6.3 SUBSTITUTES AND "OR EQUAL" ITEMS Whenever an item of material or
equipment is specified or described in the Contract Documents by using the name of a
proprietary item or the name of a particular Supplier, the specification or description is
intended to establish the type, function and quality required. Unless the specification or
description contains or is followed by words reading that no like, equivalent or "or equal"
item or no substitution is permitted, other items of material or equipment or material or
equipment of other Suppliers may be accepted by Engineer. If in Engineer's sole discretion
an item of material or equipment proposed by Contractor is functionally equal to that
named and sufficiently similar so that no change in related Work will be required, it may
be considered by Engineer for approval. If in the Engineer's sole discretion an item of
material or equipment proposed by Contractor does not qualify as an "or equal" item, it
may be considered as a proposed substitute item. Contractor shall submit sufficient
information as required by the Engineer to allow the Engineer to determine that the item of
material or equipment proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and is an
acceptable substitute therefor. Request for review of proposed substitute and "or equal"
will be not be accepted by Engineer from anyone other than Contractor.
Request for substitute and "or equal" items by Contractor must be submitted in writing to
Engineer and will contain all information as Engineer deems necessary to make a
determination. All data provided by Contractor in support of any proposed substitute or
"or equal" item will be at Contractor's expense. Engineer will be allowed a reasonable
time to evaluate each proposal or submittal made per this paragraph. Engineer will be sole
judge of acceptability.

9.5 DECISIONS ON DISPUTES CONTINUED:
When functioning as interpreter and judge, Engineer will not show partiality to Owner or
Contractor and will not be liable in connection with any interpretation or decision rendered in good
faith in such capacity. The rendering of a decision by Engineer with respect to any such claim,
dispute or other matter will be a condition precedent to any exercise by Owner or Contractor of
such rights or remedies as either may otherwise have under the Contract Documents or by Laws or
Regulations in respect of any such claim, dispute or other matter pursuant the Article on Dispute
Resolution.
9.6 LIMITATIONS ON ENGINEER'S RESPONSIBILITIES - Neither Engineer's authority
or responsibility under this paragraph or under any other provision of the Contract Documents nor
any decision made by Engineer in good faith either to exercise or not exercise such authority or
responsibility or the undertaking, exercise or performance of any authority or responsibility by
Engineer shall create, impose or give rise to any duty owed by Engineer to Contractor, any
Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other person or organization or to any surety for or employee or
agent of any of them.
Engineer will not supervise, direct, control or have authority over or be responsible for Contractor's
means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or the safety precautions and
programs incident thereto, or for any failure of Contractor to comply with Laws and Regulations
applicable to the furnishing or performance of the work. Engineer will not be responsible for
Contractor's failure to perform or furnish the work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
Engineer will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of Contractor or of any Subcontractor,
any Supplier, or of any other person or organization performing or furnishing any of the work.
Engineer's review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying documentation and all
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds and certificates of inspection,
tests and approvals and other documentation required to be delivered by the Contractor will only be
to determine generally that their content complies with the requirements of the Contract Documents
and, in the case of certificates of inspections, tests and approvals that the results certified indicate
compliance with the Contract Documents.
The limitations upon authority and responsibility set forth in this paragraph shall also apply to
Engineer's Consultants and assistants.
10. CHANGES IN THE WORK - Without invalidating the Agreement and without notice to any
surety, Owner may, at any time or from time to time, order additions, deletions or revisions in the
Work. Such additions, deletions or revisions will be authorized by a Written Amendment, a
Change Order, or a Work Change Directive. Upon receipt of any such document, Contractor shall
promptly proceed with the Work involved which will be performed under the applicable conditions
of the Contract Documents (except as may otherwise be specifically provided).

