The undersigned Contractor, being duly sworn upon his/her/its oath, affirms under the penalties of perjury
that:
1. Contractor has not, nor has any other member, representative, or agent of the firm, company,
corporation or partnership represented by him, entered into any combination, collusion or agreement with
any person relative to the price to be bid by anyone at such letting nor to prevent any person from bidding
nor to induce anyone to refrain from bidding, and that this bid is made without reference to any other bid and
without any agreement, understanding or combination with any other person in reference to such bidding.
Contractor further says that no person or persons, firms, or corporation has, have or will receive directly or
indirectly, any rebate, fee, gift, commission or thing of value on account of such sale; and
2. Contractor certifies by submission of this proposal that neither contractor nor any of its principals
are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from
participation in this transaction by any Federal department or agency; and
3. Contractor has not, nor has any successor to, nor an affiliate of, Contractor, engaged in
investment activities in Iran.
For purposes of this Certification, "Iran" means the government of Iran and any agency
or instrumentality of Iran, or as otherwise defined at Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-5, as
amended from time -to -time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time -to -time, a Contractor
is engaged in investment activities in Iran if either:
i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty
million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in value in the energy sector of Iran;
or
ii. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, is a financial institution that extends
twenty million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in credit to another person for
forty-five (45) days or more, if that person will (i) use the credit to provides
goods and services in the energy sector in Iran; and (ii) at the time the
financial institution extends credit, is a person identified on list published by
the Indiana Department of Administration.
4. Contractor does not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien, nor retain any

Version 1/3/2025 Contractor's Bid for Public Works - 4
Contractor agrees that he/she/it shall enroll in and verify the work eligibility status of all of Contractor's
newly hired employees through the E-Verify Program as defined by I.C. 22-5-1.7-3. Contractor's
documentation of enrollment and participation in the E-Verify Program is included and attached as part of
this bid/quote; and
5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public contract to
certify that the subcontractors do not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien, nor retain
any employee or contract with a person that the subcontractor subsequently learns is an unauthorized alien,
and that the subcontractor has enrolled in and is participating in the E-Verify Program. The Contractor agrees
to maintain this certification throughout the term of the contract with the City of South Bend, and understands
that the City may terminate the contract for default if the Contractor fails to cure a breach of this provision
no later than thirty (30) days after being notified by the City.
6. Persons, firms, partnerships, corporations, associations, or joint venturers awarded a contract by the
City of South Bend through its agencies, boards, or commissions shall not discriminate against any employee
or applicant for employment in the performance of a City contract with respect to hire, tenure, terms,
conditions, or privileges of contract or employment, or any matter directly or indirectly related to contracting
or employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, gender expression, gender
identity, sexual orientation, or due to age or disability that does not affect that person's ability to perform the
work.
In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials, or any
combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts awarded under public
bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are not required by law, the City, its agencies, boards,
or commissions will consider the Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain participation by those
subcontractors certified by the State of Indiana as a Minority Business ("MBE") or as a Women's Business
Enterprise ("WBE") as a factor in determining the lowest, responsible, responsive bidder.
Contractors seeking the award of a City contract cannot be required to award a subcontract to an MWBE;
however, they may not unlawfully discriminate against said MBE/WBE. On goal -eligible contracts,
Contractors are required to either meet both MBE and WBE utilization goals or demonstrate that the
Contractor has made good faith efforts to obtain participation from MBE and WBE subcontractors. A finding
of noncompliance or a discriminatory practice shall prohibit that Contractor from being awarded a City
contract for a period of one (1) year from the date of such determination, and such determination may also
be grounds for terminating the contact to which the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.
7. The undersigned Contractor agrees that the following nondiscrimination commitment shall be made
a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South Bend, Indiana or any of its
agencies, boards or commissions.
Contractor agrees not to discriminate against or intimidate any employee or applicant for employment in the
performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter directly or indirectly related to
employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation,
handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of this provision may be regarded as material breach of
contract.
