CONTRACTOR

FOR HOMEOWNER ASSISTANCE FUND PREVENTIVE DISPLACEMENT REPAIRS

(Federal Funds)

THIS CONTRACT is entered into on the land of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian

Reservation (“Tribe”) on this

_____ day of_____________, 2025, by and between the Colville Indian

Housing Authority (CIHA), and [Contractor name] (“Contractor”), hereinafter collectively called the

“Parties.”

The CIHA and Contractor agree as set forth below:

Article 1.

Scope of Work and Project Performance.

1.1. The Scope of Work for this Contract is to provide construction work as described more

particularly in Exhibit A to this Contract (the “Project”).

1.2. Contractor shall execute the entire Work described in the “Contract Documents,” which are

comprised solely of this Contract and all attachments and exhibits hereto and fully incorporated herein by

reference, except to the extent specifically indicated in the Contract Documents to be the responsibility of

others (provided that if any terms of this Contract conflict with the attachments to this Contract, the terms

of this Contract shall govern). The term “Work” means the construction and services required by the

Contract Documents, and includes all labor, materials, equipment, and services provided to or to be

provided by the Contractor to fulfill Contractor's obligations under this Contract. This Contract and all

attachments and exhibits hereto are referred to as the “Contract Documents.” The Contract Documents

include the following exhibits and attachments:

1.2.1.

1.3. A Contracting Officer shall be appointed by the CIHA to monitor the performance of the Contract

and to communicate with the Contractor on behalf of the CIHA regarding all aspects of the Contract and

any Work arising thereunder.

1.4. CIHA hereby gives and grants to the Contractor the right to enter into and upon the lands located

in those areas identified in Exhibit A and to perform work on such lands during the term of this Contract

for the purposes of fulfilling the obligations set forth herein. CIHA reserves the sovereign right to restrict

Contractor's access to certain roads or rights-of-way when, in the CIHA's sole discretion, continued use of

such roads or rights-of-way would cause them unreasonable damage or for other good cause.

1.5. Contractor shall procure and pay for all licenses, permits, approvals, certificates, and

authorizations necessary to the prosecution and completion of the Work and deliver evidence of same to

CIHA unless otherwise noted. Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer and the respective

departments or official bodies when its Work is ready for inspection and shall, at once, do all work

required to remove any violations or to comply with such inspections, without additional charge to CIHA.

1.6. Progressive cleanup and disposal off the Work site of Contractor's waste materials is to be

performed by Contractor. If the Contractor fails to perform cleanup of its Work within twenty-four (24)

hours of notification by the Contracting Officer, CIHA shall proceed to have the cleanup performed for

Contractor and the cost for doing so will be assessed against the Contractor and deducted from the amount

to be paid to the Contractor for the Work.

1.7. The Contractor shall be responsible for coordinating his/her/their work with that of other trades, if

applicable. In the event that the completed work of any trade has to be removed, replaced, or modified due

to the Contractor's negligence in completing his work within a reasonably scheduled period, or due to lack

of coordination on the part of the Contractor, the cost of removing, replacing, and modifying such work

will be assessed against the Contractor and deducted from the amount to be paid to the Contractor for the

Work.

1.8. Contractor shall at all times during the progress of the Work have an authorized representative of

its company at the Work site who can receive orders and has full authority to make decisions regarding the

Work to be performed hereunder and who has complete responsibility for the Work insofar as this

Contract is concerned. The Contractor shall provide the name and emergency or home telephone number

of the corporate or company officer, general superintendent, and the project superintendent or foreman.

1.9. Contractor shall perform the Work under the general direction and oversight of CIHA, and shall

comply with any instructions given by the Contracting Officer. Contractor shall perform the Work in a

good and workmanlike manner, consistent with the highest standard of the industry, and in strict

accordance with the Contract Documents and all applicable building codes and regulations. All

construction and/or remodeling shall conform to the acceptable standards of safety and habitability, such

standards to be equal to or more stringent than those established under the State Building Code as codified

in Title 19, Chapter 27, Section 31 of the Washington Administrative Code as may be amended from time

to time, or the International Building Codes, whichever is more stringent. Such requirements shall be

included in all subcontracts, at every tier. CIHA reserves the right to waive any provision of the

applicable building codes as stated in the General Conditions of the Contract for Construction.

