SCHEDULE AND SUSPENSION OF WORK
The New York State Thruway is a limited access, high-speed, high-volume highway. Traffic shall be maintained
in accordance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the Work Zone Traffic Control
Plans, the Standard Specifications Section 619 and the following provisions:
A. WORK ZONE TRAFFIC CONTROL
1. Lane closures on the Thruway shall only be allowed in accordance with the traffic management table(s),
available on the Thruway Authority website at http://www.thruway.ny.gov/business/contractors/standard-
sheets/index.shtml, unless indicated otherwise in the contract documents. If more than one table is
applicable to a work zone location, the most restrictive requirements shall be used. Traffic management
tables do not guarantee lane closure availability; the requirements of Section B. Work Restrictions shall
supersede these tables, when applicable.
2. Lane closures on the Thruway will be permitted for work site access, delivery of materials and equipment,
and work operations. Personal vehicles will NOT be allowed to park along the Thruway or within lane
closures on the Thruway at any time. During non-working hours, all equipment and materials shall be
stored at least 30 feet from the edge of pavement (both mainline and ramps) or be protected by a physical
barrier approved by the Engineer.
3. Lane closures will NOT be permitted during holiday periods or when unforeseen circumstances arise, as
described in Section B. Work Restrictions, unless indicated otherwise in the contract documents.
4. Lane closures will NOT be permitted for the sole convenience of the Contractor. Lane closures will be
permitted in order to protect traffic from an actual hazard, as determined by the Engineer.
5. Permanent lane closures will NOT be permitted for the duration of the contract.
6. Simultaneous closure of right and left shoulders will NOT be permitted unless indicated otherwise in the
contract documents. Either right or left shoulder must remain clear and available through all work zones.
The open shoulder shall not be used for the storage of vehicles, equipment, supplies or any other
obstructions, or for any work activity.
7. Ramp closures will NOT be permitted, unless indicated otherwise in the contract documents. Access to
interchanges, service areas and parking areas shall be maintained at all times.
8. Traffic will NOT be permitted to drive on milled pavement, unless indicated otherwise in the contract
documents.
B. WORK RESTRICTIONS
1. CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY BRIDGES
a.) Projects Should Be Completed and Lane Closures removed Prior to Winter Plowing.
b.) Village of Silver Creek Events:

2. Proposed lane closure schedules shall be submitted to the Engineer for review and approval at least one
week in advance of the earliest closure.
3. The Contractor shall NOT be allowed to establish any lane closures during periods of inclement weather,
wet or icy pavement, reduced visibility, traffic accident, emergency, or if the lane closure is causing
excessive delay to the public. The Authority reserves the right to alter any lane closure and/or direct the
Contractor to immediately remove a lane closure during such circumstances. The Authority shall be the
sole judge of when conditions warrant these lane closure restrictions, and such restrictions will not entitle
the Contractor to file a claim for additional compensation.
4. BUFFALO DIVISION: Work operations shall be scheduled to avoid interference with increased traffic
volumes generated by Buffalo Bills home games or Canadian holidays. Also, Wednesday, August 7,
2019, (August 5, 2020) through Sunday, August 18, 2019, (August 16, 2020), lane closures are limited to
nighttime due to the Erie County Fair.
NIAGARA SECTION AND INTERCHANGES 49 TO 57: On Monday, August 5, 2019, (August 3,

2020), lane closures will NOT be permitted from 7:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. for the Civic Day (Canada)
holiday.
5. WINTER SHUTDOWN. A winter shutdown shall be in effect from 3:00 p.m. November 15 to
6:00 a.m. April 1. During this period, the Contractor shall NOT be permitted to have lane closures. All
temporary tape lines shall be removed, temporary concrete barrier shall be set in its winter shutdown
location, and all traffic shall be re-established to its pre-construction configuration on permanent
alignment. Mobilization for the following construction season may begin prior to April 1 with permission
from the Authority.
6. The Contractor shall submit a Plan of Operations to the Engineer prior to working on any full-depth repair
area shown in the contract documents. The Plan of Operations shall list all full-depth repair areas and the
estimated duration to complete each location. The Contractor shall also identify any full-depth repair area
that may not be completed within the timeframes allowed by the traffic management table(s). For such
location(s), the Contractor may request a waiver of restrictions to complete the repair(s). The Authority
will review the request and determine whether or not a waiver will be granted. The Authority has the right
to divide repair areas into smaller sections in lieu of granting a waiver.
7. The Contractor shall have 45 calendar days to replace the Milled in Audible Roadway Delineators
(MIARDs; Formerly referred to as Shoulder Treatment for Accident Reduction (STAR) groove pattern)
where more than 1,500 contiguous feet have been removed by other contract work. The Contractor shall
also ensure that MIARDs are installed prior to the official shutdown period, regardless of the 45 calendar
3 of 5
57
day requirement or the length removed. Exceptions to this requirement are shoulders protected by
temporary traffic control devices installed as part of a work zone traffic control plan developed in the
contract documents or areas directly adjacent to detour pavement that will be used in subsequent phase(s)
of the project.
The Contractor shall consider these requirements when preparing bids and scheduling/sequencing the
work for this contract. Failure to comply with the time frames specified will be considered a substantial
deficiency in work zone traffic control and result in the non-payment for the Basic Work Zone Traffic
Control Item for each calendar day during which MIARDs (formerly referred to as STARs) remain
incomplete. Liquidated Damages will also be assessed at rates shown in Table 108-1 of the NYSDOT
Standard Specifications.
8. Work restrictions may be modified if:
a. The Contractor has received permission through the Engineer, from the Division Director or designee,
to progress construction operations contained entirely behind temporary concrete barrier. There shall
be no hauling of materials in or out of the work site during restricted periods, and open lane
availability requirements shall not be violated or compromised.
b. The Contractor has received permission through the Engineer, from the Division Director or designee,
for temporary modification of the lane availability restrictions for performance of specific
construction operations for a specific time period.
NOTE: Such requests must be based on current traffic volumes which would permit the requested
temporary modification with little probability of causing disruption or delay to the public.
The Contractor shall include full explanation of the benefits to the Public and to the Authority, which
would accrue in granting a temporary waiver for performance of the specific operations including
calculations for any credit that may be offered. A contingency plan for action to be taken, should an
unexpected traffic backup occur, shall accompany this presentation and will be one prime
consideration in evaluating the request.
c. The Contractor has received written authorization from the Division Director or designee to perform
specific construction operations, violating the lane availability restrictions or other work restrictions
during a specifically prohibited time period.
NOTE: The Contractor shall submit a written request to the Authority’s Division Director, with copy
to the Engineer, for permission to perform specific construction operations at specific locations and
times, including a detailed explanation of why the work cannot be performed in conformance with the
contract. Such requests must be received at the Division Office at least one full week before the date
of the requested variance, and at least two full weeks should granting the waiver require making
notice to the public regarding potential disruptions and delays.
If written authorization to work is granted by the Authority, the Contractor shall be strictly limited to
those operations approved in the authorization. In making application for a waiver, the Contractor agrees
that any waiver of restrictions granted by the Authority is exclusively for the Authority’s benefit and
purposes, and as such is subject to revocation without requirement for advance notice. Also, the
disapproval of requests for waiver of contract requirements is not subject to administrative review or
appeal under the contract.

ASPHALT PAVEMENT USING HOT APPLIED SEALANT
DESCRIPTION
Clean and seal only primary cracks at locations shown in the contract documents or where directed by the
Engineer along their entire length. Do not treat secondary radial cracks. The Engineer will determine
which cracks are to be cleaned and sealed. In this specification, the word crack also means joint.
Primary cracks are defined as those greater than or equal to 1/8 inch and less than or equal to 1 inch wide.
MATERIALS
Crack Sealant. Use a sealant meeting the requirements of ASTM D6690 Type II; Joint and Crack
Sealants, Hot Applied, for Concrete and Asphalt Pavements. Deliver the sealant in the manufacturer's
original sealed container. The material will be accepted on the basis that the name of the supplier and
brand name appears on the current Highway Joint Sealant (ASTM D6690 Type II) Approved List and that
each container is marked with the following information:
Supplier's name
Brand name of the sealant
Manufacturer's lot or batch number
Pouring temperature
Safe heating temperature
Provide the Engineer with a copy of the manufacturer's recommendations pertaining to heating and
application of the sealant prior to commencing work.
CONSTRUCTION DETAILS
General. Complete all pavement repairs contained in the contract documents bordering pavement cracks
prior to commencing work.
Furnish all equipment that is necessary for cleaning and sealing the pavement cracks. Use equipment
meeting the description and/or performance requirements described herein and approved by the Engineer.
Replace pavement markings that become covered and/ or obliterated more than 25% of their width with
the sealant at no additional cost to the State.
Crack Preparation. Prepare cracks for sealing on the same day that they are to be sealed.
Use a high pressure air lance or hot air lance to thoroughly clean cracks to a minimum depth of 1/2 inch
of dust, dirt, foreign material, sand and any other extraneous materials immediately prior to sealing. Do
not burn, scorch or ignite the adjoining pavement when using a hot air lance.
Install suitable traps or devices on the compressed air equipment to prevent moisture and oil from
contaminating the crack surfaces. Maintain these devices and see that they are functioning properly.
Protect the public from potentially objectionable and/or hazardous airborne debris.
Sealant Melting. Heat and melt the sealant in a melter constructed either as a double boiler filled with a
heat-transfer medium between the inner and outer shells, or with internal tubes or coils carrying the
sealant through a heated oil bath and into a heated double wall hopper. The melter will be equipped with
separate thermometers to indicate the temperature of the heat transfer medium and the sealant material,
positive temperature controls and with a mechanical agitator or a recirculating pump to assure a
homogeneous blend of the sealant. Maintain the sealant at the pouring temperature ± 10º F indicated on

