SPECIAL PROVISION
INDIAN PREFERENCE IN EMPLOYMENT ON FEDERAL-AID HIGHWAY
PROJECTS ON AND NEAR INDIAN RESERVATIONS
April 22, 2004
PURPOSE
The purpose of this special provision is to outline the "Tribal Employment Rights Office
(TERO) Indian Preference in Employment" requirements and procedures to be followed by
The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, the Oregon Department of
Transportation, and all Contractors or subcontractors engaged in highway construction
work that is under contract with the Oregon Department of Transportation on federal-aid
highway projects that are located on and near the Umatilla Indian Reservation.
BACKGROUND
The United States Code (USC), Title 23, Section 140 was amended by the 1987
reauthorization of the Surface Transportation Assistance Act by adding paragraph (d)
"Indian Employment and Contracting" concerning preferential employment of Indians living
on or near a reservation on federal-aid projects and contracts on Indian reservation roads.
It was further amended by Section 1026 of the Intermodel Surface Transportation Efficiency
Act of 1991 (ISTEA) to include "States may implement a preference for employment of
Indians on projects carried out under this title near Indian reservations." (As defined in the
Tribal Employment Rights Office Code, Chapter I, Section E., the term “Indian” means “any
person enrolled in a federally recognized tribe and recognized by the United States
pursuant to its trust responsibility to American Indians”.
AUTHORITY
The Oregon Department of Transportation (State) acknowledges the inherent sovereign
authority of The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation to promulgate and
enforce the TERO Code within the boundaries of the Umatilla Indian Reservation and
acknowledges Title 23, Section 140(d) of the USC.
The current TERO Code of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation and
its compliance requirements and procedures are incorporated herein and made part of this
special provision.
APPLICABILITY
Eligible projects for Indian Employment preference consideration under this special
provision are those projects which are on roads termed "Indian Reservation Road"
according to USC Title 23, Section 101(d)(12) and on roads near the boundaries of
reservations and other Indian lands. Roads "near" The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla
Indian Reservation (Tribes) are those within 60 miles of the diminished reservation
boundaries.
Indian Preference in Employment Page 1
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES
All Indians are eligible for Indian preference without regard to tribal affiliation or place of
enrollment. However, recruiting efforts will be targeted toward those living on or near the
Umatilla Indian Reservation.
Employers with collective bargaining agreements with a union are responsible for informing
such unions of this requirement.
INDIAN PREFERENCE GOAL
The Indian Employment Preference goal is indicated in the project Special Provisions.
Classifications for Indian Preference goal consideration are:
Carpenter
Laborer
Equipment Operator
Cement Masons
Truck Drivers
Electricians
Ironworkers
Classification shall be according to requirements for certified payrolls.
Goals will apply to total project work hours and will not be applied individually to the
Contractor and subcontractors. Goals do not apply to number of persons employed at any
given period of time.
These Indian employment goals are for the Contractor's work force who are other than core
crew members. A Contractor's core crew is composed of full-time employed individuals
necessary to satisfy his/her reasonable needs for supervisory or special experienced
personnel to assure an efficient execution of the contract work. Indian employees of the
Contractor shall be included in the core crew, regardless of job function, to avoid the
unintended results of having a Contractor lay-off or terminate an Indian employee to hire
another under this provision.
In setting these employment goals, consideration has been given to the availability of skilled
and unskilled Indian workers, the type of work to be performed, the Contractor's
employment requirements, the need for new hires, and unemployment rates prevailing
among non-Indians. Consideration has also been given to the employment goals for
minorities and women established for the area by the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of
Federal Contract Compliance Programs pursuant to Chapter 41, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 60.4.
These goals may only be changed by the Oregon Department of Transportation after
consultation with the Tribes and the Contractor, and after consideration of the good faith
efforts of the Contractor together with the ability of the Tribes to refer workers in numbers
and in time for the Contractor to meet the goals and to perform the work.
Indian Preference in Employment Page 2
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
If the Tribes are unable to provide sufficient qualified or qualifiable applicants to meet the
employment goal within 48 hours of the placement of a job order by the Contractor, the
Contractor, ensuring nondiscrimination and providing equal employment opportunity, may
recruit from other sources off the Umatilla Indian Reservation. The Contractor shall give full
consideration to all qualified job applicants referred by the Tribes. The Contractor is not
required to employ any applicant who, in the Contractor's opinion, is not qualified to perform
the classification of work required.
FRINGE BENEFITS
All fringe benefits for Indian workers referred by the Tribal Employment Rights Office shall
be paid in cash. Indian workers who are union members will have the option of fringe
benefits in cash or paid into a bonafide plan or program. However, this does not change
any agreements between Indian union members and their respective unions.
PRECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE
The preconstruction conference will be the forum for finalizing all compliance agreements
and requirements between the Tribes and the Contractor and subcontractor(s) and to
answer any questions regarding Indian Preference and applicable special provisions.
MANDATORY TERO WORKSHOP
The Tribal Employment Rights Office of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian
Reservation agrees to conduct mandatory prebid quarterly TERO/MOU workshops, and
shall issue certificates of completion to those Contractors who sign in, attend, and
participate. Contractors must have a certificate in order to be eligible to bid on ODOT
Contracts that require compliance with these TERO/MOU requirements. The certificate will
be good for 2 years with an updated renewal every biennium.
COMPLIANCE
The State will follow normal contract compliance procedures to effect compliance. The
State may elect to invite the Tribes to assist their monitoring efforts in all or any part of its
compliance process. The State will review the Contractor's employment practices and take
appropriate enforcement actions when the goal is not reached after consideration of good
faith efforts. See the "ON-SITE WORK FORCE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION REQUIREMENTS
FOR WOMEN AND MINORITIES SPECIAL PROVISIONS" or contact the Tribal
Employment Rights Office for sanctions that may be imposed for failure to meet these
goals.
COMPLIANCE FEE
A compliance fee will be charged to the contractor. The compliance fee is indicated in the
project Special Provisions.

