Surplus and waste materials removed from the site of the work shall be disposed of at locations satisfactory to the Engineer. In the event Contractor fails or refuses to clean and remove surplus materials and debris as above provided, the Owner or Engineer may do so, or cause same to be done, at the Contractor's expense and the reasonable cost thereof shall be deducted from the final payment. The contractor warrants the materials and workmanship and that the work is in conformance with the plans and specifications included in this contract for a period of one year from the date of acceptance of the project. Said warranty binds the contractor to correct any work that does not conform with such plans and specifications or any defects in workmanship or materials furnished under this contract which may be GC -21 gencond mstlspec discovered within the said one year period The Contractor shall at his own expense correct such defect within thirty days after receiving written notice of such defect from the Owner or Engineer by repairing same to the condition called for in the contract documents and plans and specifications. Should the Contractor fail or refuse to repair such defect within the said thirty day period or to provide acceptable assurances that such repair work will be completed within a reasonable time thereafter, the Owner may repair or cause to be repaired any such defect at the Contractor's expense. 3.21 Testing of Materials Unless otherwise specified, testing of all materials to be incorporated into the project will be as directed by the Engineer at the expense of the Owner. All retesting for work rejected on the basis of test results will be at the expense of the Contractor and the extent of the retesting shall be determined by the Engineer. The Engineer may require additional testing for failing tests and may require two passing retests before acceptance will be made by the Owner. The testing laboratory will be designated by the Owner. All materials to be incorporated into the project must meet the requirements of these specifications. For manufactured materials such as reinforcing steel, expansion joint materials, concrete pipe, cement, miscellaneous steel, cast iron materials, etc., the Contractor will be required to furnish a manufacturer's certificate stating that the material meets the requirements specified for this project. 3.22 Wage Rates Contractors are required to pay the prevailing wage rates to laborers, workmen and mechanics employed on behalf of the city engaged in the construction of public works. The wage rate for these jobs shall be the general prevailing wage rates for work of a similar character. This applies to contractors and subcontractors. The contractor and subcontractors shall keep and make available records of workers and their wages. Prevailing wage rates are published by the U. S Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Southwestern Division and the Texas Employment Commission for the Austin Job Bank Area. The wage rate shall not be less than the minimum wage rates set by the U. S. Department of Labor, Employment Standards Administration, Wage and Hour Division. There is penalty of $10.00 per worker per day or portion of a day that the prevailing wage rate is not paid by the contractor or any subcontractor. GC -22 4. Prosecution and Progress 4.01 Time and Order of Completion gcncond m ./spec It is the meaning and intent of this contract, unless otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall be allowed to prosecute his work at such times and seasons, in such order of precedence, and in such manner as shall be most conducive to economy of construction; provided, however, that the order and the time of prosecution shall be such that the work shall be substantially completed as a whole and in part, in accordance with this contract, the plans and specifications, and within the time of completion designated in the Proposal: provided, also, that when the Owner is having other work done, either by contract or by his own force, the Engineer may direct the time and manner of constructing the work done under this contract, so that conflict will be avoided and the construction of the various works being done for the Owner shall be harmonized. The Contractor shall submit, at such times as may reasonably be requested by the Engineer, schedules which shall show the order in which the Contractor proposes to carry on the Work, with dates at which the Contractor will start the several parts of the work, and estimated dates of completion of the several parts. 4.02 Extension of Time Should the Contractor be delayed in the completion of the work by any act or neglect of the Owner or Engineer, or of any employee of either, or by other contractors employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the work, or by strikes, lockouts, fires, and unusual delays by common carriers, or unavoidable cause or causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by any cause which the Engineer shall decide justifies the delay, then an extension of time shall be allowed for completing the work, sufficient to compensate for the delay, the amount of the extension to be determined by the Engineer, provided, however, that the Contractor shall give the Engineer prompt notice in writing of the cause of such delay. Adverse weather conditions will not be justification for extension of time on "Calendar Days" contracts. 4.03 Hindrances and Delays No claims shall be made by the Contractor for damages resulting from hindrances or delays from any cause (except where the work is stopped by order of and for the convenience of the Owner) during the progress of any portion of the work embraced in this contract. In case said work shall be stopped by the act of the Owner, then such expense as in the judgment of the Engineer is caused by such stoppage of said work shall be paid by the Owner to the Contractor. GC -23 5. Measurement and Payment 5.01 Quantifies and Measurements gencond mst/spec No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured and/or computed length, area, solid contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided 5.02 Estimated Quantities This agreement, including the specifications, plans and estimate, is intended to show clearly all work to be done and material to be furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown for the various classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract, they are approximate and are to be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing the proposals offered