ITEM 402.76020008 - CLEANING AND SEALING CRACKS IN HOT MIX
ASPHALT PAVEMENT USING HOT APPLIED SEALANT
Check the discharge temperature of the sealant with a non-contact infrared thermometer. Discharge the
sealant at a temperature between the manufacturer's recommended pouring and safe heating temperatures
indicated on the material packaging. Submit an alternate method for measuring the discharge temperature
to the Engineer for approval if desired.
Sealing is not permitted if the melter and discharge temperatures do not meet with the requirements
described above.
Equip the discharge hose with a thermostatically controlled heating apparatus or insulate it to maintain the
proper sealant pouring temperature. Holster the discharge hose to the melter if it is not thermostatically
heat controlled. Circulate the sealant from the discharge hose and the melter to maintain the proper
sealant pouring temperature.
Do not use sealant material heated beyond the safe heating temperature.
If the manufacturer's recommendations allow the sealant to be reheated or heated in excess of six hours,
recharge the melter with fresh material amounting to at least 20 percent of the volume of the material
remaining in the melter.
Sealing. Sealing is to be done when ambient air temperature is at or above 40°F.
Seal the crack by placing the applicator wand in or directly over the crack opening and carefully
discharge the sealant. Strike-off the sealant flush with the pavement surface using a squeegee or sealing
shoe pressed firmly against the pavement. Only a narrow thin film of material measuring from 1 inch to 2
inches wide and 1/16 inch thick is allowed on the pavement surface after sealing the crack. If the sealant
sinks into the crack more than 3/8 inch below the pavement surface, clean it with high pressure air and
seal it to meet the specified thin film amount.
A low pressure, light spray of water may be used to accelerate cooling of the sealant. Blotting the sealant
with fine aggregate is not allowed. Remove and dispose sealant in excess of the specified thin "film"
dimensions or that has not bonded to both sides of the crack.
Do not allow traffic on the sealed cracks until the seal has cured so as not to track. Clean sealed cracks
damaged from traffic with high pressure air and reseal them to meet the specified thin film amount ay no
additional cost to the State.
The finished work shall produce a water tight crack sealed flush with the pavement surface.
METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
The Engineer will measure the number of feet of cleaned and sealed cracks in conformance with this

element is deteriorated, debonded, missing, or leaking. The sealing element is
replaced as part of the work.
B. Replace partial joint with an armorless joint system: Remove and replace
damaged portions of headers with elastomeric concrete. The existing joint system
consists of armoring angles and concrete or elastomeric headers that are locally
deteriorated or damaged whereby they may leak. The entire sealing element is
replaced and a portion of the header is replaced with elastomeric concrete.
C. Replace full joint with an armorless joint system. In this case, one or both sides
of the existing joint system are significantly deteriorated. Remove the existing joint
system in its entirety and install an approved armorless joint system.
MATERIALS
For work involving replacement of the sealing element, use a sealing element conforming to §705-
08 Preformed Closed-Cell Foam Material, 705-09 Preformed Elastic Bridge Joint Sealer, or
Preformed Seals from the Approved Materials List category Joint Materials, Structural.
For work involving partial replacement of the joint system, use an elastomeric concrete appearing

representative shall be fully conversant with the proper joint system installation methods. The
representative will advise both the Engineer and the Contractor about proper installation methods
and will certify that proper methods were followed for the joint installations he observes. The
representative will document, in writing, any deviations from the Materials Detail Sheets that are
recommended.
Preparation of Concrete and Steel Surfaces. Minimum cleaning standards are:
Steel: Commercial blast cleaned surface as defined by SSPC-SP6 and SSPC Vis 1-89
pictorial references BSa2 and CSa2.
Elastomeric and Portland Cement Concretes: Remove all surface contaminates and provide
a roughened surface with no evidence of gloss.
Both: Clean the joint recess to remove all loose or foreign matter prior to installation of the
elastomeric concrete by vacuuming
Removal of Existing Joints. Saw cut to a minimum depth of 1 inch into the deck. Do not cut
existing reinforcing unless required by the plans. Remove the joint and required concrete using
lightweight chipping hammers meeting §580-3.02.
Repairing Headers. Saw cut the concrete perimeter of header(s) to a minimum depth of 1 inch.
Saw cut areas of the deck adjacent to but beyond the concrete perimeter of header(s) that are
spalled or deteriorated areas to a minimum depth of 1 inch. The perimeters of the localized repairs
shall be as approximately delineated in the plans and as set by the EIC. Use lightweight chipping
hammers meeting §580-3.02 to remove concrete to a minimum depth of 1 inch. Remove concrete

Placement of Elastomeric Concrete. Install the material in strict accordance with the installation
instructions included in the Materials Details and the recommendations of the Manufacturer's
representative. In the event of a conflict, the Engineer will contact the Director, Materials Bureau,
prior to the placement of any elastomeric concrete material. All resolutions made by the Director,
Materials Bureau are final and binding.
Unless the Materials Details Sheets require more thorough cleaning, abrasive blast clean surfaces
that will come in contact with elastomeric concrete.
Elastomeric concretes have stiff consistencies and are fast setting. Care and speed are needed to
prevent voids in the material. It is essential to the performance of the joint that the elastomeric
concrete completely fills the space under the armoring angles to provide a watertight joint and the
necessary structural support.
Removal of Joint Seal. Cut and scrape the existing joint seal from the header or armoring angle.
Do not rely on blast cleaning to remove the bulk of the material.

SPECIAL NOTE:
CONTROL OF MATERIALS
The Contractor’s attention is directed to the TA Addendum, Section 106 – CONTROL OF MATERIAL, located
elsewhere in this Proposal. The Contractor understands and agrees that some or all of the off-site inspection and
approval of material such as precast concrete items, structural steel, bridge bearings, concrete structural elements
and/or their components to be used on this project will be done by the New York State Department of
Transportation (NYSDOT) as the Authority’s agent.
The Contractor agrees to the following conditions:
1. Whenever the Contractor receives direction from the NYSDOT regarding the approval/rejection of
material that direction constitutes direction by the Authority under the contract, and shall be final and
accepted as such by the Contractor.
2. The Contractor will not allow off-site materials subject to inspection and approval of NYSDOT to be
shipped to the project site without direct authorization from the NYSDOT.
3. At the Pre-Award Meeting or as soon as practicable, but in any case before the Pre-Construction
Conference, the Contractor will provide the following information to the Thruway Authority’s Director,
Office of Construction Management, for transmittal to NYSDOT to arrange off-site inspections:
A. The name and address of each Manufacturer of all materials, and portions thereof, requiring off-
site quality assurance to be incorporated into this highway project.
B. The name and address of each Fabricator fabricating each steel item or any portion thereof to be
incorporated into this highway project.
C. The name and address of each Fabricator manufacturing structural pre-cast/pre-stressed items or
any portion thereof to be incorporated into this highway project.
4. The Contractor agrees that it and its Subcontractors and Suppliers will acquire all materials to be
incorporated into this Thruway project only through Manufacturing, Batching and Fabrication facilities
approved by NYSDOT.

AVAILABILITY OF ELECTRONIC BID DATA
1. SUMMARY:
The New York State Thruway Authority (NYSTA) uses Trns•port Expedite Software for electronic bidding.
Expedite is a product of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO)
that is currently used by the majority of State Departments of Transportation. It is provided free of charge,
and can be used on almost any Windows-compatible PC. It integrates with many existing electronic bid
preparation software, and has import/export capability for use with database and spreadsheet systems.
Expedite allows bidders to receive electronic proposal bid item information from the New York State
Thruway Authority (NYSTA) internet web site and to produce both an electronic and a paper-based bid.
For additional information and downloads, see the NYSTA website at:
http://www.nysthruway.gov/business/contractors/expedite/index.html.
2. PARTICIPATION AND RELATIONSHIP TO PAPER DOCUMENTS:
Electronic bidding neither replaces paper bids nor forces any Contractor to bid electronically. Rather,
participation is voluntary and electronic bidders must submit paper documents that match the electronic
file. Expedite prints a check code on every bid page that must match the check code in the computer file. As
the check code changes every time the electronic file is modified, matching the codes verifies that the data on
the printed bid is the same as in the electronic file. In case of discrepancy, paper bids always prevail and
are the primary legal document.
3. THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE:
The NYSTA endorses no particular product but expects all such vendors and individuals to voluntarily keep
pace with changes in NYSTA specifications.
4. PROPOSAL NOTES AND CHANGES BY AMENDMENT:
Contractors are solely responsible for recognizing and properly responding to any and all special notes and
circumstances printed in the Contract Proposal and any and all changes by amendment from the amendment
documents and/or notices communicated to them by the NYSTA Contracts Unit. Amendments are posted
online at: http://www.thruway.ny.gov/business/contractors/documents/index.shtml. If an amendment
involves changes to item bid date, an amended Expedite file will be posted to the NYSTA website, and this
file must be applied to your electronic bid. However, not all amendments will involve changes to item bid
data. Do not bid without carefully reviewing the printed proposal and any and all changes by amendment.
Proposal notes and circumstances include, but are not limited to, printed information on alternate, fixed and/or
limited cost items and/or special circumstances regarding item placement and use.