executed under this Code.
SECTION B. COMPLIANCE AGREEMENT
1. Each employer shall be required to meet with the Program Manager at the TERO office
and negotiate and execute a "Compliance Agreement" which sets forth:
(a) The minimum number of Indians the employer shall hire during any year that the
employer is located or engaged in work on the reservation; numerical goals and
timetables for each craft, skill area, job classification, etc., used by the employer
including, but not limited to: general labor, skilled, administrative, supervisory,
and professional categories;
(b) Wage scale provisions and salary compensation terms;
(c) The reporting requirements the employer shall provide the Program Manager on
issues, including but not limited to: the frequency of reports, the number of
Indians employed, a record of persons hired, fired or promoted during the
reporting period, and an assessment of how close the employer is to meeting
the hiring goals set forth in the Compliance Agreement.
2. The numerical goals set forth in the Compliance Agreement shall be based upon
surveys of the available Indian work force and of projected employment opportunities on
the reservation.
3. Compliance Agreements shall be reviewed annually and revised as necessary to reflect
changes in the number of Indians available or changes in employer hiring plans.
4. No employer who intends to engage in temporary business on the reservation shall
commence work on the reservation until a Compliance Agreement has been negotiated
and signed by both the Program Manager and the employer representative. An
employer who has established a permanent place of business on the reservation shall
negotiate and execute a Compliance Agreement within 30
TRIBAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS OFFICE CODE PAGE 4
STATUTES of the CONFEDERATED TRIBES of the UMATILLA INDIAN RESERVATION
JULY 1999 COMPILATION
days from the date the employer receives notification from the Program Manager that a
Compliance Agreement is required.
5. Any violation of an executed Compliance Agreement shall be a violation of this Code.
6. When the TERO Office is closed and an Indian worker is unable to continue working,
emergency hires will be allowed, but such hires will be hired for 3 days only.
SECTION C. JOB QUALIFICATIONS AND PERSONNEL REQUIREMENTS
An employer shall not use qualification criteria or other personnel requirements that serve as
barriers to Indian employment unless the employer is able to demonstrate that such criteria or
requirements are required by business necessity. EEOC Guidelines shall be adopted on these
matters to the extent that they are appropriate. The Program manager shall be guided by the
guidelines but shall have the authority to impose additional requirements that are necessary in
order to address employment barriers that are unique to Indians.
SECTION D. TRIBAL HIRING HALL
1. The Program Manager shall establish and maintain a hiring hall to assist employers in
placing qualified Indians in job positions.
2. An employer shall not hire a non-Indian in violation of the Compliance Agreement until
the Program manager has certified within a reasonable time that no qualified Indian is
available to fill the vacancy. For purposes of this section, "reasonable time" shall be
defined as follows:
(a) Construction jobs - the Program manager shall have 48 hours from time of
notice of manpower needs, to locate and refer a qualified Indian;
(b) All other employment - the Program manager shall have 5 working days to
locate and refer a qualified Indian.
The Program Manager may grant a waiver of a time period upon a showing by the
employer that such time period imposes an undue burden upon the employer or his
business.
SECTION E. TRAINING
1. The Program Manager shall identify training programs necessary in order to increase
the pool of qualified Indians for employment on the reservation.
2. The Program Manager may initiate and sponsor training programs for employers to
participate in, or the Program Manager may work with employers to establish and
sponsor their own training programs to assist Indians to become qualified in the various
job classifications used by employers.
3. The ratio of Indian trainees to fully qualified workers shall be negotiated as part of the
Compliance Agreement. For construction projects, the number of Indian trainees shall
be no less than the minimum ratio established by the Department of Labor.
SECTION F. UNIONS
Employers with collective bargaining agreements with a union are responsible for informing
such unions of this Code and TERO rules and regulations. Unions will give absolute preference
to Indians in job referrals regardless of which referral list they are on. Temporary
TRIBAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS OFFICE CODE PAGE 5
STATUTES of the CONFEDERATED TRIBES of the UMATILLA INDIAN RESERVATION
JULY 1999 COMPILATION
Work Permits will be granted Indians who do not wish to join a union. Nothing herein shall
constitute official tribal recognition of any union or tribal endorsement of any union activities on
the Umatilla Indian Reservation.
SECTION G. CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS
The Indian Preference requirements contained herein shall apply to all contractors and
subcontractors of an employer. The employer shall have the initial and primary responsibility for
ensuring that all contractors and subcontractors comply with these requirements and both the
employer and his contractors and subcontractors shall be subject to the penalties set forth
herein for failure to comply with the Code requirements.
SECTION H. PREFERENCE IN CONTRACTING AND SUBCONTRACTING
Each employer shall give preference to tribal-owned or Indian owned businesses in the award
of contracts or subcontracts, subject to federal laws. The Program Manager shall maintain a list
of tribal-owned and Indian-owned businesses which shall be supplied to the employers upon
request. Indian owned business shall be certified by the Tribe.
SECTION I. LAYOFFS
In all layoffs and reductions in force, no Indian worker shall be terminated if a non-Indian worker
in the same job classification is still employed. The non-Indian shall be terminated first if the
Indian possesses threshold qualifications for the job classification. If an employee lays off
workers by crews, all qualified Indian workers shall be transferred to crews to be retained so
long as non-Indians in the same job classification are employed elsewhere on the job site.
Exceptions may be non-Indians hired as "Core Crew", according to negotiated Compliance
Agreements.
SECTION J. PROMOTION
Each employer shall give Indians preferential consideration for all promotion opportunities and
shall encourage Indians to seek such opportunities. For each promotion or supervisory position
filled by a non-Indian, the employer shall file a report with the Program Manager stating what
efforts were made to inform Indian workers about the position, what Indians, if any, applied for
the position and if an Indian was not chosen, the reasons therefore.
SECTION K. COMPLIANCE FEES
The Program manager shall assess and collect a Compliance Fee based upon the following
schedule:
1. Every employer with a contract in the sum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or more
shall pay a fee of 21/2% of the total amount of the contract. Such fee shall be paid by
the employer prior to commencing work on the Umatilla Indian Reservation.
2. Each employer with gross sales of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or more shall pay an
annual fee of 21/2% of the annual payroll of the employer. Such fee shall be paid
quarterly on the 10th day following the end of each calendar quarter.
3. Compliance Fees shall be used for TERO operating budget and the percentage shall be
adjusted annually to remain consistent with the national average. The Compliance Fees
program shall go through the Tribes' Annual Budget Process.
4. The amount of Compliance Fee shall be at 1 % until December 31, 1996. Effective
January 1, 1997 the amount shall be assessed at 21/2 for all applicable contractors and
subcontractors.
TRIBAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS OFFICE CODE PAGE 6
STATUTES of the CONFEDERATED TRIBES of the UMATILLA INDIAN RESERVATION
JULY 1999 COMPILATION
The Compliance Fee shall only be assessed against those employers who engage in contract
work or establish their business on the reservation after the enactment of this Code. This fee
shall not be assessed or collected from religious and non-profit employers. The Compliance
Fees shall be available to meet the operating costs of the TERO. The Program Manager shall
receive a copy of each Compliance Fee payment. The Program Manager shall be responsible
for collecting the fees and may establish such regulations as are necessary to insure a fair and
timely fee collection process. Projects beginning off and ending on, or beginning on and ending
off the reservation will be considered one hundred percent on-reservation, thus subject to the
full Compliance Fee. However, if fifty percent (50%) or more of the work is off-reservation, the
Program Manager is authorized to negotiate an appropriate Compliance Fee.
SECTION L. ON SITE INSPECTIONS
The Program Manager shall have the authority to make on-site inspections during regular
working hours in order to monitor an employer's adherence to the terms of this Code and the
employer's Compliance Agreement. The Program Manager shall have the right to inspect and
copy all relevant records of an employer, of any signatory union or subcontractor of an
employer, and shall have the right to speak to workers and to conduct an investigation on the
job site. All information collected by the Program Manager shall be kept confidential unless
disclosure is necessary or ordered as part of any federal or tribal judicial or administrative
proceeding.
CHAPTER IV. VIOLATION PROCEDURES
SECTION A. INVESTIGATION BY THE PROGRAM MANAGER
Whenever a violation of this Code or an Agreement negotiated hereunder has been alleged and
is brought to the attention of the Program Manager, the Compliance Officer shall initiate and
complete a prompt and thorough investigation of the alleged violation. The Program Manager or
Compliance Officer shall seek to achieve an informal settlement of the alleged violation, with a
written report of findings provided to the Commission.
SECTION B. ISSUANCE OF CITATION
1. If the Program Manager determines that a violation of the Code or an Agreement
negotiated hereunder exists, and an informal settlement cannot be achieved, the
Program Manager shall issue a warning to the employer. This warning shall specify the
nature of the violation and direct that the violation be corrected within three (3) days or
sooner where warranted.
2. If the violation is not corrected within the time specified, the Program Manager shall
issue a citation to the employer which shall:
(a) Be in writing and in the name of the Confederated Tribes;

