Investment
The following cost schedule outlines the costs associated with each project step identified in
the technical proposal. We have reduced our originally proposed rates to accomplish the
submission of our Best and Final Offer.
Due to the fact that we cannot predict the number of candidates that will participate in the
promotional processes, as data has not been provided, and that the cost associated with using
national assessors would be significant, we will opt to use assessors from communities
surrounding Augusta to avoid air travel and hotel expenses. Where necessary (especially in the
case of the Battalion Chief process), we may select assessors from the Atlanta area from large
agencies with whom we frequently work. Any fees associated with travel for these assessors
will be covered by I/O Solutions’ and will be drawn from our proposed consultant travel
budget. We will still rely on the Augusta Fire Department to provide a suitable facility for all
SME meetings and assessments.

EXHIBIT 1 - FORT GORDON SUPPORT SERVICES
Summary of key elements:
Task Duration: 12 months
WATER SYSTEM CONDITION ASSESSMENT.
PROGRAM MANAGER will establish a condition assessment program to define the system in terms
of age, functional state and condition, and to prioritize maintenance and system upgrades. These
assessments provide the necessary data to run the rehabilitation assessment model and the water
system hydraulic model. The rehabilitation assessment model will identify cyclical replacement
schedules for facilities that have nearly reached the end of their useful lives, and will prioritize these
facilities for near-term renewal.
WATER SYSTEM CAPACITY ANALYSIS
The water distribution system hydraulic model will be created with the inventory data and used to
model the flows in the water distribution system. All electronic input files (inventory, system water
demands, fire flows, etc.) will either be used from existing water system hydraulic model (if one
exists) or the files will be built based on water demand, inventory, and fire flow data. The model input
files shall be updated based upon the new inventory and GPS/GIS data for all main water pipes that
are 6-inch diameter and larger.
DEVELOP WATER SYSTEM MASTER PLAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE PLAN
The plan we will develop for Fort Gordon will enable it to cost-effectively address anticipated growth
and O&M concerns. A secondary objective of this project will be to create a Master Plan that
proactively addresses regulatory concerns and storage requirements. The output of the Master Plan
will be a prioritized list of capital upgrades and renewal and replacement projects that will be used in
the first Annual Capital Upgrades and Renewals and Replacements Plan.
WASTEWATER SYSTEM CONDITION ASSESSMENT
PROGRAM MANAGER will establish a condition assessment program to define the system in terms
of age, functional state and condition, and to prioritize maintenance and system upgrades. These
assessments provide the necessary data to run the rehabilitation assessment model and the sewer
system hydraulic model. The rehabilitation assessment model will identify cyclical replacement
schedules for facilities that have nearly reached the end of their useful lives, and will prioritize these
facilities for near-term renewal.
Condition Assessment will include closed circuit television (CCTV) inspection of main line and sewer
laterals, and manhole inspection, as discussed in the following paragraphs. A deficiency analysis
report will be generated upon completion of the inventory, condition assessment studies, and
assessment of the future wastewater system requirements for Fort Gordon. The report will provide
the condition assessment results and analyze and identify deficiencies in system capacity,
compliance, efficiency, and reliability. These deficiencies then will be used to develop the first Annual
Capital Upgrades and Renewals and Replacements Plan.
SEWER SYSTEM CAPACITY ANALYSIS
A sewer system hydraulic model will be constructed and used to model the flows in the wastewater
collection system. Creating the sewer system hydraulic model will include surveying the sewer
system, developing sewer system inventory and GIS, performing flow monitoring, and building the
hydraulic model.
DEVELOP WASTEWATER SYSTEM MASTER PLAN
The plan we will develop for Fort Gordon will enable it to cost-effectively address anticipated growth
and O&M concerns. A secondary objective of this project will be to create a Master Plan that
Attachment number 1

proactively addresses regulatory concerns, such as the System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance
requirements of the forthcoming EPA’s CMOM regulation. The output of the Master Plan will be a
prioritized list of capital upgrades and renewal and replacement projects that will be used in the
Annual Capital Upgrades and Renewals and Replacements Plan.
Fort Gordon’s existing facilities require review and evaluation to determine improvements and system
modifications that will be required in the future to accommodate planned development, optimize
system performance, and maximize operational efficiencies.

EXHIBIT 2 - SECURITY AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE SUPPORT SERVICES
Summary of key elements:
SECURITY ASSESSMENT
PROGRAM MANAGER will complete a comprehensive security assessment for AUD’s water and
wastewater assets, including treatment plants and conveyance system infrastructure. The
assessment will be completed based primarily on DHS protocols and guidance for critical
infrastructure. The assessment will include current status of previous Vulnerability Assessment (VA)
recommendations and subsequent implementation. Updated facility maps for evacuation and other
security purposes will be included in the assessment. Each asset, or group of assets, will receive a
score and rank based on measures of risk and consequence established by AUD management and
community-based needs. Input will be solicited from ARC EMA and AUD’s critical customers. Profiles
of critical customer needs and resources will be developed to facilitate decision making for potential
security upgrades. Recommendations to reduce risk through future security upgrades,
protocol/practice adjustments, and other measures will be provided for each asset or group of assets.
Task Deliverable: Security Assessment Report (Draft and Final)
Task Duration: 8 months
CONTINUITY OF OPERATIONS/CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT (COOP/COG) PLAN
PROGRAM MANAGER will assist AUD with development and implementation of a COOP/COG Plan
following DHS/FEMA Office of National Security Coordination assessment and planning guidance.
The COOP/COG Plan will be prepared in accordance with direction from Presidential Decision
Directive 67 and subsequent implementing guidance in Federal Preparedness Circular 65, dated
June 15, 2004. The Plan will also be consistent with the National Response Plan (NRP) and
requirements associated with the National Incident Management System (NIMS).
COOP/COG planning is an effort to assure that the capability exists to continue essential agency
functions throughout any potential emergency. The COOP/COG Plan will establish AUD policy and
guidance to ensure the execution of mission-essential functions and to direct the relocation of
personnel and resources to an alternate facility capable of supporting operations. The Plan will outline
procedures for alerting, notifying, activating, and deploying personnel per the AUD ERP; identifying
the mission-critical functions; establishing an alternate facility; and identifying personnel with authority
and knowledge of these functions. Management of human capital, equipment, resources, systems,
and interoperable communications will be addressed. In addition, procedures for maintaining
readiness, implementing and maintaining the Plan, and “drive-away” kits for use by AUD staff will be
included in the Plan.
Task Deliverable: COOP/COG Plan (Draft and Final)
Task Duration: 10 months
EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN (ERP) UPDATE
PROGRAM MANAGER will assist AUD with updating the current water and wastewater ERP dated
February 2006. The ERP will be streamlined to include response-specific information based on likely
scenarios. The ERP will not include COOP/COP redundant information. Specific protocols will be
developed for the ERP based on recommendations provided in the November 2005 After-Action
Report.
Other required plans such as the Risk Management Plan (RMP) and Process Safety Management
Plan (PSMP) will be included in the ERP by content and/or as stand alone appendices. Informational
updates provided by AUD for these ancillary plans will be incorporated, as applicable. Input from the

8.2.1 The OWNER may order, in writing, the CM to suspend all or any part of the CM’s services for
the Project for the convenience of the OWNER or for work stoppage beyond the control of the OWNER or
the CM. If the performance of all or any part of the services for the Project is suspended, an adjustment in
the CM’s compensation shall be made for the increase, if any, in the cost of the CM’s performance of this
Agreement including an adjustment to the GMP caused by such suspension and this Agreement shall be
modified in writing accordingly.
8.2.2 In the event the CM’s services on the Project are suspended, the OWNER shall reimburse the
CM for all of the costs of its construction site staff, assigned Project home office staff and other costs
provided for by this Agreement for the first thirty (30) days of such suspension. The CM shall reduce the size
of such staff for the remainder of the suspension period as directed by the OWNER and during such period,
the OWNER shall reimburse the CM for all costs of reduced staff. Upon cessation of the suspension, the CM
shall restore the construction site and home office staff to its former size.
8.2.3 Persons assigned to another project during such suspension or period and not available to
return to this Project upon cessation of the suspension shall be replaced. The OWNER shall reimburse the
CM for costs incurred in relocating staff persons returning to the Project or new persons assigned to the
Project.
8.2.4 If the Project is suspended by the OWNER for more than three (3) months, the CM shall be
paid compensation for services performed prior to receipt of written notice from the OWNER of such
suspension, together with direct expenses then due and all expenses and costs directly resulting from such
suspension. If the Project is resumed after being suspended for more than six (6) month, the CM shall have
the option of requiring that its compensation, including rates and fees, be renegotiated. Subject to the
provisions of this Agreement relating to termination, a delay or suspension of the Project does not void this
Agreement.

ARTICLE 10
SPECIAL GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE PROVISIONS
10.1 Guaranteed Maximum Price
10.1.1 Pursuant to this Agreement, the OWNER and the CM desire to set a Guaranteed Maximum
Price (GMP) necessary to complete the Project.
10.1.2 Documentation of the GMP shall be developed by the CM from the design drawings and
specifications and such other documents as may be specified in the GMP Proposal.
10.1.3. The GMP for the Project shall include any amendments pursuant to this Agreement, plus any
other cost included in the GMP pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
10.1.4 Project Contingency
a. The Project Contingency or “Contingency” is available for CM’s exclusive use for costs
that are incurred in performing the Work that are not included in a specific line item, or costs
incurred in excess of a specific line item, or the basis for a Change Order under the Contract
Documents during CM’s performance under the Contract. By way of example of contingency, and
not as a limitation, such costs include: subcontractor defaults and unknown physical conditions of
an unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally
recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract
Documents. The Contingency is not available to OWNER for changes in scope or any other item
for which the CM would be entitled to increase the GMP under the Contract Documents. The
OWNER may, however, request use of Contingency, but use must be approved by CM.
b. CM shall provide OWNER with notice of all anticipated charges against the
Contingency. Further, the CM shall provide to OWNER written documentation of any costs CM
incurs and reasonably determines are chargeable to the Contingency, together with a written
explanation of the factual basis for such charge. OWNER shall review and respond with
concurrence or denial within ten (10) working days of receipt of CM’s notice. Any Contingency
costs the CM incurs after the Contingency is exhausted, unless provided otherwise under this
Agreement shall be non-reimbursable.
c. The CM shall for budgeting purposes determine the Contingency amount by anticipated
risk for various elements of the Work in amounts determined by the CM. The total of these
individually determined amounts represent the Project Contingency and shall be incorporated into
the GMP and managed on a line item basis.

d. The documentation shall be prepared by the CM and submitted to the OWNER with the
Guaranteed Maximum Prices. The documentation may include drawings, sketches, specifications,
calculations or other data used to identify the basis of the Guaranteed Maximum Price.
e. In the event that the cost exceeds the Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Project
Contingency has been exhausted, the CM shall continue to perform at no additional cost to the
OWNER until the Project is complete. The CM shall be responsible for paying all costs, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement that may be necessary to complete the Project. The
CM may use the Contingency for the Project to fund the cost overruns.
10.1.6 Allowance definition. For the purposes of the GMP and the Contract Documents, “Allowance”
shall mean a stated requirement of the Contract Documents and or the GMP Proposal whereby a sum of
money is incorporated, or allowed, into the GMP in order to sustain the cost of a material, piece of
equipment, or other cost of the construction work as deemed appropriate by the OWNER. Allowances are to
cover “known” but unquantifiable items covered in the GMP as provided herein or the GMP Proposal. The
allowances will include the agreed upon fee percentage when utilized. The payment of an Allowance must
be approved by the OWNER and for the OWNER’s sole and exclusive use. Any payment exceeding the
original specified sum of money stipulated for the Allowances shall be the responsibility of the OWNER, who
will execute a Change Order to Guaranteed Maximum Price equal to such excess payment.

