The Director of Industrial Relations has determined the general prevailing rate of per diem wages in San
Bernardino County for each craft or type of worker needed to execute the Agreement, copies of which are on file
and will be made available to any interested party online at http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr. A copy of these rates
shall be posted by the successful Proposer at the job site. The successful Proposer, and all its subcontractor(s),
shall comply with all applicable Labor Code provisions, which include, but are not limited to the payment of not
less than the required prevailing rates to all workers employed by them in the execution of the Agreement, the
employment of apprentices, the hours of labor and the debarment of contractors and subcontractors.
Pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and subcontractors that wish to bid on, be
listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a contract to perform public work must be registered with the Department
of Industrial Relations. No proposal will be accepted nor will any contract be entered into without proof of the
contractor’s and subcontractors’ current registration with the Department of Industrial Relations to perform public
work. If awarded a contract, the proposer, and its subcontractors, of any tier, shall maintain active registration
with the Department of Industrial Relations for the duration of the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
contractor registration requirements mandated by Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1 shall not apply to
work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in
Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1.
This Project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. In
bidding on this Project, it shall be the Proposer’s sole responsibility to evaluate and include the cost of complying
with all labor compliance requirements under the Agreement and applicable law in its proposal. The California
Air Resources Board (“CARB”) implemented amendments to the In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets
Regulations (“Regulation”) which are effective on January 1, 2024 and apply broadly to all self-propelled off road
diesel vehicles 25 horsepower or greater and other forms of equipment used in California. A copy of the
Regulation is available at https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/barcu/regact/2022/off-roaddiesel/appa-1.pdf.
Proposers are required to comply with all CARB and Regulation requirements, including, without limitation, all
applicable sections of the Regulation, as codified in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations section 2449
et seq. throughout the duration of the Project. Proposers must provide, with their proposal, copies of Proposer’s
and all listed subcontractors’ most recent, valid Certificate of Reported Compliance (“CRC”) issued by CARB.
Failure to provide valid CRCs as required herein may render the Proposal non-responsive.
The award of this contract is subject to available budget adequate to carry out the provisions of the proposed
agreement including the identified scope of services. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals
determined not to be in the best interest of the City.