JULY 1999 COMPILATION
SECTION C. PROGRAM MANAGER HEARING
The employer shall be entitled to a hearing before the Program Manager no later than 10
working days after receipt of a Citation. Hearing procedures shall comply with the requirements
of due process, but will not be bound by the formal rules of evidence. The employer shall be
entitled to present evidence and to call witnesses to demonstrate that the employer has
complied with the requirements of this Code or that the employer made a best effort to do so
and therefore should not be subject to sanctions. On the basis of evidence presented at the
hearing, and the information collected by the Office, the Program Manager shall determine
whether or not the employer complied with this Code. If the Program Manager determines that
the employer is out of compliance and has not made a best effort to comply, the Program
Manager shall impose one or more of the sanctions provided for in the Code, as appropriate,
and shall order the employer to take such corrective action as is necessary to remedy any harm
done to the Tribe or individual Indians by the employer's non-compliance. The Program
Manager shall send written notice to all parties within ten (10) days after its decision in the
matter.
SECTION D. EMERGENCY RELIEF
When the Program Manager determines that a violation has occurred that is of a critical nature
requiring immediate remedial action, the Program Manager may issue a citation without delay,
stating sanctions to be placed on an employer. An employer shall have the right to appeal to the
TERO Commission, any imposition of emergency sanctions on an employer by the Program
Manager. The TERO Commission shall schedule a hearing on any appeal of a decision by the
Program Manager granting emergency relief pursuant to this subsection within 7 working days.
SECTION E. APPEALS
Any person adversely affected by a decision of the Program Manager shall have the right to
appeal the decision to the TERO Commission in accordance with this Code.
SECTION F. INDIVIDUAL COMPLAINT PROCEDURE
1. Any Indian who believes that an employer has failed to comply with the Code, or who
believes that they have been discriminated against by an employer because they are
Indian, may file a complaint with the Office. The complainant shall be responsible for
providing the Office with evidence of the discriminatory practices. Upon receipt of a
complaint supported by sufficient evidence of discrimination against an Indian
complainant, the Office shall conduct an investigation of the charge and shall attempt to
achieve an informal settlement of the matter. If voluntary conciliation cannot be
achieved, the Program manager shall hold a hearing on the matter, shall make a
determination on the validity of the charge, and shall order such relief as is necessary to
make whole any Indian who is harmed by the employer's non-compliance or
discriminatory behavior. The decision shall be in writing and shall be sent to all parties.
2. In conducting the hearing, the Program Manager shall have the same powers, and shall
be bound by the same hearing requirements as provided in Sections (D) and (E) of this
Chapter.

TRIBAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS OFFICE CODE
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY AND EDITORIAL CHANGES
The Board of Trustees of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation enacted
the Tribal Employment Rights Office Ordinance in Resolution 78-53 (August 7, 1978).
The Board enacted a revised Tribal Employment Rights Office (TERO) Ordinance in Resolution
82-64 (September 20, 1982). The revised ordinance included a new, 14 page TERO Guidelines
document. The revised Tribal Employment Rights Ordinance was amended three times, as
follows: Resolution 84-21 (February 15, 1984), Resolution 88-07 (November 5, 1987), and
Resolution 89-32 (April 5, 1989).
The Board enacted the second revised Tribal Employment Rights Office Ordinance in
Resolution 90-51 (September 19, 1990). In enacting the second revised Tribal Employment
Rights Office Ordinance, the Board explicitly repealed all prior resolutions concerning the
TERO, with the sole exception of Resolution 89-17. As the second revised Tribal Employment
Rights Office Ordinance did not contain the TERO Guidelines, these were repealed by
Resolution 90-51.
The Board enacted the third revised Tribal Employment Rights Office Ordinance in Resolution
96-67 (July 31, 1996). It has not been amended.
In Resolution 83-78 (September 7, 1983), the Board approved an agreement between the
Confederated Tribes and the Four Basic Trade Unions on compliance with the Tribal
Employment Rights Ordinance and Guidelines. This agreement reportedly terminated at the end
of five years and was not renewed.
In Resolution 89-17 (January 25, 1989), the Board approved a Memorandum of Understanding
with the State of Oregon Department of Transportation that ensured compliance with the Tribal
Employment Rights Ordinance whenever the Department of Transportation contracted to
perform highway construction activities on the Umatilla Indian Reservation. In Resolution 94-13
(February 22, 1994), the Board approved a new Memorandum of Understanding with the State
of Oregon Department of Transportation which superceded the 1989 Memorandum of
Understanding. This Memorandum of Understanding ensures compliance with the Tribal
Employment Rights Ordinance whenever the Department of Transportation contracts to perform
highway construction activities on the Umatilla Indian Reservation or within 60 miles of the
Reservation.
A fourth revision of this code has been proposed but has not yet been enacted by the Board of
Trustees. If it is enacted, it will be included in the next edition of Statutes of the Confederated
Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation.
During preparation of this compilation, the following editorial changes were made to this code:
1. The name was changed from "Tribal Employment Rights Office Ordinance" to "Tribal
Employment Rights Office Code."

FEDERAL ON-THE-JOB / APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING SPECIAL PROVISIONS
This special provision for On-the-Job Training supersedes subparagraph 6e of the
supplemental required contract provisions entitled "Affirmative Action Requirements for
Women and Minorities" and is in implementation of 23 U.S.C. 140(a). All other provisions
apply.
Section A: On-the-Job Training (OJT) Policy Statement
The Contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that, without
discrimination, minorities and women have the opportunity to compete for and participate as
trainees or apprentices and to develop as journey-level workers in the type of trade or job
classification employed. Contractors may use either a Bureau of Labor & Industries (BOLI)
apprenticeship or training program, or develop their own On-the-Job Training (OJT)
program approved by Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA).
Section B: Affirmative Action Requirement
Training and upgrading minorities and women in highway construction trades is the primary
objective of these special provisions. This shall be accomplished by making systematic and
direct recruitment efforts through public and private sources that are likely to yield minorities
and women available for training on the work under this contract.
When filling these training positions, Contractors and subcontractors are encouraged to hire
women and minorities who have previously been approved to participate in the OJT
Program and have not yet completed their training, or who are currently registered in a
BOLI-approved apprenticeship or training program.
Whenever minorities or women are not placed in training positions, the Contractor shall
provide documented evidence of affirmative action recruitment efforts. ODOT will review
the Contractor’s recruitment efforts to determine whether the Contractor has satisfied the
Good Faith criteria specified in paragraph 6 of the supplemental required contract
provisions entitled "Affirmative Action Requirements for Women and Minorities."
Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union
with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, nor any agreement the
Contractor has with a joint apprenticeship and training committee, shall excuse the
Contractor’s obligations under these special provisions.
This training commitment is not intended, and shall not be used, to discriminate against any
applicant for training, whether members of a minority group or not.
Whenever trainees are terminated, the Contractor shall provide documented evidence to
the Project Manager that shows cause for the termination or voluntary separation.

Section C: Assigned On-the-Job Training Positions
ODOT has established an OJT/apprenticeship goal of 10% for all qualified crafts listed in
Section D expected to be employed on this project. The number of trainees shall be
distributed among the qualified work classifications on the basis of the contractor’s needs
and the availability of journeyman in the various classifications.
Section D: Training Requirements
The intent of these provisions is to provide real and meaningful training in the construction
crafts. Off-site training is permissible only when it is an integral part of an approved training
program and does not comprise a significant part of the overall training.
Apprenticeships and OJT are permissible in the following crafts: equipment operator,
carpenter, cement mason, ironworker, truck driver, electrician and laborer. Apprenticeships
and OJT are also permissible in lower level management positions such as office engineers
and estimators where the training is oriented toward construction applications.
Apprenticeships and OJT in classifications such as flagger, bookkeeper, clerk/typist or
secretary are not permissible.
The Contractor, not registered as a training agent with a Joint Apprenticeship and Training
Committee, may choose to adopt an existing ODOT training program to satisfy these
requirements. Adoption of an existing training program will ensure the trainee who has
completed 2000 hours of training is eligible for entry into the apprenticeship program. The
Contractor shall assist the trainee in applying for entry into an appropriate apprenticeship
program.
Estimate the total number of hours that each qualified craft works on the project to complete
it. Using the percent goal, establish the number of apprentice/trainee hours for each
qualified craft to the nearest one-half hour. For OJT, determine the number of positions
and select affirmative action candidates. Complete and submit Federal OJT/Apprenticeship
Program Form (ODOT Form 731-0502) at the pre-construction conference.
Maintain sufficient equipment and fully trained journey level workers at all times to train
apprentices or trainees in the work processes. A valid certification by an appropriate
apprenticeship committee that the Contractor is an approved training agent shall be prima
facie proof of compliance with this requirement. The ratio of apprentices to journey level
workers shall be in accordance with the accepted standards for the particular craft or
occupation. A contractor may request an exception to the apprenticeship training program
at the time of pre-construction conference. The ODOT Apprenticeship Exception Process
may be found at the following web site:
http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/CS/CIVILRIGHTS/forms.shtml
For OJT programs developed by the Contractor, specify the ratio of trainees to journey level
workers in the training program. Contractor OJT programs will be approved by ODOT and
FHWA.