SPECIAL NOTE:
REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR’S UTILIZATION OF AREAS

OUTSIDE OF THE RIGHT-OF-WAY
1. Before the contractor can utilize any area outside of the NYS Thruway Authority (NYSTA) Right of Way (or
outside of a temporary easement obtained for the project by the NYSTA), for any work associated with this
project, written approval to do so shall be obtained from the NYS Thruway Authority through the Project
Engineer. The contractor’s request for approval shall be in writing and the Authority shall be allowed 2
weeks to review the request and respond.
2. This requirement applies to areas such as, but not limited to: borrow areas, spoil areas, equipment and/or
material storage areas, haul roads, batching areas, water points, shop areas, and all similar areas. This
requirement does not apply to the Contractor’s established and permanent headquarters, commercial borrow
sources, commercial gravel pits, commercial quarries, and all similar areas.
3. The contractor’s written request for approval shall include a letter report prepared by an Environmental
Professional, acceptable to the Authority, documenting the investigation of the proposed site. The
expectation is that an Environmental Professional visits the site, performs an assessment of the proposed use
against all applicable environmental requirements, and then documents their findings and recommendations.
The letter report shall include the following unless otherwise authorized by the Authority:
a) A written description of the activities the contractor wishes to perform at the proposed site, including
timeframes.
b) Maps showing Federal and State regulated wetlands. The area proposed for use shall be depicted on each
map.
c) A site location map which accurately shows the area proposed for use, adjacent property
boundaries/owners, the location of all wetland boundaries observed, and any required erosion and
sediment control measures. If present, wetlands shall be delineated in the field by the Environmental
Professional with stakes and ribbon, and wetland delineation data forms shall be completed.
d) A written statement prepared by the Environmental Professional regarding the presence of any rare
animals or plants or significant natural communities. The Environmental Professional shall use the
NYSDEC Environmental Resource Mapper to make this determination. If any rare species are identified,
then determine if the rare species are listed as endangered or threatened and whether the NYSDEC
determines the proposed use may be harmful to the species or their habitat. If so, address to the
satisfaction of the NYSDEC.
e) A copy of the applicable SPDES permit and any local municipal permits related to use of the site.
f) A listing of other Environmental Permits which were obtained by the Authority for the project. These are
referenced in the contract proposal.
g) A completed NYSTA Property Release form. The form is available through the Project Engineer.
h) A plan showing all restoration work. This includes, but is not limited to, plans for grading, surface
restoration details, and erosion and sediment control.
4. This requirement does not waive other provisions of the contract related to use of lands outside the Right of
Way. Rather, it shall be viewed as supplementary. The following contract provisions still remain in effect:
§107-08 Protection and Restoration of Property and Landscape, Subsection B. Outside the Right of Way
§107-10 Managing Surplus Material and Waste

COMPLIANCE WITH SPDES REGULATIONS
The Contractor is advised that the NYS Thruway Authority has evaluated Stormwater requirements for this
project and has determined that coverage is not warranted under NYS Department of Environmental
Conservation’s SPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activity (GP-0-15-002).
The Contractor shall read and understand the requirements of GP-0-15-002. In the event the Contractor’s
operations, e.g., clearing and grubbing, expanded staging area; will cause an increase in ground disturbance
beyond the amount identified in the Contract Documents, coverage under GP-0-15-002 may be required. Prior to
commencing these operations, the Contractor should immediately advise the Project Engineer, who will in turn
discuss the request with the Project Designer and Division Environmental Specialist or Environmental Point of
Contact.
 In the event coverage is required under GP-0-15-002 as a result of these operations, the Contractor will be
required to prepare a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and submit a Notice of Intent (NOI)
with the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation.
 In the event coverage is required under GP-0-15-002 as a result of changes made by the Authority, the
Authority will be required to prepare a SWPPP and submit a NOI.
In either case, the Contractor will not be allowed to proceed until verification of coverage under GP-0-15-002 has
been provided to the Project Engineer. The Contractor shall make no claim against the Authority for delays
resulting from preparing a SWPPP, filing a NOI, and seeking verification of permit coverage.

CONTROLLING EXPOSURE TO DIESEL EXHAUST
The Contractor shall exercise measures to protect “Sensitive Receptors” from the impacts of diesel exhaust fumes.
Sensitive Receptors include, but are not limited to: hospitals, schools, daycare facilities, building fresh air or
ventilation intakes, elderly housing or convalescent facilities. The Contractor shall ensure that diesel powered
engines are located away from building air conditioners and windows.
The goal is to minimize exposure of Sensitive Receptors in close proximity to diesel exhaust, in terms of both
concentration and time. In general, close proximity is defined as within 15 meters of a Sensitive Receptor.
Mitigation techniques include positioning stationary equipment exhausts greater than 15 meters from Sensitive
Receptors, extension of equipment exhausts through the use of flexible tubing; protecting building air intakes; and
the use of moving operations.
Idling time for diesel powered equipment shall be limited to three consecutive minutes for delivery and dump
trucks and all other diesel powered equipment except as follows:
• When a “mobile source” (vehicle) is forced to remain motionless because of traffic conditions or
mechanical difficulties over which the operator has no control.
• When it is necessary to operate a loading, unloading or processing device.
• When the outdoor temperature is less than - 3°C (27°F).
• When the “mobile source” is being repaired.
Arrow panels and portable variable message signs shall be solar powered wherever possible or practical.
Whenever possible and practicable, the Contractor shall establish staging areas for diesel powered vehicles waiting
to load or unload materials at the work site. Such areas shall be located where diesel emissions have the least
impact on Sensitive Receptors and the general public.

SPECIAL NOTES
DUST CONTROL
The Contractor shall minimize dust from disturbed soil surfaces or other materials that can cause off-site damage,
health hazards and traffic safety problems. Dusty conditions resulting from the Contractor's operations shall be
corrected at no additional cost to the State. Buffer areas of vegetation should be left where practical. Water quality
shall be considered when selecting materials for dust control. An approved dust palliative may be used in
conformance with applicable conditions placed on its use. A list of acceptable dust palliatives is available at:
www.nysdot.gov/divisions/engineering/technical-services/geotechnical-engineering-bureau/dust-palliatives .
For areas not subject to traffic, products and materials may be applied or placed on soil surfaces to prevent airborne
migration of soil particles, including:
• Vegetative Cover –provides the most practical method of dust control.
• Mulch (including rolled erosion control products) –provides a fast, effective method of dust control.
• Spray Adhesives –Generally composed of polymers in a liquid or solid form mixed with water to form an
emulsion that is sprayed on the soil surface. The mixing ratios and application rates will be in accordance
with the manufacturer’s recommendations for the specific soils on the site. Adhesives shall not be applied
to wet soils or if there is a probability of precipitation within 48 hours.
For areas subject to traffic (traveling public or construction traffic) products and materials may be applied or placed
on soil surfaces to prevent airborne migration of soil particles, including:
• Water Sprinkling – The site may be sprayed with water until the surface is wet. This is especially effective
on haul roads and access routes.
• Polymer Additives –Polymers shall be mixed with water and applied to the driving surface using mixing
ratios and application rates in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. No application of the
polymer will be made if there is a probability of precipitation within 48 hours of its proposed use. Any
polymers must be used in accordance with the NYSDEC issued “Conditions for Use” and “Application
Instructions.” This information can be obtained from the NYSDEC website.
• Barriers – Woven geotextiles or stone can be placed on the driving surface to effectively reduce dust throw
and particle migration on haul roads.
• Windbreak – A silt fence or similar barrier can control air currents at horizontal intervals equal to ten times
the barrier height. Preserve existing vegetation that acts as a wind barrier as much as practical.
• Wheel Washing – Mechanical or manual wet-method cleaning of on-road construction vehicle tires prior to
leaving site.

SPECIAL NOTE
GENERATOR KNOWLEDGE FOR DISPOSAL OF TREATED WOOD
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation (NYSDEC) technique for evaluating whether a material is hazardous for toxicity is the Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP). TCLP testing of pentachlorophenol (“penta”) and creosote treated
wood by the Electric Power Research Institute, Association of American Railroads, and others has conclusively
demonstrated that treated wood products are not a hazardous waste. Under EPA’s and NYSDEC’s rules, such
“generator knowledge” can be utilized in place of testing to determine that a waste is not hazardous. This
information can be used as evidence that treated wood products can be disposed as non-hazardous waste, based on
generator knowledge, in lieu of physical testing.
Generator knowledge information, obtained from the American Wood Preservers Institute (AWPI) can be viewed
at their web site located at www.awpi.org . AWPI’s information comes from studies conducted by the Electric
Power Research Institute (EPRI), the Washington Public Ports Association (WPPA), and the Association of
American Railroads (AAR). EPRI test results are for both penta-treated and creosote-treated wood. WPPA and
AAR test results are for creosote-treated wood.
NOTE: Arsenically-treated (e.g., chromated copper arsenate [CCA]) wood products disposed by the end user are
exempt from classification as a federal hazardous waste regardless of the TCLP results for specified constituents
from any individual sample. Also, wood products treated with preservatives that contain no TCLP constituents
(e.g., Kodiak Preserved Wood containing Copper Dimethyldithiocarbamate) are not hazardous waste.

