Owner's Representative will render a formal decision in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of the opposing party's submittal, if any, in accordance with this paragraph. Owner Representative's written decision on such claim, dispute or other matter will be final and binding upon the Owner and Contractor unless (i) an appeal from Owner Representative's decision is taken within thirty (30) days of the Owner Representative's decision, or the appeal time which may be stated in a Dispute Resolution Agreement between Owner and Contractor for the settlement of disputes or (ii) if no such Dispute Resolution Agreement has been entered into, a written notice of intention to appeal from Owner Representative's written decision is delivered by the Owner or Contractor to the other and to Owner's Representative within thirty (30) days after the date of such decision and a formal proceeding is instituted by the appealing party in a forum of competent jurisdiction to exercise such rights or remedies as the appealing party may have with respect to such claim, dispute or other matter in accordance with applicable Laws and Regulations within sixty (60) days of the date of such decision, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Owner and Contractor.

LIMITATIONS ON OWNER REPRESENTATIVE'S RESPONSIBILITIES Neither Owner Representative's authority or responsibility under this paragraph or under any other provision of the Contract Documents nor any decision made by Owner's Representative 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 Owner's Representative shall create, impose or give rise to any duty owed by Owner's Representative to Contractor, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other person or organization or to any surety for or employee or agent of any of them. Owner's Representative 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.

