ARTICLE 3 — CONTRACT DOCUMENTS: INTENT AND REUSE
INTENT:
3.1 The Contract Documents comprise the entire agreement between OWNER and CONTRACTOR
concerning the Work. They may be altered only by a Modification.
3.2 The Contract Documents are complementary; what is called for by one is as binding as if called for by all.
If during the performance of the Work, CONTRACTOR finds a conflict, error, or discrepancy in the
Contract Documents, he shall report it to ENGINEER in writing at once and before proceeding with the
Work affected thereby; however, CONTRACTOR shall not be liable to OWNER or ENGINEER for failure

3.3 The Contract documents include those documents set forth in Article 7 of the Agreement.
3.4 It is the intent of the Notes and Specifications to describe a complete Project (or part thereof) to be
constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents. Any Work that may reasonably be inferred from
the Specifications or Drawings as being required to produce the intended result shall be supplied whether or
not it is specifically called for. When words which have a well-known technical or trade meaning are used
to describe work, materials, or equipment, such words shall be interpreted in accordance with such
meaning. References to codes of any technical society, organization, or association, or to the code of any
governmental authority, whether such reference be specific or by implication, shall mean the latest standard
specification, manual, or code in effect at the time of opening of bids (or on the effective date of the
agreement if there were no bids), except as may be otherwise specifically stated. However, no provision of
any referenced standard specification, manual, or code (whether or not specifically incorporated by
reference in the Contract Documents) shall change the duties and responsibilities of OWNER,
CONTRACTOR, or ENGINEER, or any of their agents or employees from those set forth in the Contract
Documents. Clarifications and interpretations of the Contract Documents shall be issued by ENGINEER as
provided for in paragraph 9.3.
3.5 The Contract Documents will be governed by the law of the place of the Project.

copies of any thereof) prepared by or bearing the seal of ENGINEER; and they shall not reuse any of them on
extensions of the Project, or any other project, without written consent of OWNER and ENGINEER, and specific
written verification or adaptation by ENGINEER.
20
ARTICLE 4 — AVAILABILITY OF LANDS; PHYSICAL CONDITIONS; REFERENCE POINTS
AVAILABILITY OF LANDS:
4.1 OWNER shall furnish, as indicated in the Contract Documents, the lands upon which the Work is to be
performed, rights-of-way for access thereto, and such other lands which are designated for the use of
CONTRACTOR. Easements for permanent structures, or permanent changes in existing facilities, will be
obtained and paid for by OWNER, unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents. If
CONTRACTOR believes that any delay in OWNER'S furnishing these lands or easements entitles him to
an extension of the Contract Time, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 12.
CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 12. CONTRACTOR shall provide for
all additional lands and access hereto that may be required for temporary construction facilities or storage
of materials and equipment.
PHYSICAL CONDITIONS — INVESTIGATIONS AND REPORTS:
4.2 Reference is made to the supplementary conditions for identification of those reports of investigations and
tests of subsurface and latent physical conditions at the site or otherwise affecting cost, progress, or
performance of the Work which have been relied upon by ENGINEER in the preparation of the Drawings
and Specifications.
UNFORESEEN PHYSICAL CONDITIONS:
4.3 CONTRACTOR shall promptly notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writing of any subsurface or latent
physical conditions at the site or in an existing structure differing materially from those indicated or
referred to in the Contract Documents. ENGINEER will promptly review those conditions and advise
OWNER in writing if further investigation or tests are necessary. Promptly thereafter, OWNER may
obtain the necessary additional investigations and tests, and furnish copies to ENGINEER and
CONTRACTOR. If ENGINEER and OWNER find that the results of such investigations or tests indicate
that there are subsurface or latent physical conditions which differ materially from those intended in the
Contract Documents, and which could not reasonably have been anticipated by CONTRACTOR, a change
order may be issued incorporating the necessary revisions as agreed upon by the parties.
REFERENCE POINTS:
4.4 OWNER shall provide engineering surveys for construction to establish reference points which in his
judgment are necessary to enable CONTRACTOR to proceed with the Work. CONTRACTOR shall be
responsible for laying out the Work (unless otherwise specified herein), shall protect and preserve the
established reference points, and shall make no changes or relocations without the prior written approval of
OWNER. CONTRACTOR shall report to ENGINEER and OWNER whenever any reference point is lost
or destroyed or requires relocation because of necessary changes in grades or locations, and shall be
responsible for replacement or relocation of such reference points by professional qualified personnel.
ARTICLE 5 — BONDS AND INSURANCE

approval of the OWNER, or (b) insure the activities of his Subcontractors in his own policy.
23
5.6 Builder's Risk Insurance: Insofar as the Work to be performed under this Agreement consists entirely of
new construction removed and separated from any existing facility used by OWNER, CONTRACTOR
shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the Work of this Project, Builder's Risk Insurance, including
the perils of fire, extended coverage (loss due to vehicles, explosion, wind, flood, riot, etc.), vandalism and
malicious mischief, and special extended coverage (loss due to falling objects, collapse, water damage from
faulty or leaking systems, etc.) in the full amount of the Contract Price plus the cost of authorized extras.
Said amount of insurance coverage shall be considered to cover the insurable value of the Work under this
Agreement which is considered not to exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of this Agreement
and authorized extras. Such policy shall not insure any tools or equipment, or temporary structures erected
at the site and belonging to any person or persons, or their Subcontractors who are obliged by contract with
the OWNER to do Work on the Projects.
Such insurance shall be placed jointly in the names of the OWNER, CONTRACTOR, and any and all
Subcontractors, and any and all others obliged by contract with the OWNER to do Work on this Project and
at the OWNER'S option, any other person or persons whom the OWNER deems to have an insurable
interest in said property, or any part thereof, payable as their several interests may appear.
CONTRACTOR shall furnish OWNER with certification of said insurance prior to commencement of any
Work. Any proceeds obtained from insurance provided for by this paragraph shall be paid to and held by
the OWNER as trustee. The OWNER shall have the right to withhold payment of such proceeds until such
time as the Work destroyed or damaged and covered by such insurance shall be reconstructed and shall pay
such proceeds on an installment basis similar to that provided for by progress payments covering the
original Work.
5.7 Certificates of Insurance: Certificates of Insurance acceptable to the OWNER shall be filed with the
OWNER prior to commencement of the Work. These Certificates shall contain provisions naming the
OWNER as an additional insured under CONTRACTOR'S insurance, as more fully required by the
General Conditions herein, and that coverage afforded under the policies will not be cancelled until at least
thirty (30) days prior written notice has been given the OWNER. If any insurance company refuses to
provide the required notice, the CONTRACTOR or its insurance broker shall notify the OWNER of any
material reduction of coverage or limits, cancellation, suspension, non -renewal or any insurance within
seven (7) days of receipt of insurers' notification to that effect. CONTRACTOR and his Subcontractors
shall not permit any of his Subcontractors to start Work until all required insurance has been obtained and
certificates with the proper endorsements have been filed with the OWNER. Failure of the
CONTRACTOR to comply with the foregoing insurance requirement shall in no way waive the OWNER'S
rights hereunder.
5.8 Owner's Liability Insurance: The OWNER, at his option, may but shall not be required to purchase and
maintain such liability insurance as will protect him against claims which may arise from operations under
this Agreement. Purchasing and maintaining such insurance, however, will not relieve the
CONTRACTOR from purchasing and maintaining the insurance hereinbefore specified.
5.9 Loss of Use of Insurance: The OWNER, at his option, may but shall not be required to, purchase and
maintain such insurance as will insure him against loss of use of his property due to fire or other hazards,
however caused.

shall be responsible to see that the finished Work complies accurately with the Contract Documents.
