necessary by the Department for a proper audit of costs.
Prior to the execution of this Agreement, a Project schedule of funding shall be prepared by the Agency
and approved by the Department. The Agency shall maintain said schedule of funding, carry out the
Project, and shall incur obligations against and make disbursements of Project funds only in conformity
with the latest approved schedule of funding for the Project. The schedule of funding may be revised by

Agency. The Agency acknowledges and agrees that funding for this project may be reduced upon
determination of the agency's contract award amount. If revised, a copy of the Supplemental Agreement
shall be forwarded to the Department's Comptroller. No increase or decrease shall be effective unless it
complies with fund participation requirements of this Agreement and is approved by the Department's
Comptroller.
J. If, after Project completion, any claim is made by the Department resulting from an audit or for work or
services performed pursuant to this Agreement, the Department may offset such amount from payments
due for work or services done under any agreement which it has with the Agency owing such amount if,
upon demand, payment of the amount is not made within 60 days to the Department. Offsetting any
amount pursuant to this paragraph shall not be considered a breach of contract by the Department.
K. The Agency must submit the final invoice on the Project to the Department within 120 days after the
completion of the Project. Invoices submitted after the 120 -day time period may not be paid.
L. The Department's performance and obligation to pay under this Agreement is contingent upon an annual
appropriation by the Legislature. If the Department's funding for this Project is in multiple fiscal years,
funds approval from the Department's Comptroller must be received each fiscal year prior to costs being
incurred. See Exhibit "B" for funding levels by fiscal year. Project costs utilizing these fiscal year funds
are not eligible for reimbursement if incurred prior to funds approval being received. The Department will
notify the Agency, in writing, when funds are available.
M. In the event this Agreement is in excess of $25,000 and has a term for a period of more than one year,
the provisions of Section 339.135(6)(a), Florida Statutes, are hereby incorporated:
"The Department, during any fiscal year, shall not expend money, incur any liability, or
enter into any contract which, by its terms, involves the expenditure of money in excess
of the amounts budgeted as available for expenditure during such fiscal year. Any
contract, verbal or written, made in violation of this subsection is null and void, and no
money may be paid on such contract. The Department shall require a statement from the
comptroller of the Department that funds are available prior to entering into any such
contract or other binding commitment of funds. Nothing herein contained shall prevent
the making of contracts for periods exceeding 1 year, but any contract so made shall be
STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 525-010-40

Page 4 of 15
executory only for the value of the services to be rendered or agreed to be paid for in
succeeding fiscal years, and this paragraph shall be incorporated verbatim in all contracts
of the Department which are for an amount in excess of $25,000 and which have a term
for a period of more than 1 year."
6. Department Payment Obligations: Subject to other provisions of this Agreement, the Department will honor
requests for reimbursement to the Agency pursuant to this Agreement. However, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the Department may elect by notice in writing not to make a payment if:
A. The Agency shall have made misrepresentation of a material nature in its application, or any supplement
or amendment to its application, or with respect to any document or data furnished with its application or
pursuant to this Agreement;
B. There is any pending litigation with respect to the performance by the Agency of any of its duties or
obligations which may jeopardize or adversely affect the Project, the Agreement or payments to the
Project;
C. The Agency shall have taken any action pertaining to the Project which, under this Agreement, requires
the approval of the Department or has made a related expenditure or incurred related obligations without
having been advised by the Department that same are approved;
D. There has been any violation of the conflict of interest provisions contained in paragraph 16.J.; or
E. The Agency has been determined by the Department to be in default under any of the provisions of the
Agreement.
The Department may suspend or terminate payment for that portion of the Project which the Federal Highway
Administration ("FHWA"), or the Department acting in lieu of FHWA, may designate as ineligible for Federal -aid.
In determining the amount of the payment, the Department will exclude all Project costs incurred by the Agency prior to
the Department's issuance of a Notice to Proceed ("NTP"), costs incurred after the expiration of the Agreement, costs
which are not provided for in the latest approved schedule of funding in Exhibit "B" for the Project, costs agreed to be
borne by the Agency or its contractors and subcontractors for not meeting the Project commencement and final invoice
time lines, and costs attributable to goods or services received under a contract or other arrangements which have not
been approved in writing by the Department.
7. General Requirements: The Agency shall complete the Project with all practical dispatch, in a sound,
economical, and efficient manner, and in accordance with the provisions in this Agreement, and all applicable laws. The
Project will be performed in accordance with all applicable Department procedures, guidelines, manuals, standards, and
directives as described in the Department's Local Agency Program Manual, which by this reference is made a part of this
Agreement. Time is of the essence as to each and every obligation under this Agreement.
