Practices Act, California Public Contract Code section 4100 et seq.

In accordance with California Public Contract Code section 22300, the District will permit the

substitution of securities for any monies withheld by the District to ensure performance under the

Contract. At the request and expense of the Contractor, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall

Each bidder’s bid must be accompanied by one of the following forms of bidder’s security: (1)

cash; (2) a cashier’s check made payable to the District; (3) a certified check made payable to the District;

contract for public work, as defined in the Labor Code, 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

registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.

provide, with their Bid, copies of the Bidder’s and all listed subcontractors’ most recent and valid

Certificate(s) of Reported Compliance (“CRC”) issued by the CARB. Any Bidder’s failure to provide

valid CRCs as required herein may render such Bidder’s Bid non-responsive. Additionally, any Bidder’s

failure to complete and submit the enclosed Fleet Compliance Certification form with its Bid, may render

such Bid non-responsive.

No bidder may withdraw any bid for a period of ninety (90) calendar days after the date set for

the opening of bids.

Separate payment and performance bonds, each in an amount equal to 100% of the total Contract

amount, are required, and shall be provided to the District prior to execution of the Contract and shall be