6.2 CONTRACTOR shall keep on the Work at all times during its progress a competent resident
superintendent, who shall not be replaced without written notice to OWNER and ENGINEER except under
extraordinary circumstances. The superintendent will be CONTRACTOR'S representative at the site and
shall have authority to act on behalf of CONTRACTOR. All communications given to the superintendent
shall be as binding as if given to CONTRACTOR.
6.2.1 CONTRACTOR shall maintain and deliver to OWNER a daily job report of Work performed, notable
events and incidents, weather conditions, Subcontractor's performance, any deficiencies (and the corrective
actions taken), delays, and other information that OWNER may reasonably request.
6.2.2 CONTRACTOR will participate in meetings with OWNER at a specific date, time and place established by
OWNER, and to deliver all attending parties current reports on the following items: progress payment
requests; requests for information -current log; change requests- current log; submittals- current log; change
orders- current list; claims- pending claims, notices of claims and any plans to file claims, if applicable,
project progress report, job problems and quality control review.
LABOR, MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT:
6.3 CONTRACTOR shall provide competent, suitably qualified personnel to survey and lay out the Work, and
perform construction as required by the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall at all times maintain
good discipline and order at the site. Except in connection with the safety or protection of persons, or the
Work, or property at the site or adjacent thereto, and except as otherwise indicated in the supplementary
conditions, if any, all Work at the site shall be performed during regular working hours and
CONTRACTOR will not permit overtime Work or the perfonnance of Work on Saturday, Sunday, or any
legal holiday without OWNER'S written consent given after prior written notice to ENGINEER.
6.4 Colorado labor shall be employed to perform the Work to the extent of not less than eighty percent of each
type or class of labor in the several classifications of skilled and common labor employed on the Project.
"Colorado labor" means any person who is a resident of the State of Colorado, at the time of employment,
without discrimination as to race, color, creed, sex, age, or religion except when sex or age is a bona fide
occupational qualification.
25
6.5 CONTRACTOR shall furnish all materials, equipment, labor, transportation, construction equipment and
machinery, tools, appliances, fuel, power, light, heat, telephone, water, and sanitary facilities, and all other
facilities and incidentals necessary for the execution, testing, initial operation, and completion of Work.
6.6 All materials and equipment shall be of good quality and new, except as otherwise provided in the Contract
Documents. If required by ENGINEER, CONTRACTOR shall furnish satisfactory evidence (including
reports of required test) as to the kind and quality of materials and equipment.
6.7 All materials and equipment shall be applied, installed, connected, erected, used, cleaned, and conditioned
in accordance with the instructions of the applicable manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or distributor,
except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents.
6.8 CONTRACTOR shall replace supervision personnel as -needed based upon OWNER's assessment that the
Project is not adequately staffed or the Work is not progressing adequately.
6.9 CONTRACTOR shall at all times maintain a full-time management and supervisory staff of competent
persons at the Project site to coordinate and provide general direction of the Work and progress of
subcontractors on the Project.
6.10 CONTRACTOR agrees that only competent and skilled workmen who satisfactorily perform their duties
shall be employed on the Project and CONTRACTOR shall ensure that there are an adequate and
competent supply of skilled workmen and materials as necessary to carry out the Work on a continuous
basis.
EQUIVALENT MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT:
6.11 Whenever materials or equipment are specified or described in the drawings or specifications by using the
name of a proprietary item, or the name of a particular manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or distributor, the
naming of the item is intended to establish the type, function, and quality required. Unless the name is
followed by words indicating that no substitution is permitted, materials or equipment of other
manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers, or distributors may be accepted by ENGINEER and OWNER if
sufficient information is submitted by CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER and OWNER to determine that the
material or equipment proposed is equivalent to that named. The procedure for review by ENGINEER and
OWNER will be as set forth in paragraphs 6.11.1 and 6.11.2 below.
6.11.1 Requests for review of substitute items of material and equipment will not be accepted by
ENGINEER or OWNER from anyone other than CONTRACTOR. If CONTRACTOR wishes to
furnish or use a substitute item of material or equipment, CONTRACTOR shall make written
application to ENGINEER and OWNER for acceptance thereof, certifying that the proposed
substitute will perform adequately the functions called for by the general design, be similar and of
equal substance to that specified and be suited to the same use and capable of performing the same
function as that specified. The application will state whether or not acceptance of the substitute for
use in the Work will require a change in the drawings or specifications to adapt the design to the
substitute and whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is
subject of payment of any license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that
specified shall be identified in the application and available maintenance, repair and replacement
service will be indicated. The application will also contain an itemized estimate of all costs or
savings that will result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs of
redesign and claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which shall be
considered by ENGINEER and OWNER in evaluating the proposed substitute. ENGINEER may
require CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR'S expense, additional data about the
proposed substitute. ENGINEER and OWNER will be the sole judge of acceptability, and no
substitute will be ordered or installed without ENGINEER'S and OWNER's prior written
acceptance. OWNER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR'S expense, a
special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute.
6.11.2 ENGINEER will record time required by ENGINEER and ENGINEER'S consultants in evaluating
substitutions proposed by CONTRACTOR and in making changes in the drawings or
specifications occasioned thereby, whether or not ENGINEER accepts a proposed substitute.
CONTRACTOR shall reimburse OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER and ENGINEER'S
consultants for evaluating any proposed substitute.
CONCERNING SUBCONTRACTORS:
6.12 CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcontractor or other person or organization (including those who
are to furnish the principal items of materials or equipment), whether initially or as a substitute, against
whom OWNER or ENGINEER may have reasonable objection. A Subcontractor or other person or
organization identified in writing to OWNER and ENGINEER by CONTRACTOR prior to the Notice of
Award, and not objected to in writing by OWNER or ENGINEER prior to the Notice of Award, will be
deemed acceptable to OWNER and ENGINEER. Acceptance of any Subcontractor, other person or
organization by OWNER or ENGINEER shall not constitute a waiver of any right of OWNER or
ENGINEER to reject defective work. If OWNER or ENGINEER, after due investigation, has reasonable
objection to any Subcontractor, or other person or organization proposed by CONTRACTOR after the
Notice of Award, CONTRACTOR shall submit an acceptable substitute, and the Contract Price shall be
increased or decreased by the difference in cost occasioned by such substitution, and an appropriate change
order shall be issued. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to employ any Subcontractor, other person or
organization against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable objection.
6.13 CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible for all acts and omissions of his Subcontractors, and of persons
and organizations directly or indirectly employed by them, and of persons and organizations for whose acts
any of them may be liable to the same extent that CONTRACTOR is responsible for the acts and omissions
of persons directly employed by CONTRACTOR. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall create a
contractual relationship between OWNER or ENGINEER and any Subcontractor or other person or
organization having a direct contract with CONTRACTOR, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of
OWNER or ENGINEER to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due any Subcontractor, or other
person or organization, except as may otherwise by required by law. OWNER or ENGINEER may furnish
to any Subcontractor or other person or organization, to the extent practicable, evidence of amounts paid to
CONTRACTOR on account of specific Work done.
6.14 The divisions and sections of the specifications and the identifications of any drawings shall not control
CONTRACTOR in dividing the Work among Subcontractors, or delineating the Work to be performed by
any specific trade.
6.15 All Work performed for CONTRACTOR by a Subcontractor will be pursuant to an appropriate agreement
between CONTRACTOR and the Subcontractor which specifically binds the Subcontractor to the
applicable terms and conditions of the Contract Documents for the benefit of the OWNER and
ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR shall pay each Subcontractor a just share of any insurance monies received
by CONTRACTOR on account of losses under policies issued pursuant to paragraph 5.6.
