December 20, 1995
Report of Independent Certified Public Accountant
Two State Construction Company, Inc.
Thomson, Georgia
I have audited the financial statements of Two State Construction
Company, Inc. as of June 30, 1995 and June 30, 1994 and for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the company I s management. My responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
.;
i
I
i
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I plan and perfom the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 'Whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. 1m. audit includes
examining, on a test basis', evidence supporting the arrounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. 1m. audit also includes
assessing accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. . I believe that my audit provides a
reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all
waterial respects, the financial position of the company at June
30, 1995 and June 30, 1994 and the results of its operations for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

SECTION 13152
I
SWIMMING POOLS AND EQUIPMENT
I
A. GENERAL
I
All work called for in this section shall be subject to the project general and special conditions. Contractors
doing work of this section shall refer thereto. This section of the specifications is intended to describe the
swimming pool construction, swimming pool equipment instaIlation and service. Only contractors capable
of meeting the qualifications and furnishing all work called for in this section shall be considered. AIl work
called for in this section shall be, and remain through the warranty periods, the sole responsibility of this
Contractor.
I
I
Preference will be given to those contractors supplying the complete recirculation and filtration equipment
requirements for this job from one manufacturer so that all instructions, service and warranty claims will be
handled by one organization specializing in this work.
I
A.OJ Substitutions
I
1. The Owner and the Architect have made a detailed investigation before selecting the specified
swimming pool recirculation, filtration and other special pool equipment. AIl base bids shall
include this equipment without substitution since the operation and maintenance of this swimming
pool facility has been predicated upon the specified equipment.
I
2. The Owner reserves the right to reject any bid if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of,
such bidder fails to satisfy the Owner that such bidder is properly qualified to carry out the
obligation of the contract and to complete work described or if bidder does not meet the
qualifications stated herein.
I
A.OIl Trade Names
I
The attention of bidders and all other parties is called to the procedure under this Article for the submission
of trade names, brand names, or names of manufacturers for approval. This procedure takes the place of
what is commonly known as an "or equal" provision. The successful bidder may not furnish products of
any trade name, brand name, or manufacturers' name except those designated in the contract documents
including published addenda.
I
I
I
1.
When reference is made in the contract documents to trade names, brand names, or to the names
of manufacturers, such references are made solely to indicate what products may be furnished on
base bid and are not intended to restrict competitive bidding. If it is desired to use products or
trade or brand names of manufacturers which are different from those mentioned in the bidding
documents, application for the approval of the use of such products must reach the hands of the
Architect at least ten (10) days prior to the date set for the opening of bids.
I
2.
This revision is a restriction which applies only to the party making a submittal, therefore, the
aforesaid restriction does not inhibit the architect from adding trade names, brand names, or names
of manufacturers by addendum. The burden of proving acceptability of a proposed product rests
with applicant and the submittal must be accompanied by technical data in support of the
application. The architect will give consideration to reports from reputable independent testing
laboratories, verified experienced records showing the reputation of the proposed product with
I
I

3.
I
previous users, evidence of reputation of the manufacturer for prompt delivery, evidence of
reputation of the manufacturer for efficiency and servicing its products, or any other written
information that is helpful in the circumstances. The application to the architect for approval of
a proposed product must be accompanied by a schedule setting forth in which respects the materials
or equipment submitted for consideration differ from the materials or equipment designated in the
bidding documents. The degree of proof required for approval of a proposed product as acceptable
for use in place of named product or named products is that amount of proof necessary to convince
a reasonable person beyond all doubt. To be approved, a proposed product must also meet or
exceed all express requirements of the contract documents.
I
I
I
If the submittal is approved by the architect, an addendum will be issued outlining the alternate bid
to all prospective bidders. Issuance of an addendum is a representation to all bidders that the
architect in the exercise of professional discretion established that the product submitted for
approval is acceptable and meets or exceeds all express requirements. In the event a submittal shall
have been rejected by the architect and there shall have been a request for a conference as provided
in this article pursuant to which conference the said submittal shall have been found to comply with
the requirements of this article, a separate addendum covering the submittal will be issued prior to
the opening of bid.
I
I
I
4.
In order for the architect to prepare an addendum intelligently, an application for approval of a
product must be accompanied by a copy of the published recommendations of the manufacturer
for the installation of the product together with a complete schedule of changes in the drawings
and specifications, if any, which must be with the recommendations of the manufacturer of the
product.
I
I
5.
Unless requests for approvals of other products have been received and approvals have been
published by addendum in accordance with the above procedure, the successful bidder may furnish
no products of any trade name, brand name or manufacturer except those designated in the contract
documents.
I
6.
Any party who alleges that rejection of a submittal is the result of bid conference PROVIDED: that
the request for said conference, submitted in writing, shall have reached the Architect at least five
days prior to the date set for the opening of bids, time being of the essence.

