necessary to perform the project which is described and set forth in detail in the
"Project Description" and "Type of Work."
When the State acts for and on behalf of the Agency, the State shall be
deemed an agent of the Agency and shall perform the services described and
indicated in "Type of Work" on the face of this agreement, in accordance with
plans and specifications as proposed by the Agency and approved by the State
and the Federal Highway Administration.
When the State acts for the Agency but is not subject to the right of control
by the Agency, the State shall have the right to perform the work subject to the
ordinary procedures of the State and Federal Highway Administration,
II. Delegation of Authority
The State is willing to fulfill the responsibilities to the Federal Government
by the administration of this project. The Agency agrees that the State shall
have the full authority to carry out this administration. The State shall review,
process, and approve documents required for federal aid reimbursement in
accordance with federal requirements. If the State advertises and awards the
contract, the State will further act for the Agency in all matters concerning the
project as requested by the Agency. If the Local Agency advertises and awards
the project, the State shall review the work to ensure conformity with the
approved plans and specifications.
III. Project Administration
Certain types of work and services shall be provided by the State on this
project as requested by the Agency and described in the Type of Work above.
In addition, the State will furnish qualified personnel for the supervision and
inspection of the work in progress. On Local Agency advertised and awarded
projects, the supervision and inspection shall be limited to ensuring all work is
in conformance with approved plans, specifications, and federal aid
requirements. The salary of such engineer or other supervisor and all other
salaries and costs incurred by State forces upon the project will be considered a
cost thereof. All costs related to this project incurred by employees of the State
in the customary manner on highway payrolls and vouchers shall be charged as
costs of the project.
IV. Availability of Records
All project records in support of all costs incurred and actual expenditures
kept by the Agency are to be maintained in accordance with local government
accounting procedures prescribed by the Washington State Auditor's Office, the
U.S. Department of Transportation, and the Washington State Department of
Transportation. The records shall be open to inspection by the State and Federal
Government at all reasonable times and shall be retained and made available for
such inspection for a period ofnot less than three years from the final payment
of any federal aid funds to the Agency. Copies of said records shall be
furnished to the State and/or Federal Government upon request.
V. Compliance with Provisions
The Agency shall not incur any federal aid participation costs on any
classification of work on this project until authorized in writing by the State for
each classification. The classifications of work for projects are:
1. Preliminary engineering.
2. Right of way acquisition.
3. Project construction.
In the event that right of way acquisition, or actual construction of the road,
for which preliminary engineering is undertaken is not started by the closing of
the tenth fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the agreement is
executed, the Agency will repay to the State the sum or sums of federal funds
paid to the Agency under the terms of this agreement (see Section IX).
The Agency agrees that all stages of construction necessary to provide the
initially planned complete facility within the limits of this project will conform
to at least the minimum values set by approved statewide design standards
applicable to this class of highways, even though such additional work is
financed without federal aid participation.
The Agency agrees that on federal aid highway construction projects, the
current federal aid regulations which apply to liquidated damages relative to
the basis of federal participation in the project cost shall be applicable in the
event the contractor fails to complete the contract within the contract time.
VI. Payment and Partial Reimbursement
The total cost of the project, including all review and engineering costs and
other expenses of the State, is to be paid by the Agency and by the Federal
Government. Federal funding shall be in accordance with the Federal
Transportation Act, as amended, and Office of Management and Budget
circulars A -102, A -87 and A -133. The State shall not be ultimately responsible
for any of the costs of the project. The Agency shall be ultimately responsible
for all costs associated with the project which are not reimbursed by the
Federal Government. Nothing in this agreement shall be construed as a
promise by the State as to the amount or nature of federal participation in this
project.
The Agency shall bill the state for federal aid project costs incurred in
conformity with applicable federal and state laws. The agency shall minimize
the time elapsed between receipt of federal aid funds and subsequent payment
of incurred costs. Expenditures by the Local Agency for maintenance, general
administration, supervision, and other overhead shall not be eligible for federal
participation unless a current indirect cost plan has been prepared in
accordance with the regulations outlined in the federal Office of Management
& Budget (OMB) circular A -87, and retained for audit.
The State will pay for State incurred costs on the project. Following
payment, the State shall bill the Federal Government for reimbursement of
those costs eligible for federal participation to the extent that such costs are
attributable and properly allocable to this project. The State shall bill the
Agency for that portion of State costs which were not reimbursed by the
Federal Government (see Section IX).
