Adherence of the Department to these provisions by the FHWA is required under federal law. This special provision addresses the actions required of the Contractor to protect the above mentioned bird species as required by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. E-Verify is an Internet-based system that allows an employer, using information reported on an employee's Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to determine the eligibility of that employee to work in the United States. There is no charge to employers to use E-Verify. The E-Verify system is operated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration. E-Verify is available in Spanish. The State of Michigan is requiring all Contractors, and Subcontractors, to verify that new employees are legally present and authorized to work in the United States, using the E-Verify System. Information on registration for and use of the E-Verify program can be obtained via the Internet at the DHS Web site: http://www.dhs.gov/E-Verify. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to include this specification in all tiers of subcontracts. The required use of the E-Verify system will not be paid for separately as part of the contract but is considered included in the costs for other pay items in the contract. Ensure all levels of contracting (prime, sub, sub-sub, etc.) comply with all labor compliance requirements in this contract.

This work consists of handling, transporting, disposing of non-hazardous contaminated material, including all laboratory testing required for the proper disposal of the material and site restoration of temporary storage locations. Ensure this special provision is not employed without authorization by the Engineer. The laboratory testing will be used to solicit landfill approval and is not intended to determine whether or not the material is contaminated. Soil delineated on the plans and classified as non-hazardous contaminated cannot be used elsewhere on the project regardless of the laboratory test results unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. This special provision establishes negative adjustments related to the failure to properly install and maintain soil erosion and sedimentation control (SESC) measures and the conditions under which these adjustments will be determined and applied. Nothing in this special provision modifies section 107 of the Standard Specifications for Construction. Delays to the project as a result of the Contractor conducting corrective actions for SESC measures do not constitute a valid reason for an extension of time. Ensure deficiencies with SESC measures are corrected in the time frame stated herein. For those deficiencies not corrected within the stated time frame, the Engineer will make a negative adjustment to the contract as stated herein.

One pedestrian Type II barricade is defined as a barricade section at least 43 inches wide, including all supports, ballast, and hardware. This work requires the sampling and testing of grass seed and grass seed mixes for each lot on all projects that include more than 24,200 square yards (5 acres) or 1100 pounds of cool season grass(es) by an independent seed testing laboratory prior to placement. If the Engineer suspects a problem with quality and mix design, sampling and testing frequency may be increased. Tags from seed bags are not a substitution for testing results. For this project, regardless of the application, the use of industrial byproducts covered in 2014 PA 178 is prohibited unless the use and application of a particular material is covered elsewhere in the contract. The Contractor may substitute Type IL Portland cement in lieu of Type I Portland cement for concrete mixtures and other applications where Type I Portland cement is specified, provided documentation showing specification compliance is provided as described herein. The Contractor must provide the Engineer a minimum of 14 calendar days prior notification of their intent to substitute Type IL Portland cement in lieu of Type I Portland cement for the project.
