supplies, or equipment (whether or not a Federal or State agency acquires title to such materials, articles, supplies, or
equipment during the course of the manufacture or furnishing, or owns the materials from which they are manufactured or
furnished) is not "building" or "work" within the meaning of this defmition unless conducted in connection with and at the
site of such building or work as is described in the foregoing sentence, or under the United States Housing Act of 1937 and
the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of the project.
"Construction material" means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the recipient, subrecipient
or a subcontractor for incorporation in the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site
preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting,
fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are
produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the
individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the
Government are supplies, not construction material.
"Domestic construction material" means-
(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States; or
(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States.
"Foreign construction material" means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.
"Manufactured product, good or construction material" means any construction material that is not unmanufactured
construction material.
"Public building or public work" means building or work, the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of which, as
defined in this award term, is carried on directly by authority of, or with funds of, a Federal agency to serve the interest of
the general public regardless of whether title thereof is in a Federal agency.
"Steel" means an alloy that includes at ]east 50 percent iron, between .02 and 2 percent carbon, and may include. other
elements.
"Unmanufactured construction material" means raw material brought to the construction site for incorporation into the
building or work that has not been--
(1) Processed into a specific form and shape; or
(2) Combined with other raw material to create a material that has different properties than the
properties of the individual raw materials.
"United States" means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas including:
(1) Commonwealths.
(i) Puerto Rico.
(ii) The Northern Mariana Islands;
~~
(2) Territories.

(b) Domestic preference.
(1) This award term and condition implements Section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
(Recovery Act)(Pub. L. 111-5), by requiring that all iron, steel, and other manufactured goods used as construction
material in the project are produced in the United States.
(2) The recipient shall use only domestic construction material in performing this project, except as provided in
paragraph (b)(3) and (b)(4) of this term and condition.
(3) This requirement does not apply to the construction material or components listed by the Government as follows:
[Award official to list applicable excepted materials or indicate "none "]
(4) The award official may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(3) of this term and
condition if the Federal government determines that
(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of domestic iron, steel, or other
manufactured goods used as construction material is unreasonable when the cumulative cost of such material will
increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25 percent;
(ii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably
available quantities and of a satisfactory quality; or
(iii) The application of the restriction of Section 1605 of the Recovery Act to a particular construction material would
be inconsistent with the public interest.
(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of Section 1605 of the Recovery Act.
(1)(i) Any recipient request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(4) of this clause
shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including-
(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;
(B) Unit of measure;
(C) Quantity;
(D) Price;
(E) Time of delivery or availability;
(F) Location of the construction project;

reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before award. If
the recipient does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the award official need not make a determination.
(2) If the Federal government determines after award that an exception to Section 1605 of the Recovery Act applies,
the award official will amend the award to allow use of the foreign construction material. When the basis of the
exception is nonavailability or public interest, the amended award shall reflect adjustment of the award amount or
redistribution of budgeted funds, as appropriate, to cover costs associated with acquiring
or using the foreign construction material. When the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic
construction material, the award official shall adjust the award amount or redistribute budgeted funds, as appropriate,
by at least the differential established in 2 CFR 176.110(a).
9
~`
(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to Section 1605 of the Recovery Act applies, use of foreign
construction material is noncompliant with Section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the
Recipient shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

19. The Sponsor hereby acknowledges the requirement to adhere to certain recipient responsibilities regarding tracking and
documenting Recovery Act expenditures. To this end, the Sponsor hereby agrees to the following:
Recovery Act Transactions Listed in Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and Recipient Responsibilities for
Informing subrecipients -
(a) To maximize the transparency and accountability of funds authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5)(Recovery Act) as required by Congress and in accordance
With 2 CFR 215, subpart _. 21 "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements" and OMB A-102
Common Rules provisions, recipients agree to maintain records that identify adequately the source and application of
Recovery Act funds.
(b) For recipients covered by the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and OMB Circular A-133, "Audits of States,
Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations," recipients agree to separately identify the expenditures for Federal
awards under the Recovery Act on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) and the Data Collection Form
(SF-SAC) required by OMB Circular A-133. This shall be accomplished by identifying expenditures for Federal awards
made under Recovery Act separately on the SEFA, and as separate rows under Item 9 of Part III on the SF-SAC by CFDA
number, and inclusion of the prefix "ARRA" in identifying the name of the Federal program on the SEFA and as the first
characters in Item 9d of Part III on the SF-SAC.
(c) Recipients agree to separately identify to each subrecipient, and document at the time of sub-award and at the time of
disbursement of funds, the Federal award number, CFDA number, and amount of Recovery Act funds. When a recipient
awards Recovery Act funds for an existing program, the information furnished to subrecipients shall distinguish the
subawards of incremental Recovery Act funds from regular sub-awards under the existing program.
(d) Recipients agree to require their subrecipients to include on their SEFA information to specifically
identify Recovery Act funding similar to the requirements for the recipient SEFA described above. This
information is needed to allow the recipient to properly monitor subrecipient expenditure of ARRA funds as well
as oversight by the Federal awarding agencies, Offices of Inspector General and the Government Accountability
Office,
20. The Sponsor hereby agrees to award contracts only after determining that the proposed contractor is not listed
the General Services Administration (GSA) Excluded Parties List System available at hops://www.epls.gov/.
21. The Sponsor hereby agrees to be bound by and to comply with any and all future modifications to the ARRA
funding requirements for Sponsors by the United States with respect to ARRA grants awarded prior to the date
of said modifications. This is necessary due to the expedited nature of this program.

