Has the Fuel Cost Adjustment specification changed?

Yes. The new specification adjusts the dollar amount of work reported each month by 1.5 percent instead of 1 percent. The dollar amount will not include any incentives earned, including those for pavement smoothness, thickness or strength. No adjustments will be made for work performed after Substantial Completion. For further clarification, contact your project field office.

When can a subcontractor start working?

A subcontractor can start working after the SRF has been submitted to and is approved by Field Reports OR after the complete subcontract is submitted and approved. (Note: A completed contract is required for all subcontractors by the end of the project.)

Refer to the email below from Field Reports. This will apply if a subcontractor does start work prior to approval:

Dear Contractor

Do I have to post the federal workplace posters in languages other than English?

With a few exceptions (FMLA and MSPA), the U.S. Department of Labor's regulations do not require posting of notices in Spanish or other languages. Where an employer's workforce is comprised of a significant portion of workers who are not literate in English, the employer is responsible for providing the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) poster notice in a language in which the employees are literate.

The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA) is not applicable to ADOT.