Contractors and subcontractors on contracts of three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000)
and over must use apprenticeship programs approved and registered with the Oregon
Bureau of Labor and Industries or an in-house training program approved by ODOT and
FHWA to fulfill training requirements under these provisions. The Contractor shall retain
the responsibility for meeting the training requirements of these special provisions and shall
also ensure that these provisions apply to each subcontract to which training positions are
assigned.
Conduct training according to the training program submitted by the Contractor and
approved by the ODOT Office of Civil Rights and the FHWA. OJT programs for which the
Contractor has obtained approval of BOLI’s Oregon State Apprenticeship and Training
Council will be accepted under these provisions.
ODOT will track training activities provided by the Contractor to trainees working under an
approved training program. The Contractor shall provide ODOT with monthly progress

The equal opportunity clause (II Equal Opportunity Form PR-1273) is required to be
included in, and is part of, all nonexempt Federal and federally assisted construction
contracts and subcontracts in excess of $10,000.00.
STANDARD FEDERAL EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS (EXECUTIVE ORDER 11246)
1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area, described in the solicitation from
which this contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United
States Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority;
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security number used
on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:

2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the
work involving any construction trade, it shall physically include in each subcontract in
11-05 Affirmative Action Requirements (WDP Version) Page 3 of 9
excess of $10,000.00 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains
the applicable goals for minority and female participation and which is set forth in the
solicitation from which this contract resulted.
3. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in
paragraphs 6a through 6p of these specifications. The goals set forth in the solicitation from
which this contract resulted are expressed as percentages of the total hours of employment
and training of minorities and female utilization the Contractor should reasonably be able to
achieve in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area. Covered
construction contractors performing construction work in geographical areas where they do
not have a Federal or federally assisted construction contract shall apply the minority and
female goals established for the geographical area where the work is performed. The
Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress toward its goals in each craft
during the period specified.
4. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement nor the failure by a union
with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement to refer either minorities or
women shall excuse the Contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive
Order 11246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
5. In order for the non-working training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in
meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the Contractor
during the training period, and the Contractor must have made a commitment to employ the
apprentices and trainees at the completion of their training, subject to the availability of
employment opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs
approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.
6. The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment
opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance with these specifications shall
be based upon its effort to achieve maximum results from its actions. The Contractor shall
document these efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as
extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and
coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which the Contractor's employees are
assigned to work. The Contractor, where possible, will assign two or more women to
each construction project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen,
superintendents, and other on-site supervisory personnel are aware of and carry out the
Contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment, with specific attention
to minorities and female individuals working at such sites or in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources,
participate in ODOT workforce regional alliances, provide written notification to minority
and female recruitment sources and to community organizations when the Contractor or
its unions have employment opportunities available, and maintain a record of the
organizations' responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each
minority and female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union,
a recruitment source, or a community organization and of what action was taken with
respect to each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for
11-05 Affirmative Action Requirements (WDP Version) Page 4 of 9
referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the union or, if referred, not
employed by the Contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reason
therefore, along with whatever additional actions the Contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or unions with
which the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the
Contractor a minority person or woman sent by the Contractor, or when the Contractor
has other information that the union referral process has impeded the Contractor's
efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for
the area which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs
and apprenticeship and trainee programs to include the ODOT workforce regional
alliances or relevant to the Contractor's employment needs, especially those programs
funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The Contractor shall provide notice of
these programs to the sources compiled under 6b above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions
and training programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the Contractor in
meeting its EEO obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective
bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper, annual report, etc.;
by specific review of the policy with all management personnel and with all minority and
female employees at least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on
bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where construction work is
performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action
obligations under these specifications with all employees having any responsibility for
hiring, assignment, layoff, termination or other employment decisions including specific
review of these items with on-site supervisory personnel such as Superintendents,
General Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at any job site. A
written record shall be made and maintained identifying the time and place of these
meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject
manner.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in any advertising
in the news media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing
written notification to and discussing the Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors
and Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and
community organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority
and female recruitment and training organizations serving the Contractor's recruitment
area and employment needs. Not later than one month prior to the date for the
acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment
source, the Contractor shall send written notification to organizations such as the
above, describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the
selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons
and women and, where reasonable, provide after school, summer and vacation
11-05 Affirmative Action Requirements (WDP Version) Page 5 of 9
employment to minority and female youth both on the site and in other areas of a
Contractor's work force.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do
so under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
l. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of all minority and
female employees for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to
seek or to prepare for, through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments and other
personnel practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all
personnel and employment related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the
Contractor's obligations are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are non-segregated except that
separate or single-user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to
assure privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from
minority and female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of
solicitations to minority and female contractor associations and other business
associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and
performance under the Contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.
7. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in
fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations (6a through 6p). The efforts of a
contractor association, joint contractor union, contractor-community; or other similar group
of which the Contractor is a member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling any one
or more of its obligations under 6a through 6p of these Specifications provided that the
Contractor actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure that the group
has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and women in the industry, ensures
that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the Contractor's minority and
female work force participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and
timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates the effectiveness
of actions taken on behalf of the Contractor. The obligation to comply, however, is the
Contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the
Contractor's noncompliance.
8. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been
established. The Contractor, however, is required to provide equal employment opportunity
and to take affirmative action for all minority groups, both male and female, and all women,
both minority and non-minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially disparate manner (for
example, even though the Contractor has achieved its goals for women generally, the
Contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women
is underutilized).
11-05 Affirmative Action Requirements (WDP Version) Page 6 of 9
9. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action standards to
discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex or national origin.
10. The Contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm debarred
from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order 11246.
11. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these
specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination and
cancellation of existing subcontracts as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive
Order 11246, as amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs. Any Contractor who fails to carry out such sanctions and
penalties shall be in violation of these specifications and Executive Order 11246, as
amended.
12. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications, shall implement
specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in
paragraph 6 of these specifications, so as to achieve maximum results from its efforts to
ensure equal employment opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the
requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications,
the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
13. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment related
activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports
relating to the provisions hereof as may be required by the Government and to keep
records. Records shall at least include for each employee the name, address, telephone
numbers, construction trade, union affiliation if any, employee identification number when
assigned. social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice, trainee,
helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated
trade, rate of pay, and locations at which the work was performed. Records shall be
maintained in an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that
existing records satisfy this requirement, Contractors shall not be required to maintain
separate records.
14. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other
laws which establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of
requirements for the hiring of local or other area residents (e.g., those under the Public
Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community Development Block Grant Program).

FEDERAL ON-THE-JOB / APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING SPECIAL PROVISIONS
This special provision for On-the-Job Training supersedes subparagraph 6e of the
supplemental required contract provisions entitled "Affirmative Action Requirements for
Women and Minorities" and is in implementation of 23 U.S.C. 140(a). All other provisions
apply.
Section A: On-the-Job Training (OJT) Policy Statement
The Contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that, without
discrimination, minorities and women have the opportunity to compete for and participate as
trainees or apprentices and to develop as journey-level workers in the type of trade or job
classification employed. Contractors may use either a Bureau of Labor & Industries (BOLI)
apprenticeship or training program, or develop their own On-the-Job Training (OJT)
program approved by Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA).
Section B: Affirmative Action Requirement
Training and upgrading minorities and women in highway construction trades is the primary
objective of these special provisions. This shall be accomplished by making systematic and
direct recruitment efforts through public and private sources that are likely to yield minorities
and women available for training on the work under this contract.
When filling these training positions, Contractors and subcontractors are encouraged to hire
women and minorities who have previously been approved to participate in the OJT
Program and have not yet completed their training, or who are currently registered in a
BOLI-approved apprenticeship or training program.
Whenever minorities or women are not placed in training positions, the Contractor shall
provide documented evidence of affirmative action recruitment efforts. ODOT will review
the Contractor’s recruitment efforts to determine whether the Contractor has satisfied the
Good Faith criteria specified in paragraph 6 of the supplemental required contract
provisions entitled "Affirmative Action Requirements for Women and Minorities."