The limitations upon authority and responsibility set forth in this paragraph shall also apply to Owner Representative's CEI, the Engineer's Consultants, and assistants. 10. CHANGES IN THE WORK Without invalidating the Agreement and without notice to any surety, the 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). If the 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 therefore as provided in these General Conditions. SECTION III Page 28 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — 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. The Owner and Contractor shall execute appropriate Change Orders or Written Amendments recommended by Owner's Representative covering: • changes in the work which are (i) ordered by the 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 Owner's Representative 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 Owner's Representative or 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 (60) days after the start of such occurrence or event, unless Owner's Representative 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 SECTION III Page 29 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 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. Where the work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and where the Owner' s Representative, the Owner, the Engineer, the Engineer's Consultant, and Contractor cannot mutually agree on a lump sum price, the City of Clearwater shall pay for directed changes in the Work, on "COST REIMBURSEMENT" basis. The Contractor shall apply for compensation, detailing Contractors forces, materials, equipment, subcontractors, and other items of direct costs required for the directed work. The application for Cost Reimbursement shall be limited to the following items: 1. Labor, including foremen, for those hours associated with the direct work (actual payroll cost, including wages, fringe benefits, labor insurance and labor taxes established by law). Expressly excluded from this item are all costs associated with negotiating the subject change. 2. Materials associated with the change, including sales tax. The costs of materials shall be substantiated through vendors' invoices. 3. Rental or equivalent rental costs of equipment, including necessary transportation costs if specifically used for the Work. The rental rates shall not exceed the current rental rates prevailing in the locality or as defined in the rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment (a.k.a. DataQuest Blue Book). The rental rate is defined as the full- unadjusted base rental rate for the appropriate item of construction equipment and shall cover the costs of all fuel, supplies, repairs, insurance, and other costs associated with supplying the equipment for work ordered. Contractor -owned equipment will be paid for the duration of time required to complete the work. Utilize lowest cost combination of hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly rates. Do not exceed estimated operating costs given in Blue Book. Operating costs will not be allowed for equipment on stand -by. 4. Additional costs for Bonds, Insurance if required by the City of Clearwater. The following fixed fees shall be added to the costs of the directed work performed by the Contractor or Subcontractor. A. A fixed fee of fifteen percent (15 %) shall be added to the costs of Item 1 above. If work is performed by a subcontractor, the Contractor's fee shall not exceed five percent (5 %), and the subcontractor's fee shall not exceed ten percent (10 %). B. A fixed fee of ten percent (10 %) shall be added to the costs of Item 2 above. C. No markup shall be added to the costs of Items 3 and 4. The fixed fees shall be considered the full compensation for all cost of general supervision, overhead, profit, and other general expense. 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 SECTION III Page 30 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 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 Owner's Representative 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 Owner's Representative. 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. The 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 the Owner believes that the 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, 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 Owner's Representative promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) 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 (60) days after such occurrence, unless Owner's Representative 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 SECTION III Page 31 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions Time (or Milestones) shall be determined by Owner's Representative. 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 therefore 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 the 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 the 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 the 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 Owner's Representative and 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. Contractor shall employ and pay for the services of an independent testing laboratory to perform all inspections, tests, or approvals required by the Contract Documents. The costs for these inspections, tests or approvals shall be borne by the Contractor 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 Owner Building Departments and Owner Utility Departments, Contractor shall assume full responsibility for arranging and obtaining such inspections, tests or approvals, pay all costs in connection therewith, and furnish Owner's Representative the required certificates of inspection or approval. Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, Owner 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, SECTION III Page 32 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 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 Owner's Representative, it must, if requested by Owner's Representative, be uncovered for observation. Uncovering Work as provided in this paragraph shall be at Contractor's expense unless Contractor has given Owner's Representative and Engineer timely notice of Contractor's intention to cover the same and Owner's Representative 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 Owner's Representative, it must, if requested by Owner's Representative, be uncovered for Owner Representative's observation and replaced at Contractor's expense. If Owner's Representative considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by Owner's Representative or inspected or tested by others, Contractor, at Owner Representative's request, shall uncover, expose or otherwise make available for observation, inspection or testing as Engineer or Owner's Representative 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 the 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 therefore 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 therefore as provided the article for Change in Contract Price and Change of Contract Time. 13.3. OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE 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 or Owner's Representative may order Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of Owner's Representative to stop the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of Owner's Representative or Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor or any surety or other party. If the Owner's Representative 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 or Owner's Representative, 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 or Owner's Representative, 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 SECTION III Page 33 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 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 the Owner and in accordance with the Owner's written instructions; (i) correct such defective Work, or, if it has been rejected by the 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, the 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. 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, the Owner prefers to accept it, the Owner may do so. Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to the Owner's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work such costs to be approved by Owner's Representative as to reasonableness. If any such acceptance occurs prior to Owner Representative'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 the 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, the Owner may make a claim therefore as provided in article for Change of Contract Price. If the acceptance occurs after the Owner Representative's recommendation for final payment an appropriate amount will be paid by Contractor to the Owner. 13.7. OWNER MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK If Contractor fails within a reasonable time after written notice from Owner's Representative to correct defective Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by Owner's Representative 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 SECTION III Page 34 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 • • • SECTION III — General Conditions Contractor fails to comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents, the Owner may, after seven days' written notice to Contractor, correct and remedy any such deficiency. In exercising the rights and remedies under this paragraph the Owner shall proceed expeditiously. In connection with such corrective and remedial action, the 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, and incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which the Owner has paid Contractor but which are stored elsewhere. Contractor shall allow Owner, Owner's Representatives, Agents and employees, the Owner's other contractors, and Owner's Representative, Engineer, and Engineer's Consultants access to the site to enable the Owner to exercise the rights and remedies under this paragraph. All claims, costs, losses and damages incurred or sustained by the 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 the 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, the Owner may make a claim therefore 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 the Owner of the Owner's rights and remedies hereunder. 14. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION Requests for payment shall be processed in accordance with F.S. 218.735 and as described herein. 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 Owner's Representative for review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by Contractor covering the Work completed once each month and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the Owner's Representative 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, including as -built survey and Inspector overtime reimbursement, 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. The Contractor shall review with the Engineer or the Construction Inspector all quantities and work for which payment is being applied for and reach agreement prior to submittal of an Official Pay Request. The Engineer or the Construction Inspector will verify that the on -site marked up as -built drawings are up to date with the work and are in compliance with the Contract Documents, In addition to all other payment provisions set out in this contract, the Owner's Representative may require the Contractor to produce for Owner, within fifteen (15) days of the approval of any progress payment, evidence and/or payment affidavit that all subcontractors and suppliers have SECTION III Page 35 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 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 the 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 the 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 the 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 the Owner may, after having served written notice on said Contractor either pay unpaid bills, of which the Owner has written notice, or 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 the Owner to the Contractor or the Surety. In paying any unpaid bills of the Contractor, the Owner shall be deemed the agent of Contractor and any payment so made by the Owner shall be considered as payment made under the Contract by the Owner to Contractor, and the Owner shall not be liable to Contractor for any such payment made in good faith. 14.3. REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS FOR PROGRESS PAYMENTS The Owner's Representative will within twenty (20) business days after receipt authorize and process payment by the Owner a properly submitted and documented Application for payment, unless the application requires review by an Agent. If the Application for payment requires review and approval by an Agent, properly submitted and documented Applications for payment will be paid by the Owner within twenty -five (25) business days. If an Application for payment is rejected, notice shall be given within twenty (20) business days of receipt indicating the reasons for refusing payment. The reasons for rejecting an Application will be submitted in writing, specifying deficiencies and identifying actions that would make the Application proper. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. The Owner's Representative or Agent may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment to Owner. Owner's Representative or Agent 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 Owner Representative's or Agent's opinion to protect the 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) the Owner has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work, or (iv) Owner's SECTION III Page 36 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 • • • SECTION III — General Conditions Representative or Agent has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in the article on Suspension of Work and Termination. The Owner may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by the Owner's Representative or Agent because: (i) claims have been made against the 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 the Owner to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens, (iii) there are other items entitling the Owner to a set -off against the amount recommended, or (iv) the Owner has actual knowledge of any of the events described in this paragraph. The Owner shall give Contractor notice of refusal to pay in accordance with the time constraints of this section with a copy to the Owner's Representative or Agent, stating the reasons for such actions, and Owner shall promptly pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to by the Owner and Contractor, when Contractor corrects to the Owner's satisfaction the reasons for such action. 14.4. PARTIAL UTILIZATION Use by the Owner at the Owner's option of any substantially completed part of the Work which (i) has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or (ii) Owner, Engineer, Owner's Representative, and Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by the 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: The Owner at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit the Owner to use any such part of the Work which the 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, Owner's Representative, and Engineer that such part of the Work is substantially complete and request Owner's Representative to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Contractor at any time may notify Owner, Owner's Representative, and Engineer in writing that Contractor considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and request Owner's Representative to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request, Owner, Contractor, Owner's Representative, 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, Owner's Representative, and Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefore. 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, Owner's Representative will make a final inspection with Engineer, Owner and Contractor and will within thirty (30) days notify Contractor in writing of particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. The Owner's Representative will produce a final punch list, deliver it to the Contractor within five (5) days of completion and assign a date for this work to be completed not less than thirty (30) days from delivery of the list. SECTION III Page 37 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions Failure to include any corrective work or pending items does not alter the responsibility of the contractor to complete all the construction services purchased pursuant to the contract. 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 Owner's Representative and has delivered in accordance with the Contract Documents all maintenance and operating instructions, As- built/Record Drawings, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance required by the paragraph for Bonds and Insurance, certificates of inspection, Inspector overtime reimbursement as 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, and (ii) executed consent of the surety to final payment using the form contained in Section V of the Contract Documents. 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 Owner's Representative so confirms, the Owner shall, upon receipt of Contractor's final Application for payment and recommendation of Owner's Representative, 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 the 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 Owner's Representative 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 Owner Representative's observation of the Work during construction and final inspection, and Owner Representative's review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying documentation, all as required by the Contract Documents, Owner's Representative is satisfied that the Work has been completed and Contractor's other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled, Owner's Representative will indicate in writing his recommendation of payment and present the Application to Owner for payment. Thereupon, Owner's Representative will give written notice to Owner and Contractor that the Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of this article. Otherwise, Owner's Representative 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 SECTION III Page 38 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 • SECTION III — General Conditions to form and substance, the Owner shall, within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof pay contractor the amount recommended by Owner's Representative. 14.8. WAIVER OF CLAIMS The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute: a waiver of all claims by the 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 the 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, Owner's Representative may suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more than ninety (90) 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 therefore as provided in the articles for Change of Contract Price and Change of Contract Time. • 15.2. OWNER MAY TERMINATE Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the 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 Owner's Representative; 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 the Owner, or if the Contract or any claim thereunder is assigned by Contractor otherwise than as herein specified, or at any time Owner's Representative certifies in writing to the 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. The 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 the Owner has paid Contractor but which are stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as the 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 SECTION III Page 39 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions damages sustained by the 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 the Owner. Such claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by the Owner will be reviewed by Owner's Representative as to their reasonableness and when so approved by Owner's Representative incorporated in a Change Order, provided that when exercising any rights or remedies under this paragraph the Owner shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by the Owner, the termination will not affect any rights or remedies of the Owner against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by the Owner will not release Contractor from liability. Upon seven (7) days' written notice to Contractor and Owner's Representative, the Owner may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the 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 (90) days by the Owner or under an order of court or other public authority, or the Owner's Representative fails to act on any Application for Payment within thirty (30) days after it is submitted or the Owner fails for thirty (30) days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be due, then Contractor may, upon seven (7) days' written notice to the Owner and Owner's Representative, and provided the Owner or Owner's Representative does not remedy such suspension or failure within that time, terminate the Agreement and recover from the Owner payment on the same terms as provided in the article for the Owner May Terminate. However, if the Work is suspended under an order of court through no fault of 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 Owner's Representative has failed to act on an Application for Payment within thirty (30) days after it is submitted, or the Owner has failed for thirty (30) days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be due, Contractor may upon seven (7) days' written notice to the Owner and Owner's Representative stop the Work until payment of all such amounts due Contractor. The provisions of this article are not intended to preclude Contractor from making claim under paragraphs for Change of Contract SECTION III Page 40 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 • • • • SECTION III — General Conditions Price or Change of Contract Time or otherwise for expenses or damage directly attributable to Contractor's stopping Work as permitted by this article. 16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION If and to the extent that the Owner and Contractor have agreed on the method and procedure for resolving disputes between them that may arise under this Agreement, such dispute resolution method and procedure will proceed. If no such agreement on the method and procedure for resolving such disputes has been reached, subject to the provisions of the article for Decisions on Disputes, the Owner and Contractor may exercise such rights or remedies as either may otherwise have under the Contract Documents or by Laws or Regulations in respect of any dispute provided, however, that nothing herein shall require a dispute to be submitted to binding arbitration. 17. MISCELLANEOUS 17.1. SUBMITTAL AND DOCUMENT FORMS The form of all submittals, notices, change orders, pay applications, logs, schedules and other documents permitted or required to be used or transmitted under the Contract Documents shall be determined by the Owner's Representative subject to the approval of Owner. 17.2. GIVING NOTICE Whenever any provision of the Contract Documents requires the giving of written notice, notice will be deemed to have been validly given if delivered in person to the individual or to a member of the firm or to an officer of the corporation for whom it is intended, or if delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the last business address known to the giver of the notice. 17.3. NOTICE OF CLAIM Should the Owner or Contractor suffer injury or damage to person or property because of any error, omission or any act of the other party or of any of the other party's officers, employees or agents or others for whose acts the other party is legally liable, claim will be made in writing to the other party within a reasonable time of the first observance of such injury or damage. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed as a substitute for or a waiver of the provisions of any applicable statute of limitations or repose. 17.4. PROFESSIONAL FEES AND COURT COSTS INCLUDED Whenever reference is made to "claims, costs, losses and damages," the phrase shall include in each case, but not be limited to, all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals and all court or other dispute resolution costs. 17.5. ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT The Contractor shall not assign this contract or any part thereof or any rights thereunder without the approval of Owner, nor without the consent of surety unless the surety has waived its rights to notice of assignment. SECTION III Page 41 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions 17.6. RENEWAL OPTION Annual Contracts issued through the Engineering Department may be renewed for up to two (2) years, upon mutual consent of both the Owner and the Contractor/Vendor. All terms, conditions and unit prices shall remain constant unless otherwise specified in the contract specifications or in the Invitation to bid. Renewals shall be made at the sole discretion of the Owner, and must be agreed to in writing by both parties. All renewals are contingent upon the availability of funds, and the satisfactory performance of the Contractor as determined by the Construction Department. 17.7. ROLL -OFF CONTAINERS AND /OR DUMPSTERS All City construction projects shall utilize City of Clearwater Solid Waste roll -off containers and /or dumpsters for their disposal and hauling needs. For availability or pricing contact Mike Pryor at the City of Clearwater, Solid Waste Department, by phone: (727) 562 -4923 or email: Michael.Pryor@myClearwater.com. 18. ORDER AND LOCATION OF THE WORK The City reserves the right to accept and use any portion of the work whenever it is considered to the public interest to do so. The Engineer shall have the power to direct on what line or street the Contractor shall work and order thereof. 19. MATERIAL USED All material incorporated into the final work shall be new material unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. If requested by the Engineer, the Contractor shall furnish purchase receipts of all materials. 20. CONFLICT BETWEEN PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS The various Contract Documents shall be given precedence, in case of conflict, error or discrepancy, as follows: Modifications, Contract Agreement, Addenda, Supplementary General Conditions, General Conditions, Supplementary Technical Specifications and Technical Specifications. In a series of Modifications or Addenda the latest will govern. In the case of an inconsistency between Drawings and Specifications or within either Document not clarified by addendum, the better quality, more stringent or greater quantity of Work shall be provided in accordance with the Engineer /Architect's interpretation. 21. OWNER DIRECT PURCHASE (ODP) 21.1. SALES TAX SAVINGS The Owner reserves the right to purchase certain portions of the materials or equipment for the Project directly in order to save applicable sales tax in compliance with Florida Law since owner is exempt from the payment of sales tax. The contract price includes Florida sales and other applicable taxes for materials, supplies, and equipment which will be a part of the Contractor's Work. Owner - purchasing of construction materials or equipment, if selected, will be administered on a deductive Change Order basis. The contract price shall be reduced by the actual cost of the materials or equipment purchased by owner plus the normally applicable sales SECTION III Page 42 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 • • • • SECTION III — General Conditions tax, even if the actual cost is in excess of the cost for the materials or equipment as -bid by the Contractor. For purposes of calculating engineering fees, contractor fees, architects fees, and any other amounts that are based on the contract amount, however, the original, as -bid contract amount shall be used. Direct purchase shall be considered for single items or materials that exceed $10,000 in value and/or items identified in Section V, Bidders Proposal. The Contractor shall provide the Owner an ODP Summary of all intended suppliers, vendors, equipment and materials for consideration as ODP materials or equipment (refer to ODP Instructions in Contract Appendix). 21.2. TITLE AND OWNER RISK Owner will issue Purchase Orders and provide a copy of Owner's Florida Consumer Certification of Tax Exemption and Certificate of Entitlement directly to the Vendor for ODP materials or equipment. Invoices for ODP materials or equipment shall be issued to the Owner, and a copy sent to the Contractor. Notwithstanding the transfer of ODP materials or equipment by the Owner to the Contractor's possession, the Owner shall retain legal and equitable title to any and all ODP materials or equipment; therefore, the owner assumes the risk of damage or loss at the time of purchase or delivery of items, unless material is damaged as the result of negligence by the Contractor. 21.3. CONTRACTOR'S RECEIPT OF MATERIALS The Contractor shall be fully responsible for all matters relating to the receipt of materials or equipment furnished to the Owner including, but not limited to, verifying correct quantities, verifying documents of orders in a timely manner, coordinating purchases, providing and obtaining all warranties and guarantees required by the Contract Documents, and inspection and acceptance of the goods at the time of delivery. The Owner shall coordinate with Contractor and Vendor delivery schedules, sequence of delivery, loading orientation, and other arrangements normally required by the Contractor for the particular materials or equipment furnished. The Contractor shall provide all services required for the unloading and handling of materials or equipment. The Contractor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Owner from any and all claims of whatever nature resulting from non - payment of goods to suppliers arising from the action of the Contractor. As ODP materials or equipment are delivered to the job site, the Contractor shall visually inspect all shipments from the suppliers, and approve the vendor's invoice for items delivered. The Contractor shall assure that each delivery of ODP materials or equipment is accompanied by documentation adequate to identify the Purchase Order against which the purchase is made. This documentation may consist of a delivery ticket and/or an invoice from the supplier conforming to the Purchase Order together with such additional information as the Owner may require. The Contractor will then forward an electronic copy of the invoice and supporting documentation to the Owner for payment within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of said goods or materials. Such payment shall be directly from public funds, from Owner to Vendor. The Contractor shall insure that ODP materials or equipment conform to the Specifications and determine prior to acceptance of goods at time of delivery if such materials or equipment are patently defective, and whether such materials or equipment are identical to the materials or equipment ordered and match the description on the bill of lading. If the Contractor discovers defective or non - conformities in ODP materials or equipment upon such visual inspection, the SECTION III Page 43 of 50 Updated 6/3/2016 SECTION III — General Conditions Contractor shall not utilize such nonconforming or defective materials or equipment in the Contractor's Work and instead shall properly notify the Owner of the defective or nonconforming condition so that repair or replacement of those materials or equipment can occur without undue delay or interruption to the Project. If the Contractor fails to perform such inspection and otherwise incorporates into the Contractor's Work such defective or nonconforming ODP materials or equipment, the condition of which it either knew or should have known by performance of an inspection, Contractor shall be responsible for all damages to the Owner, resulting from Contractor's incorporation of such materials or equipment into the Project, including liquidated damages. 21.4. ODP RECORDS, WARRANTIES AND INDEMNIFICATION The Contractor shall maintain records of all ODP materials or equipment it incorporates into Contractor's Work from the stock of ODP materials or equipment in its possession. The Contractor shall account monthly to the Owner for any ODP materials or equipment delivered into the Contractor's possession, indicating portions of all such materials or equipment which have been incorporated in the Contractor's Work. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining and managing all warranties and guarantees for all materials, equipment and products as required by the Contract Documents. All repair, maintenance, or damage- repair calls shall be forwarded to the Contractor for resolution with the appropriate supplier, vendor, or subcontractor. The Owner shall indemnify and hold Contractor harmless from any sales tax (and interest and penalties incurred in connection therewith) in the event there is a final determination that purchases made by Owner, which Owner treats as being exempt from sales tax, are subject to sales tax. "Final determination" shall mean an assessment by the Department of Revenue that is no longer subject to protest, or a determination of a court having jurisdiction over such matters that is final and not subject to appeal. Contractor agrees to promptly notify owner of any audit, assessment, proposed assessment or notice of deficiency issued with regard to the Project and relating to ODP materials or equipment. ODP Purchase Orders must be closed out prior to closing out the contract/Contractor Purchase Order.

