Determine the amount owing to Contractor based on Engineer's observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment, and recommend in writing payments to Contractor in such amounts. Such recommendations of payment will constitute a representation to City that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of Engineer's knowledge, information and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections of others, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by Engineer. The issuance of a recommendation will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified.

Furnish one set of reproducible drawings, electronic files (AutoCAD 2000i on CD ROM), and two sets of prints of the record drawings to the City. Because data stored in electronic media format can deteriorate or be modified inadvertently or otherwise without authorization of the data's creator, the party receiving electronic files agrees that it will perform acceptance tests or procedures within 60 days, after which the receiving party shall be deemed to have accepted the data thus transferred. Any errors detected within the 60 -day acceptance period will be corrected by the party delivering the electronic files. Engineer shall not be responsible to maintain documents stored in electronic media format after acceptance by the City. When transferring documents in electronic media format, Engineer makes no representations as to long term compatibility, usability, or readability of documents resulting from the use of software application packages, operating systems, or computer hardware differing from those used by Engineer at the beginning of this Project. The City may make and retain copies of Documents for information and reference in connection with use on the Project by the City. Such Documents are not intended or represented to be suitable for reuse by the City or others on extensions of the Project or on any other project. Any such reuse or modification without written verification or adaptation by Engineer, as appropriate for the specific purpose intended, will be at the City's sole risk and without liability or legal exposure to Engineer or to Engineer's subconsultants. The City shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer and Engineer's subconsultants from all claims, damages, losses, and expenses, including attorneys' fees arising out of or resulting there from.

Determine the amount owing to Contractor based on Engineer's observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment, and recommend in writing payments to Contractor in such amounts. Such recommendations of payment will constitute a representation to City that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of Engineer's knowledge, information and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections of others, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by Engineer. The issuance of a recommendation will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified.

Furnish one set of reproducible drawings, electronic files (AutoCAD 2000i on CD ROM), and two sets of prints of the record drawings to the City. Because data stored in electronic media format can deteriorate or be modified inadvertently or otherwise without authorization of the data's creator, the party receiving electronic files agrees that it will perform acceptance tests or procedures within 60 days, after which the receiving party shall be deemed to have accepted the data thus transferred. Any errors detected within the 60 -day acceptance period will be corrected by the party delivering the electronic files. Engineer shall not be responsible to maintain documents stored in electronic media format after acceptance by the City. When transferring documents in electronic media format, Engineer makes no representations as to long term compatibility, usability, or readability of documents resulting from the use of software application packages, operating systems, or computer hardware differing from those used by Engineer at the beginning of this Project. The City may make and retain copies of Documents for information and reference in connection with use on the Project by the City. Such Documents are not intended or represented to be suitable for reuse by the City or others on extensions of the Project or on any other project. Any such reuse or modification without written verification or adaptation by Engineer, as appropriate for the specific purpose intended, will be at the City's sole risk and without liability or legal exposure to Engineer or to Engineer's subconsultants. The City shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer and Engineer's subconsultants from all claims, damages, losses, and expenses, including attorneys' fees arising out of or resulting there from.
