below the ground) in proximity to the site of the work of Contractor's intention to use explosives, and
such notice shall be given sufficiently in advance to enable the companies to take such steps as they may
deem necessary to protect their property from injury. Such notice, however, shall not relieve the

required by the contract documents. The Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right at all times to
observe and test the work. Contractor shall make necessary arrangements and provide proper facilities and access
for such observation and testing at any location wherever such work is in preparation or progress. Contractor shall
ascertain the scope of any observation that may be contemplated by Owner or Owner's Representative and shall
give ample notice as to the time each part of the work will be ready for such observation. Owner or Owner's
Representative may reject any such work found to be defective or not in accordance with the contract documents,
regardless of the stage of its completion or the time or place of discovery of such errors and regardless of whether
Owner's Representative has previously accepted the work. If any such work should be covered without approval
or consent of the Owner, it must, if requested by Owner or Owner's Representative, be uncovered for examination
at Contractor's expense. In the event that any part of the work is being fabricated or manufactured at a location
where it is not convenient for Owner or Owner's Representative to make observations of such work or require
testing of said work, then in such event Owner or Owner's Representative may require Contractor to furnishOwner
or Owner's Representative certificates of inspection, testing or approval made by persons competent to perform
such tasks at the location where that part of the work is being manufactured or fabricated. All such tests will be in
accordance with the methods prescribed by the American Society for Testing and Materials or such other applicable
organization as may be required by law or the contract documents.
If any such work which is required to be inspected, tested, or approved is covered up without written approval or
consent of the Owner or Owner's Representative, it must, if requested by the Owner or Owner's Representative, be
uncovered for observation and testing at the Contractor's expense. The cost of all such inspections, tests and
approvals shall be borne by the Contractor unless otherwise provided herein. Any work which fails to meet the
requirements of any such tests, inspections or approvals, and any work which meets the requirements of any such
tests or approvals but does not meet the requirements of the contract documents shall be considered defective, and
shall be corrected at the Contractor's expense.
Neither observations by the Owner or Owner's Representative, nor inspections, tests, or approvals made by Owner,
Owner's Representative, or other persons authorized under the contract documents to make such inspections, tests,
or approvals shall relieve the Contractor from its obligation to perform the work in accordance with the requirements
of the contract documents.
22. DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES
It is expressly agreed that if the work or any part thereof, or any material brought on the site of the work for use in
the work or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the Owner or Owner's Representative as unsuitable or not in
conformity with plans, specifications and/or contract documents, the Contractor shall, after receipt of written notice
thereof from the Owner's Representative, forthwith remove such material and rebuild or otherwise remedy such
work so that it shall be in full accordance with the contract documents. It is further agreed that any remedial action
contemplated as hereinabove set forth shall be at Contractor's expense.
23. CHANGES AND ALTERATIONS
The Contractor further agrees that the Owner may make such changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit, in
the line, grade, form dimensions, plans or materials for the work herein contemplated, or any part thereof, either
before or after the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this contract and the accompanying
bond.
If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a
claim for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with. If they increase the amount of
work, and the increased work can fairly be classified under the specifications, such increase shall be paid according
to the quantity actually done and at the unit price established for such work under this contract; otherwise such
additional work shall be paid for as provided under Extra Work. In case the Owner shall make such changes or
alterations as shall make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the
Owner shall recompense the Contractor for any material or labor so used, and for actual expenses incurred in
preparation for the work as originally planned.
24. EXTRA WORK
The term "extra work" as used in this contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be required
by the Owner or Owner's Representative to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change, alteration or
addition to the work as shown on the plans and specifications or contract documents and not covered by Contractor's
proposal, except as provided under Changes and Alterations in Paragraph 23.
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the observation of the Owner's Representative
when presented with a written work order signed by the Owner's Representative; subject, however, to the right of
the Contractor to require written confirmation of such extra work order by the Owner. It is also agreed that the
compensation to be paid to the Contractor for performing said extra work shall be determined by the following
methods:
Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or
Method (B) - By agreed lump sum; or
Method (C) - If neither Method (A) or Method (B) be agreed upon before the extra work is commenced,
then the Contractor shall be paid the lesser of the following: (1) actual field cost of the
extra work, plus fifteen (15%) percent to the firm actually performing the work, and
additional higher-tier markups limited to 5% to cover additional overhead and insurance
costs; or (2) the amount that would have been charged by a reasonable and prudent
Contractor as a reasonable and necessary cost for performance of the extra work, as
estimated by the Engineer and approved by the Owner..
In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under Method (C)(1), then the provisions of this paragraph
shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost of all workers, such as foremen,
timekeepers, mechanics and laborers, materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on machinery and equipment, for
the time actually employed or used on such extra work, plus actual transportation charges necessarily incurred,
together with all expenses incurred directly on account of such extra work, including Social Security, Old Age
sation and all other
insurances as may be required by law or ordinances or directed by the Owner or Owner's Representative, or by them
agreed to. Owner's Representative may direct the form in which accounts of the actual field cost shall be kept and
records of these accounts shall be made available to the Owner's Representative. The Owner's Representative may
also specify in writing, before the work commences, the method of doing the work and the type and kind of
machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise, these matters shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless
otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be determined by using 100%,
unless otherwise specified, of the latest Schedule of Equipment and Ownership Expenses adopted by the Associated
General Contractors of America. Where practical, the terms and prices for the use of machinery and equipment
shall be incorporated in the written extra work order. The fifteen percent (15%) of the actual field cost to be paid
to Contractor shall cover and compensate Contractor for its profit, overhead, general superintendence and field
office expense, and all other elements of cost and expense not embraced within the actual field cost as herein
defined, save that where the Contractor's Camp or Field Office must be maintained primarily on account of such
Extra Work, then the cost to maintain and operate the same shall be included in the "actual field cost."
No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by Owner's Representative. In case
any orders or instructions appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which Contractor should receive
compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, Contractor shall prior to commencement of suchextra
work, make written request to the Owner's Representative for a written order authorizing such extra work. Should
a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute extra work or as to the payment therefore, and
the Owner's Representative insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making
written request for written order and shall keep adequate and accurate account of the actual field cost thereof, as
provided under Method (C) (1). If Contractor
of any extra work, any claim for payment due to alleged extra work shall be deemed waived.
25. DISCREPANCIES AND OMISSIONS
It is further agreed that it is the intent of the contract documents that all work described in the proposal, the
specifications, plans and other contract documents, is to be done for the prices quoted by the Contractor and that
such price shall include all appurtenances necessary to complete the work in accordance with the intent of these
contract documents as interpreted by Owner's Representative. Notices of any discrepancies or omissions in these
plans, specifications, or contract documents, shall be given to the Owners' Representative and a clarification
obtained before the proposals are received, and if no such notice is received by the Owner's Representative
prior to the opening of proposals, then it shall be deemed that the Contractor fully understands the work to
be included and has provided sufficient sums in its proposal to complete the work in accordance with these
discrepancies or omissions, then it shall be deemed for all purposes that the plans and specifications are
sufficient and adequate for completion of the project. It is further agreed that any request for clarification
must be submitted no later than five (5) calendar days prior to the opening of proposals. In the absence of a
requested clarification for a conflict in the documents prior to proposals being reviewed, it will be assumed
that the Contractor proposes the higher cost alternative on conflicts identified after proposals are reviewed.
26. RIGHT OF OWNER TO MODIFY METHODS AND EQUIPMENT
If at any time the methods or equipment used by the Contractor are found to be inadequate to secure the quality of
work with the rate of progress required under this contract, the Owner or Owner's Representative may order the
Contractor in writing to increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency and the Contractor shall
comply with such order. If, at any time, the working force of the Contractor is inadequate for securing the progress
herein specified, the Contractor shall, if so ordered in writing, increase its force or equipment, or both, to

