  3. Change Orders, Unilateral Change Orders, and Clarifications issued after execution of the Contract; and 

  4. All provisions of the Bid Documents, as defined in Document 00 21 13 (Instructions to Bidders), or Request for Qualifications and Request for Proposals, not in conflict with the foregoing. 

  2. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall be construed to create a contractual relationship between the City and a Subcontractor, Supplier, Lower-Tier Subcontractor, or Supplier or a person or entity other than the City and Contractor.

  3. The Contracting Requirements and the General Requirements contain information necessary for completion of every part of the Project and are applicable to each Document of the Specifications. Where Items of Work are performed under subcontracts, each Item shall be subject to the Contracting Requirements and General Requirements.

  1.03 MEANING AND INTENT OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

  1. The Contract Documents are complementary; what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all. The Contract Documents will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, the City’s Charter and Administrative Code, and applicable building codes and statutes of the city and/or county where the Project is located. 

  2. The intent of the Contract Documents is to describe and provide for a functionally complete and operational Project (or part thereof) to be constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents. All Work, Materials, and equipment that may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents or from prevailing custom or trade usage as necessary to properly execute and complete the Work to conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents shall be provided by Contractor with no change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time. 

  3. Arrangement and titles of Drawings, and organization of the Specifications into Divisions, Documents, parts and articles in the Contract Documents shall not be construed as segregating the various units of Material and labor, dividing the Work among Subcontractors, or establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade. Contractor may arrange and delegate its Work in conformance with trade practices, but Contractor shall be responsible for completion of all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. The City assumes no liability arising out of jurisdictional issues raised or claims advanced by trade organizations or other interested parties based on the arrangement or manner of subdivision of the content of the Drawings and Specifications. The City assumes no responsibility to act as arbiter to establish subcontract limits between portions of the Work. 

  4. In interpreting the Contract Documents, words describing Materials or Work with a well-known technical or trade meaning, unless otherwise specifically defined in the Contract Documents, shall be construed in accordance with such well-known meaning.

  5. A typical or representative detail on the Drawings shall constitute the standard for workmanship and Material throughout corresponding parts of the Work. Where necessary, and where reasonably inferable from the Drawings, Contractor shall adapt such representative detail for application to such corresponding parts of the Work. The details of such adaptation shall be submitted to the City for approval. Repetitive features shown in outline on the Drawings shall be in exact accordance with corresponding features completely shown.

  6. In the event of a conflict in the Contract Documents regarding the quality of a product, Contractor shall request Clarification from the City as provided in Paragraph 6.02 before procuring said product or proceeding with the Work affected thereby.

  7. The layout of mechanical and electrical systems, equipment, fixtures, piping, ductwork, conduit, specialty items, and accessories on the Drawings is shown in diagrams and symbols to illustrate the relationships existing between the parts of the Work; all variations in alignment, elevation, and detail required to avoid interferences and satisfy architectural and structural limitations are not necessarily shown. If rerouting, i.e. relocating a duct, pipe, conduit or similar utilities from the indicated room or space to another room or space to avoid structural interferences, results in a total linear footage which exceeds 125% of the indicated route if the structural interferences did not exist, then Contractor will be compensated for the amount in excess of 125% under the provisions for Change Orders of Article 6 of these General Conditions. Actual layout of the Work shall be carried out without affecting the architectural and structural integrity and limitations of the Work; shall be performed in such sequence and manner as to avoid conflicts; shall provide clear access to all control points, including valves, strainers, control devices, and specialty items of every nature related to such systems and equipment; shall obtain maximum headroom; and shall provide adequate clearances as required for operation and maintenance, and as required by the California Building Standards Code or Code of other public authority having jurisdiction.

  8. Unless otherwise Indicated in the Contract Documents, the Drawings shall not be scaled for dimensions when figured dimensions are given, or when dimensions could be calculated or field measured. When a true dimension cannot be determined from the Drawings or field measurement, Contractor shall request promptly the same from the City and shall obtain a Clarification from the City before proceeding with the Work affected thereby.

  9. In the interest of brevity, the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as “all” and “any” and articles such as “the” and “an,” but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears in another is not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement.

  10. When there is a conflict between existing on-Site conditions and information Indicated on the Drawings, other than Differing Site Conditions as defined in Paragraph 3.03, the existing condition shall govern. Contractor shall perform the Work and adjust to the existing condition at no additional cost to the City, provided Contractor should have known of such conflicts based on its reasonable investigation of the Site prior to submitting its Bid in accordance with the requirements of Document 00 21 13 (Instructions to Bidders).

  11. All references in the Contract Documents to satisfactory, sufficient, reasonable, acceptable, suitable, proper, correct, or adjectives of like effect shall be construed to describe an action or determination of the City Representative for the sole purpose of evaluating the completed Work for compliance with the requirements of the Contract Documents and conformance with the intent as expressed in subparagraph 1.03B. Such determinations of the City Representative shall be final and conclusive.

  12. All references to specific Contract Documents shall exclude extension numbers generated for different types of City contracts. For example, references to “Document 00 52 00” shall refer to Document 00 52 00, Document 00 52 00.01, 00 52 00.02, or 00 52 00.03, whichever is included in this Contract.

     2. Perimeter Lead Wipe Samples: Wipe samples may be collected outside or within representative Work Areas prior to start-up of the lead removal or lead hazard control activities in order to establish the background or pre-existing lead dust content or at the option of the Airport’s Environmental Consultant when evidence of contamination on adjacent areas is visually apparent.
        1. For lead removal Work, the Environmental Consultant may evaluate the lead dust concentrations outside the Work Area on the floor and other horizontal surfaces during the Work progress by collecting wipe samples to evaluate the integrity of the containment and to detect dust contamination resulting from:
           1. Failure to adequately cordon off or contain Work Area dusts, clean-up debris, and use approved work practices, such as wet wiping and HEPA vacuuming.
           2. Incomplete decontamination of personnel or equipment removed from the Work Area(s).
        2. If the test results indicate that any of the level is greater than the background concentrations, or 400 µg/ft^2 for exterior horizontal and floor surfaces, 250 µg/ft^2 for interior horizontal surfaces, and 40 µg/ft^2 for interior floor or horizontal surfaces, whichever is greater, Contractor shall:
           1. Immediately and automatically stop all Work, until corrective actions are completed.
           2. If the sample was collected inside the building but outside the critical barriers or within the decontamination assemblies, isolate and decontaminate the affected area using a HEPA-vacuum and wet cleaning methods.
  2. Inspections
     1. Work Area Inspections
        1. Precede all inspection requests by an evaluation by Contractor’s supervisor.
        2. Contractor’s supervisor shall provide in writing a signed or initialed request for inspection to the Airport’s Environmental Consultant.
        3. Inspections are required at the completions of the following job phases:
           1. Pre-cleaning Inspection(s)
           2. Work Area Preparation Inspection
           3. Pre-Encapsulation Inspection
           4. Final Visual Inspection
           5. Waste Handling Inspection
        4. Precede all inspection requests by an evaluation by Contractor’s superintendent. The superintendent shall be a person who has not participated in the supervision, preparation, remediation, and cleanup of the Work Area, except on small-scale, short-duration projects where Contractor’s foreman may serve as the superintendent. The superintendent shall verify that criteria for acceptability have been met prior to requesting an inspection.
        5. Contractor’s superintendent shall provide in writing a signed or initialed request for inspection to the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Request all inspections at least 24 hours in advance of the time required; inspections shall be performed between the hours of 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday, unless otherwise noted. Written requests may be waived and verbal requests accepted for short-duration projects at the discretion of the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Adequate lighting shall be provided by Contractor.
     2. Pre-cleaning Inspection
        1. The Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall inspect all surfaces requiring pre-cleaning to verify that dust and debris have been removed and cleaned up to an acceptable condition. Multiple inspections may be required to cover all systems and the required phasing of activities.
        2. No object shall be covered until inspected or approved by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant as stated in this Document. When covered before such inspections are made and approved, Contractor shall uncover such work for inspection, subsequently restore it, and replace work of others damaged thereby, all at Contractor’s expense.
     3. Work Area Preparation Inspection
        1. After preparing the Work Area and decontamination enclosure system(s) by Contractor, the Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall conduct an initial inspection to ensure completeness of Work and type containment according to the Specifications.
        2. No lead material removal Work shall commence without the approval of the Airport’s Environmental Consultant following a Work Area preparation inspection.
     4. Pre-Encapsulation Inspection
        1. After detail cleaning has been completed and Contractor’s superintendent has checked and approved the area as adequately cleaned, the Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall inspect all surfaces requiring encapsulation to verify that hazardous materials have been removed and the area and abated surfaces leaned to an acceptable condition.
        2. During such inspections, Contractor will provide adequate lighting, ladders, scaffolding, and workers so as not to curtail the systematic inspection of all surfaces by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Areas requiring rework will be tagged in a manner to allow continuation of the inspection in a timely manner. The Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall not be expected to remain within an area requiring extensive re-cleaning.
        3. The pre-encapsulation inspection may be staged to allow inspection of detailed surfaces concurrent with the removal activities in adjoining areas ready for inspection, allowing a buffer zone to protect against cross-contaminating inspected surfaces. For lead removal, a final overall inspection will be required to reconfirm the final wipe down of all horizontal surfaces, which may have been subjected to contamination from airborne releases during the staged inspection process. The staging of inspections shall not preclude Contractor from conducting internal quality control inspections prior to requesting the Airport’s Environmental Consultant’s review.
     5. Final Visual Inspection: After the encapsulation process is complete, the encapsulant is dry, and all debris bags, tools, supplies, and equipment have been removed from the work area, as applicable, the Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall inspect the Work Area to verify the cleanliness of the area, including but not limited to, public and attic areas. The Work Area must be free of visible debris, dust, water, or loose and peeling paints as a minimum.
     6. Waste Handling Inspection: The Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall inspect waste as it leaves the regulated area. Contractor shall ensure that all waste is packaged, labeled, and handled as required. The Airport’s Environmental Consultant may inspect the waste dumpsters at any time, including prior to transportation. Coordinate temporary relocation to a transport staging area with the Airport’s Environmental Consultant prior to removal.

  6. SFO Commissioning, Activation, and Simulation Standards

  C.     Commissioning Process

  1. The Cx process is a collaborative effort between the Airport, Contractors, and the Commissioning Provider (CxP). The Airport utilizes the Cx process for commissioning various systems as defined in Section 1.2 SYSTEMS WITHIN THE COMMISSIONING SCOPE OF WORK. This section provides a general overview of the Cx process; specific responsibilities are defined in Sections 1.05, 1.06, 1.07, and 1.08 and Part 3.

  2. Commissioning is a systematic process of ensuring that all building systems perform interactively according to the design intent and the owner’s operational needs. This is achieved by beginning in the design phase and documenting design intent and continuing through construction, acceptance, and the warranty period with actual verification of performance. The commissioning process shall encompass and coordinate the traditionally separate functions of system documentation, equipment startup, control system calibration, testing and balancing, performance testing, ongoing performance monitoring, and staff training.

