Damages at the rate of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) per calendar day that the
work is incomplete as observed by the Engineer. 1
17. TOPSOIL STRIPPING AND RESPREADING: This Special Provision item is intended
to apply to all areas disturbed by utility construction under this project. It is assumed that the
developer will have spread topsoil on boulevard, as well as in the stormwater ponding areas of
the site. In order to salvage this material, the contractor must strip and stockpile existing
topsoil from all excavation and spoil areas prior to any work and then respread the topsoil after
the utility work has been completed. All costs for this work shall be considered incidental to
the contract.
18. ABANDONMENT OF EXISTING 8" WATER MAIN: As indicated on Plan Sheet No.
4, there is a segment of existing 8 inch diameter D.I.P. water main that will be abandoned and
replaced by a segment of new 8 inch diameter water main to be installed under this project.
Once both connections to the existing water main have been made, the segment of main to be
taken out of service shall be abandoned in place as follows. At each end, the Contractor shall
remove a length of existing main sufficient to allow the work to be performed. The Contractor I
shall then place and secure a gasketed plug in each end of the pipe, to prevent groundwater,
dirt or other materials from entering the abandoned pipe line.
Payment for the removal of existing water main pipe shall be made at the bid unit price stated
in the Proposal based on the lineal feet of pipe actually removed, and shall include disposal of
the old pipe material at an acceptable location off the project site. Payment for abandonment I
of the existing main shall be made at the bid unit price as stated in the Proposal and shall be
considered payment in full for all costs associated with the abandonment of each end of the
pipe, including furnishing and placing the gasketed plug. I
The connection to the existing 8 inch main on 58th Street will require a temporary interruption
of service to the high-rise apartment building in the Raymie Johnson Estates Development, as
well as a portion of the Sunview Development located south of 58th Street. The apartment
building contains 96 senior citizen apartments, so it is critical that ample notice be given prior
to the interruption of service, and that the work be completed as efficiently as possible. The
Contractor shall be responsible to provide notification to both the City and affected residences
a minimum of 48 hours prior to the interruption. Notification for the high rise apartment
building shall be given to either Carol Greethurst of Kingwood Management, at telephone 1
number 439-7812 or Jeri Warling of Raymie Johnson Estates, at telephone number 439-0858.

In order to avoid disruption of meal services to the senior citizens, the time period for the
interruption of service shall be confined to between the hours of 1:30 P.M. and 5:00 P.M. It
should be noted that, in discussions with representatives of the apartment building, they
indicated that under no circumstances can the interruption be made on the dates of Friday,
November 11, 1994 or Saturday, November 12, 1994.
It is imperative that service be re-established to the affected properties as quickly as possible.
For that reason, once the shut down has been made, the Contractor shall make the connection
of the new 8 inch water main at 58th Street prior to the connection at the west plat line. The
Contractor shall cut into the existing main and place the new 8 inch 90° bend and 8 inch gate
valve and box. Both the bend and valve shall be secured with rodding and concrete thrust
blocking. Once the new 8 inch valve is in place, the existing water main on 58th Street shall be
turned back on, restoring service to all residences. The Contractor shall then continue with the
connection to the existing water main at the west plat line and the abandonment of the segment
of existing main.
19. RESTORATION OF EXISTING STREET AND PATHWAY: At different locations in
the project, the required improvements will cause disturbance to existing improved roadway and
pathway sections. These locations are described below, along with the required restoration.
A. The connection to the existing sanitary sewer and water mains on 58th Street North
will disturb the existing concrete curb and gutter as well as the bituminous surfacing
of both 58th Street and the pathway along its north boulevard. All such material
removed in the course of the construction shall be disposed of at an acceptable
location off the project site. The Contractor shall salvage and stockpile as much
existing Class 5 material as possible from the area to be disturbed prior to any
excavation.
Upon completion of the installation of the utilities and backfilling of the trench, the
subgrade of 58th Street shall be checked and approved by the Engineer prior to the
placement of any aggregate base material. Once the subgrade has been approved,the
Contractor shall place and compact the salvaged Class 5 material within the
bituminous roadway section. If necessary, the Contractor shall supplement this
salvaged material with new Class 5 material to bring the thickness of the compacted
aggregate base to six inches. After the Class 5 base has been placed and toleranced
to the satisfaction of the Engineer, the Contractor shall saw cut straight joints across
the edges of the existing bituminous surfacing, place a layer of bituminous tack along
the exposed edges of the joints and place a 1-1/2 inch thick compacted course of Type
31 bituminous base material on the disturbed area, followed by a 1-1/2 inch thick
compacted course of Type 41 bituminous wear course material. Concrete curb and
gutter and pathway surfacing disturbed by the sanitary sewer and water main
connections need not be replaced.

