It is understood that this <br /> Agreement, together with the referenced Schedule A Agreements, constitute an integrated, <br /> self-contained, stand-alone agreement, and that by virtue of having become bound to this <br /> Agreement, the Contractor will not be obligated to sign any other local, area, or national <br /> agreement as a condition of performing work within the scope of this Agreement. Where a <br /> subject covered by the provisions of this Agreement is also covered by a Schedule A, the <br /> provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Should there be a dispute in the first instance as to whether the provisions of <br /> Article 11 of this Agreement or the grievance procedures of a Schedule A Agreement apply, <br /> the dispute shall be presented initially to an arbitrator who shall be selected pursuant to the <br /> method described in Article 11. Such referral of a dispute as to the applicable procedures shall <br /> be done by an immediate conference call among the parties and the arbitrator, and be heard <br /> and decided within three (3) calendar days. Should the arbitrator hold that Article 11 applies, <br /> the parties may, by mutual agreement, submit the issue to the same arbitrator pursuant to the <br /> provisions of Article 11, or, absent mutual agreement, commence processing the dispute at <br /> Step 1 of that Article. <br /> 3.6 Subcontractors: At the time that any Contractor enters into a subcontract with any <br /> subcontractor of any tier for the performance of construction or construction trucking work <br />