PATENT FEES AND ROYALTIES:
6.16 CONTRACTOR shall pay all license fees and royalties, and assume all costs incident to the use in the
performance of the Work, or the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process, product, or
device which is the subject of patent rights or copyrights held by others. If a particular invention, design,
process, product, or device is specified in the Contract Documents for use in the performance of the Work,
and if to the actual knowledge of OWNER or ENGINEER its use is subject to patent rights or copyrights
27
calling for the payment of any license fee or royalty to others, the existence of such rights shall be disclosed
by OWNER in the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless OWNER and
ENGINEER and anyone directly or indirectly employed by either of them from and against all claims,
damages, losses, and expenses (including attorney's fees) arising out of any infringement of patent rights or
copyrights incident to the use in the performance of the Work, or resulting from the incorporation in the
Work of any invention, design, process, product, or device not specified in the Contract Documents, and
shall defend all such claims in connection with any alleged infringement of such rights.

6.26.2 The cost of all of the following will be included in the Contract Price, and CONTRACTOR
shall have full responsibility for:
a. Locating all Underground Facilities
b. Coordination of the Work with the owners of such Underground Facilities, including
OWNER, during construction; and the safety and protection of all such Underground
Facilities and repairing any damage thereto resulting from the Work.
RECORD DOCUMENTS:
6.27 CONTRACTOR shall keep one record copy of all specifications, drawings, addenda, modifications, shop
drawings, and samples at the site in good order and annotated to show all changes made during the
construction process. These shall be available to ENGINEER for examination and shall be delivered to
ENGINEER for OWNER upon completion of the Work.
SAFETY AND PROTECTION:
6.28 CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining, and supervising all safety precautions and
programs in connection with the Work. CONTRACTOR shall take all necessary precautions for the safety
of, and shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage, injury, or loss to:
6.28.1 all employees and subcontractors on the Work and other persons who may be affected thereby,
6.28.2 all the work and all materials or equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage on or off
the site, and
6.28.3 other property at the site, or adjacent thereto, including trees, shrubs, lawns, walks, pavements,
roadways, structures, and utilities not designated for removal, relocation or replacement in the
course of construction. CONTRACTOR shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules,
regulations, and orders of any public body having jurisdiction for the safety of persons or property,
or to protect them from damage, injury, or loss; and shall erect and maintain all necessary
safeguards for such safety and protection. CONTRACTOR shall notify owners of adjacent
property and utilities when prosecution of the Work may affect them. All damage, injury, or loss
to any property referred to in paragraph 6.28.2 or 6.28.3 caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or
in part, by CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any
of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, shall be remedied by
29
CONTRACTOR (except damage or loss attributable to the sole fault of Drawings or
Specifications, or solely to the acts or omissions of OWNER or ENGINEER). CONTRACTOR'S
duties and responsibilities for the safety and protection of the Work shall continue until such time
as all the Work is completed and ENGINEER has issued a notice to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR, in accordance with paragraph 14.13, that the Work is acceptable.
6.29 CONTRACTOR shall designate a responsible member of his organization at the site whose duty shall be
the prevention of accidents. This person shall be CONTRACTOR'S superintendent, unless otherwise
designated in writing by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.
EMERGENCIES:
6.30 In emergencies affecting the safety or protection of persons, or the Work, or property at the site or adjacent
thereto, CONTRACTOR, without special instruction or authorization from ENGINEER to OWNER, is
obligated to act to prevent threatened damage, injury, or loss. CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER
prompt written notice of any significant changes in the Work, or deviations from the Contract Documents
caused thereby.
SHOP DRAWINGS AND SAMPLES:
6.31 After checking and verifying all field measurements, CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER and
OWNER for review and approval, in accordance with the accepted schedule of shop drawing submissions,
five copies (unless otherwise specified in the general requirements) of all shop drawings, which shall have
been checked by, and stamped with the approval of, CONTRACTOR, and identified as ENGINEER or
OWNER may require. The data shown on the shop drawings will be complete with respect to dimensions,
design criteria, materials of construction, and like information to enable ENGINEER and OWNER to
review the information as required.
6.32 CONTRACTOR shall also submit to ENGINEER and OWNER for review and approval, with such
promptness as to cause no delay in Work, all samples required by the Contract Documents. All samples
will have been checked by, and stamped with the approval of CONTRACTOR, identified clearly as to
material, manufacturer, and any pertinent catalog numbers, and the use for which intended.
6.33 At the time of each submission, CONTRACTOR shall, in writing, call ENGINEER'S and OWNER's
attention to any deviations that the shop drawings or samples may have from the requirements of the
Contract Documents.
6.34 ENGINEER with prior approval of OWNER will review and approve, with reasonable promptness, shop
drawings and samples, but ENGINEER'S and/or OWNER's review and approval shall be only for
conformance with the design concept of the Project, and for compliance with the information given in the
Contract Documents, and shall not extend to means, methods, sequences, techniques, or procedures of
construction, or to safety precautions of programs incident thereto. The review and approval of a separate
item as such will not indicate approval of the assembly in which the item functions. CONTRACTOR shall
make any corrections required by ENGINEER or OWNER, and shall return the required number of
corrected copies of shop drawings, and resubmit new samples for review and approval. CONTRACTOR
shall direct specific attention in writing to revisions other than the corrections called for by ENGINEER or
OWNER on previous submittals. CONTRACTOR'S stamp of approval on any shop drawing or sample
shall constitute a representation to OWNER and ENGINEER that CONTRACTOR has either determined
and verified all quantities, dimensions, field construction criteria, materials catalog numbers, and similar
data, or assumes full responsibility for doing so, and that CONTRACTOR has reviewed or coordinated
each shop drawing or sample with the requirements of the Work and the Contract Documents.
30
6.35 Where a shop drawing or sample is required by the specifications, no related Work shall be commenced
until the submittal has been reviewed and approved by ENGINEER and OWNER.
6.36 ENGINEER'S and OWNER's review and approval of shop drawings or samples shall not relieve
CONTRACTOR from responsibility for any deviations from the Contract Documents unless
CONTRACTOR has, in writing, called ENGINEER'S and OWNER's attention to such deviation at the
time of submission, and ENGINEER with prior approval of OWNER has given written concurrence and
approval to the specific deviation, nor shall any concurrence or approval by ENGINEER or OWNER relive
CONTRACTOR from responsibility for errors or omissions in the shop drawings.
CONTINUING THE WORK:
6.37 CONTRACTOR shall carry on the Work and maintain the progress schedule during all disputes or
disagreements with OWNER. No Work shall be delayed or postponed pending resolution of any disputes
or disagreements, except as CONTRACTOR and OWNER may otherwise agree in writing.
INDEMNIFICATION:
6.38 To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless OWNER and
ENGINEER, and their officials, agents and employees, from and against all claims, damages, liabilities,
losses, and expenses including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and costs arising out of, or resulting from,
the performance or non-performance of the Work, and including, but not limited to, claims, damages,
liabilities, losses, or expenses attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death, or to injury to or
destruction of tangible property including the loss of use resulting therefrom or is caused, in whole or in
part, by any negligent act or omission of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly
employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of whether or not
it is caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder. Nothing in the contract shall be interpreted that the
OWNER waives its sovereign immunity granted under Colorado Governmental Immunity Act or other
applicable law.
6.39 In any and all claims against OWNER or ENGINEER, or any of their agents or employees, by any
employee of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them,
or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation under paragraph 6.38
shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation, or
benefits payable by or for CONTRACTOR or any Subcontractor under worker's or workmen's
compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.
6.40 The obligations of CONTRACTOR under paragraph 6.38 shall not extend to the liability of ENGINEER,
his agents, or employees arising out of the preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, reports,
surveys, change orders, designs, or specifications.