precautions by either the Contractor or any of its subcontractors.

or subcontractors perform any work contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and without such
notice to the Owner's Representative, Contractor shall bear all costs arising there from.

It is hereby understood and mutually agreed by and between the Contractor and the Owner, that the date of beginning
and time for completion as specified in the Notice to Proceed and contract documents, respectively, of work to be
done hereunder are essential conditions of this contract; and it is further mutually understood and agreed that the
work embraced in this contract shall be commenced as provided in the contract documents.
If the Contractor should neglect, fail, or refuse to substantially complete the work within the time herein specified,
then the Contractor does hereby agree as part of the consideration for the awarding of this contract, the Owner may
withhold permanently from Contractor's total compensation, the sum of $25 PER DAY, not as a penalty, but as
liquidated damages for the breach of the contract as herein set forth for each and every working day that the
Contractor shall be in default after the time stipulated for substantially completing the work.
It is expressly understood and agreed, by and between Contractor and the Owner, that the time for the substantial
completion of the work described herein is reasonable time for the completion of the same, taking into consideration
the average climatic range and conditions and usual industrial conditions prevailing in this locality. The amount is
fixed and agreed upon by and between the Contractor and the Owner because the actual damages the Owner would
sustain in such event would be difficult and/or impossible to estimate, however, the amount agreed upon herein is
a reasonable forecast of the amount necessary to render just compensation to Owner, and is expressly agreed to be
not disproportionate to actual damages as measured at time of breach.
IT IS FURTHER AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD BETWEEN THE CONTRACTOR AND OWNER THAT
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE OF THIS CONTRACT.
35. TIME AND ORDER OF COMPLETION
It is the meaning and intent of this contract, unless otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall
be allowed to prosecute its work in such order of precedence, and in such manner as shall be most conductive to
economy of construction. The Contractor shall ensure daily prosecution of the work is conducted every business
day until completed, regardless if the work will be substantially or finally complete ahead of specified deadlines in
the agreement, unless the City determines time off from said prosecution is necessary or reasonable and Contractor
received said determination in writing from the City. Further, when the Owner is having other work done, either by
contract or by its own force, the Owner's Representative (as distinguished from the Resident Project Representative)
may direct the time and manner of constructing work done under this contract so that conflicts will be avoided and
the construction of the various works being done for the Owner shall be harmonized. Additionally, inclement
weather shall be the only other reason consistent, daily prosecution of the work may not take place on those
inclement weather days.
The Contractor shall submit, at such times as may reasonably be requested by the Owner's Representative, schedules
which shall show the order in which the Contractor intends to carry on the work, with dates at which the Contractor
will start the several parts of the work and estimated dates of completion of the several parts.
36. TIME OF PERFORMANCE
The Contractor agrees that it has submitted its proposal in full recognition of the time required for the completion
of this project, taking into consideration the average climatic range and industrial conditions prevailing in this