EXCAVATION FOR UNDERGROUND WORK The Contractor is responsible to take all necessary steps to conduct all excavation in a manner which provides for the successful completion of the proposed work while at all times maintaining the safety of the workmen, the general public and both public and private property. The Contractor's methods of work will be consistent with the standard practices and requirements of all appropriate Safety Regulatory Agencies, particularly the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements for excavation. Unless otherwise specifically stated in these plans and specifications, the methods of safety control and compliance with regulatory agency safety requirements are the full and complete responsibility of the Contractor. For the purposes of the Contractor's safety planning in the bidding process, the contractor is to consider all excavation to be done in the performance of this contract to be in soil classified as OSHA "Type C ". The Contractor's attention is called to specific requirements of OSHA for excavation shoring, employee entry, location of excavated material adjacent to excavation, the removal of water from the excavation, surface encumbrances and in particular the requirement of a "Competent Person" to control safety operations. The Contractor will identify their Competent Person to City staff at the start of construction. City staff is required from time to time to perform inspections, tests, survey location work, or other similar activity in an excavation prepared by the Contractor. City staff, in conformance with the OSHA Excavation Safety Requirements, is to only enter an excavation in compliance with these OSHA standards. The City's staff reserve the option to refuse entry into the Contractor's excavation if, in the opinion of the City's staff, the entry into the Contractor's excavation is unsafe or does not conform to OSHA requirements. If this circumstance occurs, the Contractor must either provide the necessary safety requirements or provide alternate means for the accomplishment of the City's work at the Contractor's expense. The construction quantities, if any, contained in the bid proposal for this contract do not contain sufficient quantities to allow the Contractor to perform excavation work using strictly the "open cut" method whereby no shoring systems are used and trench side slopes are cut to conform to OSHA safety requirements without a shoring system. In addition to safety reasons, the Contractor is required to use excavation and trench - shoring methods in compliance with all safety requirements which allow the Contractor to control the amount of restoration work necessary to complete the project. Not more than four hundred feet (400') of trench shall be opened at one time in advance of the completed work unless written permission is received from the Engineer for the distance specified. For pipe installation projects, the trench shall be a minimum of six inches (6 ") wider on each side than the greatest external horizontal width of the pipe or conduit, including hubs, intended to be laid in them. The bottom of the trench under each pipe joint shall be slightly hollowed, to allow the body of the pipe to rest throughout its length. In case a trench is excavated at any place, excepting at joints, below the grade of its bottom as given, or directed by the Engineer, the filling and compaction to grade shall be done in such manner as the Engineer shall direct, without compensation.

Where new cast -in -place concrete work is performed, do not place backfill until the specified twenty -eight (28) days compressive strength occurs. Do not allow heavy construction equipment to cross over pipes or culverts until placing and compacting backfill material to the finished earthwork grade or to an elevation of at least four feet (4') above the top of the pipe or culvert. The cost of backfill, flowable fill, alternative approved material for wet conditions, and extra dewatering effort to achieve required density, etc., shall be included in the contract unit price or lump sum price for the item of the work specified. 304 -2. TESTING AND INSPECTION • Contractor shall employ and pay for the services of an independent testing laboratory, approved by the Owner, to perform density testing on backfilled material. All testing shall be witnessed by SECTION IV Page 19 of 106 Updated 2/11/2016 SECTION IV — Technical Specifications the Owner's Representative. The test shall be repeated until satisfactory results are obtained. The Contractor shall be charged for all retests and re- inspection services. Backfill under all type of impervious areas and around structures: Backfill in these areas shall be compacted to a minimum of 98% Modified Proctor Test in accordance with ASTM D 1557 or ASSHTO T 180. Tests shall be performed up to the proposed bottom of pavement elevation. Backfill outside of impervious areas: Backfill in these areas shall be compacted to a minimum of 95% Standard Proctor Test in accordance with ASTM D -698 or AASHTO T-99. Tests shall be performed up to the proposed finished grade. Backfill Testing: The Contractor shall demonstrate the adequacy of backfill compaction by performing density testing. For each test location, density testing shall be performed at eight inch (8 ") lifts. The character of the backfill material will be observed during the excavation for density testing to determine conformance with the specifications. Density testing shall be performed using nuclear field density equipment or conventional weight - volume methods. If the weight - volume method is used, volume shall be determined by using the sand replacement test (ASTM D 1556) or liquid displacement methods (ASTM D 2167). If nuclear methods are used, the trench correction effect shall be accounted for by recalibrating the nuclear gauge on its calibration block at the location of each test prior to taking the density measurement. The Contractor shall furnish all equipment, tools, and labor to prepare the test site for testing. Normal Testing Frequency: One test shall be performed for each one hundred feet (100') of backfill or fraction thereof or for each single run of pipe /culvert connecting two (2) successive structures whichever is less. The location of the test within each section shall be selected by the Owner's Representative. Testing shall progress as each one hundred foot (100') section is completed. Four (4) tests equally spaced around each structure shall be performed on each eight inch (8 ") lift. Testing which indicates that unacceptable material has been incorporated into the backfill, or that insufficient compaction is being obtained shall be followed by expanded testing to determine the limits of the unacceptable backfill. Expanded Testing Requirements: If normal testing within a testing section indicates unacceptable backfill, the Owner's Representative may require additional testing within the same test section to determine the limits of unacceptable backfill. Additional testing required by the Owner's Representative shall be paid for by the Contractor and shall not exceed testing of four (4) additional locations within the test section. Unacceptable backfill within the limits established by the testing shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Owner. Additional testing beyond that required may be performed by the Contractor at his expense to further delineate limits of unacceptable backfill. 305.