B. Installation of the storm sewer from the existing manhole to the flared end section I
north of SS-3 will also disturb the existing bituminous surfacing and concrete curb of
58th Street North, as well as the existing bituminous pathway along the north
boulevard of 58th Street. As before, all bituminous surfacing removed from the
pathway and street areas, and all concrete curb and gutter removed shall be disposed
of at an acceptable location off the project site. The Contractor shall also salvage
and stockpile as much existing Class 5 material as possible from the roadway and
pathway areas to be restored.
Upon completion of the installation of the utilities and backfilling of the trench, the
subgrade for both the street and pathway areas shall be checked and approved by the
Engineer prior to the placement of any aggregate base material. Once approved, the
Contractor shall place and compact the salvaged Class 5 material. If necessary, the
Contractor shall supplement this salvaged material with new Class 5 material to bring
the total thickness of the compacted base material to four inches in the pathway
section and six inches in the roadway section. After the base material has been
placed, the Contractor shall permanently adjust the castings of SS-1 and SS-2 to their
design elevations, and reconstruct the removed concrete curb and gutter of 58th
Street North, including transitions as indicated in Standard Detail Plate 4-10. If
necessary, the Contractor shall saw cut straight edges along the ends of the existing
concrete curb and place expansion material prior to construction of the curb. Once
the concrete curb and gutter has been placed, the Contractor shall tolerance the
aggregate base on both the pathway and roadway areas to the satisfaction of the
Engineer, and shall patch the area with bituminous mixture. The street area shall be
patched with a 1-1/2 inch thick compacted course of Type 31 base course mixture, I
followed by a 1-1/2 inch thick compacted course of Type 41 wear course mixture.
The pathway area shall be patched with a single 2 inch thick compacted layer of Type
41 modified wear course mixture. Prior to the placement of the bituminous mixture,
the Contractor shall saw cut straight joints and place bituminous tack coat material
along all exposed edges of the existing bituminous surfaces.
Payment for the above described work shall be as follows. Removal of existing
concrete curb and gutter and bituminous surfacing for both pathway and street areas
shall be paid for at the bid unit prices as stated in the Proposal based on the
measured quantities actually removed,and shall include disposal. Replacement of the
concrete curb and gutter shall be paid for at the bid unit price as stated in the
Proposal based on the length of curbing actually constructed. Adjustment of the
catch basins castings shall be paid for under a separate bid unit item.

Payment for restoration of the bituminous surfacing on both street and pathway areas
shall be made at the bid unit price stated in the proposal, based on the measured
area of surfacing actually restored. Payment at the bid unit price shall be considered
payment in full for all work associated with the bituminous patching, including
salvaging and replacing existing Class 5 material, placement of new Class 5 material
as necessary, shaping, compaction and tolerancing of new Class 5 material, and saw
cutting and tacking edges of the existing bituminous surfaces. Separate bid unit items
have been included in the Proposal for the restoration of pathway surfacing and street
surfacing.
It is the intention of this Specification that 58th Street North be maintained open to
traffic with at least one passable lane at all times during construction. This may
require that the Contractor perform road crossings in halves or construct temporary
bypass lanes around disturbed areas. All such efforts expended by the Contractor in
maintaining traffic shall be considered incidental to the project. The method of
traffic maintenance proposed by the Contractor shall be discussed with and acceptable
to the Engineer prior to the start of construction.
All bituminous surfaces to be restored under this Special Provision shall be
completely restored within ten working days from the date of initial disturbance of
the surfacing. If this requirement is not met, liquidated damages in the amount of
Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00) per calendar day shall be assessed against the
Contractor until such time that the restoration has been completed, as observed by
■ the Engineer.
20. EMERGENCY OVERFLOW DRAINAGE SWALES: An emergency overflow drainage
swale is required for the eastern stormwater pond, as shown on Plan Sheet No. 5. The overflow
swale is to be finish graded and sodded as part of this contract. It is important that the swale
be constructed to the width and elevation designed in order for it to function properly. The
Contractor shall grade the swale as staked and directed. Upon approval of the grading the
Contractor shall place topsoil, sodding and maintain the sodding in accordance with Section
2575. Payment at the bid unit price per square yard for overflow swale grading and restoration
shall be full compensation for all materials and labor necessary to complete the work.

Installation of temporary erosion and sedimentation control measures shall be coordinated with
all phases of work. The Contractor shall complete grading, finishing, and installation of
permanent or temporary erosion controls on a section-by-section basis. He shall also establish
permanent turf in accordance with Section 2575 - TURF ESTABLISHMENT to prevent
excessive soil erosion. Permanent erosion controls are any items of a permanent nature such
as curbing, culvert aprons, riprap, flumes or other items that would control or minimize the
potential for erosion. Temporary erosion controls are short lived devices such as straw bale
structures, silt curtains, sediment traps or other means to temporarily protect the over-all work
prior to the installation of permanent erosion controls or to supplement the permanent
measures.
B. Placing Temporary Erosion Control Items:
1. Bale Checks: The bales shall be installed so that the bindings run around the sides rather
than along the tops and bottoms of the bales.
A trench shall be excavated the width of a bale and the length of the proposed barrier to a
minimum depth of 4 inches. After the bales are staked and chinked, the excavated soil shall
be backfilled against the barrier. The backfill soil shall conform to the ground level on the
downhill side and be built up to 4 inches against the uphill side of the barrier.
The bales shall be placed end to end across ditches or at other areas requiring erosion control.
The bales shall be placed immediately after shaping of the ditches or slopes is completed.
Bale checks shall be inspected after each rainfall. Bale checks shall be repaired by replacing
damaged bales or filling undercuts beneath bales. After 3 months the bales shall be replaced
with either another bale dike or a silt fence barrier. Sediment deposits shall be removed after
they reach approximately one-half the height of the barrier.
' Bales shall be removed, as determined by the Engineer, after the slopes and ditches have been
stabilized and turf developed to the extent that future erosion is unlikely. The bales may be
' used as mulch or be disposed of satisfactorily. The ditch shall be reshaped, sumps and trenches
filled, excess eroded material disposed of and turf established as required.
2. Silt Fence: Silt fence shall be erected prior to starting any construction operation which
might cause any sedimentation or siltation to be carried away from the project site. Silt fence
shall be installed on the contour and constructed so that flow cannot bypass the ends. If the
silt fence is longer than 600 feet, it shall be constructed in separate independent units,with each
unit having a length less than 600 feet.

Silt fences may be constructed with or without supporting fences such as snow fences or wire
mesh fences. If support fences are included, they shall be strong enough to withstand the load
from ponded water and trapped sediment. The support posts shall be spaced at 8 feet or less,
and shall be driven at least 2 feet into the ground.
When a silt fence is installed without a supporting fence, the posts shall be spaced at 4 feet or
less and be placed or driven at least 30 inches into the ground.
For all installations, the fabric shall be anchored in a trench dug on the upslope side of the 1
posts. The trench should be at least 6 inches deep and 6 inches wide. The fabric shall be laid
in the trench which is backfilled and compacted.
The filter fabric shall be furnished in a continuous roll to avoid splices. When a splice cannot
be avoided, it shall be made at a fence post. The fabric shall be overlapped 6 inches, folded
over and securely fastened.
All silt fences shall be inspected immediately after each runoff event-and at least daily during
prolonged rainfall. Any required repairs shall be made immediately. When sediment deposits
reach approximately on-half the height of the silt fence, the sediment shall either be replaced
or a second silt fence installed.
Silt fence shall be removed, as determined by the Engineer, after the slopes and ditches have
been stabilized and turf developed to the extent that future erosion is unlikely. Materials
remaining after removal shall become the property of the contractor and shall be disposed of
off the construction site.
3. Sandbag Barriers: Bags should be about one-half to two-thirds full of clay, silt or sand. The 1
sacks should be laid stretcherwise for the first layer, crosswise for the second layer, and
alternating until the required height is reached. The sacks should overlap at least one-third
each way and be well mauled into place.
4. Flotation Silt Curtain: The flotation carrier shall have a 5/16" diameter coated steel cable
in it to carry loads imposed upon the curtain. The bottom edge shall be weighted by cable or
chain with a minimum weight of 1.1 pounds per foot. One 24-pound anchor shall also be used
per 100 feet of curtain. Where the curtain is made up of sections, the sections should be joined
so that silt cannot permeate through the connection.
The silt curtain shall be maintained until the construction area is stabilized and turbidity is
reduced to acceptable levels. At such time, the Contractor shall return to the project site and
remove all features of the silt curtain and shall dispose of same at a location off the project site.

5. Temporary Sediment Basin: The basin's hydraulic volume shall be sufficient to capture a
1/2 inch per acre of runoff from the watershed area. The basin shall also provide a minimum
of 250 cubic feet of dead sediment storage volume below the outlet for the basin. The
embankment height shall not exceed 5.5 feet above the low point of the original ground surface
along the centerline of the embankment. The embankment shall have a minimum top width
of 4 feet and side slopes of 2:1 or flatter. The basin inlets shall be placed above the outlet
elevation.
Temporary sediment basins shall have an outlet to carry runoff through the structure. The
outlet can be a pipe outlet, gravel outlet or other suitable device.
If ag ravel outlet is used, it shall be located in the low point of the embankment. The minimum

Owner' s representative during construction are set forth in the Contract
Documents and shall not be extended without written consent of Owner and Engi-
neer.
7.1.2 Engineer will make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the
various stages of construction to observe the progress and quality of the
executed Work and to determine, in general, if the Work is proceeding in
accordance with the Contract Documents. Engineer is not required to make
exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity
of the Work. On the basis of such visits and on-site observations, Engineer
will keep Owner informed of the progress of the Work and will endeavor to guard
Owner against defects and deficiencies in the Work.
7.1.3 If Owner and Engineer agree, Engineer will furnish a resident project. 11
representative to assist Engineer in observing the performance of the Work.
The Resident Project Representative shall work under the authority and direc-

11
tion of the Engineer. The duties and responsibilities of the Resident Project
Representative shall not exceed those duties and responsibilities of the Engi-
neer as set forth in the Contract. It shall be to the discretion of the Engi-
neer to delegate to the Resident Project Representative those duties and tasks
that are within the authority of the Engineer to perform. In general, the
duties of the Resident Project Representative may consist of, but shall not be
limited to, the following:
1. General contract administration
2. Periodic observation of the Work
3. Unit price quantity and record plan measurements
4. Schedule, perform and verify tests and inspections
5. Monitor Contractor's progress performance
6. Provide information for the Engineer's review
I/ and decision concerning disputes and defective Work.
7.1.4 Engineer will issue with reasonable promptness such written clarifica-
11 tions or interpretations of the Contract Documents (in the form of Drawings or
otherwise) as Engineer may determine necessary, which shall be consistent with
or reasonably inferable from the overall intent of the Contract Documents. If
Contractor believes that a written clarification or interpretation justifies an
increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time, Contractor may make a claim
therefor as provided in Section 10 or Section 11.
7.1.5 Engineer will have authority to disapprove or reject Work which is
defective, and will also have authority to require special inspection or test-
ing of the Work as provided in Paragraph 8.10, whether or not the Work is
fabricated, installed or completed. The Engineer shall not have charge of or
control over the Work and shall have no authority to stop the Work.
7.1.6 Neither Engineer' s authority to act under this Section 7 or elsewhere in
I/ the Contract Documents nor any decision made by Engineer in good faith either
to exercise or not exercise such authority shall give rise to any duty or
responsibility of Engineer to Contractor, any Subcontractor, any manufac-
11
turer, fabricator, supplier or distributor, or any of their agents or employ-
ees or any other person performing any of the Work.
7.1.7 If a Resident Project Representative is assigned to the project, the
purpose of his efforts shall be to provide a greater degree of assurance to the
Owner that the Work is constructed in conformance to the requirements of the
Contract. The Resident Project Representative' s efforts are for the bene- fit
1 of the Owner alone. Neither his authority to act nor his decision to exercise
or not exercise such authority shall give rise to any duty or respon- sibility
to the Contractor, any subcontractor, any manufacturer, fabricator, supplier or
distributor, or any of their agents or employees or any other per- son
performing any of the Work. The Resident Project Representatives author- ity
shall not exceed limitations on Engineer' s authority as set forth in the
Contract Documents nor shall the Resident Project Representative undertake any
I/ of the responsibilities of Contractor, Subcontractors, or Contractor's Super-
intendent.

ted", "as required", "as allowed", or terms of like effect or import are used,
or the adjectives "reasonable", "suitable", "acceptable", "proper", or "satis-
factory", or adjectives of like effect or import are used to describe require-
ments, direction, review or judgment of Engineer as to the Work, it is in-
tended that such requirements, direction, review or judgment will be solely to
evaluate the Work for compliance with the Contract Documents. The use of any
such term or adjective never indicates that Engineer shall have authority to11
supervise or direct performance of the Work or authority to undertake respon-
sibility contrary to the provisions of Paragraphs 7.1.9 or 7.1.10.

7.5 RIGHTS OF VARIOUS INTERESTS I/
Wherever Work being done by the Owner's forces or by other Contractors is con-
tiguous to Work covered by this Contract, the respective rights of the various ,
interests involved shall be established by agreement to secure the completion
of the various portions of the Work in general harmony.
7.6 SEPARATE CONTRACTS I
The Owner may let other contracts in connection with the Work of the Contrac-
tor. The Contractor shall cooperate with other Contractors with regard to
storage of materials and execution of their Work. It shall be the Contrac-
tor's responsibility to inspect all work by other Contractors affecting his
Work and to report to the Engineer any irregularities which will not permit
him to commence or complete his work in a satisfactory manner. His failure to
notify the Engineer of such irregularities shall indicate the work of other
Contractors has been satisfactorily completed to receive his Work. The Con- 1I
tractor shall not be responsible for defects of which he could not have known

to the Notice of Award and not objected to in writing by Owner or Engineer
prior to the Notice of Award will be deemed acceptable to Owner and Engineer. It
Acceptance of any Subcontractor, other person or organization by Owner or
Engineer shall not constitute a waiver of any right of Owner or Engineer to
reject defective Work. If Owner or Engineer after due investigation has
reasonable objection to any Subcontractor, other person or organization pro-
I/
posed by Contractor after the Notice of Award, Contractor shall submit another
acceptable Subcontractor at no change in the Contract Price. Contractor shall

Subcontractors and of persons and organizations directly or indirectly employed
II by them and of persons and organizations for whose acts any of them may be

omissions of persons directly employed by Contractor. Nothing in the Con-
tract Documents shall create any contractual relationship between Owner or
1 Engineer and any Subcontractor or other person or organization having a direct
contract with Contractor, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of
Owner or Engineer to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys due any Sub-
contractor or other person or organization, except as may otherwise be re-
quired by law. Owner or Engineer may furnish to any Subcontractor or other
person or organization, to the extent practicable, evidence of amounts paid to
Contractor on account of specific Work done.
I7.7.3 The divisions and sections of the Specifications and the identifica-
tions of any Drawings shall not control Contractor in dividing the Work among
IISubcontractors or delineating the Work to be performed by any specific trade.
7.7.4 All Work performed for Contractor by a Subcontractor will be pursuant to
1/ an appropriate agreement between Contractor and the Subcontractor which
specifically binds the Subcontractor to the applicable terms and conditions of
the Contract Documents for the benefit of Owner and Engineer and contains
waiver provisions as required by paragraph 6.1.4. Contractor shall pay each.
I Subcontractor a just share of any insurance moneys received by Contractor on
account of losses under policies issued pursuant to paragraph 6.1.4.

affect or modify any of the terms or obligations contained in any of the Con-
' tract Documents, and none of the provisions of the Contract Documents shall be
I/ held to be waived or modified by reason of any act whatsoever, other than by a
definitely agreed upon .waiver or modification thereof in writing, and no evi-
dence shall be introduced in any proceeding of any other waiver or modifica-
11 tion.

1 material supplier or vendor shall, by reason of race, creed, color or national
origin, discriminate against the person or persons who are qualified and
available to perform the Work to which such employment relates;
I (b) That no Contractor, material supplier or vendor shall, in any manner,

(c) Violation of this section shall be cause for cancellation or termina- I
tion of the Agreement between Owner and Contractor.
7.10 DECISIONS ON DISAGREEMENTS I
7.10.1 Claims, disputes, disagreements, or other matters in question between
the Contractor and the Owner relating to the execution or progress of the Work
or the interpretation of the Contract Documents shall be referred initially to 111
the Engineer for decision which he will render in writing within a reasonable
time.
7.10.2 Any claim, dispute, disagreement or other matter that has been
referred to the Engineer, except any which has been waived by the making or
acceptance of final payment, shall be subject to arbitration under Paragraph
7.11 below upon the written demand of either party. However, no demand for
arbitration of any such claim, dispute or other matter may be made until the
earlier of the date on which the Engineer has rendered his written decision,
or the tenth day after the parties have presented their evidence to the
Engineer or have been given a reasonable opportunity to do so, if the Engineer
has not rendered his written decision by that date.
7.10.3 If a decision of the Engineer is made in writing and states that it is I/
final but subject to appeal, no demand for arbitration of a claim, dispute or
other matter covered by such decision may be made later than thirty days after41
the date on which the party making the demand received the decision. The 11
failure to demand arbitration within said thirty days' period will result in
the Engineer's decision becoming final and binding upon the Owner and the Con-
tractor. If the Engineer renders a decision after arbitration proceedings
have been initiated, such decision may be entered as evidence but will not
supersede any arbitration proceedings unless the decision is acceptable to the
parties concerned.
7.11 ARBITRATION
7.11.1 All claims, disputes and other matters in question arising out of, or
relating to, the Contract Documents or the breach thereof, except for claims
which have been waived by the making or acceptance of final payment, or barred
by failure to demand arbitration within the time limits specified, shall be
decided by arbitration in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitra-
tion Rules of the American Arbitration Association then obtaining unless the
parties mutually agree otherwise. Prearbitration discovery shall be conducted
It
in accordance with Rules 26 through 37 of the Federal Rules of Civil Pro-
cedure. No arbitration relating to the Contract Documents shall include by
consolidation, joinder or otherwise, any person or entity (including the
Engineer) , not a party to this Agreement without the written consent of such
other person or entity. This agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically
enforceable under the prevailing arbitration law. The award rendered by the
arbitrators shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance 11
with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction.

8.2 EQUIVALENT MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT
Whenever materials or equipment are specified or described in the Drawings or
Specifications by using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a par-
ticular manufacturer, fabricator, supplier or distributor, the naming of the 11
item is intended to establish the type, function and quality required. Unless
the name is followed by words indicating that no substitution is permitted,
materials or equipment of other manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers or dis-
tributors may be accepted by Engineer if sufficient information is submitted
by Contractor to allow Engineer to determine that the material or equipment
proposed is equivalent to that named. The procedure for review by Engineer
will be as set forth in paragraphs 8.2.1 and 8.2.2 below as supplemented in
the General and Specific Requirements.

shall make written application to Engineer for acceptance thereof, certifying
that the proposed substitute will perform adequately the functions called for
by the general design, be similar and of equal substance to that specified and
be suited to the same use and capable of performing the same function as that
specified. The application will state whether or not acceptance of the sub11
-
stitute for use in the Work will require a change in the Drawings or Specifi-
cations to adapt the design to the substitute and whether or not incorporation
or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of
any license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from
that specified shall be identified in the application and available mainte-
nance, repair and replacement service will be indicated. The application will
also contain an itemized estimate of all costs that will result directly or
indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs of redesign and
claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which
shall be considered by Engineer in evaluating the proposed substitute. Engi-
neer may require Contractor to furnish at Contractor's expense additional data
I/
about the proposed substitute. Engineer will be the sole judge of acceptabil-
ity, and no substitute will be ordered or installed without Engineer's prior
written acceptance. Owner may require Contractor to furnish at Contractor's
11
expense a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any
substitute.

I8.16 ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK
If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective
II Work, Owner (and, prior to Engineer's recommendation of final payment, also
Engineer) prefers to accept it, Owner may do so. In such case, if acceptance
occurs prior to Engineer's recommendation of final payment, a Change Order
I shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Docu-
ments, including appropriate reduction in the Contract Price; or, if the
acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate amount shall be
paid by Contractor to Owner.
I8.17 OWNER MAY STOP THE WORK
If the Work is defective, or Contractor fails to supply sufficient skilled
workmen or suitable materials or equipment, Owner may order Contractor to stop
the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been
11 eliminated; however, this right of Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise
to any duty on the part of Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of
Contractor or any other party.
I/ 8.18 OWNER MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK
If Contractor fails within a reasonable time after written notice of Engineer
11 to proceed to correct the defective Work or to remove and replace rejected
Work as required by Engineer in accordance with Paragraph 8.15, or if Contrac-
tor fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents (in-
cluding any requirements of the progress schedule) , Owner may, after seven
il days' written notice to Contractor, and Contractor's Surety, correct and
remedy any such deficiency. In exercising its rights under this paragraph,
Owner shall proceed expeditiously. To the extent necessary to complete cor-
•
rective and remedial action, Owner may exclude Contractor from all or part of
li the site, take possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend Contractor's
services related thereto, take possession of Contractor' s tools, appliances,
II construction equipment and machinery at the site and incorporate in the Work
all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which Owner has paid
Contractor but which are stored elsewhere. Contractor shall allow Owner,
Owner' s representatives, agents and employees such access to the site as may
I be necessary to enable Owner to exercise its rights under this paragraph. All
direct and indirect costs of Owner in exercising such rights shall be charged
against Contractor in an amount reviewed by Engineer, and such amounts shall
I be deducted from the .Contract Price. Such direct and indirect costs shall in-
clude, in particular but without limitation, compensation for additional pro-
fessional services required and all costs of repair and replacement of work of
11 others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or replacement of Contrac-
tor' s defective Work. Contractor shall not be allowed an extension of the
Contract Time because of any delay in performance of the Work attributable to
the exercise by Owner of Owner' s rights hereunder.

shall be attached to the proposed Certificate a list of items ("punch list")
to be completed or corrected before final payment.
9.7.2 Owner shall have seven days after receipt of the Certificate during
which he may make written objection to Engineer as to any provisions of the
I Certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objections, Engineer
concludes that the Work is not substantially complete, Engineer will within

correct items on the list of items to be completed or corrected.
I/ 9.8 PARTIAL UTILIZATION
Use by Owner of completed portions of the work may be accomplished prior to
ISubstantial Completion of all the Work subject to the following:
9.8.1 Owner at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit Owner to
use any part of the Work which Owner believes to be substantially complete and
which may be so used without significant interference with construction of the
other parts of the Work. If Contractor agrees, Contractor will certify to
Owner and Engineer that said part of the Work is substantially complete and
I/ request Engineer to issue a proposed Certificate of Substantial Completion for
that part of the Work.
9.8.2 Within a reasonable time thereafter Owner, Contractor and Engineer
shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of
completion. If Engineer does not consider that part of the Work to be sub-
stantially complete, Engineer will notify Owner and Contractor in writing giv-
ing his reasons therefor. If Engineer considers that part of the Work to be
substantially complete, Engineer will execute and deliver to Owner and Con-
tractor a proposed Certificate to that effect, fixing the date of Substantial
Completion as to that part of the Work, attaching thereto a list of items to
be completed or corrected before final payment.