1. Project Construction Costs
Project construction financing will be accomplished by one of the three
methods as indicated in this agreement.
DOT Form 140 -939 EF
Revised 09/2008
1 \•
Method A —The Agency will place with the State, within (20) days after the
execution of the construction contract, an advance in the amount of the
Agency's share of the total construction cost based on the contract award. The
State will notify the Agency of the exact amount to be deposited with the State.
The State will pay all costs incurred under the contract upon presentation of
progress billings from the contractor. Following such payments, the State will
submit a billing to the Federal Government for the federal aid participation
share of the cost. When the project is substantially completed and final actual
costs of the project can be determined, the State will present the Agency with a
final billing showing the amount due the State or the amount due the Agency.
This billing will be cleared by either a payment from the Agency to the State or
by a refund from the State to the Agency.
Method B— The Agency's share of the total construction cost as shown on
the face of this agreement shall be withheld from its monthly fuel tax
allotments. The face of this agreement establishes the months in which the
withholding shall take place and the exact amount to be withheld each month.
The extent of withholding will be confirmed by letter from the State at the time
of contract award. Upon receipt of progress billings from the contractor, the
State will submit such billings to the Federal Government for payment of its
participating portion of such billings.
Method C — The Agency may submit vouchers to the State in the format
prescribed by the State, in duplicate, not more than once per month for those
costs eligible for Federal participation to the extent that such costs are directly
attributable and properly allocable to this project. Expenditures by the Local
Agency for maintenance, general administration, supervision, and other
overhead shall not be eligible for Federal participation unless claimed under
previously approved indirect cost plan.
The State shall reimburse the Agency for the Federal share of eligible project
costs up to the amount shown on the face of this agreement. At the time of
audit, the Agency will provide documentation of all costs incurred on the
project.
The State shall bill the Agency for all costs incurred by the State relative to
the project. The State shall also bill the Agency for the federal funds paid by the
State to the Agency for project costs which are subsequently determined to be
ineligible for federal participation (see Section IX).
VII. Audit of Federal Consultant Contracts
The Agency, if services of a consultant are required, shall be responsible for
audit of the consultant's records to determine eligible federal aid costs on the
project. The report of said audit shall be in the Agency's files and made
available to the State and the Federal Government.
An audit shall be conducted by the WSDOT Internal Audit Office in
accordance with generally accepted governmental auditing standards as issued
by the United States General Accounting Office by the Comptroller General of
the United States; WSDOT Manual M 27 -50, Consultant Authorization,
Selection, and Agreement Administration; memoranda of understanding
between WSDOT and FHWA; and Office of Management and Budget Circular
A -133.
If upon audit it is found that overpayment or participation of federal money
in ineligible items of cost has occurred, the Agency shall reimburse the State for
the amount of such overpayment or excess participation (see Section IX).
VIII. Single Audit Act
The Agency, as a subrecipient of federal funds, shall adhere to the federal
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A -133 as well as all
applicable federal and state statutes and regulations. A subrecipient who
expends $500,000 or more in federal awards from all sources during a given
fiscal year shall have a single or program- specific audit performed for that year
in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A -133. Upon conclusion of
the A -133 audit, the Agency shall be responsible for ensuring that a copy of the
report is transmitted promptly to the State.
IX. Payment of Billing
The Agency agrees that if payment or arrangement for payment of any of the
State's billing relative to the project (e.g., State force work, project cancellation,
overpayment, cost ineligible for federal participation, etc.) is not made to the
State within 45 days after the Agency has been billed, the State shall effect
reimbursement of the total sum due from the regular monthly fuel tax
allotments to the Agency from the Motor Vehicle Fund. No additional Federal
project funding will be approved until full payment is received unless otherwise
directed the Assistant Secretary for Highways and Local Programs.
X. Traffic Control, Signing, Marking, and Roadway
Maintenance
The Agency will not permit any changes to be made in the provisions for
parking regulations and traffic control on this project without prior approval of
the State and Federal Highway Administration, The Agency will not install or
permit to be installed any signs, signals, or markings not in conformance with
the standards approved by the Federal Highway Administration and MUTCD.
The Agency will, at its awn expense, maintain the improvement covered by
this agreement.