A. A full time employee of the Agency, qualified to ensure that the work being pursued is complete, accurate,
and consistent with the terms, conditions, and specifications of this Agreement shall be in responsible
charge of the Project, which employee should be able to perform the following duties and functions:

STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 525-010-40
LOCAL AGENCY PROGRAM AGREEMENT PROGRAM MANAGEMENTOGC_08/15 OGC— 08/15

v. Reviews financial processes, transactions and documentation to ensure that safeguards are in
place to minimize fraud, waste, and abuse;
vi. Directs Project staff, agency or consultant, to carry out Project administration and contract
oversight, including proper documentation;
vii. Is aware of the qualifications, assignments and on-the-job performance of the Agency and
consultant staff at all stages of the Project.
B. Once the Department issues the NTP for the Project, the Agency shall be obligated to submit an invoice
or other request for reimbursement to the Department on a quarterly basis, beginning from the day the
NTP is issued. If the Agency fails to submit quarterly invoices to the Department, and in the event the
failure to timely submit invoices to the Department results in the "FHWA" removing any unbilled funding or
the loss of State appropriation authority (which may include the loss of state and federal funds, if there
are state funds programmed to the Project), then the Agency will be solely responsible to provide all
funds necessary to complete the Project and the Department will not be obligated to provide any
additional funding for the Project. The Agency waives the right to contest such removal of funds by the
Department, if the removal is related to FHWA's withdrawal of funds or if the removal is related to the loss
of State appropriation authority. In addition to the loss of funding for the Project, the Department will also
consider the de -certification of the Agency for future LAP Projects. No cost may be incurred under this
Agreement until after the Agency has received a written NTP from the Department. The Agency agrees to
advertise or put the Project out to bid thirty (30) days from the date the Department issues the NTP to
advertise the Project. If the Agency is not able to meet the scheduled advertisement, the District LAP
Administrator should be notified as soon as possible.
C. If all funds are removed from the Project, including amounts previously billed to the Department and
reimbursed to the Agency, and the Project is off the state highway system, then the Department will have
to request repayment for the previously billed amounts from the Agency. No state funds can be used on
off -system projects, unless authorized pursuant to Exhibit "G", State Funds Addendum, which will be
attached to and incorporated in this Agreement in the event state funds are used on the Project.
D. In the event that any election, referendum, approval, permit, notice or other proceeding or authorization is
required under applicable law to enable the Agency to enter into this Agreement or to undertake the
Project or to observe, assume or carry out any of the provisions of the Agreement, the Agency will initiate
and consummate, as provided by law, all actions necessary with respect to any such matters.
E. The Agency shall initiate and prosecute to completion all proceedings necessary, including Federal -aid
requirements, to enable the Agency to provide the necessary funds for completion of the Project.
F. The Agency shall submit to the Department such data, reports, records, contracts, and other documents
relating to the Project as the Department and FHWA may require. The Agency shall use the
Department's Local Agency Program Information Tool and applicable information systems as required.
G. Federal -aid funds shall not participate in any cost which is not incurred in conformity with applicable
federal and State laws, the regulations in 23 Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.) and 49 C.F.R., and
policies and procedures prescribed by the Division Administrator of FHWA. Federal funds shall not be
paid on account of any cost incurred prior to authorization by FHWA to the Department to proceed with
the Project or part thereof involving such cost (23 C.F.R. 1.9 (a)). If FHWA or the Department determines
that any amount claimed is not eligible, federal participation may be approved in the amount determined
to be adequately supported and the Department shall notify the Agency in writing citing the reasons why
items and amounts are not eligible for federal participation. Where correctable non-compliance with
provisions of law or FHWA requirements exists. Federal funds may be withheld until compliance is
obtained. Where non-compliance is not correctable, FHWA or the Department may deny participation in
parcel or Project costs in part or in total. For any amounts determined to be ineligible for federal
reimbursement for which the Department has advanced payment, the Agency shall promptly reimburse
the Department for all such amounts within 90 days of written notice.

or obligate itself in any manner requiring the disbursement of Department funds, including consultant or

consultant or contractor.
B. It is understood and agreed by the parties to this Agreement that participation by the Department in a

Florida Statutes, Consultants' Competitive Negotiation Act, the federal Brooks Act, 23 C.F.R. 172, and 23
U.S.C. 112. At the discretion of the Department, the Agency will involve the Department in the consultant

I. GENERAL
1. Form FHWA-1273 must be physically incorporated in each
construction contract funded under Title 23 (excluding
emergency contracts solely intended for debris removal). The
contractor (or subcontractor) must insert this form in each
subcontract and further require its inclusion in all lower tier
subcontracts (excluding purchase orders, rental agreements
and other agreements for supplies or services).
The applicable requirements of Form FHWA-1273 are
incorporated by reference for work done under any purchase
order, rental agreement or agreement for other services. The
prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any
subcontractor, lower -tier subcontractor or service provider.
Form FHWA-1273 must be included in all Federal -aid design -
build contracts, in all subcontracts and in lower tier
subcontracts (excluding subcontracts for design services,
purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for
supplies or services). The design -builder shall be responsible
for compliance by any subcontractor, lower -tier subcontractor
or service provider.