for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract may differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of such work done and material furnished. Where payment is based on the unit price method, the Contractor agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits or otherwise on account of any differences which may be found between the quantities of work actually done, the material actually furnished under this contract and the estimated quantities contemplated and contained in the proposal; provided, however, that in case the actual quantity of any major item should become as much as 20% more than, or 20% less than the estimated or contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Agreement, upon demand, shall be entitled to revised consideration upon the portion of the work above or below 20% of the estimated quantity. A "Major Item" shall be construed to be any individual bid item incurred in the proposal that has a total cost equal to or greater that five (5) percent of the total contract cost, computed on the basis of the proposal quantities and the contract unit prices. Any revised consideration is to be determined by agreement between the parties, otherwise by the terms of this Agreement, as provided under "Extra Work ". 5.03 Price of Work In consideration of the furnishing of all the necessary labor, equipment and material, and the completion of all work by the Contractor, and on the completion of all work and on the delivery of all material embraced in this Contract in full conformity with the specifications and stipulations herein contained, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the prices set forth in the Proposal hereto attached, which has been made a part of this GC -24 contract. The Contractor hereby agrees to receive such prices in full for furnishing all material and all labor required for the aforesaid work, also for all expense incurred by him, and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this Agreement. 5.04 Partial Payments gencond.ms ✓ spec On or before the 1st day of each month, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer a statement showing the total value of the work performed up to and including the 25th day of the preceding month. The statement shall also include the value of all sound materials delivered on the job site and to be included in the work and all partially completed work whether bid as a lump sum or a unit item which in the opinion of the Engineer is acceptable. The Engineer shall examine and approve or modify and approve such statement. The Owner shall then pay the Contractor on or before the 20th day of the current month the total amount of the approved statement, less 10 percent of the amount thereof, which 10 percent shall be retained until final payment, and further less all previous payments and all further sums that may by retained by the Owner under the terms of this Agreement It is understood, however, that in case the whole work be near to completion and some unexpected and unusual delay occurs due to no fault or neglect on the part of the Contractor, and Owner may - upon written recommendation of the Engineer - pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained percentage to the Contractor; or the Contractor at the Owner's option, may be relieved of the obligation to fully complete the work and, thereupon, the Contractor shall receive payment of the balance due him under the contract subject only to the conditions stated under "Final Payment ". 5.05 Use of Completed Portions The Owner shall have the right to take possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions of the work, notwithstanding the time for completing the entire work or such portions may not have expired but such taking possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any work not completed in accordance with the Contract Documents. If such prior use increases the cost of or delays the work, the Contractor shall be entitled to such extra compensation, or extension of time, or both, as the Engineer may determine. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer when, in the Contractor's opinion, the contract is "substantially completed" and when so notifying the Engineer, the Contractor shall furnish to the Engineer in writing a detailed list of unfinished work. The Engineer will review the Contractor's list of unfinished work and will add thereto such items as the Contractor has failed to include. The "substantial completion" of the structure or facility shall not excuse the Contractor from performing all of the work undertaken, whether of a minor or major nature, and thereby completing the structure or facility in accordance GC -25 with the Contract Documents. 5.06 Final Completion and Acceptance 5.07 Final Payment gencond msUspec Within ten (10) days after the Contractor has given the Engineer written notice that the work has been completed, or substantially completed, the Engineer and the Owner shall inspect the work and within said time, if the work be found to be completed in accordance with the Contact Documents, the Engineer shall issue to the Owner and the Contractor his Certificate of Completion, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Owner to issue a Certificate of Acceptance of the work to the Contractor or to advise the Contractor in writing of the reason for non - acceptance. Upon the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the Engineer shall proceed to make final measurements and prepare final statement for the value of all work performed and materials furnished under the terms of the Agreement and shall certify same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contractor on or before the 30th day, and before the 35th day, after the date of the Certificate of Completion, the balance due the Contractor under the terms of this contract; and said payment shall become due in any event upon said performance by the Contractor. Neither the Certificate of Acceptance nor the final payment, nor any provision in the Contract Documents, shall relieve the Contractor of the obligation for fulfillment of any warranty which may be required. 5.08 Payments Withheld The Owner may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of: a) Defective work not remedied or other obligations hereunder not done. b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims. c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to subcontractors or for material or labor. d) Damage to the Owner or another contractor's work, material or equipment. e) Reasonable doubt that the work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the contract amount. f) Reasonable indication that the work will not completed within the contract time. GC -26 g) Other causes affecting the performance of the contract. When the above grounds are removed or the Contractor provides a Surety Bond satisfactory to the Owner, which will protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them. 5.09 Delayed Payments gertcond msUspec Should the Owner fail to make payment to the Contractor of the sum named in any partial or final statement, when payment is due, then the Owner shall pay to the Contractor, in addition to the sum shown as due by such statement, interest thereon at the rate of 6% per annum, unless otherwise specified, from date due as provided under 'partial payments' and final 'payments,' until fully paid, which shall fully liquidate any injury to the Contractor growing out of such delay in payment. It is expressly agreed that delay by the Owner in making payment to the Contractor of the sum named in any partial or final statement shall not constitute a breach of this contract on the part of the Owner nor an abandonment thereof nor shall it to any extent or for any time relieve the Contractor of his obligations to fully and completely perform hereunder. 6. Extra Work and Claims 6.01 Change Orders Without invalidating this Agreement, the Owner may, at any time or from time to time, order additions, deletions or revisions to the work; such changes will be authorized by Change Order to be prepared by the Engineer for execution by the Owner and the Contractor. The Change Order shall set forth the basis for any change in contract price, as hereinafter set forth for Extra Work, and any change in contract time which may result from the change. In the event the Contractor shall refuse to execute a Change Order which has been prepared by the Engineer and executed by the Owner, The Engineer may in writing instruct the Contractor to proceed with the work as set forth in the Change Order and the Contractor may make claim against the Owner for Extra Work involved therein, as hereinafter provided. 6.02 Minor Changes The Engineer may authorize minor changes in the work not inconsistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents and not involving an increase in Contract Price. If the Contractor believes that any minor change or alteration authorized by the Engineer involves Extra Work and entitles him to an increase in the Contract Price, the Contractor GC -27 Any request by the Contractor for a change in Contract Price shall be made prior to beginning the work covered by the proposed change. gencond ms ✓spec shall make written request to the Engineer for a written Field Order. In such case, the Contractor by copy of his communication to the Engineer or otherwise in writing shall advise the Owner of his request to the Engineer for a written Field Order and that work involved may result in an increase in the Contract Price. 6.03 Extra Work It is agreed that the basis of compensation to the Contractor for work either added or deleted by a Change Order or for which a claim for Extra Work is made shall be determined by the unit prices upon which this contract was bid to the extent such work can be fairly classified within the various work item descriptions and for work items that cannot be so classified by one or more of the following methods: Method (A) By agreed unit prices; or Method (B) By agreed lump sum; or Method (C) If neither Method (A) nor Method (B) be agreed upon before the Extra Work is commenced, then the Contractor shall be paid the "actual field cost" of the work, plus fifteen (15) percent. In the event said Extra Work be performed and paid for under Method (C), then the provisions of this paragraph shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost to the Contractor of all workmen, such as foreman, timekeepers, mechanics and laborers, and materials, supplies, trucks, rentals on machinery and equipment, for the time actually employed or used on such Extra Work, plus actual equipment, for the time actually employed or used on such Extra Work, plus actual transportation charges necessarily incurred, together with all power, fuel, lubricants, water and similar operating expenses, also all necessary incidental expenses incurred directly on account of such Extra Work, including Social Security, Old Age Benefits and other payroll taxes, and, a rateable proportion of premiums on Performance and Payment Bonds and Maintenance Bonds, Public Liability and Property Damage and Workmen's Compensation, and all other insurance as may be required by any law or ordinance, or directed by the Owner, or by them agreed to. The Engineer may direct the form in which GC -28 accounts of the "actual field cost" shall be kept and the records of these accounts shall be made available to the Engineer. The Engineer or Owner may also specify in writing, before the work commences, the method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise these matters shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be determined by using 100 per cent, unless otherwise specified, of the latest schedule of Equipment Ownership Expense adopted by the Associated General Contractors of America Where practicable the terms and prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be incorporated in the Written Extra Work Order. The fifteen (15 %) percent of the "actual field cost" to be paid the Contractor shall cover and compensate him for his profit, overhead, general superintendence and field office expense, and all other elements of cost and expense not embraced within the "actual field cost" as herein defined, save that where the Contractor's Camp or Field Office must be maintained primarily on account of such Extra Work; then the cost to maintain and operate the same shall be included in the "actual field cost " No claim for Extra Work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by the Engineer. In case any orders or instructions, either oral or written, appear to the Contractor to involve Extra Work for which he should receive compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, he shall make written request to the Engineer for written order authorizing such Extra Work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute Extra Work, or as to the payment therefor, and the Engineer insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making written request for written order and shall keep an accurate account of the "actual field cost" thereof, as provided under Method (C). The Contractor will thereby preserve the right to submit the matter of payment to arbitration, as hereinbelow provided. 