  3. The Cx process shall be performed according to the following:

  <Note for Contract Manager: UPDATE REFERENCES BELOW AS REQUIRED (Delete this once complete)>

  a. San Francisco Environment Code Chapter 7 (current version)

  b. Title 24 California Building Code Standards (including Part 11, CALGreen)

  c. ASHRAE Guideline 0-2005 and ASHRAE Guideline 1.1-2007 for HVAC&R Systems (or latest revisions of ASHRAE Guidelines)

  d. SFO Commissioning, Activation, and Simulation Standards

  <Note for Contract Manager: UPDATE WITH THE LEED VERSION AND RATING SYSTEM PURSUED (IF APPLICABLE). NOTE ADDITIONAL LEED SCOPE (BEYOND THE TYPICAL FUNDAMENTAL & ENHANCED COMMISSIONING) (Delete this once complete).>

  4. The Sustainability Cx process shall be performed to meet the LEED EA Prerequisite Fundamental Commissioning and Verification and EA Enhanced Commissioning Option 1 Path 2 requirements of LEED New Construction/Core and Shell/Commercial Interiors (LEED NC/CS/CI): New Construction v4.1 (or current version) for the applicable systems.

  a. Sustainability Cx may be categorized under four types, based on LEED NC/CS/CI requirements:

  i. Fundamental Commissioning

  ii. Enhanced Commissioning

  iii. Monitoring Based Commissioning (MBCx)

  iv. Building Envelope Commissioning (BECx)

  5. Commissioning Provider 

  a. The Commissioning Provider (CxP) is an individual or a team responsible for managing the commissioning process for the Airport. The CxP may consist of third-party consultants, Airport representatives, and/or Contractors as determined by the Airport.

  b. More than one CxP may be required for a project. Each focusing on their area of expertise. For example, a Sustainability Commissioning Provider for the LEED required Sustainability Cx and an Airport Systems Commissioning Provider for Airport Systems Cx.

  c. The CxP develops the Cx Plan and submits it to the Airport for review and acceptance.

  d. The CxP also provides the Commissioning reports and applicable LEED certification documents.

  6. System Integrator

  a. If the project includes Level 3 Systems (as defined below) the Contractor shall include on their team a System Integrator to facilitate the design, construction, and testing of the integrated systems. The System Integrator is responsible for developing the Integrated System Test Plans including but not limited to interface diagrams, sequence of operations, pre-functional checklists, and functional performance tests.

  7. Example of typical Cx team organization chart:

  

  8. Commissioning Levels

  a. The Airport utilizes three commissioning procedure levels to verify system functionality (see Section 1.02: SYSTEMS WITHIN THE COMMISSIONING SCOPE OF WORK):

  i. Level 1 is used to commission building elements with limited functionality or performance level that have no connectivity to technology or monitoring systems. Installation verification satisfies the verification/testing requirements. Level 1 verification of systems is required for standard General Contractor Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures for each system or unit installed, ensuring its readiness for facility activation.

Prior to any excavation, Contractor shall locate and uncover existing utilities including services and laterals to a point 1 foot below the utility. Submit a report identifying each underground utility and its depth and station.
     3. Excavations around underground electrical ducts and conduits shall be performed using extreme caution to prevent injury to workmen or damage to electrical ducts or conduits. Similar precautions shall be exercised around gas lines, telephone, and television cables.
     4. Excavations shall have surface dimensions of no more than 18 inches by 18 inches. Air spades and vacuum excavators shall be used to limit the size of excavations and damage to adjacent facilities. All potholes shall be backfilled after completion of potholing Work. In existing paved areas, the disturbed area shall be paved with 1 inch of cutback.
  4. Interferences: If interferences occur at locations other than shown on the Drawings, Contractor shall notify the City Representative, and a method for correcting said interferences shall be supplied by the City Representative. Payment for interferences that are not shown on the Drawings, or which could not have been inferred from surface indications, shall be in accordance with the provisions of the General Conditions. If Contractor does not expose all required utilities prior to general excavation, Contractor shall not be entitled to additional compensation for work necessary to avoid interferences, nor for repair to damaged utilities.
     1. Any necessary relocations of utilities, whether shown on the Drawings or not, shall be coordinated with the City Representative.
  5. Shutdowns: Planned utility service shutdowns shall be accomplished during a period of minimum use. In some cases, this may require night or weekend Work. Such Work shall be at no additional cost to the Airport. Contractor shall schedule Work so that service would be restored in the minimum possible time and shall cooperate with the City Representative in minimizing the shutdowns of utility systems.
     1. Contractor shall not disconnect or shut down any existing utilities. When it is necessary to disconnect or shut down a utility, Contractor shall notify the City Representative and request that the utility be disconnected or shut down. Contractor shall give a minimum of three Working Days’ notice when making this request. The City Representative will coordinate the utility disconnection or shutdown and will notify Contractor that the disconnection or shutdown has been made and that Contractor can proceed with the Work. Contractor shall program the Work so that service will be restored in a minimum possible time.
  6. Existing gas, water, sewer, and telephone laterals will not be specifically shown on the Drawings but do exist in excavation areas. Protect all service laterals from damage due to construction operations. If any laterals are damaged, notify the City Representative immediately. The cost of repair shall be borne by Contractor.

   

  3.03  EXCAVATION

  1. Contractor shall remove all excavated non-hazardous material from the Airport immediately after excavation and shall notify the City Representative immediately if any indication of hazardous or potentially hazardous material (including asbestos pipe) or groundwater is encountered.

  4. Do not allow construction traffic nor highway or Airport traffic over the excavation area until the backfill has been brought back even with existing adjacent grade.
  5. Add water to the backfill material or dry the material as necessary to obtain the optimum moisture content for the compaction specified. If the City Representative determines that the nature of the ground in which the excavation lies precludes compaction of the backfill to the specified density, the backfill shall be compacted to the maximum practicable density. Employ such means as may be necessary to secure a uniform moisture content throughout the material of each layer being compacted. After the material has been brought to the required moisture content, it should be compacted with the equipment approved by the City Representative to achieve the specified compaction. Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining the specified soil densities. Should Contractor fail, through negligence or otherwise, to compact the fill to the specified density, or to backfill and compact to surface grade, thus permitting saturation of the backfill material by rainwater or by water from any other source, the faulty material shall be removed and replaced with approved material. The approved replacement material shall be compacted to the specified density at optimum moisture content. No additional payment shall be made to Contractor for performing such removal and replacement work.
  6. Compaction by flooding, ponding, or jetting will not be permitted.
  7. For all piping or conduits in any excavated and backfilled area, such as at manholes or for building connections, the structural backfill shall be first compacted to a level at least 3 feet above the top of the piping or conduit elevation and then retrenched to pipe grade.
  8. A clay plug with a permeability of 1 x 10^-6 centimeters per second (cm/sec) or less shall be constructed in all open utility trenches to minimize the transport of contaminated groundwater through the trench backfill.

  3.10 SHOP DRAWINGS, PRODUCT DATA, AND SAMPLES

  1. Shop Drawings, product data, Samples, and similar submittals are not Contract Documents.

  6. The review, acceptance, approval, or other action taken by the City upon Contractor’s submittals such as Shop Drawings, product data, Samples, and other submittals, shall apply to general design concepts only, and shall in no way relieve Contractor from its responsibility to notify the City of errors or omissions therein in accordance with Paragraph 3.01, nor from providing all labor, equipment, and Materials in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents necessary for the proper execution of the Work. The City’s action will be taken with such reasonable promptness provided that the City shall be provided a reasonable time, as set forth in Division 01, to permit adequate review. Approval/acceptance of submittals shall not affect the Contract Sum, and additional costs that may result therefrom shall be solely Contractor’s obligation. Contractor shall be responsible to provide engineering or other costs necessary to prepare the submittals and obtain approvals required by the Contract Documents from the City or other authorities having jurisdiction. The City is not precluded, by virtue of such approvals/acceptances, from obtaining a credit for construction cost resulting from allowed concessions in the Work or Materials therefor.

  4. This indemnity provision is in addition to all other hold harmless and indemnity clauses in the Contract Documents and shall survive Final Completion and termination of the Contract. The notice, cooperation, and control of defense provisions set forth in Paragraph 3.19 shall apply to this intellectual property indemnity.
  5. If the City is enjoined from the operation or use of the Work, or any part thereof, as a result of any suits or claims for infringement or unauthorized use of a patent right, copyright, trademark, and/or other intellectual property right, Contractor shall, at its sole expense and at no cost to the City, take reasonable steps to procure the right to operate or use the Work.

This indemnification shall not be valid in the instance where the loss is caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the person indemnified herein. Contractor’s obligations under this Paragraph 3.19 apply regardless of whether or not such claim, suit, action, loss, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of the City under any provision of this Contract, Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless the City for liability attributable to the active negligence of the City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between Contractor and the City or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where the City is shown to have been actively negligent and where the City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of the City.
     1. Contractor’s defense, indemnity, and hold harmless obligations shall extend to City consultants (e.g., design professionals and construction managers) providing services under separate written agreement with the City covering any portion of the Project and designated as additional insured in Document 00 73 16 (Insurance Requirements).

  2. Contractor acknowledges that any claims, demands, losses, damages, costs, expenses, and legal liability that arise out of, result from, or are in any way connected with the release or spill of any legally designated hazardous material or waste or contaminated material as a result of the Work performed under this Contract are expressly within the scope of this indemnity, and that the costs, expenses, and legal liability for environmental investigations, monitoring, containment, removal, repair, cleanup, restoration, remedial work, penalties, and fines arising from the violation of any local, state, or federal law or regulation, attorney’s fees, disbursements, and other response costs are expressly within the scope of this indemnity.
  3. The City and other indemnified parties specified in subparagraph 3.19A shall provide Contractor with prompt written notice after receipt of any claim, action, or demand (“claim”) made by a third party against the City and/or other indemnified party, provided, however, that no delay on the part of the City or other indemnified party shall relieve Contractor from any obligation hereunder. Contractor shall obtain the City’s and other indemnified parties’ consent for Contractor’s choice of counsel and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, such that any responsive pleadings may be timely filed, and in every instance, within 30 days after the City or other indemnified party has given notice of the claim, and provided further that the City and other indemnified parties may retain separate co-counsel at their expense and participate in the defense of the claim. If the interests of Contractor and the City and/or other indemnified party conflict and counsel chosen by Contractor cannot, in the City’s or other indemnified parties’ reasonable opinion, adequately represent Contractor, the City and/or other indemnified party, then the cost and expense associated with the City and/or other indemnified party retaining separate co-counsel shall be borne by Contractor, otherwise, the cost and expense of separate co-counsel retained by the City and/or other indemnified party shall be borne by the City or other indemnified party, as applicable. Subject to Contractor’s obligation to reimburse the City’s and other indemnified parties’ costs of same, the City and other indemnified parties will assist Contractor in the defense of the claim by providing cooperation, information, and witnesses as needed to the extent there is no material conflict of interest. 
     1. So long as Contractor has assumed and is conducting the defense of a claim in accordance with the preceding subparagraph, (i) Contractor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the claim without the prior written consent of the City or other indemnified party, as applicable, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages by Contractor and does not impose any obligation upon the City and/or other indemnified party in connection with such judgment or settlement and Contractor obtains the full and complete release of the City and/or other indemnified parties; and (ii) the City and/or other indemnified parties will not consent to the entry of judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of Contractor.
     2. If Contractor does not assume and conduct the defense of claim as required above, (i) the City or other indemnified party may defend against, and consent to, the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate, and the City or other indemnified party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, Contractor; and (ii) Contractor will remain responsible for any losses the City and/or other indemnified party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, of caused by the claim to the fullest extent provided in this Paragraph 3.19.