Contracting agencies may reference Form FHWA-1273 in bid
proposal or request for proposal documents, however, the
Form FHWA-1273 must be physically incorporated (not
referenced) in all contracts, subcontracts and lower -tier
subcontracts (excluding purchase orders, rental agreements
and other agreements for supplies or services related to a
construction contract).
2. Subject to the applicability criteria noted in the following
sections, these contract provisions shall apply to all work
performed on the contract by the contractor's own organization
and with the assistance of workers under the contractor's
immediate superintendence and to all work performed on the
contract by piecework, station work, or by subcontract.

3. A breach of any of the stipulations contained in these
Required Contract Provisions may be sufficient grounds for
withholding of progress payments, withholding of final
payment, termination of the contract, suspension / debarment
or any other action determined to be appropriate by the
contracting agency and FHWA.
4. Selection of Labor: During the performance of this contract,
the contractor shall not use convict labor for any purpose
within the limits of a construction project on a Federal -aid
highway unless it is labor performed by convicts who are on
parole, supervised release, or probation. The term Federal -aid
highway does not include roadways functionally classified as
local roads or rural minor collectors.
II. NONDISCRIMINATION
The provisions of this section related to 23 CFR Part 230 are
applicable to all Federal -aid construction contracts and to all
related construction subcontracts of $10,000 or more. The
provisions of 23 CFR Part 230 are not applicable to material
supply, engineering, or architectural service contracts.
In addition, the contractor and all subcontractors must comply
with the following policies: Executive Order 11246, 41 CFR 60,
29 CFR 1625-1627, Title 23 USC Section 140, the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 USC 794), Title VI
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and related
regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26 and 27; and 23 CFR
Parts 200, 230, and 633.
The contractor and all subcontractors must comply with: the
requirements of the Equal Opportunity Clause in 41 CFR 60-
1.4(b) and, for all construction contracts exceeding $10,000,
the Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity
Construction Contract Specifications in 41 CFR 60-4.3.
Note: The U.S. Department of Labor has exclusive authority to
determine compliance with Executive Order 11246 and the
policies of the Secretary of Labor including 41 CFR 60, and 29
CFR 1625-1627. The contracting agency and the FHWA have
the authority and the responsibility to ensure compliance with
Title 23 USC Section 140, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as
amended (29 USC 794), and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, as amended, and related regulations including 49 CFR
Parts 21, 26 and 27; and 23 CFR Parts 200, 230, and 633.
The following provision is adopted from 23 CFR 230, Appendix
A, with appropriate revisions to conform to the U.S.
Department of Labor (US DOL) and FHWA requirements.
1. Equal Employment Opportunity: Equal employment
opportunity (EEO) requirements not to discriminate and to take
affirmative action to assure equal opportunity as set forth
under laws, executive orders, rules, regulations (28 CFR 35,
29 CFR 1630, 29 CFR 1625-1627, 41 CFR 60 and 49 CFR 27)
and orders of the Secretary of Labor as modified by the
provisions prescribed herein, and imposed pursuant to 23
U.S.C. 140 shall constitute the EEO and specific affirmative
action standards for the contractor's project activities under
this contract. The provisions of the Americans with Disabilities
Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR
35 and 29 CFR 1630 are incorporated by reference in this
contract. In the execution of this contract, the contractor
agrees to comply with the following minimum specific
requirement activities of EEO:
a. The contractor will work with the contracting agency and
the Federal Government to ensure that it has made every
good faith effort to provide equal opportunity with respect to all
of its terms and conditions of employment and in their review
of activities under the contract.
b. The contractor will accept as its operating policy the
following statement:
"It is the policy of this Company to assure that applicants
are employed, and that employees are treated during
employment, without regard to their race, religion, sex, color,
national origin, age or disability. Such action shall include:
employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or
recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or
other forms of compensation; and selection for training,
including apprenticeship, pre -apprenticeship, and/or on-the-
job training."
2. EEO Officer: The contractor will designate and make
known to the contracting officers an EEO Officer who will have
the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively
administering and promoting an active EEO program and who
must be assigned adequate authority and responsibility to do
so.
3. Dissemination of Policy: All members of the contractor's
staff who are authorized to hire, supervise, promote, and
discharge employees, or who recommend such action, or who
are substantially involved in such action, will be made fully
cognizant of, and will implement, the contractor's EEO policy
and contractual responsibilities to provide EEO in each grade
and classification of employment. To ensure that the above
agreement will be met, the following actions will be taken as a
minimum:
a. Periodic meetings of supervisory and personnel office
employees will be conducted before the start of work and then
not less often than once every six months, at which time the
contractor's EEO policy and its implementation will be
reviewed and explained. The meetings will be conducted by
the EEO Officer.
b. All new supervisory or personnel office employees will be
given a thorough indoctrination by the EEO Officer, covering
all major aspects of the contractor's EEO obligations within
thirty days following their reporting for duty with the contractor.
c. All personnel who are engaged in direct recruitment for
the project will be instructed by the EEO Officer in the
contractor's procedures for locating and hiring minorities and
women.
d. Notices and posters setting forth the contractor's EEO
policy will be placed in areas readily accessible to employees,
applicants for employment and potential employees.
e. The contractor's EEO policy and the procedures to
implement such policy will be brought to the attention of
employees by means of meetings, employee handbooks, or
other appropriate means.
