or in conflict with the Borough's Bid document.

right to accept or reject any award, or to enter into a contract pursuant to an award. This
does not exclude a Bid limiting the maximum gross amount of awards acceptable to any
one Bidder at any one Bid opening, provided that any selection of awards will be made by
the Borough.
e. If the Bid does not contain a Unit Price for each pay item listed, except in the case of
authorized alternate pay items.
f. If the Bidder has not acknowledged receipt of each Addendum.
g. (If required) If the Bidder fails to furnish an acceptable Bid guaranty with the Bid.

reference to "Law" includes any federal or State of Alaska (State) law, including any court or administrative
order or rule.)
a. All Records belong to the Borough.
b. The Borough has sole discretion regarding whether to return any Record. In exercising this
discretion, the Borough will comply with all Laws.
c. Unless a notice of intent to award is issued, the Borough will, to the extent permitted by
Law, consider all Records confidential and not subject to the Alaska Public Records Act
(APRA).
d. If, and when a notice of intent to award is issued, the Borough will consider nonconfidential
any Record unless, at the time of submission, the bidder undertook the following protective
measures:
i. Marked information confidential;
ii. For any information marked confidential, identified the authority that makes that
specific information confidential; and
iii. Committed, in writing, to explain in detail, including with affidavits and briefs,
why each authority applies in any court or administrative proceeding in which any
nondisclosure is challenged.
If the bidder did not undertake each protective measure, the Borough will not consider any
information in a Record confidential: the Borough will disclose the entire Record without
any redaction in response to an APRA or other request or, if it chooses, in the absence of a
request and the Borough will disclose the entire Record without notifying the bidder.

ii. If the nondisclosure is challenged, the bidder fulfills its commitment to explain,
including with affidavits and briefs, how each authority applies to the information

if the bidder undertook each protective measure, but the Borough disagrees that the marked
information is protected. If there is such a disagreement, then before releasing the Record,
the Borough will, to the extent permitted by Law and practicable, notify the bidder that it
will disclose the information unless the bidder convinces the Borough not to or obtains an
order prohibiting disclosure.

Now, therefore the condition of this obligation is such that, if Contractor shall promptly and faithfully
perform said Contract, then this obligation shall be null and void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and
effect.
The Surety hereby waives notice of any alteration or extension of time made by the Borough.
Whenever Contractor shall be, and declared by Borough to be in default under the Contract, the Borough
having performed Borough's obligations thereunder, the Surety may promptly remedy the default, or shall
promptly comply with one of the following:
1. Complete the Contract in accordance with its terms and conditions, or
2. Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Contract in accordance with its terms and conditions,
and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsible bidder, or, if the Borough elects,
upon determination by the bidder, arrange for contract between such bidder and Borough, and

defaults under the contract or contracts of completion arranged under this paragraph) sufficient
funds to pay the cost of completion less the balance of the contract price; but not exceeding,
including other costs and damages for which the Surety may be liable hereunder, the amount set
forth in the first paragraph hereof. The term "balance of the contract price," as used in this
paragraph, shall mean the total amount payable by Borough to contractor under the Contract
and any amendments thereto, less the amount properly paid by Borough to Contractor.

1. Preparing for the Snow Plowing Season
Winter weather can be unpredictable, making it important for our snow
plowing business to be well-prepared for the upcoming season. Proper
preparation ensures that our business has the equipment, resources, and
strategies in place to efficiently and effectively handle snow and ice
removal.
In this section, we'll discuss key steps our business can take to prepare for
the snow plowing season, including conducting pre -season equipment
inspections, preparing vehicles and equipment for winter weather, and
developing a snow plowing plan. By following these best practices, our
business can ensure we are ready to handle whatever winter weather
comes our way.
1.1 Conducting Pre -Season Equipment Inspection
Before the snow plowing season begins, it is crucial to conduct pre-
season equipment inspections to ensure that all equipment is in good

1.2 Preparing Vehicles and Equipment for Winter Weather
Last updated: 12/03/2024
Winter weather can be harsh on our vehicles and equipment, which is
why it is important to prepare them properly before the snow season
begins. Here are some key steps to take:
Check all fluids: Before the snow season begins, all fluids, including oil,
transmission fluid, brake fluid, and coolant, should be checked and
topped up or changed as needed to ensure that the equipment can
operate effectively in cold temperatures.
Inspect tire: Snow plow operators should check the condition of their
tires and ensure they have sufficient tread depth. If the tires are worn
or damaged, they should be replaced. Snow tires or chains may also be