FOREST INSECT DISEASE CONTROL
MOVEMENT OF WOOD MATERIALS FROM PROJECT SITES
Pursuant to New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) Regulations, 6NYCRR, part
192.5, Firewood Restrictions to Protect Forests from Invasive Species, it is unlawful to transport any firewood
material more than 50 miles from its point of origin to limit the spread of invasive insect species. “Firewood”
shall mean all wood of any species, cut or not cut, split or not split, regardless of length which is (a) in a form and
size appropriate for use as a fuel, or (b) which is destined for use as a fuel. Firewood shall not include kiln-dried
dimensional lumber, wood that has been chipped to a maximum piece size that is no greater than 1-inch in two
dimensions, or logs or wood being transported to sawmills or other manufacturing facilities for use in their
primary operations. All Thruway Authority (TA) projects are subject to this requirement. Additional information
can be found at the following link: http://www.dec.ny.gov/regs/4079.html
If firewood is to be moved within 50 miles of its point of origin a “Self-Issued Certificate of Origin for Transport
and Possession of Untreated Firewood” must be completed. This form can be found at the following link:
http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/lands_forests_pdf/selfisscert.pdf
INVASIVE SPECIES AND QUARANTINE MATERIALS MOVEMENT
NYSDEC Regulations, 6NYCRR, part 192.6, Quarantine Orders, No person shall fail to comply with the
provisions of any quarantine order issued by the Department pursuant to Environmental Conservation Law (ECL)
section 9-1303. To the extent the provisions of section 192.5 Firewood Restrictions to Protect Forests from
Invasive Species and such quarantine order are in conflict, the more restrictive provision shall apply. TA is under
New York State and Federal ash quarantines where it is unlawful to transport any ash material outside of several
counties (see quarantine maps at http://www.agriculture.ny.gov/PI/eab/emerald_ash_borer_quarantine.pdf and
http://www.dec.ny.gov/animals/47761.html). Therefore, any parts of ash trees, including leaves, bark, stumps,
limbs, branches, roots, and ash logs of any length, and firewood (see above for definition of firewood) from ANY
tree species, are all considered regulated articles and must be handled properly. Tree-felling, clearing and
grubbing operations at project sites may result in the contractor’s need to handle materials from ash tree species
and/or firewood or chips from ANY tree species. To the greatest extent possible in areas of clearing and grubbing,
ash trees should be pre-identified and marked prior to commencement of construction to promote the proper
handling of these materials.
Un-infested ash materials in any form may be moved offsite, but only within the quarantine zone. Firewood from
ANY tree species may never be moved more than 50 miles and never from the quarantine area, into non-
quarantine areas. Transport of any wood needs the required transport certificate:
http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/lands_forests_pdf/selfisscert.pdf
Note: According to the quarantine maps, several parts of the Thruway are the boundary between the quarantine
area (south) and the non-quarantine area (north). Therefore, transport of any wood material would be prohibited
across the roadway from south to north, but acceptable from north to south.
Note: Any ash materials that are known or suspected to be infested with live emerald ash borer pests in any life
stage must be reported immediately to the EIC and/or designee for further appropriate action and coordination
with regulatory agencies.

PARTICIPATION BY MINORITY AND WOMEN-OWNED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES:

REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
I. General Provisions
A. The New York State Thruway Authority (“Authority”) is required to implement the
provisions of New York State Executive Law Article 15-A and Parts 140-145 of Title 5 of
the New York Codes, Rules and Regulations (“NYCRR”) for all State contracts, as defined
therein, with a value (1) in excess of $25,000 for labor, services, equipment, materials, or
any combination of the foregoing or (2) in excess of $100,000 for real property renovations
and construction.
B. The contractor to the subject contract (the “Contractor” and the “Contract,” respectively)
agrees, in addition to any other nondiscrimination provision of the Contract and at no
additional cost to Authority, to fully comply and cooperate with Authority in the
implementation of New York State Executive Law Article 15-A and the regulations
promulgated thereunder. These requirements include equal employment opportunities for
minority group members and women (“EEO”) and contracting opportunities for New York
State-certified minority and women-owned business enterprises (“MWBEs”). The
Contractor’s demonstration of “good faith efforts” pursuant to 5 NYCRR § 142.8 shall be
a part of these requirements. These provisions shall be deemed supplementary to, and not
in lieu of, the nondiscrimination provisions required by New York State Executive Law
Article 15 (the “Human Rights Law”) and other applicable federal, state, and local laws.
C. Failure to comply with all of the requirements herein may result in a finding of non-
responsiveness, non-responsibility and/or a breach of contract, leading to the assessment
of liquidated damages pursuant to Section VII of this Appendix and such other remedies
are available to Authority pursuant to the Contract and applicable law.
II. Contract Goals
A. For purposes of this Contract, Authority hereby establishes an overall goal of 19% for
MWBE participation, 9% for New York State-certified minority-owned business enterprise
(“MBE”) participation and 10% for New York State-certified women-owned business
enterprise (“WBE”) participation (collectively, “MWBE Contract Goals”) based on the
current availability of MBEs and WBEs.
B. For purposes of providing meaningful participation by MWBEs on the Contract and

achieving the MWBE Contract Goals established in Section II-A hereof, the Contractor
should reference the directory of MWBEs at the following internet address:
https://ny.newnycontracts.com.
Additionally, the Contractor is encouraged to contact the Division of Minority and

Women’s Business Development at (212) 803-2414 to discuss additional methods of
maximizing participation by MWBEs on the Contract.

Appendix B
C. The Contractor understands that only sums paid to MWBEs for the performance of a
commercially useful function, as that term is defined in 5 NYCRR § 140.1, may be applied
towards the achievement of the applicable MWBE participation goal. The portion of a
contract with an MWBE serving as a supplier that shall be deemed to represent the
commercially useful function performed by the MWBE shall be 60% of the total value of
the contract. The portion of a contract with an MWBE serving as a broker that shall be
deemed to represent the commercially useful function performed by the MWBE shall be
the monetary value for fees, or the markup percentage, charged by the MWBE].
D. The Contractor must document “good faith efforts,” pursuant to 5 NYCRR § 142.8, to
provide meaningful participation by MWBEs as subcontractors and suppliers in the
performance of the Contract. Such documentation (list provided on the Authority’s
website) shall include, but not necessarily be limited to:
1. Evidence of outreach to MWBEs;

2. Any responses by MWBEs to the Contractor’s outreach;
3. Copies of advertisements for participation by MWBEs in appropriate general
circulation, trade, and minority or women-oriented publications;
4. The dates of attendance at any pre-bid, pre-award, or other meetings, if any, scheduled
by the Authority with MWBEs; and,
5. Information describing specific steps undertaken by the Contractor to reasonably
structure the Contract scope of work to maximize opportunities for MWBE
participation.
III. Equal Employment Opportunity (“EEO”)
A. The provisions of Article 15-A of the Executive Law and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder pertaining to equal employment opportunities for minority group
members and women shall apply to the Contract.
B. In performing the Contract, the Contractor shall:
1. Ensure that each contractor and subcontractor performing work on the Contract shall

TRAINING SPECIAL PROVISIONS – STATE FUNDED
This work shall consist of the employment and meaningful and effective training of minority and
women in NYS Thruway Authority approved training programs leading to their qualification as
journeyworkers in the skilled trades required in highway construction. This Training Special
Provision supplements the Equal Employment Opportunity requirements included elsewhere in
this Proposal entitled “Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Requirements”. Each of the fore-
going prescribed specific percentage goals for utilization of minorities and women in the
performance of work for the geographic location of the contract.
GENERAL: The primary objective of this Training Special Provision is to provide training
opportunities to minorities and women in construction trades for two purposes:
1. To maintain a pool of qualified minorities and women to replace those journeyworkers who,
in the natural course of events, will leave the workforce; and
2. To provide minorities and women as indentured apprentices or trainees in those geographic

areas where shortages in minorities and women journeyworkers are recognized because of the
Contractor’s inability to meet the EEO goals set fourth in this contract.
Each contract which contains this Training Special Provision shall require the training of at least
one minority or woman indentured apprentice or trainee. Such individual shall be approved by
the Authority. Other then this initial training obligation, to be undertaken and provided by the
Contractor, no additional training obligations will exist under this Training Special Provision
unless the goals for minority and women employment and training in the skilled workforce
(exclusive of laborers) are not continuously met on the contract and generally distributed amongst
the trades. In the five counties of New York City, the goals specified for each trade are
applicable and must be met. Whenever the goals are not met, additional minorities and/or women
indentured apprentices and/or trainees will be assigned or approved in numbers necessary to meet
the goals. Data necessary to determine if goals are being met will be provided on Contractor and
Subcontractor Employment Utilization Reports (Form TA-1017-9). The data will be verified by
the visual observance of the Project Engineer, or designated project inspectors, and hours of
employment reported on Contractor or Subcontractor certified weekly payrolls.
The number of minorities and women indentured apprentices and trainees required to be trained
under this item shall not exceed 12% of the total journeyworker workforce on the contract, i.e. no
more than 1 in of the skilled workforce is required to be a minority or woman indentured
apprentice or trainee. This limitation applies regardless of minority and women representation in
the trades. However, this limit on required training in no way absolves the Contractor of the
responsibility to comply with the EEO requirements.
PRE-AWARD MEETING: Before the Contractor will be allowed to begin work, the
Contractor shall attend a Pre-award Meeting and shall submit for Authority use and acceptance, a
Workforce and Training Utilization Schedule (TA-1024) which shall be correlated to the
Contractor’s contract work schedule. The Schedule shall include at least the following
information:
1 of 5
120
1. A work schedule for the entire contract,
2. An estimate of the work force required to conform to the work schedule on a monthly
basis including an estimate of the workforce in each trade and/or work classification
projected to be used including Subcontractors,
3. Separate estimates of the number of minorities and women indentured apprentices or

trainees that would be required in each skilled trade to meet the contract EEO
employment goals for that trade assuming no minorities or women journeyworkers in the
workforce,
4. The proposed training programs to be used and the starting dates for training in each
trade and/or work classification,
5. An estimate of the availability of minorities and women journeyworkers in numbers

