Contractor will submit to the Engineer a partial payment
estimate filled out and signed by the Contractor on an
approved form covering the work performed during the period
covered by the partial payment estimate and supported by such
data as the Engineer may reasonably require. If payment is
requested on the basis of materials and equipment not
incorporated in the work but delivered and suitably stored at
or near the site, the partial payment estimate shall also be
accompanied by such supporting data, satisfactory to the
Owner, as will establish the Owner's title to the material and
equipment and protect his interest therein, including
applicable insurance. The Engineer will, wi thin ten days
after receipt of each partial payment estimate, either
indicate in writing his approval of payment and present the
partial payment estimate to the Owner, or return the partial
payment estimate to the Contractor indicating in writing his
reasons for refusing to approve payment. In the latter case,

the partial payment estimate. The Owner will, wi thin ten days
of presentation to him of an approved partial payment
GC-14
.
.
estimate, pay the Contractor a progress payment on the basis
of the approved partial payment estimate. The Owner shall
retain ten (10%) percent of the amount of each payment until
final completion and acceptance of all work covered by the
Contract Documents. The Owner at any time, however, after
fifty (50%) percent of the work has been completed, if he
finds that satisfactory progress is being made, shall reduce
retainage to five (5%) percent on the current and remaining
estimates. On completion and acceptance of a part of the work
on which the price is stated separately in the Contract
Documents, payment may be made in full, including retained
percentages, less authorized deductions.

cost of such major materials and equipment which are suitably
stored either at or near the site.

sole property of the Owner, but this provision shall not be

damaged work, or as a waiver of the right of the Owner to
require the fulfillment of all terms of the Contract
Documents.

issue a certificate attached to the final payment request that
the work has been accepted by him under the conditions of the

to the Contractor, except such sums as may be lawfully
retained by the Owner for saving the Owner or the Owner's
agents harmless from all claims growing out of the lawful
demands of Subcontractors, laborers, workmen, mechanics,
materialmen and furnisher of machinery and parts thereof,
equipment, tools and supplies, incurred in the furtherance of
the performance of the work. The Contractor shall, at the
Owner's request, furnish satisfactory evidence that all
obligations of the nature designated above' have been paid,
discharged, or waived. If the Contractor fails to do so, the
Owner may, after having notified the Contractor, either pay
unpaid bills or withhold from the Contractor's unpaid
compensation a sum of money deemed reasonably sufficient to
pay any and all such lawful claims until satisfactory evidence
is furnished that all liabilities have been fully discharged
whereupon payment to the Contractor shall be resumed, in
accordance with the terms of the Contract Documents, but in no
event shall the provisions of this sentence be construed to
impose any obligations upon the Owner to either the
Contractor, his Surety, or any third party. In paying any
unpaid bills of the Contractor, any payment so made by the
Owner shall be considered as a payment made under the Contract
Documents by the Owner to the Contractor and the Owner shall
-
-
GC-15
.
not be liable to the Contractor for any such payments made in
good faith.
.
5. If the Owner fails to make payment 30 days after approval by
the Engineer, in addition to other remedies available to the
Contractor, there shall be added to each such payment,
interest at the maximum legal rate commencing on the first day
after said payment is due and continuing until the payment is
received by the Contractor.