ARTICLE 7 — WORK BY OTHERS
7.1 OWNER may perform additional Work related to the Project by himself, or have additional work
performed by utility service companies, or let other direct contracts therefore which shall contain general
conditions similar to these. CONTRACTOR shall afford the utility service companies and the other
contractors who are parties to such direct contracts (or OWNER, if OWNER is performing the additional
work with OWNER'S employees) reasonable opportunity for the introduction and storage of materials and
equipment, and the execution of work, and shall properly connect and coordinate his work with theirs.
7.2 If any part of CONTRACTOR'S Work depends, for proper execution or results, upon the Work of any such
other contractor or utility service company (or OWNER), CONTRACTOR shall inspect and promptly
report to ENGINEER and OWNER in writing any patent or apparent defects or deficiencies in such Work
31
that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. CONTRACTOR'S failure to so report shall
constitute an acceptance of the other Work as fit and proper for integration with CONTRACTOR'S Work,
except for latent or non -apparent defects and deficiencies in the other Work.
7.3 CONTRACTOR shall do all cutting, fitting, and patching of his Work that may be required to make its
several parts come together properly and integrate with such other Work. CONTRACTOR shall not
endanger any work of others by cutting, excavating, or otherwise altering their work, and will only cut or
alter their work with the written consent of ENGINEER and the others whose work will be affected.
7.4 If the performance of additional work by other contractors or utility service companies or OWNER was not
noted in the Contract Documents, written notice thereof shall be given to CONTRACTOR prior to starting
any such additional work. If CONTRACTOR believes that the performance of such additional work by
OWNER or others involves additional expense to CONTRACTOR, or requires an extension of the Contract
Time, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
ARTICLE 8 — OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITIES
8.1 OWNER may issue communications to CONTRACTOR through ENGINEER.
8.2 In case of termination of the employment of ENGINEER, OWNER shall appoint an engineer whose status
under the Contract Documents shall be that of the former ENGINEER.
8.3 OWNER and all of its employees and agents shall have the right to full access and use of the Project site.
Such use shall not constitute acceptance of the Work or any part thereof, or waive any of OWNER'S rights
or remedies under the Contract Documents.
ARTICLE 9 — ENGINEER'S STATUS DURING CONSTRUCTION
OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE:
9.1 OWNER'S representative during the construction period shall be the manager of the ECO Trails
Department, or her designee(s), which includes ENGINEER for certain purposes as set forth in the Contract
Documents. The duties and responsibilities and the limitations of authority of ENGINEER as OWNER'S
representative during construction are set forth in the Contract Documents, and shall not be extended
without written consent of OWNER and ENGINEER. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in
all instances in the Contract Documents where ENGINEER has the authority to make decisions concerning
quality of and acceptance of the Work performed by CONTRACTOR the ENGINEER shall first discuss
such decision and proposed acceptance with OWNER and obtain its approval prior to communicating with
the CONTRACTOR. Further, in all instances in the Contract Documents where ENGINEER has the
authority to make a decision that impacts the Project budget or Contract Price or payment to the
CONTRACTOR, then Engineer shall first discuss the payment or costs with OWNER and obtain its
approval prior to approving any payment, additive or deductive Work. This paragraph is not intended as
and shall not be a waiver of ENGINEER'S responsibility for oversight of the Work.
VISITS TO SITE:
9.2 ENGINEER will make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of construction to
observe the progress and quality of the executed Work and to determine, in general, if the Work is
proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents. ENGINEER will not be required to make
exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work. ENGINEER'S
efforts will be directed toward providing for OWNER a greater degree of confidence that the completed
Work will conform to the Contract Documents. On the basis of such visits and on-site observations, as an
32
experienced and qualified design professional, ENGINEER will keep OWNER informed of the progress of
the Work, and will endeavor to guard OWNER against defects and deficiencies in the Work.
CLARIFICATIONS AND INTERPRETATIONS:
9.3 ENGINEER will issue, with reasonable promptness, such written clarifications or interpretations of the
Contract Documents (in the form of drawings or otherwise) as ENGINEER may determine necessary,
which shall be consistent with, or reasonably inferable from, the overall intent of the Contract Documents.
If CONTRACTOR believes that a written clarification or interpretation justifies an increase in the Contract
Price or Contract Time, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore, as provided in Article 11 or Article
12.
REJECTING DEFECTIVE WORK:
9.4 ENGINEER after conferring and receiving approval of OWNER will have authority to disapprove or reject
Work which is defective, and will also have authority to require special inspection or testing of the Work as
fabricated, installed, or completed.
SHOP DRAWINGS, CHANGE ORDERS, AND PAYMENTS:
9.5 In connection with ENGINEER'S responsibility for shop drawings and samples, see paragraphs 6.31
through 6.36 inclusive.
9.6 In connection with ENGINEER'S responsibilities as to change orders see Articles 10, 11, and 12.
9.7 In connection with ENGINEER'S responsibilities in respect to applications for payment, etc., see Article
14.
PROJECT REPRESENTATION:
9.8 ENGINEER may utilize Resident Project Representative to assist ENGINEER in observing the
performance of the Work. The duties, responsibilities, and limitations of authority of any such Resident
Project Representative and assistants will be as provided in the Contract Documents. If OWNER
designates another agent to represent him at the site who is not ENGINEER'S agent, the duties,
responsibilities, and limitations of authority of such other person will be as provided in the Contract
Documents.
DECISIONS ON DISAGREEMENTS:
9.9 ENGINEER will be the initial interpreter of the requirements of the Contract Documents and after first
conferring with OWNER will be the judge of the acceptability of the Work thereunder. Claims, disputes,
and other matters relating to the acceptability of the Work, or the interpretation of the requirements of the
Contract Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the Work, shall be referred initially to
ENGINEER in writing with a request for a formal decision which ENGINEER will render in writing within
a reasonable time.
LIMITATIONS ON ENGINEER'S RESPONSIBILITIES:
9.10 Neither ENGINEER'S or OWNER's authority to act under this Article 9, or elsewhere in the Contract
Documents, nor any decision made by ENGINEER or OWNER in good faith either to exercise or not
exercise such authority shall give rise to any duty or responsibility of ENGINEER or OWNER to
CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or distributor, or any of their
agents or employees, or any other person performing any of the Work.
33
9.11 Whenever, in the Contract Documents, the terms "as ordered", "as directed", "as required", "as allowed",
or terms of like effect or import are used, or the adjectives "reasonable", "suitable", "acceptable", "proper",
or "satisfactory", or adjectives of like effect or import are used to describe requirement, direction, review,
or judgment of ENGINEER as to the Work, it is intended that such requirement direction, review, or
judgment will be solely to evaluate the Work for compliance with the Contract Documents (unless there is
a specific statement indicating otherwise). The use of any such term or adjective never indicates that
ENGINEER shall have authority to supervise or direct performance of the Work, or authority to undertake
responsibility contrary to the provisions of paragraphs 9.12 or 9.13.
9.12 ENGINEER and OWNER will not be responsible for CONTRACTOR'S means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures of construction, or the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, and
ENGINEER and OWNER will not be responsible for CONTRACTOR'S failure to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.13 ENGINEER and OWNER will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of CONTRACTOR, or of any
Subcontractor, or of the agents or employees of any CONTRACTOR or Subcontractor, or of any other
persons at the site or otherwise performing any of the Work.
