All projects, excepting mass transit projects, must be on an approved Federal -aid Urban System route. 2. The project is part of a program which serves to implement an areawide plan held currently valid by the regional transportation policy board. 3. Federal funds may participate only in work which has been officially programmed to and authorized by the Federal Highway Admini- stration in advance of its performance. ARTICLE II -• FAU IMPROVEMENTS 1. The term "FAU IMPROVEMENT" as used herein means any construc- tion that is financed in part with federal funds provided in accordance with Section 106 of the Federal -aid Highway Act of 1970. 2. LOCAL AGENCY may submit for consideration and approval of STATE and Federal Highway Administration programs for FAU improve- ments when the following items have been completed: a. The Federal -aid Urban System Approved b. The project selected by a cooperative process and included in the area's approved 3 -year program. 3. The program shall be in a form prescribed by STATE and shall designate the federal funds requested and the matching funds to be provided by LOCAL AGENCY and if a State Highway is involved the matching funds to be provided by STATE. Adoption of the program by LOCAL AGENCY and approval by STATE shall cause such program to be a part of this agreement as though fully set forth herein. Unless otherwise delegated the program shall be approved by the LOCAL AGENCY'S governing body. Cooperative projects including work on a State highway shall be the subject of a separate cooperative agree- ment. 4. In processing FAU IMPROVEMENTS, LOCAL AGENCY will conform to all STATE statutes, regulations and procedures relating to the FAU program and to all applicable federal laws, regulations, and policy and procedural or instructional memoranda. This includes, but is not limited to, the holding; of public hearings when required, the publishing of various press notices and the preparation of plans, specifications and estimates. -2:- * FAU AGREEMENT 5. Unless otherwise designated in the approved program, FAU improvements will be constructed by contract in accordance with regular federal -aid primary and urban fund procedures. Such proce- dures require the use of Standard Specifications having prior Federal Highway Administration approval, FHWA approval of plans, special pro- visions and estimated costs prior to advertisement, a certification by LOCAL AGENCY with respect to the right of way advertisement for a minimum of 3 weeks prior to bid opening, and prior FHWA concurrence in the award and acceptance of the contract. The contract will be awarded by LOCAL AGENCY, its agent, or by STATE as may be determined between the parties prior to each project advertisement. 6. When a FAU IMPROVEMENT includes work to be performed by a railroad, the contract for such work shall be entered into by LOCAL AGENCY or by STATE, as parties hereto agree. A contract entered into by LOCAL AGENCY for such work must have prior approval of STATE and the FHWA (if Federal funds are used). In either event, LOCAL AGENCY shall enter into an agreement with the railroad providing for maintenance of the protective devices or other facilities installed under the service contract. 7. LOCAL AGENCY shall provide or arrange for adequate super- vision and inspection of each FAU improvement, including contracts awarded by STATE. With prior Federal Highway Administration approval, surveying, inspection and testing may be performed by a consulting engineer provided overall supervision of the contractor's operations and progress is performed by an employee or employees of LOCAL AGENCY. 8. STATE shall exercise general supervision over FAU improve- ments and may assume full and direct control over the project when- ever STATE, at its sole discretion, shall determine that its respon- sibility to the United States so requires. LOCAL AGENCY contracts shall so stipulate. ARTICLE III - RIGHTS OF WAY 1. No contract for the construction of a FAU IMPROVEMENT shall be awarded until the necessary rights of way have been secured. Prior to the advertising of a project on a local street, LOCAL AGENCY shall certify and upon request shall furnish STATE with evidence that necessary rights of way are available for construction purposes or will be available by the time of contract award. -3- I FAU AGREEMENT 2. LOCAL AGENCY agrees to hold STATE harmless from any liability which may result in the event the right of way is not clear as certified. The furnishing of right of way as provided for herein includes, in addition. to all real property required for the improvement, free and clear of obstructions and encumbrances, the payment of damages to real property not actually taken but injuriously affected by the proposed improvement. LOCAL AGENCY shall pay from its funds any costs which arise out of delays to the contractor because utility facilities have not been removed or relocated, or because rights of way have not been made available to the contractor for the orderly prosecution of the work. 3. Subject to STATE approval and such supervision over LOCAL AGENCY'S right of way acquisition procedures as STATE may determine is necessary, LOCAL AGENCY may claim reimbursement from Federal funds for expenditures to purchase rights of way included in an approved program. 4. The LOCAL AGENCY will comply with Title III of the Uniform Real Property Acquisition Policy. 5. Whether or not Federal-aid is to be requested for right of way, should LOCAL AGENCY, in :acquiring right of way for FAU IMPROVEMENT, displace an individual, family, business, farm operation, or non - profit organization, relocation payments and services will be provided as set forth in Chapter 5 of Title 23, U. S. Code. The public will be adequately informed of the relo- cation payments and services which will be available and to the greatest extent practicable no person lawfully occupying real property shall be required to move from his dwelling or to move his business or farm operation without at least 90 -days written notice from the LOCAL AGENCY. LOCAL AGENCY will provide the State with specific assurance, on each project, that no person will be displaced until comparable decent, safe and sanitary replacement housing is available within a reasonable period of time prior to displacement, and that LOCAL AGENCY'S relocation program is realistic and is adequate to provide orderly, timely and efficient relocation of displaced persons for the project as provided in FHWA Instructional Memorandum 80- •1 -71, dated April 30, 1971. ARTICLE IV - FISCAL PROVISIONS 1. When an FAU IMPROVEMENT contract is to be awarded by STATE, matching funds will be provided by LOCAL AGENCY prior to the time that such funds are required to reimburse contractor. STATE will bill LOCAL AGENCY for amount due immediately following contract award or at option of LOCAL AGENCY will submit monthly bills during life of contract. -4- FAU AGREEMENT 2. The estimated total cost of FAU projects, the amounts of Federal -aid programmed, and the matching amounts agreed upon may be adjusted by mutual consent of the parties hereto, provided funds are available to cover increases and provided Federal Highway Administration concurs in any increase in the Federal -aid. However, this is not to be construed to mean that the original programmed participation percentage ratio will be changed. 3. Upon submittal by LOCAL AGENCY of a statement of expendi- tures for FAU improvements, STATE will pay its agreed share and will advance an amount equal to the legal pro rata federal share of the costs believed to be eligible for participation with federal funds and will voucher Federal Highway Administration for subsequent reimbursement. 4. LOCAL AGENCY shall use "nonfederal" funds to finance the local share of eligible costs and expenditures ruled ineligible for financing with federal funds. STATE shall make preliminary determination of eligibility for federal fund financing. Ultimate determination shall rest with the Federal Highway Administration. Any overpayment of amounts due shall be returned to STATE upon demand. 5. When any portion of a LOCAL AGENCY project is performed by STATE, charges therefor shall include assessment on direct labor costs in accordance with Section 8755.1 of the State Administrative Manual. The portion of such charges not financed with Federal funds shall be paid from funds of LOCAL AGENCY. 6. Should LOCAL AGENCY fail to pay monies due STATE within 30 days of demand or within such other period as may be agreed between the parties hereto, STATE, acting through State Controller, may withhold an equal amount from future apportionments due LOCAL AGENCY from the Highway Users Tax Fund. 7. Auditors of STATE and the United States shall be given access to LOCAL AGENCY'S books and records and shall be given such assistance and information as is requested for the purpose of checking costs paid or to be paid by STATE hereunder.