operators should take steps to store their equipment properly. This
includes draining fluids, lubricating moving parts, and storing the
equipment in a dry and secure location.
By following these steps, snowplow operators can ensure that their
vehicles and equipment are prepared for the winter season and can
operate efficiently throughout the snow plowing season.
1.3 Developing a Snow Plowing Plan
Last updated: 12/03/2024
Developing a snow plowing plan is crucial for ensuring that our
operation runs efficiently and effectively throughout the winter season.
A well -thought-out plan helps you avoid confusion, delays, and
mistakes, ensuring that our customers receive the highest level of
service possible. Here are some key considerations to keep in mind
when developing our snow plowing plan.
Define our service area: Define the boundaries of our service area,
including specific streets, neighborhoods, and commercial properties
that we will cover. This will help you determine the number of plow
trucks and drivers we need to assign to each area, as well as the type
of equipment that will be required.
Break down the plan into sub -sections: To make the plan easier to read
and more organized, consider breaking it down into sub -sections, such
as scheduling, route planning, and equipment management.
2. Snow Plowing Safety
Snow plowing is a hazardous job, and proper safety measures must be
taken to ensure the well-being of snow plowing professionals. In this
section, we will cover the common accidents and injuries that can occur
in snow plowing, the importance of proper training and certification,
best practices for avoiding accidents and injuries, and the necessary
safety equipment and gear.
2.1 Common Accidents and Injuries in Snow Plowing
Snow plowing can be a hazardous job due to the harsh winter
conditions and heavy equipment involved. There are several common
accidents and injuries that can occur during snowplow operations. One
of the mostfrequent injuries are slips, trips, and falls. Snow and ice can
make surfaces slippery, increasing the risk of accidents. Snowplow
operators may also sufferfrom back injuries due to the heavy lifting and
repetitive movements involved in plowing snow.
Another common type of injury in snow plowing is from accidents
involving vehicles and equipment. Accidents can occur due to poor
visibility, equipment malfunction, or operator error. Snowplow
operators may also be exposed to harmful chemicals such as road salt
and de-icers, which can cause skin irritation, eye irritation and
respiratory problems.
Last updated: 12/03/2024
In addition, snow plow operators are at risk of developing cold stress
injuries. This can include frostbite, hypothermia, and trench foot. Cold
stress injuries occur when the body loses heat faster than it can
generate it, and they can be prevented by wearing appropriate clothing
and taking regular breaks to warm up.
To maintain safe operations, snow plowing professionals should be
aware of the common accidents and take steps to prevent them. The
following sections provide tips and advice on how to do so.
2.2 Proper Training and Certification
Proper training and certification are crucial for snow plowing
professionals to ensure we are equipped with the necessary skills and
knowledge to perform their duties safely and effectively. The following
are the key benefits to proper training and certification:
Increased safety: Snow plowing can be dangerous, and proper training

certain standards of competency, which can provide peace of mind to
customers and enhance the professional's reputation.
Last updated: 12/03/2024
Overall proper training and certification are essential for snow plowing
professionals to ensure safety, efficiency, compliance, and credibility.
Snow plowing professionals should seek out training opportunities and
certification programs to enhance their skills and knowledge in the
field.
2.3 Best Practices for Avoiding Accidents and Injuries

Snow plowing equipment is a significant investment for any snow
removal business. To ensure that our business gets the most out of its
investment, it is crucial to take care of our equipment and follow some
key tips to extend its lifespan. Some important tips to keep in mind
include:
• Keeping equipment clean after each use to prevent rust and
corrosion.
• Storing equipment properly in a dry, climate -controlled area to
prevent rust and corrosion.
• Conducting regular maintenance.
• Following the manufacturer's recommended maintenance
schedule.
• Replacing work parts promptly to prevent further damage.
• It is also important to use high-quality fluids and lubricants and
to replace them according to the recommended schedule.
In addition, there are many benefits to using technology in snow
plowing operations, including increased efficiency, improved
accuracy, and better communication among team members. Our
company can use a variety of technological tools to optimize routes,
monitor weather conditions, and track equipment usage and
maintenance.
Our company can use weather monitoring software to track incoming
storms and prepare accordingly. By staying ahead of weather
events, our company can ensure that we have the necessary
equipment and/or worker usage to provide alerts when jobs are
serviced and documented.
By embracing technology, our company can improve efficiency,
reduce costs, and provide better service to our customers. It is

important for our company to stay up to date with the latest
technological advancements in the industry and invest in the tools
and software that can help maximize efficiency and stay ahead of the
competition.
4. Snow Plowing Procedures
• Snowfall Monitoring - Monitor weather forecasts and check on-site
accumulation. Use designated personnel or spot checks to assess snow
depth across services areas.
• Decision Threshold - 2 inches or less (Sand Only). Apply sand to high -traffic
areas, inclines, intersections, and known trouble spots for traction. Over 2
inches (Plow and Sand). Begin plowing operation to remove snow. Apply
sand after plowing is complete or as needed during active snowfall.
• Route Dispatch - Notify drivers and assign routes based on severity and
priority (main roads, hill, critical access points.) Use your manual log to
track progress and completion.
• Equipment Check - Ensure plows, sanders, and lights are in proper
working condition before deployment. Refuel and load sanders with dry
clean sand prior to departure.
• Execution of Work - (Plowing) Focus first on main routes and high -use
areas. Plow with a blade slightly lifted on gravel or soft surfaces to avoid
surface damage. Clear curb when possible and safe to do so. (Sanding)
Apply sand evenly, focusing on icy patches, intersections, hills, curves, and
shaded areas,
• Final Inspection - Supervisors inspect completed routes. Address any
missed areas or reports of slick conditions. Respond to service requests
and site-specific concerns
• Post Storm Wrap-up - Clean and inspect equipment. Refill sanders and fuel
vehicles. Log time, materials, snow depth, and road conditions. Report any
incidents or damages for follow-up.
5. Customer Service and Communication
In our snow plowing business, customer service and communication are
essential aspects of a successful operation. Effective communication helps
build trust with customers, manage their expectations, and ensure they receive