4. Recruitment: When advertising for employees, the
contractor will include in all advertisements for employees the
notation: "An Equal Opportunity Employer." All such
advertisements will be placed in publications having a large
circulation among minorities and women in the area from
which the project work force would normally be derived.
a. The contractor will, unless precluded by a valid
bargaining agreement, conduct systematic and direct
recruitment through public and private employee referral
sources likely to yield qualified minorities and women. To
meet this requirement, the contractor will identify sources of
potential minority group employees, and establish with such
identified sources procedures whereby minority and women
applicants may be referred to the contractor for employment
consideration.
b. In the event the contractor has a valid bargaining
agreement providing for exclusive hiring hall referrals, the
contractor is expected to observe the provisions of that
agreement to the extent that the system meets the contractor's
compliance with EEO contract provisions. Where
implementation of such an agreement has the effect of
discriminating against minorities or women, or obligates the
contractor to do the same, such implementation violates
Federal nondiscrimination provisions.
c. The contractor will encourage its present employees to
refer minorities and women as applicants for employment.
Information and procedures with regard to referring such
applicants will be discussed with employees.
5. Personnel Actions: Wages, working conditions, and
employee benefits shall be established and administered, and
personnel actions of every type, including hiring, upgrading,
promotion, transfer, demotion, layoff, and termination, shall be
taken without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national
origin, age or disability. The following procedures shall be
followed:
a. The contractor will conduct periodic inspections of project
sites to insure that working conditions and employee facilities
do not indicate discriminatory treatment of project site
personnel.
b. The contractor will periodically evaluate the spread of
wages paid within each classification to determine any
evidence of discriminatory wage practices.
c. The contractor will periodically review selected personnel
actions in depth to determine whether there is evidence of
discrimination. Where evidence is found, the contractor will
promptly take corrective action. If the review indicates that the
discrimination may extend beyond the actions reviewed, such
corrective action shall include all affected persons.
d. The contractor will promptly investigate all complaints of
alleged discrimination made to the contractor in connection
with its obligations under this contract, will attempt to resolve
such complaints, and will take appropriate corrective action
within a reasonable time. If the investigation indicates that the
discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant,
such corrective action shall include such other persons. Upon
completion of each investigation, the contractor will inform
every complainant of all of their avenues of appeal.
6. Training and Promotion:
a. The contractor will assist in locating, qualifying, and
increasing the skills of minorities and women who are
applicants for employment or current employees. Such efforts
should be aimed at developing full journey level status
employees in the type of trade or job classification involved.
b. Consistent with the contractor's work force requirements
and as permissible under Federal and State regulations, the
contractor shall make full use of training programs, i.e.,
apprenticeship, and on-the-job training programs for the
geographical area of contract performance. In the event a
special provision for training is provided under this contract,
this subparagraph will be superseded as indicated in the
special provision. The contracting agency may reserve
training positions for persons who receive welfare assistance
in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 140(a).
c. The contractor will advise employees and applicants for
employment of available training programs and entrance
requirements for each.
d. The contractor will periodically review the training and
promotion potential of employees who are minorities and
women and will encourage eligible employees to apply for
such training and promotion.
7. Unions: If the contractor relies in whole or in part upon
unions as a source of employees, the contractor will use good
faith efforts to obtain the cooperation of such unions to
increase opportunities for minorities and women. Actions by
the contractor, either directly or through a contractor's
association acting as agent, will include the procedures set
forth below:
a. The contractor will use good faith efforts to develop, in
cooperation with the unions, joint training programs aimed
toward qualifying more minorities and women for membership
in the unions and increasing the skills of minorities and women
so that they may qualify for higher paying employment.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to incorporate an
EEO clause into each union agreement to the end that such
union will be contractually bound to refer applicants without
regard to their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or
disability.
c. The contractor is to obtain information as to the referral
practices and policies of the labor union except that to the
extent such information is within the exclusive possession of
the labor union and such labor union refuses to furnish such
information to the contractor, the contractor shall so certify to
the contracting agency and shall set forth what efforts have
been made to obtain such information.
d. In the event the union is unable to provide the contractor
with a reasonable flow of referrals within the time limit set forth
in the collective bargaining agreement, the contractor will,
through independent recruitment efforts, fill the employment
vacancies without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national
origin, age or disability; making full efforts to obtain qualified
and/or qualifiable minorities and women. The failure of a union
to provide sufficient referrals (even though it is obligated to
provide exclusive referrals under the terms of a collective
bargaining agreement) does not relieve the contractor from the
requirements of this paragraph. In the event the union referral
practice prevents the contractor from meeting the obligations
pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and these
special provisions, such contractor shall immediately notify the
contracting agency.
