TO CONTRACTOR'S RIGHT OF ENTRY AGREEMENT
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 1. NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK - FLAGGING.
A. Contractor agrees to notify the Railroad Representative at least ten (10) working days in advance of Contractor
commencing its work and at least thirty (30) working days in advance of proposed performance of any work by Contractor
in which any person or equipment will be within twenty-five (25) feet of any track, or will be near enough to any track that
any equipment extension (such as, but not limited to, a crane boom) will reach to within twenty-five (25) feet of any track.
No work of any kind shall be performed, and no person, equipment, machinery, tool(s), material(s), vehicle(s), or thing(s)
shall be located, operated, placed, or stored within twenty-five (25) feet of any of Railroad's track(s) at any time, for any
reason, unless and until a Railroad flagman is provided to watch for trains. Upon receipt of such thirty (30)-day notice, the
Railroad Representative will determine and inform Contractor whether a flagman need be present and whether Contractor
needs to implement any special protective or safety measures. If flagging or other special protective or safety measures
are performed by Railroad, Railroad will bill Contractor for such expenses incurred by Railroad, unless Railroad and a
federal, state or local governmental entity have agreed that Railroad IS tO bill such expenses to the federal, state or local
governmental entity. If Railroad will be sending the bills to Contractor, Contractor shall pay such bills within thirty (30) days
of Contractor's receipt of billing. If Railroad performs any flagging, or other special protective or safety measures are
performed by Railroad, Contractor agrees that Contractor is not relieved of any of its responsibilities or liabilities set forth in
this Agreement.
B. The rate of pay per hour for each flagman will be the.prevailing hourly rate in effect for an eight-hour day for the class of
flagmen used during regularly assigned hours and overtime in accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect
at the time the work is performed. In addition to the cost Of such labor, a composite charge for vacation, holiday, health
and welfare, supplemental sickness, Railroad Retirement and unemployment compensation, supplemental pension,
Employees Liability and Property Oarnage and Administration will be included, computed on actual payroll. The composite
charge will be the prevailing composite charge in effect at the time the work is performed. One and one-half times the
current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays, and two and one-half times current hourly rate for
holidays. Wage rates are Subject to change, at any time, by law or by agreement between Railroad and its employees, and
may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling Of an authorized governmental agency. Additional charges on
labor are also subject to change. If the wage rate or additional charges are changed, Contractor (or the governmental
entity, as applicable) shall pay on the basis of the new rates and charges.
C. Reimbursement to Railroad will be required covering the full eight-hour day during which any flagman is furnished, unless
the flagman can be assigned to other Railroad wOrk during a portion of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be
required for the portion of the day during which the flagman is engaged in other Railroad work. Reimbursement will also be
required for any day not actually worked by the flagman following the flagman's assig nmen t to work on the project for which
Railroad is required to pay the flagman and which could not reasonably be avoided by Railroad by assignment of such
flagman to other work , even though Contractor may not be working during such time. When it becomes necessary for
Railroad to bulletin and assign an employee to a flagging position in compliance with union collective bargaining
agreements, Contractor must provide Railroad a minimum of five (5) days notice prior to the cessation of the need for a
flagman. If five (5) days notice of cessation is not given, Contractor will still be required to pay flagging charges for the five
(5) day notice period required by union agreement to be given to the employee, even though flagging is not required for that
period. An additional thirty (30) days notice must then be given to Railroad if flagging services are needed again after such
five day cessation notice has been given to Railroad.
Section 2. LIMITATION AND SUBORDINATION OF RIGHTS GRANTED
A. The foregoing grant of right is subject and subordinate to the prior and continuing right and obligation of the Railroad to use
and maintain its entire property including the right and power of Railroad to construct, maintain, repair, renew, use, operate,