sufficient to meet the EEO contract goals, and
6. Any proposal by the Contractor to use trainees or indentured apprentices to make up for
anticipated EEO goal shortfalls. Such proposals shall include the name and craft of any
individual proposed by the Contractor as the required trainee or indentured apprentice. In
the case of an indentured apprentice, evidence of indentureship and registration of the
approved apprenticeship program must be included.
No contract work may be undertaken until the Authority has accepted the Schedule. The
Contractor shall submit a revised Workforce and Training Utilization Schedule at such times as
major changes in the contract work schedule occur which substantially affect the previously
submitted schedule.
RECRUITMENT: Although the training requirements of this Training Special Provision are not
intended, and shall not be used to discriminate against any applicant for training, whether a
member of a protected class or not, it is recognized that non-minority males have traditionally
been and continue to be trained, either formally or on-the-job in an informal manner, for work in
the trades utilized in construction work. Therefore, until such time that representative numbers of
minorities and women complete training and their utilization as journeyworkers is demonstrated
to the extent of the participation goals as set forth in the Authority’s construction contract,
training required under this Training Special Provisions will be primarily limited to minorities
and women. Thus, the Contractor shall demonstrate compliance with the intent of this Training
Special Provision by affording the Authority the opportunity to:
1. First, approve the use of a minority or woman indentured apprentice known to the
Contractor through an existing Joint Apprenticeship Training program, or
2. Second, provide a partially trained minority or woman trainee who is currently enrolled
in a New York State Department of Labor approved training program, or
3. Third, work cooperatively with the Contractor in recruitment of new minorities or women
trainees, when needed.
2 of 5
121
In conformance with the foregoing, the Authority’s Form TA-1018(Request for Personnel),
should be submitted to the Authority’s Affirmative Action Administrator identified to the
Contractor at the Preconstruction Meeting. The Contractor shall allow reasonable time for the
Authority’s Compliance Specialist to ensure on-the-job orientation for approved apprentices or
assigned trainees within their first month of employment.
WORK HISTORY: No individual shall be employed as a trainee in any trade and/or work
classification in which such person has successfully completed a training course providing
journeyworker status in the same trade or work classification, or in which such person has been
gainfully employed as a journeyworker by virtue of informal on-the-job training. Detection of
individuals in the above categories may be accomplished by including appropriate questions on
employee application forms, inquiries to the Authority’s Compliance Specialist, checking
personal references, or by other suitable means. Regardless of the method used, the Contractor
shall document the finding for each indentured apprentice or trainee provided training under this
requirement. A copy of the finding shall be given to the Authority’s Compliance Specialist. In
the case of indentured apprentices, evidence of indentureship in a registered approved
apprenticeship program shall also be submitted.
SUBCONTRACTING: In the event the Contractor subcontracts a portion of the contract work,
the Contractor shall ensure the requirements of this Training Special Provision are physically
incorporated in such subcontracts to ensure the workforce utilization by the Subcontractor meets
the goals for minorities and women employment and training, either independently or in
combination with the prime Contractor’s workforce. The Contractor must determine the hours of
training, if any, and in which trade or work classification, minorities or women indentured
apprentices or trainees are to be trained by the Subcontractor(s). However, the Contractor shall
retain the primary responsibility for meeting the training requirements of this Training Special
Provision. Subcontractors are herewith advised that disregard of these requirements may result in
the Authority either rescinding approval of or disapproving their use on subsequent Authority
contracts.
TRAINING PROGRAMS: The minimum length, type of training, and rate of pay for the trade
or the work classification of the trade will be specified in the training program approved or
sanctioned by the New York State Department of Labor.
Where training is to be provided under this Training Special Provision, the Contractor shall
obtain acceptance or approval of the training program to be used, and the starting time for
training, prior to commencing training. The Contractor shall provide on-the-job training directed
toward developing journeyworkers in the trade, or work classification(s) of the trade, involved.
To the extent the work involved on the contract permits, such training should include all phases
and facets of a trade, or work classification of a trade, to satisfy usual construction industry
requirements for continued or future employment therein.
It is the intent of this Training Special Provision that training will be provided in construction
trades rather than clerical type positions. Training may be permitted, in unique circumstances, in
lower level management positions such as office engineers, where the training is oriented toward
construction related activities. Some off-site training is permissible as long as the training is an
integral part of an approved training program and does not comprise a significant part of an
overall training program. Both off-site and lower level management training are subject to the
Authority’s approval.

122
TRAINEE WAGES: An employee on any New York State Public Works Contract must be
paid the full journeyperson prevailing wage unless such employee is individually registered in an
approved and registered New York State Department of Labor Apprenticeship Program.
It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ascertain the status of any employee utilized to satisfy
the trainee requirements under this contract, and to ensure that all New York State Department of
Labor apprenticeship requirements are met.
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. 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 journeyworker wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than
full benefits for apprentices.
DURATION OF TRAINING: Once an indentured apprentice is approved or a trainee is

assigned to the contract under the Training Special Provision, that individual shall be trained in
the designed trade throughout the duration of the contract whenever such trade is in use on the
contract until the trainee or apprentice has completed the approved training program. Where
training is provided under a multiphase apprenticeship or training program, it is expected that
training will be provided continually through all phases to the extent that opportunities for such
training exist in the work under contract. Upon satisfactory completion of a phase of training
under a multiphase training program, if further appropriate and required training is not available
and work in the work classification of the completed phase is available, the minority or woman
indentured apprentice or trainee shall continue employment, and be compensated at the prevailing
journeyworker wage rate for such work. Hours of employment as a journeyworker described
above will not be credited toward training hours required by the approved training or
apprenticeship program.
If an indentured apprentice or trainee is terminated before completion of the contract for any
reason other than seasonal lay-off or completion of work in that trade, the Contractor shall hold a
counseling session with the Authority's Compliance Specialist and the individual to explain the
reasons for termination. Documentation that the counseling session was held and the reasons for
termination shall be given to the Authority's Compliance Specialist.
REQUIRED RECORDS: The Contractor shall provide each minority or woman trained under
this provision with a certification showing the type and length of training satisfactorily
completed. In addition, the Contractor shall keep records on the job sit indicating the nature and
hours of training provided to each trainee or indentured apprentice and furnish weekly reports
documenting performance under this Training Special Provision to the Project Engineer.
No measurement will be made of training provided to indentured apprentices or trainees for

whom no work history has been provided to the Project Engineer. In addition, no measurement
will be made of training provided to apprentices for whom no evidence of indentureship in a
registered apprenticeship program has been provided to the Project Engineer.
4 of 5
123
NO PAYMENT FOR TRAINING: No payment will be made for the training required of the
Contractor under this Training Special Provision. The required training is labor cost which is
included in the lump sum bid by the Contractor for the items of work comprising the contract.
(1) Journeyworker means a person who is capable of performing all the duties
within a trade or a given work classification of a trade.
TRAINEE/APPRENTICESHIP NOTICE
Notwithstanding any of the provisions under the contract section entitled TRAINING SPECIAL
PROVISION, especially subsections entitled Training Programs and Trainee Wages, dealing with
approved and/or sanctioned programs and graduated percentage wages, the Contractor is advised
that all requirements for Apprenticeships (including all manner and form of traineeships and skill
programs) are under the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Labor, Job
Service and Training Division, Albany Apprentice Training Central Office, Bldg. 12, Room 586,
State Office Building Campus, Albany, NY 12240.
An employee on any New York State Public Works Contract must be paid the full, journeyperson
prevailing wage unless such employee is individually registered in an approved and registered
NYS Department of Labor Apprenticeship Program.
This law is applicable even on Federal-aided contracts as long as any State money is involved,
and even if an employee might otherwise be acceptable as a trainee in an approved and
sanctioned New York State Department of Transportation and/or Federal Highway
Administration training program.
Labor Apprenticeship requirements are met.
Labor Apprenticeship requirements are met.
Unless such employees are individually registered in a New York State Department of Labor
approved and registered Apprenticeship Program, they must be paid the full, prevailing
journeyperson wage, not the graduated, trainee wage set forth in the section TRAINING
SPECIAL PROVISIONS of the contract.

Department of Transportation and the Federal Government in carrying out equal employment
opportunity obligations and in their review of his/her activities under the contract.
2. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY POLICY
The Contractor will accept as operating policy the following statement which is designed to further the
provision of equal opportunity to all persons without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, or national
origin, and to promote the full realization of equal employment opportunity through a positive continuing
program.
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, or national origin. Such action shall
include: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or
termination; rates of payor other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including
apprenticeship, pre-apprenticeship and/or on-the-job training.
3. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY OFFICER
The Contractor will designate and make known to the New York State Thruway Authority contracting
officers an Equal Employment Opportunity Officer (hereinafter referred to as the EEO Officer) who will
have the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively administering and promoting an active
Contractor program of equal employment opportunity and who must be assigned adequate authority and
responsibility to do so.
4. DISSEMINATION OF POLICY

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 equal employment
opportunity policy and contractual responsibilities to provide equal employment opportunity in
each grade and classification of employment. To insure that the above agreement will be met, the
following actions will be taken as a minimum:
(I) Periodic meetings of supervisory and personnel office employees will be conducted
before the start of work and then not less than once every six months, at which time the
Contractor's equal employment opportunity policy and its implementation will be

NON-FA AFFIRMATIVE ACTION REQIDREMENTS

(2) All new supervisory or personnel office employees will be given a thorough
indoctrination by the EEO Officer or other lrnowledgeable company official covering all
major aspects of the Contractor' s equal employment opportunity obligations within thirty
days following their reporting for duty with the Contractor.
(3) All personnel who are engaged in direct recruitment for the project will be instructed by
the EEO Officer or appropriate company official in the Contractor's procedures for
locating and hiring minority group employees.
b. In order to make the Contractor's equal employment opportunity policy lrnown to all employees,
prospective employees and potential sources of employees, i.e., schools, employment agencies,
labor units (where appropriate), college placement officers, etc., the Contractor will take the
following actions:

b. 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
minority group applicants, including, but not limited to, State employment agencies, schools,
colleges and minority group organizations. To meet this requirement, the Contractor' s EEO
Officer will identify SOurces of potential minority group employees, and establish with such
identified sources procedures whereby minority group applicants may be referred to the
Contractor for employment consideration.
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 permits the Contractor's compliance with equal employment opportunity contract
proVlslOns. (The U.S. Department of Labor has held that where implementation of such
agreements have the effect of discriminating against minorities or women, or obligates the
Contractor to do the same, such implementation violates Executive Order 11246, as amended.)
c. The Contractor will encourage present employees to refer minority group applicants for
employment by posting appropriate notices or bulletins in areas accessible to all such employees.
In addition, information and procedures with regard to referring minority group applicants will be
discussed with employees.