Article 11
Additional Conditions
11.1 Ongoing Plant Operations.
The CM further represents and acknowledges that the GMP has been developed with full consideration of all
requirements to allow the OWNER to maintain the existing JB MESSERLY WATER POLUTION CONTROL
PLANT in full operation at all times during the construction process including close coordination with the
OWNER’s staff and being prepared to make scheduled activity adjustments when required to allow
uninterrupted operation of the water treatment plant under normal operating conditions.
11.2 Performance and Payment Bond
Upon execution of this agreement, the CM shall deliver to the OWNER a performance and payment bond for
the full GMP in the form usually used by the OWNER.
11.3 Limitation of Liability
The OWNER in recognition of the amount of the CM's fee, the relative risks and benefits of the Project to
both the OWNER and the CM, the parties agree to allocate any liabilities and unforeseen risks assumed by
the CM under the terms of this Agreement or by operation of law, including but not limited to: injury to
persons or property, Force Majuere, Defective Work, Cost Overruns, Indemnification and Delays as follows:
(1) to the fullest extent of permitted by law, the OWNER agrees to limit the liability of the CM and its affiliated
companies, directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives to the OWNER and anyone claiming
by or through the OWNER, for any and all claims, losses, costs or damages, including attorneys’ fees and
costs and expert- witness fees and costs of any nature whatsoever or claims expenses resulting from or in
any way related to the Project or this Agreement from any cause (inclusive of Liquidated Damages and
Construction Acceleration claims) to seven million dollars ($7,000,000.) This limitation shall apply regardless
of the cause of action or legal theory pled or asserted. and OWNER hereby irrevocably waives and releases
CM and its affiliated companies, directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives from all liability
in excess thereof.
11.4 Liquidated Damages
Any delay in the scheduled dates for Substantial Completion and the Final Completion Date shown below will
cause loss and damage to Augusta. Such damages include not only damages resulting from loss of ability to
use the Project as planned and staff administrative costs, but also damages to its reputation both locally and
nationally. From the nature of this Agreement, it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to fix the

Page 40 of 123
Item # 34

actual damages sustained as a result of missing these deadlines. The OWNER and CM therefore agree that
in the event of missing any of the deadlines, and such failure is not caused by the actions or inaction of the
OWNER, or as the result of an OWNER requested change, the CM agrees to pay the OWNER liquidated
damages, and not as a penalty, the sum of either two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.00) or Five
Hundred dollars ($500.00)per day for each calendar day that Substantial Completion or Final Completion is
delayed beyond the dates indicated below. The Parties agree that this sum is a fair and reasonable
estimate of the actual damage which would be caused by the failure to complete the Project by the agreed
times.
Substantial Completion: April 28, 2010 : $ 2,500.00/day
Final Completion: June 28, 2010: $ 500.00/day

perform the Work under this Contract and that the Work under this Contract shall at all times be given priority and
precedence over such other contracts or contractors. OWNER has priority when other work is related to operational
issues or construction required by emergency/unforeseen conditions or events. If the fact that such other work is to
be performed was not noted in the Contract Documents, written notice thereof will be given to CONTRACTOR
prior to starting any such other work, and, if CONTRACTOR believes that such performance will involve

to construct any item to plan or authorized dimensions within the specification tolerances shall result in:
reconstruction to acceptable tolerances at no additional costs to OWNER; acceptance at no pay; or acceptance at
reduced final pay quantity or reduced unit price, all at the discretion of OWNER. Determinations of aggregate
monetary change for items identified as lump sum quantities shall be made by OWNER based upon an analysis of

any separate CONTRACTOR employed by OWNER, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire,
unavoidable casualties, utility conflicts which could not have been identified or foreseen by CONTRACTOR using
reasonable diligence, or any causes beyond CONTRACTOR’s control or fault, then the Contract Time shall be
extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as OWNER may determine. CONTRACTOR shall be entitled
to an extension of time for such causes only for the number of days of delay which OWNER may determine to be

OWNER that all materials and equipment will be new unless otherwise specified and that all work will be of good
quality, performed in a workmanlike manner, free from faults or defects, and in accordance with the requirements
of the Contract Documents and any inspections, tests, or approvals referred to in this Article. All unsatisfactory
Work, all faulty Work and all Work not conforming to the requirements of the Contract Documents or such
inspections, tests, approvals, or all applicable building, construction and safety requirements shall be considered
defective. Notice of all defects shall be given to CONTRACTOR by PROFESSIONAL in writing specifying in
reasonable detail the alleged defects within ninety (90) days after discovery of such defects. All defective work,
whether or not in place, may be rejected, corrected, or accepted as provided in this Article.”
Uncovering Work:
Section 13.9 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “If PROFESSIONAL considers it necessary or
advisable that covered Work be observed by PROFESSIONAL or inspected or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at
PROFESSIONAL's request, shall uncover, expose or otherwise make available for observation, inspection or
testing as PROFESSIONAL may require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor,
material and equipment. If it is found that such Work is defective, CONTRACTOR shall bear all direct costs of
such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection and testing and of satisfactory reconstruction (including but not
limited to fees and charges of PROFESSIONAL’s, architects, attorneys and other PROFESSIONAL’s), and
OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price and, if the parties are unable to agree as
to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 11. 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, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or extent thereof, CONTRACTOR may make
a claim therefore as provided in Articles 11 and 12.”
OWNER May Stop the Work:
Section 13.10 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “When Work is defective or when
CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen or suitable materials or equipment or make prompt
payments to Subcontractors for labor, materials, or equipment or if CONTRACTOR violates any provisions of
these Contract Documents, OWNER may order CONTRACTOR to stop the Work until the cause for such order has
been reasonably 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. CONTRACTOR shall
have no right to claim an increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time or other damages for a stop work order
under this paragraph.”
One Year Correction Period:
Section 13.12 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “If, after approval of final payment and
prior to the expiration of one year after the date of substantial completion of the project or part thereof, whichever
occurs first, or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents, any Work or
materials are found to be defective, incomplete, or otherwise not in accordance with the Contract Documents,
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, OWNER
may have the defective Work corrected, removed, or replaced. All direct costs of such removal and replacement
(including but not limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals) will be
paid by CONTRACTOR.”
Acceptance of Defective Work:
Section 13.13 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “If, instead of requiring correction or
removal and replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to PROFESSIONAL's recommendation of final
payment, PROFESSIONAL) prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so. CON-TRACTOR shall bear all direct, l costs
attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved
by PROFESSIONAL as to reasonableness and to include but not be limited to fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys and other professionals). If any such acceptance occurs prior to PROFESSIONAL's
recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the
Contract Documents with respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefore

as provided in Article 11. If the acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate amount will be paid
by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.”
OWNER May Correct Defective Work:
Section 13.14. is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “If CONTRACTOR fails within a
reasonable time after written notice of PROFESSIONAL to proceed to correct defective Work or to remove and
replace rejected Work as required by PROFESSIONAL in accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if CONTRACTOR
fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, or if CONTRACTOR falls to comply with
any other provision of the Contract Documents, OWNER may, after seven days' written notice to CONTRACTOR,
correct and remedy any such deficiency. In exercising the rights and remedies under this paragraph, OWNER shall
proceed expeditiously, to the extent necessary to complete corrective and remedial action. OWNER may exclude
CONTRACTOR from all or part of the site, take possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend
CONTRACTOR's services related thereto, 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 the rights and remedies under this paragraph. All direct costs of OWNER in exercising such
rights and remedies will be charged against CONTRACTOR in an amount approved as to reasonableness by
PROFESSIONAL, and a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract
Documents with respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract
Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor as
provided in Article 11. Such direct costs will include, but not be limited to, fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys and other professionals, all court costs 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 and remedies hereunder.”
Neglected Work by CONTRACTOR
Section 13.15 If CONTRACTOR neglects to execute the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents,
including any requirements of the progress schedule, PROFESSIONAL may direct CONTRACTOR to submit a
recovery plan and take specific corrective actions including, but not limited to, employing additional workmen
and/or equipment, and working extended hours and additional days, all at no cost to OWNER in order to put the
Work back on schedule. If CONTRACTOR fails to correct the deficiency or take appropriate corrective action,
OWNER may terminate the contract subject to the provisions of Article 15 or CONTRACTOR’s right to proceed
with that portion of Work and have the Work done by others. The cost of completion under such procedure shall be
charged against CONTRACTOR. A Change Order shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the
Contract Documents, including an appropriate reduction in the Contract Price. If the payments due
CONTRACTOR are not sufficient to cover such amount, CONTRACTOR shall pay the difference to OWNER.
Schedule of Values:
Section 14.1 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “The Schedule of Values established as
provided in paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments to be made on a monthly basis by OWNER
and will be incorporated into a form of Application for Payment acceptable to Project Manager. Progress payments
on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units completed.”
Review of Applications for Progress Payment:
Section 14.4 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “PROFESSIONAL will, within ten (10) calendar
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
PROFESSIONAL’s reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the
necessary corrections and resubmit the application. OWNER shall, within thirty-one calendar days of presentation
to him of the application for payment with PROFESSIONAL’s recommendation of the amount for payment, pay
CONTRACTOR amount recommended. OWNER will make partial payments with respect to each Application for
Payment to the extent that no valid reasons are documented by PROGRAM MANAGER for non-payment of
specific charges.”

Section 14.7.4 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “of PROFESSIONAL's actual
knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.9 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by PROFESSIONAL because
claims have been made against OWNER on account of CONTRACTOR's performance or furnishing of the Work or
Liens have been filed in connection with the Work or there are other items entitling OWNER to a off-set against the
amount recommended, but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate written notice (with a copy to
PROFESSIONAL) stating the reasons for such action. Upon CONTRACTOR’S correction of any such
deficiencies, OWNER shall forthwith make prompt payment of the amount due and outstanding to
CONTRACTOR.”
Termination For Cause:
Section 15.2.9 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “if CONTRACTOR otherwise violates in any
substantial way any provisions of the Contract Documents, OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR (and the
surety, if there be one) seven days' written notice and to the extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, terminate
the services of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR from the site and take possession of the Work 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, 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 costs of completing the Work (including but not limited to fees and
charges of PROFESSIONALs, architects, attorneys and other PROFESSIONALs and court and arbitration costs)
such excess will be paid to CONTRACTOR. If such costs exceed such unpaid balance, CONTRACTOR shall pay
the difference to OWNER. Such costs incurred by OWNER will be approved as to reasonableness by
PROFESSIONAL and incorporated in a Change Order, but when exercising any rights or remedies under this
paragraph, OWNER shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.”
ARTICLE 16--DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Section 16.1 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “All disputes arising under this Contract
or its interpretation whether involving law or fact or both, or extra work, and all claims for alleged breach of
contract shall within thirty (30) working days of the commencement of the dispute, or such other time as mutually
agreed by the parties, be presented by CONTRACTOR to OWNER for decision. All papers pertaining to claims
shall be filed in quadruplicate. Such notice need not detail the amount of the claim but shall state the facts
surrounding the claim in sufficient detail to identify the claim, together with its character and scope. In the
meantime, CONTRACTOR shall proceed with the Work as directed. Any claim not presented within the time limit
specified in this paragraph shall be deemed to have been waived, except that if the claim is of a continuing character
and notice of the claim is not given within thirty (30) working days of its commencement, the claim will be
considered only for a period commencing thirty (30) working days prior to the receipt by OWNER of notice
thereof. Each decision by OWNER will be in writing and will be mailed to CONTRACTOR by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, directed to his last known address. OWNER shall make its decision for each
such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt from CONTRACTOR of such claim unless otherwise mutually
agreed by the parties.”
General:
Section 17.4 is hereby replaced and superseded by the following: “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 6.32,
13.1, 13.12, 13.14, 14.3 and 15.2 and all of the rights and remedies available to OWNER, PROFESSIONAL, and

paragraph will be as effective as if repeated specifically in the Contract Documents in connection with each
particular duty, obligation, right and remedy to which they apply. All representations, warranties and guarantees
made in the Contract Documents will survive final payment and termination or completion of the Agreement.”