  5. In the event that Contractor and its insurance carrier(s) in bad faith refuse to negotiate and compensate a third party or parties for property damage or personal injuries which arise out of Contractor’s performance of the Work, the City shall have the right to estimate the amount of damages and to pay the same, and the amount so paid shall be deducted from the amount due Contractor under this Contract, or an appropriate amount shall be retained by the City until all suits or claims for said damages shall have been settled or otherwise disposed of and satisfactory evidence to that effect shall have been furnished to the City. 
  6. The defense and indemnity obligations of this Paragraph 3.19 shall survive Final Completion and termination of this Contract. Contractor’s defense and indemnity obligations shall extend to claims arising after the Work is completed and accepted if the claims are directly related to alleged acts or omissions by Contractor that occurred during the course of the Work. 

  3.20 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; INDEMNIFICATION

  1.

           6. All bags shall be transported through the building in clean sealed containers that have never been inside an asbestos Work Area, mini enclosure, or decontamination unit.
           7. Mini Enclosure Decontamination: At completion of all Work, decontaminate the Work and change rooms as set forth herein.

  
  3.03 NEGATIVE PRESSURE SYSTEMS

  1. The procedures described in this Article shall be followed when asbestos remediation is performed in enclosed areas or when the procedure is applicable to all asbestos remediation activities:
     1. Quality Assurance
        1. Pressure Differential Monitor: Monitor pressure differential across each decontamination unit with a differential pressure meter equipped with a seven-day circular chart recorder and datalogger. The meter shall be equipped with an audible warning, which will sound if the pressure differential drops below 0.02 inch of water.
        2. Emergency Power Back-up: Provide emergency backup power for Negative Pressure Machines.
     2. Objectives
        1. Air Filtration Devices: Install HEPA filtered Negative Pressure Machines (air filtration devices or AFDs) to exhaust a sufficient amount of air from the contained area to outside the building, resulting in a negative pressure and thereby minimizing or eliminating airborne fiber migration.
        2. Make-up Air: Minimize potential for heat related illnesses to workers and lower Work Area airborne fiber levels by either providing increased exhaust or by recirculating air in the Work Area via AFDs.
     3. Pressure Differential: Provide a fully operational Negative Pressure System within the Work Area, maintaining a pressure differential across Work Area enclosures of -0.02 inch of water or better, at all locations and at all times. Before disturbance of any asbestos-containing material, demonstrate to the Airport’s Environmental Consultant the pressure differential by use of pressure differential meters or manometers.
     4. Monitoring: Continuously monitor and record the pressure differential between the Work Area and the building outside of the Work Area with a monitoring device that incorporates a chart recorder and datalogger.
     5. Preparation of the Work Area
        1. Location of Exhaust Units: Locate exhaust unit(s) so that makeup air enters the Work Area primarily through the decontamination facilities and traverses the Work Area as much as possible. This may be accomplished by positioning the exhaust unit(s) at a maximum distance from the worker access opening or other makeup air sources. Place the end of unit or its exhaust duct through an opening in the plastic barrier or wall covering. The plastic around the unit or duct shall then be sealed with tape. Note that covering any part of the exhaust end of the unit reduces the capacity of the unit (cfm), which may then require that additional Negative Pressure Machines be added. Exhaust Locations: Ventilation units shall be exhausted to the outside of the building whenever feasible. They shall not be exhausted into occupied areas of the building. A minimum 12-inch diameter extension ducting shall be used to reach from the Work Area to the outside, when required.
        2. Supplemental Makeup Air Inlets: Where required for proper air flow through the workspace, provide openings in the plastic sheeting that allow air from outside the Work Area into the Work Area, in a location and manner accepted by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Locate auxiliary makeup air inlets as far as possible from the exhaust unit(s) (e.g., on an opposite wall), off the floor (preferably near the ceiling), and away from barriers that separate the Work Area from occupied clean areas. Cover with weighted flaps to reseal automatically if the negative pressure system should shut down for any reason. Spray the flap and around the opening with spray adhesive so that the flap seals if it closes.
     6. Use of Negative Pressure Systems
        1. General: Each unit shall be serviced by a dedicated minimum 110-120V circuit with an overload device tied into an existing building electrical panel that has sufficient spare capacity to accommodate the load of all negative pressure units connected. Dedication of an existing circuit may be accomplished by shutting down existing loads on the circuit.
        2. Testing the System: Test the negative pressure system before any asbestos-containing material is wetted or removed. After the Work Area has been prepared, the decontamination facility set up, and the exhaust unit(s) installed, start the unit(s) (one at a time). Demonstration of the operation and testing of the negative pressure system to the Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall include but not be limited to the following:
           1. The plastic barriers and sheeting move lightly in toward the Work Area.
           2. The decontamination unit curtains move lightly in toward the Work Area.
           3. There is a noticeable movement of air through the decontamination unit. Use a non-irritant smoke tube to demonstrate air movement from clean room to shower room, from shower room to equipment room, and from equipment room to Work Area.
           4. There is a positive motion of air across all Work Areas in which Work will be performed. Demonstrate using non-irritants.
           5. Use a differential pressure meter or manometer to demonstrate a pressure difference of at least 0.02 inch of water across every barrier separating the Work Areas from the adjoining areas, including with the adjacent floors.
        3. Use of the System During Remediation Operations
           1. Starts exhaust units before beginning Work (before any asbestos-containing material is disturbed). Run units continuously to maintain a constant negative pressure until decontamination of the Work Area is complete. Do not turn off units at the end of the work shift or if remediation operations temporarily stop.
           2. Do not shut down Negative Pressure System during encapsulation procedures, unless authorized by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant in writing.
           3. Start remediation Work at a location farthest from the exhaust units and proceed toward them. If an electric power failure occurs, immediately stop all remediation Work and do not resume until power is restored and exhaust units are operating again.
           4. At completion of the remediation Work, allow exhaust units to run as specified herein, to remove airborne fibers that may have been generated during remediation Work and cleanup and to purge the Work Area with clean makeup air. If dry or only partially wetted asbestos material was encountered during remediation Work, the units may be required to run for a longer time after decontamination.
        4. Dismantling the System: When a final inspection and the results of final air clearance tests indicate that the area has been decontaminated, remove exhaust units from the Work Area. Before removing the units from the Work Area, remove and properly dispose of the pre-filter, and seal the intake vent with 6-mil polyethylene to prevent environmental contamination from the filters.
     7. Temporary Pressure Differential and Air Circulation Systems
        1. Ventilation Requirements: Provide fully operational negative pressure systems supplying a minimum of four air change per hour and better than -0.02 in. w.g.
        2. Installation Precaution: Openings made in the enclosure system to accommodate the exhaust units shall be made airtight with tape and/or caulking as needed. If more than one unit is installed, only one unit shall be turned on at a time to check the integrity of wall barriers for secure attachment and the need for additional barrier reinforcement.
        3. Electrical Requirements: Adequate ground-faulted power supply systems shall be used for the ventilating units.
        4. Exhaust Monitoring: Careful installation, air monitoring, and daily inspections shall be done to ensure that the ducting does not release fibers into uncontaminated adjacent building areas and the outside.
        5. Documentation: The proper operation of ventilation units (including all filter changes) shall be documented in the daily log.
        6. Testing and Monitoring of the Enclosure Systems for Leakage
           1. Contractor shall use non-irritants, or the equivalent, to test the effectiveness of the barrier systems prior to obtaining an isolation inspection from the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Prior to any smoke testing, Contractor shall make suitable arrangements with the Airport and the fire department having jurisdiction over the building to ensure that no inappropriate response to the smoke is made by the fire department.
           2. Once the enclosure systems are constructed and reinforced as necessary, Contractor shall test the enclosure systems for leakage using non-irritants. During this test, the ventilation units shall not be in operation. If leaks are detected, Contractor shall repair or reconstruct the enclosures as needed. Ventilation equipment shall be sufficient to maintain a minimum pressure differential of minus 0.02 inch of water column relative to adjacent, unsealed areas. Contractor shall monitor the pressure differential continuously with a seven-day circular chart recorder and datalogger. At no time shall the building ventilation system be used as the local exhaust system.

           3. Incomplete decontamination of personnel or equipment removed from the Work Areas.
     3. Should elevated fiber concentrations occur due to any of the above, Contractor shall immediately cease remediation activities until the fault is corrected. Work shall not recommence until authorized by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant.
     4. Inside the Work Area during Work: The Airport’s Environmental Consultant will monitor airborne fiber concentrations inside the Work Area during Work. The purpose of this air monitoring is to detect airborne fiber counts that may significantly challenge the ability of the Work Area isolation procedures to protect the balance of the building or outside of the building from contamination.
     5. Work Area Clearance: The Airport’s Environmental Consultant will monitor airborne fiber concentrations for Work Area clearance. The purpose of this air monitoring is to determine if the levels inside the Work Area comply with an acceptable level. The Airport’s Environmental Consultant shall sample and analyze Work Area clearance air samples.
  4. Airborne Fiber Levels
     1. Inside Work Area
        1. Contractor shall maintain an average airborne concentration in fully contained Work Areas of less than Cal/OSHA permissible exposure limits (PELs). The PEL is 0.1 f/cc for asbestos. If the Time Weighted Average (TWA) for any work shift exceeds the PEL, Contractor shall revise work procedures to lower concentrations. If concentrations remain above the PEL for two consecutive eight-hour TWAs, stop all Work, leave Negative Pressure System in operation, and notify Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Do not recommence Work until authorized in writing by Airport’s Environmental Consultant.
        2. If airborne asbestos concentrations exceed the Cal/OSHA excursion limit (EL) of 1.0 f/cc for any period of time, cease all Work until fiber counts fall below the EL and notify the Airport’s Environmental Consultant. Do not recommence Work until authorized in writing by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant.
     2. Outside Work Area
        1. Sample results above the following levels shall be considered as “elevated” and shall require actions by Contractor.
           1. Asbestos Action Levels:
              1. Greater than 0.01 f/cc or background level (whichever is higher), by NIOSH 7400 or equivalent method.
              2. Greater than 0.018 asbestos structures per cubic centimeter of air (AS/cc) or background level (whichever is higher), by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) as specified in 40 CFR 763 (US EPA AHERA).
     3. Response Actions
        1. If any air sample taken outside of the Work Area exceeds the Asbestos Action Levels, Contractor shall immediately and automatically stop all Work. If this air sample was taken inside the building and outside of critical barriers around the Work Area, immediately erect new critical barriers as set forth this Document, to isolate the affected area from the balance of the building. Erect critical barriers at the next existing structural isolation of the involved space (e.g. wall, ceiling, and floor).
        2. Decontaminate the affected area in accordance with this Document.
        3. Wear respiratory protection in affected area as set forth herein this Document until area is cleared for preoccupancy in accordance with this Document.
        4. Leave critical barriers in place and ensure that the operation of the Negative Pressure System in the Work Area results in a flow of air from the balance of the building into the affected area.
        5. If the exit from the clean room of the personnel decontamination unit enters the affected area, establish a temporary decontamination facility consisting of a shower room and changing room as set forth in this Document. After cleaning and decontamination of the affected area, remove the shower room and leave the changing room in place as an air lock.
     4. Fibers Counted: The following procedure shall be used to resolve any disputes regarding fiber types when a project has been stopped due to excessive airborne fiber levels inside or outside the Work Area. Airborne fibers referred to above include all fibers regardless of composition as counted in the NIOSH Method 7400. If Work has stopped due to elevated airborne fiber levels, the Airport’s Environmental Consultant may collect air samples in the same area for analysis by TEM.
     5. Effect on the Contract Sum: If TEM is used to arrive at the basis for determining airborne fiber levels in accordance with the above paragraph, and if airborne asbestos concentration exceeds 0.018 AS/cc outside the Work Area, then the costs of such analysis shall be borne by Contractor, at no additional cost to the Airport.
  5. Schedule of Samples
     1. Prevalent Level
        1. Before the start of Work, the Airport’s Environmental Consultant will secure the following air samples to establish a prevalent level:

           

        2. The prevalent level is a level above which Contractor shall be required to take action to reduce airborne asbestos levels. The prevalent level shall be considered to be the largest of the following:
           1. 10% above the average of the samples collected inside or outside each Work Area.
           2. 10% above the average of the samples collected outside the building.
           3. Asbestos: 0.01 f/cc.