8. Reasonable Accommodation for Applicants /
Employees with Disabilities: The contractor must be familiar
with the requirements for and comply with the Americans with
Disabilities Act and all rules and regulations established there
under. Employers must provide reasonable accommodation in
all employment activities unless to do so would cause an
undue hardship.
9. Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials
and Leasing of Equipment: The contractor shall not
discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex,
national origin, age or disability in the selection and retention
of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and
leases of equipment. The contractor shall take all necessary
and reasonable steps to ensure nondiscrimination in the
administration of this contract.
a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors and
suppliers and lessors of their EEO obligations under this
contract.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to ensure
subcontractor compliance with their EEO obligations.
10. Assurance Required by 49 CFR 26.13(b):
a. The requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 and the State
DOT's U.S. DOT -approved DBE program are incorporated by
reference.
b. The contractor or subcontractor shall not discriminate on
the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the
performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out
applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in the award and
administration of DOT -assisted contracts. Failure by the
contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach
of this contract, which may result in the termination of this
contract or such other remedy as the contracting agency
deems appropriate.
11. Records and Reports: The contractor shall keep such
records as necessary to document compliance with the EEO
requirements. Such records shall be retained for a period of
three years following the date of the final payment to the
contractor for all contract work and shall be available at
reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized
representatives of the contracting agency and the FHWA.
a. The records kept by the contractor shall document the
following:
(1) The number and work hours of minority and non -
minority group members and women employed in each work
classification on the project;
(2) The progress and efforts being made in cooperation
with unions, when applicable, to increase employment
opportunities for minorities and women; and
(3) The progress and efforts being made in locating, hiring,
training, qualifying, and upgrading minorities and women;
b. The contractors and subcontractors will submit an annual
report to the contracting agency each July for the duration of
the project, indicating the number of minority, women, and
non -minority group employees currently engaged in each work
classification required by the contract work. This information is
to be reported on Form FHWA-1391. The staffing data should
represent the project work force on board in all or any part of
the last payroll period preceding the end of July. If on-the-job
training is being required by special provision, the contractor
will be required to collect and report training data. The
employment data should reflect the work force on board during
all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of
July.
III��[�P►�9xr] 7xHe����lyeC�31���1��
This provision is applicable to all Federal -aid construction
contracts and to all related construction subcontracts of
$10,000 or more.
The contractor must ensure that facilities provided for
employees are provided in such a manner that segregation on
the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin cannot
result. The contractor may neither require such segregated
use by written or oral policies nor tolerate such use by
employee custom. The contractor's obligation extends further
to ensure that its employees are not assigned to perform their
services at any location, under the contractor's control, where
the facilities are segregated. The term "facilities" includes
waiting rooms, work areas, restaurants and other eating areas,
time clocks, restrooms, washrooms, locker rooms, and other
storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains,
recreation or entertainment areas, transportation, and housing
provided for employees. The contractor shall provide separate
or single -user restrooms and necessary dressing or sleeping
areas to assure privacy between sexes.
NAall 7=Iwill 9=II1i\ia9:1Y6\UN[OPK
This section is applicable to all Federal -aid construction
projects exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts and
lower -tier subcontracts (regardless of subcontract size). The
requirements apply to all projects located within the right-of-
way of a roadway that is functionally classified as Federal -aid
highway. This excludes roadways functionally classified as
local roads or rural minor collectors, which are exempt.
Contracting agencies may elect to apply these requirements to
other projects.
The following provisions are from the U.S. Department of
Labor regulations in 29 CFR 5.5 "Contract provisions and
related matters" with minor revisions to conform to the FHWA-
1273 format and FHWA program requirements.
1. Minimum wages
a. All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon
the site of the work, will be paid unconditionally and not less
often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or
rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as are
permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor
under the Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount of
wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents
thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less
than those contained in the wage determination of the
Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part
hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may
be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers
and mechanics.
Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona
fide fringe benefits under section 1(b)(2) of the Davis -Bacon
Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages
paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions
of paragraph 1.d. of this section; also, regular contributions
made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not
less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs
which cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to be
constructively made or incurred during such weekly period.
Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate
wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage determination for
the classification of work actually performed, without regard to
skill, except as provided in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(4). Laborers or
mechanics performing work in more than one classification
may be compensated at the rate specified for each
classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided,
That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the
time spent in each classification in which work is performed.