I, the undersigned bidder or agent as contractor on a public works project, understand my statutory
obligations to the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States (I.C. 5-16-8-1). I hereby
certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for this project will use steel products or foundry
products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I understand I have an affirmative duty to
notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not include the use of steel products or foundry products
made in the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a justification
to the City, subject to review and approval, why the cost of United States made steel or foundry products is
unreasonable. Prior to award and upon submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry
products made in the United States, the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination
if the price of United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations hereunder
Version 1/3/2025 Contractor's Bid for Public Works - 5
may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid
for public works are true and correct.

Good morning, this is Kale with Tarkett Sports Construction Central.
We are looking at bidding the Leeper Park Tennis Facility project in South Bend, Indiana. The job address is 837 N Lafayette Blvd, South Bend, IN 46601. We
are needing someone for the trucking side of things for this project. There will be a decent amount of haul off and haul in. We would most likely use you for
trucking out the demo work, which is asphalt millings, concrete demo, fence demo, etc. I think we would also possibly use you for trucking in the aggregate that
we need for the new tennis courts slab.
If you guys could please provide us with your trucking rates that would be great. Also, if you have any places for dumping all of this demo, a price for that would
be great, or any contact information for places we can reach out to.
Please let me know if you have any questions and/or concerns regarding this project.
Thank you,
Kale Jacobs

CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA
CONTRACTOR'S BID FOR PUBLIC WORK
RESPONSIBLE BIDDER CHECKLIST
Project Name VPA LEEPER COURT RECONSTRUCTION
Project No.
For Bids Due
124-022
May 13, 2025
Contractor Name: Tarkett Sports Construction — Central, LLC
The City seeks to enhance its ability to identify responsive and responsible bidders on all City public works
projects by institution of comprehensive submission requirements in compliance with State law. Quality
workmanship, efficient operation, safety, and timely completion of projects requires that all bidders meet
certain minimum requirements to be responsive and responsible bidders.
THIS FORM MUST BE SUBMITTED WITH YOUR BID.
**THIS FORM ONLY APPLIES TO BIDS GREATER THAN $250,000. **
INSTRUCTIONS:
If you are a pre -qualified bidder, complete Section I only.
If you are not a pre -qualified bidder, complete Section II only.
Section II acts as an application for pre -qualification. Submission of Section II will allow the bidder to be
considered for pre -qualification for bids with the City of South Bend Department of Public Works. Pre -
qualified bidders will then be exempt from a portion of the submission requirements outlined in Section 6-
71 of The Responsible Bidding Ordinance No. 10975-23 (hereinafter, "Responsible Bidding Ordinance")
for a period of twelve (12) months.
Thereafter, contractors who are pre -qualified must submit a complete application for continuation of "pre -
qualified" standing, on a form provided by the City ("Responsible Bidder Checklist (1) Pre -Qualified
Bidders") within twelve (12) months of obtaining pre -qualified standing. If the status of any item changes
within the twelve (12) months, it is the responsibility of the contractor to notify the City. Failure by any pre -
qualified contractor to submit its complete application for continuation of "pre -qualified" standing within the
time prescribed above shall result in automatic removal of the designation, effective immediately following
the twelve (12) months of pre -qualified standing.
However, the "removed" contractor or subcontractor shall still be permitted to bid on City public works
projects, though the contractor must submit all required documents under 6-71 until "pre -qualified" status
is re-established.
Please Note: The City reserves the right to request supplemental information from the bidder,
additional verification of any information provided by the bidder, and may also conduct random
inquiries of the bidder's current and previous customers regardless of pre -qualified standing.
It is the sole responsibility of the potential bidder to comply with all submission requirements applicable to
the bidder in Section 6-71 of the Responsible Bidding Ordinance no later than the date of the public bid
opening.
Version 1/3/2025 General Conditions - 11
POST BID SUBMISSIONS:
Post -bid submissions must be submitted in accordance with Section 6-72 of the Responsible Bidding
Ordinance. The post -bid submission requirements are as follows:
1. All bidders shall collect, maintain, and provide upon request, a current written list that discloses the
name, address, licensing status, and type of work for any subcontractor from whom the bidder has
accepted a bid and/or intends to hire on any part of the public work project, including individuals
performing work as independent contractors.
2. Each subcontractor, whose portion of the project is estimated to be at least two -hundred fifty
thousand dollars ($250,000.00), shall be required to adhere to the requirements of Section I of the
Responsible Bidder Ordinance as though it were bidding directly to the City, except that the
subcontractor shall submit the required information (including the name, address, and type of work)
to the successful bidder prior to the commencement of work.
3. Failure of a subcontractor to submit the required information shall not disqualify the successful
bidder from performing work on the project and shall not constitute a contractual default and/or
breach by the successful bidder. However, the City may withhold all payment otherwise due for
work performed by a subcontractor, until the subcontractor submits the required information and
the City approves such information.
4. The disclosure of a subcontractor list ("Disclosed Subcontractor(s)") to the City by a bidder shall
not create any rights in the Disclosed Subcontractor(s). Thus, a bidder may substitute another
subcontractor for a Disclosed Subcontractor by giving the City, upon request, written notice of the
name, address, licensing status, and type of work of the substitute subcontractor.
5. The successful bidder for projects greater than $250,000 and all subcontractors performing work
greater than $250,000 on a public works project are required to submit certified payroll utilizing the
federal form known as WH-347 or a similar form on a bi-weekly basis, submitted within 10 days
after the end of each bi-weekly payroll period. Certified payrolls shall identify the job title and craft
for each employee. Certified payrolls shall be submitted electronically.
Please Note: Submissions deemed inadequate, incomplete, or untimely by the City may result in
the automatic disqualification of the bid.
The City, after review of complete and timely submissions, shall, in its sole discretion, after taking into
account all information in the submission requirements, determine whether a bidder is responsive and
responsible, and provide a Pre -Qualification Verification Letter. The City specifically reserves the right to
utilize all information provided in the contractor's submission and any information obtained by the City
through its own independent verification of the information provided by the contractor.

4.0 FITNESS FOR DUTY
PCC Construction Group, LLC and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, "PCC") have a vital
interest in maintaining a work environment that promotes the health, welfare, and safety of our
employees and those with whom PCC employees are in contact. Employees are expected to be
fit for duty and no be under the influence of drugs or intoxicants poses unnecessary and
unacceptable safety and health risks, not only to the user but to all those who work with the user.
PCC has enacted and will carry out the reasonable measures it deems appropriate for ensuring
a drug and alcohol -free workplace.
PCC's Fitness for Duty Policy is detailed below. In summary, PCC's policy with respect to the use
or possession of drugs or intoxicants on PCC Property and reporting for work under the influence
of any intoxicant, is one of Zero Tolerance. Violation of this Policy will result in disciplinary action
up to and including termination, as explained below. If the individual who commits the violation is
a subcontractor employee, consultant, or any person working directly or indirectly on behalf of the
subcontractor subject to this Policy, they will be prohibited from further work on PCC projects. If
an employee believes that they cannot perform safely or effectively, they should inform their
supervisor.
The use, presence in one's system, possession, transfer, manufacture, dispensation, distribution,
sale of non- prescription drugs or alcoholic beverages or the misuse of prescription drugs on PCC
Property is not tolerated. No PCC employee, subcontractor (including subcontractor employees
or any person working directly or indirectly on behalf of the subcontractor), or visitor shall report
to work or to PCC Property under the influence of intoxicants. Any PCC employee violating this
policy will be terminated. In order to enforce this policy, all persons subject to the policy must take
a Fitness for Duty Test upon request and are required to do so within twenty-four (24) hours of
notification. Refusal to take the test will result in voluntary resignation for an employee. Non -
negative results from a Fitness for Duty Test may be grounds for termination of employment.
Further, PCC reserves the right to perform inspections of persons, personal property, or vehicles
located on PCC Property or jobsites in order to ensure a drug and alcohol -free workplace. If an
employee believes the non -negative result is in error, they may have another test performed at
the same facility, at their own cost. If the result returns negative, PCC will reimburse the employee
the cost of the test.
All searches, inspections, and testing will be performed with appropriate concern for personal
privacy, dignity, and confidentiality. The results of Fitness for Duty tests will be considered as
confidential and disseminated on a need -to- know only basis or as may be legally required or
permitted. Fitness for Duty test records shall not be maintained in personnel files. The discovery
1IPage

proper law enforcement agencies.
Employees (and applicants) subject to federal drug testing regulations (e.g., employees in safety
sensitive jobs or employees working on DOT -funded projects) will be tested pursuant to those
regulations, as well as this Fitness for Duty policy. PCC reserves the right to amend this Policy at
its sole discretion or as necessary to comply with contract requirements, union agreements, local,
state, or federal laws. PCC further reserves the right to change the testing limits and panel
procedures as advances in technology or other considerations warrant identification of the named
substances or additional substances in different concentrations or through different screening
techniques.
PCC recognizes that chemical dependency is a serious health problem and encourages all
employees to seek assistance for such problems prior to becoming subject to discipline under this
or other PCC policies. Reasonable efforts will be made to provide any accommodation requested
by an employee. Such requests will not excuse employees from future compliance with PCC
standards of conduct or performance. Appropriate procedures have been established to maintain
strict confidentiality.
Employees are responsible for conducting all aspects of their employment in compliance with the
Fitness for Duty Policy. All employees hired are required to sign the Acknowledgement, Consent,
and Agreement to Comply form as a condition of employment.

document the test, the subsequent results, and to attribute the test to the correct

method and procedure for screening Controlled Substances by a certified laboratory
or licensed medical facility as required by law. Urine sample collection will be
conducted with due regard to the privacy of the individual providing the sample and
in a manner reasonably calculated to prevent substitution or contamination of the
sample. When permissible by law and necessary for program management, urine
samples may be collected by trained, authorized PCC personnel.
i. Current approved methods for initial screening include EMIT (Enzyme Multiplied
Immunoassay Technique) screening at a laboratory.
ii. The method currently used for confirming specimens that initially tested non -
negative is gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).
iii. Appropriate procedures have been established to maintain a strict chain of
custody and to maintain confidentiality of all test results.
iv. PCC may change the methods for testing for Controlled Substances in its sole
discretion, subject to Federal Regulations.
1. Testing for Drugs and Alcohol
Applicants:
All offers of employment are contingent upon an Applicant receiving a negative result from a Fitness
for Duty Test. Pre- employment testing for PCC Sensitive Jobs will also include testing for alcohol.
A non -negative test result will require the specimen to be sent to a certified laboratory or medical
facility for review. Such a test is voluntary but refusing to take the test will mean that the Applicant
has voluntarily withdrawn their application for employment. Should the test for an Applicant who
has not started work reveal intoxicants at or above the Confirmatory Limits, any offer of
employment will be withdrawn. An Applicant who tests non -negative may be reconsidered for
employment after 180 days. However, if such person is hired, then they will be subjected to Return
to Duty Testing as deemed appropriate by PCC.
An Applicant will not be allowed to start work and will not be paid until receipt of a negative test
result. Should the test result indicate intoxicants at or above the Confirmatory Limits, that
Applicant will have voluntarily withdraw their application, and will not be eligible for
reconsideration for hire for 180 days. The Applicant may only be considered for rehire in all cases
with the prior approval of the Vice President of Human Resources.
Employees:
Employees are required to take a Fitness for Duty Test under the circumstances outlined below.
Employees will sign a Consent Form that will be maintained by PCC. If the form is not signed, an
Employee must still take all requested testing, or be subject to termination.
Incident Testing:
4 1 P a g e
All Employees involved in an Incident will be asked to take a Fitness for Duty Test
immediately following the Incident, unless Employee drug use is not likely to have
contributed to the Incident (e.g., bee sting or repetitive strain injury). Incident Testing will
also include testing for alcohol. If immediate testing is not possible, the test must be
performed within 24 hours of the incident. Such test is voluntary, but failure to take the
test results in voluntary resignation of position.
Reasonable Suspicion Testing:
Any Employee whose behavior is such that there is a reasonable suspicion the Employee
is using an intoxicant will be asked to submit to a Fitness for Duty Test. Such test is
voluntary, but failure to take the test results in voluntary resignation of position.
Random Testing:
A percentage of employee population will be required to take a Fitness for Duty Test at
unannounced times and places as permitted by law. The test population will be identified
through a procedure used to ensure equitable distribution in the selection process.
Selection for Random Testing is independent of any other provision or selection criteria for
any other testing (pre -employment, incident, PCC Sensitive Job, or reasonable suspicion)
under the Fitness for Duty Program. Such test is voluntary, but failure to take the test
results in voluntary resignation of position.
PCC Sensitive Job Random Testing:
At least once every six (6) months, 25% of the Employees in PCC Sensitive Jobs will be
required to take additional Random Testing for drugs and alcohol at unannounced times
and places as permitted by law. Such test is voluntary, but failure to take the test results
in voluntary resignation of position.
Periodic Site Testing:
The employee population at a selected construction site shall be required to take a Fitness
for Duty Test at unannounced times, places, and projects as permitted by law. Selection
for Periodic Site Testing is independent of any other provision or selection criteria for any
other testing (pre -employment, incident, PCC Sensitive Job, or reasonable suspicion)
under the Fitness for Duty Program. Such test is voluntary, but failure to take the test
results in voluntary resignation of position.
Return to Duty Testing:
If an Employee is terminated for a violation of the Fitness for Duty Policy and is rehired in
accordance with the terms of this Policy, they will be subject to all the types of testing listed
above and shall also be requested to submit to additional Fitness for Duty Testing from
time to time for a period of up to three years, as determined by PCC to ensure that the
Employee remains Intoxicant free.
• Re -hire Testing:
Any former PCC employee under consideration for rehire by PCC is subject to Fitness for
Duty Testing as an Applicant listed above.
Subcontractor Employee Testing:
Certain PCC projects may require all or a random portion of the Subcontractor personnel
which includes the Subcontractor employees and/or any person working directly or
indirectly on behalf of the Subcontractor to be tested under this Policy. This shall be
determined on a project -by -project basis and will be based on insurance, contract, and/or
5 1 P cue
client requirements and administered in accordance with applicable law.

Verification:
All Fitness for Duty Tests which show a presence of an Intoxicant in the initial screening will be
confirmed by retesting of the original specimen using a technique known as gas
chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or other verification technology. If the retest
reveals levels of Intoxicants beyond the Confirmatory Test Cutoff Limit (a positive result), the
Applicant/Employee will be contacted by the MRO. An applicant/employee may refute a non -
negative test result with an additional test using a portion of the original specimen. The additional
test must have been requested in writing within 24 hours (or the next business day) of the
applicant/employee being notified by PCC of the positive result from the initial Fitness for Duty
Test. The additional test must be at a certified laboratory or licensed medical facility approved by
PCC, and the Applicant/Employee must pay all costs associated with the additional test.
If the result of the retest is negative and if PCC is satisfied that the initial test was in error, PCC
may accept the negative result, and reimburse the cost of the additional test for the
Applicant/employee and the employee may return to work or the Applicant hired. Other tests such
as breathalyzer, saliva, hair, and blood tests may be subject to verification based on technology
and legal requirements. Refusal to submit a sample includes:
6 1 P a g e
Adulteration of the testing sample by addition of any substance to the testing sample that
is meant to mask orhide the presence of drugs or alcohol.
Failure to provide adequate testing sample for controlled substances testing without a
valid medical explanation after they have received notice of the requirement for testing in
accordance with the provisions of this part.
Failure to provide blood, urine, saliva, hair or breath for controlled substances or alcohol
testing without a valid medical explanation after they have received notice of the
requirement for blood or breath in accordance with the provisions of this part.
Engaging in conduct that clearly obstructs the testing process, and/or leaving the scene of an
on-the-job incident.
Substituting falsified (e.g., another individual's, synthetic, animal, etc.) urine, saliva, hair,
or blood in place of the person required to supply the sample.
Medication/Prescription Drugs/Physician's Care:
After submitting to a Fitness for Duty Test, an employee may voluntarily provide the Medical
Review Officer with documentation indicating that a positive result from the Fitness for Duty Test
could have been caused by ingesting medication or prescription drugs as directed by their
physician. If such evidence is presented to and accepted by the Medical Review Officer, a positive
test result will not result in termination unless intoxicant levels indicate dosages in an amount in
excess of that prescribed. Such information will be treated as strictly confidential. PCC does not
prohibit employees from using prescription or over-the-counter drugs when used as prescribed,
provided:
The prescription drugs are prescribed to the employee for medical reasons by a licensed
medical practitioner, with dosage and frequency of use prescribed on the label
documentation.
The employee's use of the prescription or over-the-counter drugs does not affect the
employee's job performance or conduct; threaten the safety, productivity, public image
or property of PCC or its employees; or result in criminal behavior.
No Employee is to perform any function or duty on behalf of PCC if the drugs being taken under
this provision adversely affect their ability to perform any such function or duty safely.
All employees must report, in writing, to Human Resources the use of prescribed or over-the-
counter medication that may affect their ability to work safely. Such information will be treated as
confidential and will be disseminated on a need -to -know basis only. PCC may restrict the
employee's work assignments while they continue to use such medication. Employees should
keep all medication in its original container which identifies the drug.
2. Disciplinary Rules
Penalties for Certain Violations Other Than a Non -Negative Fitness for Duty Test:
Possession, use, sale, transfer, manufacture, or distribution of a drug/alcohol while on
PCC Property or jobsites will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination
at PCC's sole discretion.
Criminal conviction based upon (a) sale, transfer, distribution, or possession with the intent
7 1 P a g e
to distribute drugs or (b) manufacture of drugs, will result in immediate termination. If an
Employee is convicted under any criminal drug statute for a violation, they must notify
PCC within five (5) days of the conviction. Failure of an employee to timely notify PCC
may result in termination. Prior to trial or a plea, an employee who is charged with any
such crime may, at PCC's discretion, be subject to suspension, Fitness for Duty Testing,
required counseling, termination, or other action.
Reporting to work at any location while under the influence of intoxicants may result in
immediate termination.
Using a PCC vehicle during non -working hours, or for personal reasons, while being under
the influence of intoxicants shall be the basis for disciplinary action, including counseling,
revocation of vehicle use, suspension or, if appropriate, termination at PCC's sole
discretion.

When a non -fatal accident occurs, any Covered Employees whose performance
either contributed to the accident or cannot be completely discounted as a
contributing factor to the accident, as determined by PCC using the best
information available at the time of the decision, shall be tested. A "non -fatal
accident" means an occurrence where an individual suffers a bodily injury and
immediately receives medical treatment away from the scene of the accident or
there is disabling damage to vehicle or other equipment.
ii. When there is a loss of human life (a fatal accident), each Covered Employee
whose performance could have contributed to the accident, as determined by
PCC using the best information available at the time of the decision, shall be
tested.
iii. In the case of a fatal accident involving a mass transit vehicle, (a) each surviving
Covered Employee on duty in the mass transit vehicle, and (b) Covered
Employees not on the vehicle whose performance could have contributed to the
accident, as determined by PCC using the best information available at the time
of the decision, shall be tested.
b. Timeframe for Testing Employees
i. Because certain drugs or drug metabolites do not remain in the body for
extended periods of time, the employee will be tested for Controlled Substances
as soon as practicable, but no later than thirty-two (32) hours after the accident.
Alcohol Tests should be conducted within 2 hours but must not be performed 8
hours after the incident.
ii. When performing Post -Accident Testing, the Alcohol Test must be completed
before the collection of a urine sample.
If an Alcohol Test is required but is not administered within two (2) hours
following the accident, PCC shall prepare and maintain on file a record stating
the reasons the test was not promptly administered. If a required Alcohol Test is
not administered within eight (8) hours following the accident, PCC shall cease
attempts to administer an Alcohol Test and shall state in the record the reasons
for not administering the test. These records shall be made available to FTA
upon request.
iv. The decision not to administer a test shall be based on PCC's determination,
using the best available information at the time of the determination, that the
Covered Employee's performance could not have contributed to the accident. A
Covered Employee who is subject to Post -Accident Testing and who fails to
remain readily available for such testing may be deemed to have refused to
submit to testing. Nothing in this section shall be construed to require the delay
of necessary medical attention for injured people following an accident or to
prohibit a Covered Employee from leaving the scene of an accident for the
period necessary to obtain assistance in responding to the accident or to obtain
necessary emergency medical care.
12��'
v. All reasonable steps will betaken to obtain a urine sample for the testing of
Controlled Substances from an employee after an accident.
1. In case of a conscious but hospitalized employee, the hospital or
medical facility will be requested to obtain a sample and, if necessary,
reference will be made to the DOT drug testing requirements.
2. If an employee who is subject to post -accident testing is conscious,
able to urinate normally (in the opinion of a medical professional) and
refuses to be tested, that will be considered a test refusal.
Reasonable Suspicion Testing
a. When there is reasonable suspicion to believe that a Covered Employee is using a
Controlled Substance or alcohol in violation of Section 4.05.02 of this Policy, the
employee will be required to take a Test for Controlled Substances and/or an Alcohol
Test.
i. The required observations for Reasonable Suspicion Testing shall be made by a
supervisor or PCC representative who is trained by the Employee Assistance
Program, or an equivalent program, in drug and/or alcohol use symptoms.
ii. The supervisor or PCC representative who requires the test may not administer
the test.
b. Reasonable Suspicion
i. A decision to test must be based on specific contemporaneous, articulable
observations concerning the appearance, behavior, speech, or body odors of
the employee. The observations may include indications of the chronic and
withdrawal effects of Controlled Substances or alcohol.
c. Timeframe for Testing Employees
If an Alcohol Test is required but is not administered within two (2) hours
following the request for the test, PCC shall prepare and maintain on file a
record stating the reasons the test was not promptly administered. If a required
test is not administered within eight (8) hours following the request, the operator
shall cease attempts to administer an Alcohol Test and shall state in the record
the reasons for not administering the test. These records shall be completed by
the employee's supervisor and forwarded to the Program Manager for inclusion
in the drug and alcohol files. These records shall also be made available to FTA
upon request.
ii. If a test for Controlled Substances is being requested, either on its own or in
addition to the Alcohol Test, it should be conducted within two hours.
10. Return to Duty Testing
a. If PCC has elected to retain or consider for reemployment a Covered Employee and
131Page
has not exercised its authority to terminate the employee, that employee shall be
subjected to Return to Duty Testing and Follow- Up Testing (see Section 4.05.09).
An individual who was terminated for conduct prohibited by this Policy may be
considered for rehire after 180 days upon providing evidence of the individual's
rehabilitation that is acceptable to and approved by the President of Human
Resources or their designee. The individual, if rehired, must agree to be subject to
Follow -Up Testing, at any time, for a period of up to five (5) years, but no less than
one (1) year, after returning to employment. Failure to agree to or submit to such
testing shall subject the employee to immediate termination.
c. Before a Covered Employee who has engaged in conduct prohibited by this Policy
may return to a position involving Safety -Sensitive Functions, the employee must
submit to Return to Duty Testing resulting in a Test for Controlled Substances with a
negative result and an Alcohol Test with a result indicating an alcohol concentration of
less than 0.02. All testing under this Section 4.05.08 will be administered with direct
observation.
d. All Return to Duty and Follow-up testing will be conducted in accordance with 49 CFR
Part 40, Subpart O.
11. Follow Up Testing
a. Following the determination that a Covered Employee needs assistance in resolving
problems associated with alcohol misuse or Controlled Substance use, PCC shall
ensure that the employee is subject to unannounced follow-up alcohol and/or
Controlled Substance testing. PCC may direct the employee to undergo Return -to -
Duty and Follow -Up Testing for both alcohol and Controlled Substances.
b. Follow -Up Testing for alcohol may only be conducted when the Covered Employee is
performing a Safety -Sensitive Function; just before the employee is to perform a
Safety -Sensitive Function; or just after the employee has ceased performing such
Safety -Sensitive Function. Follow -Up Testing for Controlled Substances may be
conducted any time the Covered Employee is on duty.
c. A minimum of six (6) unannounced, Follow -Up Tests must be administered within the
first twelve (12) months after the employee has returned to duty. All testing under this
Section 4.05.09 will be administered with direct observation. Additional testing may be
required for an additional sixty (60) months.
d. An employee who is undergoing Follow -Up Testing shall remain in the random pool
and be tested if their number is selected.
12. Test Refusal
a. Compliance with this Policy is a condition of employment. Refusal to take a required
Test for Controlled Substances or Alcohol Test shall result in removal from performing
a Safety -Sensitive Function and may lead to disciplinary action or be considered a
voluntary resignation by the employee.
b. Refusal includes the following and applies to any testing under this Policy:
141Page
i.
Leaving the collection site prior to test completion.