10. CHANGES IN THE WORK CONTINUED:
If Owner and Contractor are unable to agree as to the extent, if any, of an adjustment in the Contract
Price or an adjustment of the Contract Time that should be allowed as a result of a Work Change
Directive, a claim may be made therefor as provided in these General Conditions.
Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract
Time with respect to any Work performed that is not required by the Contract Documents as
amended, modified and supplemented as provided in these General Conditions except in the case of
an emergency as provided or in the case of uncovering work as provided in article for Uncovering
Work.
Owner and Contractor shall execute appropriate Change Orders or Written Amendments
recommended by Engineer covering:
changes in the work which are (i) ordered by Owner (ii) required because of acceptance of
defective work under the article for Acceptance of Defective Work or correcting defective
Work under the article for Owner May Correct Defective Work or (iii) agreed to by the
parties;
changes in the Contract Price or Contract Time which are agreed to by the parties; and
changes in the Contract Price or Contract Time which embody the substance of any written
decision rendered by Engineer pursuant to the article for Decisions on Disputes;
provided that, in lieu of executing any such Change Order, an appeal may be taken from any
such decision in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents and applicable
Laws and Regulations, but during any such appeal, Contractor shall carry on the Work and
adhere to the progress schedule as provided in the article for Continuing the Work.
If notice of any change affecting the general scope of the work or the provisions of the Contract
Documents (including, but not limited to, Contract Price or Contract Time) is required by the
provisions of any Bond to be given to a surety, the giving of any such notice will be Contractor's
responsibility, and the amount of each applicable Bond will be adjusted accordingly.
11. CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT PRICE
11.1 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT PRICE The Contract Price constitutes the total
compensation (subject to authorized adjustments) payable to Contractor for performing the Work.
All duties, responsibilities and obligations assigned to or undertaken by Contractor shall be at
Contractor's expense without change in the Contract Price. The Contract Price may only be adjusted
by a Change Order or by a Written Amendment. Any claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price
shall be based on a written notice of claim stating the general nature of the claim, to be delivered by
the party making the claim to the other party and to Engineer promptly (but in no event later than
thirty days) after the start of the occurrence or event giving rise to the claim. Notice of the amount of
the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within sixty days after the start of such occurrence
East APCF Motor Control Upgrades
0992-0089
General Conditions
GC-25
11.1 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT PRICE CONTINUED:
or event (unless Engineer allows additional time for claimant to submit additional or more accurate
data in support of the claim) and shall be accompanied by claimant's written statement that the
claimed adjustment covers all known amounts to which the claimant is entitled as a result of said
occurrence or event. No claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will be valid if not submitted
in accordance with this paragraph. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order or of any
claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will be determined as follows: (i) where the Work
involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by application of such unit
prices to the quantities of the items involved (ii) where the Work involved is not covered by unit
prices contained in the Contract Documents, by a mutually agreed lump sum (which may include an
allowance for overhead and profit), (iii) where the Work is not covered by unit prices contained in
the Contract Documents and agreement is reached to establish unit prices for the Work.
11.2 ALLOWANCES AND FINAL CONTRACT PRICE ADJUSTMENT It is understood that
Contractor has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the Contract Documents
and shall cause the Work so covered to be furnished and performed for such sums as may be
acceptable to Owner and Engineer. Contractor agrees that: (i) the allowances include the cost to
Contractor (less any applicable trade discounts) of materials and equipment required by the
allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and (ii) Contractor's costs for
unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs, overhead, profit and other expenses
contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract Price and not in the allowances
and no demand for additional payment on account of any of the foregoing will be valid.
Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by Engineer to
reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of Work covered by allowances and all the Work
actually performed by the Contractor, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly adjusted.
11.3 UNIT PRICE WORK Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work
is to be Unit Price Work, initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price
Work an amount equal to the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of
unit price work times the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement. The
estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of
comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of the actual quantities
and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by Engineer. Each unit
price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to cover
Contractor's overhead and profit for each separately identified item. Owner or Contractor may make
a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price if: (i) the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work
performed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item
indicated in the Contract Documents; and (ii) there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to
any other item of Work; and (iii) if Contractor believes that Contractor is entitled to an increase in
Contract. Price as a result of having incurred additional expense or Owner believes that Owner is
entitled to a decrease in Contract Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any
such increase or decrease. On unit price contracts, the Owner endeavors to provide adequate unit
quantities to satisfactorily complete the construction of the project. It is expected that in the normal
course of project construction and completion that not all unit quantities will be used in their entirety

and that a finalizing change order which adjusts contract unit quantities to those unit quantities
actually used in the construction of the project will result in a net decrease from the original Contract
Price. Such reasonable deduction of final Contract Price should be anticipated by the Contractor in
his original bid.
12. CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT TIME
The Contract Time (or Milestones) may only be changed by a Change Order or a Written
Amendment. Any claim for an adjustment of the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be based on
written notice delivered by the party making the claim to the other party and to Engineer promptly
(but in no event later than thirty days) after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim and
stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of the extent of the claim with supporting data shall be
delivered within sixty days after such occurrence (unless Engineer allows an additional period of
time to ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim) and shall be accompanied by the
claimant's written statement that the adjustment claimed is the entire adjustment to which the
claimant has reason to believe it is entitled as a result of the occurrence of said event. All claims for
adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be determined by Engineer. No claim for an
adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) will be valid if not submitted in accordance with the
requirements of this paragraph.
All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Agreement.
Where Contractor is prevented from completing any part of the work within the Contract Time (or
Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Time (or Milestones) may be
extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a claim is made therefor as provided
in the article for Changes in the
Work. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts by Owner,
acts of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by the article for
Other Work, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions or acts of God. Delays
attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays
within the control of Contractor.
Where Contractor is prevented from completing any part of the Work within the Contract Times (or
Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both Owner and Contractor, an extension of the
Contract Time (or Milestones) in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay shall be
Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for such delay. In no event shall Owner be liable to
Contractor, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other person, or to any surety for or employee or
agent of any of them, for damages arising out of or resulting from (i) delays caused by or within the
control of Contractor, or (ii) delays beyond the control of both parties including but not limited to
fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, acts of God or acts by utility owners or other
contractors performing other work as contemplated by paragraph for Other Work.

13. TESTS AND INSPECTIONS, CORRECTION, REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF
DEFECTIVE WORK -
13.1 TESTS AND INSPECTION - Contractor shall give Engineer timely notice of readiness of the
Work for all required inspections, tests or approvals, and shall cooperate with inspection and testing
personnel to facilitate required inspections or tests.
Owner shall employ and pay for the services of an independent testing laboratory to perform all
inspections, tests, or approvals required by the Contract Documents or perform these testing services
with the Owner's and/or Engineer's staff except for inspections, tests or approvals as otherwise
provided in the Contract Documents. The costs for these inspections, tests or approvals shall be
borne by the Owner except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents.
If Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction require any Work (or part thereof)
specifically to be inspected, tested or approved by an employee or other representative of such public
body including all City Building Departments and City Utility Departments, Contractor shall assume
full responsibility for arranging and obtaining such inspections, tests or approvals, pay all costs in
connection therewith, and furnish Engineer the required certificates of inspection or approval.
Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, City permit and impact fees will be waived.
Contractor shall also be responsible for arranging and obtaining and shall pay all costs in connection
with any inspections, tests or approvals required for Owner's and Engineer's acceptance of materials
or equipment to be incorporated in the Work, or of materials, mix designs, or equipment submitted
for approval prior to Contractor's purchase thereof for incorporation of the Work.
If any Work (or the work of others) that. is to be inspected tested or approved is covered by
Contractor without written concurrence of Engineer, it must, if requested by Engineer, be uncovered
for observation. Uncovering Work as provided in this paragraph shall be at Contract's expense unless
Contractor has given Engineer timely notice of Contractor's intention to cover the same and Engineer
has not acted with reasonable promptness in response to such notice.
13.2 UNCOVERING THE WORK - If any Work is covered contrary to the written request of
Engineer, it must, if requested by Engineer, be uncovered for Engineer's observation and replaced at
Contractor's expense.

13.2 UNCOVERING THE WORK CONTINUED:
If Engineer considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by Engineer or
inspected or tested by others, Contractor, at Engineer's request, shall uncover, expose or otherwise
make available for observation, inspection or testing as Engineer may require, that portion of the
Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor, material and equipment. If it is found that such
Work is defective, Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by, arising out of
or resulting from such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection and testing and of satisfactory
replacement or reconstruction (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work
of others); and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price for the costs
of the investigation, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, may make a claim
therefor as provided in the article for Change in Contract Price. If, however, such Work is not found
to be defective, Contractor shall be allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Time (or Milestones), or both, directly attributable to such uncovering, exposure,
observation, inspection, testing, replacement and reconstruction; and, if the parties are unable to
agree as to the amount or extent thereof, Contractor may make a claim therefor as provided the article
for Change in Contract Price and Change of Contract Time.
13.3 ENGINEER MAY STOP THE WORK - If the Work is defective, or Contractor fails to
supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment, or fails to furnish or perform the
Work in such a way that the completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents, Engineer
may order Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been
eliminated; however, this right of Engineer to stop the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the
part of Engineer or Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor or any surety or other
party. If the Engineer stops Work under this paragraph, Contractor shall be entitled to no extension
of Contract Time or increase in Contract Price.
13.4 CORRECTION OR REMOVAL OF DEFECTIVE WORK - If required by Engineer,
Contractor shall promptly, as directed, either correct all defective Work, whether or not fabricated,
installed or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by Engineer, remove it from the site and
replace it with Work that is not defective. Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages
caused by or resulting from such correction or removal (including but not limited to all costs of repair
or replacement of work of others).
13.5 WARRANTY/CORRECTION PERIOD - If within one year after the date of Substantial
Completion or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by Laws or Regulations or by the
terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents or by any specific
provision of the Contract Documents, any Work is found to be defective, Contractor shall promptly,
without cost to Owner and in accordance with Owner's written instructions; (i) correct such defective
Work, or, if it has been rejected by Owner, remove it from the site and replace it with Work that is
not defective and (ii) satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any damage to other Work or the
work of others resulting therefrom. If Contractor does not promptly comply with the terms of such
instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, Owner may
have the defective Work corrected or the rejected. Work removed and replaced, and all claims, costs,
losses and damages caused by or resulting from such removal and replacement (including but not
limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid by Contractor.

13.5 WARRANTY/CORRECTION PERIOD CONTINUED:
In special circumstances where a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service before
Final Completion of all the Work, the correction period for that item may start to run from an earlier
date if specifically and expressly so provided in the Specifications or by Written Amendment.
Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed
or replaced under this paragraph the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work will be
extended for an additional period of one year after such correction or removal and replacement has
been satisfactorily completed.
13.6 ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK - If, instead of requiring correction or removal
and replacement of defective Work, Owner prefers to accept it, Owner may do so.
Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to Owner's evaluation of and
determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by Engineer as to
reasonableness). If any such acceptance occurs prior to Engineer's recommendation of final payment,
a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with
respect to the Work; and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price,
and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, Owner may make a claim therefor as
provided in article for Change of Contract Price. If the acceptance occurs after the Engineer's
recommendation for final payment an appropriate amount will be paid by Contractor to Owner.
13.7 OWNER MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK - If Contractor fails within a reasonable
time after written notice from Engineer to correct defective Work or to remove and replace rejected
Work as required by Engineer in accordance with the article for Correction and Removal of
Defective Work or if Contractor fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents, or if Contractor fails to comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents,
Owner may, after seven days' written notice to Contractor, correct and remedy any such deficiency.
In exercising the rights and remedies under this paragraph Owner shall proceed expeditiously. In
connection with such corrective and remedial action, Owner may exclude Contractor from all or part
of 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, 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, Owner's other contractors, and Engineer and Engineer's
Consultants access to the site to enable Owner to exercise the rights and remedies under this
paragraph. All claims, costs, losses and damages incurred or sustained by Owner in exercising such
rights and remedies will be charged against Contractor and a Change Order will be issued
incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and
Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the

claim therefor as provided in the article for Change of Contract Price. Such claims, costs, losses and
damages will include but not be limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others
destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or replacement of Contractor's defective Work.
Contractor shall not be allowed an extension of the Contract Time (or Milestones) because of any
delay in the performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by Owner of Owner's rights and
remedies hereunder.
14. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION
Progress payments on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units completed.
14.1 APPLICATION FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT - Contractor shall submit (not more often
than once a month) to Engineer for review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by
Contractor covering the Work completed as of the 25th of each month and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as is required by the Engineer and the Contract Documents. Unless
otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, payment will not be made for materials and equipment
not incorporated in the Work. Payment will only be made for that portion of the Work which is fully
installed including all materials, labor and equipment. A retainage of not less than five (5%) of the
amount of each Application for Payment for the total of all Work completed to date will be held until
final completion and acceptance of the Work covered in the Contract Documents. No progress
payment shall be construed to be acceptance of any portion of the Work under contract.
In addition to all other payment provisions set out in this contract, the Engineer may require the
Contractor to produce for the Owner, within fifteen days of the approval of any progress payment,
evidence and/or payment affidavit that all subcontractors and suppliers have been paid any sum or
sums then due. A failure on the part of the contractor to provide the report as required herein shall
result in further progress or partial payments being withheld until the report is provided.
14.2 CONTRACTOR'S WARRANTY OF TITLE Contractor warrants and guarantees that
title to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether
incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to Owner no later than the time of payment, free and clear
of liens. No materials or supplies for the Work shall be purchased by Contractor or Subcontractor
subject to any chattel mortgage or under a conditional sale contact or other agreement by which an
interest is retained by the seller. Contractor warrants that he has good title to all materials and
supplies used by him in the Work, free from all liens, claims or encumbrances. Contractor shall
indemnify and save Owner harmless from all claims growing out of the lawful demands of
Subcontractors, laborers, workmen, mechanics, materialmen, and furnisher's of machinery and parts
thereof, equipment, power tools, and all supplies incurred in the furtherance of the performance of
this Contract. Contractor shall at Owner's request, furnish satisfactory evidence that all obligations of
the nature hereinabove designated have been paid, discharged, or waived. If Contractor fails to do
so, then Owner may, after having served written notice on said Contractor either pay unpaid bills, of
which Owner has written notice, or
East APCF Motor Control Upgrades
0992-0089
General Conditions
GC-31
14.2 CONTRACTOR'S WARRANTY OF TITLE CONTINUED:
withhold from the Contractor's unpaid compensation a sum of money deemed reasonably sufficient
to pay any and all such lawful claims until satisfactory evidence is furnished that all liabilities have
been fully discharged, whereupon payment to Contractor shall be resumed in accordance with the
terms of this Contract, but in no event shall the provisions of this sentence be construed to impose
any obligations upon Owner to the Contractor or the Surety. In paying any unpaid bills of the
Contractor, Owner shall be deemed the agent of Contractor and any payment so made by Owner shall
be considered as payment made under the Contract by Owner to Contractor, and Owner shall not be
liable to Contractor for any such payment made in good faith.
14.3 REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS FOR PROGRESS PAYMENTS Engineer will within
twenty days after receipt of each Application for payment, either indicate a recommendation of
payment and present Application to Owner, or return the Application to Contractor indicating
Engineer's reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the
necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. Engineer may refuse to recommend the whole
or any part of any payment to the Owner. Engineer may also refuse to recommend any such
payment, or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or
test, nullifY any such payment previously recommended, to such extent as may be necessary in
Engineer's opinion to protect Owner from loss because: (i) the Work is defective, or completed Work
has been damaged requiring correction or replacement, (ii) the Contract Price has been reduced by
amendment or Change Order, (iii) Owner has been required to correct defective Work or complete
Work, or (iv) Engineer has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
the article on Suspension of Work and Termination.
Owner may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by the Engineer because: (i)
claims have been made against Owner on account of Contractor's performance or furnishing of the
Work, (ii) Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, except where Contractor has delivered
a specific Bond satisfactory to Owner to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens, (iii)
there are other items entitling Owner to a set-off against the amount recommended, or (iv) Owner has
actual knowledge of any of the events described in this paragraph. The Owner shall give Contractor
immediate notice of refusal to pay with a copy to the Engineer, stating the reasons for such actions,
and the Owner shall promptly pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto
agreed to by Owner and Contractor, when Contractor corrects to Owner's satisfaction the reasons for
such action.
14.4 PARTIAL UTILIZATION - Use by Owner at Owner's option of any substantially completed
part ofthe Work which (i) has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or (ii) Owner,
Engineer and Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that
can be used by Owner for its intended purpose without significant interference with Contractor's
performance of the remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Final Completion of all the
Work subject to the following:

14.4 PARTIAL UTILIZATION CONTINUED:
Owner at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit Owner to use any such part of the
Work which Owner believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If
Contractor agrees that such part of the Work is substantially complete, Contractor will certify to
Owner and Engineer that such part of the Work is substantially complete and request Engineer to
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Contractor at any time may
notify Owner and Engineer in writing that Contractor considers any such part of the Work ready for
its intended use and substantially complete and request Engineer to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request, 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 substantially complete,
Engineer will notify Owner and Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefor. If Engineer
considers that part of the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions of the articles for
Substantial Completion and Partial Utilization will apply with respect to certification of Substantial
Completion of that part of the Work and the division of responsibility in respect thereof and access
thereto.
14.5 FINAL INSPECTION - Upon written notice from Contractor that the entire Work or an
agreed portion thereof 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
complete such Work or remedy such deficiencies.
14.6 FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT - After Contractor has completed all such
corrections to the satisfaction of Engineer and has delivered in accordance with the Contract
Documents all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates or
other evidence of insurance required by the paragraph for Bonds and Insurance, certificates of
inspection, marked-up record documents as may be required in the Contract Documents and other
documents, Contractor may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress
payments. The final Application for Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously delivered)
by: (I) all documentation called for in the Contract Documents, including but not limited to the
evidence of insurance required by paragraph for Bonds and Insurance, (ii) consent of the surety, if
any or if necessary, to final payment, and (iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers
(satisfactory to Owner) of all Liens arising out of or filed in connection with the Work. In lieu of
such releases or waivers of Liens and as approved by Owner, Contractor may furnish receipts or
releases in full and an affidavit of Contractor that: (i) the releases and receipts include all labor,
services, material and equipment for which a Lien could be filed, and (ii) all payrolls, material and
equipment bills and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which Owner or Owner's
property might in any way be responsible have been paid or otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor
or Supplier fails to furnish such a release or receipt in full, Contractor may furnish a Bond or other
collateral satisfactory to Owner to indemnify Owner against any Lien.
Prior to application for final payment, Contractor shall clean and remove from the premises all
surplus and discarded materials, rubbish, and temporary structures, and shall restore in an acceptable
manner all property, both public and private, which has been damaged during the prosecution of the
Work, and shall leave the Work in a neat and presentable condition.

14.7 FINAL PAYMENT AND ACCEPTANCE - If through no fault of Contractor, final
completion of the Work is significantly delayed and if Engineer so confirms, Owner shall, upon
receipt of Contractor's final Application for payment and recommendation of Engineer, and without
terminating the Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully
completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be held by Owner for Work not fully completed
or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished
as required in paragraph for Bonds and Insurance, 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 such payment shall not constitute a
waiver of claims.
If on the basis of Engineer's observation of the Work during 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's other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled, Engineer will
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 the provisions of this article. 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 corrections and resubmit the Application. If the Application and
accompanying documentation are appropriate as to form and substance, Owner shall, within sixty-
five days after receipt thereof pay contractor the amount recommended by Engineer.
14.8 WAIVER OF CLAIMS - The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute:
a waiver of all claims by Owner against Contractor, except claims arising from unsettled Liens, from
defective Work appearing after final inspection, from failure to comply with the Contract Documents
or the terms of any special guarantees specified therein, or from Contractor's continuing obligations
under the Contract Documents; and a waiver of all claims by Contractor against Owner other than
those previously made in writing and still unsettled.
15. SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION
15.1 OWNER MAY SUSPEND THE WORK - At any time and without cause, Engineer may
suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more than ninety days by notice in
writing to Contractor which will fix the date on which Work will be resumed. Contractor shall
resume the Work on the date so fixed. Contractor shall be allowed an adjustment in the Contract
Price or an extension of the Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to any such suspension if
Contractor makes an approved claim therefor as provided in the articles for Change of Contract Price
and Change of Contract Time.

15. SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION CONTINUED:
15.2 OWNER MAY TERMINATE - Upon the occurrence of any one or more ofthe following
events; if Contractor persistently fails to perform the work in accordance with the Contract
Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable
materials or equipment or failure to adhere to the progress schedule as adjusted from time to time);
if Contractor disregards Laws and Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
if Contractor disregards the authority of Engineer;
if Contractor otherwise violates in any substantial way any provisions of the Contract
Documents; or if the Work to be done under this Contract is abandoned, or if this Contract
or any part thereof is sublet, without the previous written consent of Owner, or if the
Contract or any claim thereunder is assigned by Contractor otherwise than as herein
specified, or at any time Engineer certifies in writing to Owner that the rate of progress of
the Work or any part thereof is unsatisfactory or that the work or any part thereof is
unnecessarily or unreasonably delayed.
Owner may, after giving Contractor (and the surety, if any), seven days' written notice and, to the
extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, terminate the services of Contractor, exclude Contractor
from the site and take possession of the Work and of all Contractor's tools, appliances, construction
equipment and machinery at the site and use the same to the full extent they could be used by
Contractor (without liability to Contractor for trespass or conversion), incorporate in the Work all
materials and equipment stored at the site or for which Owner has paid Contractor but which are
stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as Owner may deem expedient. In such case Contractor shall
not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of
the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by Owner arising out of
or resulting from completing the Work such excess will be paid to Contractor.
If such claims, costs, losses and damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the
difference to Owner. Such claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by Owner will be reviewed
by Engineer as to their reasonableness and when so approved by Engineer incorporated in a Change
Order, provided that when exercising any rights or remedies under this paragraph Owner shall not
be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.
Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by Owner, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of Owner against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by Owner will not release Contractor from liability.