The wage determination (including any additional classification
and wage rates conformed under paragraph 1.b. of this
section) and the Davis -Bacon poster (WH -1321) shall be
posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at
the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where
it can be easily seen by the workers.
b. (1) The contracting officer shall require that any class of
laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in
the wage determination and which is to be employed under the
contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage
determination. The contracting officer shall approve an
additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits
therefore only when the following criteria have been met:
(i) The work to be performed by the classification
requested is not performed by a classification in the wage
determination: and
(ii) The classification is utilized in the area by the
construction industry; and
(iii) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide
fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the
wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(2) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be
employed in the classification (if known), or their
representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the
classification and wage rate (including the amount
designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of
the action taken shall be sent by the contracting officer to the
Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment
Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor,
Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every
additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and
so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting
officer within the 30 -day period that additional time is
necessary.
(3) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics
to be employed in the classification or their representatives,
and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed
classification and wage rate (including the amount
designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the
contracting officer shall refer the questions, including the
views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the
contracting officer, to the Wage and Hour Administrator for
determination. The Wage and Hour Administrator, or an
authorized representative, will issue a determination within
30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or
will notify the contracting officer within the 30 -day period that
additional time is necessary.
(4) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where
appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraphs 1.b.(2) or
1.b.(3) of this section, shall be paid to all workers performing
work in the classification under this contract from the first
day on which work is performed in the classification.
c. Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the
contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe
benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor
shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination
or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash
equivalent thereof.
d. If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or
other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the
wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs
reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits
under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of
Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor,
that the applicable standards of the Davis -Bacon Act have
been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor
to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of
obligations under the plan or program.
2. Withholding
The contracting agency shall upon its own action or upon
written request of an authorized representative of the
Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from
the contractor under this contract, or any other Federal
contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally -
assisted contract subject to Davis -Bacon prevailing wage
requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor, so
much of the accrued payments or advances as may be
considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics,
including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the
contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages
required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any
laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or
helper, employed or working on the site of the work, all or part
of the wages required by the contract, the contracting agency
may, after written notice to the contractor, take such action as
may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further
payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations
have ceased.
3. Payrolls and basic records
a. Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be
maintained by the contractor during the course of the work and
preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers
and mechanics working at the site of the work. Such records
shall contain the name, address, and social security number of
each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates
of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs
anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents
thereof of the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the
Davis -Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked,
deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the
Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that
the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of
any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a
plan or program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis -
Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show
that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable,
that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the
plan or program has been communicated in writing to the
laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the
costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such
benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under
approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the
registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of
trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and
trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the
applicable programs.
b.(1) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in
which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to
the contracting agency. The payrolls submitted shall set out
accurately and completely all of the information required to be
maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i), except that full social
security numbers and home addresses shall not be included
on weekly transmittals. Instead the payrolls shall only need to
include an individually identifying number for each employee
e.g. , the last four digits of the employee's social security
number). The required weekly payroll information may be
submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH -347 is
available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division
Web site at http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh347instr.htm
or its successor site. The prime contractor is responsible for
the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors.
Contractors and subcontractors shall maintain the full social
security number and current address of each covered worker,
and shall provide them upon request to the contracting agency
for transmission to the State DOT, the FHWA or the Wage and
Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an
investigation or audit of compliance with prevailing wage
requirements. It is not a violation of this section for a prime
contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and
social security numbers to the prime contractor for its own
records, without weekly submission to the contracting agency..
(2) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a
"Statement of Compliance," signed by the contractor or
subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the
payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall
certify the following:
(i) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the
information required to be provided under §5.5 (a)(3)(ii) of
Regulations, 29 CFR part 5, the appropriate information is
being maintained under §5.5 (a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29
CFR part 5, and that such information is correct and
complete;
(ii) That each laborer or mechanic (including each
helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract
during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly
wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly,
and that no deductions have been made either directly or
indirectly from the full wages earned, other than
permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations, 29 CFR
part 3;
(iii) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not
less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or
cash equivalents for the classification of work performed,
as specified in the applicable wage determination
incorporated into the contract.
(3) The weekly submission of a properly executed
certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form
WH -347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the
"Statement of Compliance" required by paragraph 3.b.(2) of
this section.
(4) The falsification of any of the above certifications may
subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal
prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of
title 31 of the United States Code.
c. The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records
required under paragraph 3.a. of this section available for
inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized
representatives of the contracting agency, the State DOT, the
FHWA, or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such
representatives to interview employees during working hours
on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the
required records or to make them available, the FHWA may,
after written notice to the contractor, the contracting agency or
the State DOT, take such action as may be necessary to
cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or
guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required
records upon request or to make such records available may
be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.
4. Apprentices and trainees
a. Apprentices (programs of the USDOL).
Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the
predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are
employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide
apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of
Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of
Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with
a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or if a
person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary
employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship
program, who is not individually registered in the program, but
who has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship
Training, Employer and Labor Services or a State
Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for
probationary employment as an apprentice.