payments in accordance with the Contract Documents,
4.3.5 Waiver of Claims: FInal Payment. The making of fmal
payment sha.ll constitute a waiver of ClaimS by the Owner
except those arising from:

9.2.1 Before the first Application for Payment, the Contnctor
shall submit to the Architect a schedule of values allocated to
various portions of the Work, prepared in such form and sup-

if provided for elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
9.3.1.1 Such appliCltions may include requests for payment on

authorized by Construction Change Directives but not yet
included in Change Orders.
9.3.1.2 Such applications may not include requests for pay-

Owner a Certificate for Payment, with a copy to the Contrac-
.or, for such amount as the Architect determines is properly
ue, or notify the Contractor and Owner in writing of the
Architect's reasons for withholding certification in whole or in
part as provided in subparagraph 9.5.1.
9.4.2 The issilllflce of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a
representation by the Architect to the Owner, based on the
Architect's observations at the site and the data comprising the
Application for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the
point indic:ued and that, to the best of the Architect's knowl-
edge, information and belief, quality of the Work is in accor-
dance with the Contract DocumentS. The foregoing representa-
tions are subject to an evallUtion of the Work for conformance
with the Contract DocumentS upon Substantial Completion, to
resultS of subsequent testS and inspections, to minor deviations
from the Contract DocumentS correctable prior to completion
and to specific qualifications expressed by the Architect. The
issilllflce of a Certificate for Payment will further constitute a
representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the
amount certified. However, the issuance of a Certificate for Pay-
ment will not be a representation that the Architect has (1)
made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the
quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed construction
means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3)
reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors
and material suppliers and other data requested by the Owner
to substantiate the Contractor's right to payment or (4) made
examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contrac-
tor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract
Sum.
.9.5
.
DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD CERTlACATlON
9.5.1 The Architect may decide not to certify payment and
may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in part, to
the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Owner, if in the
Architect's opinion the representations to the Owner required
by Subparagraph 9.4.2 cannot be made. If the Architect is
unable to certify payment in the amount of the Application, the
Architect will notify the Contractor and Owner as provided in
Subparagraph 9.4.1. If the Contractor and Architect cannot
agree on a revised amount, the Architect will promptly issue a
Certificate for Payment for the amount for which the Architect
is able to make such representations to the Owner. The Archi-
tect may also decide not to certify payment or, because of
subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations,
may nullify the whole or a part of a Certificate for Payment
previously issued, to such e.'{tent as may be necessary in the
Architect's opinion to protect the Owner from loss because of:
,
.1 defective Work not remedied;
.2 third party claims filed or re:LSonable evidence indicat-
ing probable ftIing of such claims;
.3 f:tilure of the Contractor to make paymentS prop-
erly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials or
equipment;
.4 re:LSonable evidence that the Work c:mnot be com.
pleted for the unp:tid balance of the Contr:lct Sum;
.5 damage to the Owner or another contr:lctor;
.6 re:LSonable evidence that the Work will not be com-
pleted within the Contr:lct Time, and that the unpaid
balance would not be adequate to cover actual or
liquidated damages for the ;illticipated delay; or
.7 persistent f:J.ilure to carry out the Work in :lccordance
with the ContrJct Documents.
9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding certification are
removed, certification will be made for amountS previously
withheld.
9.6 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
9.6.1 After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment,
the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the
time provided in the Contract DocumentS, and shall so notify
the Architect.
9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontr:lctor,
upon receipt of payment from the Owner, Out of the amount
paid to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's por-
tion of the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is
entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from paymentS
to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion
of the Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement
with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make
paymentS to Sub-subcontractors in similar manner.
9.6.3 The Architect will, on request, furnish to a Subcontrac-
tor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of com-
pletion or amountS applied for by the Contractor and action
taken thereon by the Architect and Owner on account of por-
tions of the Work done by such Subcontractor.
9.6.4 Neither the Owner nor Architect shall have an obligation
to payor to see to the payment of money to a Subcontractor
except as may otherwise be required by law.
9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner
similar to that provided in Subparagraphs 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and 9.6.4.
9.6.6 A Certificate for Payment, a progress payment, or partial
or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall
not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the
Contract DocumentS.
9.7 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
9.7.1 If the Architect does not issue a Certificate for Payment,
through no fault of the Contractor, within seven days after
receipt of the Contractor's Application for Payment, or if the
Owner does not pay the Contractor within seven days after the
date established in the Contract DocumentS the amount cer-
tified by the Architect or awarded by arbitration, then the Con-
tractor may, upon seven additional days' written notice to the
Owner and Architect, stOp the Work until payment of the
amount owing has been received. The Contr:lct Time shall be
extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be
increased by the amount of the Contr:lctor's reasonable costS of
shut-down, delay and start-up, which shall be accomplished as
provided in Article 7.
9.8 SUBSTANTIAL COMPlETION
9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the
Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is suffi-
ciently complete in accordance with the Contract DocumentS
so the Owner c:m occupy or utilize the Work for itS intended
use.
9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a por-
tion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is
substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare and submit
to the Architect a comprehensive list of items to be completed
or corrected. The Contr:lctor shall proceed promptly to com-
plete and correct items on the list. F:tilure to include an item on
such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contr:lctor to
complete all Work in :lccord:1nce with the Contr:lct Docu-
mentS. Upon receipt of the Contr:lctOr's list, the Architect will
make;ill inspection to determine whether the Work or desig-

Architecc's inspection discloses any item, whether or noc
included on the Contraccor's list, which is not in accordance
with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contrac-
tor shall, before issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Com-
pletion, complete or correct such item upon notific:nion by the
Architect. The Contraccor shall then submit a request for
an ocher inspection by the Architect to determine Substantial
Completion. When the Work or designated portion thereof is
substantially complete, the Architect will prepare a Certific:ne
of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Sub-
stantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the
Owner and Contraccor for security, maintenance, he:lt, utilities,
damage co the Work and insurance, and shall fix the time
within which the Contractor shall fmish all items on the list
accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Con-
tract Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial
Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless
ocherwise provided in the Certificate of Substantial Comple-
tion. The Certificate of Substantial CompletiOn shall be sub-
mined to the Owner and Contraccor for their written accep-
tance of responsibilities assigned to them in such CertifiC:J.te.
9.8.3 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work or designated
portiOn thereof and upon applic:ltion by the Contractor and
certification by the Architect, the Owner shall make payment,
reflecting adjustment in recainage, if any, for such Work or por-
tion thereof as provided in the Con[f:).ct Documents.
9.9 PARTIAL OCCUPANCY OR USE
9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or par-
tially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such
portion is designated by separate agreement with the Contrac.
cor, provided such occupancy or use is consented co by the
insurer as required under Subparagraph 11.3 .11 and authorized
by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such
partial occupancy or use may commence whether or noc the
portion is subscantially complete, provided the Owner and
Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities
assigned to e:lch of them for payments, recainage if any, secu-
rity, maintenance, he:n, utilities, damage to the Work and insur-
ance, and have agreed in writing conceming the period for cor-
rection of the Work and commencement of warranties
required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor
considers a portion subscantially complete, the Contractor shall
prepare and submit a list to the Architect as provided under
subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occu-
pancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of
the progress of the Work shall be determined by wrinen agree-
ment between the Owner and Contnctor or, if no agreement is
re:lched, by decision of the Architect.
9.9.2 Immediately prior co such partial occupancy or use, the
Owner, Contnctor and Architect shall jointly inspect the are:l
to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to
determine and record the condition of the Work.
9,9.3 Unless Otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use
of a portion or portions of the Work shall nO[ constitute accep-
tance of Work not complying with the requirements of the
ContrJct Documents.
9.10 FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT

for tin;u inspection :ll1U JcceptJnce :.ll1d upon receipt of :.I tin:.1l

able under the Contract Documents and the Contnct fully per-
formed, the ArchiteCt will promptly issue a fmal Certificate for
Payment stating that to the best of the Architect's knowledge,
information and belief, and on the basis of the Architecc's
observations and inspections, the Work has been completed in
accordance with terms and conditions of the Contnct Docu-
ments and that the entire balance found to be due the Contrac-
cor and noted in said fmal Certificate is due and payable. The
Architect's fmal Certific:lte for Payment will constitute a further
representation that conditions listed in subparagraph 9.10.2 as
precedent to the Contraccor's being entitled to final payment
have been fulfilled.

9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remammg retained
percentage shall become due until the Contnctor submits to
the Architect (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and
equipment, and ocher indebtedness connected with the Work
for which the Owner or the Owner's property might be
responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner)

tnctor refuses to fumish a release or waiver required by the
Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the
Owner co indemnify the Owner against such lien. If such lien

9.10.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final com-
pletion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the

completion, and the Architect so confirms, the Owner shall,
upon applic:ltion by the Contnctor and certific:ltion by the
Architect, and without terminating the Contract, make payment
of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed
and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work nOt fully com-
pleted or corrected is less than retainage stipulated in the Con-
tnct Documents, and if bonds have been fumished, the written
consent of surety to payment of the balance due for that por-
tion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submit.
ted by the Contraccor to the Architect prior to certification of
such payment. Such payment shall be made under terms and
conditions goveming final payment. except that it shall not
constitute J ~vaiver of claims. The making of final payment shall

contractOr or mJterial supplier shall constitute a waiver or

1. Ensure that valves are dry and internally protected against rust and corrosion.
2. Protect valves against damage to threaded ends, flange faces, and weld ends.
3. Set valves in best position for handling. Set valves closed to prevent rattling.
B. Storage: Use the following precautions for valves, including fIre hydrants, during storage:
1. Do not remove end protectors unless necessary for inspection; then reinstall for
storage.
2. Protect valves from wea1her. Store valves indoors and maintain temperature higher
than ambient dew point temperature. Support valves off ground or pavement in
watertight enclosures when outdoor storage is necessary.
.
C.
Handling: Use sling to handle valves and fIre hydrants whose size requires handling by
crane or lift. Rig valves to avoid damage to exposed valve parts. Do not use handwheels or
stems as lifting or rigging points.
D. Deliver pipes and tubes with factory-applied end-caps. Maintain end-caps through shipping,
storage, and handling to prevent pipe-end damage and to prevent entrance of dirt, debris, and
moisture.
E. Protect stored pipes and tubes from moisture and dirt. Elevate above grade. Do not exceed
structural capacity of floor when storing inside.

protection before surface preparation and pai?ting.
I. After completing painting operations in each space or area, reinstall items removed
using workers skilled in the trades involved.
B. Cleaning: Before applying paint or other surface treatments, clean the substrates of
substances that could impair the bond of the various coatings. Remove oil and grease before
cleaning.
I. Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning
process will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces.
.
C.
Surface Preparation: Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturer's
written instructions for each particular substrate condition and as specified.
1. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime.
2. Cementitious Materials: Prepare concrete masonry block, surfaces to be painted.
Remove efflorescence, chalk, dust, dirt, grease, oils, and release agents. Roughen
as required to remove glaze. If hardeners or sealers have been used to improve
curing, use mechanical methods of surface preparation.
a. Use abrasive blast-cleaning methods if recommended by paint
manufacturer.
b. Determine alkalinity and moisture content of surfaces by performing
appropriate tests. If surfaces are sufficiently alkaline to cause the finish
paint to blister and bum, correct this condition before application. Do not
paint surfaces where moisture content exceeds that permitted in
manufacturer's written instructions.
3. Ferrous Metals: Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop
coated; remove oil, grease, dirt, loose mill scale, and other foreign substances. Use
solvent or mechanical cleaning methods that comply with the Steel Structures

damaged. Wire-brush, clean with solvents recommended by paint
manufacturer, and touch up with the same primer as the shop coat.
.
4. Galvanized Surfaces: Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents
so surface is free of oil and surface contaminants. Remove pretreatment from
galvanized sheet metal fabricated from coil stock by mechanical methods.
D. Materials Preparation: Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturer's written
instructions.
1. Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition, free of
foreign materials and residue.
2. Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density. Stir as
required during application. Do not stir surface film into material. If necessary,
remove surface film and strain material before using.
3. Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended
limits.
E. Tinting: Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to simplify identification of each coat when
multiple coats of the same material are applied. Tint undercoats to match the color of the
finish coat, but provide sufficient differences in shade of undercoats to distinguish each
separate coat.
3.03 APPLICATION
A.
General: Apply paint according to manufacturer's written instructions. Use applicators and
techniques best suited for substrate and type of material being applied.
.
1. Paint colors, surface treatments, and finishes are indicated in the schedules.
2. Do not paint over dirt, rust, scale, grease, moisture, scuffed surfaces, or conditions
detrimental to formation of a durable paint film.
3. Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used.
4. The term "exposed surfaces" includes areas visible when permanent or built-in
fixtures, convector covers, covers for fmned-tube radiation, grilles, and similar
components are in place. Extend coatings in these areas, as required, to maintain
the system integrity and provide desired protection.
S. Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed
surfaces. Before the final installation of equipment, paint surfaces behind
permanently fixed equipment or furniture with prime coat only.
6. Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat, nonspecular black paint where visible
through registers or grilles.
7. Paint back sides of access panels and removable or hinged covers to match exposed
surfaces.
8. Finish exterior doors on tops, bottoms, and side edges the same as exterior faces.
9. Sand lightly between each succeeding enamel or varnish coat.
B. Scheduling Painting: Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned, pretreated, or
otherwise prepared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before
subsequent surface deterioration.
96-099/8-96
PAINTING
09900 - 6
.
.
I.
The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of
application method. Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has
cured as recommended by the manufacturer. If sanding is required to produce a
smooth, even surface according to manufacturer's written instructions, sand between
applications.
Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted.
If undercoats, stains, or other conditions show through final coat of paint, apply
additional coats until paint film is of uniform finish, color, and appearance. Give
special attention to ensure edges, corners, crevices, welds, and exposed fasteners