OJT / Apprenticeship (WDP Version) Page 1
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
ODOT has established an OJT/apprenticeship goal of 10 % for all qualified crafts listed in
Section D expected to be employed on this project. The number of trainees shall be
distributed among the qualified work classifications on the basis of the contractor’s needs
and the availability of journeyman in the various classifications.
Section D: Training Requirements
The intent of these provisions is to provide real and meaningful training in the construction
crafts. Off-site training is permissible only when it is an integral part of an approved training
program and does not comprise a significant part of the overall training.
Apprenticeships and OJT are permissible in the following crafts: equipment operator,
carpenter, cement mason, ironworker, truck driver, electrician and laborer. Apprenticeships
and OJT are also permissible in lower level management positions such as office engineers
and estimators where the training is oriented toward construction applications.
Apprenticeships and OJT in classifications such as flagger, bookkeeper, clerk/typist or
secretary are not permissible.
The Contractor, not registered as a training agent with a Joint Apprenticeship and Training
Committee, may choose to adopt an existing ODOT training program to satisfy these
requirements. Adoption of an existing training program will ensure the trainee who has
completed 2000 hours of training is eligible for entry into the apprenticeship program. The
Contractor shall assist the trainee in applying for entry into an appropriate apprenticeship
program.
Estimate the total number of hours that each qualified craft works on the project to complete
it. Using the percent goal, establish the number of apprentice/trainee hours for each
qualified craft to the nearest one-half hour. For OJT, determine the number of positions
and select affirmative action candidates. Complete and submit Federal OJT/Apprenticeship
Program Form (ODOT Form 731-0502) at the pre-construction conference.
Maintain sufficient equipment and fully trained journey level workers at all times to train
apprentices or trainees in the work processes. A valid certification by an appropriate
apprenticeship committee that the Contractor is an approved training agent shall be prima
facie proof of compliance with this requirement. The ratio of apprentices to journey level
workers shall be in accordance with the accepted standards for the particular craft or
occupation. A contractor may request an exception to the apprenticeship training program
at the time of pre-construction conference. The ODOT Apprenticeship Exception Process
may be found at the following web site:
http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/CS/CIVILRIGHTS/forms.shtml
For OJT programs developed by the Contractor, specify the ratio of trainees to journey level
workers in the training program. Contractor OJT programs will be approved by ODOT and
FHWA.
Contractors and subcontractors on contracts of three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000)
and over must use apprenticeship programs approved and registered with the Oregon
Bureau of Labor and Industries or an in-house training program approved by ODOT and
FHWA to fulfill training requirements under these provisions. The Contractor shall retain
the responsibility for meeting the training requirements of these special provisions and shall
OJT / Apprenticeship (WDP Version) Page 1
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
also ensure that these provisions apply to each subcontract to which training positions are
assigned.
Conduct training according to the training program submitted by the Contractor and
approved by the ODOT Office of Civil Rights and the FHWA. OJT programs for which the
Contractor has obtained approval of BOLI’s Oregon State Apprenticeship and Training
Council will be accepted under these provisions.
ODOT will track training activities provided by the Contractor to trainees working under an
approved training program. The Contractor shall provide ODOT with monthly progress
reports for all trainees working under an approved training program.
Trainees shall be paid at least 60% of the appropriate minimum journey level rate specified
in the contract for the first half of the training period, 75% for the third quarter of the training
period, and 90% for the last quarter of the training period. If apprentices are enrolled in a
BOLI-registered program, the appropriate rates approved by the Department of Labor or in
connection with the apprenticeship program shall apply to all trainees being trained for the
same classification who are covered by this special provision.
For OJT, each individual In-House Trainee Approval Program form shall be approved by
the ODOT Office of Civil Rights prior to beginning work in the craft in which the trainee will
be trained. The Contractor shall provide certification to the trainee and submit a copy to the
ODOT Office of Civil Rights upon completion of the training program.
Section E: Reports
Complete and submit, for each Contractor and each subcontractor with training or
apprenticeship programs, to the appropriate ODOT Project Manager the following reports:
At the pre-construction conference, the Federal OJT/Apprenticeship Program Formatted: Bullets and Numbering
(Form 731-0502) signed by the Contractor stating the types of training and number
of hours to be provided on the contract.
Prior to beginning work, an In-House Trainee Approval Request (Form 731-0503) Formatted: Bullets and Numbering
signed by the Contractor stating who will be trained, the estimated date the training
begins on the project, and the estimated number of hours of training for each person