6.04 Time of Filing Claims gencond msdspec It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor shall be in writing and filed with the Engineer within thirty (30) days after the Engineer has given any directions, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to take exception. The Engineer shall reply within thirty (30) days to such written exceptions by the Contractor and render his final decision in writing. In case the Contractor should appeal from the Engineer's decision, any demand for arbitration shall be filed with the Engineer and the Owner in writing within ten (10) days after the date of delivery to Contractor of the Engineer's final decision. It is further agreed that final acceptance of the work by the Owner and the acceptance by the Contractor of the final payment shall be a bar to any claims by either party, except claims by Owner for defective work or enforcement of warranties and except as noted otherwise in the contract documents. GC -29 6.05 Continuing Performance The Contractor shall continue performance of the contract during all disputes or disagreements with the Owner. The production or delivery of goods, the furnishing of services and the construction of projects or facilities shall not be delayed, prejudiced or postponed pending resolution of any disputes or disagreements, except as the Owner may otherwise agree in writing. 6.06 Arbitration gencond msuzpec All questions of dispute under this Agreement shall be submitted to arbitration at the request of either party to the dispute. The parties may agree upon one arbiter, otherwise, there shall be three, one named in writing by each party, and the third chosen by the two arbiters so selected; or if the arbiters fail to select a third within ten (10) days, he shall be chosen by a District Judge serving the County in which the major portion of the project is located, unless otherwise specified. Should the party demanding arbitration fail to name an arbiter within ten (10) days of the demand, his right to arbitrate shall lapse, and the decision of the Engineer shall be final and binding on him. Should the other party fail to choose an arbiter within ten (10) days, the Engineer shall appoint such arbiter. Should either party refuse or neglect to supply the arbiters with any papers or information demanded in writing, the arbiters are empowered by both parties to take ex parte proceedings. The arbiters shall act with promptness The decision of any two shall be binding on both parties to the contract. The decision of' the arbiters upon any questions submitted to arbitration under this contract shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action. The decision of the arbiter or arbiters may be filed in court to carry it into effect. The arbiters, if they deem the case demands it, are authorized to award the party whose contention is sustained, such sums as they deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident to the appeal, and if the appeal was taken without reasonable cause, they may award damages for any delay occasioned thereby. The arbiters shall fix their own compensation unless otherwise provided by agreement, and shall assess the cost and charges of the arbitration upon either or both parties. The award of the arbiters must be made in writing. 7. Abandonment of Contract 7.01 Abandonment by Contractor In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from the Owner, or the Engineer, or if the Contractor fails GC -30 gencond mst/spec to comply with the orders of the Engineer, when such orders are consistent with the Contract Documents, then, and in that case, where performance and payment bonds exist, the Sureties on these bonds shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor. After receiving said notice of abandonment the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work, may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety on the performance bond, or another contractor in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefor (except when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Section 6, Extra Work and Claims), it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement. Where there is no performance bond provided or in case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinbefore provided for, within ten (10) days after service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners: (1) The Owner may thereupon employ such force of men and use such machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as said Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the Contractor under and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then said Contractor shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner, or (2) The Owner under competitive bids, taken after notice published as required by law, may let the contract for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract. In case there is any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the Contractor and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete any such contract prove to be less than would have been the cost to complete under this contract, the Contractor and /or his Surety shall be credited therewith. GC -31 When the work shall have been substantially completed the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and Certificates of Completion and Acceptance, as provided in Paragraph 5.06 hereinabove, shall be issued. A complete itemized statement of the contract accounts, certified to by the Engineer as being correct, shall then be prepared and delivered to the Contractor and his Surety, whereupon the Contractor and /or his Surety, or the Owner as the case may be, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said statement, within fifteen (15) days after the date of such Certificate of Completion. In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this contract; or when the Contractor and /or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the owner, then all machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the Contractor and /or his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the Contractor and /or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the Owner within the time designated hereinabove, and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such equipment and materials, shall be mailed to the Contractor and his Surety at the respective addresses designated in this contract, provided, however, that actual written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condition. After mailing, or other giving of such notice, such property shall be held at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety subject only to the duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (15) days from the date of said notice the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety. Such sale may be made at either public or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies, which remain on the work, and belong to persons other than the Contractor or his Surety, to their proper owners. The books on all operations provided herein shall be opened to the Contractor and his Surety. 