47. CLAIM OR DISPUTE
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor
shall be in writing and filed with the Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) calendar days after the Owner's
Representative has given any direction, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to take exception.

Contractor.
48. NON-COMPLIANCE AND/OR ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR
In case the Contractor should (1) abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within fifteen (15) calendar days after
written notification from the Owner or the Owner's Representative, or (2) if the Contractor fails to comply with the
written orders of the Owner's Representative, when such orders are consistent with this contract, then the Surety on
the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work and a copy of said notice shall be delivered
to the Contractor. In the event a bond is not required by law, or otherwise obtained by the Contractor, no further
notice of such non-compliance to Contractor shall be required.
After receiving said notice of abandonment or non-compliance , the Contractor shall not remove from the work any
machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and
equipment under the contract for work, may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety of the
Contractor, or another contractor, in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit
therefore (except when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under
paragraph 24 of this contract); it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately
reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement.
In the event the Contractor, or Surety, whichever is applicable, should fail to commence compliance with the notice
hereinbefore provided within ten (10) calendar days after service of such notice, and/or shall fail to proceed with
diligence to complete the project as contemplated and in compliance with all terms and provisions of the contract
documents, then the Owner may exercise any and all remedies available to it pursuant to law, contract, equity or
otherwise, including, but not limited to, providing for completion of the work in either of the following elective
manners:
(a) The Owner may employ such force of persons and use of machinery, equipment, tools, materials and
supplies as said Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor,
machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so charged shall be
deducted and paid by the Owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time
become due to the Contractor under and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the
sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by the Contractor,
then said Contractor shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would
have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by said Contractor, then the
Contractor and/or its Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner; or
(b) The Owner, under sealed proposals, after notice published as required by law, at least twice in a newspaper
having a general circulation in the County of location of the work, may let the contract for the completion
of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract. In case
of any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost
under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the Contractor and the Surety shall be and remain
bound therefore. Should the cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than that which would
have been the cost to complete the work under this contract, the Contractor or his Surety shall be credited
therewith.
been finally completed, the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and certification of completion as provided
in paragraph 44 hereinabove set forth, shall be issued. A complete itemized statement of the contract accounts,
certified to by Owner's Representative as being correct shall then be prepared and delivered to Contractor and his
Surety, if applicable, whereon the Contractor or his Surety, or the Owner as the case may be, shall pay the balance
due as reflected by said statement within 30 days after the date of certification of completion.
In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have
been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this contract, or when
the Contractor and/or his Surety, if applicable, shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the Owner, then
all machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the
Contractor and/or his Surety, if applicable. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the
Contractor and/or his Surety, if applicable, fail to pay the amount due the Owner within the time designated
hereinabove, and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the site of the work,
notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the Contractor and
his Surety, if applicable, at the respective addresses designated in this contract; provided, however, that actual
written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condition. After mailing, or other giving of such notice, such
property shall be held at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety, if applicable, subject only to the duty of the Owner
to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of said notice the
Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such
sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety, if applicable. Such sale may be made at either public or private
sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any machinery, equipment, tools,
materials, or supplies that remain on the jobsite and belong to persons other than the Contractor or his Surety, if
applicable, to their proper owners.
The remedies provided to Owner by law, equity, contract, or otherwise, shall be cumulative, to the extent permitted
by law. It is expressly agreed and understood that the exercise by Owner of the remedies provided in this paragraph
shall not constitute an election of remedies on the part of Owner, and Owner, irrespective of its exercise of remedies
hereunder, shall be entitled to exercise concurrently or otherwise, any and all other remedies available to it, by law,
equity, contract or otherwise, including but not limited to, liquidated damages, as provided in paragraph 34,
hereinabove set forth.
49.
The remedies of Contractor hereunder shall be limited to, and Owner shall be liable only for, work actually
performed by Contractor and/or its subcontractors as set forth in the contract documents, and Owner shall not be
liable for any consequential, punitive or indirect loss or damage that Contractor may suffer in connection with the
project which is the subject matter of this contract.