All insurance shall be placed with insurance companies licensed to do business in the
States in which the work is to be performed, and with a current Best's Insurance Guide
Rating of A- and Class VII, or better. In all cases except Workers' Compensation and
Railroad Protective Liability coverage the certificate must specifically state that Union
Pacific Railroad Company IS AN ADDITIONAL INSURED.
Any coverage afforded Railway, the Certificate Holder, as an Additional Insured shall apply
as primary and not excess to any coverage issued in the name of Railway.
Such insurance shall be approved by the Railway before any work is performed on
Railway's Property and shall be carried until all work required to be performed on or
adjacent to Railway's Property under the terms of the contract is satisfactorily completed as
determined by ODOT, and thereafter until all tools, equipment and materials not belonging
to the Railway, have been removed from Railway's Property and Railway Property is left in
a clean and presentable condition. The insurance herein required shall be obtained by the
Contractor and Contractor shall furnish Railway with an original certificate of insurance,
signed by the insurance company, or its authorized representative, evidencing the issuance
of insurance coverage as prescribed in (a) 1through 13 above, plus the original Railroad
Protective Liability insurance policy to:
Judi Scott, Risk Management, Insurance Group, Room 820, 1416 Dodge St., Omaha,
NE 68719. (402) 271-2215
The certificate of insurance shall guarantee that the policies will not be amended, altered,
modified or canceled insofar as the coverage contemplated hereunder is concerned,
without at least 30 days notice mailed by registered mail to Railway.
Full compensation for all premiums which the Contractor is required to pay on all the
insurance described hereinafter shall be considered as included in the prices paid for the
various items of work to be performed under the Contract, and no additional allowance will
be made therefore or for additional premiums which may be required by extensions of the
policies of insurance.
It is further distinctly understood and agreed by the Contractor that its liability to the Railway
herein under Section 1 will not in any way be limited to or affected by the amount of
insurance obtained and carried by the Contractor in connection with said Contract.
The Railway File reference number and ODOT Project information shown at the top of this
Agreement, must appear on any original insurance policies or certificates of insurance sent
to Railway by the Contractor.
Section 3 - The Contractor will observe and comply with all the provisions, obligations and
limitations to be observed by Contractor which are contained in the CONTRACTOR
REQUIREMENTS (Exhibit C), and shall include, but not be limited to, payment of all costs
incurred for any damages to Railway roadbed, tracks, and/or appurtenances thereto,
resulting from use, occupancy, or presence of its employees, representatives, or agents or
subcontractors on or about the construction site.
Section 4 – Formatted: Normal
Union Pacific Railroad Company Page 13
(Exhibit C & C-1)
A) The Contractor will reimburse the Railroad additional costs incurred by the Railroad
including labor, equipment, and materials for unscheduled and extended scheduled
disruptions to railroad operations that occur because of the Contractor’s operation on The
Project; these additional costs are hereinafter called ‘Train Delay Costs’. The Railroad will
not seek reimbursement for any scheduled disruptions to railroad operations specified by
The Project.
Formatted: Justified
B) A “disruption” is a loss of use of one or more tracks, including delays and interruptions
that adversely impacts railroad operations. An “unscheduled disruption” is a disruption that
just happens and is not provided for in The Project without advanced planning/approval by
the Railroad. A “scheduled disruption” is a disruption with a specified timeframe that is
known will happen and is provided for in The Project with advanced planning/approval by
the Railroad. An “extended scheduled disruption” is a scheduled disruption that surpasses
the approved specified timeframe.
C) The Contractor shall plan, schedule, coordinate, and conduct all work that affects
railroad operations with the Railroad; contact person is Mike Leake, Manager of Track
Maintenance, 541-962-2235, to avoid or minimize the length of any disruption to railroad
operations. The Contractor shall receive approval from the Railroad prior to commencing
any work that will cause any scheduled disruption to railroad operations.
D) The Railroad is a transportation network in which unscheduled and extended scheduled
disruptions to local railroad operations can cause down-line delays and congestion of the
network, resulting in a total cost that may far exceed the costs incurred at the local area of
disruption. Down-line delays and congestion may continue for several days after the local
area of disruption is corrected before “normal” railroad operations of the network is
restored. The Railroad will run two specialized software packages, the Rail Traffic
Controller (RTC) and the Network Derailment Cost Calculator (NDCC), to calculate Train
Delay Costs for any unscheduled or extended scheduled disruption cause by The Project.
The Contractor will pay the higher of the two Train Delay Costs that are calculated, this cost
ranging as high as Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or more per day for a
catastrophic disruption that closes all tracks within an area. The Contractor will also pay a
separate fixed cost each time Train Delay Costs are calculated regardless of whether or not
the Contractor is charged Train Delay Costs by the Railroad; Ten Thousand Dollars
($10,000) for each twenty-four hour period defined for the RTC (includes two simulations of
with and without railroad disruption) and Six Thousand Dollars ($6,000) for each incident for
the NDCC.
a) RTC is a specialized rail network simulation tool produced by Berkeley Simulation
Software of Berkeley, California. Using very specific inputs (including track
configuration, grade, curvature, locomotive types, and train consists) this software
replicates the engineering vehicle dynamics within each involved train, as well as
the flow of train traffic over a pre-defined track network. The network includes both
tracks at the immediate disruption area, as well as the down-line areas where down-
line disruptions occur. These down-line areas could be several hundred miles from
the initial disruption point. The Railroad will set up two RTC simulations: the first with
the unscheduled or extended scheduled disruption in question and the second
without the unscheduled or extended scheduled disruption in question. Train Delay
Costs are the difference in costs between the two scenarios of the network
operation.
Union Pacific Railroad Company Page 14
(Exhibit C & C-1)
b) NDCC is a costing system using less specific inputs compared to RTC, assuming
combinations of typical traffic patterns and costs for trains affected by an
unscheduled or extended scheduled disruption. This system does not look at
specific train consists and Railroad customers that are affected by a particular
incident, but does include costs associated with detouring trains over other railroad
routes as a result of an unscheduled disruption.
E) Train Delay Costs will also include any unscheduled extended scheduled disruptions to
railroad operations caused by the Railroad or its contractors in performing any work on The
Project that is required because of unscheduled or extended scheduled disruptions to
railroad operations that occur because of the Contractor’s operation on The Project.
F) Contractor’s reimbursement of the Railroad for any Train Delay Costs shall not be
reimbursable by the State.
Contractor shall be responsible to Railway, including its affiliated railway companies, and its
tenants for all damages for any unscheduled delay to a freight or passenger train that
affects Railway's ability to fully utilize its equipment and to meet customer service and
Contract obligations. Contractor will be billed, as further provided below, for the economic
losses arising from loss of use of equipment and train service employees contractual loss of
incentive pay and bonuses, and contractual penalties resulting from train delays, whether
caused by Contractor, or subcontractors, or by the Railway performing Railway Work as
required by the project. Railway agrees that it will not perform any act to unnecessarily
cause train delay.
For loss of use, Contractor will be billed per freight train hour at an average rate of
($385.33 in 1997) with annual adjustments per hour per train as determined from Railway's
record. Any disruption to train traffic may cause delays to multiple trains at the same time
for the same period.
In addition to the above damages, passenger, U.S. mail trains and certain other grain,
intermodal, coal and freight trains operate under incentive/penalty contracts between
Railway and its customer. Under these arrangements, if Railway does not meet its contract
service commitment, Railway may suffer loss of performance or incentive pay or be subject
to a penalty payment. Contractor shall be responsible for any train performance and
incentive penalties or other contractual economic losses actually incurred by Railway which
are attributable to a train delay caused by Contractor, or subcontractors.
As example, a train arrives 30 minutes after its contract service commitments and Railway
is assessed damages per terms of the contract. Either Contractor, and/or subcontractors,
caused a 29 minute delay to the train and therefore are not responsible for any train
performance and incentive penalties or other contractual economic losses actually incurred
by Railway.
As example, a train arrives 30 minutes after its contract service commitments and Railway
is assessed damages per terms of the contract. Either Contractor, and/or subcontractors,
caused a 31 minute delay to the train and therefore are 100% responsible for any train
performance and incentive penalties or other contractual economic losses actually incurred
by Railway.
Union Pacific Railroad Company Page 15
(Exhibit C & C-1)
The contractual relationship between Railway and its customers is proprietary and
confidential. In the event of a train delay covered by this Agreement, Railway will share
information relevant to any train delay to the maximum extent consistent with Railway
confidentiality obligations. Damages for train delay for certain trains could be as high as
$50,000.00 per incident.
Contractor and subcontractors shall plan, schedule, coordinate and conduct all Contractor's
work so as to not cause any delays to any trains.

measuring the overall length of 100 mm (4 inch) line removed. The quantity of stripe
removal will be the computed length of lines removed based on a nominal width of 100 mm
(4 inches). For computation purposes, the following apply:
The width of a line is the normal standard line width applied during original
placement of solid no-passing lines, broken (skip) lines, edge lines, and any other
lines normally 100 mm (4 inches) wide
The length of continuous lines is length of the line
The length of broken (skip) stripes is the standard length of a skip line normally
painted during original placement of the lines (3 m (10 feet) of paint per 12.2 m
(40 feet) of roadway length)
The length of standard 200 mm (8 inch) or 300 mm (12 inch) wide stripes will be adjusted
by converting to equivalent length of 100 mm (4 inch) width line. No conversion or
adjustment will be allowed for lines that are wider or longer due to improper placement or
retracing deviations.
Pavement marking removal will be the area of each marking removed and will be the
nominal area determined by multiplying the width times the length of the marking. No
deductions will be made for corners or irregular shapes.
00225.83(e) Striping and Stripe Removal Mobilization - Replace this subsection with the
following subsection:
00225.83(e) Striping and Stripe Removal Mobilization - Striping and stripe removal

Formatted: Right
Formatted: Font color: Orange
Section 00305, which is not a Standard Specification, is included for this Project by Special
Formatted: Hidden
Provision.
Description
00305.00 Scope - This work consists of all surveying activities necessary to control the
many phases of work required to construct the Project to the lines and grades as shown,
specified, or established.
Make all supporting computations and field notes required for control of the work and as
necessary to establish the exact position, orientation, and elevation of the work from control
stations, including furnishing and setting construction stakes and marks, reference marks,
and additional control stations.
Plans, specifications and other data necessary to lay out the work will be available for
inspection at the Project Manager’s office.
00305.01 Definitions:
Confidence Points - Random points measured in the field within the boundary of a digital
terrain model (DTM), the purposes of which are to verify the accuracy of the DTM and to
provide evidence just prior to construction that the DTM is a reasonable representation of
the original ground for computation of volumes and pay quantities. Similarly, confidence
points are used to verify that a constructed grade has been built according to the design
DTM. Additional information is available from the Engineer.
Confidence point locations follow these guidelines:
Randomly selected without regard for the location of DTM points or triangles
Evenly distributed over the entire DTM area to be validated
Proportionately distributed between confidence point classifications as applicable
At a density sufficient to validate the surface, generally ten per instrument location
as used in collecting DTM data or if not applicable, as in data collected
photogrammetrically, 2% of DTM points
Control Network - An array of control stations either established by the Contractor or
provided by the Agency.
Control Station - Any item identified in the Project records as having a position and/or
elevation on the Project datum and intended to be used to control the many phases of the
construction work.
Digital Terrain Model (DTM) - An electronic computer model of the shape of the ground.