Minimum sample volumes shall be at least 1199 liters for 25 mm cassettes. At the discretion of the Airport’s Environmental Consultant with approval from a Certified Industrial Hygienist, the sample volumes may be reduced to prevent overloading of sampling cassettes by interfering particulates (such as welding fumes and demolition dust) rendering analysis impossible. If sample volumes are reduced, the laboratory shall be instructed to analyze additional grids so that the analytical sensitivity for TEM analysis remains at or below 0.005 AS/cc.
              6. Analysis of samples shall be in accordance with AHERA for TEM analysis.
              7. The area shall be considered cleared for re-occupancy when the results of all inside samples are less than 0.018 AS/cc of air by TEM (analyzed based on AHERA Method). Z-testing shall not be used as a means for comparing the interior levels against those of the exterior for the purpose of clearing the Work Area.
           5. Where levels in the Work Area fail the clearance standard as determined by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant, Contractor shall re-clean the Work Area. This process of re-cleaning, allowing surfaces to dry, and retesting shall be repeated, at no additional cost to the Airport or the Airport’s Environmental Consultant, until the clearance standard is achieved.
     2. Additional Cleanup and Monitoring Expense
        1. Contractor’s Responsibility: Contractor shall pay for Air Monitoring and visual inspections conducted by the Airport’s Environmental Consultant in the shower area, clean room, adjacent airlocks, and any areas surrounding the outside of the Work Area that become contaminated by asbestos debris.
        2. Responsibility of the Airport’s Environmental Consultant: The Airport’s Environmental Consultant is responsible for the cost of the final round of Clearance Air Monitoring. However, should the Work Area fail to meet acceptable clearance criteria, such failed testing shall be paid for by Contractor. The Airport’s Environmental Consultant reserves the right, at any time to take additional samples such as bulk samples and/or tape samples to evaluate the adequacy of surface cleaning.
     3. The services of the testing laboratory selected to perform laboratory analysis of the TEM clearance air samples shall be fully accredited by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). The technician at the job site shall send the samples by overnight mail or courier, so that verbal reports are available within 24 hours.

• GENERAL —
  1. • 1. Work schedules shall be based on and incorporate the Contract milestone and completion dates specified in the Contract Documents.
       2. Overall time of completion and time of completion for each milestone shown on Work schedules shall adhere to times in the Agreement, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion is requested by Contractor and agreed to by the Airport. A Change Order shall formalize any such agreement.
          1. The Airport is not required to accept an earlier (advanced) schedule (i.e., one that shows early completion dates for the Contract Time).
          2. Contractor shall not be entitled to extra compensation in event agreement is reached on an earlier (advanced) schedule and Contractor completes its Work, for whatever reason, beyond completion date shown in earlier (advanced) schedule, but within the Contract Time.
          3. A schedule showing the Work completed in less than the Contract Time, which has been accepted by the Airport, shall be considered to have Project Float. The Project Float is the time between the scheduled completion date of the Work and Substantial Completion date. Project Float is a resource available to both the Airport and Contractor.
       3. Float Ownership

  Neither the Airport nor Contractor owns Float. The Project owns the Float. As such, liability for delay of the Substantial Completion date rests with the party whose actions, last in time, actually cause delay to the Substantial Completion date.

  2. • 1. 1. For example, if Party A uses some, but not all of the Airport Float, and Party B later uses the remainder of the Float as well as additional time beyond the Float, Party B shall be liable for the time that represents a delay to the Substantial Completion date.
          2. Party A would not be responsible for the time since it did not consume all of the Float and additional float remained; therefore, the Substantial Completion date was unaffected by Party A.
       2. Work Periods
          1. Standard Work Period

  The standard workweek shall be Monday through Friday and the standard workday shall be from 7 am to 3:30 pm, except as may otherwise authorized by the Contract Manager. Unless otherwise noted "day" shall be defined as a calendar day of 24 hours beginning at midnight.

  3. • 1. 2. Extended Work Period

  Upon authorization by the City Representative, the Work period may be extended to 48 hours per calendar week encompassing six days of eight hours per day.

  4. • 2. 3. Emergency Work Period

  Emergencies may arise during the progress of the Work, which may require special treatment or may make advisable extra shifts of workers to continue the Work in excess of eight hours per day. Contractor shall be prepared in case of such emergencies to make all necessary repairs and promptly execute such Work when required by the City Representative. Determinations made by the City Representative for handling emergencies shall be final and conclusive.

  5. • 3. 4. Holiday Periods

  In order to prevent undue traffic congestion, schedule Work to minimize construction activity during holiday periods as described herein.

  6. • 4. 5. 1. Thanksgiving each construction year:
                1. No terminal roadway lanes shall be blocked by construction on the Monday and Tuesday preceding Thanksgiving Day.
                2. Project shall be shut down from end of workday the Tuesday before Thanksgiving through, and including, the Monday following Thanksgiving.
             2. Christmas through New Years each construction year:

  Project shall be shut down from end of workday the Friday before Christmas through, and including, January 2nd.

  7. • 5. 1. 1. All other legal holidays:

  When a holiday falls on a Friday, Project shall be shut down from end of workday Wednesday to start of work Tuesday. When holiday falls on a Monday, Project shall be shut down from end of workday Thursday to start of workday Wednesday. The City observes the following other legal holidays:  Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Indigenous Peoples Day, Veterans Day.

  8. • 6. 2. 2. Some or all of the above holiday period requirements may be waived if a written request is submitted by Contractor to the City Representative at least 10 Working Days prior to the start of the holiday period.
          3. Stand-by Time
             1. In order to accommodate Airport operational conditions or circumstances, Contractor may be required to suspend Work, but have its crew(s) and equipment remain at or near the Site of Work.
             2. When Stand-by Time is ordered by the Airport, Stand-by Time shall be paid on Force Account, except that Contractor is permitted a maximum mark-up for overhead, profit, and other costs of 5% on the direct labor, materials, and equipment costs.
             3. Contractor shall not be paid for Stand-by Time when Work stoppage is caused by Contractor or its workers, Subcontractors or their workers, a breakdown on Contractor-supplied equipment, shortage of materials or fuel, or other similar circumstances within Contractor’s control or the control of Subcontractors or Suppliers.
       7. Monthly CPM Schedule updates shall be the basis for evaluating job progress, payment requests, and time extension requests. Responsibility for developing Contract CPM Schedule and monitoring actual progress as compared to schedule rests with Contractor.
       8. Failure of Contractor to include any element of the Work in the Work schedules, or any inaccuracy in progress schedule will not relieve Contractor from the responsibility for accomplishing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Airport’s acceptance of schedule shall be for its use in monitoring and evaluating job progress, payment requests, and time extension requests, and shall not, in any manner, impose a duty of care upon the Airport, or act to relieve Contractor of its responsibility for means and methods of construction.
       9. Contractor shall transmit Contract files to the Airport on a USB flash drive at times requested by the Airport.
       10. Transmit each item under form approved by the Airport.
           1. Identify Project, Contract number, and name of Contractor.
           2. Provide space for Contractor’s approval stamp and the Airport’s review stamps.

• PARKING AREAS FOR CONSTRUCTION PERSONNEL VEHICLES —

  On-Airport 

  No on-site parking areas are available for construction personnel. No reserved parking will be provided, private vehicles of contractor and subcontractor personnel can be parked in SFO public garage at prevailing rates. The contractor shall, at its sole expense provide transportation from parking areas on or outside SFO property to the project job site. Contractor shall coordinate with SFO construction inspector assigned to the project.

• EXECUTION —

  3.01      GENERAL

  1. Contractor shall exercise every reasonable precaution, including temporary and permanent measures, throughout the duration of the Project to control erosion and prevent or minimize pollution of receiving surface waters. Siltation control measures shall be applied to erodible materials exposed by any activity associated with the non-hazardous waste removal construction including, but not limited to, local material sources and haul roads. Additional information on erosion and sediment control practices is contained in the Airport’s SWPPP and Water Board approved publications are listed on their Storm Water Program site: http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/‌stormwater/training.shtml.
  2. Any temporary measures shall be coordinated with Work to the extent practicable to ensure economical, effective, and continuous erosion and siltation control and pollution prevention. Permanent pollution control measures and facilities shall be installed as the Work progresses.
  3. Contractor shall inspect erosion and siltation control devices and measures for deficiencies immediately before and immediately after each rainfall and at least daily during prolonged rainfall. Deficiencies shall be corrected immediately. Failure on the part of Contractor to maintain erosion and siltation control devices in a functioning condition may result in the Airport notifying Contractor in writing of specific deficiencies, and if Contractor fails to correct the identified deficiencies within 24 hours after receipt of such notification, the Airport may require Contractor to discontinue Work in other areas and concentrate efforts toward rectifying the specified deficiencies. Alternatively, the Airport may proceed to remedy specified deficiencies and deduct the entire cost of such Work from payments due to Contractor.
  4. Contractor, and all Subcontractors performing Work with the potential to impact storm water quality, shall notify the Airport and, if applicable, RWQCB at least 48 hours prior to the start of the applicable Work.

  3.02      PRE-CONSTRUCTION CONTROL PRACTICES

  Once the Site is turned over to Contractor, Contractor shall institute pre-construction pollutant control measures. Once Contractor has control of the Site, Contractor shall be responsible for control of pollutants from the Site, even if construction has not commenced.

   

  3.03      STORAGE OF SOIL AND SOLID WASTE

  A.   Contractor shall place soil storage areas near construction entrances, away from waterways. All soil stockpiles shall have appropriate coverings, erosion and flooding control measures for minimizing water run-on and preventing the loss of sediments from stockpiles.

   

  B.   Contractor shall place waste storage areas near construction entrances, away from waterways. Waste shall be covered and have measures for preventing water from entering containment regions. Areas shall also include different covered storage containers for separating various types of waste. In addition, hazardous waste shall be separated from non-hazardous waste and dry hazardous waste shall be separated from saturated hazardous waste.

   

  3.04      SOIL STABILIZATION

  Soil stabilization practices that preserve existing vegetation shall be employed. Open graded areas shall be re-vegetated to the extent practical during and after construction. Soil stabilization practices may include hydro-seeding, erosion blankets or filter fabrics, stabilizing stakes or other methods.

   

  3.05      TRACKING SEDIMENT ONTO ROADS

  Contractor shall institute practices to reduce tracking of sediment onto public and private roads. These practices, such as wheel wash facilities, must be effective in preventing the deposition of sediments into storm drains and prevent production of airborne dust. Contractor shall sweep the public roadways that are affected by truck traffic from the site, as needed.

   

  3.06      WIND EROSION

  Contractor shall implement dust control measures that will generally stabilize exposed surfaces and minimize activities that suspend or track dust particles. Sediments must be removed from hard surfaces within and adjacent to the site. No debris shall be swept into storm drain systems. The Mel Leong Treatment Plant (MLTP), through the Airport’s BPPP Section, offers recycled water use for dust control.