ARTICLE 10 — CHANGES IN THE WORK
10.1 Without invalidating the Agreement, OWNER may, at any time or from time to time, order additions,
deletions, or revisions in the Work; these will be authorized by change orders. Upon receipt of a change
order, CONTRACTOR shall proceed with the Work involved. All such Work shall be executed under the
applicable conditions of the Contract Documents. If any change order causes an increase or decrease in the
Contract Price, or an extension or shortening of the Contract Time, an equitable adjustment will be made as
provided in Article 11 or Article 12 on the basis of a claim made by either party.
10.2 OWNER, or ENGINEER with approval of OWNER, may authorize minor changes in the Work, not
involving an adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Time, which are consistent with the overall
intent of the Contract Documents. These may be accomplished by a field order, and shall be binding on
OWNER, and also on CONTRACTOR who shall perform the change promptly. If CONTRACTOR
believes that a field order justifies an increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time, CONTRACTOR may
make a claim therefore as provided in Article 11 or Article 12.
10.3 Additional Work performed without authorization of a change order will not entitle CONTRACTOR to an
increase in the Contract Price, or an extension of the Contract Time, except in the case of an emergency as
provided in paragraph 6.30, and except as provided in paragraph 13.9.
10.4 OWNER may execute appropriate change orders prepared by ENGINEER covering changes in the Work
which are required by OWNER, or required because of unforeseen physical conditions or emergencies, or
because of uncovering Work found not to be defective, or as provided in paragraphs 11.10 or 11.11.
10.5 If notice of any change affecting the general scope of the Work or change in the Contract Price is required
by the provisions of any bond to be given to the surety, it will be CONTRACTOR'S responsibility to so
notify the surety, and the amount of each applicable bond shall be adjusted accordingly. CONTRACTOR
shall furnish proof of such adjustment to OWNER.
34
ARTICLE 11— CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE
11.1 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 his expense without change in the Contract Price.
11.2 The Contract Price may only be changed by a change order. Any claim for an increase in the Contract
Price shall be based on written notice delivered to OWNER and ENGINEER within two (2) days of the
occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim. Any change in the Contract Price resulting from any such
claim shall first be approved by ENGINEER and OWNER before being incorporated in a change order.
11.3 No change orders or other form of order or directive which requires additional compensable Work to be
performed may be issued or be effective unless accompanied by a written assurance to the CONTRACTOR
that lawful appropriations to cover the costs of the additional Work have been made.
11.4 The value of any Work covered by a change order, or of any claim for an increase or decrease in the
Contract Price, shall be determined in one of the following ways:
11.4.1 Where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by
application of unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (subject to the provisions of
paragraph 11.10).
11.4.2 By mutual acceptance of a lump sum.
11.4.3 On the basis of the cost of the Work (determined as provided in paragraphs 11.5 and 11.6).
11.5 The term "Cost of the Work" means the sum of any and all costs necessarily incurred and paid by
CONTRACTOR in the proper performance of the Work. Except as otherwise may be agreed to in
writing by OWNER, such costs shall be in amounts no higher than those prevailing in the locality
of the Project, shall include only the following items, and shall not include any of the costs
itemized in paragraph 11.6:
11.5.1 Payroll costs for employees in the direct employ of CONTRACTOR in the performance of the
Work under schedules of job classifications agreed upon by OWNER and CONTRACTOR.
Payroll costs for employees not employed full time on the Work shall be apportioned on the basis
of their time spent on the Work. Payroll costs shall include, but not be limited to, salaries and
wages, plus the cost of fringe benefits which shall include social security contributions,
unemployment, excise and payroll taxes, worker's or workmen's compensation, health and
retirement benefits, bonuses, sick leave, vacation and holiday pay applicable thereto. Such
employees shall include superintendents and foremen at the site. The expenses of performing
Work after regular working hours, or on Sunday or legal holidays, shall be included in the above
only to the extent authorized by OWNER.
11.5.2 Cost of all materials and equipment furnished and incorporated in the Work, including costs of
transportation and storage thereof, and manufacturers' field services required in connection
therewith. All cash discounts shall accrue to CONTRACTOR unless OWNER deposits funds with
CONTRACTOR with which to make payments, in which case, the cash discounts shall accrue to
OWNER. All trade discounts, rebates and refunds, and all returns from sale of surplus materials
and equipment shall accrue to OWNER, and CONTRACTOR shall make provisions so that they
may be obtained.
11.5.3 Payments made by CONTRACTOR to the Subcontractors for Work performed by Subcontractors.
If required by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall obtain competitive bids from Subcontractors
35
acceptable to CONTRACTOR, and shall deliver such bids to OWNER, who will then determine,
with the advice of ENGINEER, which bids will be accepted. If a subcontract provides that the
Subcontractor is to be paid on the basis of Cost of the Work, the Subcontractor's Cost of the Work
shall be determined in the same manner as CONTRACTOR'S Cost of the Work. All Subcontracts
shall be subject to the other provisions of the Contract Documents insofar as applicable.
11.5.4 Supplemental costs including the following:
11.5.4.1 The proportion of necessary transportation, travel, and subsistence expenses of
CONTRACTOR'S employees incurred in discharge of duties connected with the Work.
11.5.4.2 Cost, including transportation and maintenance, of all materials, supplies, equipment,
machines, appliances, office and temporary facilities at the site, and hand tools not owned by
the workmen, which are consumed in the performance of the Work, and cost less market
value of such items used but not consumed which remain the property of CONTRACTOR.
11.5.4.3 Rentals of all construction equipment and machinery, and the parts thereof, whether rented
from CONTRACTOR or others in accordance with rental agreements approved by OWNER
with the advice of ENGINEER, and the costs of transportation, loading, unloading,
installation, dismantling and removal thereof, all in accordance with terms of said rental
agreements. The rental of any such equipment, machinery or parts shall cease when the use
thereof is no longer necessary for the Work.
11.5.4.4 Intentionally omitted.
11.5.4.5 Intentionally ornitted.
11.5.4.6 Intentionally omitted.
11.5.4.7 The cost of utilities, fuel, and sanitary facilities at the site.

partnership and sole proprietorship), general managers, engineers, architects, estimators, lawyers,
auditors, accountants, purchasing and contracting agents, expediters, timekeepers, clerks, and other
personnel employed by CONTRACTOR whether at the site or in his principal or a branch office
for general administration of the Work, and not specifically included in the agreed upon schedule
of job classifications referred to in subparagraph 11.5.1.
11.6.2 Expenses of CONTRACTOR'S principal and branch office, other than CONTRACTOR'S office at
the site.

the Contract Documents to purchase and maintain the same (except for additional bonds and
insurance required because of changes in the Work).
11.6.5 Costs due to the negligent performance or non-performance of CONTRACTOR, any subcontractor,
or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or for whose acts any of them may be
liable, including, but not limited to, the correction of defective Work, disposal of materials or
equipment wrongly supplied, and making good any damage to property.
11.6.6 Other overhead or general expense costs of any kind, and the costs of any item not specifically and
expressly included in paragraph 11.5.
CONTRACTOR'S FEE:
11.7 Intentionally omitted.
11.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by CONTRACTOR to OWNER for any such change which results in a
net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease. When both additions and credits are
involved in any one change, the combined adjustment to overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of
the net increase or decrease in allowable costs, if any.
ADJUSTMENT OF UNIT QUANTITIES:
11.9 Whenever the cost of any Work is to be determined based upon unit price, CONTRACTOR will submit, in
form acceptable to ENGINEER, an itemized cost breakdown together with supporting data.
11.10 Where the quantity of Work with respect to any item that is covered by a unit price differs materially and
significantly from the quantity of such Work indicated in the Contract Documents, an appropriate change
order (additive or deductive) may be issued on recommendation of ENGINEER with written approval of
OWNER. In no event will the unit price bid by CONTRACTOR be modified, but the quantity of any item
may be increased or decreased as set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the
change modify the not to exceed the Contract Price or otherwise be modified without a change order
approved by OWNER.