Reference Stakes - Stakes set away from but with information relating back to the intended
location and/or grade.
Slope Catch - The location where a design slope intersects the existing ground and where
excavation or embankment work should begin to provide the intended earthwork.
Slope Staking - The process of using measurements and calculations in the field to
determine the slope catch. Slope staking shall normally include setting stakes to mark the
slope catch and setting a reference stake for every catch stake.
Stakes - Stakes, nails, marks, string lines, or other devices or mechanisms set or
established for the purpose of indicating or controlling the location, orientation, or grade of
any feature intended for construction, or for the purpose of limiting or influencing the
construction work.
Staking - The act of placing stakes.
Survey Marker - Any survey monument, control station, or stake.
Survey Monument - Any natural or man-made item specified or identified in a property
deed, boundary survey, government document, or other instrument of public record, when
the purpose of said item is to mark or reference a property boundary, geographical location,
elevation, or other position.
Surveyor - The individual designated by the Contractor and licensed in the state of Oregon
as a Professional Land Surveyor and placed in "responsible charge" of the survey work as
defined in ORS 672.002(6)(b).
Temporary Bench Mark (TBM) - A control station established for the purpose of providing
vertical control for the Project. A TBM may or may not have an established horizontal
position.
00305.02 Mandatory Pre-Survey Conference - The prime Contractor, subcontractors,
surveyor, survey crew leader, and all surveying personnel who are to be involved in the
survey work shall meet with the Project Manager two weeks prior to beginning survey work.

information shall be adequate for the Engineer to review the location and elevation of the
mark for the intended purpose prior to incorporating material that is based on the mark.
(a) Bridge Survey Control Stations - Use the smallest number of original Project control
stations as is practical for establishing positions and reference points for bridge construction
on one bridge. Use of multiple control stations will increase the probability of incorporating
error into the construction. Use control stations that are as closely related mathematically
as practical. The Contractor may establish additional control stations as necessary to

Compare measured values with those computed from original horizontal network
coordinates and vertical network elevations
Any discrepancy of concern to either the Contractor or the Engineer will be resolved
before that combination of control stations is used
(b) Layout Marks and Reference Points:
(1) Substructure - Stake, reference, or otherwise identify locations, orientations, and
elevations necessary for placement of substructure components, including but not
limited to cofferdams, pilings (including batter), footings, columns, abutments, caps,
cross beams, bearing devices, temporary supports or falsework, and excavations and
embankments associated with any of the above.
Verify and document the locations, elevations and spatial relationships with adjacent
substructure components. On bridges where prefabricated beams will be used,
measure and document span lengths between bearing devices at each beam location
as soon as practical. Supply a copy of such documentation to the Engineer for review
before the next stage of construction.
Compute the final elevations after studying the plans, specifications, and shop
drawings. Adjust the grades as needed to compensate for camber of prefabricated
beams, chording of beams across the low side of superelevations, width of flat beams
on superelevated surfaces, and any other factor resulting from design or construction
methods.
(2) Superstructure - Stake, reference or otherwise identify locations, orientations, and
elevations necessary for placement of superstructure components including but not
limited to beams, girders, diaphragms, earthquake restraints, deck, rails, structure
mounted traffic control and illumination devices, and concrete forms, temporary
supports and falsework associated with any of the above.
Stake alignment of structure as needed at each stage of construction. Stake alignment
of poured-in-place items at 3 m (10 foot) stations or as established by the Engineer.
Stake alignment for the following items as needed to maintain the horizontal tolerance
defined in 00305.40:
Outside edge of girder(s)
Face(s) or centerline(s) of internal girders or stem walls
Edge of deck
Alignment of grade breaks
Pedestrian and bicycle facilities
Rails and railings
Stake grades at each stage of construction. Stake grade of poured-in-place items at
3 m (10 foot) stations, or as established by the Engineer. Apply corrections to design
grades based on the dynamics of the evolving structure. Corrections that may be
required depend upon the design of the bridge and the construction methods employed.
Provide correction values to the Engineer at least 15 working days prior to incorporating
into the structure. The following list is examples of possible corrections:
SPS14027, Pendleton – North Powder Section, Final, 2/7/06 74
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
Design camber (upward adjustment to compensate for anticipated deflection)
Structural deflection (deflection of the bridge under its own increasing weight)
Post tensioning lift (upward movement of the bridge under post tensioning
forces)
Structural shifting (dynamics of the bridge under eccentric loading)
Falsework deflection (deflection of falsework beams under increasing weight)
Falsework crush (compression of falsework supports under increasing weight)
Form crush (compression of forms under increasing weight)
Equipment deflection (deflection of deck finishing machine or deck rails)
Other adjustments to staked value to achieve the design grade
(c) Bridge Deck Grades - Set stakes or other devices to control the deck grade elevations.
The exact process will depend upon the type of deck and the equipment being used. Stake
and construct finished deck grades within the tolerances of 00305.40.
(1) Portland Cement Concrete Deck - The surveyor and survey crew leader shall
attend the first of the two deck pre-placement conferences, described in 00540.02(a),
required for each deck placement.
Control of a PCC deck may involve significant work with the deck placement crew to
establish control for a deck finishing machine. Rails for supporting the deck finishing
machine are generally set up on either side of the deck. Each rail is held up by
adjustable supports every 2 m (5 feet). Adjust the rail at each support to the desired
grade while the rail is supporting the weight of the finishing machine. Corrections may
need to be applied as listed in 00305.51(b-2).
(2) Asphaltic Concrete Deck - Control of an AC deck will not generally involve as
many variables as PCC. An AC deck serves as a wearing surface, but not a structural
component. Asphaltic concrete will frequently be used as filler to create the desired
superelevations when flat beams form the superstructure. Stake control of the finish
grade like any asphalt finish grade. Under some circumstances, design camber and
structural deflection may need to be considered.
00305.52 Pavements - Set stakes or other control devices to control the location and
elevation of asphalt and PCC pavement as shown. Provide surveying or survey-related
activity necessary to control grade, thickness, and smoothness as required.
00305.53 Signs, Signals, and Illumination - Determine the exact location of posts, poles,
cabinets, junction boxes, detectors and other similar appurtenances and their relative
location to roadway features such as edge of pavement, curbs, sidewalks, sidewalk ramps,
lane lines, etc., by means of field measurements. This may require an approved field
adjustment to the planned location in order to avoid obstacles or ensure its placement in a
functional location. Field verify length of poles, posts, mast arms, and tenon locations and
field verify orientation of triangular bases for poles, and submit documentation to the
Engineer.
Set a stake referencing the center of the item. Set a guard stake with the following
information written on it:

foot per hour), as determined from Figure 00540-1, or as the loss of surface sheen
when the evaporation rate at the surface exceeds the bleed rate.
(2) Provide high pressure washers, according to 00540.28, fitted with fog nozzles
during all deck placements to prevent and control premature drying. Apply fog spray
upwind of the concrete placement during finishing, texturing and until the evaporation
reducer compound has been applied. The purpose of fogging is to keep the concrete
cool and prevent uneven shrinkage in the concrete before the cure is applied. Do not
allow larger water droplets that drip from nozzles to fall onto the freshly finished plastic
concrete.
(3) Apply an evaporation reducer compound from the QPL immediately after the
texturing operation. Apply the reducer with a pressurized mechanical power sprayer
that will produce a fine and uniform spray at a rate of 6.5 m2/L (250 square feet/gallon).
Re-agitate the mixed material immediately before and during application. Wash away
any reducer that comes into contact with hardened concrete surfaces. Avoid finishing
concrete surface after placement of reducer.
(4) Cover the concrete with a single layer of clean initial covering immediately after
finishing, texturing, and applying an evaporation reducer. The initial covering shall be
one continuous piece, with a minimum length sufficient to cover the bridge deck from
side to side of the concrete placement. Use one of the following:
Saturated wet burlap having a minimum dry mass (weight) of 310 g/m Formatted: Indent: Left: 0.5", Bulleted +
(10 ounces per yard) for material 1 m (40 inches) wide. Presoak the burlap by Level: 1 + Aligned at: 1" + Tab after: 1.25" +