Root pruning shall be limited to a minimum of ten inches (10 ") per one inch (1 ") of the trunk diameter from the tree base. Any exception must be approved by the City's representative prior to said root pruning. G. Roots shall be cut cleanly, as far from the trunk of the tree as possible. Root pruning shall be done to a minimum depth of eighteen inches (18 ") from existing grade, or to the depth of the disturbance if less than eighteen inches (18 "). H. Root pruning shall be performed using a root cutting machine specifically designed for this purpose. Alternate equipment or techniques must be approved by the City's representative, prior to any work adjacent to trees to be preserved. I. Root pruning shall be completed, inspected and accepted prior to the commencement of any excavation or other impacts to the critical root zones of trees to be protected. J. Excavations in an area where root are present shall not cause the tearing or ripping of tree roots. Roots must first be cleanly severed prior to continuing with the excavation, or tunneled around to prevent damage to the root. • K. Tree roots shall not be exposed to drying out. Root ends shall be covered with native soil or burlap and kept moist until final backfill or final grades has been established. L. When deemed appropriate (e.g., during periods of drought) the City representative may require a temporary irrigation system be utilized in the remaining critical root zones of root pruned trees. M. When underground utility lines are to be installed within the critical root zone, the root pruning requirement may be waived if the lines are installed via tunneling or directional boring as opposed to open trenching. 910 -3.

INTRODUCTION: 1. Flowable fill refers to a cementitious slurry consisting of a mixture of fine aggregate or filler, water, and cementitious material(s), which is used as a fill or backfill in lieu of compacted earth. This mixture is capable of filling all voids in irregular excavations and hard to reach places (such as under undercuts of existing slabs), is self - leveling, and hardens in a matter of a few hours without the need for compaction in layers. Flowable fill is sometimes referred to as Controlled Density Fill (CDF), Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), Lean Concrete Slurry, and Unshrinkable Fill. 2 . Flowable fill materials will be used as void fill in pipes and structures labeled Abandon in Place or Abandon. B. DESCRIPTION: 1. Furnish and place flowable fill in a fluid condition that sets within the required time and, after curing obtains the desired strength properties as evidenced by the laboratory testing of the specific mix design, at locations shown on the plans or as directed by the Engineer, verbally or in writing. This section specifies flowable fill for use as structural fill to remain excavatable using hand tools. 1.2 RELATED WORK: A. MATERIALS TESTING AND INSPECTION DURING CONSTRUCTION. B. EARTHWORK, EXCAVATION AND BACKFILL AND COMPACTION REQUIREMENTS. 1.3 DEFINITIONS: Flowable Fill - ready -mix controlled low strength material used as in closures for tanks and pipes, and is also known as controlled density fill, and several other names, some of which are trademark names of material suppliers. Flowable fill (controlled low strength material) differs from portland cement concrete as it contains a low cementitious content to reduce strength development for possible future removal. Unless specifically approved otherwise, by the Engineer, flowable fill shall be designed as a permanent material, not designed for future removal. Design strength for this permanent type flowable fill shall have a minimum compressive strength set forth in Table 1.3 Flowable Fill. Chemical admixtures may also be used in flowable fill to modify performance properties of strength, flow, set, acidity /alkalinity, corrosion resistance, and permeability.

Valves shall not be operated in either direction at a differential pressure exceeding the rated valve working pressure. For tests exceeding the rated valve working pressure, the test setup should include a provision, independent of the valve, to reduce the line pressure to the rated valve working pressure on completion of the test. The valve can then be opened enough to equalize the trapped pressure with the line pressure, or the valve can be fully opened if desired. F. The test pressure shall not exceed the rated working pressure or differential pressure of the valves when the pressure boundary of the test section includes closed, resilient - seated gate valves or butterfly valves. G. Contractor shall attach a tapping sleeve and valve assembly to the main, and pressure test the assembly prior to making the tap. The required test pressure shall be determined in the same manner as for pipe. The test is acceptable if there is no pressure drop in 15 minutes at test pressure. 3.2 FILLING AND TESTING A. Slowly fill each segregated section of pipeline with water ensuring that all air is expelled. Extreme care must be taken to ensure that all air is expelled during the filling of pipe. The line shall stand full of water for at least twenty -four hours prior to testing to allow all air to escape. If necessary, tap the main at points of highest elevation to expel air as the pipe is filled. Remove the corporation stops and plug the taps after successfully filling the pipeline and expelling all air. B. The test will be conducted for at least two (2) hours at the required test pressure ± 5 psi. C. Conduct a leakage test concurrently with the pressure test. Measure the volume of water using a calibrated container or meter. Interflow Engineering, L.L.C.

We provided our services in general accordance with our Proposal No. 01.3032.15, dated July 13, 2015. The purpose of the exploration was to evaluate subsurface conditions for the proposed construction and to provide geotechnical engineering recommendations regarding site preparation, earthwork procedures and foundation recommendations at the locations of the proposed baffle boxes. This report presents a brief discussion of our understanding of the project, the exploration procedures and results, and our conclusions and recommendations regarding the above considerations. 1.2 REPORT SUMMARY Five (5) Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings were performed to evaluate the subsurface soils and groundwater conditions with respect to the proposed construction. The following is an overview of the exploration findings and our geotechnical recommendations. This summary should not be used for planning and design without reading the entire report, which contains more detailed information and the assumptions made in developing the recommendations. 1. Groundwater was encountered in the SPT borings at depths ranging from approximately 5 to 7.5 feet below existing grade during the field testing. Based on the Soil Survey of Pinellas County, Florida, prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), the historic SHGWT is approximately 0.5 to 1.5 feet below natural ground surface. 2. The five (5) proposed baffle box structures can be supported by properly prepared subgrade and compacted fill materials. Associated structure foundations should be designed for a maximum soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf after proper subgrade preparation. Based on the loading and the site preparation recommendations contained in this report the total settlement should be less than 1/2 inch with differential settlement less than 1/4 of an inch. 3. The preferred soil used for structural fill is fine sand free of organics and debris and containing Tess than 12 percent material by weight that is finer than a number 200 sieve (fines) (materials conforming to SP and SP -SM in the Unified Soil Classification System [USCS] and materials conforming to A -3 in the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Soil Classification System [AASHTO]. SP and SP -SM (A -3) sand is generally present from the existing ground surface to approximately 10 feet and may be used as a source of structural fill. Pipe backfill may consist of material of higher 1 • Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements - Clearwater, Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 fines content than structural fill as discussed below, the pipe backfill may include the Silty SAND (SM) (A -2 -4) material as encountered within the upper 6 feet in boring B -3. Additionally, higher fine content material such as SM /A -2-4 material may be mixed with cleaner SP /A -3 material to meet the specifications for structural fill. 4. Based on a review of the provided plans, it appears the baffle boxes will bear on soils ranging from approximately 10 to 13.5 feet below existing grade. 2.0 PROJECT INFORMATION 2.1 EXISTING SITE The subject property proposed for construction is located north of Court Street (State Road 60) and south of Court Street within close proximity of Stephenson Creek in Clearwater, Pinellas County, Florida. The site is generally flat and level and of similar elevation as surrounding sites. 2.2 PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION We understand that five (5) proposed baffle box structures are proposed at the locations shown on the Field Test Location Plan, Sheet 1 of the Appendix. Based on a review of the provided plans, we understand that the baffle boxes will bear approximately 10 to 13.5 feet below grade. Structural loading has not been provided at the time of this proposal. However, as we understand it, based on the provided drawings, the baffle boxes will be of precast construction with 8 inch thick walls, top and base. 3.0 SITE INFORMATION 3.1 SOIL SURVEY INFORMATION According to the Soil Survey of Pinellas County, Florida, prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS, formerly the Soil Conservation Service), the subject property is primarily underlain by two soil types: Matlacha and St. Augustine soils and Urban land (Unit 16), and Myakka soils and Urban land (Unit 17).

The SPT borings were performed and split - barrel soil samples obtained at intervals of 2 feet to a depth of 10 feet and intervals of 5 feet thereafter. A hand auger was utilized in the upper 4 feet of SPT boring B -3 to avoid possible utility conflicts. Conventional rotary drilling procedures were utilized along with a bentonite drilling fluid to stabilize the boreholes. The following is a brief description of this field test procedure. The exploratory borings were performed in accordance with ASTM D 1586, entitled "Standard Method for Penetration Test and Split - Barrel Sampling of Soils." After drilling to the required depth and cleaning the bore hole, the sampler (2" O.D.) was driven 18 or 24 inches into the undisturbed soil by a 140 -pound drop- hammer falling 30 inches. The number of blows required to drive the sampler the second and third 6 -inch increments is known as the Standard Penetration Resistance (N). The various soils encountered in the borings were visually classified in the field and representative soil samples obtained for further examination by a geotechnical engineer. The soils encountered in the borings were classified utilizing the USCS. At the completion of the drilling operations, the boreholes were abandoned in accordance with Southwest Florida Water Management District guidelines. The observed procedures used for field sampling and testing were performed in general accordance with ASTM procedures and established engineering practice. 4.1 FIELD EXPLORATION AND TESTING Five (5) SPT borings were advanced to approximate depths 20 feet below the existing ground surface.