   

  3.07      PRACTICES TO MINIMIZE CONTACT WITH STORM WATER

  Storm water management practices to minimize contact of construction vehicles, equipment, and materials with storm water shall be employed. 

  1. Contractor shall maintain, fuel and wash vehicles and equipment in a manner that will reduce or prevent soil and water pollution by petroleum products, antifreeze, grease, and other products associated with vehicle and equipment maintenance and operation.
  2.

Contractor shall submit a report to the City Representative identifying each underground abandoned fuel pipeline and its depth and station. Contractor shall identify in the report any variation in the elevations determined by potholing and the elevations shown on the drawings used for reference.
     2. Pothole excavations shall have surface dimensions of no more than 18 inches by 18 inches, unless otherwise approved by the City Representative. Air spades and vacuum excavators shall be used to limit the size of excavations and damage to adjacent facilities. Contractor shall backfill excavations after potholing is completed. In existing paved areas, backfill and restore as in accordance with the requirements of Specifications Division 02 and pave with 1 inch of cutback.
  5. Excavations around abandoned underground fuel pipelines shall be performed using extreme caution because the abandoned pipelines may contain petroleum hydrocarbon products in liquid and/or vapor form. Contractor shall be responsible for any consequential damage caused, or any remedial action necessitated, by improper handling or removal of abandoned fuel lines.
  6. After each abandoned pipeline is exposed, the owner/operator of the fuel line will be requested by the Airport to test the piping to verify the abandoned status of the pipeline. Contractor shall allow for five days in the schedule for the Airport to obtain the owner/operator’s verification of the pipeline status. In the event that the owner/operator of the pipeline fails to provide the necessary verification, Contractor shall determine the status of the pipeline using extreme care and proper safety precautions to allow for the possibility that the piping contains petroleum hydrocarbon fuel products in liquid and/or vapor form. 
  7. Upon receiving approval from the City Representative, Contractor shall saw cut the pipe at the limits of the trench excavation, remove the pipe section extending across the excavation, and dispose of it as detailed in Paragraph 3.02H below. No saw cutting shall be performed until Contractor has verified that the abandoned line does not contain petroleum products in liquid and/or vapor form. If the pipe contains liquid and/or vapor petroleum hydrocarbons, the owner/operator of the pipe shall be directed by the City Representative to drain the pipe of all such products. If the owner/operator cannot be identified, Contractor shall be directed to perform this task. Contractor shall use appropriate methods and personnel with expertise in draining abandoned fuel pipelines to perform this Work. Contractor shall exercise extreme care to eliminate the risk of fire, explosion, and accidental release of petroleum products into the environment. Contractor shall bear full responsibility for any damages caused by improper execution of this Work.
     1. Immediately after cutting out the section of piping, Contractor shall:
        1. Insert a wooden or rubber plug into each end of the abandoned pipe on both sides of the excavation and push the plug into the piping a minimum of 10 feet from the exposed end of the pipe
        2. Fill with concrete the ends of the piping up to the plug, and
        3. Fit and install by welding a watertight cap with a 3-inch long sleeve to each exposed end of the abandoned pipe.
     2. In the event that the abandoned pipeline has been filled previously with concrete, Contractor shall fit and install by welding a watertight cap with a 3-inch long sleeve to each exposed end of the abandoned pipe.
  8. All abandoned pipelines removed from the excavation shall be disposed of by Contractor, unless instructed otherwise by the City Representative. Such disposal operation shall be carried out in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and codes as described in Document 01 41 13 (Regulatory Requirements, References, Definitions, and Acronyms - Hazardous Materials).
  9. If any contaminated soil, groundwater, or free product is encountered in the vicinity of the abandoned fuel lines, Contractor shall follow the requirements of Document 01 35 43.16 (Excavation and Disposal of Contaminated Soil, Sludge, and Water) for removal, handling, transportation, and disposal or treatment of such materials, unless otherwise instructed by the City Representative.
  10. If any unknown abandoned fuel lines are encountered by Contractor during the construction activities, Contractor shall immediately cease all construction activities within a 20-foot radius from the exposed pipeline and isolate the fuel line with appropriate barricades. Contractor shall also immediately notify the City Representative of the finding and shall stringently follow the instructions of the City Representative for handling of the identified abandoned fuel line

  CONTRACT TIME FOR COMPLETION: Time allowed for all Work shall be as specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages).

  BASIS FOR AWARD:

  Without Alternates:
  If the City elects to proceed without Alternates, the Contract, if awarded, will be awarded to the responsible Bidder who submitted the lowest Total Base Bid Price without Alternates. Immediately prior to Bid opening, City will announce if the basis for award will be determined without consideration of Alternates. In addition, the engineer’s estimate will be announced immediately before the opening of the Bids.

  With Alternates:
  If the City elects to proceed with Alternates, the Alternates below, if used, will be selected by the City in a specific descending order of priority that will be announced immediately before the opening of the Bids. If any Alternates are selected by the City, the Contract will be awarded to the responsible Bidder who submitted the lowest Total Bid Price, including the selected Alternates.
  
  

  ALTERNATES: The Alternates below, if used, will be selected by the City in a specific descending order of priority which will be announced immediately before the opening of the Bids. In addition, the engineer’s estimate will be announced immediately before the opening of the Bids.

  1. If the Total Bid Price of the lowest responsible Bidder exceeds the Engineer's Estimate, then the Contract may be awarded to the lowest responsible Bidder.
  2. If the Total Bid Price of the responsible Bidder who submits the lowest responsive Bid does not exceed the engineer's estimate then the Contract will be awarded to the responsible Bidder who submits the lowest responsive Bid and whose Total Bid Price and greatest number of additive Alternates selected by the City in a descending order of priority do not exceed the construction budget amount.

  The Bidder further proposes and agrees that if an Alternate is incorporated in the Contract up to six (6) months after the date of the City's written notification of award of the Contract, the Contract Sum will be adjusted by the addition of the Alternate Price bid for the selected Alternate.

  SCHEDULE OF BID PRICES: The undersigned, having examined all referenced documents and the Drawings, understanding the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and the local conditions affecting the performance and costs of the Work, and having fully inspected the Site in all particulars, hereby proposes and agrees to fully perform the Work as indicated on the Drawings and in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents within the time stated therein, and for the following price(s):

• GENERAL. —
  1. • 1. Work schedules shall be based on and incorporate the Contract milestone and completion dates specified in the Contract Documents.
       2. Overall time of completion and time of completion for each milestone shown on Work schedules shall adhere to times in the Agreement, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion is requested by Contractor and agreed to by the Airport. A Change Order shall formalize any such agreement.
          1. The Airport is not required to accept an earlier (advanced) schedule (i.e., one that shows early completion dates for the Contract Time).
          2. Contractor shall not be entitled to extra compensation in event agreement is reached on an earlier (advanced) schedule and Contractor completes its Work, for whatever reason, beyond completion date shown in earlier (advanced) schedule, but within the Contract Time.
          3. A schedule showing the Work completed in less than the Contract Time, which has been accepted by the Airport, shall be considered to have Project Float. The Project Float is the time between the scheduled completion date of the Work and Substantial Completion date. Project Float is a resource available to both the Airport and Contractor.
       3. Float Ownership

  Neither the Airport nor Contractor owns Float. The Project owns the Float. As such, liability for delay of the Substantial Completion date rests with the party whose actions, last in time, actually cause delay to the Substantial Completion date.

  2. • 1. 1. For example, if Party A uses some, but not all of the Airport Float, and Party B later uses the remainder of the Float as well as additional time beyond the Float, Party B shall be liable for the time that represents a delay to the Substantial Completion date.
          2. Party A would not be responsible for the time since it did not consume all of the Float and additional float remained; therefore, the Substantial Completion date was unaffected by Party A.
       2. Work Periods
          1. Standard Work Period

  The standard workweek shall be Monday through Friday and the standard workday shall be from 7 am to 3:30 pm, except as may otherwise authorized by the Contract Manager. Unless otherwise noted "day" shall be defined as a calendar day of 24 hours beginning at midnight.

  3. • 1. 2. Extended Work Period

  Upon authorization by the City Representative, the Work period may be extended to 48 hours per calendar week encompassing six days of eight hours per day.

  4. • 2. 3. Emergency Work Period

  Emergencies may arise during the progress of the Work, which may require special treatment or may make advisable extra shifts of workers to continue the Work in excess of eight hours per day. Contractor shall be prepared in case of such emergencies to make all necessary repairs and promptly execute such Work when required by the City Representative. Determinations made by the City Representative for handling emergencies shall be final and conclusive.

  5. • 3. 4. Holiday Periods

  In order to prevent undue traffic congestion, schedule Work to minimize construction activity during holiday periods as described herein.

  6. • 4. 5. 1. Thanksgiving each construction year:
                1. No terminal roadway lanes shall be blocked by construction on the Monday and Tuesday preceding Thanksgiving Day.
                2. Project shall be shut down from end of workday the Tuesday before Thanksgiving through, and including, the Monday following Thanksgiving.
             2. Christmas through New Years each construction year:

  Project shall be shut down from end of workday the Friday before Christmas through, and including, January 2nd.

  7. • 5. 1. 1. All other legal holidays:

  When a holiday falls on a Friday, Project shall be shut down from end of workday Wednesday to start of work Tuesday. When holiday falls on a Monday, Project shall be shut down from end of workday Thursday to start of workday Wednesday. The City observes the following other legal holidays:  Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Indigenous Peoples Day, Veterans Day.

  8. • 6. 2. 2. Some or all of the above holiday period requirements may be waived if a written request is submitted by Contractor to the City Representative at least 10 Working Days prior to the start of the holiday period.
          3. Stand-by Time
             1. In order to accommodate Airport operational conditions or circumstances, Contractor may be required to suspend Work, but have its crew(s) and equipment remain at or near the Site of Work.
             2. When Stand-by Time is ordered by the Airport, Stand-by Time shall be paid on Force Account, except that Contractor is permitted a maximum mark-up for overhead, profit, and other costs of 5% on the direct labor, materials, and equipment costs.
             3. Contractor shall not be paid for Stand-by Time when Work stoppage is caused by Contractor or its workers, Subcontractors or their workers, a breakdown on Contractor-supplied equipment, shortage of materials or fuel, or other similar circumstances within Contractor’s control or the control of Subcontractors or Suppliers.
       7. Monthly CPM Schedule updates shall be the basis for evaluating job progress, payment requests, and time extension requests. Responsibility for developing Contract CPM Schedule and monitoring actual progress as compared to schedule rests with Contractor.
       8. Failure of Contractor to include any element of the Work in the Work schedules, or any inaccuracy in progress schedule will not relieve Contractor from the responsibility for accomplishing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Airport’s acceptance of schedule shall be for its use in monitoring and evaluating job progress, payment requests, and time extension requests, and shall not, in any manner, impose a duty of care upon the Airport, or act to relieve Contractor of its responsibility for means and methods of construction.
       9. Contractor shall transmit Contract files to the Airport on a USB flash drive at times requested by the Airport.
       10. Transmit each item under form approved by the Airport.
           1. Identify Project, Contract number, and name of Contractor.
           2. Provide space for Contractor’s approval stamp and the Airport’s review stamps.
           3. Submittals received from sources other than Contractor will be returned to Contractor without the Airport’s review.

  B. Acceptance Criteria:  System Acceptance is based on the Contractor’s ability to demonstrate that the systems and their components are installed, operate, and interact in accordance with the commissioning acceptance criteria.