immersing it completely in water for 72 hours prior to the deck placement and
presoak new burlap with a wetting agent. All overlaps shall be a minimum of
150 mm (6 inches).
Non-woven, needle punched polypropylene fabric curing blanket from the QPL. Formatted: Indent: Left: 0.5", Bulleted +
Place wet or dry. Fabric shall be wetted by fogging within 15 minutes of fabric Level: 1 + Aligned at: 1" + Tab after: 1.25" +
Indent at: 1.25", Tab stops: Not at 1.25"
placement. All overlaps shall be a minimum of 300 mm (12 inches).
(5) Provide soaker hoses for additional soaking of the initial covering. Place over the
full width of the concrete placement, at a maximum of 3.0 m (10 feet) intervals.
Periodically, as needed, operate the soaker hoses to re-saturate the initial covering.
Other methods of re-saturating the initial cover may be submitted to the Engineer for
review and approval.
(6) Place a layer of 100 m (4 mil) polyethylene film over the initial covering and soaker
hoses. The polyethylene film shall be clear or white if the air temperature is forecasted
to be above 18 °C (65 °F) within 24 hours of the concrete placement, and black at other
times, as determined by the Engineer. Overlap the edges of polyethylene film by
300 mm (12 inches). Keep the film in place by taping and weighting the edges where
they overlap or are vulnerable to movement by wind. Once a particular type of film has
been placed, do not change it during the curing period.
(7) Maintain a continuous water cure of the concrete surface for 14 days.

This test is performed using an Alpine Air Jet Sieve (Type 200LS). A representative
five gram sample of fiber is sieved for 14 minutes at a controlled vacuum of 75 kPa of
water. The portion remaining on the screen is weighed.
2
This test is performed using standard No. 850, 425, 250, 180, 150, 106 m (No. 20,
No. 40, No. 60, No. 80, No. 100, No 140) sieves, nylon brushes and a shaker. A
representative 10 gram sample of fiber is sieved, using a shaker and two nylon
brushes on each screen. The amount retained on each sieve is weighed and the
percentage passing calculated.
3
A representative 2 - 3 gram sample is placed in a tared crucible and heated between
595° C (1,100 °F) and 650° C (1,200 °F) for not less than two hours. The crucible and
ash are cooled in a desiccator and weighed.
4
Five grams of fiber is added to 100ml of distilled water, stirred and let sit for
30 minutes. The pH is determined with a probe calibrated with pH 7.0 buffer.
5
Five grams of fiber is accurately weighed and suspended in an excess of mineral
spirits for not less than five minutes to ensure total saturation. It is then placed in a
screen mesh strainer (approximately 0.5 square millimeter hole size) and shaken on a
wrist action shaker for ten minutes (approximately 32 mm (1 1/4 inch) motion at
240 shakes/minute). The shaken mass is then transferred without touching, to a tared
container and weighed. Results reported as the amount (number of times its own
weight) the fibers are able to absorb.
6
Ten grams of fiber is weighed and placed in a 121° C (250 °F) forced air oven for two
hours. The sample is then reweighed upon removal from the oven.

I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
(1) MDV Quality Control:
a. General - Perform MDV testing on projects with Level 2, Level 3, or Level 4
dense graded HMAC. Perform MDV tests on every sublot and as required at start
up according to 00745.16(b-1-c) and the MFTP. Perform gradation and asphalt
content testing with each MDV test. Calculate the following values for each MDV
test.
Air Voids
Voids in Mineral Aggregate (VMA)
Voids Filled with Asphalt (VFA)
P 75 μm (P No. 200) / Effective AC (Pbe) Ratio
The running averages of four MDV results shall be within the limits given below:
Average of Limit
Air Voids 4 samples JMF Target 1.0%
VMA 4 samples 11.5 - 18.0 (25 mm (1") - Mix)
12.5 - 18.0 (19 mm (3/4") - Mix)

65 - 78 (Level 2)
P 75 μm (P No. 200) / Pbe 4 samples 0.80 - 1.60
The CDT shall provide the results from the initial control strip to the CAT II for
evaluation and comparison with the MDV results. If the MDV and density test
results are contradictory, initiate an investigation. The CAT II shall recommend a
plan to the Engineer for resolving the discrepancy based on the results of the
investigation.
Take corrective action when required by the MDV start-up process of
00745.16(b-1-c). After the requirements of 00745.16(b-1-c) have been met, take
corrective action if the MDV test results show that two consecutive running average
of four samples are outside the above limits for air voids, VMA, VFA, or P 75 μm
(No. 200) / Pbe ratio. Document the corrective action and notify the Engineer. If
test results continue to be outside the tolerance, stop production and make
adjustments. Restart production only after the Engineer has approved the proposed
adjustments. If the MDV test results are outside tolerance, but the mixture meets
the current requirements for gradation and asphalt content, an adjustment to the
JMF targets is required. Do not start a new lot as a result of the adjustment.
A request for an adjustment to the JMF targets may be made to the Engineer by the
Contractor’s CAT-II. The requested change will be reviewed and documented by
the Engineer. If acceptable, a revised JMF will be allowed. Clearly document the
sublot test for which the adjusted targets are in effect. Adjustments for gradation
shall not exceed the tolerances specified for the original JMF limits. Adjustments for
AC content shall be within 0.5% of the original JMF. The JMF asphalt content may
SPS14027, Pendleton – North Powder Section, Final, 2/7/06 140
I-84: Pendleton – North Powder
Grading, Structures & Paving
only be reduced if the production VMA meets or exceeds the above requirements.
Adjustments for RAP content shall be within 5% of the original JMF, but shall not
exceed the requirements of 00745.03. Regardless of these tolerances, the adjusted
JMF shall be within the mixture specification control points of 00745.12. If a
redesign of the mixture becomes necessary, submit a new JMF according to the
requirements of these specifications.
Perform a Tensile Strength Ratio (TSR) test (AASHTO T 283) on a sample obtained
during the first two days of production after QC test results verify that HMAC
constituents with a weighting factor greater than one according to 00745.95 are in
tolerance. Provide test results to the Engineer within four working days of obtaining
the sample. Stop production and make adjustments if the TSR is less than 70.
Restart production only after the Engineer has approved the proposed adjustments.
b. Laboratory Compactor Selection - Use a Gyratory compactor for MDV when a
Gyratory compactor is used to develop the JMF. For all other cases, use a Gyratory
compactor or Marshall compactor, as selected by the Contractor.
c. MDV Requirements at Start-Up - Perform MDV testing at the start-up of the
JMF production according to the following process:
1. Obtain a sample during the first 100 Mg (100 tons) of production and
immediately perform MDV testing.
2. If air voids and VMA are within tolerance, then continue remaining MDV
testing at the established random QC sublot interval. If not, then go to step
"3".
3. If air voids and/or VMA are out of tolerance according to 00745.16(b-1-a),
then make adjustments and immediately obtain another sample and perform
MDV testing. Go to step "4".
4. If air voids and VMA from the MDV testing in step "3" are within tolerance,
then continue remaining MDV testing at the established random QC sublot
interval. If not, go to step "5".
5. If air voids from step "3" are more than plus or minus 1.5% from the target,
then stop production immediately and make adjustments. If they are not,
then go to step "6". Obtain approval of the Engineer before restarting
production. Begin MDV testing again at step "1".
6. If air voids from step "3" are out of tolerance and 1.5% or less from the
target, or the VMA from step "3" is out of tolerance, then make adjustments
and immediately obtain another sample and perform MDV testing. Go to
step "4".
The initial MDV sample shall be used as the first random QC sublot test.
Subsequent MDV samples required due to failure of start-up criteria will be used for
a sublot QC test if the sample is taken within 100 Mg (100 tons) of the scheduled
random QC sample location. If not, the MDV testing shall be performed separate