~~
22. It is mutually understood and agreed that if, during the life of the project, the FAA determines that the maximum grant
obligation of the United States exceeds the expected needs of the Sponsor the maximum obligation of the United States can
be unilaterally reduced by letter from the FAA advising of the budget change. Conversely, if there is an ovemm in the total
actual eligible and allowable project costs, FAA may increase the maximum grant obligation of the United States to cover
the amount of the overrun not to exceed the statutory percent limitation and will advise the Sponsor by letter of the increase.
It is further understood and agreed that if, during the life of the project, the FAA determines that a change in the gant
description is advantageous and in the best interests of the United States, the change in grant description will be unilaterally
amended by letter from the FAA. Upon issuance of the aforementioned letter, either the grant obligation of the United
States is adjusted to the amount specified or the grant description is amended to the description specified.
23. The Sponsor agees to perform the following:
a. Furnish a construction management program to FAA prior to the start of construction which shall detail the measures
and procedures to be used to comply with the quality control provisions of the construction contract, including, but not
limited to, all quality control provisions and tests required by the Federal specifications. The program shall include as a
minimum:
1. The name of the person representing the Sponsor who has overall responsibility for contract administration for the
project and the authority to take necessary actions to comply with the contract.
2. Names of testing laboratories and consulting engineer firms with quality control responsibilities on the project, together
with a description of the services to b~ provided.
3. Procedures for determining that testing laboratories meet the requirements of the American Society of Testing and
Materials standards on laboratory evaluation, referenced in the contract specifications (D 3666, C 1077).
4. Qualifications of engineering supervision and construction inspection personnel.
5. A listing of all tests required by the contract specifications, including the type and frequency of tests to be taken, the
method of sampling, the applicable test standard, and the acceptance criteria or tolerances permitted for each type of test.
6. Procedures for ensuring that the tests are taken in accordance with the program, that they are documented daily, and that
the proper corrective actions, where necessary, are undertaken.
b. Submit at completion of the project, a final test and quality control report documenting the results of all tests performed,
highlighting those tests that failed or did not meet the applicable test standard. The report shall include the pay reductions
applied and reasons for accepting any out-of-tolerance material. An interim test and quality control report shall be
submitted, if requested by the FAA.
c. Failure to provide a complete report as described in paragraph b, or failure to perform such tests, shall, absent any
compelling justification, result in a reduction in Federal participation for costs incurred in connection with construction of

25. For a project to replace or reconstruct pavement at the airport, the Sponsor shall implement an effective airport pavement
maintenance management program as required by Airport Sponsor Assurance Number 11. The Sponsor shall use such
program for the useful life of any pavement constructed, reconstructed, or repaired with Federal financial assistance at the
airport.
PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
An effective pavement maintenance management program is one that details the procedures to be followed to
assure that proper pavement maintenance, both preventive and repair, is performed. An airport sponsor may use
any form of inspection program it deems appropriate. The program must, as a minimum, include the following:
a. Pavement Inventory. The following must be depicted in an appropriate form and level of detail:
(1) location of all runways, taxiways, and aprons;
(2) dimensions;
(3) type of pavement, and;
(4) year of construction or most recent major rehabilitation.
For compliance with the Airport Improvement Program (ATP) assurances, pavements that have been constructed,
reconstructed, or repaired with federal financial assistance shall be so depicted.
b. Inspection Schedule.
(1) Detailed Inspection. A detailed inspection must be performed at least once a year. If a history of
recorded pavement deterioration is available, i.e., Pavement Condition Index (PCI) survey as set forth in
Advisory Circular 150/5380-6, "Guidelines and Procedures for Maintenance of Airport Pavements," the
frequency of inspections may be extended to three years.
(2) Drive-By Inspection. A drive-by inspection must be performed a minimum of once per month to detect
unexpected changes in the pavement condition.
c. Record Keeping. Complete information on the findings of all detailed inspections and on the maintenance
performed must be recorded and kept on file for a minimum of five years. The types of distress, their
locations, and remedial action, scheduled or performed, must be documented. The minimum information to
be recorded is listed below:
(1) inspection date,
(2) location,
(3) distress types, and
(4) maintenance scheduled or performed.
For drive-by inspections, the date of inspection and any maintenance performed must be recorded.
d. Information Retrieval. An airport Sponsor may use any form of record keeping it deems appropriate, so
long as the information and records produced by the pavement survey can be retrieved to provide a report to
the FAA as may be required.
e. Reference. Refer to Advisory Circular 150/5380-6, "Guidelines and Procedures for Maintenance of Airport
Pavements," for specific guidelines and procedures for maintaining airport pavements and establishing an
effective maintenance program. Specific types of distress, their probable causes, inspection guidelines, and
recommended methods of repair are presented.
26. The Sponsor agrees to request cash drawdowns on the letter of credit only when actually needed for its disbursements and
to timely reporting of such disbursements as required. It is understood that failure to adhere to this provision may cause the
letter of credit to be revoked.

