20665.30. A job order contractor or subcontractor that knowingly violates the provisions involving employment of apprentices shall forfeit as a civil penalty an amount not exceeding one hundred dollars ($100) for each full calendar day of noncompliance. The amount of this penalty shall be based on consideration of whether the violation was a good faith mistake due to inadvertence. A contractor or subcontractor that knowingly commits a second or subsequent violation of the provisions involving employment of apprentices within a three-year period where the noncompliance results in apprenticeship training not being provided as required, shall forfeit as a civil penalty a sum of not more than three hundred dollars ($300) for each full calendar day of noncompliance and shall not be awarded any further job orders under the job order contract and shall be precluded for a period of one year from bidding on any future job order contracts.

20665.31. In order to prevent fraud, waste, and abuse, a community college district adopting job order contracting shall do all of the following:
(a) Prepare for each individual job order developed under a job order contract an independent community college district estimate.

The basis for any adjustments to the community college district estimate is to be documented. If the contractor’s proposal for a given job order is found to be unreasonable, not cost effective, or undesirable, the community college district is under no obligation to issue the job order to the job order contractor, and may instead utilize any other available procurement procedures.
(b) The community college district shall not issue a job order until the job order has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate level of management.
(c) Once a job order has been issued, all documents pertaining to preparation and approval of the job order, including the independent community college district estimate, shall be available for public review.