CASH ALLOWANCES:
11.11 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 done by such Subcontractors,
manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers, or distributors, and for such sums within the limit of the allowances
as may be acceptable to ENGINEER and OWNER. Upon final payment, the Contract Price shall be
adjusted as required, and an appropriate change order issued. CONTRACTOR agrees that the original
Contract Price includes such sums as CONTRACTOR deems proper for costs and profit on account of cash
allowances. No demand for additional cost or profit in connection therewith will be valid.
ARTICLE 12 — CHANGE OF THE CONTRACT TIME
12.1 The Contract Time may only be changed by a change order. Any claim for an extension in the Contract
Time shall be based on written notice delivered to OWNER and ENGINEER within two (2) days of the
occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim. Any change in the Contract Time resulting from any such
claim shall be incorporated in a change order.
37
12.2 All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Agreement. The provisions of
Articles 11 and 12 are CONTRACTOR'S sole remedies for delay by any cause whatsoever, including acts
of OWNER.
ARTICLE 13 — WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE; TESTS AND INSPECTION• CORRECTION REMOVAL
OR ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK
WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE:

13.3 CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER and OWNER timely notice of readiness of work for all required
inspections, tests or approvals.
13.4 If any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, code, or order of any public body having jurisdiction requires any
Work (or part thereof) to specifically be inspected, tested, or approved, CONTRACTOR shall assume full
responsibility therefore, pay all costs in connection therewith, and furnish ENGINEER and OWNER the
required certificates of inspection, testing, or approval. CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for and
shall pay all costs in connection with any inspection or testing required in connection with OWNER'S or
ENGINEER'S acceptance of a manufacturer, fabricator, supplier or distributor of materials or equipment
proposed to be incorporated in the Work, or of materials or equipment submitted for approval prior to
CONTRACTOR'S purchase thereof for incorporation of the Work. The cost of all other inspections, tests,
and approvals required by the Contract Documents shall be paid by OWNER (unless otherwise specified).
13.5 Any inspections, tests, or approvals, other than those required by law, ordinance, rule, regulation, code, or
order of any public body having jurisdiction, shall be performed by organizations acceptable to OWNER
and CONTRACTOR (or by ENGINEER if so specified).
13.6 If any Work that is to be inspected, tested, or approved is covered without written concurrence of
ENGINEER and OWNER, it must, if requested by ENGINEER or OWNER, be uncovered for observation.
Such uncovering shall be at CONTRACTOR'S expense, unless CONTRACTOR has given ENGINEER
and OWNER timely notice of CONTRACTOR'S intention to cover such Work and ENGINEER or
OWNER has not acted with reasonable promptness in response to such notice.
13.7 Neither observations by ENGINEER or OWNER nor inspections, tests, or approvals by others shall relieve
CONTRACTOR from his obligations to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
38
UNCOVERING WORK:
13.8 If any Work is covered contrary to the written request of ENGINEER or OWNER, it must, if requested by
ENGINEER or OWNER, be uncovered for ENGINEER'S and OWNER's observation and replaced at
CONTRACTOR'S expense.
13.9 If ENGINEER or OWNER considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by
ENGINEER or OWNER, or inspected or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at ENGINEER'S or OWNER's
request, shall uncover, expose, or otherwise make available for observation, inspection, or testing as
ENGINEER or OWNER may require, that portion of the Work in question, furnish all necessary labor,
material, and equipment. If it is found that such Work is defective, CONTRACTOR shall bear all the
expenses of such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, and testing of satisfactory reconstruction,
including compensation for additional professional services, and an appropriate deductive change order
shall be issued. 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 both, directly attributable to such
uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, testing, and reconstruction.
OWNER MAY STOP THE WORK:
13.10 If the Work is defective, or CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen or suitable materials
or equipment, OWNER may order CONTRACTOR to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the
cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of OWNER to stop the Work shall not give
rise to any duty on the part of OWNER to exercise this right for the benefit of CONTRACTOR or any
other party.
CORRECTION OR REMOVAL OF DEFECTIVE WORK:
13.11 If required by ENGINEER or OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to OWNER and as
specified by ENGINEER or OWNER, either correct any defective Work, whether or not fabricated,
installed, or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by ENGINEER or OWNER, remove it from the
site and replace it with non -defective Work in a manner acceptable to the ENGINEER and OWNER.
TWO YEAR CORRECTION PERIOD:
13.12 If, within two years after the date of substantial completion, or such longer period of time as may be
prescribed by law, or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents,
or by any other specific provision of the Contract Documents, any Work is found to be defective,
CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to OWNER, and in accordance with OWNER'S written
instructions, either correct such defective Work, or, if it has been rejected by OWNER, remove it from the
site, and replace it with non -defective Work. If CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply with the terms
of such instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, OWNER
may have the defective Work corrected or the rejected Work removed and replaced, and all direct and
indirect costs of such removal and replacement, including compensation for additional professional
services, shall be paid by CONTRACTOR.
13.13 Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected or removed and
replaced under this Paragraph 13.13.12, 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
ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK:
39
13.14If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to
ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment,) prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so. In such case, if
acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment, a change order shall be issued
incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Price; or, if the acceptance occurs after such
recommendation, an appropriate amount shall be paid by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.
OWNER MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK:
13.15 If CONTRACTOR fails, within a reasonable time after written notice of ENGINEER and OWNER, to
proceed to correct defective Work, or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by ENGINEER or
OWNER in accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if CONTRACTOR fails to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents (including any requirements of the progress schedule), OWNER
may, after seven days written notice to CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency. In
exercising his rights under this paragraph OWNER shall proceed expeditiously. To the extent necessary to
complete corrective and remedial action, OWNER may exclude CONTRACTOR from all part of the site,
take possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend CONTRACTOR'S services related thereto, take
possession of CONTRACTOR'S tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery at the site, and
incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site, or for which OWNER has paid
CONTRACTOR, but which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow OWNER, OWNER'S
representatives, agents, and employees such access to the site as may be necessary to enable OWNER to
exercise his rights under this paragraph. All direct and indirect costs of OWNER in exercising such rights
shall be charged against CONTRACTOR in an amount verified by ENGINEER, and a change order shall
be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents and a reduction in the Contract
Price. Such direct and indirect costs shall include, in particular but without limitation, compensation for
additional professional services required, and all costs of repair and 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 because of any delay in
performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by OWNER of OWNER'S rights hereunder.
ARTICLE 14 — PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION
SCHEDULES:
14.1 At least ten days prior to submitting the first application for a progress payment, CONTRACTOR shall
(except as otherwise specified in the general requirements) submit to ENGINEER and OWNER a progress
schedule, a final schedule of shop drawing submissions, and, where applicable, a schedule of values of the
Work. These schedules shall be satisfactory in form and substance to ENGINEER and OWNER. The
schedule of values shall include quantities and unit prices aggregating the Contract Price, and shall
subdivide the Work into component parts in sufficient detail to serve as the basis for progress payments
during construction. Upon acceptance of the schedule of values by ENGINEER and OWNER, it shall be
incorporated into a form of application for payment acceptable to ENGINEER and OWNER.
APPLICATION FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT:
14.2 At least ten days before each progress payment falls due (but not more often than once a month),
CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER and OWNER for review an application for payment filled out
and signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the date of the application, and
accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the Contract Documents, and also as
ENGINEER or OWNER may reasonably require. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and
equipment not incorporated in the Work, but delivered and suitably stored at the site or at another location
agreed to in writing, the application for payment shall also be accompanied by such data, satisfactory to
40
OWNER, as will establish OWNER'S title to the material and equipment, and protect OWNER'S interest
therein, including applicable insurance. Each subsequent application for payment shall include an affidavit
of CONTRACTOR stating that all previous progress payments received on account of the Work have been
applied to discharge in full all of CONTRACTOR'S obligations reflected in prior applications for payment.