records and supporting documentation applicable to this Work and Contract. Said records and documentation shall
be retained by CONTRACTOR for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of final completion or termination of

shall also have the right to obtain a copy of and otherwise inspect any audit made at the direction of

2.9. At least ten days before submission of the first Application for Payment, a conference attended by
CONTRACTOR, PROFESSIONAL and OWNER and others as appropriate will be held to finalize the
schedules submitted in accordance with paragraph 2.6. CONTRACTOR shall have an additional ten (10)
calendar days to make corrections and adjustments and to complete and resubmit the schedules. No
progress payment shall be made to CONTRACTOR until the schedules are submitted and acceptable to
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL as provided below. The finalized progress schedule will be acceptable to
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL as providing an orderly progression of the Work to completion within any
specified Milestones and the Contract Time, but such acceptance will neither impose on PROFESSIONAL
responsibility for the sequencing, scheduling or progress of the Work nor interfere with or relieve
CONTRACTOR from full responsibility therefor. The finalized schedule of Shop Drawing submissions and
Sample submissions will be acceptable to PROFESSIONAL as providing a workable arrangement for
reviewing and processing the submissions. CONTRACTOR's schedule of values shall be approved by
PROFESSIONAL as to form and substance.
CONTRACTOR, in addition to preparing an initially acceptable schedule, shall be responsible for
maintaining the schedule, including updating schedule. Schedule updates shall include progression of work as
compared to scheduled progress on work. Schedule updates shall accompany each pay request.

Georgia.
3.2. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to describe a functionally complete Project (or part
thereof) to be constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents. Any Work, materials or equipment that
may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents or from prevailing custom or trade usage as being
required to produce the intended result will be supplied whether or not specifically called for. When words or
phrases which have a well-known technical or construction industry or trade meaning are used to describe
Work, materials or equipment, such words shall be interpreted in accordance with that meaning.
3.3. Except as otherwise specifically stated in the Contract Documents or as may be provided by
amendment or supplement thereto issued by one of the methods indicated in 3.6 or 3.7, the provisions of the

the provisions of the Contract Documents and the provisions of any such standard, specification, manual, code
or instruction (whether or not specifically incorporated by reference in the Contract Documents) and the
provisions of any such Laws or Regulations applicable to the performance of the Work (unless such an
interpretation of the provisions of the Contract Documents would result in violation of such Law or Regulation).
Clarifications and interpretations of the Contract Documents shall be issued by PROFESSIONAL as provided
in paragraph 9.4.
3.4. Reference to standards, specifications, manuals or codes of any technical society, organization or
association, or to the Laws or Regulations of any governmental authority, whether such reference be specific
or by implication, shall mean the latest standard, specification, manual, code or Laws or Regulations 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 in the Contract Documents.
3.5. If, during the performance of the Work, CONTRACTOR discovers any conflict, error, ambiguity or
discrepancy within the Contract Documents or between the Contract Documents and any provision of any
such Law or Regulation applicable to the performance of the Work or of any such standard, specification,
manual or code or of any instruction of any Supplier referred to in 6.7, CONTRACTOR shall so report to
PROFESSIONAL in writing at once and before proceeding with the Work affected thereby and shall obtain a
written interpretation or clarification from PROFESSIONAL; however, CONTRACTOR shall not be liable to
OWNER or PROFESSIONAL for failure to report any conflict, error, ambiguity or discrepancy in the Contract
Documents unless CONTRACTOR had actual knowledge thereof or should reasonably have known thereof.
Amending and Supplementing Contract Documents:
3.6. The Contract Documents may be amended to provide for additions, deletions and revisions in the
Work or to modify the terms and conditions thereof in one or more of the following ways:

3.7.2. PROFESSIONAL's approval of a Shop Drawing or sample (pursuant to paragraphs 6.24 and
6.26), or
3.7.3. PROFESSIONAL's written interpretation or clarification (pursuant to paragraph 9.4).
Reuse of documents:
3.8. Neither CONTRACTOR nor any Subcontractor or Supplier or other person or organization
performing or furnishing any of the Work under a direct or indirect contract with OWNER shall have or acquire
any title to or OWNERSHIP rights in any of the Drawings, Specifications or other documents (or copies of any
thereof) prepared by or bearing the seal of PROFESSIONAL or PROFESSIONAL's consultant; and they shall
not reuse such Drawings, Specifications or other documents (or copies of any thereof) on extensions of the

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 and easements for access thereto, and such other lands which are designated
for the use of CONTRACTOR. Necessary easements or rights-of-way will be obtained and expenses will be
borne by OWNER. If CONTRACTOR and OWNER are unable to agree on entitlement to or the amount or
extent of any adjustments in the Contract Price or the Contract Times as a result of any delay in OWNER’s
furnishing these lands, rights-of-way or easements, the CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefor as
provided in Articles 11 and 12. The CONTRACTOR shall provide for all additional lands and access thereto
that may be required for temporary construction facilities or storage of materials and equipment.
Physical Conditions:
4.2.1. Explorations and Reports: Reference is made to the Supplementary Conditions for identification
of those reports of explorations and tests of subsurface conditions at or contiguous to the site that have been
utilized in preparing the Contract Documents and those drawings of physical conditions in or relating to
existing surface or subsurface structures at or contiguous to the site (except Underground Facilities) that have
been utilized in preparing the Contract Documents.
4.2.2. CONTRACTOR may rely upon the general accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such
reports and drawings. Such "technical data" is identified in the Supplementary Conditions. Except for such
reliance on such "technical data," CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or make any claim against OWNER,
PROFESSIONAL, or any of PROFESSIONAL's Consultants with respect to:
4.2.2.1. the completeness of such reports and drawings for CONTRACTOR's purposes, including but
not limited to, any aspects of the means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures of construction to
be employed by CONTRACTOR and safety precautions and programs incident thereto, or
4.2.2.2. other data, interpretations, opinions and information contained in such reports or shown or
indicated in such drawings, or
4.2.2.3. any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or conclusion drawn from any "technical data" or any
such data, interpretations, opinions or information.
4.2.3. If conditions are encountered, excluding existing utilities, at the site which are (1) subsurface or
otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract
Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, which differ materially from those
ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character
provided for in the Contract Documents, then CONTRACTOR shall give OWNER notice thereof promptly
before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than 48 hours after first observance of the conditions.
4.2.4. The OWNER and PROFESSIONAL shall promptly investigate such conditions, and, if they
differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in CONTRACTOR’s cost of, or time required for,
performance of any part of the Work, the OWNER and PROFESSIONAL shall recommend an equitable
adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Time, or both. If the OWNER and PROFESSIONAL determine
that the conditions at the Site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents or

justified, the PROFESSIONAL shall notify CONTRACTOR of the determination in writing. The Work shall be
performed after direction is provided by the PROFESSIONAL.
Physical Conditions-Underground Facilities:
4.3.1. Shown or Indicated: The information and data shown or indicated in the Contract Documents
with respect to existing Underground Facilities at or contiguous to the site is based on information and data
furnished to OWNER or PROFESSIONAL by OWNER’S of such Underground Facilities or by others. Unless
it is otherwise expressly provided in the Supplementary Conditions:
4.3.1.1. OWNER and PROFESSIONAL shall not be responsible for the accuracy or completeness of
any such information or data; and
4.3.1.2. The cost of all of the following will be included in the Contract Price and CONTRACTOR shall
have full responsibility for reviewing and checking all such information and data for locating all Underground
Facilities shown or indicated in the Contract Documents, for coordination of the Work with the OWNER’S of
such Underground Facilities during construction, for the safety and protection thereof as provided in paragraph
6.20 and repairing any damage thereto resulting from the Work, the cost of all of which will be considered as
having been included in the Contract Price.
4.3.2. Not Shown or Indicated. If an Underground Facility is uncovered or revealed at or contiguous to
the site which was not shown or indicated in the Contract Documents and which CONTRACTOR could not
reasonably have been expected to be aware of, CONTRACTOR shall, promptly after becoming aware thereof
and before performing any Work affected thereby except in an emergency as permitted by paragraph 6.22,
identify the OWNER of such Underground Facility and give written notice thereof to that OWNER and to
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL. PROFESSIONAL will promptly review the Underground Facility to determine
the extent to which the Contract Documents should be modified to reflect and document the consequences of
the existence of the Underground Facility, and the Contract Documents will be amended or supplemented to
the extent necessary. During such time, CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the safety and protection of
such Underground Facility as provided in paragraph 6.20. CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an increase in the
Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Time, or both, to the extent that they are attributable to the
existence of any Underground Facility that was not shown or indicated in the Contract Documents and which
CONTRACTOR could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of. If the parties are unable to agree
as to the amount or length thereof, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefor as provided in Articles 11 and
12.
Reference Points:
4.4. OWNER shall provide Engineering surveys to establish reference points for construction which in
PROFESSIONAL's judgment are necessary to enable CONTRACTOR to proceed with the Work.
CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for laying out the Work (unless otherwise specified in the General
Requirements), 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 PROFESSIONAL
whenever any reference point is lost or destroyed or requires relocation because of necessary changes in
grades or locations, and shall be responsible for the accurate replacement or relocation of such reference
points by professionally qualified personnel.