General Provisions of Laws Covering Workers on Article 8 Public Work Contracts
Introduction
The Labor Law requires public work contractors and subcontractors to pay laborers, workers, or mechanics employed in
the performance of a public work contract not less than the prevailing rate of wage and supplements (fringe benefits) in the
locality where the work is performed.
Responsibilities of the Department of Jurisdiction

A Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) includes a state department, agency, board or commission: a county,
city, town or village; a school district, board of education or board of cooperative educational services; a sewer, water, fire,
improvement and other district corporation; a public benefit corporation; and a public authority awarding a public work
contract.
The Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) awarding a public work contract MUST obtain a Prevailing Rate
Schedule listing the hourly rates of wages and supplements due the workers to be employed on a public work project.
This schedule may be obtained by completing and forwarding a "Request for wage and Supplement Information" form (PW
39) to the Bureau of Public Work. The Prevailing Rate Schedule MUST be included in the specifications for the contract to
be awarded and is deemed part of the public work contract.
Upon the awarding of the contract, the law requires that the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) furnish the
following information to the Bureau: the name and address of the contractor, the date the contract was let and the
approximate dollar value of the contract. To facilitate compliance with this provision of the Labor Law, a copy of the
Department's "Notice of Contract Award" form (PW 16) is provided with the original Prevailing Rate Schedule.
The Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) is required to notify the Bureau of the completion or cancellation of
any public work project. The Department's PW 200 form is provided for that purpose.
Both the PW 16 and PW 200 forms are available for completion online.
Hours
No laborer, worker, or mechanic in the employ of a contractor or subcontractor engaged in the performance of any public
work project shall be permitted to work more than eight hours in any day or more than five days in any week, except in
cases of extraordinary emergency. The contractor and the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) may apply to
the Bureau of Public Work for a dispensation permitting workers to work additional hours or days per week on a particular
public work project. There are very few exceptions to this rule. Complete information regarding these exceptions is
available on the "4 Day / 10 Hour Work Schedule" form (PW 30.1).
Wages and Supplements

The wages and supplements to be paid and/or provided to laborers, workers, and mechanics employed on a public work
project shall be not less than those listed in the current Prevailing Rate Schedule for the locality where the work is
performed. If a prime contractor on a public work project has not been provided with a Prevailing Rate Schedule, the
contractor must notify the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) who in turn must request an original Prevailing
Rate Schedule form the Bureau of Public Work. Requests may be submitted by: mail to NYSDOL, Bureau of Public Work,
State Office Bldg. Campus, Bldg. 12, Rm. 130, Albany, NY 12240; Fax to Bureau of Public Work (518) 485-1870; or
electronically at the NYSDOL website www.labor.ny.gov.
Upon receiving the original schedule, the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) is REQUIRED to provide
complete copies to all prime contractors who in turn MUST, by law, provide copies of all applicable county schedules to
each subcontractor and obtain from each subcontractor, an affidavit certifying such schedules were received. If the original
schedule expired, the contractor may obtain a copy of the new annual determination from the NYSDOL website
www.labor.ny.gov.
The Commissioner of Labor makes an annual determination of the prevailing rates. This determination is in effect from
July 1st through June 30th of the following year. The annual determination is available on the NYSDOL website
www.labor.ny.gov.
Payrolls and Payroll Records

Contractors and subcontractors are required to establish, maintain, and preserve for not less than six (6) years,
contemporaneous, true, and accurate payroll records. Payrolls must show the following information for each person
employed on a public work project: Name, Address, Last 4 Digits of Social Security Number, Classification(s) in which the
worker was employed, Hourly wage rate(s) paid, Supplements paid or provided, and Daily and weekly number of hours
worked in each classification.
140
The filing of payrolls to the Department of Jurisdiction is a condition of payment. Every contractor and subcontractor shall
submit to the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency), within thirty (30) days after issuance of its first payroll and
every thirty (30) days thereafter, a transcript of the original payrolls, subscribed and affirmed as true under penalty of
perjury. The original payrolls or transcripts must be maintained for a period of at least (5) years, by the Department of
Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency), from the project's date of completion. The Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting
Agency) shall collect, review for facial validity, and maintain such payrolls.
In addition, the Commissioner of Labor may require contractors to furnish, with ten (10) days of a request, payroll records
sworn to as their validity and accuracy for public work and private work. Payroll records include, by are not limited to time
cards, work description sheets, proof that supplements were provided, cancelled payroll checks and payrolls. Failure to
provide the requested information within the allotted ten (10) days will result in the withholding of up to 25% of the
contract, not to exceed $100,000.00. If the contractor or subcontractor does not maintain a place of business in New York
State and the amount of the contract exceeds $25,000.00, payroll records and certifications must be kept on the project
worksite.
The prime contractor is responsible for any underpayments of prevailing wages or supplements by any subcontractor.
All contractors or their subcontractors shall provide to their subcontractors a copy of the Prevailing Rate Schedule
specified in the public work contract as well as any subsequently issued schedules. A failure to provide these schedules
by a contractor or subcontractor is a violation of Article 8, Section 220-a of the Labor Law.
All subcontractors engaged by a public work project contractor or its subcontractor, upon receipt of the original schedule
and any subsequently issued schedules, shall provide to such contractor a verified statement attesting that the
subcontractor has received the Prevailing Rate Schedule and will pay or provide the applicable rates of wages and
supplements specified therein. (See NYS Labor Laws, Article 8 . Section 220-a).
Determination of Prevailing Wage and Supplement Rate Updates Applicable to All Counties
The wages and supplements contained in the annual determination become effective July 1st whether or not the new
determination has been received by a given contractor. Care should be taken to review the rates for obvious errors. Any
corrections should be brought to the Department's attention immediately. It is the responsibility of the public work
contractor to use the proper rates. If there is a question on the proper classification to be used, please call the district
office located nearest the project. Any errors in the annual determination will be corrected and posted to the NYSDOL
website on the first business day of each month. Contractors are responsible for paying these updated rates as well,
retroactive to July 1st.
When you review the schedule for a particular occupation, your attention should be directed to the dates above the
column of rates. These are the dates for which a given set of rates is effective. To the extent possible, the Department
posts rates in its possession that cover periods of time beyond the July 1st to June 30th time frame covered by a
particular annual determination. Rates that extend beyond that instant time period are informational ONLY and may be
updated in future annual determinations that actually cover the then appropriate July 1st to June 30th time period.
Withholding of Payments
When a complaint is filed with the Commissioner of Labor alleging the failure of a contractor or subcontractor to pay or
provide the prevailing wages or supplements, or when the Commissioner of Labor believes that unpaid wages or
supplements may be due, payments on the public work contract shall be withheld from the prime contractor in a sufficient
amount to satisfy the alleged unpaid wages and supplements, including interest and civil penalty, pending a final
determination.
When the Bureau of Public Work finds that a contractor or subcontractor on a public work project failed to pay or provide
the requisite prevailing wages or supplements, the Bureau is authorized by Sections 220-b and 235.2 of the Labor Law to
so notify the financial officer of the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) that awarded the public work contract.
Such officer MUST then withhold or cause to be withheld from any payment due the prime contractor on account of such
contract the amount indicated by the Bureau as sufficient to satisfy the unpaid wages and supplements, including interest
and any civil penalty that may be assessed by the Commissioner of Labor. The withholding continues until there is a final
determination of the underpayment by the Commissioner of Labor or by the court in the event a legal proceeding is
instituted for review of the determination of the Commissioner of Labor.
The Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency) shall comply with this order of the Commissioner of Labor or of the
court with respect to the release of the funds so withheld.
Summary of Notice Posting Requirements

The current Prevailing Rate Schedule must be posted in a prominent and accessible place on the site of the public work
project. The prevailing wage schedule must be encased in, or constructed of, materials capable of withstanding adverse
weather conditions and be titled "PREVAILING RATE OF WAGES" in letters no smaller than two (2) inches by two (2)
inches.
The "Public Work Project" notice must be posted at the beginning of the performance of every public work contract, on
each job site.