The amount of retainage with respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the Agreement.
CONTRACTOR'S WARRANTY OF TITLE:
14.3 CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any
application for payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to OWNER at the time of
payment free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests, and encumbrances (hereafter in these General
Conditions referred to as "Liens").
REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT:
14.4 ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of each application for payment, either indicate in writing a
recommendation of payment and present the application to OWNER, or return the application to
CONTRACTOR indicating in writing ENGINEER'S reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the
latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the application. OWNER
shall, within twenty days of presentation to him of the application for payment with ENGINEER'S
recommendation, pay CONTRACTOR the amount recommended.
14.5 ENGINEER'S recommendation of any payment requested in an application for payment will constitute a
representation by ENGINEER to OWNER that, based on ENGINEER'S on-site observations of the Work
in progress as an experienced and qualified design professional, and on ENGINEER'S review of the
application for payment, and the accompanying data and schedules, the Work has progressed to the point
indicated; that, to the best of ENGINEER'S knowledge, information, and belief, the quality of the Work is
in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning Project
upon substantial completion, and to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents
and any qualifications stated in the recommendation); and, that CONTRACTOR is entitled to payment of
the amount recommended. However, by recommending any such payment, ENGINEER will not thereby
be deemed to have represented that exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections have been made to check
the quality or the quantity of Work, or that the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures of
construction have been reviewed, or that any examination has been made to ascertain how or for what
purpose CONTRACTOR has used the monies paid or to be paid to CONTRACTOR on account of the
contract price, or that title to any Work, materials, or equipment has passed to OWNER free and clear of
any Liens.
14.6 ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment will constitute an additional representation by
ENGINEER to OWNER that the conditions precedent to CONTRACTOR'S being entitled to final payment
as set forth in paragraph 14.13 have been fulfilled.
14.7 ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole, or any part of any payment if, in his opinion, it would be
incorrect to make such representations to OWNER. He may also refuse to recommend any such payment,
or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, nullify
any such payment previously recommended to such extent as may be necessary in ENGINEER'S opinion to
protect OWNER from loss because:
14.7.1 the work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or replacement,
14.7.2 written claims have been made against OWNER, or Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work,
41
14.7.3 the Contract Price has been reduced because of modifications,
14.7.4 OWNER has been required to correct defective Work, or complete the Work in accordance with
paragraph 13.14,
14.7.5 of CONTRACTOR'S unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents, or
14.7.6 CONTRACTOR'S failure to make payment to Subcontractors, or for labor, materials, or
equipment.
SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION:
14.8 When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, CONTRACTOR shall, in
writing to OWNER and ENGINEER, certify that the entire Work is substantially complete, and request that
ENGINEER issue a certificate of substantial completion. Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of
completion. If ENGINEER after conferring with OWNER does not consider the Work substantially
complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in writing giving his reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
after conferring with OWNER considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will prepare and
deliver to OWNER a tentative certificate of substantial completion which shall fix the date of substantial
completion. There shall be attached to the certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or corrected
before final payment. OWNER shall have seven days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which
he may make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions of the certificate or attached list. If,
after considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that the Work is not substantially complete,
ENGINEER will, within fourteen days after submission of the tentative certificate to OWNER, notify
CONTRACTOR in writing stating his reasons therefor. If, after consideration of OWNER'S objections,
ENGINEER considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will, within said fourteen days,
execute and deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of substantial completion (with
a revised tentative list of items to be completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the tentative
certificate as he believes justified after consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the time of
delivery of tentative certificate of substantial completion, ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to division of responsibilities pending final payment
between OWNER and CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, heat,
utilities, and insurance. Unless OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform
ENGINEER prior to his issuing the definitive certificate of substantial completion, ENGINEER'S aforesaid
recommendation will be binding on OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
14.9 OWNER shall have the right to exclude CONTRACTOR from the Work after the date of substantial
completion, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct items on
the tentative list.
PARTIAL UTILIZATION:
14.10 Use by OWNER of completed portions of the Work maybe accomplished prior to substantial completion
of all the Work subject to the following:
14.10.1 OWNER, at any time, may request CONTRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use any part
of the Work which OWNER believes to be substantially complete and which may be so used
without significant interference with construction of the other parts of the Work. If
CONTRACTOR agrees, CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that said part of
the Work is substantially complete, and request ENGINEER to issue a certificate of substantial
42
completion for that part of the Work. Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine
its status of completion. If ENGINEER after conferring with OWNER considers that part of the
Work to be substantially complete, ENGINEER will execute, and deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR, a certificate to that effect, fixing the date of substantial completion as to that part
of the Work, attaching thereto a tentative list of items to be completed or corrected before final
payment. Prior to issuing a certificate of substantial completion as to part of the Work,
ENGINEER after conferring with OWNER will deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a written
recommendation as to the division of responsibilities pending final payment between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, utilities, and insurance
for that part of the Work which shall become binding upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR at the
time of issuing the definitive certificate of substantial completion as to that part of the Work, unless
OWNER and CONTRACTOR shall have otherwise agreed in writing. OWNER shall have the
right to exclude CONTRACTOR from any part of the Work which ENGINEER has so certified to
be substantially complete, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete
or correct items on the tentative list.
14.10.2 In lieu of the issuance of a certificate of substantial completion as to part of the work, OWNER
may take over operation of a facility constituting part of the Work, whether or not it is substantially
complete, if such facility is functionally and separately usable; provided that prior to any such
takeover, OWNER and CONTRACTOR have agreed as to the division of responsibilities between
OWNER and CONTRACTOR for security, operation, safety, maintenance, correction period, heat,
utilities, and insurance with respect to such facility.
14.10.3 No occupancy of part of the Work, or taking over of operations of a facility will be accomplished
before the insurers providing the property insurance have acknowledged notice thereof and in
writing effected any changes in coverage necessitated thereby. The insurers providing the property
insurance shall consent by endorsement on the policy or policies, but the property insurance shall
not be cancelled or permitted to lapse on account of any such partial use or occupancy.
FINAL INSPECTION:
14.11 Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the Work is complete, ENGINEER will make a final
inspection with OWNER and CONTRACTOR, and will notify CONTRACTOR in writing of all particulars
in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. CONTRACTOR shall
immediately take such measures as are necessary to remedy such deficiencies.
FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT:
14.12 After CONTRACTOR has completed all such corrections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and OWNER,
and delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds, certificates of
inspection, marked -up record documents, and other documents, all as required by the Contract Documents,
and after ENGINEER has indicated that the Work is acceptable (subject to the provisions of paragraph
14.14), CONTRACTOR may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress
payments. The final application for payment shall be accompanied by all documentation called for in the
Contract Documents, and such other data and schedules as ENGINEER may reasonably require. Payment
shall be processed in accordance with C.R.S. 24-91-103 and C.R.S. 38-26-107. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, CONTRACTOR will provide complete and legally effective lien releases or waivers satisfactory
to OWNER. In lieu thereof, and as approved by OWNER, CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or
releases in full; an affidavit of CONTRACTOR that the releases and receipts include all labor, services,
material, and equipment for which lien could be filed, and that all payrolls, material, and equipment bills,
and other indebtedness connected with the Work, for which OWNER or his property might in any way be
responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied; and consent of the surety, if any, to final payment. If
43
any subcontractor, manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or distributor fails to furnish a release or receipt in
full, CONTRACTOR may furnish a bond or other collateral satisfactory to OWNER to indemnify
OWNER.