PROFESSIONAL concerning the necessity for OWNER to retain a qualified expert to evaluate such hazardous
condition or take corrective action, if any. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to resume Work in connection
with such hazardous condition or in any such affected area until after OWNER has obtained any required
permits related thereto and delivered to CONTRACTOR special written notice (i) specifying that such condition
and any affected area is or has been rendered safe for the resumption of Work, or (ii) specifying any special
conditions under which such Work may be resumed safely. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR cannot agree as
to entitlement to or the amount or extent of an adjustment, if any, in Contract Price or Contract Times as a
result of such Work stoppage or such special conditions under which Work is agreed by CONTRACTOR to be
resumed, either party may make a claim therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
4.7 If after receipt of such special written notice, CONTRACTOR does not agree to resume such
Work based on a reasonable belief it is unsafe, or does not agree to resume such Work under such special
conditions, then CONTRACTOR may order such portion of the Work that is in connection with such hazardous
conditions or in such affected area to be deleted from the Work. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR cannot agree
as to entitlement to or the amount or extent of an adjustment, if any, in Contract Price or Contract Times as a
result of deleting such portion of the Work, then either party may make a claim therefor as provided in Articles
11 and 12. OWNER may have deleted such portion of the Work performed by OWNER’s own forces or others
in accordance with Article 7.
4.7.1 The provisions of 4.2 and 4.3 are not intended to apply to Asbestos, PCBs, Petroleum,
Hazardous Waste or Radioactive Material uncovered or revealed at the site.

of payment of any loss or damage the insurer will have no rights of recovery against any of the parties named
as insureds or additional insureds, and if the insurers require separate waiver forms to be signed by
PROFESSIONAL or PROFESSIONAL's consultant, OWNER will obtain the same, and if such waiver forms
are required of any Subcontractor, CONTRACTOR will obtain the same.
Receipt and Application of Proceeds:
5.12. Any insured loss under the policies of insurance required by paragraphs 5.6 and 5.7 will be
adjusted with OWNER and made payable to OWNER as trustee for the insureds, as their interests may
appear, subject to the requirements of any applicable mortgage clause and of paragraph 5.13. OWNER shall

thereof covered by an appropriate Change Order or Written Amendment.
Receipt and Application of Insurance Proceeds
5.13. OWNER, as trustee, shall have power to adjust and settle any loss with the insurers unless one
of the parties in interest shall object in writing within fifteen days after the occurrence of loss to OWNER's

interest, OWNER as trustee shall, upon the occurrence of an insured loss, give bond for the proper
performance of such duties.

the basis of their not complying with the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR shall notify OWNER in writing
thereof within ten days of the date of delivery, of such certificates to CONTRACTOR in accordance with
paragraph 2.7. OWNER and CONTRACTOR shall each provide to the other such additional information in
respect of insurance provided by each as the other may reasonably request. Failure by OWNER or
CONTRACTOR to give any such notice of objection within the time provided shall constitute acceptance of
such insurance purchased by the other as complying with the Contract Documents.
Partial Utilization-Property Insurance:
5.15. If OWNER finds it necessary to occupy or use a portion or portions of the Work prior to
Substantial Completion of all the Work, such use or occupancy may be accomplished in accordance with
paragraph 14.10 provided that no such use or occupancy shall commence before the insurers providing the
property insurance have acknowledged notice thereof and in writing effected the changes in coverage neces-
sitated thereby. The insurers providing the property insurance shall consent by endorsement on the policy or
policies, but the property insurance shall not be canceled or lapse on account of any such partial use or

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 Contract
Documents, all Work at the site shall be performed during regular working hours, and CONTRACTOR will not
permit evening work or the performance of Work on Saturday, Sunday or any legal holiday without OWNER's
written consent given after prior written notice to PROFESSIONAL.

equipment shall be applied, installed, connected, erected, used, cleaned and conditioned in accordance with
the instructions of the applicable Supplier except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents; but no

Substitutes or "Or-Equal" Items:
6.7.1. Whenever materials or equipment are specified or described in the Contract Documents by
using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular Supplier, 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 Suppliers may be accepted by PROFESSIONAL if
sufficient information is submitted by CONTRACTOR to allow PROFESSIONAL to determine that the material
or equipment proposed is equivalent or equal to that named. The procedure for review by PROFESSIONAL
will include the following as supplemented in the General Requirements. Requests for review of substitute
items of material and equipment will not be accepted by PROFESSIONAL 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 PROFESSIONAL for acceptance thereof, certifying that the
proposed substitute will perform adequately the functions and achieve the results called for by the general
design, be similar and of equal substance to that specified and be suited to the same use as that specified.
The application will state that the evaluation and acceptance of the proposed substitute will not prejudice
CONTRACTOR's achievement of Substantial Completion on time, whether or not acceptance of the substitute
for use in the Work will require a change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other
direct contract with OWNER for work on the Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute and
whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any
license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that specified will 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 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 PROFESSIONAL. In evaluating the proposed substitute, PROFESSIONAL may
require CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR's expense, additional data about the proposed
substitute.
6.7.2. If a specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction is indicated in or
required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method,
sequence, technique or procedure of construction acceptable to PROFESSIONAL, if CONTRACTOR submits
sufficient information to allow PROFESSIONAL to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that
indicated or required by the Contract Documents. The procedure for review by PROFESSIONAL will be similar
to that provided in paragraph 6.7.1 as applied by PROFESSIONAL and as may be supplemented in the Gen-
eral Requirements.
6.7.3. PROFESSIONAL will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposed
substitute. PROFESSIONAL will be the sole judge of acceptability and no substitute will be ordered, installed
or utilized without PROFESSIONAL's prior written acceptance which will be evidenced by either a Change
Order or an approved Shop Drawing. OWNER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR's
expense, a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute. PROFESSIONAL will
record time required by PROFESSIONAL and PROFESSIONAL's consultants in evaluating substitutions
proposed by CONTRACTOR and in making changes in the Contract Documents occasioned thereby. Whether
or not PROFESSIONAL accepts a proposed substitute, CONTRACTOR shall reimburse OWNER for the
charges of PROFESSIONAL and PROFESSIONAL's consultants for evaluating each proposed substitute.
Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers and Others:
6.8.1. CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization

(including those acceptable to OWNER and PROFESSIONAL as indicated in paragraph 6.8.2) whether initially
or as a substitute, against whom OWNER or PROFESSIONAL may have reasonable objection.
CONTRACTOR shall not be required to employ any Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization to
furnish or perform any of the Work against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable objection.
6.8.2. If the Supplementary Conditions require the identity of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers or
other persons or organizations including those who are to furnish the principal items of materials and
equipment to be submitted to OWNER prior to the Effective Date of the Agreement for acceptance by
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL and if CONTRACTOR has submitted a list thereof in accordance with the
Supplementary Conditions, OWNER's or PROFESSIONAL's acceptance (either in writing or by failing to make
written objection thereto by the date indicated for acceptance or objection in the bidding documents or the
Contract Documents) of any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization so identified may be
revoked on the basis of reasonable objection after due investigation, in which case CONTRACTOR shall
submit an acceptable substitute, the Contract Price will be increased by the difference, and the cost
occasioned by such substitution and an appropriate Change Order will be issued or Written Amendment
signed. No acceptance by OWNER or PROFESSIONAL of any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person
or organization shall constitute a waiver of any right of OWNER or PROFESSIONAL to reject defective Work.
6.9. CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to OWNER and PROFESSIONAL for all acts and
omissions of the Subcontractors, Suppliers and other persons and organizations performing or furnishing any
of the Work under a direct or indirect contract with CONTRACTOR just as CONTRACTOR is responsible for
CONTRACTOR's own acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall create any contractual
relationship between OWNER or PROFESSIONAL and any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or
organization, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of OWNER or PROFESSIONAL to pay or to see to
the payment of any moneys due any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization except as
may otherwise be required by Laws and Regulations.
6.10. The divisions and sections of the Specifications and the identifications of any Drawings shall not
control CONTRACTOR in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or Suppliers or delineating the Work to be
performed by any specific trade.
6.11. 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 OWNER and PROFESSIONAL
and contains waiver provisions as required by paragraph 5.11. CONTRACTOR shall pay each Subcontractor a
just share of any insurance moneys received by CONTRACTOR on account of losses under policies issued
pursuant to paragraphs 5.6 and 5.7.
Patent Fees and Royalties:
6.12. 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. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and
hold harmless OWNER and PROFESSIONAL and anyone directly or indirectly employed by either of them
from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses including attorneys' fees and court and arbitration
costs arising out of any infringement on 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.

process will be considered for time extensions only and no damages or additional compensation for delay will
be allowed.
Laws and Regulations:
6.14.1. CONTRACTOR shall give all notices and comply with all Laws and Regulations applicable to
furnishing and performance of the Work. Except where otherwise expressly required by applicable Laws and
Regulations, neither OWNER nor PROFESSIONAL shall be responsible for monitoring CONTRACTOR's
compliance with any Laws or Regulations.
6.14.2. If CONTRACTOR observes that any of the Contract Documents are contradictory to such
laws, rules, and regulations, it will notify the Project Manager promptly in writing. Any necessary changes shall
then be adjusted by an appropriate Change Order. If CONTRACTOR performs any Work that it knows or
should have known to be contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations and without such notice to
the Project Manager, it shall bear all related costs.
Taxes:
6.15. CONTRACTOR shall pay all sales, consumer, use and other similar taxes required to be paid in
accordance with the Laws and Regulations of the place of the Project which are applicable during the
performance of the Work.
Use of Premises:
6.16. CONTRACTOR shall confine construction equipment, the storage of materials and equipment
and the operations of workers to the Project site and land and areas identified in and permitted by the Contract
Documents and other land and areas permitted by Laws and Regulations, rights-of-way, permits and
easements. CONTRACTOR shall not unreasonably encumber the premises with construction equipment or
other materials or equipment. Any loss or damage to CONTRACTOR’s or any Subcontractor’s equipment is
solely at the risk of CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR shall assume full responsibility for any damage to any
such land or area, or to the OWNER or occupant thereof or of any land or areas contiguous thereto, resulting
from the performance of the Work. Should any claim be made against OWNER or PROFESSIONAL by any
such OWNER or occupant because of the performance of the Work, CONTRACTOR shall promptly attempt to
settle with such other party by agreement or otherwise resolve the claim by arbitration or at law.
CONTRACTOR shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, indemnify and hold OWNER
harmless from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses (including, but not limited to, fees of
PROFESSIONALs, architects, attorneys and other professionals and court and arbitration costs) arising
directly, indirectly or consequentially out of any action, legal or equitable, brought by any such other party
against OWNER to the extent based on a claim arising out of CONTRACTOR's performance of the Work.

Safety and Protection:
6.20. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety
precautions and programs in connection with the Work. CONTRACTOR shall assume all risk of loss for stored

shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to:
6.20.1. all employees on the Work and other persons and organizations who may be affected thereby;
6.20.2. all the Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage on or
off the site; and
6.20.3. other property at the site or adjacent thereto, including trees, shrubs, lawns, walks,
pavements, roadways, structures, utilities and Underground Facilities not designated for removal, relocation or
replacement in the course of construction.
CONTRACTOR shall comply with all applicable Laws and Regulations 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 of Underground Facilities and utility OWNERs when prosecution of the Work may affect
them, and shall cooperate with them in the protection, removal, relocation and replacement of their property.
All damage, injury or loss to any property referred to in paragraph 6.20.2 or 6.20.3 caused, directly or
indirectly, in whole or in part, by CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, Supplier or any other person or
organization directly or indirectly employed by any of them to perform or furnish any of the Work or anyone for

Emergencies:
6.22. 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 PROFESSIONAL or
OWNER, is obligated to act to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. CONTRACTOR shall give
PROFESSIONAL prompt written notice if CONTRACTOR believes that any significant changes in the Work or
variations from the Contract Documents have been caused thereby. If PROFESSIONAL determines that a
change in the Contract Documents is required because of the action taken in response to an emergency, a
Work Change Directive or Change Order be issued to document the consequences of the changes or
variations.
6.22.1. CONTRACTOR shall immediately notify PROFESSIONAL of all events involving injuries to
any person on the Site, whether or not such person was engaged in the construction of the Project, and shall
file a written report on such person(s) and any other event resulting in property damage of any amount within
five (5) days of the occurrence.
6.22.2. If PROFESSIONAL determines that a change in the Contract Documents is required because
of the action taken by CONTRACTOR in response to such an emergency, a Change Order will be issued to
document the consequences of such action.
Shop Drawings and Samples:
6.23. After checking and verifying all field measurements, CONTRACTOR shall promptly submit to
PROFESSIONAL for approval, in accordance with the accepted schedule of submittals, all submittals and
samples required by the Contract Documents. All submittals and samples shall have been checked by and
stamped with the approval of CONTRACTOR and identified as PROFESSIONAL may require. The data
shown on or with the submittals will be complete with respect to dimensions, design criteria, materials and any
other information necessary to enable PROFESSIONAL to review the submittal as required. At the time of
each submission, CONTRACTOR shall give notice to PROFESSIONAL of all deviations that the submittal or
sample may have from the requirements of the Contract Documents.
6.24. PROFESSIONAL shall review and approve submittals and samples. Professional’s review and
approval shall be only for conformance with the design concept of the Project and compliance with the
information given in the Contract Documents. The approval of a separate item as such will not indicate
approval of the assembly in which the item functions. CONTRACTOR will make any corrections required by
PROFESSIONAL and resubmit the required number of corrected copies until approved. CONTRACTOR’s
stamp of approval on any submittal or sample shall constitute its representation to PROFESSIONAL and
OWNER that CONTRACTOR has determined and verified all quantities, dimensions, field construction criteria,
materials, catalog numbers, and similar data, and that each submittal or sample has been reviewed or
coordinated with the requirements of the Work and the Contract Documents.
6.24.1. No Work requiring a submittal or sample submission shall commence until the submission has
been approved by PROFESSIONAL. A copy of each approved submittal and each approved sample shall be
kept in good order by CONTRACTOR at the site and shall be available to PROFESSIONAL and OWNER.
Any delays associated with the submittal process will be considered for time extensions only, and no damages
or additional compensation for delay will be allowed.