employment training centers, notices furnished by the State Division of Human Rights.
Employers liable for contributions under the Unemployment Insurance Law must conspicuously post on the jobsite notices
furnished by the NYS Department of Labor.
Apprentices
Employees cannot be paid apprentice rates unless they are individually registered in a program registered with the NYS
Commissioner of Labor. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyworkers in any craft classification can be no greater
than the statewide building trade ratios promulgated by the Department of Labor and included with the Prevailing Rate
Schedule. An employee listed on a payroll as an apprentice who is not registered as above, must be paid the prevailing
journeyworker's wage rate for the classification of work the employee is actually performing.
NYSDOL Labor Law, Article 8, Section 220-3, require that only apprentices individually registered with the NYS
Department of Labor may be paid apprenticeship rates on a public work project. No other Federal or State Agency of
office registers apprentices in New York State.
Persons wishing to verify the apprentice registration of any person must do so in writing by mail, to the NYSDOL Office of
Employability Development / Apprenticeship Training, State Office Bldg. Campus, Bldg. 12, Albany, NY 12240 or by Fax
to NYSDOL Apprenticeship Training (518) 457-7154. All requests for verification must include the name and social
security number of the person for whom the information is requested.
The only conclusive proof of individual apprentice registration is written verification from the NYSDOL Apprenticeship
Training Albany Central office. Neither Federal nor State Apprenticeship Training offices outside of Albany can provide
conclusive registration information.
It should be noted that the existence of a registered apprenticeship program is not conclusive proof that any person is
registered in that program. Furthermore, the existence or possession of wallet cards, identification cards, or copies of
state forms is not conclusive proof of the registration of any person as an apprentice.
Interest and Penalties

In the event that an underpayment of wages and/or supplements is found:
- Interest shall be assessed at the rate then in effect as prescribed by the Superintendent of Banks pursuant to
section 14-a of the Banking Law, per annum from the date of underpayment to the date restitution is made.
- A Civil Penalty may also be assessed, not to exceed 25% of the total of wages, supplements, and interest due.
Debarment
Any contractor or subcontractor and/or its successor shall be ineligible to submit a bid on or be awarded any public work
contract or subcontract with any state, municipal corporation or public body for a period of five (5) years when:
- Two (2) willful determinations have been rendered against that contractor or subcontractor and/or its successor
within any consecutive six (6) year period.
- There is any willful determination that involves the falsification of payroll records or the kickback of wages or
supplements.
Criminal Sanctions
Willful violations of the Prevailing Wage Law (Article 8 of the Labor Law) may be a felony punishable by fine or
imprisonment of up to 15 years, or both.
Discrimination
No employee or applicant for employment may be discriminated against on account of age, race, creed, color, national
origin, sex, disability or marital status.

national origin discriminate against any citizen of the State of New York who is qualified and available to perform the work
to which the employment relates (NYS Labor Law, Article 8, Section 220-e(a)).
No contractor, subcontractor, nor any person acting on its behalf, shall in any manner, discriminate against or intimidate
any employee on account of race, creed, color, disability, sex, or national origin (NYS Labor Law, Article 8, Section 220-
e(b) ).
142
The Human Rights Law also prohibits discrimination in employment because of age, marital status, or religion.
There may be deducted from the amount payable to the contractor under the contract a penalty of $50.00 for each
calendar day during which such person was discriminated against or intimidated in violation of the provision of the contract
(NYS Labor Law, Article 8, Section 220-e(c) ).
The contract may be cancelled or terminated by the State or municipality. All monies due or to become due thereunder
may be forfeited for a second or any subsequent violation of the terms or conditions of the anti-discrimination sections of
the contract (NYS Labor Law, Article 8, Section 220-e(d) ).
Every employer subject to the New York State Human Rights Law must conspicuously post at its offices, places of
employment, or employment training centers notices furnished by the State Division of Human Rights.
Workers' Compensation
In accordance with Section 142 of the State Finance Law, the contractor shall maintain coverage during the life of the
contract for the benefit of such employees as required by the provisions of the New York State Workers' Compensation
Law.
A contractor who is awarded a public work contract must provide proof of workers' compensation coverage prior to being
allowed to begin work.
The insurance policy must be issued by a company authorized to provide workers' compensation coverage in New York
State. Proof of coverage must be on form C-105.2 (Certificate of Workers' Compensation Insurance) and must name this
agency as a certificate holder.

information page.
The contractor must maintain proof that subcontractors doing work covered under this contract secured and maintained a
workers' compensation policy for all employees working in New York State.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
FOR
CONTRACTORS &
CONTRACTING AGENCIES
Social Security Numbers on Certified Payrolls
The Department of Labor is cognizant of the concerns of the potential for misuse or
inadvertent disclosure of social security numbers. Identity theft is a growing problem
and we are sympathetic to contractors’ concerns with regard to inclusion of this
information on payrolls if another identifier will suffice.
For these reasons, the substitution of the use of the last four digits of the social
security number on certified payrolls submitted to contracting agencies on public
work projects is now acceptable to the Department of Labor.
NOTE: This change does not affect the Department’s

ability to request and receive the entire social
security number from employers during the course
of its public work / prevailing wage investigations.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PUBLIC WORK ENFORCEMENT FUND
Budget Policy & Reporting Manual
B-610
Public Work Enforcement Fund
effective date December 7, 2005
1. Purpose and Scope:

This Item describes the Public Work Enforcement Fund (the Fund, PWEF) and its
relevance to State agencies and public benefit corporations engaged in construction or
reconstruction contracts, maintenance and repair, and announces the recently-enacted
increase to the percentage of the dollar value of such contracts that must be deposited into
the Fund. This item also describes the roles of the following entities with respect to the
Fund:
- New York State Department of Labor (DOL),

- The Office of the State of Comptroller (OSC), and
- State agencies and public benefit corporations.
2. Background and Statutory References:

DOL uses the Fund to enforce the State's Labor Law as it relates to contracts for
construction or reconstruction, maintenance and repair, as defined in subdivision two of
Section 220 of the Labor Law. State agencies and public benefit corporations participating
in such contracts are required to make payments to the Fund.
Chapter 511 of the Laws of 1995 (as amended by Chapter 513 of the Laws of 1997,
Chapter 655 of the Laws of 1999, Chapter 376 of the Laws of 2003 and Chapter 407 of the
Laws of 2005) established the Fund.
3. Procedures and Agency Responsibilities:

The Fund is supported by transfers and deposits based on the value of contracts for
construction and reconstruction, maintenance and repair, as defined in subdivision two of
Section 220 of the Labor Law, into which all State agencies and public benefit corporations
enter.
Chapter 407 of the Laws of 2005 increased the amount required to be provided to this fund
to .10 of one-percent of the total cost of each such contract, to be calculated at the time
agencies or public benefit corporations enter into a new contract or if a contract is amended.
The provisions of this bill became effective August 2, 2005.
146
To all State Departments, Agency Heads and Public Benefit Corporations

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PUBLIC WORK ENFORCEMENT FUND
OSC will report to DOL on all construction-related ("D") contracts approved during the
month, including contract amendments, and then DOL will bill agencies the appropriate

contracts are exempt and so note on the bill submitted back to DOL. For any instance
where an agency is unsure if a contract is or is not exempt, they can call the Bureau of
Public Work at the number noted below for a determination. Payment by check or journal
voucher is due to DOL within thirty days from the date of the billing. DOL will verify the
amounts and forward them to OSC for processing.
For those contracts which are not approved or administered by the Comptroller, monthly
reports and payments for deposit into the Public Work Enforcement Fund must be provided
to the Administrative Finance Bureau at the DOL within 30 days of the end of each month
or on a payment schedule mutually agreed upon with DOL.

benefit corporation;
- State agency or public benefit corporation contact and
phone number;
- Name and address of contractor receiving the award;
- Contract number and effective dates;
- Contract amount and PWEF assessment charge (if
contract amount has been amended, reflect increase or
decrease to original contract and the adjustment in the
PWEF charge); and

New York State Department of Labor
Required Notice under Article 25-B of the Labor Law
ATTENTION ALL EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS:

YOU ARE COVERED BY THE
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY FAIR PLAY ACT
The law says that you are an employee unless:
• You are free from direction and control in performing your job AND
• You perform work that is not part of the usual work done by the business that hired you AND
• You have an independently established business
Your employer cannot consider you to be an independent contractor unless all three of these facts
apply to your work.
IT IS AGAINST THE LAW FOR AN EMPLOYER TO MISCLASSIFY EMPLOYEES AS

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS OR PAY EMPLOYEES OFF-THE-BOOKS.
Employee rights. If you are an employee:

• You are entitled to state and federal worker protections such as
o unemployment benefits, if unemployed through no fault of your own, able to work, and
otherwise qualified
o workers’ compensation benefits for on-the-job injuries
o payment for wages earned, minimum wage, and overtime (under certain conditions)
o prevailing wages on public work projects
o the provisions of the National Labor Relations Act and
o a safe work environment
• It is a violation of this law for employers to retaliate against anyone who asserts their rights
under the law. Retaliation subjects an employer to civil penalties, a private lawsuit or both.
Independent Contractors: If you are an independent contractor:

• You must pay all taxes required by New York State and Federal Law.
Penalties for paying off-the-books or improperly treating employees as independent contractors:
• Civil Penalty First Offense: up to $2,500 per employee.

fraud and violations are taken seriously and you can remain anonymous.

Requir ements for OSHA 10 Compliance
Chapter 282 of the Laws of 2007, codified as Labor Law 220-h took effect on July
18, 2008. The statute provides as follows:
The advertised specifications for every contract for public work of $250,000.00 or
more must contain a provision requiring that every worker employed in the
performance of a public work contract shall be certified as having completed an
OSHA 10 safety training course. The clear intent of this provision is to require that
all employees of public work contractors, required to be paid prevailing rates, receive
such training “prior to the performing any work on the project.”
The Bureau will enforce the statute as follows:
All contractors and sub contractors must attach a copy of proof of completion of the
OSHA 10 course to the first certified payroll submitted to the contracting agency and
on each succeeding payroll where any new or additional employee is first listed.
Proof of completion may include but is not limited to:
• Copies of bona fide course completion card (Note: Completion cards do not have
an expiration date.)
• Training roster, attendance record of other documentation from the certified
trainer pending the issuance of the card.
• Other valid proof
**A certification by the employer attesting that all employees have completed such a
course is not sufficient proof that the course has been completed.
Any questions regarding this statute may be directed to the New York State
Department of Labor, Bureau of Public Work at 518-485-5696.

