The Contractor shall keep one set of drawings and specifications in good order at the job site and make them available to the City's Representative and to the Contractor's Representatives. Ty (c) The drawings and/or plans will show conditions as the City believes them to exist; but it is not intended or to be inferred that the conditions as shown thereon constitute a representation by the City that such conditions are existent.

Section 35. Shop Drawings Submitted by the Contractor (a) No portion of the work requiring a shop drawing submittal shall be commenced until the submittal has been reviewed by the City and returned to the Contractor with a notation that the City has completed its review of the shop drawing.

The superintendent or foreman shall comply with the direction or instruction promptly and shall relay the City's communication to the Contractor or its designated representative. Section 37. Inspection of Work (a) The City shall have access to the worksite at all times to review and/or inspect the progress of the work, the workmanship and the material being used. (b) Whenever the Contractor changes its hours of operation, notice shall be approved by the City's Representative one week prior to institution of the change.

Defective work shall be corrected, notwithstanding the fact that the City's Representative may have previously accepted the defective work. Section 38. Correction of Defective and/or Unauthorized Work (a) All work that has been rejected shall be corrected, or removed and replaced by the Contractor, at the City's direction. Any remedial work will be done in a manner acceptable to the City. The Contractor shall pay the remediation and/or removal and replacement costs.

In addition, the City may order the Contractor to remove, at the Contractor's expense, any extra or unauthorized work. (b) The Contractor must comply promptly with any order made by the City under the provisions of this article. If the Contractor fails to comply with the City's orders, the City may in its discretion cause defective work to be corrected by its own forces or by another contractor. The amount that the City paid to correct the defective work will be deducted from any monies due or to become due to the Contractor. Section 39. Errors or Discrepancies Noted by the Contractor (a) If the Contractor, either before commencing work or in the course of the work, finds any discrepancy between the contract, especially the plans, specifications, drawings, and boring logs, or between any of them and the physical conditions at the worksite, or finds any error or omission in any of the plans, specifications, drawings, boring logs, or in any survey, the Contractor shall promptly notify the City in writing of such discrepancy, error, or omission. If the Contractor observes that any plans, specifications, or drawings are at variance with any applicable law, ordinance, regulation, order or decree, Contractor shall promptly notify the City in writing of such deviation or conflict. (b) The City, upon receipt of such notice, shall promptly investigate the circumstances and give appropriate instruction to the Contractor consistent with Section 29. Until such instruction is given by the City Engineer, any work done by the Contractor, either directly or indirectly after its discovery of such error, discrepancy, omission, deviation or conflict, will be at the Contractor's own risk. The Contractor shall bear all costs arising from any work that incorporates such error, discrepancy, omission, deviation or conflict. Section 40. Equipment The Contractor shall furnish equipment and facilities to perform the work to the industry standard in - D-10 - accordance with the plans and specifications. Such equipment and facilities must be in a good state of repair, be maintained in such state during the progress of the work, and shall meet all requirements of applicable ordinances and laws. No worn or obsolete equipment shall be used, and in no case shall the manufacturer's rating of capacity for any equipment be exceeded. Article 5. MISCELLANEOUS Section 41. Damages for Delay (a) The Contractor acknowledges the City's desire that the project be completed on or before the date specified in the Contract. The Contractor also acknowledges that if its work is not completed on or before said date, the City will incur substantial damages that cannot be ascertained at this time. Accordingly, the Contractor shall pay to the City any and all damages caused by the Contractor's delay in completing the work under the Contract. (b) If the work is not completed in accordance with the foregoing, it is mutually agreed that the City will suffer damage, that it will be impractical and unfeasible to determine the amount of actual damage. Therefore, the Contractor will pay the, City, as fixed and liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of $1,500.00, for each and every calendar day of delay, and that the Contractor and its Surety will be liable for the amount thereof. The Contractor, however, will not be charged liquidated damages because of any delays in the completion of the work due to Force Majeure or acts of the City, acts of another Contractor in the performance of a Contract with the City, and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. (c) The Contractor shall within ten (10) days from the beginning of any such delay (unless the City grants a further period of time prior to the date of final settlement of the Contract) notify the City in writing of the cause of delay. Upon notification of a delay, the City shall ascertain the facts and extent of the delay and extend the time for completing the work if in its sole discretion its findings justify such an extension. The City's findings shall be final and conclusive on the parties hereto. (d) The City shall have the right to extend the time for completion if it determines such extension to be in the City's best interest. If the City extends the time limit for completing the work by way of a change order at the request of the Contractor, and for other than Force Majeure, it is understood and agreed that such time extension will increase the City's expenses. These expenses include, but are not limited to, the costs associated with engineering, inspection, supervision, incidental and overhead expenses that are directly chargeable to the Contract and that accrue during the period of extension. Therefore, the Contractor acknowledges that the City shall be reimbursed for its expenses before the final payment of the ten percent (10%) retention is made. Section 42. Guarantee The Contractor guarantees all work against defective workmanship, and the materials furnished, for a period of one year from the date the City accepts the work in accordance with Section 3(c). The Contractor shall repair and replace any and all such defective work, together with any other work which may be, displaced in so doing, at no cost to the City. The Contractor is not responsible for the repair or replacement of material damaged through ordinary wear and tear, usual abuse, or neglect. The City may proceed to repair or replace defective work and/or material if the Contractor fails to do so within a week after Contractor's receipt of written notice from the City. The Contractor agrees to pay the costs and charges the City incurs in repairing and replacing defective work and/or material upon demand. Section 43. Risk of Loss Prior to Final Acceptance Except as set forth hereinabove relating to Force Majeure, all risk of loss resulting from total or partial destruction of the work, or any part thereof, or any damage thereto, prior to final acceptance of the work by City, shall be borne by the Contractor regardless of the cause. The Contractor, at its sole cost, shall repair or replace such damaged or destroyed work to its prior undamaged condition before being entitled to additional, progress payments, the final progress payment or payment of the retention. Such total or partial - D-11 - destruction or damage shall not excuse the Contractor from completion of the work in accordance with the provisions of this Contract. Section 44. Termination (a) Termination (Contractor's Default) (1) The Contractor will be in default if it does any of the following: (a) declares bankruptcy, becomes insolvent, or assigns its assets for the benefit of its creditors; (b) disregards or violates a material provision of the Contract or the City's instructions; (c) fails to prosecute the work according to the approved construction schedule; (d) fails to provide a qualified superintendent, representative, competent workers, or subcontractors; and/or (e) fails to provide materials or equipment that meets the requirements of the plans, specifications, and drawings. The City, will notify the Contractor in writing of such default. Upon receipt of written notice of default, the Contractor shall, at Contractor's expense, preserve at the project site, all construction materials and equipment, and shall undertake immediate steps to remedy such default. (2) If the Contractor fails to remedy such default within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of written notice of default, the City may, at its option, terminate the right to proceed with the work to which default has occurred or may terminate the Contract. Written notice will be provided to the Contractor, but not to the Contractor's sureties. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Contractor shall at its expense and for the work affected by any such termination: (i) assist the City in making an inventory of all material and equipment located at the site, enroute to the site, in storage or manufacture away from the site, and/or on order from suppliers; assign subcontracts, material and equipment supplier contracts, and equipment rental agreements to the City, as designated by the City; and remove from the site all construction material and equipment listed in said inventory other than the material and equipment which are to be used by the City in completing the Contract. (3) The City shall have the right to complete the work to which the termination applies. The Contractor agrees that the City shall have the right, for such purpose and for as long as necessary, to designate in writing, take possession of and use any or all of the material, plant, tools, equipment, supplies and property furnished by the Contractor. (4) The cost of completing such work, together with reasonable costs for administering any contract for completion, will be charged to the Contractor. The City will deduct these costs from the sum due or the sum that may become due to the Contractor. If these costs exceed the sum which would have been payable under the Contract, then the Contractor and/or its sureties shall be liable for and, upon written notice from the City, shall promptly pay the excess amount to the City. The City shall not be required to retain the bidder with the lowest estimate for completion of the work. The City may make any expenditures that, in its sole judgment, best accomplish the completion of the project. If such costs are less than the balance that would have been due, the Contractor shall have no claim to the difference. The City may, however, decide to reimburse the Contractor or the Contractor's sureties for costs incurred for materials, tools, equipment, property, and labor which were used in performing the work and of which the City shall have received the benefit. In computing the costs, as it relates to equipment owned by the Contractor, the salvage value at completion of the work shall be deducted from the depreciated value at the time the Contract was terminated. (b) Optional Termination of Contract by City (Contractor Not at Fault) City may terminate the Contract upon ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor, if it is found that - D-12 - reasons beyond the control of either the City or the Contractor make it impossible or against the City's interests to complete the work. In such a case, the Contractor shall have no claims against the City except for (1) the cost of the work performed up to the date the Contract is terminated, and (2) for the cost of materials and equipment at the site, in transit, or on definite commitment, as of the date the Contract is terminated, provided that such materials and equipment would be needed in the work and meet the requirements of the specifications. The cost of the work performed and the cost of materials and equipment, as mentioned above, shall be determined by the City in accordance with the procedure prescribed for making of a final progress payment as described in Section 3. Section 45. Standard Specifications The "Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction" (Latest Edition), published by Building News, Inc. is hereby incorporated by this reference and made a part hereof as though fully set forth at length. In the event, however, that said Standard Specifications are inconsistent with the terms of this Contract, including the Special Provisions attached hereto, then this Contract and the Special Provisions shall be deemed controlling. - D-13 - IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties hereto have executed this Contract or caused it to be executed as of the day, month and year first above written.