and verified all quantities, dimensions, specified performance criteria, installation requirements, materials,
catalog numbers and similar data with respect thereto and reviewed or coordinated each Shop Drawing or

6.24.3. At the time of each submission, CONTRACTOR shall give PROFESSIONAL specific written
notice of each variation that the Shop Drawings or samples may have from the requirements of the Contract
Documents, and, in addition, shall cause a specific notation to be made on each Shop Drawing submitted to
PROFESSIONAL for review and approval of each such variation.
6.26. PROFESSIONAL will review and approve with reasonable promptness Shop Drawings and
samples, but PROFESSIONAL's review and approval will 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, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction (except where a specific means,
method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction is indicated in or required by the Contract
Documents) or to safety precautions or 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.
6.27. PROFESSIONAL’s approval of submittals or samples shall not relieve CONTRACTOR from
responsibility for any variation from the requirements of the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR has,
in writing, called PROFESSIONAL’s attention to each such variation at the time of submission and the
OWNER has given written approval to the specific deviation; any such approval by PROFESSIONAL shall not
relieve CONTRACTOR from responsibility for errors or omissions in the submittals.
6.28. Where a shop drawing or sample is required by the Contract Documents or the schedule of
shop drawings and sample submissions accepted by PROFESSIONAL as required, any related work
performed prior to PROFESSIONAL’s review and approval of the pertinent submittal will be at the sole
expense and responsibility of CONTRACTOR.
Continuing the Work:
6.30. CONTRACTOR shall carry on the Work and adhere to 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 permitted by paragraph 15.6 or as CONTRACTOR and OWNER may otherwise
agree in writing.
Cleaning Up:
6.31. CONTRACTOR shall maintain the site free from accumulations of waste materials, rubbish, and
other debris or contaminants resulting from the work on a daily basis or as required. At the completion of the
work, CONTRACTOR shall remove all waste materials, rubbish, and debris from the site as well as all tools,
construction equipment and machinery, and surplus materials and will leave the Site clean and ready for
occupancy by OWNER. All disposal shall be in accordance with applicable Laws and Regulations. In addition
to any other rights available to OWNER under the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR’s failure to maintain
the site may result in withholding of any amounts due CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR will restore to original
condition those portions of the site not designated for alteration by the Contract Documents.
Indemnification:

whose acts any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation under paragraph 6.32 shall not be limited

ARTICLE 7---OTHER WORK
Related Work at Site:
7.1. OWNER may perform other work related to the Project at the site by OWNER's own forces, have
other work performed by aided OWNERs or let other direct contracts therefor which shall contain General
Conditions similar to these. If the fact that such other work is to be performed was not noted in the Contract
Documents, written notice thereof will be given to CONTRACTOR prior to starting any such other work, and, if
CONTRACTOR believes that such performance will involve additional expense to CONTRACTOR or requires
additional time and the parties are unable to agree as to the extent thereof, CONTRACTOR may make a claim
therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
7.1.2. CONTRACTOR shall afford each utility OWNER and other contractor who is a party to such a
direct contract for OWNER, if OWNER is performing the additional work with OWNER's employees, proper
and safe access to the site and a reasonable opportunity for the introduction and storage of materials and
equipment and the execution of such work, and shall properly connect and coordinate the Work with theirs.
CONTRACTOR shall do all cutting, fitting and patching of the 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 PROFESSIONAL and the others whose work will be affected. The duties and
responsibilities of CONTRACTOR under this paragraph are for the benefit of such utility OWNERs and other
contractors to the extent that there are comparable provisions for the benefit of CONTRACTOR in said direct
contracts between OWNER and such utility OWNERs and other contractors.
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 OWNER (or OWNER), CONTRACTOR shall inspect and promptly report to
PROFESSIONAL in writing any delays, defects or deficiencies in such work that render it unavailable or
unsuitable for such proper execution and results. CONTRACTOR's failure so to report will constitute an
acceptance of the other work as fit and proper for integration with CONTRACTOR's Work except for latent or
nonapparent defects and deficiencies in the other work.
Coordination:
7.4. If OWNER contracts with others for the performance of other work on the Project at the site, the
person or organization who will have authority and responsibility for coordination of the activities among the
various prime contractors will be identified in the Supplementary Conditions, and the specific matters to be
covered by such authority and responsibility will be itemized, and the extent of such authority and
responsibilities will be provided in the Supplementary Conditions. Unless otherwise provided in the
Supplementary Conditions, neither OWNER nor PROFESSIONAL shall have any authority or responsibility in
respect of such coordination.

ARTICLE 9---PROFESSIONAL'S STATUS DURING
CONSTRUCTION
OWNER's Representative:
9.1. PROFESSIONAL will be OWNER's representative during the construction period. The duties and
responsibilities and the limitations of authority of PROFESSIONAL as OWNER's representative during
construction are set forth in the Contract Documents and shall not be extended without written consent of
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL.
Visits to Site:
9.2. PROFESSIONAL will make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of
construction to observe the premises and quality of the executed Work and to determine, in general, if the
Work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents. PROFESSIONAL will not be required to
make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work.
PROFESSIONAL'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 experienced and qualified design PROFESSIONAL, PROFESSIONAL will keep OWNER
informed of the progress of the Work and will endeavor to guard OWNER against defects and deficiencies in
the Work.
Project Representation:
9.3. If OWNER and PROFESSIONAL agree, PROFESSIONAL will furnish a Resident Project
Representative to assist PROFESSIONAL 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 Supplementary Conditions. If OWNER designates another agent to represent OWNER at
the site who is not PROFESSIONAL's agent or employee, the duties, responsibilities and limitations of
authority of such other person will be as provided in the Supplementary Conditions.
Clarifications and Interpretations:
9.4. PROFESSIONAL shall issue such written clarifications or interpretations of the Contract
Documents (in the form of Drawings or otherwise) as may be determined necessary, or as reasonably
requested by CONTRACTOR, which shall be consistent with or reasonably inferable from the overall intent of
the Contract Documents. If CONTRACTOR believes that a written clarification and interpretation entitles it to
an increase in the Contract Price and/or Contract Time, CONTRACTOR may make a claim as provided for in
Articles 11 or 12.
Authorized Variations in Work:
9.5. PROFESSIONAL may authorize minor variations in the Work from the requirements of the
Contract Documents which do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Time and are
consistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents. These may be accomplished by a Field Order
and will be binding on OWNER and also on CONTRACTOR who shall perform the Work involved promptly. If
CONTRACTOR believes that a Field Order justifies an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the

binding upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR, unless, within ten days after the date of any such decision, either
OWNER or CONTRACTOR delivers to the other party to the Agreement and to PROFESSIONAL written
notice of intention to appeal from such a decision.
Decisions on Disputes:
9.11. PROFESSIONAL will be the initial interpreter of the requirements of the Contract Documents

matter.
Limitations on PROFESSIONAL's Responsibilities:

responsibility of PROFESSIONAL to CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any of their agents or employees.
9.14. PROFESSIONAL shall not be responsible for the construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences, or procedures or the safety precautions and programs used. PROFESSIONAL shall not be

ARTICLE 10--CHANGES IN THE WORK
10.1. Without invalidating the Contract, OWNER may at any time or from time to time order additions,
deletions, or revisions in the Work. The OWNER shall provide CONTRACTOR with a proposal request,
identifying the Work to be added, deleted or revised. Upon receipt, CONTRACTOR shall promptly submit a
written proposal for the changed work prepared in accordance with Articles 11 and 12. If the proposal request
calls only for the deletion of Work, the OWNER may order the partial suspension of any Work related to the
proposed deletion, in which case CONTRACTOR must cease performance as directed; CONTRACTOR shall
not be entitled to claim lost profits on deleted work. All changed Work shall be executed under the applicable
conditions of the Contract Documents.
10.2. Additional Work performed by CONTRACTOR 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 Article 6. The effect of this paragraph shall remain paramount and shall
prevail irrespective of any conflicting provisions contained in these Contract Documents.
10.3. Upon agreement as to changes in the Work to be performed, Work performed in an emergency
as provided in Article 6, and any other claim of CONTRACTOR for a change in the Contract Time or the
Contract Price, PROFESSIONAL will prepare a written Change Order to be signed by PROFESSIONAL and
CONTRACTOR and submitted to OWNER for approval.
10.4. In the absence of an agreement as provided in 10.3, OWNER may, at its sole discretion, issue a
Work Change Directive to CONTRACTOR. Pricing of the Work Change Directive will be in accordance with
Section 11.3. The Work Change Directive will specify a price, and if applicable a time extension, determined
to be reasonable by OWNER. If CONTRACTOR fails to sign such Work Change Directive , CONTRACTOR
may submit a claim in accordance with Articles 11 and 12, but CONTRACTOR shall nevertheless be obligated
to fully perform the work as directed by the Work Change Directive.
10.5. CONTRACTOR shall proceed diligently with performance of the Work as directed by OWNER,
regardless of pending claim actions, unless otherwise agreed to in writing.
10.6. If notice of any change affecting the general scope of the Work or the provisions of the Contract
Documents (including, but not limited to, Contract Price or Contract Time) is required by the provisions of any
Bond to be given to a surety, the giving of any such notice will be CONTRACTOR's responsibility, and the
amount of each applicable Bond will be adjusted accordingly.

