Feasibility Study A feasibility study will identify the potential costs, service quality and other benefits which would result from contracting out the work in question. The cost analysis for the feasibility study shall not include the Employer’s indirect overhead costs for existing salaries or wages and benefits for administrative staff or for rent, equipment, utilities, and materials, except to the extent that such costs are attributable solely to performing the services to be contracted out. Upon completion of the feasibility study, the Employer agrees to furnish the Union with a copy if the feasibility study, the bid from the Apparent Successful Bidder and all pertinent information upon which the Employer based its decision to contract out the work including, but not limited to, the total cost savings the Employer anticipates. The Employer shall not go forward with contracting out the work in question if more than sixty percent (60%) of any projected savings resulting from the contracting out are attributable to lower employee wage and benefit costs.
ADB’s Review of Procurement Decisions 11. All contracts procured under international competitive bidding procedures and contracts for consulting services shall be subject to prior review by ADB, unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and ADB and set forth in the Procurement Plan.

C. The Agency Official shall consult with the SHPO/THPO and Tribes or other descendent community representatives to determine if the discovered site appears eligible for the National Register. If it does appear eligible, the Agency Official shall submit a treatment plan for the avoidance, protection, recovery of information, or destruction without data recovery to the SHPO for review and comment. The treatment plan shall be consistent with the ACHP’s handbook Treatment of Archaeological Properties and subsequent amendments and SHPO Human Remains Discovery Protocol. If human remains are discovered, the treatment plan shall follow the guidance in Advisory Council on Historic Preservation Policy Statement Regarding Treatment of Burial Sites, Human Remains and Funerary Objects, including appropriate consultation with descendent communities. Avoidance and preservation in place are the preferred options for treating human remains.
D. The Agency Official shall notify relevant consulting parties of the unanticipated discovery and provide the proposed treatment plan for their comment. Construction work in the area of the discovery shall not continue until the plan has been accepted by SHPO/THPO and implemented.
