OBJECTIVE: To approve the selection committee’s ranking of RPS No. 19-7639R and authorize staff to negotiate an agreement to engage professional Construction Engineering and Inspection (“CEI”) services for the Gator Canal Bridge Replacement Project (bridge Number 030136). CONSIDERATIONS: The existing bridge foundations of the Gator Canal Bridge (the “bridge”) are a combination of concrete and timber piles generally of unknown depth. The bridge is experiencing exponential timber pile decay. The primary objective of this project is to replace the bridge as soon as possible, while limiting ancillary work to only what is necessary and/or required to replace the bridge, while providing safe roadway approaches according to applicable codes, guidelines, regulations and permitting agency requirements. On October 9, 2019, the Procurement Services Division released notices of RPS No. 19 -7639, CEI Services for Gator Canal Bridge Replacement (Bridge Number 030160). The County notified 18,157 firms, 101 firms viewed/downloaded the bid information, and staff received two proposals by the November 26, 2019 deadline. Staff cancelled the solicitation on December 11, 2019, due to only receiving two proposals. On December 20, 2019, the Procurement Services Division released notices of RPS No. 19-7639R, CEI Services for Gator Canal Bridge Replacement (Bridge Number 030160). The County notified 16,753 firms, 41 firms viewed/downloaded the bid information, and staff received three proposals by the January 10, 2020 deadline. All three proposers were found to be responsive and responsible. The selection committee met on February 4, 2020, and as described in step 1 of the solicitation documents, the committee scored each of the proposals and shortlisted the following top three firms to move on to step 2: Hardesty & Hanover Construction Services, LLC; AE Engineering, Inc. and PSA Constructors, Inc. d/b/a PSA Management, Inc. After being shortlisted, PSA Constructors, Inc. d/b/a PSA Management, Inc., withdrew from step 2 presentations. On February 14, 2020, the selection committee reconvened for the step 2 presentations and ranked the firms as follows: Respondents: Company Name City County State Final Ranking Responsive/Responsible Hardesty & Hanover Construction Services, LLC Port Charlotte Charlotte FL 1 Yes/Yes AE Engineering, Inc.

PLACE OF RPS OPENING: Procurement Services Division 3295 Tamiami Trail East, Bldg. C-2 Naples, FL 34112 All proposals shall be submitted online via the Collier County Procurement Services Division Online Bidding System: https://www.bidsync.com/bidsync-cas/ INTRODUCTION As requested by the Transportation Engineering Division (hereinafter, the “Division or Department”), the Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division (hereinafter, “County”) has issued this Request for Professional Services (hereinafter, “RPS”) with the intent of obtaining proposals from interested and qualified Consultants in accordance with the terms, conditions and specifications stated or attached. The Consultant, at a minimum, must achieve the requirements of the Specifications or Scope of Work stated. The results of this solicitation may be used by other County departments once awarded according to the Board of County Commissioners Procurement Ordinance, as amended. Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services have historically been added to the construction phase of transportation projects. The County typically performs CEI services with either in-house forces or by outsourcing. CEI work involves providing oversight for the County, ensuring that the contractor builds the project in reasonable conformity with the plans, specifications, and special provisions for the Construction Contract. The CEI firm is the liaison between the County and the Contractor to observe the Contractor's work to determine the progress and quality of the work. The CEI Consultant identifies discrepancies, reports significant discrepancies to the County, and directs the Contractor to correct such observed discrepancies. Historically, County departments have spent approximately 10% to 12% of the total construction contract for CEI services; however, this may not be indicative of future buying patterns. BACKGROUND CEI services are required for the replacement of the bridge over Gator Canal along Immokalee Rd. (Bridge No. 030160), as it has been deemed functionally obsolete. This bridge is over drainage canals, and some have a permanent pool year round. The services include, but are not limited to, administering the construction contract, providing inspections, monitoring, and material sampling and testing. In addition, the services shall include monitoring off-site activities and fabrication of structural elements, and performing underwater inspections for active bridge construction projects; monitoring and inspecting the Contractor's Work Zone Traffic Control Plan and reviewing modifications to the Work Zone Traffic Control Plan, in accordance with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) procedures; and determining the acceptability of all materials and completed work items on the basis of either test results or by verification of a certification. TERM OF CONTRACT County reserves the right to modify this scope during negotiations for budgetary reasons. The contract term, if an award(s) is made, is intended to be for 780 days. The contract term will commence one month before the Contractor's Contract Notice to Proceed is issued and end one month after the Contractor's Contract is terminated. Prices shall remain firm for the initial term of the awarded contract. Surcharges will not be accepted in conjunction with this award, and such charges should be incorporated into the pricing structure. 16.A.23.c Packet Pg. 641 Attachment: 19-7639R Solicitation (11883 : CEI Services for Gator Canal Bridge Replacement) DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK 1.0 PURPOSE: This scope of services describes and defines the Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services which are required for contract administration, inspection, and materials sampling and testing for the construction projects listed below. 2.0 SCOPE: Provide services as defined in this Scope of Services, the referenced Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) manuals, and procedures.

Other projects developing within the geographical area of Collier County may be added at the Division’s discretion. The Consultant must perform to the satisfaction of the Division’s representatives for consideration of additional CEI services. 3.0 LENGTH OF SERVICE: The services for each Construction Contract shall begin upon written notification to proceed by the Division. Track the execution of the Construction Contract such that the Consultant is given timely authorization to begin work. While no personnel shall be assigned until written notification by the Division has been issued, the Consultant shall be ready to assign personnel within two weeks of notification. For the duration of the project, coordinate closely with the Division and Contractor to minimize rescheduling of Consultant activities due to construction delays or changes in scheduling of Contractor activities. For estimating purposes, the Consultant will be allowed an accumulation of thirty (30) calendar days to perform preliminary administrative services prior to the issuance of the Contractor's notice to proceed on the first project and thirty (30) calendar days to demobilize after final acceptance of the last Construction Contract.