The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job
site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio
permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under
the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an
apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise
employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed. In addition, any
apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the
ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not
less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination
for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is
performing construction on a project in a locality other than
that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage
rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly
rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered
program shall be observed.
Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate
specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of
progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly
rate specified in the applicable wage determination.
Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with
the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the
apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits,
apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits
listed on the wage determination for the applicable
classification. If the Administrator determines that a different
practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification,
fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination.
In the event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer
and Labor Services, or a State Apprenticeship Agency
recognized by the Office, withdraws approval of an
apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be
permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable
predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable
program is approved.
b. Trainees (programs of the USDOL).
Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be
permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the
work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and
individually registered in a program which has received prior
approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration.
The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be
greater than permitted under the plan approved by the
Employment and Training Administration.
Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified
in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress,
expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate
specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall
be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the
trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention
fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe
benefits listed on the wage determination unless the
Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that
there is an apprenticeship program associated with the
corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage
determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits
for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee
rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan
approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall
be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the classification of work actually performed.
In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in
excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program
shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the
wage determination for the work actually performed.
In the event the Employment and Training Administration
withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no
longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the
applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an
acceptable program is approved.
c. Equal employment opportunity. The utilization of
apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall be
in conformity with the equal employment opportunity
requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29
CFR part 30.
d. Apprentices and Trainees (programs of the U.S. DOT).
Apprentices and trainees working under apprenticeship and
skill training programs which have been certified by the
Secretary of Transportation as promoting EEO in connection
with Federal -aid highway construction programs are not
subject to the requirements of paragraph 4 of this Section IV.
The straight time hourly wage rates for apprentices and
trainees under such programs will be established by the
particular programs. The ratio of apprentices and trainees to
journeymen shall not be greater than permitted by the terms of
the particular program.
5. Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The
contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part
3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.
6. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert
Form FHWA-1273 in any subcontracts and also require the
subcontractors to include Form FHWA-1273 in any lower tier
subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for the
compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor
with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5.
7. Contract termination: debarment. A breach of the
contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination
of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a
subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
8. Compliance with Davis -Bacon and Related Act
requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the Davis -
Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5
are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.
9. Disputes concerning labor standards. Disputes arising
out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not
be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such
disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures
of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and
7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes
between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the
contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the
employees or their representatives.
10. Certification of eligibility.

neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an
interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to
be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of
the Davis -Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).
b. No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person
or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue
of section 3(a) of the Davis -Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).
c. The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the
U.S. Criminal Code, 18 U.S.C. 1001.
V. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY
STANDARDS ACT
The following clauses apply to any Federal -aid construction
contract in an amount in excess of $100,000 and subject to the
overtime provisions of the Contract Work Hours and Safety
Standards Act. These clauses shall be inserted in addition to
the clauses required by 29 CFR 5.5(a) or 29 CFR 4.6. As
used in this paragraph, the terms laborers and mechanics
include watchmen and guards.
1. Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor
contracting for any part of the contract work which may require
or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall
require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any
workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to
work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such
laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less

worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
2. Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated
damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth
in paragraph (1.) of this section, the contractor and any
subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the
unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor
shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done
under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such
District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such
liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each
individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and
guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in
paragraph (1.) of this section, in the sum of $10 for each
calendar day on which such individual was required or
permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty
hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the
clause set forth in paragraph (1.) of this section.
3. Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages.
The FHWA or the contacting agency shall upon its own action
or upon written request of an authorized representative of the
Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from
any moneys payable on account of work performed by the
contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any
other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any
other federally -assisted contract subject to the Contract Work
Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same
prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be
necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or
subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as
provided in the clause set forth in paragraph (2.) of this
section.
4. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert
in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraph (1.)
through (4.) of this section and also a clause requiring the
subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier
subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for
compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor
with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (1.) through (4.) of this
section.
VI. SUBLETTING OR ASSIGNING THE CONTRACT
This provision is applicable to all Federal -aid construction
contracts on the National Highway System.
1. The contractor shall perform with its own organization
contract work amounting to not less than 30 percent (or a
greater percentage if specified elsewhere in the contract) of
the total original contract price, excluding any specialty items
designated by the contracting agency. Specialty items may be
performed by subcontract and the amount of any such
specialty items performed may be deducted from the total
original contract price before computing the amount of work
required to be performed by the contractor's own organization
(23 CFR 635.116).