9.8.3 Prior to issuing a Certificate of Substantial Completion as to part of
the Work, Engineer will deliver to Owner and Contractor a written recommenda-
tion as to the division of responsibilities pending final payment between
Owner and Contractor with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance,
utilities and insurance for that part of the Work which shall become binding
upon Owner and Contractor at the time of issuing the final Certificate of Sub-
stantial Completion as to that part of the Work unless Owner and Contractor
shall have otherwise agreed in writing and so informed Engineer. Owner shall
have the right to exclude Contractor from any part of the Work which Engineer
has so certified to be substantially complete, but Owner shall allow Contrac-
tor reasonable access to complete or correct items on the list of items to be11
completed or corrected.
9.8.4 In lieu of the issuance of a Certificate of Substantial completion as
to part of the Work, Owner may take over operation of a facility constituting
part of the Work whether or not it is substantially complete if such facility
is functionally and separately usable; provided, that prior to any such take-
over, Owner and Contractor have agreed as to the division of responsibilities
between Owner and Contractor for security, operation, safety, maintenance,
correction period, heat, utilities and insurance with respect of such facility.
9.8.5 No occupancy of part of the Work or taking over of operations of a I/
facility will be accomplished prior to compliance with the requirements of
Section 6.1.4, Paragraph 3, in respect of property insurance. I
9.9 FINAL INSPECTION
Upon written notice from Contractor that the Work is complete, Engineer will
make a final inspection with Owner and Contractor and will notify Contractor
in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work
is incomplete or defective. Contractor shall immediately take such measures
as are necessary to remedy such deficiencies.
9.10 FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT
After Contractor has completed all items to be completed or corrected to the
satisfaction of Engineer and delivered all maintenance and operating instruc-
tions, schedules, guarantees, bonds, certificates of inspection, marked-up
record documents and other documents -- all as required by the Contract Docu-
ments, and after Engineer has indicated that the Work is acceptable (subject
to the provisions of Section 9.12) , Contractor may make Application for Final
1111
Payment following the procedure for progress payments. The Final Application
for Payment shall be accompanied by all documentation called for in the Con-
Ai
tract Documents and such other data and schedules as Engineer may reasonably
require, together with complete and legally effective releases or waivers11

with the Work. In lieu thereof and as approved by Owner, Contractor may fur-
nish receipts or releases in full; an affidavit of Contractor that the re-
leases and receipts include all labor, services, material and equipment for
which a Lien could be filed; a representation that all payrolls, material and
equipment bills, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which

11 Owner or his property might in any way be responsible, have been paid or
otherwise satisfied; and, consent of the Surety, if any, to final payment. If
any Subcontractor, manufacturer, fabricator, supplier or distributor fails to
I/ furnish a release or receipt in full, Contractor shall furnish a Bond or other
collateral satisfactory to Owner to indemnify Owner against any Lien.
I/ 9.11 FINAL PAYMENT AND ACCEPTANCE
9.11.1 If, on the basis of Engineer's observation of the Work during
I construction and final inspection, and Engineer's review of the Final
Application for Payment and accompanying documentation, all as required by the
Contract Documents, Engineer is satisfied that the Work has been completed and
Contractor has fulfilled all of his obligations under the Contract Documents,
Engineer will, within ten days after receipt of the Final Application for
Payment, indicate in writing his recommendation of payment and present the
application to Owner for payment. Thereupon Engineer will give written notice
to Owner and Contractor that the Work is acceptable subject to all applicable
provisions of the Contract Documents. Otherwise, Engineer will return the
Application to Contractor, indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to
recommend final payment, in which case Contractor shall make the necessary
I/ corrections and resubmit the Application.
9.11.2 If the Application and accompanying documentation are appropriate as
to form and substance, •Owner shall, within thirty days after receipt thereof
pay Contractor the amount recommended by Engineer. If, through no fault of
Contractor, final completion of the Work is significantly delayed thereof and
I/ " if Engineer so confirms, Owner shall, upon receipt of Contractor's Final
Application for Payment and recommendation of Engineer, and without terminat-
ing the Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the
Work fully completed and accepted.
I/ 9.11.3 If any remaining balance to be held by Owner for Work not fully com-
pleted or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agreement,
and if Bonds have been furnished as required herein, the written consent of
the Surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work
fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by Contractor to Engineer with
the Application for such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms
and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a
waiver of claims.
9.12 CONTRACTOR'S CONTINUING OBLIGATION
Contractor's obligation to perform and complete the Work in accordance with
the Contract Documents shall be absolute. Neither recommendation of any prog-
ress or final payment by Engineer, nor the issuance of a Certificate of Sub-
stantial Completion, nor any payment by Owner to Contractor under the Contract
Documents, nor any use or occupancy of the Work or any part thereof by Owner,
nor any act of acceptance by Owner nor any failure to do so, nor the issuance
of a notice of acceptability by Engineer pursuant to Sections 9.10 or 9.11,
nor any correction of defective Work by Owner shall constitute an acceptance

of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents or a release of Contrac-
tor' s obligation to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.13 WAIVER OF CLAIMS I
The making and acceptance of final payment shall constitute:
9.13.1 A waiver of all claims by Owner against Contractor, except claims
I/
arising from unsettled Liens, from defective work appearing after final in-
spection pursuant to Section 9.9 or from failure to comply with the Contract
Documents or the terms of any special warranties or guarantees specified
therein; however, it shall not constitute a waiver by Owner of any rights in
11
respect to Contractor' s continuing obligations under the Contract Documents;
and11
9.13.2 A waiver of all claims by Contractor against Owner other than those
previously made in writing and still unsettled.
SECTION 10
CHANGES IN THE WORK 1
10.1 CHANGE ORDERS
Without invalidating the Agreement, Owner may, at any time or from time to
11
time, order additions, deletions or revisions in the Work; these will be
authorized by Change Orders. Upon receipt of a Change Order, Contractor shall
proceed with the Work involved. All such Work shall be executed under the
applicable conditions of the Contract Documents. If any Change Order causes
an increase or decrease in the Contract Price or an extension or shortening of
the Contract time, an equitable adjustment will be made as provided in SectionI/
10 or Section 11 on the basis of a claim made by either party.
10.2 FIELD ORDERS
Engineer may authorize minor changes in the Work not involving an adjustment
in the Contract Price or the Contract Time, which are consistent with the
overall intent of the Contract Documents. These may be accomplished by a
Field Order and shall be binding on Owner, and also on Contractor who shall
11
perform the change promptly. If Contractor believes that a Field Order justi-
fies an increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time, Contractor may make a
claim therefor as provided herein.
10.3 UNAUTHORIZED WORK
Additional Work performed without authorization of a Change Order will not en-
title Contractor to an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Time, except in the case of an emergency.

11 10.4 ENGINEER RECOMMENDATIONS
Owner shall execute appropriate Change Orders prepared by Engineer covering
changes in the Work which are required by Owner, or required because of un-
foreseen physical conditions or emergencies, or because of uncovering Work
found not to be defective, or because of any other claim of Contractor for a
I/ change in the Contract Time or the Contract Price which is recommended by En-
gineer.
10.5 NOTICE OF CHANGE TO SURETY
I/ If notice of any change affecting the general scope of the Work or change in
the Contract Price is required by the provisions of any Bond to be given to
I/ the Surety, it will be Contractor's responsibility to so notify the Surety,
and the amount of each applicable Bond shall be adjusted accordingly. Con-
tractor shall furnish proof of such adjustment to Owner.
10.6 CLAIMS FOR ADDITIONAL COSTS
If the Contractor wishes to make a claim for an increase in the Contract Sum,
I he shall give the Engineer written notice thereof within ten (10) days after
the occurrence of the event giving rise to such claim. This notice shall be
given by the Contractor before proceeding to execute the Work, except in an
11 emergency endangering life or property in which case the Contractor shall pro-
ceed in accordance with Paragraph 10.7. No such claim shall be valid unless
so made. If the Owner and the Contractor cannot agree on the amount of the
adjustment in the Contract Sum, it shall be referred to the Engineer in accor-
I dance with Paragraph 7.8. Any change in the Contract Sum resulting from such
claim shall be authorized by Change Order.
I If the Contractor claims that additional cost is involved because of but not
limited to (1) any written interpretation of the engineer, (2) any order by
the Owner to stop the Work where the Contractor was not at fault, (3) any
written order for a minor change in the Work or (4) failure of payment by the
Owner, Contractor shall make such claim as provided in this Subparagraph.
10.7 WORK DURING AN EMERGENCY
10.7.1 In any emergency affecting the safety of persons or property, the Con-
tractor shall act to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. In all cases
11 he shall, as soon as practicable, notify the Owner of the emergency and he
shall not wait for the instructions before proceeding to protect both life and
property.
I/ 10.7.2 Any additional compensation or extension of time claimed by the Con-
tractor on account of said emergency work shall be determined under Paragraph
10.6.