1.10.

Reports shall be submitted daily to the Contracting Officer, no later than 9:00 a.m. the

following day indicating the number of personnel working on the Work site the previous day along with a

description of activities and equipment used in the conduct of the Work. Contracting Officer may waive

this requirement at his or her sole discretion.

1.11.

Contractor shall prosecute the Work in a prompt and diligent manner with adequate

manpower whenever such Work, or any part of it, becomes available or at such other times as CIHA may

direct, and so as to promote the general and uninterrupted progress of the Project. Contractor shall

cooperate with related work and shall not interfere in any manner with the work of CIHA or other

contractors or subcontractors. If Contractor fails to initiate or complete any portion of the Work by the

time specified in the Contract Documents, or if it becomes apparent to CIHA that the Work will not be

completed in a timely fashion, and if such failure is due in whole or in part to any fault of Contractor, then

CIHA may, in addition and without any prejudice to any other remedies it may have pursuant to other

portions of this Contract or applicable law, require Contractor to take all steps necessary to perform the

Work in a timely manner and consistent with the required quality of the Work, including but not limited to

increasing or supplementing the working force and equipment and to performing the Work on an overtime

or multiple shift basis. Any premium for such overtime or additional shifts, the cost of employing

additional workers and equipment, together with any additional costs thereby incurred, shall be at

Colville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

Page 2 of 25

Contractor's sole expense. Contractor shall furnish all submittals required by the Contract Documents or

requested by CIHA in a prompt and timely fashion so as to expedite the progress of the Work. All traffic

control of Contractor's own operations including that of his suppliers is included in the Contract Price.

This includes flagmen, barricades, permits, etc., as may be required by any legal agency having

jurisdiction over the Work.

1.12.

If any portion of the Work depends upon prior performance of any other activities of

CIHA, other contractors or subcontractors, or any other person or entity involved in the construction of the

Project, then commencement by Contractor of that portion of the Work shall be deemed an acceptance by

Contractor of the adequacy and completeness of such other activities.

1.13.

Contractor shall fully protect all portions of the Work, including all materials and

equipment to be furnished in connection with the Work, until the Work is fully completed and accepted by

CIHA. Until that final acceptance, all risk of loss with respect to the Work shall remain with the

Contractor. Contractor will make good or replace, at no expense to CIHA, any damage to the Work which

occurs prior to that final acceptance. Contractor shall take necessary precautions to protect the activities of

CIHA, other contractors and subcontractors, and other persons and entities involved in the construction of

the Project, from damages caused by performance of the Work or other operations of Contractor.

1.14.

No materials, equipment, or other articles of personal property purchased by Contractor or

any subcontractor for incorporation into the Work shall be purchased or installed under any Contract

where the seller reserves or purports to reserve title or the right of removal or repossession, or the right to

consider those items personal property after their incorporation into the Work, unless specifically

authorized in advance by CIHA in writing.

1.15.

Notice to Proceed. The Contracting Officer shall issue a Notice to Proceed within fifteen

(15) days of the date this Contract is executed, and Contractor shall commence the Work within seven (7)

days of receiving the Notice to Proceed unless otherwise specified in writing by the Contracting Officer.

A copy of the signed Notice to Proceed shall be sent to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) when issued

in connection with any federally-funded construction contract in excess of $10,000.00.

1.16.

Inspection. The Contracting Officer or any delegate of his shall have the right to enter the

Work site at any reasonable time to inspect the Work. If the Contracting Officer determines that any

portion of the Work does not conform to the Contract Documents, or otherwise departs from the

requirements of this Contract, the Contracting Officer may require Contractor—at Contractor's sole

expense—to immediately correct the Work. In such event, Contractor will correct the Work to the

Contracting Officer's satisfaction. However, nothing in this clause or this Contract shall require

Contracting Officer to conduct such inspections or to point out any necessary corrections, and no default

of Contractor shall be waived by any inspection by the Contracting Officer or by Contracting Officer's

failure to point out any non-conforming work. In no event will any inspection be deemed to be a

representation by CIHA that there has been or will be compliance with the Contract Documents or that the

Work is free of defective materials or workmanship.