ARTICLE 11-CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE
11.1. The Contract Price constitutes the total compensation (subject to written authorized
adjustments) payable to CONTRACTOR for performing the Work. All duties, responsibilities and obligations
assigned to or undertaken by CONTRACTOR shall be at CONTRACTOR’s expense without change in the
Contract Price.
11.2. The Contract Price may only be changed by a Change Order or by a Written Amendment. Any
claim for an increase or decrease in the Contract Price shall be based on written notice delivered by the party
making the claim to the other party and to PROFESSIONAL promptly (but in no event later than thirty days)
after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of
the amount of the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within sixty days after such occurrence (unless
PROFESSIONAL allows an additional period of time to ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim)
and shall be accompanied by claimant's written statement that the amount claimed covers all known amounts
(direct, indirect and consequential) to which the claimant is entitled as a result of the occurrence of said event.
All claims for adjustment in the Contract Price shall be determined by PROFESSIONAL in accordance with
paragraph 9.11 if OWNER and CONTRACTOR cannot otherwise agree on the amount involved. No claim for
an adjustment in the Contract Price will be valid if not submitted in accordance with this paragraph 11.2.
11.3. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order or of any claim for an adjustment in the
Contract Price will be determined by the following procedures:
11.3.1. Designated Unit Price (Field Measure). CONTRACTOR and OWNER recognize and
acknowledge that the quantities shown for those items designated in the Bid Proposal as unit price items are
approximations prepared by OWNER for bid purposes and that the actual compensation payable to
CONTRACTOR for the utilization of such items is based upon the application of unit prices to the actual
quantities of items involved as measured in the field and required to complete the Work as originally defined in
the Contract Documents.
11.3.2. When it is determined by OWNER that an addition, deletion, or revision to the Work, as
defined in these Contract Documents, is required and affects the quantities required for items designed in the
Bid Proposal as unit price items, CONTRACTOR and OWNER agree that the compensation payable to
CONTRACTOR for such unit price items shall be adjusted accordingly by a Change Order based upon the
application of the appropriate unit prices shown in the Bid Proposal to the quantity of the unit price item
required to complete the Work as defined in the Contract Documents.
11.3.3. Other Unit Prices. For items not designated in the bid proposal as unit prices, OWNER and
CONTRACTOR may establish unit prices as agreed on by Change Order.
11.3.4. Lump Sum. When it is determined by OWNER that an addition, deletion or revision to the Work
is required which results in a change in Work designated in the Bid Proposal as a lump sum item, the amount
of increase or decrease in the lump sum price shall be established by mutual agreement of the parties.
11.3.5. If the pricing methods specified in 11.3 are inapplicable, or if the parties are unable to agree on
a price for the changed work, a reasonable price for the same shall be established by OWNER in accordance
with 11.4 and 11.5. OWNER shall then process a unilateral Change Order, specifying the said reasonable

price, in accordance with 11.4 through 11.6. CONTRACTOR shall perform the Work as directed in the
Change Order.
11.3.6. Failure on the part of CONTRACTOR to construct any item to plan or authorized dimensions
within the specification tolerances shall result in: reconstruction to acceptable tolerances at no additional costs
to OWNER; acceptance at no pay; or acceptance at reduced final pay quantity or reduced unit price, all at the
discretion of OWNER. Determinations of aggregate monetary change for items identified as lump sum
quantities shall be made by OWNER based upon an analysis of the scope of CONTRACTOR’s failure to
construct to plan or authorized dimensions.
Cost of the Work:
11.4. The term Cost of the Work means the sum of 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 11.5:
11.4.1. 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, workers' 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, on Saturday, Sunday or legal holidays, shall be included in the
above to the extent authorized by OWNER.
11.4.2. Cost of all materials and equipment furnished and incorporated in the Work, including costs of
transportation and storage thereof, and Suppliers' 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. 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.
11.4.3. Payments made by CONTRACTOR to the Subcontractors for Work performed by
Subcontractors. If required by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall obtain competitive bids from Subcontractors
acceptable to CONTRACTOR and shall deliver such bids to OWNER who then determines, with the advice of
PROFESSIONAL, which bids will be accepted. If a subcontract provides that the Subcontractor is to be paid
on the basis of Cost of the Work Plus a Fee, 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.
11.4.4. Costs of special consultants (including but not limited to engineers, architects, testing
laboratories, surveyors, attorneys and accountants) employed for services specifically related to the Work.
11.4.5. Supplemental costs including the following:

11.4.5.3. 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

or parts shall cease when the use thereof is no longer necessary for the Work.
11.4.5.4. Sales, consumer, use or similar taxes related to the Work, and for which CONTRACTOR is
liable, imposed by Laws and Regulations.
11.4.5.5. Deposits lost for causes other than negligence of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor or

OWNER in accordance with paragraph 5.6) provided they have resulted from causes other than the
negligence of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or
for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such losses shall include settlements made with the written consent
and approval of OWNER. No such losses, damages and expenses shall be included in the Cost of the Work
for the purpose of determining CONTRACTOR's Fee. If, however, any such loss or damage requires
reconstruction and CONTRACTOR is placed in charge thereof, CONTRACTOR shall be paid for services a
fee proportionate to that stated in paragraph 11.6.2.
11.4.5.7. The cost of utilities, fuel and sanitary facilities at the site.
11.4.5.8. Minor expenses such as telegrams, long distance telephone calls, telephone service at the

as follows:
11.6.1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee, or if none can be agreed upon;

11.6.2.1. for costs incurred under paragraphs 11.4.1 and 11.4.2, CONTRACTOR's Fee shall be
fifteen percent,
11.6.2.2. for costs incurred under paragraph 11.4.3, CONTRACTOR's Fee shall five percent; and if a

11.6.2.5. when both additions and credits are involved in any one change, the adjustment in CON-
TRACTOR's Fee shall be computed on the basis of the net change in accordance with paragraphs 11.6.2.1
through 11.6.2.4, inclusive.
11.7. For all changes, CONTRACTOR shall submit an itemized cost breakdown, together with
supporting data in such detail and form as prescribed by the Project Manager. When a credit is due, 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 in direct cost as determined by the Project
Manager, plus the applicable reduction in overhead and profit. When both additions and credits are involved
in any change, the combined overhead and profit shall be calculated on the basis of the net change, whether
an increase or decrease. In any event, the minimum detail shall be an itemization of all man-hours required by
discipline/trade with the unit cost per man-hour and total labor price, labor burden, equipment hours and rate
for each piece of equipment, material by units of measure and price per unit, other costs specifically itemized,

Cash Allowances:
11.8. 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 or
Suppliers and for such sums within the limit of the allowances as may be acceptable to PROFESSIONAL
CONTRACTOR agrees that:
11.8.1. The allowances include the cost to CONTRACTOR (less any applicable trade discounts) of
materials and equipment required by the allowances to be delivered at the site and all applicable taxes; and
11.8.2. CONTRACTOR's costs for unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs,
overhead, profit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract Price
and not in the allowances. No demand for additional payment on account of any thereof will be valid.
Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by PROFESSIONAL to
reflect actual amounts due CONTRACTOR on account of Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price
shall be correspondingly adjusted.
Unit Price Work:
11.9.1. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work,
initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the sum of the
established unit prices for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of
each item as indicated in the Agreement. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not
guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price.
Determinations of the actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by CONTRACTOR will
be made by PROFESSIONAL in accordance with Paragraph 9.10.
11.9.2. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by CONTRACTOR to be
adequate to cover CONTRACTOR's overhead and profit for each separately identified item.

ARTICLE 12--CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIME
12.1. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order. Any request for an extension in
the Contract Time shall be made in writing and delivered to PROFESSIONAL and OWNER within seven (7)
calendar days of the occurrence first happening and resulting in the claim. Written supporting data will be
submitted to PROFESSIONAL and OWNER within fifteen (15) calendar days after such occurrence unless the
OWNER allows additional time. All claims submitted by CONTRACTOR for adjustments to the Contract Time
must set forth in detail the reasons for and causes of the delay and clearly indicate why the subject delay was
beyond CONTRACTOR’s control or fault.
12.2. If CONTRACTOR is delayed at any time in the performance, progress, commencement, or
completion of the Work by any act or neglect of OWNER or PROFESSIONAL, or by an employee of either, or
by any separate CONTRACTOR employed by OWNER, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor
disputes, fire, unavoidable casualties, utility conflicts which could not have been identified or foreseen by
CONTRACTOR using reasonable diligence, or any causes beyond CONTRACTOR’s control or fault, then the
Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as OWNER may determine.
CONTRACTOR shall be entitled to an extension of time for such causes only for the number of days of delay
which OWNER may determine to be due solely to such causes and only to the extent such occurrences
actually delay the completion of the Work and then only if CONTRACTOR shall have strictly complied with all
the requirements of the Contract Documents. Provided, however, notwithstanding anything in the Contract
Documents to the contrary, no interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay in the performance,
progress, commencement or completion of the Work for any cause whatsoever, including those for which
OWNER or PROFESSIONAL may be responsible in whole or in part, shall relieve CONTRACTOR of its duty
to perform or give rise to any right to damages or additional compensation from OWNER. CONTRACTOR’s
sole and exclusive remedy against OWNER for interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay of
any aspect of the Work shall be the right to seek an extension to the Contract Time in accordance with the
procedures set forth herein.

Warranty and Guarantee:
13.1. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees to OWNER that all materials and equipment will be
new unless otherwise specified and that all work will be of good quality, performed in a workmanlike manner,
free from faults or defects, and in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents and any
inspections, tests, or approvals referred to in this Article. All unsatisfactory Work, all faulty Work and all Work
not conforming to the requirements of the Contract Documents or such inspections, tests, approvals, or all
applicable building, construction and safety requirements shall be considered defective. Notice of all defects
shall be given to CONTRACTOR by PROFESSIONAL. All defective work, whether or not in place, may be
rejected, corrected, or accepted as provided in this Article.
Access to Work:
13.2. For the duration of the Work, PROFESSIONAL and its representatives, other designated
representatives of OWNER, and authorized representatives of any regulatory agency shall at all times be
given access to the Work. CONTRACTOR shall provide proper facilities for such access and observation of
the Work and also for any inspection or testing by others.
Tests and Inspections:
13.3. If the Contract Documents, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders of any public authority
having jurisdiction require any Work to specifically be inspected, tested, or approved by someone other than
CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall give PROFESSIONAL timely notice of readiness therefore.
13.4. The testing firm(s) (if assigned by OWNER to this Work) and all such inspections, tests, or
approvals provided for by OWNER shall be identified in writing by PROFESSIONAL to CONTRACTOR. All
other inspections, tests or approvals shall be at CONTRACTOR’s expense including additional expenses for
inspection and tests required as a result of delays by CONTRACTOR or hours worked in excess of 40 hours
per week. For all required inspections, tests, and approvals on any Work prepared, performed, or assembled
away from the site, CONTRACTOR will furnish PROFESSIONAL with the required Certificates of Inspection,
testing, or approval. All such tests will be in accordance with the methods prescribed by the American Society
for Testing and Materials or such other applicable organizations as may be required by law or the Contract
Documents. Materials or Work in place that fail to pass acceptability tests shall be retested at the direction of
PROFESSIONAL and at CONTRACTOR’s expense.
13.5. All inspections, tests or approvals other than those required by Laws or Regulations of any
public body having jurisdiction shall be performed by organizations acceptable to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR (or by PROFESSIONAL if so specified).
13.6. If any Work (including the work of others) that is to be inspected, tested or approved is covered
without written concurrence of PROFESSIONAL, it must, if requested by PROFESSIONAL, be uncovered for
observation. Such uncovering shall be at CONTRACTOR's expense unless CONTRACTOR has given
PROFESSIONAL timely notice of CONTRACTOR's intention to cover the same and PROFESSIONAL has not

