A project of national significance Critical link between Canada and Mexico dependent on an old, vulnerable bridge Connects interstate system with access to deep water shipping, upriver barging, two ports, two waterlevel rail lines, and air transport. One of the worst freight bottlenecks in the nation $40 billion in freight crosses bridge; $71 billion by 2030 4

Long-term solution Replace I-5 bridge Improve safety and capacity in 5-mile corridor and interchanges Connect light rail to Vancouver 9
Economic Benefit Analysis The value of benefits of the locally preferred alternative is $5-7 billion. Economic impacts (compared to no build scenario): Result in the creation of 4,200 jobs and $231 million in additional wages in 2030 compared to the no build scenario. Save travelers about 6.8 million hrs/ year in reduced vehicle delay. Estimated traveler savings will exceed $435 million in 2030 Reduced congestion will improve business access to larger markets for goods/services and a larger labor market to draw skilled workers The project will eliminate the risk of catastrophic loss of the existing bridges in an earthquake.

Labor Standards and Compliance Understanding responsibilities and rights when performing public work Diana Foster ODOT Labor Compliance Officer
Public Works Contracting Prevailing Wage Requirements Davis-Bacon & Related Acts (DBRA) apply to federal-aid construction contracts of $2,000 or more. Bureau of Labor & Industries (BOLI) Prevailing Wage Rate Law applies to state-funded projects of $50,000 or more.
WHY?
Public Works Contracting Ensures workers on public construction projects are paid the appropriate wage and fringe for the classification of the work they are performing. Allows contractors to compete for projects based on their ability to perform the work while maintaining community based compensation standards.
HOW?
Contractor s Responsibilities Maintain basic payroll records during the course of the project. Submit accurate and complete payroll records weekly to the Project Manager, including payroll records for all subcontractors on the project. Include a Statement of Compliance (required by the Copeland Act and 29 C.F.R., Part 3) certifying the payroll records are correct and complete.
Contractor s Responsibilities Make payroll records available for inspection by the contracting agency, BOLI, Federal Highway Administration, and U.S. Department of Labor. Preserve the payroll records for three years beyond the completion of the project.
Contracting Agency s Responsibilities Performed through Project Manager s Offices Examine contractor s certified payroll reports for completeness and accuracy. Review time sheets, time cards, personnel records, and daily logs to give reasonable assurance no discrepancies exist on payroll reports. Compare wage rates against those rates listed on the applicable wage determination. Check for contributions to fringe benefit plans.
Contracting Agency s Responsibility Provide prompt notice to the prime contractor of errors and omissions on the payroll reports. Identify corrections needed and request a revised corrected payroll report. Provide prompt notice to the prime contractor if payroll reports are not received, not received timely, or not made available for inspection. Take appropriate action, as needed, to enforce terms of the contract.
Labor Compliance Officer s Responsibilities Agency s point of contact for US Department of Labor, the state s Bureau of Labor & Industries, and Federal Highway Administration for wage and hour issues. Hold quarterly meetings with BOLI Wage & Hour Division staff for status updates, changes to law, and progress of investigations. Provide wage complaint tracking for trends and potential future training topics. Provide semi-annual reporting to Federal Highway Administration on labor compliance enforcement.
Labor Compliance Officer s Responsibilities Cont. Provide training workshops for contractors and agency staff relating to contract administration and requirements for labor compliance components Perform random audits statewide to monitor effectiveness of certified payroll reviews and to enforce overall labor compliance