Boring B -3 encountered SHELL fragments to approximately 2 feet, underlain by SAND to SAND With Silt (SP /SP -SM) [A- 3/A -2-4] to approximately 4 feet; underlain by very loose Silty SAND (SM) [A -2 -4] to approximately 6 feet; underlain by medium dense to dense SAND With Silt (SP /SP -SM) [A- 3/A -2-4] to approximately 15 feet; underlain by stiff CLAY to Sandy CLAY (CUCH) [A- 6 /A -7] to the boring termination depth of approximately 20 feet. Loss of drilling fluid circulation was not encountered to the boring termination depths. The above discussion provides only a brief and general description of subsurface conditions encountered in the borings. Detailed descriptions are presented on the attached soil profile. When reviewing the soil profile, the indicated boundaries between soil strata are approximate and the transitions between strata are typically more gradual. Also, variations in subsurface conditions from those encountered may exist between the boring locations. • 5.2 GROUNDWATER The groundwater level was encountered in the SPT borings at approximate depths ranging from 5 to 7.5 feet at the time of field exploration. Groundwater levels fluctuate with time due to seasonal moisture changes, and locally heavy precipitation events. Therefore, future ground water levels may be encountered at depths different from those identified in our borings. 6.0 CONCLUSIONS We base the following conclusions in part on the preceding project information and the results of the subsurface exploration. The following describes our conclusions concerning geotechnical issues associated with the project: The proposed baffle box structures can be supported by properly prepared subgrade and compacted fill materials. Associated structure foundations should be designed for a maximum soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf after proper subgrade preparation. Based on the loading and the site preparation recommendations contained in this report the total settlement should be less than 1/2 inch with differential settlement less than 1/4 of an inch. Groundwater was encountered in our borings at depths ranging from approximately 5 to 7.5 feet. Based on the Soil Survey of Pinellas County, Florida, prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), the historic SHGWT is approximately 0.5 to 1.5 feet below natural ground surface. • Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 The preferred soil used for structural fill is fine sand free of organics and debris and containing less than 12 percent material by weight that is finer than a number 200 sieve (fines) (materials conforming to SP and SP -SM in the USCS). SP and SP -SM sand is present from the existing ground surface to approximately 10 feet and may be used as a source of structural fill. Pipe backfill may consist of material of higher fines content than structural fill as discussed below, the pipe backfill may include the Silty SAND (SM) [A -2 -4] material as encountered within the upper 6 feet in boring B -3. Additionally, higher fine content material such as SM /A -2 -4 material may be mixed with cleaner SP /A -3 material to meet the specifications for structural fill. All fill must be approved by the Engineer prior to use. 7.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 7.1 SITE PREPARATION 7.1.1 Site Stripping To prepare the site for construction, all existing construction debris including asphalt or concrete sidewalks, vegetation and large root systems should be removed. All existing utilities (including septic tanks and lines, if any) should be abandoned properly. After stripping, any pockets of organic debris /deleterious materials should be undercut. Clean sand may be stockpiled for reuse and deleterious material, where encountered, may be used in the green space on site, with approval of the geotechnical engineer. Deleterious materials could be present intermediate of our borings. Such deleterious material should be removed to the satisfaction of Anticus as the site is prepared and /or as the excavations expose them, and therefore, we recommend setting aside a contingency fund to cover the removal and replacement of deleterious materials. Any cavities formed should be replaced with compacted structural fill. At a minimum, it is recommended that the stripped operations extend at least two (2) feet beyond the proposed pipe alignment and at least five (5) feet beyond the proposed baffle box perimeters, where possible. 7.1.2 Subgrade Preparation and Fill Placement Following the stripping operations, including the removal of construction remnants, the exposed subgrade should be evaluated and proofrolled as directed by representatives of Anticus to evaluate the subgrade soils for any weak or yielding subgrade areas. If soft pockets are encountered in the pipe, baffle box or footing excavations, the unsuitable materials should be removed and the proposed footing elevation may be re- established by backfilling after the undesirable material has been removed. This backfilling may be done with a very lean concrete or with a well- compacted, suitable fill such as clean sand, gravel, or crushed FDOT No. 57 or FDOT No. 67 stone. Sand backfill should be compacted to a minimum density of 95 percent of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D1557). The excavations may encounter clayey material (CL /CH) [A- 6/A -7]; this material should be overexcavated and replaced with cleaner material and /or mixed with gravel /stone to meet the compaction requirements noted above. Approved sand fill should be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 12 inches in thickness and should be compacted to a minimum density of 95 percent of the modified Proctor maximum dry 5 • • Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 density. Density tests to confirm compaction should be performed in each fill lift before the next lift is placed. Prior to beginning compaction, soil moisture contents may need to be controlled in order to facilitate proper compaction. If additional moisture is necessary to achieve compaction objectives, then water should be applied in such a way that it will not cause erosion or removal of the subgrade soils. Moisture content within the percentage range needed to achieve compaction is recommended prior to compaction of the natural ground and fill. After compaction and proofrolling, the pipe, baffle box and any foundation excavations can begin. Excavations should be observed by the geotechnical engineer or a representative to explore the extent of any loose, soft, or otherwise undesirable materials. If the excavations appear suitable as load bearing materials, the bottom of the excavations should be compacted to a minimum density of 95 percent of the modified Proctor maximum dry density for a minimum depth of one (1) foot below the bottom of the pipe, baffle box or footing depth, as determined by field density compaction tests. 7.2 STRUCTURAL FILL 7.2.1 Structural Fill Definition The preferred soil used for structural fill is fine sand free of organics and debris and containing less than 12 percent material by weight that is finer than a number 200 sieve (fines) (materials conforming to SP and SP -SM in the USCS and A- 3/A -2-4 in AASHTO). All fill should be approved by the Engineer before placement. 7.2.2 Structural Fill Availability SP and SP -SM (A- 3/A -2 -4) sand are present from the existing ground surface to depths of approximately 10 feet and may be used as a source of structural fill. Material from strata 2, 3 or 4 (CL/CH) [A- 6/A -7] .or (SM) [A -2-4] may be used for backfill above the structure in green spaces as specified in the Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction (SSRBC) as specified below, however this material should not be used as structural fill for any associated structure foundations. These materials may be difficult to dry and compact and achieve density requirements and are therefore not recommended as backfill material. 7.2.3 Structural Fill Placement and Compaction Structural fill with less than 12 percent fines should be placed in lifts not to exceed one foot thick. The fill material should be compacted to at least 95 percent of its modified Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D- 1557). We recommend the upper 1 -foot below the baffle box bottom elevation and any associated structure slab be compacted to at least 95 percent of modified Proctor maximum dry density. Density tests should be performed in each fill lift to confirm compaction before the next lift is placed. Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements - Clearwater, Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 7.3 SITE DEGRADATION DURING CONSTRUCTION It has been our experience that prior to construction, subgrade soils can be significantly disrupted by construction equipment, utility construction, and inclement weather. The soils exposed at the subgrade will consist primarily of sands. These materials are particularly susceptible to disturbance. Placement of the baffle box structures upon these areas must occur promptly, or these areas will need re- compaction and re- testing. 7.4 FOUNDATIONS AND BAFFLE BOX SUPPORT Based on the information revealed by our exploration, the baffle box structures can be supported by properly prepared subgrade and compacted fill materials. Associated structure foundations bearing on densified residual soil may be supported using a maximum allowable net soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf supported by properly prepared and compacted fill materials. Total settlement is anticipated to be Tess than '/z inch with differential settlement less than % inch. All baffle boxes and associated foundations should bear on compacted sandy soils or properly placed and compacted cohesionless (sand) structural fill to a minimum density of 95 percent of the modified Proctor dry density to a depth of one (1) foot below the foundation or baffle box bottom elevation. As an alternative, the baffle box and foundation excavations can be over - excavated to a depth of one (1) foot below the proposed bottom of baffle box elevation and /or foundation and slab elevations and backfilled with crushed stone (FDOT No. 57 or No. 67 stone). The crushed stone should be seated to provide a relatively firm and unyielding surface. Foundation excavation will produce a thin veneer of disturbed soil at the foundation subgrade. Hand guided vibrating plates can be used. The compaction should be performed and checked prior to placement of the baffle box. Perform all excavation to foundation materials, satisfactory to Anticus, regardless of the elevation shown in the Plans. Remove rock, boulders or other hard lumpy or unyielding material to a depth of 12 inches below the bottom of pipes and baffle box elevations. Remove muck or other soft material to the depth determined satisfactory by an Anticus representative. Take special care to avoid disturbing the bottom of the excavation, and do not remove the final foundation material to grade until just before placing the masonry or baffle boxes. If the foundation material is soft or mucky, the Anticus representative may require excavation to a greater depth and to backfill to grade with approved material. For the baffle boxes and pipe alignment over which pavement is to be constructed, compact around the structure to an elevation not Tess than 12 inches above the top of the structure, using rapid- striking mechanical tampers. Compact in other limited areas using mechanical tampers or approved hand tampers, until the cover over the structure is at least 12 inches thick. When hand tampers are used, deposit the materials in layers not more than 4 inches thick using hand tampers suitable for this purpose with a face area of not more than 100 square inches. Take special precautions to prevent any wedging action against the masonry. 7 • Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida August 5, 2015 Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 7.5 PIPE TRENCHES Excavate trenches for pipes to the elevation of the bottom of the pipe and to a width sufficient to provide adequate working room. Remove soil not meeting the classification specified as suitable backfill material as specified in the current version of the SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.2.2 (as incorporated herein), to a depth of 4 inches below the bottom of the pipe elevation. Where the soils permit, ensure that the trench sides are vertical up to at least the mid -point of the pipe. 7.6 SSRBC EXERPTS Please refer to the current version of the SSRBC, which includes the following Sections: SSRBC Section 125 -8.1.4 Use of A -7 Material In the backfilling of trenches, A -7 material may be used from a point 12 inches above the top of the pipe up to the elevation shown in the Design Standards as the elevation for undercutting of A -7 material. SSRBC Section 125 -8.1.5 Time of Placinq Backfill Do not place backfill against any masonry or concrete abutment, wingwall, or culvert until the Engineer has given permission to do so, and in no case until the masonry or concrete has been in place seven days or until the specified 28 day compressive strength occurs. • SSRBC Section 125 -8.1.6 Placement and Compaction Place the material in horizontal layers not exceeding 6 inches compacted thickness, in depth above water level, behind abutments, wingwalls and end bents or end rest piers, under the haunches of the pipes and around box culverts and all structures including pipe culverts. When the backfill material is deposited in water, compact as specified in 125 -8.2.5 and 125 - 8.3.4. SSRBC Section 125 -8.2.5 Compaction Under Wet Conditions Where wet conditions do not permit the use of mechanical tampers, compact using hand tampers. Use only A -3 material for the hand tamped portions of the backfill. When the backfill has reached an elevation and condition such as to make the use of the mechanical tampers practical, perform mechanical tamping in such manner and to such extent as to transfer the compaction force into the sections previously tamped by hand. SSRBC Section 125 -8.3 Additional Requirements for Pipe 15 Inches Inside Diameter or Greater SSRBC Section 125 -8.3.1 General: Trenches for pipe may have up to four zones that must be backfilled. • Lowest Zone: The lowest zone is backfilled for deep undercuts up to within 4 inches of the bottom of the pipe. Bedding Zone: The zone above the lowest zone is the bedding zone. Usually it will be the backfill which is the 4 inches of soil below the bottom of the pipe. When rock or other hard material has been removed to place the pipe, the bedding zone will be the 12 inches of soil below the bottom of the pipe. Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 Cover Zone: The next zone is backfill that is placed after the pipe has been laid and will be called the cover zone. This zone extends to 12 inches above the top of the pipe. The cover zone and the bedding zone are considered the Soil Envelope for the pipe. Top Zone: The top zone extends from 12 inches above the top of the pipe to the base or final grade. SSRBC Section 125 -8.3.2 Material SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.2.1 Lowest Zone: Backfill areas undercut below the bedding zone of a pipe with coarse sand, or other suitable granular material, obtained from the grading operations on the project, or a commercial material if no suitable material is available. SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.2.2 Soil Envelope In both the bedding zone and the cover zone of the pipe, backfill with materials classified as A- 1, A -2, or A -3. Material classified as A -4 may be used if the pipe is concrete pipe. SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.2.3 Top Zone: Backfill the area of the trench above the soil envelope of the pipe with materials allowed on Design Standards, Index No. 505. SSRBC Section 125 -8.3.3 Compaction SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.3.1 Lowest Zone: Compact the soil in the lowest zone to approximately match the density of the soil in which the trench was cut. SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.3.2 Bedding Zone: If the trench was not undercut below the bottom of the pipe, loosen the soil in the bottom of the trench immediately below the approximate middle third of the outside diameter of the pipe. If the trench was undercut, place the bedding material and leave it in a loose condition below the middle third of the outside diameter of the pipe. Compact the outer portions to meet the density requirements of the acceptance criteria. Place the material in lifts no greater than 6 inches (compacted thickness). SSRBC Section 125 - 8.3.3.3 Cover Zone: Before placing the cover zone material, lay pipe according to Section 430. Excavate for pipe bells before laying pipe. Place the material in 6 inch layers (compacted thickness), evenly deposited on both sides of the pipe, and compact with mechanical tampers suitable for this purpose. Hand tamp material below the pipe haunch that cannot be reached by mechanical tampers. Meet the requirements of in SSRBC Section 125- 9.2. Place the material in layers not to exceed 12 inches in compacted thickness. Meet the requirements of the density acceptance criteria. SSRBC Section 125 -8.3.4 Backfill Under Wet Conditions Where wet conditions are such that dewatering by normal pumping methods would not be effective, the procedure outlined below may be used when specifically authorized by the Engineer in writing. Granular material below the elevation at which mechanical tampers would be effective may be used, but only material classified as A -3. Place and compact the material using timbers or hand tampers until the backfill reaches an elevation such that its moisture content will permit the use of mechanical tampers. When the backfill has reached such elevation, use normally acceptable backfill material. Compact the material using mechanical 9 • Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Protect No. 01.3032.15 tampers in such manner and to such extent as to transfer the compacting force into the material previously tamped by hand. Coarse aggregate below the elevation at which mechanical tampers would be effective may be used. Use coarse aggregate as specified in SSRBC Section 901 for Aggregate Size Number 89, 8, 78, 7, 68, 6, or 57. Place the coarse aggregate such that it will be stable and firm. Fully wrap the aggregate with a layer of Type D -4 filter fabric, as specified on Design Standards, Index No. 199. Do not place coarse aggregate within 4 feet of the ends of the trench or ditch. Use normally accepted backfill material at the ends. 7.7 GROUNDWATER CONTROL The groundwater levels presented in this report are the levels that were measured at the time of our field activities. Fluctuation should be anticipated. We recommend that the Contractor determine the actual groundwater levels at the time of the construction to determine groundwater impact on this construction procedure. Groundwater control may be necessary for the construction of the proposed structure foundations. Groundwater can normally be controlled in shallow excavations or rim ditches with a sump pump, with well - points being utilized for deeper excavations, if necessary. During subgrade soil preparation, any soils below design grade could become disturbed by construction activities. If this becomes the case, the contractor may be directed by the owner's representative to remove the disturbed or pumping • soils to a depth of 12 to 18 inches below design grade and backfill the area with structural fill. Water should not be allowed to collect in the foundation excavation, on the floor slab areas, or on prepared subgrades of the construction either during or after construction. Undercut or excavated areas should be sloped toward one corner to facilitate removal of any collected rainwater, groundwater, or surface runoff. Positive site drainage should be provided to reduce infiltration of surface water around the perimeter of the building and beneath the floor slabs. The grades should be sloped away from the building and surface drainage should be collected and discharged such that water is not permitted to infiltrate the backfill and floor slab areas of the building. 7.8 EXCAVATIONS For baffle box and pipe trenches utilizing trench boxes, ensure that the trench box used is of sufficient width to permit thorough tamping of bedding material under and around the pipes as specified in SSRBC Section 125 -8.1.6 (as incorporated herein). Do not disturb the installed baffle box and pipe and its embedment when moving trench boxes. Move the trench box carefully to avoid excavated wall displacement or damage. As the trench box is moved, fill any voids left by the trench box and continuously place and compact the backfill material adjacent to and all along the side of the trench box walls to fill any voids created by the trench box. Backfill in the dry whenever normal dewatering equipment and methods can accomplish the needed dewatering. Provide normal dewatering equipment including, but not limited to, surface pumps, sump pumps, wellpoints and header pipe and trenching /digging machinery. Provide normal dewatering methods including, but not limited to, constructing shallow surface drainage 10 Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Protect No. 01.3032.15 trenches /ditches, using sand blankets, perforated pipe drains, sumps and siphons. Do not allow heavy construction equipment to cross over baffle boxes or pipe alignments until placing and compacting backfill material to the finished earthwork grade or to an elevation at least 4 feet above the crown of the pipe. The Contractor may elect to place material in thicker lifts of no more than 12 inches compacted thickness above the Soil Envelope if he can demonstrate with a successful test section that density can be achieved. The Contractor may elect to place material in 6 inches compacted thickness at any time. Backfill around baffle boxes and pipes on both sides simultaneously to approximately the same elevation. In general, structural fill should consist of fine sands (SP /SP -SM), which can be moved and used for grading purposes, site leveling, general engineering fill, structural fill and backfill in other areas, provided the fill is free of organic materials, clay, debris or any other material deemed unsuitable for construction. All fill should be placed in accordance with the recommendations provided in this report. In Federal Register, Volume 54, No. 209 (October 1989), the United States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) amended its "Construction Standards for Excavations, 29 CFR, Part 1926, Subpart P ". This document was issued to better insure the safety of workmen entering trenches or excavations. It is mandated by this federal regulation that excavations, whether they be utility trenches, basement excavations or foundation excavations, be constructed in accordance with the new OSHA guidelines. It is our understanding that these regulations are being strictly enforced and if they are not closely followed, the owner and the contractor could be liable for substantial penalties. The contractor is solely responsible for designing and constructing stable, temporary excavations and should shore, slope, or bench the sides of the excavations as required to maintain stability of both the excavation sides and bottom. The contractors "responsible persons ", as defined in 29 CFR Part 1926, should evaluate the soil exposed in the excavations as part of the contractor's safety procedures. In no case should slope height, slope inclination, or excavation depth, including utility trench excavation depth, exceed those specified in all local, state, and federal safety regulations. We are providing this information solely as a service to our client. Anticus does not assume responsibility for construction site safety or the contractor's or other party's compliance with local, state, and federal safety or other regulations. 7.9 SHEET PILING Temporary sheet piling may be utilized during excavation activities associated with construction of the baffle box structures. Sheet pile design shall be the responsibility of the Contractor, if utilized. Ground vibration levels should be monitored during the installation and extraction of sheet piling to verify protection of nearby existing structures. Anticus recommends addressing the protection of existing structures within the plans by stating that it is the responsibility of the Contractor to take all necessary precautions to protect existing structures and that it is the Contactor's responsibility to repair any damage caused at his expense. 11 Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements - Clearwater Florida Anticus Project No. 01.3032.15 7.10 PROTECTING EXISTING STRUCTURES Based on a review of current aerial imagery, it appears structures are within 50 feet of baffle boxes B -1 and B -4; and within 100 feet of baffle box B -3. We recommend addressing the protection of existing structures within the plans by stating that it is the responsibility of the Contractor to take all necessary precautions to protect existing structures and that it is the Contactor's responsibility to repair any damage caused at his expense. We would recommend the use of a structure condition survey and vibration monitoring at critical locations as determined during the structure condition survey. 8.0 FOLLOW -UP SERVICES Our services do not end with the submission of this geotechnical report. Anticus should be kept involved throughout the design and construction process to maintain continuity and to verify that our recommendations are properly interpreted and implemented. To achieve this, we should review project plans and specifications with the designers to see that our recommendations are fully incorporated. We also should be retained to monitor and test the site preparation and foundation construction. Anticus's familiarity with the site and with the foundation recommendations make us a valuable part of your construction quality assurance team. Anticus recommends that we be retained by the owner to observe earthwork and foundation construction. Our personnel are uniquely qualified to recognize unanticipated ground conditions and can offer responsive remedial recommendations should these unanticipated conditions occur. 9.0 LIMITATIONS OF REPORT This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Interflow Engineering, LLC and their designers for specific application to the project previously discussed. Our conclusions and recommendations have been prepared using generally accepted standards of geotechnical engineering and engineering geology practice in the State of Florida. No other warranty is expressed or implied. Our conclusions and recommendations are based on the design information furnished to us, the data obtained from the previously described exploration and our experience. They do not necessarily reflect variations in the subsurface conditions, which are likely to exist intermediate of our borings and in unexplored areas of the site due to the inherent variability of the subsurface conditions in this geologic region as well as past land use. Should such variations become apparent during construction, it will be necessary to re- evaluate our conclusions and recommendations based upon on -site observation of the conditions. If changes are made in the overall design or location of the building and grading scheme, then the recommendations presented in this report may no longer be valid. In such cases, our firm should review the proposed changes to evaluate whether our recommendations need to be modified. The results of this review should be provided in writing. We also request the opportunity to review the foundation plan, grading plan and applicable portions of the project specifications when the design is finalized. This review will allow us to check whether these documents are consistent with the intent of our recommendations. 12 Report of Geotechnical Engineering Services August 5, 2015 East Gateway Storm Improvements — Clearwater, Florida Anticus Protect No. 01.3032.15 Sampling and testing of the soil, rock, ground water, surface water and air for the presence of environmental contamination was beyond the scope of this exploration. We will be glad to provide these services at your request. The site is underlain by limestone bedrock that is susceptible to dissolution and the subsequent development of karst features such as voids and sinkholes in the natural soil overburden. Construction in a sinkhole prone area is therefore accompanied by some risk that internal soil erosion and ground subsidence could affect new structures in the future. It is not possible to investigate or design to completely eliminate the possibility of future sinkhole related problems. In any event, the Owner must understand and accept this risk. 13 0 Z W W J FIELD TEST LOCATION PLAN D_ Z N O W a 0 O 00 ce 8 0 a0 am �m ANT ICUSkik ENGINE ERIN*, Post Office Box 921 Phone /Fax (813) 642 -3965 Riverview.