13.7. Neither observations by PROFESSIONAL or Project Manager nor inspections, tests, or
approvals by persons other than CONTRACTOR shall relieve CONTRACTOR of its obligations to perform the
Work in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
Uncovering Work:
13.8. If any Work required to be inspected, tested or approved is covered prior thereto without the
prior written approval of PROFESSIONAL, or if any Work is covered contrary to the request of
PROFESSIONAL, the Work shall, if requested by PROFESSIONAL, be uncovered for observation, inspection,
testing or approval and replaced at CONTRACTOR’s expense.
13.9. If PROFESSIONAL considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by
PROFESSIONAL or inspected or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at PROFESSIONAL's request, shall
uncover, expose or otherwise make available for observation, inspection or testing as PROFESSIONAL may
require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor, material and equipment. If it is
found that such Work is defective, CONTRACTOR shall bear all direct and consequential costs of such
uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection and testing and of satisfactory reconstruction (including but not
limited to fees and charges of PROFESSIONALs, architects, attorneys and other PROFESSIONALs), and
OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price and, if the parties are unable to
agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11. 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, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or extent
thereof, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
OWNER May Stop the Work:
13.10. When Work is defective or when CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen or
suitable materials or equipment or make prompt payments to Subcontractors for labor, materials, or equipment
or if CONTRACTOR violates any provisions of these Contract Documents, OWNER may order
CONTRACTOR to stop the Work 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. CONTRACTOR shall have no right to claim an increase in the
Contract Price or Contract Time or other damages for a stop work order under this paragraph.
Correction or Removal of Defective Work:
13.11. When directed by PROFESSIONAL, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to OWNER
and as specified by PROFESSIONAL, either correct the defective Work whether fabricated, installed, or
completed, or remove it from the site and replace it with non-defective Work. If CONTRACTOR does not
correct such defective Work or remove and replace such defective Work within a reasonable time, as specified
in a written notice from PROFESSIONAL, OWNER may have the deficiency corrected. All direct and indirect
costs of such correction shall be paid by CONTRACTOR or deducted from payment to CONTRACTOR.
CONTRACTOR will also bear the expense of correcting or removing and replacing all Work of others

destroyed or damaged by the correction, removal, or replacement of the defective Work.
One Year Correction Period:
13.12. If, after approval of final payment and prior to the expiration of one year 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, any Work or materials are found to be
defective, incomplete, or otherwise not in accordance with the Contract Documents, 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, OWNER may have the
defective Work corrected, removed, or replaced. All direct, indirect and consequential costs of such removal
and replacement (including but not limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other
professionals) will be paid by CONTRACTOR.
Acceptance of Defective Work:
13.13. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and,
prior to PROFESSIONAL's recommendation of final payment, PROFESSIONAL) prefers to accept it, OWNER
may do so. CONTRACTOR shall bear all direct, indirect and consequential costs attributable to OWNER's
evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by
PROFESSIONAL as to reasonableness and to include but not be limited to fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys and other professionals). If any such acceptance occurs prior to PROFESSIONAL's
recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the
Contract Documents with respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim
therefor as provided in Article 11. If the acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate amount
will be paid by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.
OWNER May Correct Defective Work:
13.14. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time after written notice of PROFESSIONAL to
proceed to correct defective Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by PROFESSIONAL in
accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if CONTRACTOR fails to perform the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents, or if CONTRACTOR falls to comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents,
OWNER may, after seven days' written notice to CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency. In
exercising the rights and remedies under this paragraph, OWNER shall proceed expeditiously, to the extent
necessary to complete corrective and remedial action. OWNER may exclude CONTRACTOR from all or part
of the site, take possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend CONTRACTOR's services related thereto,
take possession of CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construction equipment and machinery at the site and
incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which OWNER has paid
CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow OWNER, OWNER's
representatives, agents and employees such access to the site as may be necessary to enable OWNER to
exercise the rights and remedies under this paragraph. All direct, indirect and consequential costs of OWNER
in exercising such rights and remedies will be charged against CONTRACTOR in an amount approved as to
reasonableness by PROFESSIONAL, and a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary

revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate

make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11. Such direct, indirect and consequential costs will include, but
not be limited to, fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals, all court costs
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 and remedies hereunder.
Neglected Work by CONTRACTOR
13.15. If CONTRACTOR neglects to execute the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents,
including any requirements of the progress schedule, PROFESSIONAL may direct CONTRACTOR to submit a
recovery plan and take specific corrective actions including, but not limited to, employing additional workmen
and/or equipment, and working extended hours and additional days, all at no cost to OWNER in order to put
the Work back on schedule. If CONTRACTOR fails to correct the deficiency or take appropriate corrective
action, OWNER may terminate the contract or CONTRACTOR’s right to proceed with that portion of Work and
have the Work done by others. The cost of completion under such procedure shall be charged against
CONTRACTOR. A Change Order shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract
Documents, including an appropriate reduction in the Contract Price. If the payments due CONTRACTOR are
not sufficient to cover such amount, CONTRACTOR shall pay the difference to OWNER.
13.16. Should CONTRACTOR work overtime, weekends or holidays to regain the schedule, all costs
to OWNER of associated inspection, construction management and resident engineers shall be identified to
CONTRACTOR and the Contract Price reduced by a like amount via Change Order.

ARTICLE 14-PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION
Schedule of Values:
14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress
payments and will be incorporated into a form of application for Payment acceptable to Project Manager.
Progress payments on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units completed.
Application for Progress Payment:
14.2. At least twenty (20) calendar days before the date established for each progress payment (but
not more often than once a month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to PROFESSIONAL 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. 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 a bill of sale, invoice or other documentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered
by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect OWNER’s interest therein, all of which
will be satisfactory to OWNER. Payment is subject to a ten percent (10%) retainage that will be held until the
final payment or acceptance by OWNER. 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 no later than
the time of payment free and clear of all Liens.
Review of Applications for Progress Payment:
14.4. PROFESSIONAL will, within ten (10) calendar 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 PROFESSIONAL’s reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the necessary corrections and resubmit
the application. OWNER shall, within thirty-one calendar days of presentation to him of the application for
payment with PROFESSIONAL’s recommendation of the amount for payment, pay CONTRACTOR amount
recommended.
14.5. PROFESSIONAL's recommendation of any payment requested in an Application for Payment
will constitute a representation by PROFESSIONAL to OWNER, based on PROFESSIONAL's on-site
observations of the Work in progress as an experienced and qualified design PROFESSIONAL and on PROF-
ESSIONAL's review of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that the Work
has progressed to the point indicated; that, to the best of PROFESSIONAL'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 whole prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests
called for in the Contract Documents, to a final determination of quantities and classifications for Unit Price
Work under paragraph 9.10, and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation; and that
CONTRACTOR is entitled to payment of the amount recommended. However, by recommending any such
payment, PROFESSIONAL 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 the Work beyond the responsibilities
specifically assigned to PROFESSIONAL in the Contract Documents or that there may not be other matters or
issues between the parties that might entitle CONTRACTOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or OWNER to
withhold payment to CONTRACTOR.
14.6. PROFESSIONAL's recommendation of final payment will constitute an additional representation
by PROFESSIONAL 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. PROFESSIONAL may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment if, in
PROFESSIONAL's opinion, it would be incorrect to make such representations to OWNER. PROFESSIONAL
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 PROFESSIONAL'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. the Contract Price has been reduced by Written Amendment or Change Order.
14.7.3. OWNER has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
paragraph 13.14. or
14.7.4. of PROFESSIONAL's actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.9 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by PROFESSIONAL because claims
have been made against OWNER on account of CONTRACTOR's performance or furnishing of the Work or
Liens have been filed in connection with the Work or there are other items entitling OWNER to a off-set
against the amount recommended, but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate written notice (with a
copy to PROFESSIONAL) stating the reasons for such action.
Substantial Completion:
14.8. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, CONTRACTOR
shall notify OWNER and PROFESSIONAL in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for
items specifically listed by CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that PROFESSIONAL issue a
certificate of Substantial Completion. Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and
PROFESSIONAL shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If
PROFESSIONAL does not consider the Work substantially complete, PROFESSIONAL will notify
CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If PROFESSIONAL considers the Work substantially

complete, PROFESSIONAL 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 to make written objection to PROFESSIONAL as to any
provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objections, PROFESSIONAL concludes
that the Work is not substantially complete, PROFESSIONAL will, within fourteen days after submission of the
tentative certificate to OWNER notify CONTRACTOR in writing stating the reasons therefor. If, after
consideration of OWNER's, objections, PROFESSIONAL considers the Work substantially complete,
PROFESSIONAL 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 PROFESSIONAL believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial
Completion, PROFESSIONAL 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, insurance and warranties. Unless OWNER and
CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform PROFESSIONAL prior to PROFESSIONAL's issuing
the definitive certificate of Substantial Completion, PROFESSIONAL'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 at OWNER’s option of any substantially completed part of the Work which (i)
has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or (ii) OWNER, PROFESSIONAL, and
CONTRACTOR agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by
OWNER for its intended purpose without significant interference with CONTRACTOR’s performance of the
remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to 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
such part of the Work which OWNER believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If
CONTRACTOR agrees, CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER and PROFESSIONAL that said part of the
Work is substantially complete and request PROFESSIONAL to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion
for that part of the Work. CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and PROFESSIONAL in writing that
CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and
request PROFESSIONAL to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Within a
reasonable time after either such request, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and PROFESSIONAL shall make an
inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If PROFESSIONAL does not consider
that part of the Work to be substantially complete, PROFESSIONAL will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR,
in writing, giving the reasons therefor. If PROFESSIONAL considers that part of the Work to be substantially
complete, the provisions of paragraphs 14.8 and 14.9 will apply with respect to certification of Substantial
Completion of that part of the Work and the division of responsibility in respect thereof and access thereto.

14.10.2. OWNER may at any time request CONTRACTOR, in writing, to permit OWNER to take over
operation of any such part of the Work although it is not substantially complete. A copy of such request will be
sent to PROFESSIONAL and, within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and
PROFESSIONAL shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion, and
PROFESSIONAL will prepare a list of the items remaining to be completed or corrected thereon before final
payment. If CONTRACTOR does not object in writing to OWNER and PROFESSIONAL that such part of the
Work is not ready for separate operation by OWNER, PROFESSIONAL will finalize the list of items to be
completed or corrected and will deliver such list to OWNER and CONTRACTOR together with a written
recommendation as to the division of responsibilities pending final payment between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, utilities, insurance, warranties and
guarantees for that part of the Work which will become binding upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR at the time
when OWNER takes over such operation (unless they shall have otherwise agreed in writing and so informed
PROFESSIONAL). During such operation and prior to Substantial Completion of such part of the Work,
OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct items on said list and to
complete other related Work.
14.10.3. No occupancy or separate operation of part of the Work will be accomplished prior to
compliance with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of property insurance.
14.10.4. OWNER, may at its discretion, reduce the amount of retainage subject to Beneficial
Occupancy.
Final Inspection:
14.11. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the entire Work or an agreed upon portion
thereof is complete, PROFESSIONAL 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 defi-
ciencies.
Final Application for Payment:
14.12. After CONTRACTOR has completed all such corrections to the satisfaction of
PROFESSIONAL and OWNER and delivered in accordance with the Contract Documents all maintenance
and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance required
by 5.2, certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents and other documents, CONTRACTOR may
make application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments. The final Application for
Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously delivered) by: (i) all documentation called for in the
Contract Documents, including but not limited to the evidence of insurance required, (ii) consent of the surety,
if any, to final payment, and (iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to OWNER) of
all liens arising out of or filed in connection with the Work. In lieu of such releases or waivers of liens and as
approved by OWNER, CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or release in full and an affidavit of
CONTRACTOR that (i) the releases and receipts include all labor, services, material and equipment for which
a lien could be filed, and (ii) all payrolls, material and equipment bills and other indebtedness connected with
the Work for which OWNER or OWNER’s property might in any way be responsible have been paid or

otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor or supplier fails to furnish such a release or receipt in full,
CONTRACTOR may furnish a bond or other collateral satisfactory to OWNER to indemnify OWNER against
any lien.
14.12.1. No application for final payment will be accepted by OWNER until approved as-built
documents by CONTRACTOR are accepted and approved by PROFESSIONAL.
14.12.2. Notwithstanding any other provision of these contract documents to the contrary, OWNER
and PROFESSIONAL are under no duty or obligation whatsoever to any vendor, materials provider,
Subcontractor, laborer or other party to ensure that payments due and owing by CONTRACTOR to any of
them are or will be made. Such parties shall rely only on CONTRACTOR’s surety bonds for remedy of
nonpayment by him. CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and resolve all claims made by Subcontractors,
indemnifying OWNER and PROFESSIONAL for all claims arising from or resulting from Subcontractor or
supplier or material men or laborer services in connection with this project.
14.12.3. General Indemnity: CONTRACTOR shall indemnify OWNER and PROFESSIONAL for any
damages sustained, including lost profits, resulting from CONTRACTOR’s failure or refusal to perform the
work required by these contract documents.
Final Payment and Acceptance:
14.13. If, on the basis of PROFESSIONAL’s observation of the Work during construction and final
inspection and PROFESSIONAL’s review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying
documentation as required by the Contract Documents, PROFESSIONAL is satisfied that the Work has been
completed and CONTRACTOR’s other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled,
PROFESSIONAL will, within ten (10) working days after receipt of the final Application for Payment, indicate in
writing PROFESSIONAL’s recommendation of payment and present the Application to OWNER for payment.
At the same time PROFESSIONAL will also give written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the Work
is acceptable subject to the provisions of 14.6. Otherwise, PROFESSIONAL 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. After the presentation to
OWNER of the application and accompanying documentation, in appropriate form and substance and with
PROFESSIONAL’s recommendation and notice of acceptability, the amount recommended by
PROFESSIONAL will become due and will be paid by OWNER to CONTRACTOR.
14.14. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final completion of the Work is significantly delayed and
if PROFESSIONAL so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of CONTRACTOR’s final Application for Payment
and recommendation of PROFESSIONAL and without terminating the Agreement, make payment of the
balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be held by
OWNER for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Contract and if
bonds have been furnished as required in Article 5, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the
balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by CONTRACTOR to
PROFESSIONAL with the application for such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and
conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims.

CONTRACTOR's Continuing Obligation:
14.15. 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 PROFESSIONAL,
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 any review and approval of a Shop Drawing or
sample submission, nor the issuance of a notice of acceptability by PROFESSIONAL pursuant to paragraph
14.13, nor any correction of defective Work by OWNER will 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 (except as provided in paragraph 14.16).
Waiver of Claims:
14.16. The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute:
14.16.1. A waiver of all claims by OWNER against CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from
unsettled liens, from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursuant to 14.11, from failure to comply
with the Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees specified therein, or from
CONTRACTOR’s continuing obligations under the Contract Documents; and

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 PROFESSIONAL which will fix
the date on which Work will be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the Work on the date so fixed.
CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Time, or
both, directly attributable to any suspension if CONTRACTOR makes an approved claim therefor as provided
in Articles 11 and 12.
Termination For Cause:
15.2. Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:
15.2. 1. if CONTRACTOR commences a voluntary case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code
(Title 11, United States Code), as now or hereafter in effect, or if CONTRACTOR takes any equivalent or
similar action by filing a petition or otherwise under any other federal or state law in effect at such time relating
to the bankruptcy or insolvency;
15.2.2. if a petition is filed against CONTRACTOR under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code as now
or hereafter in effect at the time of filing, or if a petition is filed seeking any such equivalent or similar relief
against CONTRACTOR under any other federal or state law in effect at the time relating to bankruptcy or
insolvency;
15.2.3. if CONTRACTOR makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;
15.2.4. if a trustee, receiver, custodian or agent of CONTRACTOR is appointed under applicable law
or under contract, whose appointment or authority to take charge of property of CONTRACTOR is for the
purpose of enforcing a Lien against such property or for the purpose of general administration of such property
for the benefit of CONTRACTOR's creditors;
15.2.5. if CONTRACTOR admits in writing an inability to pay its debts generally, as they become due;

OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR (and the surety, if there be one) seven days' written notice and to
the extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, terminate the services of CONTRACTOR, exclude
CONTRACTOR from the site and take possession of the Work and of all CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances,
construction equipment and machinery at the site and use the same to the full extent they could be used by
CONTRACTOR (without liability to CONTRACTOR for trespass or conversion), incorporate in the Work all
materials and equipment stored at the site or for which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are stored
elsewhere, and finish the Work as OWNER may deem expedient. In such case CONTRACTOR shall not be
entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price
exceeds the direct, indirect and consequential costs of completing the Work (including but not limited to fees
and charges of PROFESSIONALs, architects, attorneys and other PROFESSIONALs and court and arbitration
costs) such excess will be paid to CONTRACTOR. If such costs exceed such unpaid balance,
CONTRACTOR shall pay the difference to OWNER. Such costs incurred by OWNER will be approved as to
reasonableness by PROFESSIONAL and incorporated in a Change Order, but when exercising any rights or
remedies under this paragraph, OWNER shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work
performed.
15.3. In the event OWNER terminates the contract for cause and it is subsequently judicially
determined that there was no cause for termination, the termination for convenience provision will be the
means for disposition of the balance of the contract obligations.
Termination for Convenience
15.4. Upon seven working days’ written notice to CONTRACTOR and PROFESSIONAL, OWNER
may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of OWNER, elect to terminate the
Contract. In such case, CONTRACTOR shall be paid (without duplication of any items):
15.4.1. For completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents
prior to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such
Work;
15.4.2. For expenses sustained prior to the effective date of termination in performing services and
furnishing labor, materials or equipment as required by the Contract Documents in connection with
uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such expenses;
15.4.3. For all claims, costs, losses and damages incurred in settlement of terminated contracts with
Subcontractors, suppliers and others; and
15.4.4. For reasonable expenses directly attributable to termination.
CONTRACTOR shall not be paid on account of loss of anticipated profits or revenue or other economic loss
arising out of or resulting from such termination.
15.5. Where CONTRACTOR's services have been so terminated by OWNER, the termination will
not affect any rights or remedies of OWNER against CONTRACTOR then existing or which may thereafter
accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due CONTRACTOR by OWNER will not release CONTRACTOR
from liability.

CONTRACTOR May Stop Work or Terminate:
15.6. If through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the Work is suspended for a period of more than
ninety calendar days by OWNER or under an order of court or other public authority, or PROFESSIONAL fails
to act on any Application for Payment within thirty days after it is submitted or OWNER fails for thirty-one days
to pay CONTRACTOR any sum finally determined to be due, then CONTRACTOR may upon seven working
days’ written notice to OWNER and PROFESSIONAL and provided OWNER or PROFESSIONAL did not
remedy such suspension or failure within that time, terminate the Agreement and recover from OWNER
payment on the same terms as provided in 15.2. In lieu of terminating the Agreement and without prejudice to
any other right or remedy, if PROFESSIONAL has failed to act on an Application for Payment within thirty days
after it is submitted or OWNER has failed for thirty-one calendar days after it is submitted to pay
CONTRACTOR any sum finally determined to be due, CONTRACTOR may upon seven days’ written notice to
OWNER and PROFESSIONAL stop the Work until receipt of payment of all such amounts due
CONTRACTOR, including interest thereon. The provisions of this paragraph are not intended to preclude
CONTRACTOR from making claim under Articles 11 and 12 for an increase in Contract Price or Contract Time
or otherwise for expenses or damage directly attributable to CONTRACTOR’s stopping Work as permitted by
this paragraph. The provisions of this paragraph shall not relieve CONTRACTOR of the obligations under
paragraph 6.30 to carry on the Work in accordance with the progress schedule and without delay during
disputes and disagreements with OWNER.

PROGRAM MANAGER:
17.10 The PROGRAM MANAGER for the project is CH2M HILL, 360 Bay Street, Suite 100 Augusta,
GA 30901.
The presence or duties of PROGRAM MANAGER’s personnel at the construction site, whether as onsite
representatives or otherwise, do not make PROGRAM MANAGER or PROGRAM MANAGER’s personnel in
any way responsible for those duties that belong to OWNER and / or the CONTRACTOR or other entities, and
do not relieve the CONTRACTOR or any other entity of their obligations, duties, and responsibilities, including,
but not limited to, all construction methods, means, techniques, sequences, and procedures necessary for
coordinating and completing all portions of the construction work in accordance with the construction Contract
Documents and any health and safety precautions required by such construction work.
PROGRAM MANAGER and PROGRAM MANAGER’s personnel have no authority to exercise any control
over any construction contractor or other entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health
or safety precautions and have no duty of inspecting, noting, observing, correcting, or reporting on health or
safety deficiencies of the CONTRACTOR(s) or other entity or any other persons at the site except PROGRAM
MANAGER’s own personnel.
The presence of PROGRAM MANAGER’s personnel at the construction site is for the purpose of providing to
OWNER a greater degree of confidence that the completed construction work will conform generally to the
construction documents and that the integrity of the design concept as reflected in the construction documents
has been implemented and preserved by the construction contractor(s). PROGRAM MANAGER neither
guarantees the performance of the construction contractor(s) nor assumes responsibility for construction
contractor’s failure to perform work in accordance with the construction documents.
For this AGREEMENT only, construction sites include places of manufacture for materials incorporated into
the construction work, and construction contractors include manufacturers of materials incorporated into the
construction work

GMP Report
Section 2.1 COST PROPOSAL
Parsons is pleased to present the following Scope of Services to be performed for
the J.B. Messerly WPCP Project. For a detailed scope of services, see section 2.2,
Article of the Contract.
Parsons has identified the key Managers for this project. Their responsibilities include monitoring
of labor utilization, maintenance of schedule and budget, assignment and supervision of staff and
all its subcontractors, preparation of construction cost estimates, regulatory meetings, quality con-
trol, bidding and construction of the project, and coordination with the PMT in a timely and profes-
sional manner (including submittal of monthly project progress meeting minutes and other deliver-
ables).
Parsons will revise the Project Management Plan (PMP) implemented on April 12, 2007 as devel-
oped during the Pre-construction Phase of the project. The update to the PMP is necessary to re-
flect changes in approach or philosophy toward execution of the project. Other plans to be imple-
mented and identified in the PMP will be a Site Specific Safety Plan and a Quality Management
Plan.
Other duties will include implementation of a master schedule and updates, progress payments,
project website/portal updates and Community Participation. Parsons will implement procedures
for processing requests for information, shop drawing review, material and equipment submittals,
schedule adjustments, change orders, payment request and maintenance of log. Parsons will also
coordinate with AUD and the Augusta Procurement Department in the preparation of the installa-
tion of the Owner Procured Equipment.
Parsons will support MDG to develop a Start-up, Close-Out, and Transfer Plan for each work
package. As the incremental turnover of the individual work package components are accom-
plished they will ultimately culminate in the startup and testing of the overall system. This system is
comprised of the critical path activities associated with the substantial completion of the new Aera-
tion Basins and all support systems. The plan details all equipment or subsystem start-ups, proc-
ess start-ups, sequencing schedules, and the activities and designated responsible parties for co-
ordination with the operating components. This plan will address potential “what-if” situations dur-
ing start-up. Parsons will work with the Augusta Utilities Department and MDG towards substantial
completion acceptance and beneficial occupancy. The specifications require that there be a 14
day Owner and Engineer led overall systems startup period where Parsons will lend startup sup-
port by way of coordinating subcontractors and vendor’s services. This will be followed by a 30 day
reliability test period where Parsons will also coordinate subcontractors and vendor’s activities and
services to provide “hand-on” support. Parsons is responsible for “hands-on” support only
and has no design, systems nor process performance responsibility. Parsons Construction
Manager will implement and coordinate all startup activities between the Subcontractors, Engi-
neers (MDG), Program Managers (CH2MHILL), and Client personnel (AUD).
Parsons is pleased to present to AUD the following GMP for the J. B. Messerly Wa-
ter Pollution Control Plant:
