officers, agents, and employees from any claim, loss, damage, cost, charge, or expense arising out of any
acts, action, error, neglect, or omission by the UAO, its agents, employees, or contractors during the
performance of the Agreement, whether direct or indirect, and whether to any person or property to which
FDOT or said parties may be subject, except that neither the UAO, its agents, employees, or contractors will
be liable under this section for damages arising out of the injury or damage to persons or property directly
caused by or resulting from the negligence of the FDOT or any of its officers, agents, or employees during the

the FDOT solely negligent shall excuse performance of this provision by the UAO. The UAO shall pay all
costs and fees related to this obligation and its enforcement by the FDOT. The FDOT's delay in notifying the
UAO of a claim shall not release UAO of the above duty to defend.
9. Miscellaneous

b. The Facilities shall at all times remain the property of and be properly protected and maintained by
the UAO in accordance with the current Utility Accommodation Manual in effect at the time the Plans
Package is prepared and the current utility permit for the Facilities; provided, however, that the UAO
shall not be obligated to protect or maintain any of the Facilities to the extent the FDOT's contractor
has that obligation as part of the Utility Work pursuant to the FDOT's specifications.
c. The FDOT may unilaterally cancel this Agreement for refusal by the UAO to allow public access to all
documents, papers, letters, or other material subject to the provisions of Chapter 119, Florida
Statutes, and made or received by the UAO in conjunction with this Agreement.
d. This Agreement constitutes the complete and final expression of the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, or negotiations with
respect thereto, except that the parties understand and agree that the FDOT has manuals and
written policies and procedures which may be applicable at the time of the Project and the relocation
of the Facilities.
e. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any provision hereof found to
be unlawful or unenforceable shall be severable and shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions hereof.

facsimile transmission, hand delivery, or express mail and shall be deemed to have been received by
the end of five business days from the proper sending thereof unless proof of prior actual receipt is
provided. The UAO shall have a continuing obligation to notify each District of the FDOT of the
appropriate persons for notices to be sent pursuant to this Agreement. Unless otherwise notified in

Utility Agency/Owner (UAO): City of Boynton Beach
During the performance of this Agreement, the Utility Agency Owner(UAO), for itself, its assignees and successors
in interest (hereinafter referred to as the UAO), agrees as follows:
(1) Compliance with Regulations: The UAO will comply with the Regulations of the FLORIDA
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (hereinafter referred to as the DEPARTMENT) relative to nondiscrimination
in Federally-assisted programs of the DEPARTMENT (Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 21, hereinafter
referred to as the "Regulations"), which are herein incorporated by reference and made a part of this contract.
(2) Nondiscrimination: The UAO, with regard to the work performed by it after award and prior to completion
of the UAO work, will not discriminate on the ground of race, color or national origin in the selection and retention of
subcontractors, including procurement of materials or leases of equipment. The UAO will not participate either directly
or indirectly in the discrimination prohibited by Section 21.5 of the Regulations, including employment practices when
the contract covers a program set forth in Appendix A & B of the Regulations.
(3) Solicitations: In all solicitations either by competitive bidding or negotiation made by the UAO for work to
be performed under a subcontract, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment, each potential
subcontractor or supplier shall be notified by the UAO of the UAO's obligations under this contract and the Regulations
relative to nondiscrimination on the ground of race, color or national origin.
(4) "Buy America" Requirements: The UAO will use domestic steel and/or iron products incorporated into
the finished work in compliance with the Buy America provisions of 23 CFR 635.410 as amended. As used in this
provision, "steel and/or iron products"means manufactured products that are predominately steel and/or iron products
and that are not otherwise exempt from Buy America requirements pursuant to rules and regulations of the Federal
Highway Administration. As used in this provision, "domestic" means products that are manufactured in the United
States which have not undergone any manufacturing process outside of the United States that modified the chemical
content, physical shape or size, or final finish of a product, beginning with the initial melting and continuing through final
shaping and coating. If a steel and/or iron product is taken outside the United States for any manufacturing process, it
becomes foreign source steel and/or iron products. The UAO may incorporate into the finished work foreign source
steel and/or iron products as long as the actual cost of such foreign products does not exceed 0.1% of the total amount
of this Agreement, or$2,500.00 whichever is greater. The UAO will retain documentation verifying compliance with the
Buy America provision of this Agreement for a period of 3 years after final payment of the finished work. Upon request,
the UAO will provide the documentation verifying compliance with the Buy America provision of this Agreement. The
UAO will provide a certification with the invoice that states the following: "The UAO certifies that all manufactured
products that are predominately steel and/or iron are domestic products in compliance with the Buy America provisions
of 23 CFR 635.410 as amended except for the foreign source steel and/or iron allowance of 0.1%of the total amount of
the agreement between the Florida Department of Transportation and the UAO, or$2,500.00 whichever is greater."
(5) Information and Reports: The UAO will provide all information and reports required by the Regulations,
or orders and instructions issued pursuant thereto, and will permit access to its books, records, accounts, other sources
of information, and its facilities as may be determined by the DEPARTMENT or the Federal Highway Administration to
be pertinent to ascertain compliance with such Regulations, orders and instructions. Where any information required of
the UAO is in the exclusive possession of another who fails or refuses to furnish this information, the UAO shall so
certify to the DEPARTMENT or the Federal Highway Administration as appropriate, and shall set forth what efforts it
has made to obtain the information.

(Appendix A of Assurances)
(6) Sanctions for Noncompliance: In the event of the UAO's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination
provisions of paragraphs (1)through (4), the DEPARTMENT shall impose such contract sanctions as it or the Federal
Highway Administration may determine to be appropriate, including, but not limited to:
(a) withholding of payments to the contractor under the Agreement until the UAO complies; and/or
(b) cancellation, termination or suspension of the Agreement, in whole or in part.
(7) Incorporation of Provisions: The UAO will include the provisions of paragraph (1) through (6) in every
subcontract, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment, unless exempt by the Regulations, order or
instructions issued pursuant thereto. The UAO will take such action with respect to any subcontract, procurement or
lease as the DEPARTMENT or the Federal Highway Administration may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions
including sanctions for noncompliance; provided, however, that in the event the UAO becomes involved in, or is
threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor, supplier or lessor as a result of such direction, the UAO may request the
State to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the State, and, in addition, the UAO may request the United
States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
