Bid Bonds shall be required for this project. The successful bidder shall be required to furnish a Payment Bond

and a Performance Bond and certificates of liability and property damage insurance. The amounts of liability and

property damage insurance will not be less than the amounts shown in the Contract and shall also include the

Bidders are urged to obtain DBE participation on this project, although there are no specific goals for DBE

The City of Grass Valley hereby notifies all bidders that it will affirmatively ensure that in any contract entered

into pursuant to this advertisement, disadvantaged business enterprises will be afforded full opportunity to submit

bids in response to this invitation and will not be discriminated against on the grounds of race, color, or national

origin in consideration for an award.

Pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing rate of wages for Nevada County have been

determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). These wages are set forth

in the General Prevailing Wage Rates for this project, may be examined at the office of the Engineering Division,

City of Grass Valley and are available from the California Department of Industrial Relations’ Internet web site at

http://www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD. The Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates in effect on the date the

work is accomplished will apply to work done under this Contract.

A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the

requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for

public work, as defined in this chapter, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant

to Labor Code Section 1725.5 . It is not a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid

that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section 10164 or 20103.5 of the

Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code

Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.

The Federal minimum wage rates for this project as predetermined by the United States Secretary of Labor are set

forth in the Bid book and in copies of this book that may be examined at the offices described above where

project plans, special provisions, and bid forms may be seen. Addenda to modify the Federal minimum wage

rates, if necessary, will be issued to holders of Bid book. Future effective general prevailing wage rates, which

have been predetermined and are on file with the California Department of Industrial Relations are referenced but

not printed in the general prevailing wage rates.

Attention is directed to the Federal minimum wage rate requirements in the Bid book. If there is a difference

between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general prevailing wage rates

determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations for similar classifications of

labor, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the higher wage rate. The Department will not

accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This

includes "helper" (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing

in the Federal wage determinations. Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage rate

determination otherwise available for use by the Contractor and subcontractors, the Contractor and subcontractors

shall pay not less than the Federal minimum wage rate, which most closely approximates the duties of the

employees in question.
