A. Care shall be taken in loading, transporting and unloading to prevent injury to the pipe, lining or
coatings. Pipe or fittings shall not be dropped. All pipe or fittings shall be examined before
laying and no piece shall be installed which is found to be defective. Any damage to the pipe
linings or coatings shall be repaired as directed by the Engineer. Handling and laying of pipe and
fittings shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction and as specified herein.
B. All pipe and fittings shall be thoroughly cleaned before laying, shall be kept clean until they are
used in the work, and when laid, shall conform to the lines and grades required. Ductile iron pipe
and fittings shall be installed in accordance with requirements of AWWA C600 except as
otherwise provided herein. A firm, even bearing throughout the length of the pipe shall be
constructed by tamping bedding and precover material. Blocking will not be permitted. If any
defective pipe is discovered after it has been laid, it shall be removed and replaced with a sound
pipe in a satisfactory manner by the Contractor, at his own expense.
C. All pipe shall be sound and clean before laying. When laying is not in progress, including
lunchtime, the open ends of the pipe shall be closed by watertight plugs or other approved means.
Good alignment shall be preserved in laying. The deflection at joints shall not exceed that
recommended by manufacturer. Fittings, in addition to those shown on the Drawings, shall be
provided, if required, for crossing utilities which may be encountered upon opening the trench.
Solid sleeves shall be used only where approved by the Engineer.
D. When cutting pipe is required, the cutting shall be done by machine, leaving a smooth cut at right
angles to the axis of the pipe. Cut ends of pipe to be jointed with a bell shall be beveled to
conform to the manufactured spigot end. Cement lining shall be undamaged.
E. The Contractor shall have on hand at the start of the job, one 1/16 bend and one 1/8 bend for
each size of pipe. These shall be used as job conditions require.
F. Concrete thrust blocks shall be installed at all fittings not provided with approved mechanical
restraints as provided herein, and other locations as directed by the Engineer. Minimum bearing
area shall be as approved by the Engineer. Joints shall be protected by felt roofing paper prior
to placing concrete. Concrete shall be placed against undisturbed material, and shall not cover
joints, bolts or nuts, or interfere with the removal of any joint. Wooden side forms or sand bags
shall be provided for thrust blocks.
3.02 PUSH -ON JOINTS
A. Push -on joints shall be made in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Pipe shall be
laid with bell ends looking ahead. A rubber gasket shall be inserted in the groove of the bell end
of the pipe, and the joint surfaces cleaned and lubricated. The plain end of the pipe to be laid
shall then be aligned and inserted in the bell of the pipe to which it is to be joined and pushed
home with a jack or by other means. After joining the pipe, a metal feeler shall be used to make
certain that the rubber gasket is correctly located.

3.10 CHLORINATION OF PIPELINES
A. Before being placed in service, all new potable water pipelines including plant water shall be
chlorinated using the continuous feed method specified in AWWA C651. The procedure shall
be approved by the Engineer in advance.
B. The location of the chlorination and sampling points will be determined by the Engineer in the
field. Taps for chlorination and sampling shall be installed by the Contractor. The Contractor
shall uncover and backfill the taps as required.
C. The general procedure for chlorination shall be first to flush all dirty or discolored water from the

being withdrawn at the other end of the line. The chlorine solution shall remain in the pipeline
for 24 hours.
D. Following the chlorination period, all treated water shall be flushed from the lines at their
extremities and replaced with water from the distribution system. All treated water flushed from
the lines shall be disposed of by discharging to the nearest sanitary sewer or by other approved
means. No discharge to any storm sewer or natural water course will be allowed. Bacteriological
sampling and analysis of the replacement water may then be made by the Engineer in full
accordance with AWWA C651. The Contractor will be required to rechlorinate, if necessary and
the line shall not be placed in service until the requirements of the Texas Natural Resources and
Conservation Commission are met.
E. Special disinfecting procedures shall be used in connections to existing mains and where the
method outlined above is not practical.

Contract Times commence to nun later than the sixtieth day after
the day of Bid opening or the thirtieth day after the Effective Date
of the Agreement, whichever date is earlier.
Starting the Work:
2.4. CONTRACTOR shall start to perform the Work on the
date when the Contract Times commence to run, but no Work
shall be done at the site prior to the date on which the Contract
Times commence to run.
Before Starting Construction:
2.5. Before undertaking each part of the Work, CON-
TRACTOR shall carefully study and compare the Contract
Documents and check and verify pertinent figures shown
thereon and all applicable field measurements. CONTRAC-
TOR shall promptly report in writing to ENGINEER any
conflict, error, ambiguity or discrepancy which CONTRAC-
TOR may discover and shall obtain a written interpretation or
clarification from ENGINEER before proceeding with any
Work affected thereby; however, CONTRACTOR shall not be
liable to OWNER or ENGINEER for failure to report any
conflict, error, ambiguity or discrepancy in the Contract Doc-
uments, unless CONTRACTOR knew or reasonably should
have known thereof.
2.6. Within ten days after the Effective Date of the Agree-
ment (unless otherwise specified in the General Requirements),
CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for review:

times (numbers of days or dates) for starting and completing
the various stages of the Work, including any Milestones
specified in the Contract Documents;
2.6.2. a preliminary schedule of Shop Drawing and Sam-
ple submittals which will list each required submittal and the
times for submitting, reviewing and processing such submit-
tal;
2.6.3. a preliminary schedule of values for all of the
Work which will include quantities and prices of items
aggregating the Contract Price and will subdivide the Work
into component parts in sufficient detail to serve as the basis
for progress payments during construction. Such prices will
include an appropriate amount of overhead and profit appli-
cable to each item of Work.

TOR shall have an additional ten 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 to and acceptable to ENGINEER as-
provided below. The progress schedule will be acceptable to
ENGINEER as providing an orderly progression of the Work
to completion within any specified Milestones and the Contract
Times, but such acceptance will neither impose on ENGI-
NEER responsibility for the sequencing, scheduling or progress
of the Work nor interfere with or relieve CONTRACTOR from
CONTRACTOR'S full responsibility therefor. CONTRACTOR'S
schedule of Shop Drawing and Sample submissions will be
acceptable to ENGINEER as providing a workable arrange-
, ment for reviewing and processing the required submittals.
CONTRACTOR's schedule of values will be acceptable to
ENGINEER as to form and substance.
ARTICLE 3— CONTRACT DOCUMENTS: INTENT,
AMENDING, REUSE
Intent:
3.1. The Contract Documents comprise the entire agree-
ment between OWNER and CONTRACTOR concerning the
Work. The Contract Documents are complementary; what is
called for by one is as binding as if called for by all. The
Contract Documents will be construed in accordance with the
law of the place of the Project.
3.2. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to describe
a functionally complete Project (or part thereof) to be con-
structed 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 furnished and performed 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 or phrases
shall be interpreted in accordance with that meaning. Clarifi-
16
cations and interpretations of the Contract Documents shall be
issued by ENGINEER as provided in paragraph 9.4.
3.3. Reference to Standards and Specifications of Technical
Societies; Reporting and Resolving Discrepancies:
3.3.1. Reference to standards, specifications, manuals or
codes of any technical society, organization or association,
or to the Laws or Regulations of any governmental authority,

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 paragraph 6.5,
CONTRACTOR shall report it to ENGINEER in writing at
once, and, CONTRACTOR shall not proceed the Work
affected thereby (except in an emergency as authorized by
paragraph 6.23) until an amendment or supplement to the
Contract Documents has been issued by one of the methods
indicated in paragraph 3.5 or 3.6; provided, however, that
CONTRACTOR shall not be liable to OWNER or ENGI-
NEER for failure to report any such conflict, error, ambigu-
ity or discrepancy unless CONTRACTOR knew or reason-
ably should have known thereof.
3.3.3. 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 indi-
cated in paragraph 3.5 or 3.6, the provisions of the Contract

3.3.3.1. the provisions of any such standard, speci-
fication, manual, code or instruction (whether or not
specifically incorporated by reference in the Contract
Documents); or
3.3.3.2. the provisions of any such Laws or Regu-
lations applicable to the performance of the Work
(unless such an interpretation of the provisions of the
Contract Documents would result in violation of such

ordered," "as directed, "as required," "as allowed," "as
approved" or terms of like effect or import are used, or the
adjectives "reasonable," "suitable," "acceptable," "proper"
or "satisfactory" or adjectives of like effect or import are
used to describe a requirement, direction, review or judg-
ment of ENGINEER as to the Work, it is intended that such
requirement, direction, review or judgment will be solely to
evaluate, in general, the completed Work for compliance
with the requirements of and information in the Contract
Documents and conformance with the design concept of the
completed Project as a functioning whole as shown or
indicated in the Contract Documents (unless there is a
specific statement indicating otherwise). The use of any such
term or adjective shall not be effective to assign to ENGI-
NEER any duty or authority to supervise or direct the
furnishing or performance of the Work or any duty or
authority to undertake responsibility contrary to the provi-
sions of paragraph 9.13 or any other provision of the
Contract Documents.

shall identify any encumbrances or restrictions not of general
application but specifically related to use of lands so furnished
with which CONTRACTOR will have to comply in performing
the Work. Easements for permanent structures or permanent
changes in existing facilities will be obtained and paid for by
OWNER, unless otherwise provided in the Contract Docu-
ments. 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,
CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefor as provided in
Articles 11 and 12. CONTRACTOR shall provide for all
additional lands and access thereto that may be required for
temporary construction facilities or storage of materials and
equipment.
4.2. Subsurface and Physical Conditions:
4.2.1. Reports and Drawings• Reference is made to the
Supplementary Conditions for identification of:

4.2.1.2. PliysicalConditions: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 by ENGINEER in prepar-
ing the Contract Documents.
4.2.2. Limited Reliance by CONTRACTOR Authorized;
Technical Data: CONTRACTOR may rely upon the general
accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such reports and
drawings, but such reports and drawings are not Contract
Documents. Such "technical data" is identified in the Supple-
mentary Conditions. Except for such reliance on such "tech-
nical data," CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or make any
claim against OWNER, ENGINEER or any of ENGINEER'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, se-
quences and procedures of construction to be employed by
CONTRACTOR and safety precautions and programs inci-
dent thereto, or
4.2.2.2. other data, interpretations, opinions and infor-
mation contained in such reports or shown or indicated in
such drawings, or
4.2.2.3. any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or conclu-
sion drawn from any "technical data" or any such data,
interpretations, opinions or information.
4.2.3. Notice of Differing Subsurface or Physical Condi-
tions: If CONTRACTOR believes that any subsurface or
physical condition at or contiguous to the site that is uncovered
or revealed either:
4.2.3.1. is of such a nature as to establish that any
"technical data" on which CONTRACTOR is entitled to
rely as provided in paragraphs 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 is materially
inaccurate, or
4.2.3.2. is of such a nature as to require a change in the
Contract Documents, or
4.2.3.3. differs materially from that shown or indicated in
the Contract Documents, or
4.2.3.4. is of an unusual nature, and differs materially
from conditions ordinarily encountered and generally recog-
nized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the
Contract Documents; then
CONTRACTOR shall, promptly after becoming aware thereof
and before further disturbing conditions affected thereby or
performing any Work in connection therewith (except in an
emergency as permitted by paragraph 6.23), notify OWNER
and ENGINEER in writing about such condition. CONTRAC-
TOR shall not further disturb such conditions or perform any
Work in connection therewith (except as aforesaid) until re-
ceipt of written order to do so.
4.2.4. ENGINEER's Review: ENGINEER will promptly
review the pertinent conditions, determine the necessity of
OWNER's obtaining additional exploration or tests with re-
spect thereto and advise OWNER in writing (with a copy to
CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER's findings and conclusions.
18
4.2.5. Possible Contract Documents Change: If ENGI-
NEER concludes that a change in the Contract Documents is
required as a result of a condition that meets one or more of the
categories in paragraph 4.2.3., a Work Change Directive or a
Change Order will be issued as provided in Article 10 to reflect
and document the consequences of such change.
4.2.6. Possible Price and Times Adjustments: An equitable
adjustment in the Contract Price or in the Contract Times, or
both, will be allowed to the extent that the existence of such
uncovered or revealed condition causes an increase or de-
crease in CONTRACTOR's cost of, or time required for
performance of, the Work; subject, however, to the following:
4.2.6.1. such condition must meet any one or more of the
categories described in paragraphs 4.2.3.1 through 4.2.3.4,
inclusive;
4.2.6.2. a change in the ContractDocuments pursuant to
paragraph 4.2.5 will not be an automatic authorization of nor
a condition precedent to entitlement to any such adjustment;
4.2.6.3. with respect to Work that is paid for on a Unit
Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract Price will be subject
to the provisions of paragraphs 9.10 and 11.9; and
4.2.6.4. CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to any
adjustment in the Contract Price or Times if;
4.2.6.4.1. CONTRACTOR knew of the existence of
such conditions at the time CONTRACTOR made a final
commitment to OWNER in respect of Contract Price and
Contract Times by the submission of a bid or becoming
bound under a negotiated contract; or
4.2.6.4.2. the existence of such condition could rea-
sonably have been discovered or revealed as a result of
any examination, Investigation, exploration, test or study
of the site and contiguous areas required by the Bidding
Requirements or Contract Documents to be conducted by
or for CONTRACTOR prior to CONTRACTOR's making
such final commitment; or
4.2.6.4.3. CONTRACTOR failed to give the written
notice within the time and as required by paragraph 4.2.3.
If OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree on
entitlement to or as to the amount or length of any such
equitable adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Times,
a claim may be made therefor as provided in Articles I I and 12.
However, OWNER, ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consult-
ants shall not be liable to CONTRACTOR for any claims,
costs, losses or damages sustained by CONTRACTOR on or in
connection with any other project or anticipated project.
4.3. Physical Conditions— Underground Facilities:
4.3.1. Shown or Indicated: The Information and data shown

sible for the accuracy or completeness of any such informa-
tion 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 respon-
sibility for (i) reviewing and checking all such information and
data, (ii) locating all Underground Facilities shown or indicated
in the Contract Documents, (iii) coordination of the Work with
the owners of such Underground Facilities during construction,
and (iv) the safety and protection of all such Underground
Facilities as provided in paragraph 6.20 and repairing any
damage thereto resulting from the Work.
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, CON-
TRACTOR shall, promptly after becoming aware thereof and
before further disturbing conditions affected thereby or per-
forming any Work in connection therewith (except in an
emergency as required by paragraph 6.23), identify the owner
of such Underground Facility and give written notice to that
owner and to OWNER and ENGINEER. ENGINEER will
promptly review the Underground Facility and determine the
extent, if any, to which a change is required in the Contract
Documents to reflect and document the consequences of the
existence of the Underground Facility. If ENGINEER con-
cludes that a change in the Contract Documents is required, a
Work Change Directive or a Change Order will be issued as
provided in Article 10 to reflect and document such conse-
quences. During such time, CONTRACTOR shall be respon-
sible for the safety and protection of such Underground Facility
as provided in paragraph 6.20. CONTRACTOR shall be al-
lowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Times, 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 arid that CON-
TRACTOR did not know of and could not reasonably have
been expected to be aware of or to have anticipated. If
OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree on entitle-
ment to or the amount or length of any such adjustment in
Contract Price or Contract Times, CONTRACTOR may make
a claim therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12. However,
OWNER, ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consultants shall
not be liable to CONTRACTOR for any claims, costs, losses or
damages incurred or sustained by CONTRACTOR on or in
connection with any other project or anticipated project.
Reference Points:
4.4. OWNER shall provide engineering surveys to estab-
lish reference points for construction which in ENGINEER's
judgment are necessary to enable CONTRACTOR to proceed
with the Work. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for laying
out the Work, shall protect and preserve the established
reference points and shall make no changes or relocations
19
without the prior written approval of OWNER. CONTRAC-
TOR shall report to ENGINEER whenever any reference
point is lost or destroyed or requires relocation because of
necessary changes in grades or locations. and shall be respon-
sible for the accurate replacement or relocation of such refer-
ence points by professionally qualified personnel.

OWNER shall promptly consult with ENGINEER concern-
ing 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 CON-
TRACTOR to be resumed, either party may make a claim
therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
4.5.3. 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
OWNER may order such portion of the Work that is in
connection with such hazardous condition or in such af-
fected 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 such
deleted portion of the Work performed by OWNER's own
forces or others in accordance with Article 7.
4.5.4. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Reg-
ulations, OWNER shall indemnify and hold harmless CON-
TRACTOR, Subcontractors, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's
Consultants and the officers, directors, employees, agents,

paragraph 5.11.
5.9. OWNER shall not be responsible for purchasing and

the site, OWNER shall in writing advise CONTRACTOR
whether or not such other insurance has been procured by
OWNER.
5.11. Waiver of Rights:
5.11.1. OWNER and CONTRACTOR intend that all
policies purchased in accordance with paragraphs 5.6 and
5.7 will protect OWNER, CONTRACTOR, Subcontractors,
ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultants and all other per-
sons or entities identified in the Supplementary Conditions to

and will provide primary coverage for all losses and damages
caused by the perils covered thereby. All such policies shall
contain provisions to the effect that in the event of payment
of any loss or damage the insurers will have no rights of
recovery against any of the insureds or additional insureds
thereunder. OWNER and CONTRACTOR waive all rights

employees and agents for all losses and damages caused by,
arising out of or resulting from any of the perils covered by
such policies and any other property insurance applicable to
the Work; and, in addition, waive all such rights against
Subcontractors, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultants
and all other persons or entities identified in the Supplemen-
tary Conditions to be listed as insureds or additional insureds

policy so issued.
5.11.2. In addition, OWNER waives all rights against
CONTRACTOR, Subcontractors, ENGINEER, ENGI-
NEER's Consultants and the officers, directors, employees
and agents of any of them, for:

payment of any such loss, damage or consequential loss the
insurers will have no rights of recovery against any of CON-
TRACTOR, Subcontractors, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Con-
sultants and the officers, directors, employees and agents of
any of them.
Receipt and Application of Insurance 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 fiduciary for the
insureds, as their interests may appear, subject to the require-
ments of any applicable mortgage clause and of paragraph 5.13.
OWNER shall deposit in a separate account any money so
received, and shall distribute it in accordance with such agree-
ment as the parties in interest may reach. If no other special
agreement is reached the damaged Work shall be repaired or
replaced, the moneys so received applied on account thereof
and the Work and the cost thereof covered by an appropriate
Change Order or Written Amendment.
5.13. OWNER as fiduciary 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 exercise of this power. If such
objection be made, OWNER as fiduciary shall make settlement
with the insurers in accordance with such agreement as the
parties in interest may reach. If no such agreement among the
parties in interest is reached, OWNER as fiduciary shall adjust
and settle the loss with the insurers and. if required in writing
by any party in interest, OWNER as fiduciary shall give bond
for the proper performance of such duties.
Acceptance of Bonds and Insurance; Option to Replace:
5.14. If either party (OWNER or CONTRACTOR) has any
objection to the coverage afforded by or other provisions of the
Bonds or insurance required to be purchased and maintained
by the other party in accordance with Article 5 on the basis of
non - conformance with the Contract Documents, the objecting
party shall so notify the other party in writing within ten days
after receipt of the certificates (or other evidence requested)
required by paragraph 2.7. OWNER and CONTRACTOR shall
each provide to the other such additional information in respect
of insurance provided as the other may reasonably request. If
either party does not purchase or maintain all of the Bonds and
insurance required of such party by the Contract Documents,
such party shall notify the other party in writing of such failure
to purchase prior to the start of the Work, or of such failure to
maintain prior to any change in the required coverage. Without
prejudice to any other right or remedy, the other party may
elect to obtain equivalent Bonds or insurance to protect such
other party's interests at the expense of the party who was

required to provide such coverage, and a Change Order shall
be issued to adjust the Contract Price accordingly.
Partial U6limtion 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

occupancy shall commence before the insurers providing the
property insurance have acknowledged notice thereof and in
writing effected any changes in coverage necessitated thereby.

endorsement on the policy or policies, but the property insur-
ance shall not be cancelled or permitted to lapse on account of
any such partial use or occupancy.
ARTICLE 6— CONTRALIUR'S RESPONSIBILITIES
Supervision and Superintendence:
6.1. CONTRACTOR shall supervise, inspect and direct the
Work competently and efficiently, devoting such attention
thereto and applying such skills and expertise as may be
rt. necessary to perform the Work in accordance with the Con-
tract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible
for the means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures
of construction, but CONTRA...UR shall not be responsible
for the negligence of others in the design or specification of a
specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of
construction which is shown or indicated in and expressly
required by the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall be
responsible to see that the completed Work complies accu-
rately with the Contract Documents.
6.2. CONTRACTOR shall keep on the Work at all times
during its progress a competent resident superintendent, who
shall not be replaced without written notice to OWNER and
ENGINEER except under extraordinary circumstances. The
superintendent will be CONTRACTOR's representative at the
site and shall have authority to act on behalf of CONTRAC-
TOR. All communications to the superintendent shall be as
binding as if given to CONTRACTOR.
Labor, Materials and Equipment:
6.3. CONTRACTOR shall provide competent, suitably qual-
ified personnel to survey, lay out and construct the Work as
required by the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall at
all times maintain good discipline and order at the site. Except
as otherwise required for 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
23
CONTRACTOR will not permit overtime work or the perfor-
mance of Work on Saturday, Sunday or any legal holiday
without OWNER's written consent given after prior written
notice to ENGINEER.
6.4. Unless otherwise specified in the General Require-
ments, CONTRACTOR shall furnish and assume full respon-
sibility for all materials, equipment, labor, transportation, con-
struction equipment and machinery, tools, appliances, fuel,
power, light, heat, telephone, water, sanitary facilities, tempo-
rary facilities and all other facilities and incidentals necessary
for the furnishing, performance. testing, start-up and comple-
tion of the Work.
6.5. All materials and equipment shall be of good quality
and new, except as otherwise provided in the Contract Docu-
ments. All warranties and guarantees specifically called for by
the Specifications shall expressly run to the benefit of OWNER.
If required by ENGINEER, CONTRACTOR shall furnish
satisfactory evidence (including reports of required tests) as to
the kind and quality of materials and equipment. All materials
and equipment shall be applied, installed, connected, erected,
used, cleaned and conditioned in accordance with instructions
of the applicable Supplier, except as otherwise provided in the
Contract Documents.
Progress Schedule:
6.6. CONTRACTOR shall adhere to the progress schedule
established in accordance with paragraph 2.9 as it may be
adjusted from time to time as provided below:
6.6.1. CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for
acceptance (to the extent indicated in paragraph 2.9) pro-
posed adjustments in the progress schedule that will not
change the Contract Times (or Milestones). Such adjust-
ments will conform generally to the progress schedule then
in effect and additionally will comply with any provisions of
the General Requirements applicable thereto.
6.6.2. Proposed adjustments in the progress schedule
that will change the Contract Times (or Milestones) shall be
submitted in accordance with the requirements of paragraph
12.1. Such adjustments may only be made by a Change
Order or Written Amendment in accordance with Article 12.
6.7. Substitutes and "Or- Equal" Items:
6.7.1. Whenever an item of material or equipment is
specified or described in the Contract Documents by using
the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular
Supplier, the specification or description is intended to
establish the type, function and quality required. Unless the
specification or description contains or is followed by words
reading that no like, equivalent or "or- equal" item or no
substitution is permitted, other items of material or equip-
ment or material or equipment of other Suppliers may be
accepted by ENGINEER under the following circumstances:
6.7.1.1. "Or-Equal": If in ENGINEER's sole discre-
tion an item of material or equipment proposed by CON-
TRACTOR is functionally equal to that named and suffi-
ciently similar so that no change in related Work will be
required, it may be considered by ENGINEER as an
"or- equal" item, in which case review and approval of the
proposed item may, in ENGINEER's sole discretion, be
accomplished without compliance with some or all of the
requirements for acceptance of proposed substitute items.
6.7.1.2. Substitute Items: If in ENGINEER's sole
discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by
CONTRACTOR does not qualify as an "or- equal" item
under subparagraph 6.7.1.1, it will be considered a pro-
posed substitute item. CONTRACTOR shall submit suffi-
cient information as provided below to allow ENGINEER
to determine that the item of material or equipment
proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and an
acceptable substitute therefor. The procedure for review
by the ENGINEER will include the following as supple-
mented in the General Requirements and as ENGINEER
may decide is appropriate under the circumstances. Re-
quests for review of proposed substitute items of material
or equipment will not be accepted by ENGINEER from
anyone other than CONTRACTOR. If CONTRACTOR
wishes to furnish or use a substitute item of material or
equipment, CONTRACTOR shall first make written appli-
cation to ENGINEER 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 in substance to that specified and be
suited to the same use as that specified. The application
will state the extent, if any, to which the evaluation and
acceptance of the proposed substitute will prejudice CON -
TRACTOR'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 indi-
cated. The application will also contain an itemized esti-
mate of all costs or credits 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 will be considered by
ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed substitute. EN-
GINEER may require CONTRACTOR to fumish addi-
tional data about the proposed substitute.
6.7.1.3. CONTRACTOR's Expense: All data to be
provided by CONTRACTOR in support of any proposed
"or- equal" or substitute item will be at CONTRACTOR's
expense.
6.7.2. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a
specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of
24
construction is shown or indicated in and expressly required by
the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may fumish or
utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence or
procedure of construction acceptable to ENGINEER. CON-
TRACTOR shall submit sufficient information to allow ENGI-
NEER, in ENGINEER's sole discretion, to determine that the
substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly called for by
the Contract Documents. The procedure for review by ENGI-
NEER will be similar to that provided in subparagraph 6.7.1.2.
6.7.3. Engineer's Evaluation: ENGINEER will be allowed
a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposal or
submittal made pursuant to paragraphs 6.7.1.2 and 6.7.2.
ENGINEER will be the sole judge of acceptability. No "or-
equal" or substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized
without ENGINEER'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 "or- equal" or substitute.
ENGINEER will record time required by ENGINEER and
ENGINEER's Consultants in evaluating substitutes proposed
or submitted by CONTRA(.IOR pursuant to paragraphs 6.7.1.2
and 6.7.2 and in making changes in the Contract Documents (or
in the provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for
work on the Project) occasioned thereby. Whether or not
ENGINEER accepts a substitute item so proposed or submit-
ted by CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall reimburse
OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER and ENGINEER's
Consultants for evaluating each such proposed substitute item.
Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers and Others:
6.8.1. CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcon-
tractor, Supplier or other person or organization (including
those acceptable to OWNER and ENGINEER as indicated
in paragraph 6.8.2), whether initially or as a substitute,
against whom OWNER or ENGINEER may have reason-
able 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 iden-
tity of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers or other persons or
organizations (including those who are to furnish the princi-
pal items of materials or equipment) to be submitted to
OWNER in advance of the specified date prior to the
Effective Date of the Agreement for acceptance by OWNER
and ENGINEER, and if CONTRACTOR has submitted a
list thereof in accordance with the Supplementary Condi-
tions, OWNER's or ENGINEER'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 Subcon-
tractor, 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 sub-
mit an acceptable substitute, the Contract Price will be
adjusted by the difference in the cost occasioned by such

substitution and an appropriate Change Order will be issued
or Written Amendment signed. No acceptance by OWNER
or ENGINEER of any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other
person or organization shall constitute a waiver of any right
of OWNER or ENGINEER to reject defective Work.
6.9.1. CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to
OWNER and ENGINEER for all acts and omissions of the
Subcontractors, Suppliers and other persons and organiza-
tions performing or furnishing any of the Work under a direct
or indirect contract with CONTRACTOR just as CON-
TRACTOR is responsible for CONTRACTOR's own acts
and omissions. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall
create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor, Supplier or
other person or organization any contractual relationship
between OWNER or ENGINEER and any such Subcon-
tractor, Supplier or other person or organization, nor shall it
create any obligation on the part of OWNER or ENGI-
NEER to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys due
any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organi-
zation except as may otherwise be required by Laws and
Regulations.
6.9.2. CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible for
scheduling and coordinating the Work of Subcontractors,
Suppliers and other persons and organizations performing or
furnishing any of the Work undera direct or indirect contract
with CONTRAC. IUR. CONTRACTOR shall require all Sub-
contractors, Suppliers and such other persons and organiza-
tions performing or furnishing any of the Work to communi-
cate with the ENGINEER through CONTRACTOR.
6.10. The divisions and sections of the Specifications and
the identifications of any Drawings shall not control CON-
TRACTOR 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 Sub-
contractor or Supplier will be pursuant to an appropriate
agreement between CONTRACTOR and the Subcontractor or
Supplier which specifically binds the Subcontractor or Supplier
to the applicable terms and conditions of the Contract Docu-
ments for the benefit of OWNER and ENGINEER. Whenever
any such agreement is with a Subcontractor or Supplier who is
listed as an additional insured on the property insurance
provided in paragraph 5.6 or 5.7, the agreement between the
CONTRACTOR and the Subcontractor or Supplier will con-
tain provisions whereby the Subcontractor or Supplier waives
all rights against OWNER, CONTRACTOR, ENGINEER,
ENGINEER's Consultants and all other additional insureds for
all losses and damages caused by, arising out of or resulting
from any of the perils covered by such policies and any other
property insurance applicable to the Work. If the insurers on
any such policies require separate waiver forms to be signed by
any Subcontractor or Supplier, CONTRACTOR will obtain the
same.
Parent Fees and Royalties:
6.12. CONTRACTOR shall pay all license fees and royal-
ties and assume all costs incident to the use in the performance
25
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. If a particular
invention, design, process, product or device is specified in the
Contract Documents for use in the performance of the Work
and if to the actual knowledge of OWNER or ENGINEER its
use is subject to patent rights or copyrights calling for the
payment of any license fee or royalty to others, the existence of
such rights shall be disclosed by OWNER in the Contract
Documents. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harm-
less OWNER, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultants and
the officers, directors, employees, agents and other consultants
of each and any of them from and against all claims, costs,
losses and damages arising out of or resulting from any
infringement of patent rights or copyrights incident to the use in
the performance of the Work or resulting from the incorpora-
tion in the Work of any invention, design, process, product or
device not specified in the Contract Documents.
Permits:
6.13. Unless otherwise provided in the Supplementary
Conditions, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and pay for all con-
struction permits and licenses. OWNER shall assist CON-
TRACTOR, when necessary, in obtaining such permits and
licenses. CONTRACTOR shall pay all governmental charges
and inspection fees necessary for the prosecution of the Work,
which are applicable at the time of opening of Bids, or, if there
are no Bids, on the Effective Date of the Agreement. CON-
TRACTOR shall pay all charges of utility owners for connec-
tions to the Work, and OWNER shall pay all charges of such
utility owners for capital costs related thereto such as plant
investment fees.
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 ENGINEER shall be responsible for monitoring CON -

percent;
11.6.2.2. for costs incurred under paragraph 11.4.3,
the CONTRACTOR's fee shall be five percent;
11.6.2.3. where one or more tiers of subcontracts are
on the basis of Cost of the Work plus a fee and no fixed fee
is agreed upon, the intent of paragraphs 11.4.1, 11.4.2,
11.4.3 and 11.6.2 is that the Subcontractor who actually
performs or furnishes the Work. at whatever tier, will be
paid a fee of fifteen percent of the costs incurred by such

in any one change, the adjustment in CONTRACTOR's
fee shall be computed on the basis of the net change in
accordance with paragraphs 11.6.2.1 through 11.6.2.5,
inclusive.

gether with supporting data.

TOR (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 han-
dling 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

issued as recommended by ENGINEER to reflect actual
amounts due CONTRAC IUR on account of Work covered by
allowances, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly
adjusted.

Work an amount equal to the sum of the established unit
price 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 classifica-
tions of Unit Price Work performed by CONTRACTOR will
be made by ENGINEER 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 sepa-
rately identified item.
11.9.3. OWNER or CONTRACTOR may make a claim
for an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with
Article I1 if:
11.9.3.1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work
performed by CONTRACTOR differs matenally and sig-
nificantly from the estimated quantity of such item indi-
cated in the Agreement; and
11.9.3.2. there is no corresponding adjustment with
respect to any other item of Work; and
11.9.3.3. if CONTRACTOR believes that CONTRAC-
TOR is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result
35

lieves that OWNER is entitled to a decrease in Contract
Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount
of any such increase or decrease.
ARTICLE 12— CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIMES
12.1. The Contract Times (or Milestones) may only be
changed by a Change Order or a Written Amendment. Any
claim for an adjustment of the Contract Times (or Milestones)
shall be based on written notice delivered by the party making
the claim to the other party and to ENGINEER 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 extent of the claim with supporting
data shall be delivered within sixty days after such occurrence
(unless ENGINEER allows an additional period of time to
ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim) and shall
be accompanied by the claimant's written statement that the
adjustment 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 Times (or Milestones) shall be determined by ENGI-
NEER in accordance with paragraph 9.11 if OWNER and
CONTRACTOR cannot otherwise agree. No claim for an
adjustment in the Contract Times (or Milestones) will be valid
if not submitted in accordance with the requirements of this
paragraph 12.1.
12.2. All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are
of the essence of the Agreement.
12.3. Where CONTRACTOR is prevented from complet-
ing any part of the Work within the Contract Times (or
Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of CONTRAC-
TOR, the Contract Times (or Milestones) will be extended in an
amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a claim is
made therefor as provided in paragraph 12.1. Delays beyond
the control of CONTRACTOR shall include, but not be limited
to, acts or neglect by OWNER, acts or neglect of utility owners
or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by
Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather condi-
tions or acts of God. Delays attributable to and within the
control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be
delays within the control of CONTRACTOR.
12.4. Where CONTRACTOR is prevented from complet-
ing any part of the Work within the Contract Times (or
Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both OWNER
and CONTRACTOR, an extension of the Contract Times (or
Milestones) in an amount equal to the time lost due to such
delay shall be CONTRACTOR's sole and exclusive remedy for
such delay. In no event shall OWNER be liable to CONTRAC-
TOR, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other person or
organization, or to any surety for or employee or agent of any
of them, for damages arising out of or resulting from (i) delays
caused by or within the control of CONTRACTOR, or (ii)
delays beyond the control of both parties including but not
limited to fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather condi-
tions, acts of God or acts or neglect by utility owners or

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, construe-
don 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, OWNER's other con-
tractors and ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consultants ac-
cess to the site to enable OWNER to exercise the rights and
remedies under this paragraph. All claims, costs, losses and
damages incurred or sustained by OWNER in exercising such
rights and remedies will be charged against CONTRACTOR
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 claims, costs, losses and damages
will include but not be limited to all costs of repair or replace-
ment 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 Times (or Milestones) because of any delay in the
performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by OWNER
of OWNER's rights and remedies hereunder.
ARTICLE I4— PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND
COMPLETION
Schedule of Values:
14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in
paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments and
will be incorporated into a form of Application for Payment
acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments on account of
Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units com-
pleted.
Application for Progress Payment:
14.2. At least twenty days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER 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 equip-
ment 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. 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. ENGINEER will, within ten 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 indi-
cating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to recom-
mend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR may make
the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. Ten
days after presentation of the Application for Payment to
OWNER with ENGINEER's recommendation, the amount
recommended will (subject to the provisions of the last sen-
tence of paragraph 14.7) become due and when due will be paid
by OWNER to CONTRACTOR.
14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment re-
quested in an Application for Payment will constitute a repre-
sentation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on ENGINEER'S
on -site observations of the executed Work as an experienced
and qualified design professional and on ENGINEER's review
of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and
schedules, that to the best of ENGINEER's knowledge, infor-
mation and belief:
38
14.5.1. the Work has progressed to the point indicated,
14.5.2. the quality of the Work is generally in accor-
dance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evalu-
ation 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 quali-
fications stated in the recommendation), and
14.5.3. the conditions precedent to CONTRACTOR's
being entitled to such payment appear to have been
fulfilled in so far as it is ENGINEER's responsibility to
observe the Work.
However, by recommending any such payment ENGINEER
will not thereby be deemed to have represented that: (i)
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 ENGINEER in the
Contract Documents or (ii) that there may not be other matters
or issues between the parties that might entitle CONTRAC-
TOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or entitle OWNER to
withhold payment to CONTRACTOR.
14.6. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment, in-
cluding final payment, shall not mean that ENGINEER is
responsible for CONTRACTOR's means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures of construction, or the safety precau-
tions and programs incident thereto, or for any failure of
CONTRACTOR to comply with Laws and Regulations appli-
cable to the furnishing or performance of Work, or for any
failure of CONTRACTOR to perform or furnish Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole or
any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's opinion, it would
be incorrect to make the representations to OWNER referred
to in paragraph 14.5. ENGINEER may also refuse to recom-
mend any such payment, or, because of subsequently discov-
ered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests,
nullify any such payment previously recommended, to such
extent as may be necessary in ENGINEER'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 Writ-
ten Amendment or Change Order,
14.7.3. OWNER has been required to correct defec-
tive Work or complete Work in accordance with paragraph
13.14, or
14.7.4. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the oc-
currence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs
15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount
recommended by ENGINEER because:
143.5. claims have been made against OWNER on
account of CONTRACTORs performance or furnishing of
the Work,
■

1,

1.
14.7.6. Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered a
specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure the
satisfaction and discharge of such Liens,
14.7.7. there are other items entitling OWNER to a
set -off against the amount recommended, or
14.7.8. OWNER has actual knowledge of the occur-
rence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs
14.7.1 through 14.7.3 or paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4
inclusive;
but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate written
notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) stating the reasons for
such action and promptly pay CONTRACTOR the amount so
withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to by OWNER and
CONTRACTOR, when CONTRACTOR corrects to OWN -
ER's satisfaction 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 CONTRAC-
TOR as incomplete) and request that ENGINEER issue a
certificate of Substantial Completion Within a reasonable time
thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall
make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of
completion. If ENGINEER does not consider the Work sub-
stantially complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR
in writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers
the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will prepare and
deliver to OWNER a tentative certificate of Substantial Com-
pletion 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 ENGINEER as to
any provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after
considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that the
Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER will within
fourteen days after submission of the tentative certificate to
OWRER notify CONTRACTOR in writing, stating the reasons
therefor. If, after consideration of OWNER's objections, EN-
GINEER considers the Work substantially complete, ENGI-
NEER will within said fourteen days execute and deliver to
OWNER and CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Sub-
stantial Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be
completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the
tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the time of
delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial Completion
ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a
written recommendation as to division of responsibilities pend-
ing final payment between OWNER and CONTRACTOR with
respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, heat, utili-
ties, insurance and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER
and CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform
39
ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing the
definitive certificate of Substantial Completion, ENGINEER's
aforesaid recommendation will be binding on OWNER and
CONTRACTOR until final payment.
14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude CONTRAC-
TOR 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 sub-
stantially completed part of the Work which: (i) has specifically
been identified in the Contract Documents, or (ii) OWNER,
ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR agree constitutes a sepa-
rately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used
by OWNER for its intended purpose without significant inter-
ference with CONTRACTOR's performance of the remainder
of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial Com-
pletion of all the Work subject to the following:
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 that such part of the Work is substan-
tially complete, CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER
and ENGINEER that such part of the Work is substan-
tially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a certif-
icate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work.
CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing that CONTRACTOR considers
any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and
substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a
certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the
Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request,
OWNER, CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make
an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its
status of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider
that part of the Work to be substantially complete, ENGI-
NEER will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writ-
ing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER 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. 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.
Find 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 defective. CONTRACTOR shall immediately
take such measures as are necessary to complete such Work or
remedy such deficiencies.
Final Application for Payment:
14.12. After CONTRACTOR has completed all such cor-
rections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and delivered in
accordance with the Contract Documents all maintenance and
operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certifi-
cates or other evidence of insurance required by paragraph 5.4,
certificates of inspection, marked -up record documents (as
provided in paragraph 6.19) and other documents, CONTRAC-
TOR 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
by subparagraph 5.4.13, (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, CONTRAC-
TOR may furnish receipts or releases 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 satis-
factory to OWNER to indemnify OWNER against any Lien.
Final Payment and Acceptance:
14.13. If, on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of the
Work during construction and final inspection, and ENGI-
NEER's review of the final Application for Payment and
accompanying documentation as required by the Contract
Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that the Work has been
completed and CONTRACTOR's other obligations under the
Contract Documents have been fulfilled, ENGINEER will,
within ten days after receipt of the final Application for
Payment, indicate in writing ENGINEER's recommendation
of payment and present the Application to OWNER for pay-
ment. At the same time ENGINEER will also give written
notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the Work is
acceptable subject to the provisions of paragraph 14.15. Oth-
erwise, 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 Application.
Thirty days after the presentation to OWNER of the Applica-
tion and accompanying documentation, in appropriate form
and substance and with ENGINEER's recommendation and
notice of acceptability. the amount recommended by ENGI-
NEER will become due and will be paid by OWNER to
40
CONTRACTOR.
14.14. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final com-
pletion of the Work is significantly delayed and if ENGINEER
so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of CONTRACTOR's
final Application for Payment and recommendation of ENGI-
NEER, and without terminating the Agreement, make pay-
ment 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 Agreement, and if Bonds have
been furnished as required in paragraph 5.1, the written con-
sent 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 ENGINEER with the Appli-
cation 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.
Waiver of Claims:
14.15. The making and acceptance of final payment will
constitute:
14.15.1. a waiver of all claims by OWNER against
CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from unsettled Liens,
from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursu-
ant to paragraph 14.11, from failure to comply with the
Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees
specified therein, or from CONTRACTOR's continuing ob-
ligations under the Contract Documents; and
14.15.2. a waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR against
OWNER other than those previously made in writing and
still unsettled.
ARTICLE I5— SUSPENSION OF WORK AND
TERMINATION
OWNER May Suspend Work:
15.1. At any time and without cause, OWNER may sus-
pend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more
than ninety days by notice in writing to CONTRACTOR and
ENGINEER 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 Times, or both,
directly attnbutable to any such suspension if CONTRACTOR
makes an approved claim therefor as provided in Articles I 1
and 12.
OWNER May Terminate:
15.2. Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the
following events:
15.2.1. if CONTRACTOR persistently fails to perform
the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents (in-
cluding, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled
workers or suitable materials or equipment or failure to
adhere to the progress schedule established under paragraph
2.9 as adjusted from time to time pursuant to paragraph 6.6);
15.2.2. if CONTRACTOR disregards Laws or Regula-
tions of any public body having jurisdiction;
15.2.3. if CONTRACTOR disregards the authority of
ENGINEER; or
15.2.4. if CONTRACTOR otherwise violates in any sub-
stantial way any provisions of the Contract Documents;
OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR (and the surety,
if any,) seven days' written notice and to the extent permit-
ted 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 materi-
als 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 all claims, costs,
losses and damages sustained by OWNER arising out of or
resulting from completing the Work such excess will be paid
to CONTRACTOR. If such claims, costs, losses and dam-
ages exceed such unpaid balance, CONTRACTOR shall pay
the difference to OWNER. Such claims, costs, losses and
damages incurred by OWNER will be reviewed by ENGI-
NEER as to their reasonableness and when so approved by
ENGINEER incorporated in a Change Order, provided that
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. Where CONTRACTOR's services have been so ter-
minated 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.
15.4. Upon seven days' written notice to CONTRACTOR
and ENGINEER, OWNER may, without cause and without
prejudice to any other right or remedy of OWNER, elect to
terminate the Agreement. 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 effec-
tive date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums
for overhead and profit on such Work;
41
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 Docu-
ments 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.
CONTRACTOR May Stop Work or Terminate:
15.5. If, through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the
Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety days by
OWNER or under an order of court or other public author-
ity,' or ENGINEER fails to act on any Application for
Payment within thirty days after it is submitted or OWNER
fails for thirty days to pay CONTRACTOR any sum finally
determined to be due, then CONTRACTOR may, upon
seven days' written notice to OWNER and ENGINEER,
and provided OWNER or ENGINEER do not remedy such
suspension or failure within that time, terminate the Agree-
ment and recover from OWNER payment on the same terms
as provided in paragraph 15.4. In lieu of terminating the
Agreement and without prejudice to any other right or
remedy, if ENGINEER has failed to act on an Application
for Payment within thirty days after it is submitted, or
OWNER has failed for thirty days to pay CONTRACTOR
any sum finally determined to be due, CONTRACTOR may
upon seven day's written notice to OWNER and ENGI-
NEER stop the Work until payment of all such amounts due
CONTRACTOR, including interest thereon. The provisions
of this paragraph 15.5 are not intended to preclude CON-
TRACTOR from making claim under Articles 11 and 12 for
an increase in Contract Price or Contract Times or otherwise
for expenses or damage directly attributable to CONTRAC-
TOR's stopping Work as permitted by this paragraph.
ARTICLE 16— DISPUTE RESOLUTION
If and to the extent that OWNER and CONTRAC IOR have
agreed on the method and procedure for resolving disputes
between them that may arise under this Agreement, such
dispute resolution method and procedure, if any, shall be as set
forth in Exhibit GC -A, "Dispute Resolution Agreement," to be
attached hereto and made a part hereof. If no such agreement
on the method and procedure for resolving such disputes has
been reached, and subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.10,
9.11, and 9.12, OWNER and CONTRACTOR may exercise
such rights or remedies as either may otherwise have under the
Contract Documents or by Laws or Regulations in respect of
any dispute.

EXHIBIT GC -A to General Conditions of the
Agreement Between OWNER and CON-
TRACTOR Dated
For use with EJCDC No. 1910 -8 (1990 ed.)
DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENT
OWNER and CONTRACTOR hereby agree that Article 16
of the General Conditions to the Agreement between OWNER
and CONTRACTOR is amended to include the following
agreement of the parties:
16.1. All claims, disputes and other matters in question
between OWNER and CONTRACTOR arising out of or relat-
ing to the Contract Documents or the breach thereof (except
for claims which have been waived by the making or accep-
tance of final payment as provided by paragraph 14.15) will be
decided by arbitration in accordance with the Construction
Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Asso-
ciation then obtaining, subject to the limitations of this Article
16. This agreement so to arbitrate and any other agreement or
consent to arbitrate entered into in accordance herewith as
provided in this Article 16 will be specifically enforceable under
the prevailing law of any court having jurisdiction.
16.2. No demand for arbitration of any "claim, dispute or
other matter that is required to be referred to ENGINEER
initially for decision in accordance with paragraph 9.11 will be
made until the earlier of (a) the date on which ENGINEER has
rendered a written decision or (b) the thirty -first day after the
parties have presented their evidence to ENGINEER if a
written decision has not been rendered by ENGINEER before
that date. No demand for arbitration of any such claim, dispute
or other matter will be made later than thirty days after the date
on which ENGINEER has rendered a written decision in
respect thereof in accordance with paragraph 9.11; and the
failure to demand arbitration within said thirty days' period will
result in ENGINEER's decision being final and binding upon
OWNER and CONTRACTOR. If ENGINEER renders a de-
cision after arbitration proceedings have been initiated, such
decision may be entered as evidence but will not supersede the
arbitration proceedings, except where the decision is accept-
able to the parties concerned. No demand for arbitration of any
written decision of ENGINEER rendered in accordance with
paragraph 9.10 will be made later than ten days after the party
making such demand has delivered written notice of intention
to appeal as provided in paragraph 9.10.
16.3. Notice of the demand for arbitration will be filed in
writing with the other party to the Agreement and with the
[The remainder of this page was left blank intentionally.]
GC -A 1
American Arbitration Association, and a copy will be sent to
ENGINEER for information. The demand for arbitration will
be made within the thirty -day or ten- day period specified in
paragraph 16.2 as applicable, and in all other cases within a
reasonable time after the claim, dispute or other matter in
question has arisen, and in no event shall any such demand be
made after the date when institution of legal or equitable
proceedings based on such claim, dispute or other matter in
question would be barred by the applicable statute of limita-
tions.
16.4. Except as provided in paragraph 16.5 below, no
arbitration arising out of or relating to the Contract Documents
shall include by consolidation, joinder or in any other manner
any other person or entity (including ENGINEER, ENGI-
NEER's Consultant and the officers, directors, agents, em-
ployees or consultants of any of them) who is not a party to this
contract unless:
16.4.1. the inclusion of such other person or entity is
necessary if complete relief is to be afforded among those
who are already parties to the arbitration, and
16.4.2. such other person or entity is substantially in-
volved in a question of law or fact which is common to those
who are already parties to the arbitration and which will arise
in such proceedings, and
16.4.3. the written consent of the other person or entity
sought to be included and of OWNER and CONTRACTOR
has been obtained for such inclusion, which consent shall
make specific reference to this paragraph; but no such
consent shall constitute consent to arbitration of any dispute
not specifically described in such consent or to arbitration
with any party not specifically identified in such consent.
16.5. Notwithstanding paragraph 16.4 if a claim, dispute or
other matter in question between OWNER and CONTRAC-
TOR involves the Work of a Subcontractor, either OWNER or
CONTRACTOR may join such Subcontractor as a party to the
arbitration between OWNER and CONTRACTOR hereunder..
CONTRACTOR shall include in all subcontracts required by
paragraph 6.11 a specific provision whereby the Subcontractor
consents to being joined in an arbitration between OWNER
and CONTRACTOR involving the Work of such Subcontrac-
tor. Nothing in this paragraph 16.5 nor in the provision of such
subcontract consenting to joinder shall create any claim, right
or cause of action in favor of Subcontractor and against
OWNER, ENGINEER or ENGINEER's Consultants that
does not otherwise exist.
16.6. The award rendered by the arbitrators will be final,
judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdic-
tion thereof, and it will not be subject to modification or appeal.
16.7. OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree that they shall
first submit any and all unsettled claims, counterclaims, dis-
putes and other matters in question between them arising out of
or relating to the Contract Documents or the breach thereof
( "disputes "), to mediation by The American Arbitration As-
sociation under the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of
the American Arbitration Association prior to either of them
initiating against the other a demand for arbitration pursuant to
paragraphs 16.1 through 16.6, unless delay in initiating arbitra-

tion would irrevocably prejudice one of the parties. The
respective thirty and ten day time limits within which to file a
demand for arbitration as provided in paragraphs 16.2 and 16.3 _
above shall be suspended with respect to a dispute submitted to
mediation within those same applicable time limits and shall
remain suspended until ten days after the termination of the
mediation. The mediator of any dispute submitted to mediation
under this Agreement shall not serve as arbitrator of such
dispute unless otherwise agreed.

PART 3: EXECUTION
3.01 INSTALLATION
A. The installation of plastic pipe shall be strictly in accordance with the manufacturers technical
data and printed instmctions.
B. Joints for PVC and CPVC pipe shall be solvent cemented unless flanged or threaded are
otherwise shown on the Drawings or are specified as other types herein. In making solvent
cemented connections, clean dirt and moisture from pipe and fittings, bevel pipe ends slightly

joints shall be made in accordance with ASTM D2855 except that solvent cement formulated
especially for and as specified above shall be used for joining CPVC pipe and fittings. Primer
shall be used whenever recommended by the pipe, fitting, or cement manufacturer and in all cases
for joints on pipe systems four inches in diameter or larger. Making solvent cement joints shall
not be performed and the work shall stop when the temperature, measured in the shade, is 40 °F
and falling.
C. Joints between PVC drain, waste and vent pipe and cast -iron soil pipe shall be made with

Concrete inserts for hangers and supports shall be furnished and installed in the concrete as it is
placed. The inserts shall be set in accordance with the requirements of the piping layout and the
Contractor shall verify these locations from approved piping layout drawings and the structural
drawings. Pipe hangers and supports are specified in Section 15140.
J. Due to its large coefficient of thermal expansion, HDPE pipe shall be installed at its maximum
operating temperature to prevent sagging between the hangers or supports. Supports at each end
of the straight HDPE pipe runs shall be of sufficient strength to develop anchoring forces
adequate to oppose the tensile forces developed in the pipe due to thermal contraction. The
exception to this requirement shall be for flanged HDPE connections, because, if the flanged
connection is made up at the maximum operating temperature, the thermal contraction of the
flange thickness will reduce the required tensile force in the flange bolts. Flanged HDPE
connections shall, therefore be made up at the lowest expected operating temperature and then
the entire piping system shall be brought up to the maximum operating temperature for final
installation. (Note: Packing the flanges in ice may be necessary to achieve the proper installation
temperature).
3.02 FIELD TESTING
A. All pipelines shall remain undisturbed for the minimum curing or cooling time specified for each
type of pipe material but no less than 8 hours to develop full curing and complete strength at all
joints. All pipe systems shall be flushed clean and then subjected to a hydrostatic pressure test
for 12 hours at a test pressure and temperature specified below. Testing procedures shall be as
specified below and in Sections 15051 and 15052. Should the temperature not be attainable under
hydrostatic conditions, then the test may be perforated under hydrodynamic conditions, provided
that accurate measurements for loss of the test fluid can be made, or the pressure shall be
proportionally increased to simulate the stresses of the higher temperature in relation to the lowest
system temperature that is expected during the duration of the test. The proportionally higher test
pressures shall be determined in accordance with the accepted temperature versus strength
properties as published by the pipe manufacturer, Plastic Pipe Institute or other pipe material
standards organization. Allowance for expansion of polyethylene pipe during the test shall be
made in accordance with PPI Technical Report TR31.
B. The test pressures and temperatures for the various pipe lines shall be as follows:
1. Chemical feed piping: 150 psi at 100 °F
2. Drain piping: 15 psi at ambient temperature
3. Vent piping: 15 psi at ambient temperature
4. Potable water and plant protected water: 150 psi at 100 °F
C. The test shall be perforated by slowly filling the piping system, expelling entrapped air from all
high points. The fill rate shall be controlled so that the fluid velocity within the pipe system is
less than two fps. Upon completion of the filling process, the system shall be brought up to the
specified test temperature as applicable, holding the system pressure to less than ten percent of
the test pressure. Once the system has been stabilized at the specified test temperature, the pipe

8077 - 112 -DN
City of Round Rock
Water Treatment Plant
Chlorinatim and Filter Improvements
should be slowly brought up to the test pressure in such a manner so as to not create shock, surge
or water hammer in the pipe system. The test duration time limit shall not begin until the full
pressure specified above has been reached and the system has been stabilized to within five
percent of the test temperature. The system pressure and temperature shall be maintained to
within one -half percent but no more than five percent of the specified value for the temperature
and within five psi of the specified value for the pressure. These tolerances shall be held for the
entire duration of the test. Upon completion of the test, the pressure shall be slowly removed by
opening a valve or other pressure relieving device at a location remote to the location of the
pressure/temperature monitoring equipment.
D. The pressure test shall be monitored by a recording type pressure gage for tests not requiring
temperature control or a dual pen pressure/temperature recording gage when temperature control
is required. The entire test process shall be recorded, including the initial temperature
stabilization and pressurization of the piping system. The record shall be continuous through the
system test and shall show the fmal de- pressurization of the pipe system.
E. All visible leaks detected during the pressure test shall be repaired and the pressure/temperature
test rerun. A successful test shall be a test in which no visible leaks are detected and the pipe
system pressure can be maintained within one -half percent but no more than five psi of the
specified value.
F. Prior to testing, the pipelines shall be supported in an approved manner to prevent movement
during the tests.
3.03 PAINTING
A. All CPVC and PVC pipe and fittings exposed shall be field painted to provide additional UV
protection. This painting shall be required whether or not marking is required and shall be in
accordance with Section 09902.