We have met with Collier County Design and Construction staff, performed thorough plan reviews of the 60%, 90%, and signed and sealed drawing submittals as well as visited the project site multiple times to evaluate constructability concerns. H&H is a renowned engineering firm with more than 130 years of experience delivering comprehensive solutions to some of the most unique engineering challenges throughout the world. We employ nearly 400 professionals in 23 offices, including a field office in Immokalee, at the corner of Lake Trafford Road and SR 29. With our experience, staffing, and offices, H&H offers the resources of a large firm with the responsiveness of a small one. Our team is led by two local professionals who have a successful work history with Collier County on recent assignments. Steve Nappi, PE, will serve as the Senior Project Engineer (SPE) on this contract. Steve has extensive past bridge experience serving numerous clients and most recently completed two Collier County Bridge projects. His bridge construction experience, successful working relationship with the County and attentiveness to client satisfaction makes him an ideal candidate for the SPE position on this contract. Using his strong managerial skills, we are confident Steve will administer this CEI contract in accordance with the original budget and will work to ensure the delivery of a quality project while meeting time and budget goals. Matt Thomas, PE, who resides in nearby Ave Maria, will serve as the Project Engineer. Matt spent the previous four years working in the Collier County Transportation Division. This in-house experience afforded him the opportunity to gain valuable insight and a thorough understanding of County project management procedures. Matt will bring this knowledge to this assignment which will ensure no learning curve and minimal involvement required from County personnel. This will also relieve the workload of County employees, which we understand to be high at this time. Matt’s past experience as both CEI inspector and County Project Manager, his proximity to the project, and his successful recent completion of three County bridge replacement projects make him perfectly suited for this role. The inspection team will be led by Senior Inspector Elvido (Junior) Tiburcio who has worked on multiple projects in Collier County for the last six years. This experience provides Junior with the knowledge and understanding of county standards and has allowed for a solid working relationship with Collier County employees. The project also afforded Junior the opportunity to work with many divisions in Collier County from Transportation to Traffic Operations. Junior will be supplemented as needed by H&H Inspectors Matt Kalamon, EI, Paul Neptune, and Lucas Benitez. Steve and Matt’s great working relationship on the Vanderbilt Drive bridge replacements and White Boulevard over Cypress Canal bridge replacement project have allowed them to build a team synergy that is unmatched. Adding to the history of our team members working together, Junior worked with Matt on the Collier Boulevard and US 41 Intersection Improvement project, which was a joint participation agreement (JPA) with FDOT and Collier County. This experience and past successful working relationships with Junior coupled with our depth of additional local H&H inspectors adds to the cohesion of our team. H&H will take a proactive partnering approach in managing this contract, which will ensure positive working relationships with the Contractor, identification of issues before they affect the work progress or quality, and allow adherence to the schedule. Our proactive approach to the Gator Canal Bridge project has been highlighted in our plan review findings section and our partnering as evidenced by on-going personal relationships with Contractors after projects are complete. We look forward to being shortlisted so we can elaborate on our team members’ abilities, the plan review findings, and how we plan to minimize change orders during construction. Should you have any questions, please contact Steve by telephone at 239-229-5853 or email at snappi@hardestyhanover.com. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

With this in mind, we formed a team of local professionals possessing both experience in similar projects in Southwest Florida and a history of working together. Our team will be led by two professional engineers who have worked closely together on multiple Collier County projects for the past three years. Steve Nappi, PE, will be in the lead role as Senior Project Engineer (SPE), responsible for the overall performance of the team assigned to this contract and ensuring the successful delivery of a quality bridge to Collier County. Matthew Thomas, PE, will serve as the Project Engineer (PE) responsible for oversight of the inspection staff and subconsultants, and managing the project on a daily basis. The inspection team will be led by Senior Inspector Elvido (Junior) Tiburcio who has worked on multiple projects in Collier County for the last six years. Junior will be supplemented as needed by H&H Inspectors Mateusz (Matt) Kalamon, EI; Paul Neptune; and Lucas Benitez. Steve and Matt’s recent experience on the Vanderbilt Drive Bridges and White Boulevard over Cypress Canal bridge replacement for Collier County has given them a unique perspective and understanding of County procedures. Steve’s role as the SPE on these recent projects and Matt’s role as the Collier County Project Manager gives our team an advantage over the competition and offers the County significant value for this contract. Their experience will allow for minimal involvement from County staff as our team will hit the ground running with no learning curve. Adding to the history of our team members working together, Junior worked with Matt on the Collier Blvd and US 41 Intersection Improvement project, which was a joint participation agreement (JPA) with FDOT and Collier County. Junior gained a vast knowledge and understanding of county standards and created a solid working relationship with Collier County employees under this assignment. The project afforded Junior the ability to work with many divisions in Collier County from Transportation to Traffic Operations. Why H&H  Two Professional Engineers certified in Pile Driving, advanced MOT, scheduled to attend CTCI Level II, and Qualified FDOT Lead Bridge Inspectors through NHI  Matt resides in Ave Maria, which is located four miles from the Gator Canal Bridge.  Extensive Southwest Florida bridge construction experience  Direct history working with and for Collier County  Intimate knowledge of County’s procedures, including acceptance procedures, monthly and final invoice submittals, permit closeout documentation, and change orders. 1-2 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R In addition to their recent similar Collier County project experience, Steve, Matt, and Junior have an impressive resume of projects completed in Southwest Florida that is detailed below. Steve is H&H’s Florida Regional Manager of Construction Services. He has served clients on Southwest Florida projects for the past 14 years and has served in roles as FDOT Project Administrator/Project Manager and CEI PE/SPE on ten bridge contracts. His most notable bridges are the Boca Grande Swing Span for the Gasparilla Island Bridge Authority (GIBA), Matlacha Bascule Bridge for Lee County, and the Marco Island Bridge for FDOT District 1. These signature bridge projects highlight his ability to deliver the most complex structures. Steve’s experience with the County and impressive resume of road and bridge projects managed for the state and local municipalities exclusively in Southwest Florida makes him an ideal candidate for SPE on this contract. Boca Grande Bridge Marco Island Bridge Matlacha Bascule Bridge With seven years of CEI project experience, Matt will serve as the PE assigned to this contract. He has managed several projects in Southwest Florida including the Vanderbilt Drive Bridge Replacements Project, White Boulevard over Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement, and Collier Boulevard and Immokalee Road Intersection Improvement project. These projects required the replacement of five bridges. Matt’s intimate knowledge of on-site field work makes him perfectly suited to serve as the PE. He has a wealth of knowledge and extensive experience running projects for both Collier County and FDOT. This proves invaluable as Collier County uses FDOT specifications for construction projects. With his solid understanding of FDOT specifications and project management, he has the ability to successfully deliver any project assigned. Additionally, working both as a consultant to FDOT and Project Manager for Collier County, Matt has a unique view and understanding of how to deliver quality work while meeting the owner’s needs. Matt has worked closely with staff from several Divisions within Collier County, including Traffic Operations, Road Maintenance, Transportation, and Public Utilities. Our team is certified in Advance Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) and Matt has worked closely with Connie Dean, the County Liaison, in the past to ensure Road Alerts are up to date and accurate for Collier County residents. Junior has been working in the CEI industry in South Florida for the last 12 years. He has served as a Senior Inspector on multiple projects in Collier County including the US 41 and Collier Boulevard Intersection Improvement Project and the Collier Boulevard from Davis Boulevard to Golden Gate Canal Project. These projects required road widening, drainage installation, underground utilities and temporary traffic control plans with several phases. Junior was responsible for monitoring contractors’ daily operations, verifying field work was in accordance with contract documents, and recording accurate quantities for payment on monthly estimates. Through these tasks he worked closely with Collier County Transportation Construction Manager Steve Ritter, prioritizing needs to meet county expectations. These projects required Junior to work closely with Traffic Operations for signal work and Road Maintenance for final completion punch list walk throughs. Matt possesses intimate construction knowledge and has worked closely with Collier County Transportation staff for four years Junior is local, Advanced MOT-certified, and has worked with Collier County staff on previous assignments. 1-3 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R Having worked closely with Transportation staff in the past, our team has extensive knowledge and experience with Collier County’s procedures ranging from invoicing and pay estimates to project closeout documentation. Steve and Matt know what is required from Purchasing for CEI staff and have performed several status reports that are attached with monthly invoices. They also processed several change orders for the County and possess the technical expertise to prepare and process them should they be required for this contract. H&H previously created material tracking spreadsheets saved on share drives to accurately organize sampling and testing of material used on the project. This is significant since the County does not use the FDOT Materials Acceptance Certification (MAC) program. This form of organization helps the CEI, contractor, and County all be aware and up to date with what recent materials have been used in the field and the disposition of their acceptance. Our team’s experience administering contracts in southwest Florida, specifically for Collier County, gives us the knowledge to successfully perform the duties required under this contract. In addition, their previous experience working together on Collier County Contracts has allowed them to build a team synergy that is unmatched. Utilization of Subconsultants The following subconsultants have been added to our team to provide as needed services required under this contract:  Ardaman & Associates will provide materials testing  Bolt Underwater will provide underwater bridge inspections per CPAM chapter 10.6 as required by the RFS  Hyatt Survey will provide surveying services on an as needed basis. Qualifications The qualifications of proposed staffing clearly show our team’s ability to address all facets of construction required under this project. It is important to note that our staff possess certifications above what is required by the contract. Specifically, Steve and Matt both being certified in pile driving is value added as they can assist with pile driving activities without necessitating additional inspectors. Additionally, Steve and Matt have attended and successfully completed the National Highway Institute’s (NHI) Safety Inspection of In-Service Bridges for Professional Engineer’s. This knowledge provides our staff the unique ability to look ahead for potential issues that may affect the life expectancy of the bridge. Our staff will also be able to assist the contractor with their responsibility to monitor the existing structure during construction.

The new bridge was founded on 18-inch square piles with cast-in-place (CIP) caps and a 1-foot, 6-inch CIP deck. The new bridge was constructed wider to accommodate 12-foot travel lanes, 5.5-foot shoulders and 6.5-foot sidewalks. Limited right-of-way necessitated the purchase of temporary/permanent easements so a temporary bridge could be installed allowing traffic to avoid the work area via a diversion. Significant utility relocations were required, including moving overhead electric/communication lines and replacing a Collier County raw water main, which serves 65% of the County’s customers. This project also included extensive drainage replacements with large baffle boxes being installed at the four corners of the bridge. Steve was responsible for oversight of all construction and administrative aspects, including reviewing contract documents; conducting progress meetings; completing progress pay estimates, change orders, and the final estimate package; submitting CEI monthly invoices; reviewing shop drawings; updating submittal logs; producing the final as-builts; managing field activities; and reviewing daily construction reports.

The total bridge replacement length is 678 feet which includes a 219-foot swing span. The fixed portion of the bridge utilizes Florida I-beam girders founded on hammerhead pier caps and cast-in-place footings with 24-inch precast concrete piles. The new swing span has a 224-foot span. “Fish belly” main girders were used to resemble the old bridge. The new swing pivots on 2-foot, 6-inch bronze and steel spherical discs housed in a pivot box. Eccentric wheel end lift assemblies and span locks are located on the rest piers which raise and center the bridge respectively. The project also included the fender system, bridge tender house, and all mechanical and electrical equipment. Included with the bridge replacement was the rehabilitation and repair of bulkhead walls, construction of temporary and permanent mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls, construction of critical temporary sheet pile walls (required for phased construction), and a total of a 1/4 mile of roadway construction. Steve was responsible for all construction and administrative aspects of the new bridge which included review of contract documents and shop drawings; coordinating field inspection of structural, mechanical, and electrical components; assisting in preparation of progress pay estimates; updating shop drawing submittal logs; final as-builts; computation books; and pay item overruns/underruns. CEI SERVICES FOR GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT (BRIDGE NO. 030160) SOLICITATION 19-7639R Section 4: Project Approach, Willingness to Meet Time and Budget Requirements Section 4: Project Approach 4-1 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R PROJECT APPROACH, WILLINGNESS TO MEET TIME AND BUDGET REQUIREMENTS Project Approach Through discussions with County staff prior to the advertisement, we understand this project was anticipated to begin in January 2020. The final plans reference a 180 day contract duration in multiple places while this advertisement is anticipating 780 days. We have created a schedule showing a duration of one year and believe this is obtainable, but have decided to show staffing for an 18 month duration to be conservative. The construction will be phased to maintain two-lane traffic as Immokalee Road is the main route to downtown Naples for the roughly 30,000 Immokalee residents. Maintaining two lanes of traffic is made difficult as the current bridge constructed in 1955 (widened in 1977) has many deficiencies in the timber pile foundations as noted in FDOT bridge inspection reports. These previous inspections and reports listed the bridge foundation as unstable. Our field inspections have made us cognizant of the fact that vehicles are traveling at a high rate of speed, there is a high volume of truck traffic, and work zones/staging areas will be tight. H&H will apply a proactive partnering approach to this project. We will thoroughly review contract documents prior to construction in an attempt to identify issues before they require change orders or rework. The County will realize the value of these reviews from our findings write-up below. Being proactive also occurs during construction by reviewing the specifications and plans in advance of the construction activity being performed and through the use of pre-activity meetings. Our team, from the SPE down to inspectors, will partner with the contractor. This relationship will be built on trust and begins with open communication prior to construction. We will meet with the contractor’s project manager prior to work beginning, share our expectations, and listen to their concerns. We will work with the contractor to achieve the common goal of delivering a successful project to the County. The use of pre-activity meetings will continue to allow expectations to be shared and has successfully assisted in work being performed correctly the first time. We have found that delivery of clear expectations prior to the work beginning reduces conflict between the CEI and contractor—ensuring both parties are not being caught off-guard. To emphasize our proactive approach, our team has reviewed the signed and sealed final plans and visited the job site. Below is a brief description of the more significant findings from the plan reviews and site visits. Findings do not include items discovered during our review of the 60% plans that were addressed in the final signed and sealed set.  GENERAL: There are several quantities within the plans that reference a 180-day contract duration. This advertisement shows a 780-day contract duration. We believe the project can be finished earlier than 780 days but do not anticipate completion before 180 days. The contract duration needs to be set prior to letting to ensure Contractors are aware of the contract duration. Quantities will also have to reflect the appropriate contract time to avoid having overruns which will require change orders. FP&L distribution is located on the north side of the bridge and lines are currently 14 feet from the anticipated location of the new northern most piles. We have contacted FP&L to discuss this distance as a 20-foot clearance is required by OSHA for 230 kV lines. Through our discussions, we understand that the conductors will be relocated 12 feet to the north in November allowing an approximate 28-foot clearance. We will continuously remind the contractor of the safe distance and will read all Utility Work Schedules once made available.  SHEET 3: Gator Slough is not a Florida Outstanding Waterway. We would expect to see 29 NTUs above background acceptable for water quality.  SHEET 4: It has been our experience that the County does not require monthly certification of quantities for MOT items and they are paid under the lump sum item of 102-1. We would like to confirm as overruns to items like signs and barricades (which are common) will require change orders. We have had great success in managing our projects with this philosophy as evidenced by our staff’s projects being completed on time, within budget, and their personal relationships with the contractors continuing once projects are complete 4-2 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R Pay Item 104-11 Floating Turbidity Barrier: Floating Turbidity Barrier only comes in increments of 50 feet, quantity should be adjusted appropriately. EOR should also confirm the length shown as it appears low. Pay Items 107-1 and 2 Litter Removal/Mowing: FDOT spec ties litter removal and mowing to final acceptance. We need to review the contract to determine if these pay items are acceptable referencing final acceptance or if they should be tied to substantial completion. Pay item 630-2-12 Conduit: We can’t find details of pay item 630-2-12 Conduit, Furnish & Install located in the plan set. We see the reference on sheet 7 to relocate existing conduit. Please detail what is to be done here. See comment in bridge section, sheet B1-2.  SHEET 5 Pay Item 536-8-61 Bridge Anchorage Assembly Removal: Bridge anchorage and assemblies are included in removal of guardrail pay item 536-73. Is pay item 536-8-61 required to be shown in the matrix? Excavation quantity shown in the matrix does not match summary of quantity on Sheet 4. Why is there a quantity for temporary asphalt excavation shown? We recommend adding pay item 538-1 Guardrail Reset. This is to bring existing guardrail to current standard (25 inches high) and facilitate shoulder widening and MAP placement. The current guardrail installed height is 21 inches.  SHEET 6: It will be very difficult to leave guardrail while widening the shoulder under it. Implementing the guardrail relocation pay item referenced above will eliminate this concern.  SHEET 18: Does the temporary pavement design need to require subgrade and base rock if it is temporary and will be removed at a later date? Also, what is the purpose of the temporary pavement shown on this sheet?  SHEET B-2 Pay item 400-2-5 Class II Concrete(Substructure): Confirm quantity includes wing walls. Looks to be short 1.1 CY. Pay item 400-9 Bridge Deck Planing and Grooving: Quantity does not appear to include 2-foot portions of approach slab (additional 19.6 SY). Pay item 455-34-5 24-inch Prestressed Concrete Piles: It appears the 24-inch Concrete Pile quantity utilized minimum tips and cutoff elevations to determine the pile length. The piles will likely be driven beyond minimum tip which will result in overruns and a change order to compensate the contractor for the additional quantity. A more reasonable pile length should be estimated to avoid the overruns and change order. Note: FDOT allows overruns to existing pay items. Collier County requires all changes, including overruns, to be processed in a change order. This directive is driving our comment. Pay item 455-143-5 24-Inch Test Piles : The quantity for test piles does not match the pile driving table shown on sheet B1-7. The table on B1-7 shows 180 LF of test piles, the pay item shows 130 LF. Pay item 521-5-13 Concrete Traffic Railing, Bridge 36-Inch Single Slope: The quantity for Traffic Railing reflects the rail extending to the end of approach slabs but plan sheet B1-1 shows it stopping before the approach slab. The EOR needs to confirm the intent and correct the plan sheets.  SHEET B-4: The last general note references the water monitoring equipment owned by SFWMD. The supplemental terms discuss this item on page 4. We need to confirm if the contractor is required to perform or if SFWMD will be performing the work.  SHEET B1-1: The turbidity barrier shown is not a correct installation. We will need additional quantity to correctly install the barrier and relocate during the phases to eliminate a change order for additional length.  SHEET B1-2 The contractor will have to match the existing elevation when pouring the new deck as you can’t have an elevation difference in the longitudinal joint in the middle of a travel lane (Phase 2 sheet B1-3). Conduit is not shown in the barrier wall. We will confirm there is no conduit to be installed in the wall. See comment in Roadway section, sheet 4. 4-3 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R  SHEET B1-3 We have concerns with vibrations on fresh deck concrete. If the 1-inch gap between phases (as shown on sheet B1-3) is utilized, the contractor will be using the existing bridge deck as a form. Vibrations caused from vehicular traffic will be transferred to the green concrete. The middle portion of the existing bridge (shown hatched in phase 3) will be susceptible to settlement due to vibrations caused from nearby pile driving. A note should be added requiring the contractor to provide a plan on how they will monitor and address concerns during construction. We see that this is noted on page 5 of the supplemental terms and conditions but think it should be noted again on the plan set. We believe additional details are required for the temporary bracing or a note making it the contractor’s responsibility to submit a plan.  SHEET B1-4: We are reviewing the sequencing of the temporary shoring and its impact on associated activities. We are not sure if temporary shoring will work here and may need to investigate leaving in place. We are not convinced they can pour the approach slab and later remove the sheets.  SHEET B1-6: Contractor will most likely want test piles to be moved to Phase 1 to get pile driving criteria for all piles. We will work with the Geotechnical engineer to facilitate this request.  SHEET B1-8 The plans should specify expansion material between the cap and deck for all areas not covered by the neoprene bearing pad. We also recommend specifying cover for detail A-A.  SHEET B1-9 Bars 6P01 are shown offset. We believe they should be centered and in both bents, currently only shown for bent 2. Confirm 2-foot splice for 8P01 bars is acceptable. Utilizing 3-foot splice on end bents for 8A01 bars. Confirm 4-inch cover desired for cap bottom cover (section cuts). Should only require 3 inches.  SHEET B1-11: Drawing very difficult to read, consider moving some callouts to the middle of the span to make clearer. Would also like to see cover shown at begin/end spans.  SHEET B1-12 Appears to be an erroneous reference to an 8A01 bar in phase 1. Should be 8A02. Need to see embedment depth of 6A01 bar in section A-A.  SHEET B1-13 Bar 4A01 should have a quantity of 166 and dimension B should be 1-foot 5 inches, Bar 4A02 dimension B should be 1-foot 5 inches Bar 6A01 currently showing type 1. Standard plans call for type 11. Confirm. Bars 4P01 and 4P02 should have a B dimension of 2 feet if assuming 3-inch cover top and bottom. One-foot 11 inches is correct if 4-inch cover is utilized per plan sheet B1-9. 6P01 bars. Plans are only requiring one set. We believe they should be on both intermediate bents. Currently, showing on bent 2 only (see comment on sheet B1-9).

Below is an explanation of how this is accomplished for each contract. Construction Engineering and Inspection Staffing We have prepared a staffing estimate assuming an 18-month duration for construction. As stated in our approach, we believe the project can be completed in this time. We plan on meeting the budget by staffing the job with a full-time Project Engineer and Senior Inspector. The Senior Project Engineer and Administrative Assistant will be in a part-time capacity. Below is our staffing estimate showing a 20-month CEI duration. Steve has excellent contract management skills. Under his leadership, the Vanderbilt Drive Bridge Replacements project returned a significant portion of unused funds back to the County. Also, despite the White Boulevard project extending beyond the allowable contract time, Steve was able to adequately staff the project within the original budget eliminating the need for a change order for extra funds which would have been warranted. Value Added We are offering three value added concepts for this proposal. The first is performing all PIO responsibilities required under this contract with in-house staff, specifically Steve and Matt. This will be an easy feat as there will be minimal public involvement due to there being no residences or businesses located near the remote project location. Steve and Matt have successfully performed these duties on both the Vanderbilt Drive and White Boulevard projects where there were many concerns voiced by residents. They have successfully worked with Connie Dean, Community Liasion, on these two previous projects and will do the same for the Gator Canal bridge. The second is to utilize our staff in Tampa to perform casting yard inspections should they be required by Transportation. Utilizing qualified staff from our Eisenhower Boulevard office eliminates a substantial amount of travel time as staff is located close to the commonly used pre-stress yards in Tampa. The third is our proposed field offices. As stated in criteria 5, we are offering an additional office located at the corner of SR 29 and Lake Trafford Road. Quality Control/Quality Assurance H&H has created a Quality Assurance (QA) plan very different from our competitors. Our comprehensive plan is short enough to be used as guidance during construction for field staff, yet thorough enough to cover all requirements of the contract. This is accomplished through the use of detailed checklists that are completed by the project administrator during construction. Our QA plan reinforces our proactive approach by ensuring staff is receiving deliverables timely and not determining items were missed after the fact. The plan covers all items from pre-, during, and post-construction and internal meetings are held before each phase to make sure all team members’ expectations are understood. The use of our QA plan helps our staff with their responsibilities and keeps the project moving forward by clearly stating contract requirements and assisting to set expectations. 4-6 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R CONSTRUCTION Our team will ensure adherence of the construction schedule and budget by utilizing the steps below: 1. Proactively review documents and field conditions to address issues before they affect the contractor The common theme in our writeup is to be proactive. So how does our team do this? We begin with a thorough review of all contract documents. This includes the contract itself and all contract documents which include, but are not limited to, plans, special provisions, specifications, design standards, utility relocation schedules, and permits. Our team has already displayed this through the plan review findings listed above and the County has realized this proactive approach through plan reviews previously performed by Steve and Matt on the upcoming Palm River Bridge Replacement Project. The findings for these two projects have been provided to the Design Project Managers and shared with the EOR. Our team will also be proactive in reviewing possible overruns to pay items to make adjustments to the final plan set before they are sent out to bid. Through meticulous documentation and a detailed filing system, project closeout documents will easily be delivered to the County along with a quality project. 2. Conduct effective meetings We summarize our findings of items that require attention from the review above and share them with the client at a pre-service meeting. This meeting will also be used to clarify items within our contract to ensure we are meeting the County’s intended expectations. Following the pre-service meeting, a preconstruction meeting will be scheduled with the selected contractor and stakeholders to share pertinent information determined to be appropriate. We will ask very specific questions to understand how the contractor anticipates performing the work and will stay on task in the meeting through the use of a detailed agenda meeting the requirements of the construction project administration manual (CPAM). During construction, weekly progress meetings will be held along with pre-activity meetings targeting new or unique construction activities like pile driving, concrete pours and asphalt paving. These meetings facilitate our proactive approach which helps to reduce claims, time extensions, and change orders by ensuring clear expectations are shared prior to work occurring. This minimizes conflict in the field and results in a quality product being constructed the first time. 3. Oversight from Senior Management Once construction begins, field staff will monitor construction closely ensuring conformance with contract documents, documenting quantities on the appropriate forms and summarizing all work on daily reports of construction. Both Steve and Matt are registered Professional Engineers who spend a substantial amount of time in the field to give the project a global view of the work. As they are not “in the trenches” on a daily basis they are able to see the big picture and assist inspection staff with looking ahead for potential issues. Being in the field also allows for expeditious resolution of issues using an agreed upon escalation matrix. It is common practice for inspection staff to escalate field conflicts to the Project Engineer and Senior Project Engineer. Having Matt and Steve in the field saves time explaining the issues over the phone. 4. Schedule Reviews One of the most important things our team can do is perform schedule reviews. For construction projects, careful review of the critical path method (CPM) schedule is key to ensuring timely completion of the project. This begins when the contractor submits his baseline schedule at the beginning of the project. The baseline will be reviewed to confirm all activities are included and that logic, durations, predecessors, successors, constraints, cost loading, and calendars are appropriate. Items of concern will be shared with the contractor and meetings will be held if necessary, until the baseline schedule can be accepted. Once accepted and construction begins, we will monitor the contractor’s work effort to ensure they align with the schedule. Updated as-built schedules will be reviewed monthly and checked to determine accurate commencement and completion dates have been entered and no other unauthorized changes have been made. For P6 schedules, this will be accomplished through the use of Primavera’s Claim Digger feature, which provides a detailed report of all changes made to the previous update. Steve and Matt both possess Primavera and Microsoft Project licenses allowing them to review contractor submitted schedules in either of these acceptable formats. 4-7 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R Accuracy of the changes will be determined by comparing them to field records and items not confirmed will be sent back to the contractor until an acceptable response is received and the schedule can be accepted. All responses regarding the schedule will be made in writing to the contractor. Keeping the contractor responsible and notifying them when they are not meeting their schedule is a great way to both ensure timely project completion and protect the County in instances of claims. This was an important tool used for the White Boulevard Bridge Replacement project, keeping the contractor accountable for their work. 5. Utilization of Microsoft Teams Our team will implement Microsoft Teams for this project. Microsoft Teams is a next generation SharePoint where users can view documents and enjoy the added features of real time conversations via Skype. Features also include a mobile app to have documents readily available at their fingertips in the field and a calendar for meetings which automatically syncs to their Outlook calendar. The Skype feature will prove invaluable as impromptu meetings can be organized, videos can be shared showing site conditions, and documents can be shared on screen to pinpoint areas of concern quickly with all attendees. We believe these meetings will quickly evolve from a catchy feature to a necessity in delivering timely accurate information to project stakeholders. Guests are added to our user agreement, which means there is no cost for licensure. Past Experience Success Our staff places a high emphasis on cost and time overruns. The allowable threshold on FDOT projects is to keep project overruns within 10% cost and 20% time. Our staff always strives to meet or exceed this threshold by applying our proactive efforts and outside the box thinking to the items above. Through these actions, we are happy to share information on the successful completion of Steve and Matt’s previous projects shown in the chart below: Representative Projects Project Allowable Contract Time Days Used Percent Used Original Dollar Amount Final Dollar Amount Percent Used White Boulevard Over Cypress Canal Bridge Replacement Note: 125 days of LDs were charged to the Contractor for failure to complete the work within allowable contract time 605 730 120.66%$3,474,219.70 $2,649,060.58 76.25% Vanderbilt Drive Bridge Replacements 548 545 99.45%$5,415,914.91 $4,954,758.13 91.47% Immokalee Road & Collier Boulevard Intersection Improvement 585 585 100.00%$7,755,993.95 $6,970,138.09 89.87% US 41 Pedestrian Lighting Project 127 127 100%$443,667.73 $444,943.68 100.29% Gasparilla Island Swing Span Replacement 991 934 94.25%$17,806,520.45 $18,718,505.72 105.12% CEI SERVICES FOR GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT (BRIDGE NO. 030160) SOLICITATION 19-7639R Section 5: Location Section 5: Location 5-1 GATOR CANAL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT CEI SERVICES SOLICITATION 19-7639R Location As we have previously stated, the residences of Matt Thomas, PE, and Steve Nappi, PE, have situated them in locations that will facilitate the effective management of this project. Junior lives in nearby Ft. Myers adding to the team’s local presence. Matt lives in Ave Maria which is approximately a 10-minute commute to the bridge. Living this close to a project is uncommon and comes as a huge benefit to the CEI team and client for many reasons. First, the response time to the bridge is negligible. Matt is available to quickly access the project in case an emergency should arise. In the unfortunate scenario of a vehicle accident, Matt can be onsite in minutes to assess the situation, complete a MOT Inspection Review Report (Form No. 700-011-37), and work with the contractor to safe up the area. This short drive prevents Junior from having to respond from nearby Ft Myers, where he could get caught in traffic. The quick response time would also be a benefit if complaints regarding MOT are received. Our team will not have to rely on the contractor as Matt can assess the situation personally. Second, Matt’s proximity to the project brings a sense of ownership. This is where he lives and driving in the vicinity of the bridge will serve as a constant reminder of the need for quality so pride can be taken in the final product. While we ensure quality on all our projects regardless of location to our homes, there is something special about serving projects near our hometown. Lastly, residing minutes from the projects allows Matt to understand weather threatening the project. This could range from heavy rains to hurricane force winds. Matt will be available to keep a pulse on weather forecasts and assist the contractor with steps required for preparedness. He will also be available to review the project after storms to decide if items need to be addressed. Steve Nappi, PE, lives in North Port and works in H&H’s Port Charlotte office. This distance was not an issue for Steve serving as the Senior Project Engineer for the White Boulevard Bridge and Vanderbilt Drive Bridge Replacement projects. Both projects were successfully completed and there were no issues with his availability. We feel it is important to note that these two projects which were completed for the County, required three years from start to finish. Steve’s commitment to these projects was evidenced by him completing his responsibilities under the contract and delivering three quality bridges at final acceptance. An 18 month CEI duration is anticipated for this Gator Canal bridge contract and Steve will bring the same commitment to ensure County satisfaction as he has for the previous two projects. H&H currently has a field office in Immokalee at the corner of SR 29 and Lake Trafford Road where our Project Engineer Matt Thomas, PE, works out of several days a week. This office provides the County and contractor a convenient meeting location at no cost to the County. We anticipate opening another office location in the Ave Maria town center. This location will also have more space to allow for larger capacity meetings. Having two offices a short distance from the project provides the contractor, county, and CEI ease of use for the management and day-to-day field operations. H&H has strategically selected our team due in part to their proximity to the project, along with their vast qualifications. All of our inspection staff presented for this contract are within one hour travel time to the project sites. From management to inspectors we look forward to providing resources to this contract that are responsive and locally based.

Further, Vendors are required to enroll in the E-Verify program, and provide acceptable evidence of their enrollment, at the time of the submission of the Vendor’s proposal. Acceptable evidence consists of a copy of the properly completed E-Verify Company Profile page or a copy of the fully executed E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding for the company. Failure to include this Affidavit and acceptable evidence of enrollment in the E-Verify program may deem the Vendor’s proposal as non- responsive https://www.e-verify.gov/. Collier County will not intentionally award County contracts to any Vendor who knowingly employs unauthorized alien workers, constituting a violation of the employment provision contained in 8 U.S.C. Section 1324 a(e) Section 274A(e) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (“INA”). Collier County may consider the employment by any Vendor of unauthorized aliens a violation of Section 274A (e) of the INA. Such Violation by the recipient of the Employment Provisions contained in Section 274A (e) of the INA shall be grounds for unilateral termination of the contract by Collier County. Vendor attests that they are fully compliant with all applicable immigration laws (specifically to the 1986 Immigration Act and subsequent Amendment(s)) and agrees to comply with the provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding with E-Verify and to provide proof of enrollment in The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify), operated by the Department of Homeland Security in partnership with the Social Security Administration at the time of submission of the Vendor’s proposal. Company Name ____________________________________________________________________ Print Name Title _______________________ Signature Date _______________________ Hardesty & Hanover Construction Services, LLC Brendan O’Shea, PE Principal 1/9/2020 Page 1 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: THE E-VERIFY MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING FOR EMPLOYERS ARTICLE I PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY E-Verify is a program that electronically confirms an employee’s eligibility to work in the United States after completion of Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9). This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) explains certain features of the E-Verify program and describes specific responsibilities of the Employer, the Social Security Administration (SSA), and DHS. Authority for the E-Verify program is found in Title IV, Subtitle A, of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), Pub. L. 104-208, 110 Stat. 3009, as amended (8 U.S.C. § 1324a note). The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 22.18, “Employment Eligibility Verification” and Executive Order 12989, as amended, provide authority for Federal contractors and subcontractors (Federal contractor) to use E-Verify to verify the employment eligibility of certain employees working on Federal contracts. ARTICLE II RESPONSIBILITIES A. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EMPLOYER 1.The Employer agrees to display the following notices supplied by DHS in a prominent place that is clearly visible to prospective employees and all employees who are to be verified through the system: a.Notice of E-Verify Participation b.Notice of Right to Work 2.The Employer agrees to provide to the SSA and DHS the names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of the Employer representatives to be contacted about E-Verify. The Employer also agrees to keep such information current by providing updated information to SSA and DHS whenever the representatives’ contact information changes. 3.The Employer agrees to grant E-Verify access only to current employees who need E-Verify access. Employers must promptly terminate an employee’s E-Verify access if the employer is separated from the company or no longer needs access to E-Verify. 141330 The parties to this agreement are the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Hardesty & Hanover, LLC (Employer). The purpose of this agreement is to set forth terms and conditions which the Employer will follow while participating in E-Verify. Page 2 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: 4. The Employer agrees to become familiar with and comply with the most recent version of the E-Verify User Manual. 5. The Employer agrees that any Employer Representative who will create E-Verify cases will complete the E-Verify Tutorial before that individual creates any cases. a. The Employer agrees that all Employer representatives will take the refresher tutorials when prompted by E-Verify in order to continue using E-Verify. Failure to complete a refresher tutorial will prevent the Employer Representative from continued use of E-Verify. 6. The Employer agrees to comply with current Form I-9 procedures, with two exceptions: a. If an employee presents a "List B" identity document, the Employer agrees to only accept "List B" documents that contain a photo. (List B documents identified in 8 C.F.R. § 274a.2(b)(1)(B)) can be presented during the Form I-9 process to establish identity.) If an employee objects to the photo requirement for religious reasons, the Employer should contact E-Verify at 888-464-4218. b. If an employee presents a DHS Form I-551 (Permanent Resident Card), Form I-766 (Employment Authorization Document), or U.S. Passport or Passport Card to complete Form I-9, the Employer agrees to make a photocopy of the document and to retain the photocopy with the employee’s Form I-9. The Employer will use the photocopy to verify the photo and to assist DHS with its review of photo mismatches that employees contest. DHS may in the future designate other documents that activate the photo screening tool. Note: Subject only to the exceptions noted previously in this paragraph, employees still retain the right to present any List A, or List B and List C, document(s) to complete the Form I-9. 7. The Employer agrees to record the case verification number on the employee's Form I-9 or to print the screen containing the case verification number and attach it to the employee's Form I-9. 8. The Employer agrees that, although it participates in E-Verify, the Employer has a responsibility to complete, retain, and make available for inspection Forms I-9 that relate to its employees, or from other requirements of applicable regulations or laws, including the obligation to comply with the antidiscrimination requirements of section 274B of the INA with respect to Form I-9 procedures. a. The following modified requirements are the only exceptions to an Employer’s obligation to not employ unauthorized workers and comply with the anti-discrimination provision of the INA: (1) List B identity documents must have photos, as described in paragraph 6 above; (2) When an Employer confirms the identity and employment eligibility of newly hired employee using E-Verify procedures, the Employer establishes a rebuttable presumption that it has not violated section 274A(a)(1)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) with respect to the hiring of that employee; (3) If the Employer receives a final nonconfirmation for an employee, but continues to employ that person, the Employer must notify DHS and the Employer is subject to a civil money penalty between $550 and $1,100 for each failure to notify DHS of continued employment following a final nonconfirmation; (4) If the Employer continues to employ an employee after receiving a final nonconfirmation, then the Employer is subject to a rebuttable presumption that it has knowingly 141330 Page 3 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: employed an unauthorized alien in violation of section 274A(a)(1)(A); and (5) no E-Verify participant is civilly or criminally liable under any law for any action taken in good faith based on information provided through the E-Verify. b. DHS reserves the right to conduct Form I-9 compliance inspections, as well as any other enforcement or compliance activity authorized by law, including site visits, to ensure proper use of E-Verify. 9. The Employer is strictly prohibited from creating an E-Verify case before the employee has been hired, meaning that a firm offer of employment was extended and accepted and Form I-9 was completed. The Employer agrees to create an E-Verify case for new employees within three Employer business days after each employee has been hired (after both Sections 1 and 2 of Form I-9 have been completed), and to complete as many steps of the E-Verify process as are necessary according to the E-Verify User Manual. If E-Verify is temporarily unavailable, the three-day time period will be extended until it is again operational in order to accommodate the Employer's attempting, in good faith, to make inquiries during the period of unavailability. 10. The Employer agrees not to use E-Verify for pre-employment screening of job applicants, in support of any unlawful employment practice, or for any other use that this MOU or the E-Verify User Manual does not authorize. 11. The Employer must use E-Verify for all new employees. The Employer will not verify selectively and will not verify employees hired before the effective date of this MOU. Employers who are Federal contractors may qualify for exceptions to this requirement as described in Article II.B of this MOU. 12. The Employer agrees to follow appropriate procedures (see Article III below) regarding tentative nonconfirmations. The Employer must promptly notify employees in private of the finding and provide them with the notice and letter containing information specific to the employee’s E-Verify case. The Employer agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer agrees to provide written referral instructions to employees and instruct affected employees to bring the English copy of the letter to the SSA. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. Further, when employees contest a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo mismatch, the Employer must take additional steps (see Article III.B. below) to contact DHS with information necessary to resolve the challenge. 13. The Employer agrees not to take any adverse action against an employee based upon the employee's perceived employment eligibility status while SSA or DHS is processing the verification request unless the Employer obtains knowledge (as defined in 8 C.F.R. § 274a.1(l)) that the employee is not work authorized. The Employer understands that an initial inability of the SSA or DHS automated verification system to verify work authorization, a tentative nonconfirmation, a case in continuance (indicating the need for additional time for the government to resolve a case), or the finding of a photo mismatch, does not establish, and should not be interpreted as, evidence that the employee is not work authorized. In any of such cases, the employee must be provided a full and fair opportunity to contest the finding, and if he or she does so, the employee may not be terminated or suffer any adverse employment consequences based upon the employee’s perceived employment eligibility status 141330 Page 4 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: (including denying, reducing, or extending work hours, delaying or preventing training, requiring an employee to work in poorer conditions, withholding pay, refusing to assign the employee to a Federal contract or other assignment, or otherwise assuming that he or she is unauthorized to work) until and unless secondary verification by SSA or DHS has been completed and a final nonconfirmation has been issued. If the employee does not choose to contest a tentative nonconfirmation or a photo mismatch or if a secondary verification is completed and a final nonconfirmation is issued, then the Employer can find the employee is not work authorized and terminate the employee’s employment. Employers or employees with questions about a final nonconfirmation may call E-Verify at 1-888-464- 4218 (customer service) or 1-888-897-7781 (worker hotline). 14. The Employer agrees to comply with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and section 274B of the INA as applicable by not discriminating unlawfully against any individual in hiring, firing, employment eligibility verification, or recruitment or referral practices because of his or her national origin or citizenship status, or by committing discriminatory documentary practices. The Employer understands that such illegal practices can include selective verification or use of E-Verify except as provided in part D below, or discharging or refusing to hire employees because they appear or sound “foreign” or have received tentative nonconfirmations. The Employer further understands that any violation of the immigration-related unfair employment practices provisions in section 274B of the INA could subject the Employer to civil penalties, back pay awards, and other sanctions, and violations of Title VII could subject the Employer to back pay awards, compensatory and punitive damages. Violations of either section 274B of the INA or Title VII may also lead to the termination of its participation in E-Verify. If the Employer has any questions relating to the anti-discrimination provision, it should contact OSC at 1-800-255-8155 or 1-800-237-2515 (TDD). 15. The Employer agrees that it will use the information it receives from E-Verify only to confirm the employment eligibility of employees as authorized by this MOU. The Employer agrees that it will safeguard this information, and means of access to it (such as PINS and passwords), to ensure that it is not used for any other purpose and as necessary to protect its confidentiality, including ensuring that it is not disseminated to any person other than employees of the Employer who are authorized to perform the Employer's responsibilities under this MOU, except for such dissemination as may be authorized in advance by SSA or DHS for legitimate purposes. 16. The Employer agrees to notify DHS immediately in the event of a breach of personal information. Breaches are defined as loss of control or unauthorized access to E-Verify personal data. All suspected or confirmed breaches should be reported by calling 1-888-464-4218 or via email at E-Verify@dhs.gov. Please use “Privacy Incident – Password” in the subject line of your email when sending a breach report to E-Verify. 17. The Employer acknowledges that the information it receives from SSA is governed by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a(i)(1) and (3)) and the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)). Any person who obtains this information under false pretenses or uses it for any purpose other than as provided for in this MOU may be subject to criminal penalties. 18. The Employer agrees to cooperate with DHS and SSA in their compliance monitoring and evaluation of E-Verify, which includes permitting DHS, SSA, their contractors and other agents, upon 141330 Page 5 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: reasonable notice, to review Forms I-9 and other employment records and to interview it and its employees regarding the Employer’s use of E-Verify, and to respond in a prompt and accurate manner to DHS requests for information relating to their participation in E-Verify. 19. The Employer shall not make any false or unauthorized claims or references about its participation in E-Verify on its website, in advertising materials, or other media. The Employer shall not describe its services as federally-approved, federally-certified, or federally-recognized, or use language with a similar intent on its website or other materials provided to the public. Entering into this MOU does not mean that E-Verify endorses or authorizes your E-Verify services and any claim to that effect is false. 20. The Employer shall not state in its website or other public documents that any language used therein has been provided or approved by DHS, USCIS or the Verification Division, without first obtaining the prior written consent of DHS. 21. The Employer agrees that E-Verify trademarks and logos may be used only under license by DHS/USCIS (see M-795 (Web)) and, other than pursuant to the specific terms of such license, may not be used in any manner that might imply that the Employer’s services, products, websites, or publications are sponsored by, endorsed by, licensed by, or affiliated with DHS, USCIS, or E-Verify. 22. The Employer understands that if it uses E-Verify procedures for any purpose other than as authorized by this MOU, the Employer may be subject to appropriate legal action and termination of its participation in E-Verify according to this MOU. B. RESPONSIBILITIES OF FEDERAL CONTRACTORS 1. If the Employer is a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause subject to the employment verification terms in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR, it will become familiar with and comply with the most current version of the E-Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors as well as the E-Verify Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors. 2. In addition to the responsibilities of every employer outlined in this MOU, the Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor subject to the employment verification terms in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR it must verify the employment eligibility of any “employee assigned to the contract” (as defined in FAR 22.1801). Once an employee has been verified through E-Verify by the Employer, the Employer may not create a second case for the employee through E-Verify. a. An Employer that is not enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor at the time of a contract award must enroll as a Federal contractor in the E-Verify program within 30 calendar days of contract award and, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to verify employment eligibility of new hires using E-Verify. The Employer must verify those employees who are working in the United States, whether or not they are assigned to the contract. Once the Employer begins verifying new hires, such verification of new hires must be initiated within three business days after the hire date. Once enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor, the Employer must begin verification of employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after the date of enrollment or within 30 days of an employee’s assignment to the contract, whichever date is later. 141330 Page 6 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: b. Employers enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor for 90 days or more at the time of a contract award must use E-Verify to begin verification of employment eligibility for new hires of the Employer who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the contract, within three business days after the date of hire. If the Employer is enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor for 90 calendar days or less at the time of contract award, the Employer must, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to use E-Verify to initiate verification of new hires of the contractor who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the contract. Such verification of new hires must be initiated within three business days after the date of hire. An Employer enrolled as a Federal contractor in E-Verify must begin verification of each employee assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after date of contract award or within 30 days after assignment to the contract, whichever is later. c. Federal contractors that are institutions of higher education (as defined at 20 U.S.C. 1001(a)), state or local governments, governments of Federally recognized Indian tribes, or sureties performing under a takeover agreement entered into with a Federal agency under a performance bond may choose to only verify new and existing employees assigned to the Federal contract. Such Federal contractors may, however, elect to verify all new hires, and/or all existing employees hired after November 6, 1986. Employers in this category must begin verification of employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after the date of enrollment or within 30 days of an employee’s assignment to the contract, whichever date is later. d. Upon enrollment, Employers who are Federal contractors may elect to verify employment eligibility of all existing employees working in the United States who were hired after November 6, 1986, instead of verifying only those employees assigned to a covered Federal contract. After enrollment, Employers must elect to verify existing staff following DHS procedures and begin E-Verify verification of all existing employees within 180 days after the election. e. The Employer may use a previously completed Form I-9 as the basis for creating an E-Verify case for an employee assigned to a contract as long as: i. That Form I-9 is complete (including the SSN) and complies with Article II.A.6, ii. The employee’s work authorization has not expired, and iii. The Employer has reviewed the Form I-9 information either in person or in communications with the employee to ensure that the employee’s Section 1, Form I-9 attestation has not changed (including, but not limited to, a lawful permanent resident alien having become a naturalized U.S. citizen). f. The Employer shall complete a new Form I-9 consistent with Article II.A.6 or update the previous Form I-9 to provide the necessary information if: i. The Employer cannot determine that Form I-9 complies with Article II.A.6, ii. The employee’s basis for work authorization as attested in Section 1 has expired or changed, or iii. The Form I-9 contains no SSN or is otherwise incomplete. Note: If Section 1 of Form I-9 is otherwise valid and up-to-date and the form otherwise complies with 141330 Page 7 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: Article II.C.5, but reflects documentation (such as a U.S. passport or Form I-551) that expired after completing Form I-9, the Employer shall not require the production of additional documentation, or use the photo screening tool described in Article II.A.5, subject to any additional or superseding instructions that may be provided on this subject in the E-Verify User Manual. g. The Employer agrees not to require a second verification using E-Verify of any assigned employee who has previously been verified as a newly hired employee under this MOU or to authorize verification of any existing employee by any Employer that is not a Federal contractor based on this Article. 3. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor, its compliance with this MOU is a performance requirement under the terms of the Federal contract or subcontract, and the Employer consents to the release of information relating to compliance with its verification responsibilities under this MOU to contracting officers or other officials authorized to review the Employer’s compliance with Federal contracting requirements. C. RESPONSIBILITIES OF SSA 1. SSA agrees to allow DHS to compare data provided by the Employer against SSA’s database. SSA sends DHS confirmation that the data sent either matches or does not match the information in SSA’s database. 2. SSA agrees to safeguard the information the Employer provides through E-Verify procedures. SSA also agrees to limit access to such information, as is appropriate by law, to individuals responsible for the verification of Social Security numbers or responsible for evaluation of E-Verify or such other persons or entities who may be authorized by SSA as governed by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a), the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)), and SSA regulations (20 CFR Part 401). 3. SSA agrees to provide case results from its database within three Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry. E-Verify provides the information to the Employer. 4. SSA agrees to update SSA records as necessary if the employee who contests the SSA tentative nonconfirmation visits an SSA field office and provides the required evidence. If the employee visits an SSA field office within the eight Federal Government work days from the date of referral to SSA, SSA agrees to update SSA records, if appropriate, within the eight-day period unless SSA determines that more than eight days may be necessary. In such cases, SSA will provide additional instructions to the employee. If the employee does not visit SSA in the time allowed, E-Verify may provide a final nonconfirmation to the employer. Note: If an Employer experiences technical problems, or has a policy question, the employer should contact E-Verify at 1-888-464-4218. D. RESPONSIBILITIES OF DHS 1. DHS agrees to provide the Employer with selected data from DHS databases to enable the Employer to conduct, to the extent authorized by this MOU: a. Automated verification checks on alien employees by electronic means, and 141330 Page 8 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: b. Photo verification checks (when available) on employees. 2. DHS agrees to assist the Employer with operational problems associated with the Employer's participation in E-Verify. DHS agrees to provide the Employer names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of DHS representatives to be contacted during the E-Verify process. 3. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer with access to E-Verify training materials as well as an E-Verify User Manual that contain instructions on E-Verify policies, procedures, and requirements for both SSA and DHS, including restrictions on the use of E-Verify. 4. DHS agrees to train Employers on all important changes made to E-Verify through the use of mandatory refresher tutorials and updates to the E-Verify User Manual. Even without changes to E-Verify, DHS reserves the right to require employers to take mandatory refresher tutorials. 5. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer a notice, which indicates the Employer's participation in E-Verify. DHS also agrees to provide to the Employer anti-discrimination notices issued by the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC), Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice. 6. DHS agrees to issue each of the Employer’s E-Verify users a unique user identification number and password that permits them to log in to E-Verify. 7. DHS agrees to safeguard the information the Employer provides, and to limit access to such information to individuals responsible for the verification process, for evaluation of E-Verify, or to such other persons or entities as may be authorized by applicable law. Information will be used only to verify the accuracy of Social Security numbers and employment eligibility, to enforce the INA and Federal criminal laws, and to administer Federal contracting requirements. 8. DHS agrees to provide a means of automated verification that provides (in conjunction with SSA verification procedures) confirmation or tentative nonconfirmation of employees' employment eligibility within three Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry. 9. DHS agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating DHS records) for employees who contest DHS tentative nonconfirmations and photo mismatch tentative nonconfirmations. This provides final confirmation or nonconfirmation of the employees' employment eligibility within 10 Federal Government work days of the date of referral to DHS, unless DHS determines that more than 10 days may be necessary. In such cases, DHS will provide additional verification instructions. ARTICLE III REFERRAL OF INDIVIDUALS TO SSA AND DHS A. REFERRAL TO SSA 1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by SSA, the Employer must print the notice as directed by E-Verify. The Employer must promptly notify employees in private of the finding and provide them with the notice and letter containing information specific to the employee’s E-Verify 141330 Page 9 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: case. The Employer also agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer agrees to provide written referral instructions to employees and instruct affected employees to bring the English copy of the letter to the SSA. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. 2. The Employer agrees to obtain the employee’s response about whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible after the Employer receives the tentative nonconfirmation. Only the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation. 3. After a tentative nonconfirmation, the Employer will refer employees to SSA field offices only as directed by E-Verify. The Employer must record the case verification number, review the employee information submitted to E-Verify to identify any errors, and find out whether the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation. The Employer will transmit the Social Security number, or any other corrected employee information that SSA requests, to SSA for verification again if this review indicates a need to do so. 4. The Employer will instruct the employee to visit an SSA office within eight Federal Government work days. SSA will electronically transmit the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. 5. While waiting for case results, the Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case updates. 6. The Employer agrees not to ask the employee to obtain a printout from the Social Security Administration number database (the Numident) or other written verification of the SSN from the SSA. B. REFERRAL TO DHS 1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer must promptly notify employees in private of the finding and provide them with the notice and letter containing information specific to the employee’s E-Verify case. The Employer also agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. 2. The Employer agrees to obtain the employee’s response about whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible after the Employer receives the tentative nonconfirmation. Only the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation. 3. The Employer agrees to refer individuals to DHS only when the employee chooses to contest a tentative nonconfirmation. 4. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer will instruct the 141330 Page 10 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: employee to contact DHS through its toll-free hotline (as found on the referral letter) within eight Federal Government work days. 5. If the Employer finds a photo mismatch, the Employer must provide the photo mismatch tentative nonconfirmation notice and follow the instructions outlined in paragraph 1 of this section for tentative nonconfirmations, generally. 6. The Employer agrees that if an employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo mismatch, the Employer will send a copy of the employee’s Form I-551, Form I-766, U.S. Passport, or passport card to DHS for review by: a. Scanning and uploading the document, or b. Sending a photocopy of the document by express mail (furnished and paid for by the employer). 7. The Employer understands that if it cannot determine whether there is a photo match/mismatch, the Employer must forward the employee’s documentation to DHS as described in the preceding paragraph. The Employer agrees to resolve the case as specified by the DHS representative who will determine the photo match or mismatch. 8. DHS will electronically transmit the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. 9. While waiting for case results, the Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case updates. ARTICLE IV SERVICE PROVISIONS A. NO SERVICE FEES 1. SSA and DHS will not charge the Employer for verification services performed under this MOU. The Employer is responsible for providing equipment needed to make inquiries. To access E-Verify, an Employer will need a personal computer with Internet access. ARTICLE V MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION A. MODIFICATION 1. This MOU is effective upon the signature of all parties and shall continue in effect for as long as the SSA and DHS operates the E-Verify program unless modified in writing by the mutual consent of all parties. 2. Any and all E-Verify system enhancements by DHS or SSA, including but not limited to E-Verify checking against additional data sources and instituting new verification policies or procedures, will be covered under this MOU and will not cause the need for a supplemental MOU that outlines these changes. 141330 Page 11 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: B. TERMINATION 1. The Employer may terminate this MOU and its participation in E-Verify at any time upon 30 days prior written notice to the other parties. 2. Notwithstanding Article V, part A of this MOU, DHS may terminate this MOU, and thereby the Employer’s participation in E-Verify, with or without notice at any time if deemed necessary because of the requirements of law or policy, or upon a determination by SSA or DHS that there has been a breach of system integrity or security by the Employer, or a failure on the part of the Employer to comply with established E-Verify procedures and/or legal requirements. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor, termination of this MOU by any party for any reason may negatively affect the performance of its contractual responsibilities. Similarly, the Employer understands that if it is in a state where E-Verify is mandatory, termination of this by any party MOU may negatively affect the Employer’s business. 3. An Employer that is a Federal contractor may terminate this MOU when the Federal contract that requires its participation in E-Verify is terminated or completed. In such cases, the Federal contractor must provide written notice to DHS. If an Employer that is a Federal contractor fails to provide such notice, then that Employer will remain an E-Verify participant, will remain bound by the terms of this MOU that apply to non-Federal contractor participants, and will be required to use the E-Verify procedures to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired employees. 4. The Employer agrees that E-Verify is not liable for any losses, financial or otherwise, if the Employer is terminated from E-Verify. ARTICLE VI PARTIES A. Some or all SSA and DHS responsibilities under this MOU may be performed by contractor(s), and SSA and DHS may adjust verification responsibilities between each other as necessary. By separate agreement with DHS, SSA has agreed to perform its responsibilities as described in this MOU. B. Nothing in this MOU is intended, or should be construed, to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by any third party against the United States, its agencies, officers, or employees, or against the Employer, its agents, officers, or employees. C. The Employer may not assign, directly or indirectly, whether by operation of law, change of control or merger, all or any part of its rights or obligations under this MOU without the prior written consent of DHS, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any attempt to sublicense, assign, or transfer any of the rights, duties, or obligations herein is void. D. Each party shall be solely responsible for defending any claim or action against it arising out of or related to E-Verify or this MOU, whether civil or criminal, and for any liability wherefrom, including (but not limited to) any dispute between the Employer and any other person or entity regarding the applicability of Section 403(d) of IIRIRA to any action taken or allegedly taken by the Employer. E. The Employer understands that its participation in E-Verify is not confidential information and may be disclosed as authorized or required by law and DHS or SSA policy, including but not limited to, 141330 Page 12 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers | Revision Date 06/01/13 Company ID Number: Congressional oversight, E-Verify publicity and media inquiries, determinations of compliance with Federal contractual requirements, and responses to inquiries under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). F. The individuals whose signatures appear below represent that they are authorized to enter into this MOU on behalf of the Employer and DHS respectively. The Employer understands that any inaccurate statement, representation, data or other information provided to DHS may subject the Employer, its subcontractors, its employees, or its representatives to: (1) prosecution for false statements pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or; (2) immediate termination of its MOU and/or; (3) possible debarment or suspension.