FINAL PAYMENT AND ACCEPTANCE:
14.13 If, after conferring with OWNER and on the basis of ENGINEER'S observation of the Work during
construction and final inspection, and ENGINEER'S review of the final application for payment and
accompanying documentation, all as required by Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that the
Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR has fulfilled all of his obligations under the Contract
Documents, ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of the final application for payment, indicate in
writing his recommendation of payment, and present the application to OWNER for payment. Thereupon,
ENGINEER will give written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject
to the provisions of paragraph 14.15. Otherwise, ENGINEER will return the application to
CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend final payment, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections, and resubmit the application. If the application and
accompanying documentation are appropriate as to form and substance, OWNER shall, after receipt
thereof, pay CONTRACTOR in accordance with the payment procedures set forth in the Agreement, the
amount recommended by ENGINEER.
CONTRACTOR'S CONTINUING OBLIGATION:
14.14 CONTRACTOR'S obligation to perform and complete the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents shall be absolute. Neither recommendation of any progress or final payment by ENGINEER,
nor the issuance of a certificate of substantial completion, nor any payment by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR under the Contract Documents, nor any use or occupancy of the Work or any part thereof
by OWNER, nor any act of acceptance by OWNER, nor any failure to do so, nor the issuance of a notice of
acceptability by ENGINEER pursuant to paragraph 14.13, nor any correction of defective Work by
OWNER shall constitute an acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract documents or a
release of CONTRACTOR'S obligation to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
WAIVER OF CLAIMS:
14.15 The making and acceptance of final payment shall constitute:
14.15.1 a waiver of all claims by OWNER against CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from unsettled
liens, from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursuant to paragraph 14.11, or from
failure to comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees specified
therein; however, it shall not constitute a waiver by OWNER of any rights in respect of
CONTRACTOR'S continuing obligations under the Contract Documents; and
14.15.2 a waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR against OWNER other than those previously made in
writing and still unsettled.
ARTICLE 15 — SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION
OWNER MAY SUSPEND WORK:
15.1 OWNER may, at any time and without cause, suspend the Work, or any portion thereof, for a period of not
more than ninety days, by notice in writing to CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER which shall fix the date on
44
which Work shall be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the Work on the date so fixed.
CONTRACTOR may, at the OWNER'S sole discretion, be allowed an increase in the Contract Price, or an
extension of the Contract Time, or both, directly attributable to any suspension, if he makes a claim
therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
15.2 Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:
15.2.1 if CONTRACTOR is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent,
15.2.2 if CONTRACTOR makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors,
15.2.3 if a trustee or receiver is appointed for CONTRACTOR or for any of CONTRACTOR'S property,
15.2.4 if CONTRACTOR files a petition to take advantage of any debtor's act, or to reorganize under the
bankruptcy or similar laws,
15.2.5 if CONTRACTOR repeatedly fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen, or suitable materials or
equipment,
15.2.6 if CONTRACTOR repeatedly fails to make prompt payments to Subcontractors, or for labor,
materials, or equipment,
15.2.7 if CONTRACTOR disregards laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, or orders of any public body
having jurisdiction,
15.2.8 if CONTRACTOR disregards the authority of ENGINEER, or
15.2.9 if CONTRACTOR otherwise violates, in any substantial way, any provisions of the Contract
Documents,
OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR and his surety seven days written notice, terminate the
services of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR from the site, and take possession of the Work and
of all CONTRACTOR'S tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery at the site, and use the
same to the full extent they could be used by CONTRACTOR (without liability to CONTRACTOR for
trespass or conversion), incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site, or for which
OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as OWNER may
deem expedient. In such case, CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until
the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds the direct and indirect costs of
completing the Work, including compensation for additional professional services, such excess shall be
paid to CONTRACTOR. If such costs exceed such unpaid balance, CONTRACTOR shall pay the
difference to OWNER. Such costs incurred by OWNER shall be verified by ENGINEER and incorporated
in a change order, but in finishing the Work, OWNER shall not be required to obtain the lowest figure for
the Work performed.
15.3 Where CONTRACTOR'S services have been so terminated by OWNER, the termination shall not affect
any rights of OWNER against CONTRACTOR then existing, or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of monies due CONTRACTOR by OWNER will not release CONTRACTOR rom
liability.
15.4 Upon seven days written notice to CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER, OWNER may, without cause and
without prejudice to any other right or remedy, terminate the Agreement. In such case, CONTRACTOR
shall be paid for all Work executed and expenses sustained through the date of termination.
45
CONTRACTOR MAY STOP WORK OR TERMINATE:
15.5 If, through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety days
by OWNER, or under an order of court or other public authority, or ENGINEER fails to act on any
application for payment within thirty days after it is submitted, or OWNER fails for thirty days to pay
CONTRACTOR any sum finally determined to be due, then CONTRACTOR may, upon seven days
written notice to OWNER and ENGINEER, terminate the Agreement and recover from OWNER payment
for all Work executed through the date of termination.
ARTICLE 16 — MISCELLANEOUS
GIVING NOTICE:
16.1 Whenever any provision of the Contract Documents requires the giving of written notice, it shall 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 at or sent by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, to the last business address known to the giver of the notice.
COMPUTATION OF TIME:
16.2 When any period of time is referred to in the Contract Documents by days, it shall be calendar days and be
computed to exclude the first and include the last day of such period. If the last day of any such period falls
on a Saturday or Sunday, or on a day made a legal holiday by the law of the applicable jurisdiction, such
day shall be omitted from the computation.
GENERAL:
16.3 Should OWNER or CONTRACTOR suffer injury or damage to his person or property because of any
error, omission or act of the other party or of any of the other party's employees or agents, or others for
whose acts the other party is legally liable, claim shall be made in writing to the other party within a
reasonable time of the first observances of such injury or damage.
16.4 The duties and obligations imposed by these General Conditions and the rights and remedies available
hereunder to the parties hereto, and, in particular, but without limitation, the warranties, guarantees, and
obligations imposed upon CONTRACTOR by paragraphs 6.38, 13.1, 13.11, 13.14, 14.3, and 15.2, and all
of the rights and remedies available to OWNER and ENGINEER thereunder, shall be in addition to, and
shall not be construed in any way as a limitation of, any rights and remedies available to any or all of them
which are otherwise imposed or available by law or contract, by special warranty or guarantee, or by other
provisions of this paragraph shall be as effective as if repeated specifically in the Contract Documents in
connection with each particular duty, obligations, right and remedy to which they apply. All
representations, warranties, and guarantees made in the Contract Documents shall survive final payment
and termination or completion of this Agreement.

LATE FALL, WINTER ANIS SPRING SPECIAL
PROVISIONS FOR WORK WITHIN C1DOT ROW
It's that time of year again when work within the Right of Way (ROOT)
becomes a special concern. Due to Northwest Colorado's unpredictable
weather, work in the ROW can create several types of hazards for the traveling
public, contractors, and their personnel. The condition of the highway can
change quickly. Mud tracked onto the highway by equipment, or ice and
snowpack are just a few of the conditions that make the roadway more
hazardous for all concerned. The terrain within the ROW must be kept clear of
hazards as well. Holes, trenches, equipment and materials can make the terrain
"unrecoverable" for a driver should
his/her vehicle leave the highway.
Activities ►iiust be shut down when the roadway is other than dry. The use
of frozen materials for backfilling will only lead to settlement. The contractor
must make extra effort to compact the excavation. In the spring, any settlement
of backfill shall be repaired. The re -vegetation shall take place yet this fall or
early next spring.