7.02 Abandonment by Owner gencond mstlspec In case the Owner shall fail to comply with the terms of this contract, and should fail to comply with said terms within ten (10) days after written notification by the Contractor, then the Contractor may suspend or wholly abandon the work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools and equipment, and all materials on the site of work that have not been included in payments to the Contractor and have not been wrought into the work. And thereupon the Engineer shall make an estimate of the total amount earned by the Contractor, which estimate shall include the value of all work actually completed by said Contractor (at the prices stated in the attached proposal where unit prices are used), the value of all partially completed work at a fair and equitable price, and the amount of all Extra Work performed at the prices agreed upon, or provided for by the terms of this contract, and a reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the Contractor GC -32 to carry the whole work to completion and which cannot be utilized. The Engineer shall then make a final statement of the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the above estimate all previous payments by the Owner and all other sums that may be retained by the Owner under the terms of this Agreement and shall certify same to the Owner who shall pay to the Contractor on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the notification by the Contractor the balance shown by said final statement as due the Contractor, under the terms of this Agreement. 8. Subcontractors 8.01 Award of Subcontracts for Portions of the Work gencond mm/spec Unless otherwise specified in the Contract Documents or in the Instructions to Bidders, the Contractor, as soon as practicable after the award of the Contract, shall furnish to the Engineer in writing for acceptance by the Owner and the Engineer a list of the names of the Subcontractors proposed for the principal portions of the work. The Engineer shall promptly notify the Contractor in writing if either the Owner or the Engineer, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any Subcontractor on such list and does not accept him. Failure of the Owner or Engineer to make objection promptly to any Subcontractor on the list shall constitute acceptance of such Subcontractor. The Contractor shall not contract with any Subcontractor or any person or organization (including those who are to furnish materials or equipment fabricated to a special design) proposed for portions of the work designated in the Contract Documents or in the Instructions to Bidders or, if none is so designated, with any Subcontractor proposed for the principal portions of the work who has been rejected by the Owner and the Engineer. The Contractor will not be required to contract with any Subcontractor or person or organization against whom he has a reasonable objection. If the Owner or Engineer refuses to accept any Subcontractor or person or organization on a list submitted by the Contractor in response to the requirements of the Contract Documents or the Instructions to Bidders, the Contractor shall submit an acceptable substitute and the Contract amount shall be increased or decreased by the difference in cost occasioned by such substitution and an appropriate change order shall be issued; however, no increase in the Contract amount shall be allowed for any such substitution unless the Contractor has acted promptly and responsively in submitting for acceptance any list or lists of names as required by the Contract Documents or the Instructions to Bidders. If the Owner or the Engineer requires a change of any proposed Subcontractor or person or organization previously accepted by them, the Contract amount shall be increased or decreased by the difference in cost occasioned by such change and an appropriate Change Order shall be issued GC-33 The Contractor shall not make any substitution for any Subcontractor or person or organization who has been accepted by the Owner and the Engineer, unless the substitution is acceptable to the Owner and the Engineer. 8.02 Subcontractual Relations gencond met/spec All work performed for the Contractor by a Subcontractor shall be pursuant to an appropriate written agreement between the Contractor and the Subcontractor (and where appropriate between Subcontractors and Sub - subcontractors) which shall contain provisions that: (1) preserve and protect the rights of the Owner and Engineer under the Contract with respect to the work to be performed under the subcontract so that the subcontracting thereof will not prejudice such rights; (2) require that such work be performed in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents; (3) require submission to the Contractor of the applications for payment under each subcontract to which the Contractor is a party, in reasonable time to enable the Contractor to apply for payment in accordance with this contract; (4) require that all claims for additional costs, extensions of time, damages for delays or otherwise with respect to subcontracted portions of the work shall be submitted to the Contractor (via any Subcontractor or Sub - subcontractor where appropriate) in sufficient time so that the Contractor may comply in the manner provided in the Contract Documents for like claims by the Contractor upon the Owner; (5) obligate each subcontractor specifically to consent to the provisions of this section. A copy of all such Subcontract Agreements shall be filed by the Contractor with the Engineer before the Subcontractor shall be allowed to commence work. 8.03 Payments to Subcontractors The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, an amount directly based upon the value of the work performed and allowed to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's work, less the percentage retained from payments to the Contractor. The Contractor shall also require each Subcontractor to make similar payments to his subcontractors. If the Engineer fails to approve a payment for any cause which is the fault of the Contractor and not the fault of a particular Subcontractor, the Contractor shall pay the Subcontractor on demand, made at any time after the Certificate for Payment should otherwise have been Issued, for his work to the extent completed, less the retained GC -34 percentage. The Engineer may, on request and at his discretion, furnish to any Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of completion certified to the Contractor on account of work done by such Subcontractors. Neither the Owner nor the Engineer shall have any obligation to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys to such Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required. 9. Separate Contracts 9.01 Owner's Right to Award Separate Contracts gencond msUspec The Owner reserves the right to award other contracts in connection with other portions of the project under these or similar conditions of the Contract. When separate contracts are awarded for different portions of the Project, "The Contractor" in the contract documents in each case shall be the contractor who signs each separate contract 9.02 Mutual Responsibility of Contractors The Contractor shall afford other contractors reasonable opportunity for the introduction and storage of their materials and equipment and the execution of their work, and shall properly connect and coordinate his work with theirs. If any part of the Contractor's work depends for proper execution or results upon the work of any other separate contractor, the Contractor shall inspect and promptly report to the Engineer any apparent discrepancies or defects in such work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. Failure of the Contractor to so inspect and report shall constitute an acceptance of the other contractor's work as fit and proper to receive his Work, except as to defects which may develop in the other separate contractor's work after the execution of the Contractor's Work. Should the Contractor cause damage to the work or property of any separate contractor on the project, the Contractor shall, upon due notice, settle with such other contractor by agreement or arbitration, if he will so settle. If such separate contractor sues the Owner or initiates an arbitration proceeding on account of any damage alleged to have been so sustained, the Owner shall notify the Contractor who shall defend such proceedings at the Contractor's expense, and if any judgment or award against the Owner arises therefrom the Contractor shall pay or satisfy it and shall reimburse the Owner for all attorney's fees and court or arbitration costs which the Owner has incurred.

I. History of Standard. This standard was first approved on June 15, 1980, under the designation AWWA D105, Standard for Disinfection of Water Storage Facilities. The 1980 edition was developed from information originally contained in AWWA D102 -64, modified to include disinfection of water storage facilities constructed either of steel or other materials. The standard has been redesignated AWWA C652 with this edition. This standard describes methods of disinfecting water storage facilities that are newly constructed, have been entered for construction or inspection purposes, or that continue to show the presence of coliform bacteria during normal operation. A storage facility is defined to be a reservoir from which water, without further treatment, is supplied directly to the distribution piping system for domestic use. From a practical standpoint, this standard applies to the disinfection of covered storage facilities constructed of steel, concrete, or materials which would provide a similar structure from a water quality standpoint. Since wood may support growth of coliform bacteria, it is recommended that any submerged wood surface (columns, baffles, etc.) be coated with epoxy or other durable and effectively impermeable paint or coating approved for domestic water use. Parts of this standard may be applicable to the disinfection of large, finished- water, open storage reservoirs, such as reservoirs formed by concrete or earth dams, but such applications are incidental, and this standard is not intended to cover those kinds of storage facilities. Three methods of chlorinating storage facilities are described in this standard. The utility should decide which method is most suitable for a given situation. Choice of the method used should include consideration of the availability of materials and equipment for disinfection, the training of personnel who will perform the disinfection, and safety. For example, the application of gas chlorination should be used only where properly designed and constructed equipment is available; makeshift equipment is not acceptable where liquid chlorine cylinders are used. Spray equipment should be used inside the storage facility only when thorough ventilation is assured or when appropriate protection is provided by the use of canister -type gas masks or self - contained breathing units. If a method is selected that requires the draining of a storage facility in order to dispose of highly chlorinated water, then thorough consideration should be given to the effect on the receiving environment. If there is any question as to whether a chlorinated -waste discharge may cause damage to fish life, plant life, physical installations, or other downstream water uses of any type, then an adequate amount of a reducing agent should be applied to the discharged water in order to thoroughly neutralize the chlorine residual. 1I. Major Revisions. The major change in this edition is redesignation of the standard from AWWA D 105 to AWWA C652. Other changes include modification of the footnote to Table A.1 of the appendix to clarify that amounts of chemicals indicated in the table are for initial chlorine concentrations by volume, and some minor editing. III. Information Regarding Use of This Standard. This standard is written as though the work will be done by the owner's personnel. If the owner is contracting for such work to be done, appropriate provisions should be included in the contract agreement to ensure that the contractor is specifically instructed as to his responsibilities. At the least, the owner should specify: 1. Standard used —that is, AWWA C652, Standard for Disinfection of Water Storage Facilities. 2. Method of disinfection to be used. 3. Any required disposal and precautions to be taken in disposing of chlorinated water in the storage facility. 4. Bacteriological testing and method to be used. 5. Redisinfection procedure, if required.

Sec. 1.3 Record of Compliance The record of compliance shall be the bacteriological test results certifying that the water held in the storage facility is free of coliform bacteria contamination. SECTION 2: CLEANING _ ____ All scaffolding, planks, tools, rags, and any other material not part of the structural or operating facilities of the tank shall be removed. Then the surfaces of the walls, floor, and operating facilities of the storage facility shall be cleaned thoroughly using a high - pressure water jet, sweeping, scrubbing, or equally effective means. All water, dirt, and foreign material accumulated in this cleaning operation shall be discharged from the storage facility or otherwise removed. Sec. 2.1 Other Materials Following the cleaning operation, the vent screen, overflow screen, and any other screened openings shall be checked and put in satisfactory condition to prevent birds, insects, and other possible contaminants from entering the facility. Any material to be in the storage facility that could not feasibly be present during the cleaning shall be placed in the storage facility in a clean and neat mariner to minimize the introduction of dirt or other foreign material. (An example of this is the placing of a layer of limestone granules on the unpainted bottom of the storage facility to prevent corrosion.) --"± SECTION 3: FORMS OF CHLORINE •AWWA 1330I—Standard for Liquid Chlorine. tAWWA B300— Standard for Hypochlorites. FOR DISINFECTION -.: - . The forms of chlorine that may be used in the disinfecting operations are liquid chlorine, sodium hypochlorite solution, and calcium hypochlorite granules or tablets. Sec. 3.1 Liquid Chlorine* Liquid chlorine contains 100- percent available chlorine and is packaged in steel containers usually of 100 -1b, 150 -1b, or 1 -ton net chlorine weight. Liquid chlorine shall be used only (1) in combination with appropriate gas -flow chlorinators and ejectors to provide a controlled high - concentration solution feed to the water to be chlorinated; (2) under the direct supervision of a person who is familiar with chlorine's physiological, chemical, and physical properties, and who is trained and equipped to handle any emergency that may arise; and (3) when appropriate safety practices are observed to protect working personnel and the public. Sec. 3.2 Sodium Hypochloritet Sodium hypochlorite is available in liquid form in glass, rubber - lined, or plastic containers typically ranging in size from 1 qt to 5 gal; containers of 30 -gal or larger size may be available in some areas. Sodium hypochlorite contains approximately from 5- percent to 15- percent available chlorine by volume, but care must be used in control of conditions and length of storage to minimize its deterioration. DISINFECTION OF WATER FACILITIES 3 Sec. 3.3 Calcium Hypochlorite* Calcium hypochlorite is available in granular form or in small tablets, and contains approximately 65- percent available chlorine by weight. The material should be stored in a cool, dry, dark environment to minimize its deterioration. SECTION 4: ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF CHLORINATION methods of chlorination are explained in this standard. Typically, only one method will be used for a given storage- facility disinfection, but combinations of the methods may be used. The three methods are (1) chlorination of the full storage facility such that at the end of the appropriate retention period the water will have a free chlorine residual of not Tess than 10 mg /L, (2) spraying or painting of all storage facility water - contact surfaces with a solution of 200 -mg /L available chlorine, and (3) chlorination of full storage facility with water having a free chlorine residual of 2 mg /L after 24 h.t Sec. 4.1 Chlorination Method 1 The water storage facility shall be filled to the overflow level with potable water to which enough chlorine is added to provide a free chlorine residual in the full facility of not less than 10 mg /L at the end of the appropriate 6 -h or 24 -h period, as described in Sec. 4.1.4. The chlorine, either as calcium hypochlorite, sodium hypochlorite, or liquid chlorine, shall be introduced into the water as described hereafter. 4.1.1 Liquid chlorine use. Liquid chlorine shall be introduced into the water filling the storage facility in such a way as to give a uniform chlorine concentration during the entire filling operation. Portable chlorination equipment shall be carefully operated and shall include a liquid- chlorine cylinder, gas -flow chlorinator, chlorine ejector, safety equipment, and an appropriate solution tube to Inject the high - concentration chlorine solution into the filling water. The solution tube shall be inserted through an appropriate valve located on the inlet pipe and near the storage facility such that the chlorine solution will mix readily with the inflowing water. 4.1.2 Sodium hypochlorite use. Sodium hypochlorite shall be added to the water entering the storage facility by means of a chemical -feed pump, or shall be applied by hand - pouring into the storage facility and allowing the inflowing water to provide the desired mixing. 4.1.2.1 When a chemical - feed pump is used, the concentrated chlorine solution shall be pumped through an appropriate solution tube so as to inject the high - concentration chlorine solution at a rate that will give a uniform chlorine concentration in the filling water The solution tube shall be inserted through an appropriate valve located on the inlet pipe and near the storage facility, or through an appropriate valve located on the storage facility such that the chlorine solution will mix readily with the filling water. 4.1.2.2 Whcn the sodium hypochlorite is poured into the storage facility, the filling of the storage facility shall begin immediately thereafter or as soon as any removed manhole covers can be closed. The sodium hypochlorite may be poured through the cleanout or inspection manhole in the lower course or level of the storage facility, or in the riser pipe of an elevated tank, or through the roof manhole. The sodium hypochlorire shall be poured into `A.W\EA 8300— Standard for Hypochlorite . tFor reference, amounts of chemicals needed to give various chlorine concentrations are given in Appendix A, Table A 1. 1 1 1 1 1 1 ,1 1 1 1. 1. 1 1. 1: 'i 1I water in the storage facility when such water is not more than 3 ft in depth, nor Less than 1 ft in depth or as close thereto as manhole locations permit. 4.1.3 Calcium hypochlorite use. Calcium hypochlorite granules or tablets broken or crushed to sizes not larger than 1/4-in. maximum dimension may be poured or carried into the storage facility through the cicanout or inspection manhole in the lower course or level of the storage facility, or into the riser pipe of an elevated tank, or through the roof manhole. The granules or tablet particles shall be placed in the storage facility prior to flowing water into it, and they shall be located so that the inflowing water will ensure a current of water circulating through the calcium hypochlorite and dissolving it during the filling operation. The calcium hypochlorite shall be placed only on dry surfaces unless adequate precautions are taken to provide ventilation or protective breathing equipment. 4.1.4 Retention period. After the storage facility has been filled with the disinfecting water, it shall stand full as follows: (I) for a period of not less than 6 h when the water entering the storage facility has been chlorinated uniformly by gas -feed equipment or chemical pump, (2) for a period of not less than 24 h when the storage facility has been filled with water that has been mixed with sodium hypochlorite or calcium hypochlorite within the storage facility as described in Sec. 4.1.2 and Sec. 4.1.3. 4.1.5 Handling of disinfection water. After the retention period stated in Sec. 4.1.4, the free chlorine residual in the storage facility shall be reduced to a concentration appropriate for distribution (not more than 2 mg /L) by completely draining the storage facility and refilling with potable water, or by a combination of additional holding time and blending with potable water having a low chlorine concentration. When an appropriate chlorine concentration is reached, and subject to satisfactory bacteriological testing and acceptable aesthetic quality, such water may be delivered to the distribution system. 4.1.5.1 The environment to which the chlorinated water is to be discharged shall be inspected, and if there is any question whether the chlorinated discharge will cause damage, then a reducing agent shall be applied to the water to be wasted to thoroughly neutralize the chlorine residual in the water. Federal, state, or local environmental regulations may require special provisions or permits prior to disposal of highly chlorinated water. The proper authorities should be contacted prior to disposal of highly chlorinated water. Sec. 4.2 Chlorination Method 2 A solution of 200 -mg /L available chlorine shall be applied directly to the surfaces of all parts of the storage facility that would be in contact with water when the storage facility is full to the overflow elevation. 4.2.1 Method of application. The chlorine solution may be applied with suitable brushes or spray equipment. The solution shall thoroughly coat all surfaces to be treated, including the inlet and outlet piping, and shall be applied to any separate drain piping such that it will have available chlorine of not less than 10 mg /L when filled with water. Overflow piping need not be disinfected. 4.2.2 Retention. The disinfected surfaces shall remain in contact with the strong chlorine solution for at least 30 min, after which potable water shall be admitted, the drain piping shall be purged of the 10 -mg /L chlorinated water, and the storage facility shall then be filled to its overflow level. Following this procedure, and subject to satisfactory bacteriological testing and acceptable aesthetic quality, such water may be delivered to the distribution system. Sec. 4.3 Chlorination Method 3 Water and chlorine shall be added to the storage facility in amounts such that initially the solution will contain 50 -mg /L available chlorine and will fill approximately 5 percent of the total storage volume. This solution shall be held in the storage facility for a period of not less than 6 h. The storage facility shall then be filled to the overflow level by flowing potable DISINFECTION OF WATER FACILITIES 5 water into the highly chlorinated water. It shall be held full for a period of not Tess than 24 h. All highly chlorinated water shall then be purged from the drain piping. Following this procedure, and subject to satisfactory bacteriological testing and acceptable aesthetic quality, the remaining water may be delivered to the distribution system. 4.3.1 Adding chlorine. Chlorine shall be added to the storage facility by the method described in Sec. 4.1.1, Sec. 4.1.2, or Sec. 4.1.3. The actual volume of the 50 -mg /L chlorine solution shall be such that, after the solution is mixed with filling water and the storage facility is held full for 24 h, there will be a frcc chlorin residual of not less than 2 mg/L. Sec. 4.4 Bacteriological Sampling and Testing After the chlorination procedure is completed, and before the storage facility is placed in service, water from the full facility shall be sampled and tested for coliform organisms in accordance with the latest edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. The testing method used shall be either the multiple-rube fermentation technique or the membrane - filter technique. 4.4.1 Test for odor. The water in the full facility should also be tested to assure that no offensive odor exists due to chlorine reactions or excess chlorine residual. 4.4.2 Results of testing. If the test for coliform organisms is negative, then the storage facility may be placed in service. If the rest shows the presence of coliform bacteria, the situation shall be evaluated by a qualified engineer. In any event, repeat samples shall be taken until two consecutive samples are negative, or the storage facility shall again be subjected to disinfection. 4.4.3 Care in sampling. The samples shall be taken from a sample rap on the outlet piping from the storage facility or from a sample tap connected directly to the storage facility. In either case, the operation shall be such as to ensure that she sample collected is actually from water that has been in the storage facility. 4.4.4 Recommended additional samples. During the disinfection operation and the required sampling of water from the storage facility, it is recommended that samples be taken from water inflowing to the storage facility to determine ifcoliforms are present in the typical potable water source.
