Notice of the extent of the claim with supporting data shall be deliv- ered within sixty days after such occurrence (unless ENGI- NEER allows an additional period of time to ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim) and shall be accom- panied by the claimant's written statement that the adjust- ment claimed is the entire adjustment to which the claimant has reason to believe it is entitled as a result of the occurrence of said event. All claims for adjustment in the Contract Time I. 1 I I shall be determined by ENGINEER in accordance with para_ graph 9.11 if OWNER and CONTRAcrOR cannot otherwise agree. No claim for an adjustment in the Contract Time will be valid if not submitted in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph 12.1. 12.2. The Contract Time will be extended in an amount equal to time lost due to delays beyond the control of CON- TRAcrOR if a claim is made therefor as provided in para- graph 12.1.

At least twenty days before each progress payment is scheduled' (but not more often than once a month). CON- TRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for review an Appli- cation for Payment filled out and signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Worle 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 lo 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 ofan liens, charges, security interests and encumbrances (which are hereinafter in these General Conditions referred to as "Liens") and evidence that lhe materials and equipment are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which will be sat- isfactory to OWNER.

Ten days after presentation of the Application for Pay- ment with ENGINEER's recommendation. the amount rec- ommended will (subject to the provisions of the last sentence of paragraph 14.7) become due and when due will be paid by OWNER to CONTRACTOR. 14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a 26 I I repre~entation by ENGINEER 10 OWNER. based on ENGI- NEER'~ on-site observations of Ihe Work in progress as an experienced and qualified de~ign professional and on ENGI- NEER's review of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules that the Work has pro- gressed to the point indicated: that. to Ihe best of ENGI- NEER's knowledge. information and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Document~ (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 deIermination of quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work under paragraph 9.10. and to any other qualifi- cations ~Iated in the recommendation I: and that CONTRAC- TOR is entitled to paymenI of the amount recommended. However. by recommending any such payment ENGINEER' will not thereby be deemed to have represented that exhaus- tive or continuous on-site inspections have been made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in Ihe Contract Documents or that there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle CONTRAC- TOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or OWNER to withhold payment to CONTRACTOR. I I I I I I I 14.6. ENGINE)::R's recommendation of final paymenI will constitute an additional representation by ENGINEER to OWNER that the conditions precedent to CONTRAC- TOR's being entitled to final payment as set forth in paragraph 14.13 have been fulfilled. I I 14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment if. in ENGINEER's opinion. it would be incorrecI to make such representations to OWNER. ENGINEER may also refuse to recommend any such pay- ment. 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 ENGIN EER 's opinion to protect OWNER from loss because: I I 14.7.1. the Work is defectil'e. or completed Work has been damage? requiring correction or replacement. I 14.7.1. the Contract Price has been reduced by Writ- ten Amendment or Change Order. I 14.7.3. OWN ER has been required to correct deft!(.- th'e Work or complete Work in accordance with paragraph 13.14. or I 14.7.4. of ENGINEER's actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the eVents enumerated in paragraphs 15.~.1 through 15.:!.9 inclusive. I OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by ENGINEER because claims have been made against OWNER on account ofCONTRACTOR's per- formance or furnishing of the Work or Liens have been filed in connection with the Work or there are other items entitling I I OWNER to a set-off against the amount recommended. but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate writIen notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) 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 ENGINEER in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that ENGI- NEER issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Within a reasonable time thereafter. OWNER. CONTRACTOR and' ENGINEER shall make an inspecIion ot'the Work to deter- mine the status of completion. If ENGINEER does not con- sider the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers Ihe Work substantially complete. ENGINEER will prepare and deliver 10 OWNER a tentative certificate of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion. There shall be atIached to the certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or cor- rected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which to make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objec- lions. ENGINEER concludes [hat the Work is not substan- tially complete. ENGINEER 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. ENGINEER considers the Work subslantially complete, ENGINEER will within said fourteen days execute and deliver 10 OWN ER and CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be com. pleted or corrected) reflecIing such changes from the tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after consider- ation of any objections from OWN ER. At Ihe time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial Completion ENGI- NEER will deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a wrinen recommendation as to division of responsibilities pending final payment between OWNER and CONTRACTOR WiIh respect to security. operation. safety. maintenance. heat. utilities, insurance and warranties. Unless OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree lJtherwise in writing and so inform ENGIN EER prior to ENGINEER's issuing the definitive certificate of Substantial ClJmpletion. ENGINEER's afore- said recommendation will be binding on OWNER and CON- TRACTOR until final payment. 14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude CON- TRACTOR from Ihe Work after the date of Substantial ClJm- pletion, but OWN ER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete lJr correct item~ on the tentative list. Partial Uti/i=ation: 14.10. Use by OWNER of any finished part of the Work. which has specificalI~' been identified in the Contract Do~u- 27 I' 1 ments. or which OWNER. ENGINEER and CONTRAC- TOR agree constitutes a separately functioning and useable part of the Work that can be used by OWNER without sig- nificant interference with CONTRACTOR's performance of the remainder of the Worle. may be accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work subject to the follow- ing: 1 I 14.10.1. OWNER at any time may request CON- TRACTOR 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 CON- TRACTOR agrees. CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that said part of the Work is substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. CON- TRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and ENGI- NEER in writing that CONTRACTOR considers any such pan of the Work ready for its intended use and substan- tially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a certif- icate of Substantial Completion for that pan of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request. OWNER. CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inspec- tion of that pan of the Worle to determine its s.atus of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider that part of the Worle to be substantially complete. ENGINEER will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers that pan of the Work to be substantially complete. the provisions of para- graphs 14.8 and 14.9 will apply with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of that pan of the Work and the division of responsibility in respect thereof and access thereto. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 14.10.1. OWNER may at any time request CON- TRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to take over operation of any such pan of the Work although it is not substantially complete. A copy of such request will be sent to ENGINEER and within a reasonable time there- after OWNER. CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inspection of that pan of the Work to determine its status of completion and will prepare a list of the items remaining to be completed or corrected thereon before final payment. If CONTRACTOR does not object in writ. ing to OWNER and ENGINEER that such part of the Work is not ready for separate operation by OWNER. ENGINEER 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. insur- ance. warranties and guarantees for that part of the Work which will become binding upon OWNER and CON- TRACTOR at the time when OWNER takes over such operation (unless they shall have otherwise agreed in writ- ing and so informed ENGINEER). 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. 1 I 1 1 1 I 1 I 14.10.3. No occupancy or separate operation of part of the Work will be accomplished prior 10 compliance with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of property insurance. Final Inspection: 14.11. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete. ENGI- NEER will make a final inspection with OWNER and CON- TRACTOR and will notify CONTRACTOR in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defecrive. CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to remedy such defi- ciencies. FilUll. Applil:aJi.on for PaymetU: 14.12.

CONTRACTOR may make application for final payment following the pro- cedure for progress payments. The final Application for Pay- ment shall be accompanied by all documentation called for in the Contract Documents. together with complete and legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to OWNER) of all Liens arising out of or filed in connection with the Worle. In lieu thereof and as approved by OWNER. CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or releases in full: an affidavit of CON- TRACTOR that the releases and receipts include all labor, services. material and equipment for which a Lien could be filed. and that all payrolls. material and equipment bills. and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which OWNER orOWNER's property might in any way be respon- sible. have been paid or otherwise satisfied: and consen.t of the surety, if any, to tinal payment. If any Subcontractor or Supplier fails to furnish a release or receipt in full. CON- TRACTOR may furnish a Bond or other collateral satisfac- tory to OWNER to indemnify OWNER against any Lien. FilUll. Payment and Acceptance: 14.13. If. on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of the Work during construction and final inspection. and ENGINEER's review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying documentation-all as required by the Contract Documents.

ENGI- NEER will. within len days after receipt of the final Appli- cation for Payment, 'indicate in writing ENGINEER's rec- ommendation of payment and present the Application to OWNER for payment. Thereupon ENGINEER will give written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of paragraph 14.16. 28 I I Otherwise. ENGINEER will return the Application to CON- TRACTOR. indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend final payment, in which case CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Appli- cation.

I I I 14.14. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR. final com- pletion of the Work is significantly delayed and if ENGI- N EER so confinns. OWNER shall. upon receipt of CON- TRACTOR's final Applic:ltion for Payment and recommen- dation of ENGINEER. and wiIhout terminating the Agree- ment. 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 correcIed is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agree- ment. and if Bonds have been furnished as required in para- graph 5.1. the written consent of Ihe surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully com- pleted and accepted shall be submitted by CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER with the Application for such payment.