1.17.

Changes.

1.17.1.

CIHA may at any time, by written order, and without notice to the sureties, if any,

make changes within the general scope of this Contract in the services to be performed or supplies to be

delivered.

1.17.2.

If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the hourly rate, the not-toexceed amount of the Contract, or the time required for performance of any part of the work under this

Contract, whether or not changed by the order, or otherwise affects the conditions of this contract, CIHA

shall make an equitable adjustment in the not-to-exceed amount, the hourly rate, the delivery schedule, or

other affected terms, and shall modify the Contract accordingly.

Colville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

Page 3 of 25

1.17.3.

Contractor must assert its right to an equitable adjustment under this clause within

ten (10) days from the date of receipt of the written order. However, if CIHA decides that the facts justify

it, CIHA may receive and act upon a proposal submitted before final payment of the Contract.

1.17.4.

Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute under the disputes clause,

herein. However, nothing in this clause shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the Contract as

changed. No services for which an additional cost or fee will be charged by the Contractor shall be

furnished without the prior written consent of CIHA.

Article 2.

Time of Completion.

2.1. The Work to be performed under this Contract shall begin on or before _____________ and shall

be substantially completed on or before ___________________________. Time is of the essence.

“Substantial Completion” means that the CIHA has, in its sole discretion, found the Work to be accessible,

operable, and useable by the CIHA, subject only to minor corrective work.

2.2. CIHA's Contracting Officer shall meet periodically with the Contractor to discuss the Contractor's

progress in fulfilling Contractor's obligations under this Contract and to determine whether the Contractor

is on schedule for completion of the Work.

2.3. If Contractor knows or has reason to believe that the Work will be delayed or other serious

problems may interfere with the Substantial Completion of the Work under the terms of this Contract, the

Contractor must notify the CIHA and contact the CIHA's legal counsel to prepare a notice to the bonding

company thereof.

Article 3.

Fixed Maximum Price.

3.1. The sum of the Cost of the Work and the Contractor's Fee is guaranteed by the Contractor not to

exceed [written dollar amount] ($________________.00), subject to additions and deductions pursuant to

any authorized written change orders as provided in the Contract Documents. Such maximum sum is

referred to in the Contract Documents as the Fixed Maximum Price. Costs that would cause the Fixed

Maximum Price to be exceeded shall be paid by the Contractor without reimbursement by the CIHA,

unless Contractor receives CIHA’s prior, written approval for such costs.

3.2. The term “Cost of the Work” shall mean costs necessarily incurred by the Contractor in the proper

performance of the Work, including payments made by Contractor to subcontractors in accordance with

the requirements of the subcontracts.

Article 4.

Progress Payments.

4.1. The Contractor shall submit to CIHA an Application for Payments for every calendar month

ending on the last day of each month. Each Application for Payment shall be based upon the Schedule of

Values attached to this Contract as Exhibit B. The Schedule of Values shall be prepared in such form and

be supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as CIHA may require.

4.2. Each monthly application for payment shall indicate the percent completed of the items stated on

the Schedule of Values. Payment shall be made only after the CIHA's Contracting Officer certifies the

Application for Payment. Partial payment under this section shall not waive any rights that the CIHA may

have against Contractor with respect to any defect or failure of the Contractor to complete any aspect of

the work according to the Contract Documents or in a workman-like fashion. Payment shall be made

within twenty (20) days of the certification by the CIHA's Contracting Officer.

4.3. The amount of each progress payment shall be computed as follows:

4.3.1.

Take that portion of the Fixed Maximum Price properly allocable to completed

work as determined by multiplying the share of the Fixed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the

work as set out in Exhibit B. Payment made for each item from Exhibit B shall be inclusive of all licenses,

permits, approvals, certificates, materials, labor costs, and authorizations necessary to the prosecution. If

Colville Indian Housing Authority

requested by the CIHA, Contractor shall provide an itemized list of all expenditures attributed to the item

or items from Exhibit B for which payment is requested.

4.3.2.

Deduct from the amount computed as owing under this section the retainage of

ten percent (10%). Said retainage will be paid over to Contractor upon completion of the Work under this

Contract and acceptance of the Work by the CIHA and compliance with the requirements of Article 5.

4.3.3.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract the aggregate of all

payments made to Contractor shall not exceed the amount set out in Article 3 above. Should work remain

to be done after the payment of all funds under Article 3, Contractor without further payment shall

complete all remaining work. Cost over runs shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.

4.4. Contractor shall furnish CIHA releases or waivers of liens including materialman's liens and wage

liens for all work performed or materials provided along with the Applications for Payment. No partial or

full payment shall be made unless the CIHA is satisfied that all wages and material costs have been paid

by the Contractor.

4.5. Payments, including the Final Payment, may be withheld by CIHA for reasons including, but not

limited to: (i) defective Work not remedied, (ii) claims filed by third parties, (iii) failure of the Contractor

to make payments properly to subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment, (iv) reasonable evidence

that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Fixed Maximum Price, (v) damage to the

CIHA or another contractor, (vi) reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed within the

Contract Time and that the unpaid balance of the Fixed Maximum Price would not be adequate to cover

actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay, (vii) persistent failure to carry out the Work in

accordance with the Contract Documents, and/or (viii) failure to comply with applicable regulations, laws,

and standards, including but not limited to workplace safety, wage and hour provisions, health and safety

requirements, and/or environmental laws.

4.6. No payment made to Contractor pursuant to the terms of this Contract, including the Final

Payment, shall be construed as acceptance of any work or materials not in accordance with the Contract

Documents.

4.7. Contractor shall not be entitled to any interest on any amount found to be due and owing under

this Contract, but shall, at most, only be entitled to the amount specified in Article 3.

Article 5.

Final Payment.

5.1. Contractor shall submit an application for Final Payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of

the Contract, along with the certificate demonstrating that the Work is complete and this Contract fully

performed. The Final Payment shall be made by CIHA to Contractor within thirty (30) days after CIHA's

Authorized Representative has approved the application for Final Payment.

are satisfied: (i) the Work has been fully performed in conformance with the Contract Documents and the

Work has been accepted by CIHA as complete; (ii) Contractor submits evidence satisfactory to CIHA that

Payment by CIHA waive CIHA's right to assert, at some future point, that one or more of these conditions

has not been met if CIHA discovers such non-compliance after making Final Payment.

Article 6.

Colville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

Article 7.

INDEMNITY.

7.1. Contractor shall indemnify CIHA against and hold CIHA harmless from any and all claims,

actions, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), obligations, liabilities and liens

(including any of the foregoing arising or imposed under the doctrines of “strict liability” or “product

liability” and including, without limitation, the cost of any fines, remedial action, damage to the

environment and cleanup and the fees and costs of consultants and experts), arising out of the services

provided by Contractor pursuant to this Contract, or for any other activities of Contractor or Contractors'

officers, agents, or employees, excluding, however, any of the foregoing resulting from the sole negligence

or willful misconduct of CIHA. Contractor agrees that upon written notice by CIHA of the assertion of

such a claim, action, damage, obligation, liability or lien, Contractor shall assume full responsibility for

the defense thereof. Contractor's choice of counsel shall be mutually acceptable to both CIHA and

Contractor. Contractor waives, as respects to CIHA only, any immunity that would otherwise be available

against such claims under the Industrial Insurance provisions of Title 51 of the Revised Code of

Washington as well as any similar coverage required for this work by applicable federal or other state's

state law.

Article 8.

13.1.

Contractor's Insurance. Contractor warrants that it is adequately insured for injury to its

one of the contracting Parties seeking, as a matter of right, the payment of money in a sum certain, the

adjustment or interpretation of Contract terms, or other relief arising under or relating to the Contract. A

claim arising under the Contract, unlike a claim relating to the Contract, is a claim that can be resolved

under a Contract clause that provides for the relief sought by the claimant. A voucher, invoice, or other

routine request for payment that is not in dispute when submitted is not a claim. The submission may be

converted to a claim by complying with the requirements of this clause, if it is disputed either as to

liability or amount or is not acted upon in a reasonable time.

for the alleged breach thereof which are not disposed of by agreement, shall be resolved exclusively under

compensation, or for an extension of time of performance, or for any dispute regarding a question of fact,

or for interpretation of the Contract, shall be made in writing and submitted to the Contracting Officer for

a written decision within ten (10) calendar days from the date of the occurrence of the dispute. Contractor

agrees that unless these written notices are provided, Contractor will have no entitlement to additional time

or compensation for such act, event or condition and such failure to provide such notice shall constitute a

waiver of the claims. All claims by CIHA against Contractor shall be made in writing and submitted to

Contractor within ten (10) calendar days from the date of the occurrence of the dispute.

14.4.

Presenting Claim. In presenting the claim and supporting documentation, Contractor shall

specifically include, to the extent then possible, the following:

14.4.1.

Certification signed by Contractor that the claim is made in good faith, that the

supporting data is accurate and complete to the best of Contractor's knowledge and belief, and that the

amount requested accurately reflects the Contract adjustment for which Contractor believes CIHA is

liable.

and causal connection of the claim including: (i) A brief summary of the claim and the facts pertinent to

14.5.

All claims by Contractor shall be made in writing and submitted to the Contracting Officer

for a written decision.

The Contracting Officer shall, within ____________ [60 unless otherwise indicated] days

after receipt of the request, decide the claim or notify Contractor of the date by which the decision will be

made.

14.7.

The Contracting Officer's decision shall be final unless Contractor appeals in writing to a

higher level in CIHA in accordance with CIHA's applicable policy and procedures for such appeals, if any.

In the event that CIHA does not have a policy and procedures for such an appeal, an appeal may be made

to the governing body of CIHA. Such appeal must be made within ________________[10 unless

otherwise indicated] days after receipt of the Contracting Officer's decision.

14.8.

Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this Contract, pending final

resolution of any request for relief, claim, appeal, or action arising under or relating to the Contract, and

comply with any decision of the Contracting Officer.

14.9.

Nothing in this Contract, or any action taken by CIHA or any of its agents or employees in

connection with this Contract shall be deemed to be a waiver of the sovereign immunity of CIHA or the

Tribe.

14.10.

Contractor hereby acknowledges and irrevocably consents to the exclusive personal and

subject matter jurisdiction of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation Tribal Court or other

Tribal dispute resolution entity or mechanism of the Tribe over any dispute, suit or other legal action that

may be filed relating to the Contract, provided that this provision shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the

sovereign immunity of the Tribe or CIHA, which immunity is hereby expressly asserted, and provided

further that any order, judgment or award of such Court or dispute resolution entity or mechanism in favor

of CIHA and against Contractor may be registered or enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

16.1.

Non-Federal Prevailing Wage Rates. Any prevailing wage rate (including basic hourly

rate and any fringe benefits), determined under State law to be prevailing, with respect to any employee in

any trade or position employed under the Contract, is inapplicable to the Contract and shall not be

enforced against the Contractor or any subcontractor, with respect to employees engaged under the

determined by the Secretary of Labor pursuant to the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141 et seq.) to be

prevailing in the locality with respect to such trade; (ii) An applicable apprentice wage rate based thereon

specified in an apprenticeship program registered with the DOL or a DOL-recognized State

trainee program

16.2.

work provided under this Contract, those laws, regulations, and rates shall govern. If not, then the

remainder of this Article 16 shall apply.

16.3.

Minimum Wages. Contractor will pay prevailing wages as required by 25 U.S.C. § 4114

of the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act. All labor furnished for the work

provided in the Agreement shall be at or above the current prevailing wage rates determined by Secretary

of Labor under the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts of 1931 (40 U.S.C. §3141 et. seq.), as promulgated in

Contract in the construction or development of the project(s) involved will be paid unconditionally and not

less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except such

payroll deductions as are permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland

Act (29 C.F.R. Part 3)), the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents

thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination

of the Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual

relationship which may be alleged to exist between the Contractor and such laborers and mechanics.

Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under Section 1(b)(2) of

Colville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

Page 19 of 25

the Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or

mechanics, subject to the provisions of 29 C.F.R. 5.5(a)(1)(iv); also, regular contributions made or costs

incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs

which cover the regular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such

weekly period. Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits in

the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as

provided in 29 C.F.R. 5.5(a)(4). Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification

may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein;

provided, that the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in

which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classification and wage rates

conformed under 29 C.F.R. 5.5(a)(1)(ii) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH-1321) shall be posted at all

times by the Contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place

where it can be easily seen by the workers.

16.3.1.

Any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the

wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract shall be classified in conformance

with the wage determination. HUD shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe

benefits therefor only when all the following criteria have been met: (i) The work to be performed by the

classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; (ii) The

classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and (iii) The proposed wage rate,

including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the

wage determination.

16.3.2.

If the Contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the

classification (if known), or their representatives, and HUD or its designee agree on the classification and

wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action

shall be sent by HUD or its designee to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employee

Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an

authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within

30 days of receipt and so advise HUD or its designee or will notify HUD or its designee within the 30-day

period that additional time is necessary.

16.3.3.

In the event the Contractor, the laborers, or mechanics to be employed in the

classification or their representatives, and HUD or its designee do not agree on the proposed classification

and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), HUD or its

designee shall refer the questions, including the views of all interested Parties and the recommendation of

HUD or its designee, to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division for determination. The

Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so

advise HUD or its designee or will notify HUD or its designee within the 30-day period that additional

time is necessary.

16.3.4.

The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant

to this clause shall be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the

first day on which work is performed in the classification.

16.4.

Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or

mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the Contractor shall either

pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an

hourly cash equivalent thereof.

16.5.

If the Contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the Contractor

may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably

anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program; provided, that the Secretary of

Labor has found, upon the written request of the Contractor, that the applicable standards of the DavisColville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

Page 20 of 25

Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the Contractor to set aside in a separate

account asset for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.

16.6.

Withholding of Funds. CIHA shall, upon its own action or upon written request of an

authorized representative of the DOL, withhold or cause to be withheld from the Contractor under this

contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime Contractor, or any other Federally-assisted

contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime

Contractor, so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers

and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the Contractor or any

subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer

or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed, or working in the construction or

development of the project, all or part of the wages required by the contract, HUD or its designee may,

after written notice to the Contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any

further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. HUD or its designee

may, after written notice to the Contractor, disburse such amounts withheld for and on account of the

Contractor or subcontractor to the respective employees to whom they are due.

16.7.

Payrolls and Basic Records.

16.7.1.

Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the Contractor

during the course of the work and preserved for a period of five years thereafter for all laborers and

mechanics working in the construction or development of the project. Whenever the Secretary of Labor

has found, under 29 C.F.R. 5.5(a)(1)(iv), that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of

costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in Section 1(b)(2)(B)

of the Davis-Bacon Act, the Contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide

such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or

program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show

the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits.

16.7.2.

The Contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is

performed a copy of all payrolls to the Contracting Officer. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately

and completely all of the information required to be maintained under subparagraph 16.6.1 of this clause.

This information may be submitted in any form desired. Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by

a “Statement of Compliance,” signed by the Contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or

supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following: (i) That

the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be maintained under this clause and

that such information is correct and complete; (ii) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper,

apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly

wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either

directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in 29

C.F.R. Part 3; and (iii) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates

and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the

applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.

16.7.3.

The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the Contractor or

subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18 and Section 3729 of Title 31

of the United States Code.

16.7.4.

The Contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under this clause

available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of CIHA, HUD or its

designee, the Contracting Officer, or the DOL and shall permit such representatives to interview

employees during working hours on the job. If the Contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required

records or to make them available, CIHA or its designee may, after written notice to the Contractor, take

such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of

Colville Indian Housing Authority

Small Purchase Construction Contract—Federal Funds

funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available

may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 5.12.

