CITY OF SANTA ANA INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS PROJECT NO.: XX-XXXX PROJECT TITLE xvii SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS FOR FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECTS DAVIS-BACON ACT Because this project is funded with XXXXXXXXXX money, the rate of wages for each craft or type of worker or mechanic employed under this contract shall be specified under the current determinations of the Department of Labor as required under the Davis-Bacon Act. The current wage determination can be obtained at the following location, upon entering Davis-Bacon Act Wage Decision (DBA WD) #CA35: www.wdol.gov/dba.aspx Notwithstanding the conditions hereinabove, the California Labor Code stipulated that not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract in the locality in which the work is to be performed, and not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for holiday and overtime work as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California shall be paid to all workers employed. A copy of the prevailing rate of per diem wages is on file in the Public Works Agency, Construction Engineering Division, City of Santa Ana and is available on request to any interested party. Where a discrepancy exists between federal and state prevailing wage rates, the policy of the California Department of Labor is to require that the higher of the two prevailing wage rates shall apply. DESIGN ENGINEER MAY NOT BID ON CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT No engineering or architectural firm which has provided design services for a project shall be eligible to bid on the contract to construct the project. The firms ineligible to bid include the Prime Contractor for design, Subcontractors of portions of the design, and affiliates of either. An affiliate is a firm which is subject to the control of the same persons, through joint ownership or otherwise. DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES (DBE) Under 49 CFR 26.13(b): The contractor, subrecipient 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 recipient deems appropriate. Take necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that DBEs have opportunity to participate in the contract (49 CFR 26). To ensure equal participation of DBEs provided in 49 CFR 26.5, the Agency shows a goal for DBEs. Make work available to DBEs and select work parts consistent with available DBE subcontractors and suppliers. 505 E Central Ave #B11/6/2024