Prevailing Wage Rates for 07/01/2018 - 06/30/2019 Published by the New York State Department of Labor
Last Published on Feb 01 2019 PRC Number 2019002259
Introduction to the Prevailing Rate Schedule
Information About Prevailing Rate Schedule

This information is provided to assist you in the interpretation of particular requirements for each classification of worker contained in the
attached Schedule of Prevailing Rates.
Classification
It is the duty of the Commissioner of Labor to make the proper classification of workers taking into account whether the work is heavy and
highway, building, sewer and water, tunnel work, or residential, and to make a determination of wages and supplements to be paid or
provided. It is the responsibility of the public work contractor to use the proper rate. If there is a question on the proper classification to be
used, please call the district office located nearest the project. District office locations and phone numbers are listed below.
Prevailing Wage Schedules are issued separately for "General Construction Projects" and "Residential Construction Projects" on a county-
by-county basis.
General Construction Rates apply to projects such as: Buildings, Heavy & Highway, and Tunnel and Water & Sewer rates.
Residential Construction Rates generally apply to construction, reconstruction, repair, alteration, or demolition of one family, two family, row
housing, or rental type units intended for residential use.
Some rates listed in the Residential Construction Rate Schedule have a very limited applicability listed along with the rate. Rates for
occupations or locations not shown on the residential schedule must be obtained from the General Construction Rate Schedule. Please
contact the local Bureau of Public Work office before using Residential Rate Schedules, to ensure that the project meets the required criteria.
Payrolls and Payroll Records

Contractors and subcontractors are required to establish, maintain, and preserve for not less that six (6) years, contemporaneous, true, and
accurate payroll records.
Every contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the Department of Jurisdiction (Contracting Agency), within thirty (30) days after issuance
of its first payroll and every thirty (30) days thereafter, a transcript of the original payrolls, subscribed and affirmed as true under penalty of
perjury.
Paid Holidays
Paid Holidays are days for which an eligible employee receives a regular day's pay, but is not required to perform work. If an employee
works on a day listed as a paid holiday, this remuneration is in addition to payment of the required prevailing rate for the work actually
performed.
Overtime
At a minimum, all work performed on a public work project in excess of eight hours in any one day or more than five days in any workweek is
overtime. However, the specific overtime requirements for each trade or occupation on a public work project may differ. Specific overtime
requirements for each trade or occupation are contained in the prevailing rate schedules.
Overtime holiday pay is the premium pay that is required for work performed on specified holidays. It is only required where the employee
actually performs work on such holidays.
The applicable holidays are listed under HOLIDAYS: OVERTIME. The required rate of pay for these covered holidays can be found in the
OVERTIME PAY section listings for each classification.
Supplemental Benefits
Particular attention should be given to the supplemental benefit requirements. Although in most cases the payment or provision of
supplements is straight time for all hours worked, some classifications require the payment or provision of supplements, or a portion of the
supplements, to be paid or provided at a premium rate for premium hours worked. Supplements may also be required to be paid or provided
on paid holidays, regardless of whether the day is worked. The Overtime Codes and Notes listed on the particular wage classification will
indicate these conditions as required.
Effective Dates
When you review the schedule for a particular occupation, your attention should be directed to the dates above the column of rates. These
are the dates for which a given set of rates is effective. The rate listed is valid until the next effective rate change or until the new annual
determination which takes effect on July 1 of each year. All contractors and subcontractors are required to pay the current prevailing rates
of wages and supplements. If you have any questions please contact the Bureau of Public Work or visit the New York State Department of
Labor website (www.labor.state.ny.us) for current wage rate information.
Apprentice Training Ratios
The following are the allowable ratios of registered Apprentices to Journey-workers.
For example, the ratio 1:1,1:3 indicates the allowable initial ratio is one Apprentice to one Journeyworker. The Journeyworker must be in
place on the project before an Apprentice is allowed. Then three additional Journeyworkers are needed before a second Apprentice is
allowed. The last ratio repeats indefinitely. Therefore, three more Journeyworkers must be present before a third Apprentice can be hired,
and so on.
Please call Apprentice Training Central Office at (518) 457-6820 if you have any questions.

actions taken to comply with the M/WBE goals of the contract (see also §109-06 Contract
Payments) and the value of the work done equals 5% of the contract amount or $1,000,

of the work performed in two successive weeks is more than $100,000 or (b) the
Chairman of the Authority deems it to be for the best interest of the Authority to do so.
When a performance bond is approved, 5% shall be retained from each progress
payment or estimate until final acceptance of the work.
ARTICLE 8. NO PAYMENT DUE TO CONTRACTOR'S NON-COMPLIANCE. It is further

agreed that so long as any lawful or proper direction concerning the work or material given
by the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering of the New York State Thruway
Authority, or his/her representative, shall remain uncomplied with, the Contractor shall not
be entitled to have any estimate made for the purpose of payment, nor shall any estimate
be rendered on account of work done or material furnished until such lawful or proper
direction aforesaid has been fully and satisfactorily complied with.
ARTICLE 9. FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF WORK. When in the opinion of the Thruway

Division Director, a Contractor has fully performed the work under the contract, the
Thruway Division Director shall recommend to the Chief Engineer, Department of
Engineering of the New York State Thruway Authority, the acceptance of the work so
completed. If the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering accepts the
recommendation of the Thruway Division Director, he/she shall thereupon by letter notify
the Contractor of such acceptance, and similarly to Subdivision 7, section 38 of the
Highway Law, release up to 70% of the money held as retainage. Copies of such
acceptance shall be sent to other interested parties. Prior to final acceptance of the work
by the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering of the New York State Thruway
Authority or a designee, the contract work may be inspected, accepted and approved by
other agencies and/or municipalities who will have jurisdiction of the work after final
acceptance.
Final acceptance shall be final and conclusive except for defects not readily
ascertainable by the New York State Thruway Authority, actual or constructive, fraud,
gross mistakes amounting to fraud or other errors which the Contractor knew or should
have known about as well as the New York State Thruway Authority's rights under any
warranty or guarantee. Final acceptance may be revoked by the New York State
Thruway Authority at any time prior to the issuance of the final check, upon the New York
State Thruway Authority's discovery of such defects, mistakes, fraud or errors in the
work.
ARTICLE 10. FINAL PAYMENT. After the final acceptance of the work, the Engineer
shall prepare a final agreement of the work performed and the materials placed and shall
compute the value of such work and materials under and according to the terms of the
contract. This agreement shall be certified, as to its correctness, by the Engineer. Upon
approval of such final agreement by the Director, Office of Construction Management, it
shall be submitted to the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering for final approval.
The right, however, is hereby reserved to the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering
to reject the whole or any portion of the final agreement, should the said certificate of the
Engineer be found or known to be inconsistent with the terms of the agreement or
otherwise improperly given. All certificates, upon which partial payments may have been
5/09
169
made being merely estimates, shall be subject to correction in the final certificate or final
agreement.
ARTICLE 11. RIGHT TO SUSPEND WORK AND CANCEL CONTRACT. It is further

mutually agreed that if at any time during the prosecution of the work the Authority shall
determine that the work upon the contract is not being performed according to the contract
or for the best interest of the Authority, the execution of the work by the Contractor may be
temporarily suspended by the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering, who may then
proceed with the work under its own direction in such manner as will accord with the
contract specifications and be for the best interests of the Authority; or he/she may
terminate the contractor's employment under the contract while it is in progress, and
thereupon proceed with the work, in affirmance of the contract, by contract negotiated or
publicly let, by the use of its own forces, by calling upon the surety to complete the work in
accordance with the plans and specifications or by a combination of any such methods; or
he/she may cancel the contract and either readvertise and relet in accordance with the
provisions of Section 38 of the Highway Law, or complete the work under its own direction
in such manner as will accord with the contract specifications and be for the interests of the
Authority; any excess in the cost of completing the contract beyond the price for which it
was originally awarded shall be charged to and paid by the Contractor failing to perform the
work or its surety; all in pursuance of the provisions of Section 40 of the Highway Law.
Whenever the New York State Thruway Authority determines to suspend or stop
work under the contract, a written notice sent by mail to the Contractor at its address and to
the sureties at their respective addresses, shall be sufficient notice of its action in the
premises.
The Thruway Authority reserves the right to terminate this contract in the event that
the certification provided by the Contractor in regard to compliance with New York State
Finance Law Section 139-j and 139-k was intentionally false or intentionally incomplete.
ARTICLE 12. DETERMINATION AS TO VARIANCES. In any case of any ambiguity in the

plans, specifications or maps, or between any of them, the matter must be immediately
submitted to the Chief Engineer, Department of Engineering, who shall adjust the same,
and his/her decision in relation thereto shall be final and conclusive upon the parties.
ARTICLE 13. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This agreement shall bind the successors,
assigns and representatives of the parties hereto.

corporation has participated, is participating or shall participate in an international boycott in
violation of the provisions of the United States Export Administration Act of 1969, as
amended, or the United States Export Administration Act of 1979, or the effective
Regulations of the United States Department of Commerce promulgated under either act.