The State shall reimburse Grantee only for accepted performance up to the date of termination. If, after
termination by the State, it is determined that Grantee was not in breach or that Grantee's action or

excess costs incurred by the State in procuring from third parties replacement Work, Services or
substitute Goods as cover.

CDAG # 11- ASE -01
The State is entering into this Grant for the purpose of carrying out the public policy of the State of
Colorado, as determined by its Governor, General Assembly, and/or Courts. If this Grant ceases to further
the public policy of the State, the State, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Grant in whole or in part.
Exercise by the State of this right shall not constitute a breach of the State's obligations hereunder. This
subsection shall not apply to a termination of this Grant by the State for cause or breach by Grantee, which
shall be governed by §15(A) or as otherwise specifically provided for herein.
iii. Method and Content
The State shall notify Grantee of such termination in accordance with §16. The notice shall specify the

and rights set forth in §15(A)(i).
v. Payments

Additionally, if this Grant is less than 60% completed, the State may reimburse Grantee for a portion
of actual out -of- pocket expenses (not otherwise reimbursed under this Grant) incurred by Grantee

satisfactorily made and completed.
viii. Deny Payment
Deny payment for those obligations not performed, that due to Grantee's actions or inactions, cannot

shall be reasonably related to the value to the State of the obligations not performed.
ix. Removal
Demand removal of any of Grantee's employees, agents, or Sub - grantees whom the State deems
incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise unacceptable, or whose continued
relation to this Grant is deemed to be contrary to the public interest or not in the State's best interest.

Exhibit A
Project Summaries
Runway Extension
In July, 2010, following completion of an federal Environmental Assessment (EA), the
Pitkin County Commissioners approved a project to extend runway 15/33 at the
Aspen /Pitkin County Airport 1,000 to the south. At Aspen's 7,815' elevation, the
airport's existing 7,000' runway length often restricts the number of passengers, fuel
and baggage that can be accomodated on existing air carrier aircraft, particularly in the
hot summer season. The runway extension will not allow larger or heavier aircraft to
operate at the airport, and will be available only for takeoffs to the north. The extension
will allow existing aircraft to operate with more payload, reduce the number of
"bumped passengers ", allow air carriers to fill more aircraft seats with revenue
passengers, provide the potential for longer stage lengths by both general aviation and
air carrier aircraft, and increase operational safety.
This application reflects the high end estimated cost of both design and construction
costs, including the replacement of a domestic water well system located in the runway
extension area, which was a mitigation measure required by the EA. The applicant
realizes that actual state funding will be proportional to actual project costs.
Airfield Snow Plow Replacement
This project will entail the scheduled replacment of the airport's 1996 International
5000 airfield snow plow truck and 14' blade with a new, high speed runway plow truck
with 22' blade.

CDAG# 11 -ASE -01
Exhibit A
Airfield Snow Plow Replacement
Due to the significant amount of snowfall at Aspen's 7,815' elevation (nearly 200"
annually), the airport's heavy snow removal equipment fleet sees extensive use, and is
normally scheduled for replacement on ten year intervals. In this instance, we were
able to realize fourteen years of service from our International plow. However,
increasing maintenance costs, the vehicle's age, and its lack of commonality with our
current snow removal fleet necessitate replacement at this time. Doing so will ensure
that we can continue to provide the highest level of snow removal capabilities expected
by our users.