a. The term "perform work with its own organization" refers
to workers employed or leased by the prime contractor, and
equipment owned or rented by the prime contractor, with or
without operators. Such term does not include employees or
equipment of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor,
agents of the prime contractor, or any other assignees. The
term may include payments for the costs of hiring leased
employees from an employee leasing firm meeting all relevant
Federal and State regulatory requirements. Leased
employees may only be included in this term if the prime
contractor meets all of the following conditions:
(1) the prime contractor maintains control over the
supervision of the day-to-day activities of the leased
employees;
(2) the prime contractor remains responsible for the quality
of the work of the leased employees;
(3) the prime contractor retains all power to accept or
exclude individual employees from work on the project; and
(4) the prime contractor remains ultimately responsible for
the payment of predetermined minimum wages, the
submission of payrolls, statements of compliance and all
other Federal regulatory requirements.
b. "Specialty Items" shall be construed to be limited to work
that requires highly specialized knowledge, abilities, or
equipment not ordinarily available in the type of contracting
organizations qualified and expected to bid or propose on the
contract as a whole and in general are to be limited to minor
components of the overall contract.
2. The contract amount upon which the requirements set forth
in paragraph (1) of Section VI is computed includes the cost of
material and manufactured products which are to be
purchased or produced by the contractor under the contract
provisions.
3. The contractor shall furnish (a) a competent superintendent
or supervisor who is employed by the firm, has full authority to
direct performance of the work in accordance with the contract
requirements, and is in charge of all construction operations
(regardless of who performs the work) and (b) such other of its
own organizational resources (supervision, management, and
engineering services) as the contracting officer determines is
necessary to assure the performance of the contract.
4. No portion of the contract shall be sublet, assigned or
otherwise disposed of except with the written consent of the
contracting officer, or authorized representative, and such
consent when given shall not be construed to relieve the
contractor of any responsibility for the fulfillment of the
contract. Written consent will be given only after the
contracting agency has assured that each subcontract is
evidenced in writing and that it contains all pertinent provisions
and requirements of the prime contract.
5. The 30% self -performance requirement of paragraph (1) is
not applicable to design -build contracts; however, contracting
agencies may establish their own self -performance
requirements.
VII. SAFETY: ACCIDENT PREVENTION
T h i s p r o v i s i o n i s applicable to all Federal -aid
construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.
1. In the performance of this contract the contractor shall
comply with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws
governing safety, health, and sanitation (23 CFR 635). The
contractor shall provide all safeguards, safety devices and
protective equipment and take any other needed actions as it
determines, or as the contracting officer may determine, to be
reasonably necessary to protect the life and health of
employees on the job and the safety of the public and to
protect property in connection with the performance of the
work covered by the contract.
2. It is a condition of this contract, and shall be made a
condition of each subcontract, which the contractor enters into
pursuant to this contract, that the contractor and any
subcontractor shall not permit any employee, in performance
of the contract, to work in surroundings or under conditions
which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous to his/her
health or safety, as determined under construction safety and
health standards (29 CFR 1926) promulgated by the Secretary
of Labor, in accordance with Section 107 of the Contract Work
Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3704).
3. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1926.3, it is a condition of this contract
that the Secretary of Labor or authorized representative
thereof, shall have right of entry to any site of contract
performance to inspect or investigate the matter of compliance
with the construction safety and health standards and to carry
out the duties of the Secretary under Section 107 of the
Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40
U.S.C.3704).
VIII. FALSE STATEMENTS CONCERNING HIGHWAY
PROJECTS
T h i s p r o v i s i o n i s applicable to all Federal -aid
construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.
In order to assure high quality and durable construction in
conformity with approved plans and specifications and a high
degree of reliability on statements and representations made
by engineers, contractors, suppliers, and workers on Federal -
aid highway projects, it is essential that all persons concerned
with the project perform their functions as carefully, thoroughly,
and honestly as possible. Willful falsification, distortion, or
misrepresentation with respect to any facts related to the
project is a violation of Federal law. To prevent any
misunderstanding regarding the seriousness of these and
similar acts, Form FHWA-1022 shall be posted on each
Federal -aid highway project (23 CFR 635) in one or more
places where it is readily available to all persons concerned
with the project:
18 U.S.C. 1020 reads as follows:
"Whoever, being an officer, agent, or employee of the United
States, or of any State or Territory, or whoever, whether a
person, association, firm, or corporation, knowingly makes any
false statement, false representation, or false report as to the
character, quality, quantity, or cost of the material used or to
be used, or the quantity or quality of the work performed or to
be performed, or the cost thereof in connection with the
submission of plans, maps, specifications, contracts, or costs
of construction on any highway or related project submitted for
approval to the Secretary of Transportation; or
Whoever knowingly makes any false statement, false
representation, false report or false claim with respect to the
character, quality, quantity, or cost of any work performed or to
be performed, or materials furnished or to be furnished, in
connection with the construction of any highway or related
project approved by the Secretary of Transportation; or
Whoever knowingly makes any false statement or false
representation as to material fact in any statement, certificate,
or report submitted pursuant to provisions of the Federal -aid
Roads Act approved July 1, 1916, (39 Stat. 355), as amended
and supplemented;
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 5
years or both."