The profiles depicted are of a generalized nature to highlight the major subsurface stratification features and material characteristics. The soil profiles include soil description, stratifications and penetration resistances. The stratifications shown on the boring profiles represent the conditions only at the actual boring location. Variations may occur and should be expected between boring locations. The stratifications represent the approximate boundary between subsurface materials and the actual transition may be gradual. 2. Groundwater levels generally fluctuate during periods of prolonged drought and extended rainfall and may be affected by man -made influences. In addition, a seasonal effect will also occur in which higher groundwater levels or temporary perched conditions are normally recorded in rainy seasons. 3.

Specific Purpose Survey to record test hole information on specific subsurface utilities along Pierce Street, Park Street, Franklin Street, Santa Rosa Street, South Hillcrest Avenue, and Waverly Way in Clearwater, Pinellas County, Florida. 2. Survey date: June 15 to June 19, 2015. 3. Prepared for the exclusive benefit of: Interflow Engineering LLC. 4. Horizontal and vertical location of these test holes is not provided. Test hole information collected includes: Type of utility, measure down (measurement from ground surface to the top of utility), size of utility and utility material composition. 5. Copies of field notes have been provided as a part of this submittal and must be utilized in conjunction with this report. George F. Young and the signing surveyor take no responsibility for utility line designation and VVH information surveyed by others. Field notes depicting the general orientation of subsurface utility designation and VVH information can be used to help verify the work of those surveying this information. 6. This report contains subsurface utilities physically exposed by vacuum excavation. Electronically designated lines, as marked in the field, may deviate from the actual utility location and should be considered approximate. 7. Subsurface storm drain and gravity sanitary sewer structures and their associated piping are specifically excluded from this survey. 8. Measure downs (depth of cover) are valid at the date of this survey only, as surface grade conditions may change over time. 9. Subsurface Utilities were located by utilizing the Vacmaster System for vacuum excavation with the benefit of electronic designation and ground penetrating radar (GPR). 10. Utilization of the above equipment and methods is the industry recognized procedure for finding and locating underground utilities. Although effective and reliable, there is the possibility that all utilities may not be detected due to environmental conditions, soil conditions, water table, excessive depth, and/or feature makeup. 11. Utility size reflects the approximate outside diameter unless otherwise specified. 12. Utility size and material composition were collected by field observation under adverse conditions and should be considered approximate. 13. Utility owners names used in this report reflect information obtained from field observations, field meetings and utility research. 14. Additions or deletions to survey maps or reports by other than the signing party or parties are prohibited without the written consent of the signing party or parties. 15. Not valid without the signature and the original raised seal of a Florida Licensed Surveyor and Mapper. George F. Young, Inc., LB021 Michael J.

INTRODUCTION: 1. Flowable fill refers to a cementitious slurry consisting of a mixture of fine aggregate or filler, water, and cementitious material(s), which is used as a fill or backfill in lieu of compacted earth. This mixture is capable of filling all voids in irregular excavations and hard to reach places (such as under undercuts of existing slabs), is self - leveling, and hardens in a matter of a few hours without the need for compaction in layers. Flowable fill is sometimes referred to as Controlled Density Fill (CDF), Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), Lean Concrete Slurry, and Unshrinkable Fill. 2 . Flowable fill materials will be used as void fill in pipes and structures labeled Abandon in Place or Abandon. B. DESCRIPTION: 1. Furnish and place flowable fill in a fluid condition that sets within the required time and, after curing obtains the desired strength properties as evidenced by the laboratory testing of the specific mix design, at locations shown on the plans or as directed by the Engineer, verbally or in writing. This section specifies flowable fill for use as structural fill to remain excavatable using hand tools. 1.2 RELATED WORK: A. MATERIALS TESTING AND INSPECTION DURING CONSTRUCTION. B. EARTHWORK, EXCAVATION AND BACKFILL AND COMPACTION REQUIREMENTS. 1.3 DEFINITIONS: Flowable Fill - ready -mix controlled low strength material used as in closures for tanks and pipes, and is also known as controlled density fill, and several other names, some of which are trademark names of material suppliers. Flowable fill (controlled low strength material) differs from portland cement concrete as it contains a low cementitious content to reduce strength development for possible future removal. Unless specifically approved otherwise, by the Engineer, flowable fill shall be designed as a permanent material, not designed for future removal. Design strength for this permanent type flowable fill shall have a minimum compressive strength set forth in Table 1.3 Flowable Fill. Chemical admixtures may also be used in flowable fill to modify performance properties of strength, flow, set, acidity /alkalinity, corrosion resistance, and permeability.

These items shall have 21 full force and effect as the Bid Documents, and the cost involved shall be included in the various prices 22 bid. Bids, to be submitted on the specified bid date, shall conform to the additions and revisions listed 23 herein. 24 25 CLARIFICATION OF SPECIFICATIONS - QUESTIONS BY CRISDEL S26 "Pay item 309, the 20" Watermain By Pass Item — I think that this is for a by pass at Hillcrest and Park 27 East since the new 20" waterline will run exactly where the existing is located ?" 28 Response: Item 309 is for the valve needed to control the 8" temporary supply in Pay Item 313. 29 Majority of the new 20" waterline will be constructed offset from the existing 20" main; there is 30 only a small portion required for transitioning back to the existing main with thrust restraints. 31 32 "Pay item 306, the 8" DIP waterline loop pay item. I see that it's mentioned in the Transmission Main 33 Sequence specification, but I don't see any 8" waterline other than the temporary supply." 34 Response: Item 306 is for the Phase 3 air release valve, not the Phase 1 8" temporary supply line. 35 36 "Also, I assume that we're restraining the existing pipe along Court Street, not installing new AC 37 waterline. See plan sheet 76, it calls for the placement of new 16" and 20" AC watermain along Court. 38 I'm thinking the notes should say "restrain ", not "install "." 39 Response: Clarification - Correct, only restraining the existing mains (20" east and 16" west) is the 40 intent.