16.8.

Apprentices.

16.8.1.

Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the

work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide

apprenticeship program registered with the DOL, Employment and Training Administration, Office of

Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services (OATELS), or with a State Apprenticeship

Agency recognized by OATELS, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary

employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the

program, but who has been certified by OATELS or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to

be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice.

16.8.2.

The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft

classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the Contractor as to the entire work force

under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not

registered or otherwise employed as stated in this paragraph, shall be paid not less than the applicable

wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any

apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program

shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually

performed. Where a Contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in

which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman’s

hourly rate) specified in the Contractor’s or subcontractor’s registered program shall be observed. Every

apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice’s

level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage

determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the

apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must

be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification.

If the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that a different practice prevails for the

applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the

event OATELS, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by OATELS, withdraws approval of an

apprenticeship program, the Contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the

applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

16.9.

Trainees.

16.9.1.

Except as provided in 29 C.F.R. 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at

less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and

individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, as evidenced by formal

certification by the DOL, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen

on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and

Training Administration.

16.9.2.

Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved

program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate

specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with

the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees

shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed in the wage determination unless the Administrator of

the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the

corresponding journeyman wage rate in the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe

benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and

participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not

less than the applicable wage rate in the wage determination for the classification of work actually

performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under

the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate in the wage determination for

================================================================

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave

for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the

Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any

solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this

contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide

employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours

they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.

Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their

own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including

preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is

like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other

health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons

resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is

like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic

violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information

on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO

is available at

https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.

Note: Executive Order 13658 generally applies to contracts

subject to the Davis-Bacon Act that were awarded on or between

January 1, 2015 and January 29, 2022, and that have not been

renewed or extended on or after January 30, 2022. Executive

Order 13658 does not apply to contracts subject only to the

Davis-Bacon Related Acts regardless of when they were awarded.

If a contract is subject to Executive Order 13658, the

contractor must pay all covered workers at least $13.30 per

hour (or the applicable wage rate listed on this wage

determination, if it is higher) for all hours spent performing

on the contract in 2025. The applicable Executive Order

minimum wage rate will be adjusted annually. Additional

information on contractor requirements and worker protections

under Executive Order 13658 is available at

www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within

the scope of the classifications listed may be added after

award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses

(29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).

---------------------------------------------------------------The body of each wage determination lists the classifications

and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the

type(s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage

determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical

order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular

rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate), a survey

rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a

supplemental classification rate.

Union Rate Identifiers

A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than

""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was

prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:

PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024. PLUM is an identifier of the union

whose collectively bargained rate prevailed in the survey for

this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers.

0198 indicates the local union number or district council

number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next

number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in

processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2024 in the

example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated

rate.

Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes

over time that are reported to WHD in the rates

in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the

classification.

Union Average Rate Identifiers

The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for

those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for

the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE:

UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024. UAVG indicates that the rate is a

weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of Ohio.

The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number

used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024

in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was

updated to reflect the most current union average rate.

A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January, to

reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the

collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based.

Survey Rate Identifiers

The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union

rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this

classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by

computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates

reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted

average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may

include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-007

6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union

prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that

classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the

year of the survey on which these classifications and rates are

based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal

number used in producing the wage determination. The date,

6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date

for the classifications and rates under that identifier.

?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey

is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the

discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6(c)(1).

State Adopted Rate Identifiers

The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and

prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were

adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007

01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted. ME

refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the

state completed the survey on which the listed classifications

and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an

internal number used in producing the wage determination.

The date, 01/03/2024 in the example, reflects the date on which

the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took

effect under state law in the state from which the rates were

adopted.

----------------------------------------------------------WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS

1) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can

be:

a) a survey underlying a wage determination

2) If an initial decision has been issued, then any interested

party (those affected by the action) that disagrees with the

decision can request review and reconsideration from the Wage

and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7).

Requests for review and reconsideration can be submitted via

email to dba.reconsideration@dol.gov or by mail to:

interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative

Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:
