BACKGROUND
In January 2016, the State was awarded $95.7 million in HUD National Disaster
Resiliency Competition grant funds. Per the award, the City of Dubuque is to receive
$8.9 million for private home improvements associated with reducing water intrusion in
to private properties. Through June of 2021 the Bee Branch Healthy Homes (BBHH)
program will complete 320 housing units.
In October of 2016, the City Council passed Resolution 363-16 authorizing the
execution of the funding contract with the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA)
for the City's receipt of $8,900,165.00 in Community Development Block Grant Program
Disaster Recovery - National Disaster Resiliency (CDBG-NDR) funds for the BBHH
program housing contract.
Each property has been approved by the BBHH committee approval team due to
location in the Bee Branch watershed and the occupant being income eligible for
programming. All projects have gone through an inspection, environmental
assessment, State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and duplication of benefit review
by IEDA prior to approval to go out to bid.
DISCUSSION
Each property will be bid individually and have a separate set of work specifications
(attached) that will include work with intent to reduce future water intrusion into the
structure as well as repair damage from past weather events. This work may include for
example: excavation and grading, concrete flat work, mechanical repairs of furnace and
water heaters, foundation repair, gutters and downspouts as well as a number of other
eligible repairs. The BBHH inspector has prepared a cost estimate as part of the pre-
bid package work write up to assist in budgeting with each project.
PROJECT SCHEDULE
The schedule for the afore mentioned projects has been developed in coordination with
the owners of the property and East Central Intergovernmental Association (ECIA) that
is sub-contracted to complete the technical service inspections for the program.

for all properties must be complete by June 30, 2021 .

TOTAL LEAD CLEANING BID
Notice of Lead testing guidelines
Lead work line items must be completed within a few days as possible. On or about three days after the lead
work is started, or as requested by the contractor, ECIA will complete lead dust sampling on the project you are
bidding. We will randomly select four window troughs, four window sills, four floor areas, and outside the
front or back door. These randomly selected areas must test at or below the required micrograms per foot
squared as determined by a certified independent laboratory. Currently ECIA uses EHS Laboratories in
Maryland for testing. The contractor will not be billed for the first test. If the first lead test fails, the contractor
will be billed $400.00 for retesting payable to ECIA by cashier's check before the next testis completed. The
second and all subsequent testing's will result in a$400.00 fee pavable to ECIA by cashier's check before the
next test is completed.
Remember that the training you received in LEAD Safe Renovation is important and that the best way to
prepare for the lead dust sampling is to HEPA VAC- wet wash- HEPA VAC. In addition, if siding was
replaced we will sample the soil on the outside of the house. We will schedule this inspection at your request
and you must be finished cleaning at least one hour before we can test the home for dust. It is the contractors
responsibility to cover all personal items until the house is ready for lead dust testing.
If a surface fails within the house, such as a window sill, all other like components within the house must be
cleaned, tested, and found to be below Iowa limits or an additional test will be required.
The owners will not be allowed to move into or back into the home until the lead dust tests come back below
acceptable levels. In addition, final payment will not be made until lead testing is completed and certified at or
below acceptable levels as directed by IEDA.
I also understand that if lead hazards are noted within these specifications that the contractor submitting this bid will
not complete any work within this house unless the owner has been temporarily relocated as required by IEDA
regulations and in association with the City of Dubuque's BBHH grant This is a mandatory requirement and funds
are available to the owner for temporary relocation expenses. The owner may not move back into the structure until
the house is approved LEAD SAFE by an ECIA Rehabilitation Specialist.
Any citations, fines, or none compliance issues are the responsibility of the firm completing lead work not the
testing agency or qualified lab.
A STATE approved HEPA vacuum must be on site when working on all lead noted items.
I, of contracting company understand and will
comply with all listed lead requirements. I further certify that any or all line items completed as identified lead
surfaces will be completed by an individual trained and certified as a LEAD SAFE RENEVATOR.

Notice of Lead testing guidelines
Lead work line items must be completed within a few days as possible. On or about three days after the lead
work is started, or as requested by the contractor, ECIA will complete lead dust sampling on the project you are
bidding. We will randomly select four window troughs, four window sills, four floor areas, and outside the
front or back door. These randomly selected areas must test at or below the required micrograms per foot
squared as determined by a certified independent laboratory. Currently ECIA uses EHS Laboratories in
Maryland for testing. The contractor will not be billed for the first test. If the first lead test fails, the contractor
will be billed $400.00 for retesting payable to ECIA by cashier's check before the next testis completed. The
second and all subsequent testing's will result in a$400.00 fee pavable to ECIA by cashier's check before the
next test is completed. NO, pavment will not be made until the house is determined lead safe.
Remember that the training you received in LEAD Safe Renovation is important and that the best way to
prepare for the lead dust sampling is to HEPA VAC- wet wash- HEPA VAC. In addition, if siding was
replaced we will sample the soil on the outside of the house. We will schedule this inspection at your request
and you must be finished cleaning at least one hour before we can test the home for dust. It is the contractors
responsibility to cover all personal items until the house is ready for lead dust testing.
If a surface fails within the house, such as a window sill, all other like components within the house must be
cleaned, tested, and found to be below Iowa limits or an additional test will be required.
The owners will not be allowed to move into or back into the home until the lead dust tests come back below
acceptable levels. In addition, final payment will not be made until lead testing is completed and certified at or
below acceptable levels as directed by IEDA.
I also understand that if lead hazards are noted within these specifications that the contractor submitting this bid will
not complete any work within this house unless the owner has been temporarily relocated as required by IEDA
regulations and in association with the City of Dubuque's BBHH grant This is a mandatory requirement and funds
are available to the owner for temporary relocation expenses. The owner may not move back into the structure until
the house is approved LEAD SAFE by an ECIA Rehabilitation Specialist.
Any citations, fines, or none compliance issues are the responsibility of the firm completing lead work not the
testing agency or qualified lab.
A STATE approved HEPA vacuum must be on site when working on all lead noted items.
I, of contracting company understand and will
comply with all listed lead requirements. I further certify that any or all line items completed as identified lead
surfaces will be completed by an individual trained and certified as a LEAD SAFE RENEVATOR.

General
Recipients of Federal financial assistance from the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency must comply with the following
statutes and regulations.
Title VI of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 provides that no person in
the United States shall, on the grounds of race, color, or national
origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or
be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity
receiving Federal financial assistance. The Act goes on to explain
that the statute shall not be construed to authorize action with respect
to any employment practice of any employer, employment agency, or
labor organization (except where the primary objective of the Federal
financial assistance is to provide employment).
Section 13 of the 1972 Amendments to the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act provides that no person in the United States shall on the
ground of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the
benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, as amended. Employment discrimination on
the basis of sex is prohibited in all such programs or activities.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 provides that no
otherwise qualified individual with a disability in the United States
shall solely by reason of disability be excluded from participation in,
be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any
program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.
Employment discrimination on the basis of disability is prohibited in
all such programs or activities.
The Age Discrimination Act of 1975 provides that no person on the
basis of age shall be excluded from participation under any program
or activity receiving Federal financial assistance. Employment
discrimination is not covered. Age discrimination in employment is
prohibited by the Age Discrimination in Employment Act
administered by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 provides that no
person in the United States on the basis of sex shall be excluded from
participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to
discrimination under any education program or activity receiving
Federal financial assistance. Employment discrimination on the basis
of sex is prohibited in all such education programs or activities.
Note: an education program or activity is not limited to only those
conducted by a formal institution.
40 C.F.R. Part 5 implements Title IX of the Education Amendments
of 1972.
40 C.F.R. Part 7 implements Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
Section 13 of the 1972 Amendments to the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, and Section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
The Executive Order 13166 (E.O. 13166) entitled; "Improving
Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency"
requires Federal agencies work to ensure that recipients of Federal
financial assistance provide meaningful access to their LEP
applicants and beneficiaries.
Items
"Applicant" means any entity that files an application or unsolicited
proposal or otherwise requests EPA assistance. 40 C.F.R. §§ 5.105,
7.25.
"Recipient" means any entity, other than applicant, which will actually
receive EPA assistance. 40 C.F.R. §§ 5.105, 7.25.
"Civil rights lawsuits and administrative complaints" means any
lawsuit or administrative complaint alleging discrimination on the
basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability pending or
decided against the applicant and/or entity which actually benefits
from the grant, but excluding employment complaints not covered by
40 C.F.R. Parts 5 and 7. For example, if a city is the named applicant
but the grant will actually benefit the Department of Sewage, civil
rights lawsuits involving both the city and the Department of Sewage
should be listed.
"Civil rights compliance review" means any review assessing the
applicant's and/or recipient's compliance with laws prohibiting
discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or
disability.
Submit this form with the original and required copies of applications,
requests for extensions, requests for increase of funds, etc. Updates of
information are all that are required after the initial application
submission.
If any item is not relevant to the project for which assistance is
requested, write "NA" for "Not Applicable."
In the event applicant is uncertain about how to answer any questions,
EPA program officials should be contacted for clarification.