WM, RJ; INCLUDING POLY WRAP, FITTINGS, & BENDS" but the payment 26 section of the specifications indicates that fittings will be paid for by the ton. Please correct one or the 27 other as they conflict. 28 RESPONSE: Refer to Section IVa Technical Specifications, specifically STS-05 (Basis of 29 Measurement and Payment), which amend and supplement Section IV 30 Are the tees for the hydrants to be included in the hydrant pay item? It specifies the hydrant, pipe, thrust 31 anchorage, gate valve and valve box but makes no mention of the tee in the specifications. 32 RESPONSE: Refer to Section IVa Technical Specifications, STS -05. The tee is a fitting for the 33 hydrant per City Standard Drawing 402 and to be included and paid under the hydrant item. 34 The potable and reclaimed mains do not address which pay item is to include the restraints on the new 35 pipe. The pipe item stipulates poly wrap, fittings and bends but does not mention restraints whereas the 36 items that do mention restraints indicates that it is for existing pipe only. 37 RESPONSE: Refer to Section IVa Technical Specifications, STS -05; restraints are to be paid under 38 the pipe item 39 Can you please clarify what you mean by the term Allowance as used in the pay item description for 40 items 324 and 325. 41 RESPONSE: ALLOWANCE - in bidding, a contingency for unforeseen costs and where quantities 42 are uncertain 43 What fittings and/or bends are we to include in item 321? It seems unlikely that a thrust block would 44 require either so we are unclear as to what to include. Page 1 of 4 • • 1 RESPONSE: The only Thrust block device for this project is Item 326 Thrust Collar shown on 2 Sheet 150 of the construction drawings which includes restraining devices shown 3 Please clarify whether or not precast storm inlets will not be allowed. The specifications say no, but the 4 details in the plans (albeit for different inlets) say yes. The pay items reference FDOT index numbers for 5 the bottoms of the inlets. The referenced index (200) does not address the use of built in place brick 6 structures. Clearwater has historically allowed built in place brick structures, will they be allowed on this 7 project? 8 RESPONSE: The City of Clearwater and Engineer of Record will allow precast inlet bottoms in 9 lieu of brick structures for this project. Basis of payment is per Section IVa Technical 10 Specifications, STS -05. 11 We are a bit confused as to what you want for storm wing inlets type A, C and F. We do not see details 12 for these in the plans and they are not standard FDOT types. 13 RESPONSE: Refer to Addendum 3 14 STS -02 and STS -03 have an apparent conflict. Will unsuitable materials in pipe trenches be paid for 15 under item 104 REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT OF UNSUITABLE MATERIAL (ALLOWANCE) as 16 indicated in STS -02 or is it to be included in the storm pipe items as indicated in STS -03? 17 RESPONSE: STS -03 applies to storm sewer pipe trenches; all other unsuitable material (e.g., 18 excavations for structures, water main, etc.) shall be paid for under item 104. 19 Page 317 (adobe numbering) says it is the Geotechnical Sol Report but has no such report. Is page 331 20 (adobe numbering) the actual report or are there supposed to be two reports? 21 RESPONSE: There is only one soil report. 22 Please clarify what specific density tests you are referring to in STS -03 where you state "Contractor shall 23 perform density tests on pipe foundation materials in accordance with Geotechnical Engineer's 24 specifications;" The only place we see the Geotechnical report calling for density tests is at the baffle box 25 locations is that correct? It would be our reading that in lieu of compacting the native sands or placing and 26 compacting sands we could place #57 rock and not have to take a density test, is that a correct 27 interpretation of your intent? 28 RESPONSE: Density tests will not be required for pipe foundation material consisting of suitable 29 native sands. However, density tests are required on all backfill material, per Section W Technical 30 Specifications, 304 -2. 31 Sanitary Sewer Questions 32 On Plan Sheet 42 in the vicinity of MH 103, you have a note stating "CONST LATERAL TO 8" PVC 33 SAN WITH COUPLING ". Please clarify your intent, the existing 8" main is not aligned such that we 34 could connect it straight to the manhole and typically 8" bends in gravity sewer are not acceptable so we 35 are unsure what you want constructed. 36 RESPONSE: All existing sanitary lateral services found shall be re- connected to the proposed 8" 37 PVC SDR -35 SAN mainline, and not to proposed manholes, unless shown otherwise. The 38 contractor shall refer to City Sanitary Details 304 & 305 for sanitary cleanout and service lateral 39 connections. •40 On plan sheet 56, the sanitary sewer from 225 to 220 is listed as being 140 LF in the profile view and 145 41 LF in the plan view, which is correct? (We assume 145 is correct.) Page 2 of 4 1 RESPONSE: The correct distance sanitary sewer line 225 to 220 is 145 LF S2 On Plan Sheet 57 in the vicinity of MH 425, you have a note stating "CONST (2) LATERAL TO 8" PVC 3 SAN WITH COUPLING ". Please clarify your intent, the existing 8" main is not aligned such that we 4 could connect it straight to the manhole and typically 8" bends in gravity sewer are not acceptable so we 5 are unsure what you want constructed. If connected to the main instead of the manhole, at least one of the 6 lines would also have in excess of a 90 degree turn which is typically unacceptable outside of manholes 7 and discouraged even in manholes. See image below: 8 RESPONSE: All existing sanitary lateral services found shall be re- connected to the proposed 8" 9 PVC SDR -35 SAN mainline, and not to proposed manholes, unless shown otherwise. The 10 contractor shall refer to City Sanitary Details 304 & 305 for sanitary cleanout and service lateral 11 connections. • 12 On plans sheet 60, sanitary sewer manhole 465 is referenced as having an invert of 26.5 (RCP). Since 13 there is no such thing as 8" RCP, please correct the pipe material type. 14 RESPONSE: Correct reference from 8" RCP to 8" PVC for sanitary sewer lines 15 Plan sheet 66 has a stub out variously referred to as 3' and 5' depending on whether you look at the plan 16 view or the profile. Which is correct? We assumed 3' is correct. 17 RESPONSE: The correct distance for the stub out is 5 LF 18 On Plan Sheet 74 in the vicinity of MH 270, you have a note stating "CONST LATERAL TO NEW 8" 19 PVC, MATCH INV ". The same type of thing happens on sheet 75 near MH 295. Please clarify your 20 intent, the existing 8" main is not aligned such that we could connect it straight to the manhole and 21 typically 8" bends in gravity sewer are not acceptable so we are unsure what you want constructed. 22 RESPONSE: All existing sanitary lateral services found shall be re- connected to the proposed 8" 23 PVC SDR -35 SAN mainline, and not to proposed manholes, unless shown otherwise. The 24 contractor shall refer to City Sanitary Details 304 & 305 for sanitary cleanout and service lateral 25 connections. 26 Plan sheet 70 shows us connecting to existing manhole 117. Is there a detail for this connection 27 somewhere, similar to what you provide on plan sheet 146 for the tie ins to 177, 22 and 79? 28 RESPONSE: No detail is required to show connection to existing manhole 117. Connection to be at 29 existing invert elevation. 30 Plan sheet 71 depicts what appears to be a new manhole upstream and to the south of manhole 410. Is this 31 in fact to be a new manhole or is it existing? In either case, we need rim and invert information for it. 32 RESPONSE: Proposed manhole 413 (south of 410) was not labeled.

What is it being connected to? It appears to be floating in space with 7 no connection to the new sanitary sewer. 8 RESPONSE: All existing sanitary lateral services found shall be re- connected to the proposed 8" 9 PVC SDR -35 SAN mainline, and not to proposed manholes, unless shown otherwise. The 10 contractor shall refer to City Sanitary Details 304 & 305 for sanitary cleanout and service lateral 11 connections.

The questions ask what pay items the specific items of 24 work indicated are to be paid under but the specification sections referenced in the answer do not address 25 that. For example, plan sheet 78 depicts 16" DIP water main and fittings to be installed as part of this 26 project. However, there are no pay items currently provided on the bid form that correspond to this work. 27 The specifications do not tell us where to bid this 16" water main. Where (which pay items) is the cost of 28 the work associated with the 16" water main to be bid and subsequently paid for the project? Similarly, 29 the same problems exist for the 4" water main items asked about in Addendum #2. 30 31 RESPONSE: Refer to Pay Item 302 F &I 16" DIP WM, RJ; INCLUDING POLY WRAP, FITTINGS, 32 COUPLES & BENDS 33 QUESTION: On plan sheet 153, Phase #3 shows some 4" WM work (tap, pipe, valve & air release) 34 happening at the north end but this work is not reflected on plan sheet 78 and there does not appear to be 35 any bid items that address this work. Is this something temporary or permanent and where are we to bid 36 this work (which pay item(s))? 37 38 RESPONSE: There is a 4" supply line leading up to the air release valve, payable as Item 316 F &I 2" 39 AIR VALVE (VAL -MATIC VMC- 38VC), INCLUDING SUPPLY PIPE, APPURTENANCES, 40 FITTINGS, BENDS, & CONC.

First, is the valve a 20" or 8" and is it the only item of 45 work included in this pay item or does it include anything further. The pay item description is somewhat 46 vague and we cannot find anything else that would fall under this item. Second, in the latest bid form we 47 were provided in Addendum #2, Item 313 is for a 20" Gate Valve & Box (City 402) not for the 8" Page 3 of 6 • • • 1 temporary supply.

Is the Air Release Valve 9 the only item of work included in this pay item or does it include anything further. The pay item 10 description is unclear as to what is included and we cannot find anything else that would fall under this 11 item. 12 13 RESPONSE: Item 306 F &I 8" DIP WM, RJ (LOOP); INCLUDING POLY WRAP, FITTINGS, AND 14 BENDS is no longer applicable and was removed from the construction plans prior to bid submittal. 15 16 QUESTION: Where are we to bid the Air Release Valve to be installed on the 20" WM as depicted on 17 Sheet 76 (which pay item)? There does not appear to be a bid item for this work and the measurement 18 and payment spec for the pipe does not appear to include air release valves. You state in an Addendum #3 19 response that Item 306 is for the Phase 3 air release valve.

This pay item was removed from the revised bid form in 31 Addendum 2 but these two storm structures are still called out to be installed on the plans (structure 1123 32 on plan sheet 42 and structure 6051 on plan sheet 43). Since the pay item for these structures has been 33 removed from the bid form, under which pay item are we to bid these two structures or are they to be 34 considered incidental to the project? 35 36 RESPONSE: The original Bidders Proposal had a Bid/ Pay Item #217 F &I FDOT 232 TYPE E which 37 has been deleted from the construction drawings, and subsequently changed the bid numbers to shift up 38 by one.

Are the quantities incorrect on the bid form or 5 are we to make the changes to the structure bottoms of the structures based on the pay item quantity on 6 the revised bid form? It looks as if when Item 218 was eliminated from the revised bid form and the other 7 items shifted up, the quantities didn't shift up to match the items. 8 9 RESPONSE: The original Bidders Proposal had a Bid/ Pay Item #217 F &I FDOT 232 TYPE E which 10 has been deleted from the construction drawings, and subsequently changed the bid numbers to shift up 11 by one.