15.2 OWNER MAY TERMINATE CONTINUED:
Upon seven days' written notice to Contractor and Engineer, Owner may, without cause and
without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Owner, elect to terminate the Agreement. In such
case, Contractor shall be paid (without duplication of any items):
for completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents
prior to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead
and profit on such Work;
for expenses sustained prior to the effective date of termination in performing services and
furnishing labor, materials or equipment as required by the Contract Documents in
connection with uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit
on such expenses;
for all claims, costs, losses and damages incurred in settlement of terminated contracts with
Subcontractors, Suppliers and others; and for reasonable expenses directly attributable to
termination.
Contractor shall not be paid on account of loss of anticipated profits or revenue or other economic
loss arising out of or resulting from such termination.
15.3 CONTRACTOR MAY STOP WORK OR TERMINATE - If, through, no act or fault of
Contractor, the Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety days by Owner or under an
order of court or other public authority, or Engineer fails to act on any Application for Payment
within sixty days after it is submitted or Owner fails for sixty days to pay Contractor any sum
finally determined to be due, then Contractor may, upon seven days' written notice to Owner and
Engineer, and provided Owner or Engineer do not remedy such suspension or failure within that
time, terminate the Agreement and recover from Owner payment on the same terms as provided in
the article for Owner May Terminate. However, if the Work is suspended under an order of court
through no fault of the Owner, the Contractor shall not be entitled to payment except as the Court
may direct. In lieu of terminating the Agreement and without prejudice to any other right or
remedy, if Engineer has failed to act on an Application for Payment within thirty days after it is
submitted, or Owner has failed for thirty days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be
due, Contractor may upon seven day's written notice to Owner and Engineer stop the Work until
payment of all such amounts due Contractor. The provisions of this article are not intended to
prelude Contractor from making claim under paragraphs for Change of Contract Price or Change of
Contract Time or otherwise for expenses or damage directly attributable to Contractor's stopping
Work as permitted by this article.

bottom shall be true and even in order to provide support for the full
length of the pipe barrel, except that slight depression may be provided to
allow withdrawal of pipe slings or other lifting-tackle.
4. When excavation of rock is encountered, all rock shall be removed to
provide a clearance of at least 6-inches below and on each side of all
pipe, valves, and fittings for pipe sizes 24-inches or smaller, and 9-inches
for pipe 30- inches and larger. When excavation is completed, a bed of
sand, crushed stone or earth that is free from stones, large clods, or
frozen earth shall be placed on the bottom of the trench to the previously
mentioned depths, leveled, and tamped. These clearances and bedding
procedures shall also be observed for pieces of concrete or masonry and
other debris or subterranean structures, such as masonry walls, piers, or
foundations that may be encountered during excavation.
5. This installation procedure shall be followed when gravel formations
containing loose boulders greater than 8 inches in diameter are
encountered. In all cases, the specified clearances shall be maintained
between the bottom of all pipe and appurtenances and any part,
projection, or point of rock, boulder, or stones of sufficient size and
placement which, in the opinion of the Engineer could cause fulcrum
point.
6. Should the trench pass over a sewer or other previous excavation, the
trench bottom shall be sufficiently compacted to provide support equal to
that of the native soil or conform to other regulatory requirements in a
manner that will prevent damage to the existing installation.
7. When the subgrade is found to be unstable or to include ashes, cinders,
refuse, organic material, or other unsuitable material, such material shall
be removed, to a minimum of at least 3-inches, or to the depth ordered
by the Engineer and replaced under the directions of the Engineer with

placed in the trench. During laying operations, no debris, tools, clothing, or other
materials shall be placed in the pipe.
E. As each length of pipe is placed in the trench, the joint shall be assembled and
the pipe brought to correct line and grade. The pipe shall be secured in place
with approved backfill material.
F. At times when pipe laying is not in progress, the open ends of pipe shall be
closed by a watertight plug or other means approved by the Engineer. When
practical, the plug shall remain in place until the trench is pumped completely
dry. Care shall be taken to prevent pipe flotation should the trench fill with water.
G. Trench width at the top of pipe, bedding conditions, and backfill placement and
compaction shall be such that design loadings on the pipe will not be exceeded.
H. Joint Assembly: Pipe joints shall be assembled in accordance with the
Manufacturer's instructions and the requirements of ANSI/AWWA C6DD.
