Letter of Understanding re:
Small Local Business Utilization Program
Page two of two
If, in the sole judgment of the Social Justice Subcommittee established under this agreement, the
Subcommittee determines that the objectives outlined in this Letter of Understanding will be
furthered by the addition of $5,000,000 to the program’s $10,000,000 limit. It shall make such a
decision, by majority vote. DSI/PCI shall give notice to all Subcommittee members when it
determines that the $10,000,000 program limit is being neared, and schedule the matter for
inclusion on the Subcommittee’s agenda.
It is further agreed that the Port, in managing this Program, will work with the signatory parties
to this agreement to ensure that the operation of this understanding does not have significant
disproportionate impact on any particular craft or upon small disadvantaged contractors signatory
to Schedule As. Further, the Port pledges that in any event no more than 20% of the value of
contracts awarded effecting any particular craft shall be issued under this understanding.
There shall be no strikes, sympathy strikes, picketing, work stoppages, slowdowns or other
disruptive activity at the Project site for any reason (including disputes relating to the negotiation
or renegotiation of the local collective bargaining agreements which serve as the basis for the
Schedule As) or disputes directed at contractors exempt from coverage pursuant to the terms of
this letter. This agreement in no way limits the rights of signatory Unions to seek to organize and
utilize legal and administrative remedies not precluded by this letter, according to applicable
federal and state law, to secure adherence to any such successful effort.
I trust that the foregoing accurately describes the understanding we reached on this Small
Business Utilization Program treatment of successful bidders under the terms of this Project
Labor Agreement.
Very truly yours,
Jake Sloan, President, Davillier-Sloan, Inc.
on behalf of the Project Contractor