  C. Activation: Activation refers to the transitional phase from construction into occupancy intended to ensure site readiness and that Airport stakeholders are fully prepared and equipped to utilize, manage, operate and maintain the facility on opening day and onwards.

  D. Activation Checklists: Activation checklists are comprehensive lists of tasks, related to either a system, process or facility, that need to be accomplished to support the opening. Unlike construction or Commissioning checklists, Activation checklists are stakeholder focused and tasks may be grouped by respective SEP or working group.

  E. Activation Plan: The project’s Activation Plan is prepared by the Airport and outlines the key steps necessary to ensure a successful opening and ongoing operations. The plan addresses the following areas:

  1. Operational Planning

  2. Familiarization and Training 

  3. Operational Readiness Trials

  4. Opening Day and Post-Opening Day Support

  F. Back-Checking: Back-Checking is the process of verifying that commissioning related issues have been resolved by the responsible party.  The back-checking process takes place once the Contractor has provided written notification that an issue or issues in the Commissioning Issues Log have been resolved, at which time the CxP verifies the resolution of the issue(s).

  G. Basis of Implementation (BoI): A document that records concepts, calculations, decisions, and product selections used to meet the OPR and to satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, standards, and guidelines.  The BoI includes cost models, project schedules, and other information necessary to articulate how the project will be delivered.

• CLARIFICATIONS AND CHANGES IN THE WORK —

  6.01 GENERALLY

  1. The City may, at any time between the NTP and Final Completion, and without notice to Contractor’s surety, order additions, deletions, or revisions in the Work by Change Order, Unilateral Change Order, or Field Memo. Contractor shall promptly comply with such orders and proceed with the Work, which shall be performed under the applicable requirements of the Contract Documents.
  2. Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time if Contractor performs work that is not required by the Contract Documents as amended, modified, or supplemented in writing.
  3. The procedures set forth in this Article 6 are intended to ensure that when Clarifications and changes in the Work are proposed, Contractor provides the City with its best estimate of the costs and impacts associated with each Clarification and/or change, so that the City may evaluate each potential change and proceed on an informed basis. The City also intends that the Clarification and Change Order procedures (including the use of Directive Change Orders, Unilateral Change Orders, and Force Account) facilitate payment to Contractor of additional, undisputed amounts.
  4. Failure by Contractor to comply with the procedures of this Article 6, including the failure to provide timely, sufficient information, and/or documentation to the City at the time of any Clarification or COR, shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent claim by Contractor arising out of such Clarification or Change Order.

      

  6.02 REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION AND CLARIFICATIONS

  1. Should there appear to Contractor to be a discrepancy in the Contract Documents, should questions arise as to the meaning or intent of the Contract Documents, or should the City’s comments on submittals returned to Contractor appear to Contractor to change the requirements or scope of the Contract Documents, Contractor shall submit an RFI to the City promptly in accordance with Division 01. Contractor shall coordinate and schedule its Work to provide the City sufficient time to issue a written reply to the RFI before proceeding with Work affected thereby.
  2. The City shall issue a reply to the RFI within 10 Working Days of receipt of the same. The reply may include written Clarifications as deemed by the City to be necessary and consistent with the Contract Documents. A Field Memo may require minor no cost/no time changes in the Work. If additional time is needed for the City to issue the reply, the City will, within the 10-Working-Day reply period, notify Contractor of the longer reply period.
  3. Clarifications of the Contract Documents issued by the City shall be binding on Contractor and shall be promptly executed by Contractor. The City’s right to clarify any element of the Contract Documents shall not be construed to entitle Contractor to a modification of the Contract Sum or a change in the Contract Time. Clarifications may include Field Memos, replies to RFIs, bulletins, or any other supplemental information provided in writing by the City.
     

  6.03 CHANGE ORDER REQUESTS AND PROPOSED CHANGE ORDERS

  1. COR Initiation: Should the City’s Clarification, in the opinion of Contractor, materially exceed or change the requirements of the Contract Documents, Contractor shall submit to the City a written COR within five Working Days of receipt of the Clarification or other written directive or determination. A COR shall reference the Clarification, Directive Change Order, or other written directive or determination and the relevant Specification and Drawings. A COR shall also include a cost proposal and/or a time adjustment proposal, as a good faith estimate of any additional compensation or time associated with the affected Work, documented in accordance with subparagraphs 6.03E and 6.03F, and a narrative describing the scope of the COR including means and methods, sequence of Work, and other information necessary to fully understand the scope of the COR. The COR shall also include, as a minimum standard, quantity take offs and extensions identifying equipment and Material against a specific Work task within the scope. Failure to submit a timely, fully documented COR shall constitute a waiver of any future claim for additional compensation or time relating to such Work.
  2. COR Review: The City will review the COR. Within 10 Working Days after receipt of the COR and all required supporting documentation, the City will issue a written determination accepting or rejecting the COR in whole or in part. If the City requires additional time to issue a determination, it shall notify Contractor of the same in writing, within the initial 10-Working-Day period. A final determination is any determination on a COR which states that it is final. If the City accepts the COR in whole, the City will issue a Final Change Order in accordance with Paragraph 6.04. If the City issues a final determination denying a COR in whole or in part, Contractor may contest the decision by filing a timely Notice of Potential Claim in accordance with Article 13 of these General Conditions. If the City does not issue a determination within the 10-Working-Day period, or such other period as set forth in a written notice, then the COR is deemed rejected and the City’s failure to issue a determination shall be treated as the issuance, on the last day of the applicable period, of a final decision denying the COR in its entirety.
  3. PCO Initiation: The City may initiate a change in the Work by issuing a Proposed Change Order (PCO). A PCO will include a detailed description of the proposed additions, deletions, or revisions to the Work with supplementary or revised Drawings and Specifications, if any,  and will request from Contractor a cost proposal and time adjustment proposal for completing the proposed changes. After the City issues a PCO, Contractor shall not submit a COR for the same Work addressed in the City’s PCO. 
  4. PCO Quotation Time Period: Contractor shall submit a PCO proposal for cost and/or time adjustment to the City within 10 Working Days after receipt of a PCO. If the City accepts the proposal in full, the City will issue a Final Change Order in accordance with Paragraph 6.04. If Contractor fails to submit a PCO cost proposal and/or time adjustment proposal within the 10-Working-Day period, or if the price or time adjustment cannot be agreed upon, the City may issue a Directive Change Order or a Unilateral Change Order instructing Contractor to proceed with the PCO Work based on the City’s estimate of the cost and/or time adjustment. 
  5. COR and PCO Cost Proposal Requirements: The cost proposal shall include a complete itemized breakdown of labor, material, equipment, and markup as described in Paragraph 6.06 for both additions and deletions on a form supplied by the City. The same shall be required for Subcontractor and Lower-Tier Subcontractor cost proposals, which shall be furnished on the same form as required for Contractor.
     
     At a minimum, Contractor shall provide the following documentation to the City in support of Contractor and Subcontractor cost proposals:
     1. Material quantities and type of products;
     2. Labor breakdown by trade classification, wage rates, and estimated hours;
     3. Equipment breakdown by make, type, size, rental rates, and equipment hours; and
     4. Taxes.
  6. COR and PCO Time Adjustment Proposal Requirements: If Contractor asserts it is entitled to an adjustment in Contract Time due to the proposed Change Order Work, whether by COR or PCO, Contractor shall provide the following documentation to the City in support of any Contractor and Subcontractor time adjustment proposals:
     1. Contractor shall submit to the City a CPM time impact evaluation using sub-network or fragmentary network and include a written narrative and a schedule diagram or other written documentation acceptable to the City, showing the detailed work activities involved in a change that may affect the Critical Path and increase the Contract Time. The analysis shall also show the impact of the change on other Work and activities of the proposed schedule adjustment. This sub-network shall be tied to the complete and most current City-accepted progress schedule network, with appropriate logic so that a true analysis of critical path can be made.
     2. Failure to comply with the requirements set forth in this subparagraph 6.03F shall constitute a waiver of any claim for delay, disruption, extended overhead, and other associated costs or damages.

  6.04 CHANGE ORDERS

  1. Execution of Change Orders: When the City and Contractor agree on the total cost and time of a COR or PCO, the City will prepare for signatures of parties a Final Change Order to implement the changed Work. No oral instructions of any person shall in any manner or degree modify or otherwise affect the terms of this Contract. Change Orders that result in an increase to the amount certified by the Controller for the Project are subject to the Certification by Controller requirements of the City’s Charter. Refer to Document 00 52 00 (Agreement).
  2. Release of Claims: The parties agree to make good faith efforts to settle all Change Orders full and final at the time of Change Order execution. Accordingly, City and Contractor acknowledge and agree that Final Change Orders shall contain the following provision, unless and only if the City determines that good cause exists to use different release language for a specific Change Order:
     
     “The compensation (time and cost) set forth in this Change Order comprises the total compensation due to Contractor, all Subcontractors and all Suppliers, for the Work or change defined in the Change Order, including impact on unchanged Work. By executing this Change Order, Contractor acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself, all Subcontractors, and all Suppliers, that the stipulated compensation includes payment for all Work contained in the Change Order, plus all payment for the interruption of schedules, extended field and home overhead costs (if any), delay, and all impact, ripple effect or cumulative impact on all other Work under this Contract. The execution of this Change Order indicates that the Change Order constitutes full mutual accord and satisfaction for the change, and that the time and/or cost under the Change Order constitutes the total equitable adjustment owed Contractor, all Subcontractors, and all Suppliers as a result of the change. Contractor, on behalf of itself, all Subcontractors, and all Suppliers, agrees to waive all rights, without exception or reservation of any kind whatsoever, to file any further claim related to this Change Order. No further claim or request for equitable adjustment of any type for any reasonably foreseeable cause shall arise out of or as a result of this Change Order or the impact of this Change Order on the remainder of the Work under this Contract.”
     
     
  3. When time does not allow for a Final Change Order to be negotiated, the City may issue a Directive Change Order instructing Contractor to proceed with a change in the Work based on the City’s estimate of cost and time to perform the change in the Work or upon Force Account with a not-to-exceed amount. Upon receipt of a Directive Change Order, Contractor shall proceed with the ordered Work.
  4. Protest: If Contractor disagrees with any terms or conditions set forth in a Directive Change Order and wishes to protest the Directive Change Order, Contractor shall submit, within five Working Days of receipt of the Directive Change Order, a complete COR in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 6.03 (including a complete cost and/or time adjustment proposal, as applicable). 
     1. The City will review the COR and issue a determination in accordance with Paragraph 6.03. If the City denies the COR in whole or in part, Contractor may contest the decision by filing a timely Notice of Potential Claim in accordance with Article 13 of these General Conditions.
     2. If a COR is not timely submitted as required, the City may issue a Unilateral Change Order.
  5. Change Orders issued under this Article 6 or extensions of Contract Time made necessary by reason thereof shall not in any way release any guarantees or warranties given by Contractor under the provisions of the Contract Documents, nor shall they relieve or release Contractor’s sureties of Bonds executed under such provisions. The sureties, in executing such Bonds, shall be deemed to have expressly agreed to any such Change Orders and to any extension of time made by reason thereof. Contractor shall be responsible for giving notice of any change affecting the Work, Contract Sum, or Contract Times that is required to be given to its sureties by the provisions of any bond.

  6.05 UNILATERAL CHANGE ORDERS

  1. General: When the City and Contractor are unable to agree on the cost or time required to complete the change in the Work, or Contractor has failed to protest any Directive Change Order, the City may issue a Unilateral Change Order instructing Contractor to proceed or continue with a change in the Work based on the City’s estimate of cost and time to perform the change in the Work and/or upon Force Account. Upon receipt of a Unilateral Change Order, Contractor shall execute the ordered Work.
  2. Protest: If Contractor disagrees with any terms or conditions set forth in a Unilateral Change Order and wishes to protest the Unilateral Change Order, Contractor may contest the decision by filing a timely Notice of Potential Claim in accordance with subparagraph 6.05C.
  3. Claim Notification: Contractor waives all costs exceeding the authorized amount stated in the Unilateral Change Order Work unless Contractor submits a written Notice of Potential Claim in accordance with the requirements of Article 13 of these General Conditions. Said Notice shall be submitted no later than 10 Working Days after occurrence of one of the following potential claim events, whichever occurs first:
     1. Contractor submits an invoice for completion of the Unilateral Change Order Work; or
     2. Upon Contractor’s receipt of written notice from the City that the City considers the Unilateral Change Order Work completed.

   6.06 COST OF CHANGE ORDER WORK 

  1. For Change Order Work and Change Order Work proposal pricing, Contractor will be paid the sum of the direct costs for labor, materials and equipment used in performing the Work as determined by the procedures set forth in this subparagraph 6.06A. 
     1. Labor. Contractor will be paid the cost of labor for the workers used in the actual and direct performance of the Change Order Work. Working foremen will be considered a direct cost of the Change Order Work only if the individual is on Site physically installing the Work. The costs for all supervision, including general superintendents, will not be considered a direct cost and shall be included in the markup defined in subparagraph 6.06B, below. All labor costs associated with Change Order Work-related revisions to construction engineering plans, shop drawings, detailing, and other submittals will be paid on actual costs, including overhead and profit. The cost of labor, whether the employer is Contractor, a Subcontractor, or other forces, will be the sum of the following: 
        1. Actual Wages. The actual wages paid shall include any actual payments by the employer for its workers’ health and welfare, pension, vacation, training, and similar purposes.
        2. Actual Labor Surcharge. The actual labor surcharge paid shall include any actual payment by the employer for its workers’ workers’ compensation insurance, City and County of San Francisco Payroll Expense Tax, Social Security, Medicare, subsistence and travel allowance paid to workers. No other fixed labor burdens will be considered, unless approved in writing by the City.
           1. To the actual wages, as defined above, will be added a labor surcharge as set forth in the version of the California Department of Transportation (CALTRANS) publication entitled Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates in effect on the date upon which the extra work is accomplished and which is incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. That labor surcharge shall constitute full compensation to Contractor for all of its costs for worker’s compensation insurance, City and County of San Francisco Payroll Expense Tax, Social Security, Medicare, federal unemployment insurance, state unemployment insurance, state training taxes and actual subsistence and travel allowance paid to workers. No other fixed labor burdens will be considered, unless approved in writing by the City.
           2. In lieu of using the Caltrans Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates, Contractor may request payment based on actual costs incurred, subject to review and approval of supporting documentation submitted to the City. 
     2. Materials: The City will pay Contractor on Change Orders only for those materials furnished by Contractor and directly required for performing the Change Order Work. The cost of such material shall be the direct cost to the purchaser, whether Contractor, Subcontractor or Lower-Tier Subcontractor, from the Supplier thereof and may include the cost of transportation, including sales tax, but delivery charges will not be allowed unless the delivery is specifically required for the Change Order Work. If a trade discount by an actual Supplier is available to Contractor, such discount shall be credited to the City notwithstanding the fact that such discount may not have been taken. If the materials are obtained from a Supplier or source owned wholly or in part by Contractor, payment thereof shall not exceed the current wholesale price for the materials as determined by the City. The term “trade discount” includes, but is not limited to, the concept of cash discounting.
     3. Equipment: Payment for equipment costs on Change Orders will be made at the rental rates listed for such equipment as specified in the current edition, at the time of the Change Order, of the Labor Surcharge & Equipment Rental Rate Book (including its supplement Miscellaneous Equipment Rental Rates) published by the California Department of Transportation and available for download at http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/construc/equipmnt.html.
        1. Such rental rates shall be adjusted as appropriate and will be used to compute payments for equipment, regardless of whether the equipment is under Contractor’s control through direct ownership, leasing, renting, or other method of acquisition; provided, however, for equipment rented or leased in arm’s length transactions with outside vendors, Contractor will be reimbursed at the actual rental or leased invoice rates when such rates are reasonably in line with the applicable rates specified in the publication identified above as determined by the City. Arm’s length rental or lease transactions are those in which the firm involved in the rental or lease of such equipment is not associated with, owned by, have common management, directorship, facilities, or stockholders with the firm renting the equipment. Contractor has the burden of proof to demonstrate that a rental or lease transaction was an arm’s length transaction. Contractor shall submit copies of all rental or lease invoices, and other information as requested by the City, if any, as supporting documentation with each PCO cost proposal.
        2. Daily, weekly, or monthly rates shall be used, whichever are lower. Hourly rates including operator shall not be used. Unless otherwise specified, manufacturer’s ratings and manufacturer-approved modifications shall be used to classify equipment for determination of applicable rental rates. If, however, equipment of unwarranted size or type and cost is used, the cost shall be calculated at the rental rate for equipment of proper size and type.
        3. The actual time to be paid for equipment shall be the time the equipment is in productive operation on the Work under the Change Order. No payment will be made for time while equipment is inoperative due to breakdown or for non-work days. In addition, the rental time shall not include the time required to move the equipment to and from the Site. Loading and transportation costs will be paid, in lieu of rental time, only if the equipment does not move under its own power and is utilized solely for the Work of the Change Order. No mobilization or demobilization will be allowed for equipment already on the Site. Equipment that is idle, non-operating or in standby mode shall be reimbursed at the CALTRANS rate, as adjusted by CALTRANS Delay Factor, unless such equipment is rented or leased as provided above.
        4. Equipment transportation costs includes the cost of vehicles used to transport large or heavy equipment that cannot be transported by on-site vehicles and could not reasonably have been expected to be needed in the performance of the base Contract Work. The actual time to be paid for any such transportation vehicles shall be the time of the round-trip travel to the Site related directly to delivery or pick up and loading or unloading of the large equipment. No payment will be made for time while the transportation vehicle is inoperative.
        5. Individual pieces of equipment having a replacement value of $1,000 or less shall be considered to be small tools or small equipment, and no payment will be made since the costs of these tools and equipment are included as part of Contractor’s markup for overhead and profit as defined in subparagraph 6.06B.

  2. Costs Included as Part of Construction Markup for Overhead and Profit: To the total of the direct costs computed as provided in subparagraph 6.06A there will be added a markup for overhead and profit and other costs as specified in subparagraph 6.06C. The markup shall constitute full compensation for all direct and indirect overhead costs and profit, which shall be deemed to include all items of expense not specifically listed in subparagraph 6.06A as direct costs. No separate allowance or itemization for overhead costs shall be allowed. The following is a list, not intended to be comprehensive, of the types of costs that are included in the markup for overhead and profit for all Change Orders including Force Account Work: 
     1. Field and home office personnel including, but not limited to, principals, project managers, superintendents, supervisory foremen, estimators, project engineers, schedulers, consultants, watchpersons, payroll clerks, administrative assistants, and secretaries.
     2. All field and home office expenses including, but not limited to, field trailers, staff vehicles and fuel, on-site vehicles used in the routine execution of the Work such as for the transport of workers and ordinary construction equipment, parking, storage sheds, office equipment and supplies, telephone service at the Site, long-distance telephone calls, fax machines, computers and software, internet and email services, temporary utilities, sanitary facilities and services, janitorial services, small tools and equipment with a cost under $1,000 each, portable scaffolding, blocking, shores, appliances, conformance to all regulatory requirements including compliance with safety regulations, safety programs and meetings, cartage, warranties, record documents, and all related maintenance costs.

     4. Bond and insurance costs.
     5. All other costs and taxes required to be paid, but not included under direct costs as defined in subparagraph 6.06A. 
  3. Contractor’s Construction Markup for Overhead and Profit: The following maximum percentage markups shall be applied to the total direct costs for each direct cost category. These markups provide for all indirect and overhead costs and profit.
     
     
     
     
     1. For Work performed by a Subcontractor or Supplier, Contractor shall receive a maximum 5% markup on the Subcontractor’s total cost (total cost includes Subcontractor’s direct costs plus applicable markups specified above). Such additional markup shall reimburse Contractor for all additional indirect, administrative and overhead costs associated with Change Order Work performed by the Subcontractor or Supplier.
     2. For Work performed by a Lower-Tier Subcontractor or Supplier, Contractor and Subcontractor shall each receive a 5% markup on the total cost of their respective Lower-Tier Subcontractors. Such additional markup shall reimburse Contractor and Subcontractor for all additional indirect, administrative and overhead costs associated with Change Order Work performed by the Lower Subcontractor or Supplier.
     3. In no case shall the sum of the individual markups specified in subparagraphs 6.06C(1) and 6.06C(2), above, exceed 25%, regardless of the number of Subcontractor tiers involved in performing the Change Order Work.
  4. For Work to be deleted by Change Order, the reduction of the Contract Sum shall be computed on the basis of one or more of the following: (i) Unit Prices stated in the Contract Documents; (ii) where Unit Prices are not applicable, a lump sum based upon the costs which would have been incurred in performing the deleted portions of the Work as calculated in accordance with Paragraph 6.06, supported by a Cost Proposal as required by Paragraph 6.03. Neither Contractor nor the Subcontractor shall receive a markup on their respective Lower-Tier Subcontractors to administer the credit Change Order. 
     1. When both additions and credits are involved in any one Change Order, Contractor’s markup shall be computed on the basis of its direct costs and labor productivity for the net change in the quantity of the Work. For example, if a Change Order adds 14 units on one Drawing and deletes 5 units on another Drawing, the markup shall be based on the net addition of 9 units. No markup will be allowed if the deductive cost exceeds the additive cost.
     2. If the City issues written notice of deletion of a portion of Work after the commencement of such Work or after Contractor has ordered acceptable materials for such Work which cannot be cancelled, or if part or all of such Work is not performed by Contractor because it is unnecessary due to actual Site conditions, payment will be made to Contractor for direct costs of such Work actually performed or acceptable materials ordered plus markup for overhead and profit as provided in subparagraph 6.06C.
     3. Materials ordered by Contractor and paid for by the City prior to the City’s issuance of a notice of deletion shall become the property of the City, and the City will pay for the actual cost of any further handling of such material. If the material is returnable to the vendor, and if the City so directs, the material shall be returned and Contractor will give the City a credit for the amount paid by the City for these materials less the actual charges made by the vendor for returning the material including restocking charges.
     4. Contractor shall not be compensated for costs incurred after receipt of the City’s written notice deleting the portion of Work.
  5. Costs Not Included in the Work: Contractor shall be solely responsible for determining which of its Subcontractors receive Change Orders. No additional compensation will be provided Contractor for the cost of its Subcontractors to review, post, coordinate, and perform related tasks to administer Change Orders which do not result in direct cost charges from such Subcontractors. Such costs shall be considered normal business costs, which are contractually determined between Contractor and its Subcontractors prior to Bid, and such costs shall be included in Contractor’s Total Bid Price. 
  6. Records: Contractor shall maintain its records in such a manner as to provide a clear distinction between the direct costs of Change Orders and the cost of original Contract Work. This requirement pertains to all types of Change Orders, as well as the additions, deletions, revisions, CORs, and Claims initiated by Contractor.

  6.07 FORCE ACCOUNT WORK 

  1. General: When additions or revisions in the Work are to be paid for on a Force Account basis, all direct costs itemized in subparagraph 6.06A shall be subject to the approval of the City and compensation will be determined as set forth herein. 
     1. The City will direct Contractor to proceed with the Work on a Force Account basis, and the City will establish a “not to exceed” budget. 
     2. All requirements regarding direct costs and markup for overhead and profit provided in subparagraph 6.06B shall apply to Force Account Work. However, the City will pay only the actual necessary costs verified in the field by the City on a daily basis. 
     3. Contractor shall be responsible for all costs related to the documentation, data preparation, and administration of Force Account Work. Compensation for such costs shall be fully covered by the markup for overhead and profit markup as provided in subparagraph 6.06C. 
  2. Notification and Verification: Contractor shall notify the City in writing at least 24 hours in advance of its schedule before proceeding with the Force Account Work. All Force Account Work shall be witnessed, documented, and approved in writing by the City on the day that the Work is performed. Contractor will not be compensated for Force Account Work if Contractor fails to provide timely notice to the City before commencing the Force Account Work. In addition, Contractor shall notify the City when the cumulative costs incurred by Contractor for the Force Account Work equal 80% of the budget pre-established by the City. Contractor will not be compensated for Force Account Work exceeding the “not to exceed” budget amount if Contractor fails to provide the required notice before exceeding 80% of the Force Account budget. 
  3. Reports: 
     1. Contractor shall diligently proceed with the approved Force Account Work and shall submit to the City no later than 12:00 PM of the day following performance of Force Account Work a daily Force Account Work report. The report shall provide an itemized, detailed account of the daily Force Account labor, material, and equipment, including names of the individuals and the specific pieces of equipment identified by manufacturer’s model type and serial number. Contractor’s authorized representative shall complete and sign the report. Contractor will not be compensated for Force Account Work for which said timely report is not completed and submitted to the City.
     2. Contractor shall also provide a weekly Force Account summary of the daily Force Account Work reports for that week. The Force Account summary shall include the percent of any Force Account allowance used and the estimated percentage complete of the anticipated Force Account Work.
  4. Records: Contractor shall maintain detailed records of all Work done on a Force Account basis. 
  5. Agreement: If Contractor and the City reach a negotiated, signed agreement on the cost of a Change Order while the Work is proceeding on a Force Account basis, Contractor’s signed written reports shall be discontinued and all previously signed reports shall become invalid.

  6.08 UNIT PRICE WORK 

  1. General: Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially the Contract Sum will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the product of the established unit price bid for each Item of Unit Price Work multiplied by the estimated quantity of each Item as indicated in the Schedule of Bid Prices. The estimated quantities of unit price Items are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparing Bids and determining an initial Contract Total Bid Price. Determination of the actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work will be made in accordance with Division 01, and the Contract Sum will be adjusted based on the actual quantities of Work performed. 
     Each unit price on the Schedule of Bid Prices shall include an amount considered by Contractor to cover Contractor’s markup for overhead and profit as defined in Paragraph 6.06. 
  2. Quantity Increases: Should the total quantity of any Item of Unit Price Work performed exceed the estimated quantity indicated on the Schedule of Bid Prices by more than 125%, the Work in excess of 125% of such estimated quantity will be paid for by adjusting the unit price bid therefor as follows: 
     1. The unit price will be adjusted by the difference between the unit price bid for the Item and the actual unit cost, determined as follows, of the total quantity of Work performed under said Item. The actual unit cost will be determined based on the direct costs per unit less fixed costs, which will be deemed to have been recovered by Contractor with the payments made for 125% of the quantity indicated on the Schedule of Bid Prices, and markup for overhead and profit as provided in Paragraph 6.06. 
     2. When the compensation payable for the number of units of an Item of Unit Price Work performed in excess of 125% of the quantity as indicated on the Schedule of Bid Price is less than $5,000 at the unit price bid therefor, the City reserves the right to make no adjustment in said unit price if the City so elects, except that an adjustment will be made if Contractor submits a COR in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 6.03. 
     3. At the City’s option, payment for Unit Price Work in such excess will be made on a Force Account basis as provided in Paragraph 6.07 in lieu of adjusting the unit price in accordance with subparagraphs 6.08B(1) or 6.08B(2). 
  3. Quantity Decreases: Should the total quantity of any Item of Unit Price Work performed be less than 75% of the estimated quantity indicated on the Schedule of Bid Prices, an adjustment in compensation will not be made unless Contractor submits a COR in accordance with Paragraph 6.03. If Contractor so requests, the quantity of said Item performed will be paid for by adjusting the unit price bid therefor as follows: 
     1. The unit price will be adjusted by the difference between the unit price bid for the Item and the actual unit cost, determined based on the direct costs per unit, including fixed costs described under subparagraph 6.08B(1), and markup for overhead and profit as provided in Paragraph 6.06, of the total quantity of Work performed under said Item, provided however, that in no case shall the payment for such Work be less than that which would be made at the unit price bid therefor. 
     2. The payment for the total pay quantity of such Item of Unit Price Work will in no case exceed the payment which would be made for the performance of 75% of the estimated quantity as indicated on the Schedule of Bid Prices at the unit price bid therefor. 
     3. At the City’s option, payment for the Work involved in such deficiency will be made on a Force Account basis as provided in Paragraph 6.07 in lieu of adjusting the unit price in accordance with subparagraphs 6.08C(1) and 6.08C(2).

  O. Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA): an evaluation of the environmental effects of a product from cradle to grave, as defined by ISO 14040–2006 and ISO 14044–2006.

  P. Persistent Bioaccumulative Toxic (PBT) Chemical: Substance that poses a long-term risk to both humans and the environment because it persists in the environment for long periods, bioaccumulates up the food chain, and can travel far from the source of contamination.

  Q. Product: “Product” as used herein may mean product, equipment, or system. A product is an item that arrives on the project site either as a finished element ready for installation or as a component to another item assembled on-site. The product unit is defined by the functional requirement for use in the project; this includes the physical components and services needed to serve the intended function of the permanently installed building product. If there are similar products within a specification, each contributes as a separate product.

  R. Recycled Content: Envision defines recycled content in accordance with ISO 14021 as the portion of materials used in a product that have been diverted from the solid waste stream and used in part or whole in place of a new primary material. Material eligible for consideration can also be defined as pre-existing material on site, or from another site, that was previously a product or piece of equipment that is now being repurposed or reused.

  For Envision projects, calculations of recycled materials can be done by weight, volume, or cost, but must remain consistent within the credit. Calculations should compare the total quantity of recycled materials and reused structures with the total quantity of materials on the project. Products that contain a percentage of recycled material should be factored according to the percentage of material that is recycled.

  If Project is also pursuing LEED certification, refer to specification section 01 35 12, Sustainable Project Requirements for LEED Projects for LEED’s recycled content definition and requirements.

  S. Refurbished: Post-consumer material, restored by substantial repair to like-new status, and reused.

  T. Regional Materials: Materials that have been extracted, harvested, or recovered, as well as manufactured within 100 miles from the Project site.

  U. Reused: Post-consumer material used a second time without refurbishment.

  V. Salvaged: Material recovered from the demolition of another structure.

  W. SMACNA: Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association. An international trade association which publishes standards addressing all aspects of the sheet metal industry, from duct construction/installation to indoor air quality, energy recovery, and roofing.

  X. Solar Reflectance Index (SRI): The measure of a constructed surface's ability to stay cool in the sun by reflecting solar radiation and emitting thermal radiation. SRI values range from zero (solid black surface) to 100 (solid white surface). SRI value of a material is calculated according to ASTM E1980 and based on the aged tested values of solar reflectance and thermal emittance.

  7.02 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME 

  1. Unavoidable Delays: Pursuant to San Francisco Administrative Code Section 6.22(h)(2)(C), and for the purposes of the Contract Documents, the term Unavoidable Delay shall mean an interruption of the Work beyond the control of Contractor that could not have been avoided by Contractor’s exercising care, prudence, foresight, and diligence. Moreover, in accordance with the progress schedule requirements of Paragraph 3.09, Contractor shall demonstrate that the Unavoidable Delay actually extends the most current Contract Substantial Completion date. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor (i.e., Avoidable Delays). 
     1. Non-compensable Delay/Time Extension. Contractor will be entitled to only a non-compensable time extension for the following types of Unavoidable Delay: Acts of God (as used herein, includes only earthquakes in excess of a magnitude 3.5 on the Richter Scale and tidal waves); acts of the public enemy; adverse weather conditions (in excess of the number of days specified in subparagraph 7.02C or the Supplementary Conditions); fires; floods; windstorms; tornadoes; wars; riots; insurrections; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; strikes; lockouts; sit-downs; slowdowns; other labor trouble; labor shortages; inability of Contractor to procure labor; Material shortages; inability of Contractor to procure Material; fuel shortages; freight embargoes; acts of a government agency; priorities or privileges established for the manufacture, assembly or allotment of Materials by order, decree, or otherwise of the United States or by any department, bureau, commission, committee, agent or administrator of any legally constituted public authority; changes in the Work ordered by the City insofar as they necessarily require additional time in which to complete the Project; the prevention by the City of Contractor from commencing or prosecuting the Work; the prevention of Contractor from commencing or prosecuting the Work because of the acts of others, excepting Contractor’s Subcontractors and Suppliers of all tiers; the prevention of Contractor from commencing or prosecuting the Work because of failure of the City to furnish the necessary Materials, when required by the Contract Documents and when requested by Contractor in the manner provided in the Contract Documents; and inability to procure or failure of public utility service. 
        1. Whenever Contractor has knowledge that any actual or potential labor dispute is delaying or is threatening to delay the timely performance of its Contract, Contractor shall immediately give written notice thereof, including all relevant information with respect thereto, to the City.
        2. In addition, Contractor shall take all appropriate measures to eliminate or minimize the effect of such labor dispute on the current, City-approved progress schedule, including but not limited to such measures as: promptly seeking appropriate injunctive relief; filing appropriate charges with the National Labor Relations Board under the applicable provisions of the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947, as amended; filing appropriate damage actions; taking such measures as establishing a reserved gate, as appropriate; if reasonably feasible, seeking other sources of supply or service; or any other measures that may be appropriately utilized as deemed by the City to limit or eliminate the effect of the labor dispute on the Work. To the extent Contractor fails to initiate appropriate measures, it is not entitled to an extension of Contract Time. In addition, any delay impact caused by said failure on the progress schedule will be considered a Contractor-caused delay under any and all applicable provisions of the Contract Documents.
     2. Compensable Delay/Time Extension. Contractor shall be entitled to a compensable time extension for an Unavoidable Delay caused solely by (i) the failure of the City to furnish necessary rights-of-way in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Contract Documents; (ii) failure by the City to deliver Materials or equipment shown in the Contract Documents to be furnished by the City in accordance with the schedule specified in the Contract Documents where such failure is not the result of any default or misconduct of Contractor; (iii) the failure of the City to perform some other contract obligation where such failure is not the result of any default or misconduct of Contractor; (iv) the suspension of the Work by the City for its own convenience or benefit where such decision is not the result of any default or misconduct of Contractor; or (v) a materially Differing Site Condition per Paragraph 3.03, provided such City-caused Unavoidable Delay is critical, extends the most current Contract Substantial Completion date, and is not concurrent with a Contractor-caused delay (Avoidable Delay) or other type of Unavoidable Delay as previously defined (not caused by the City). If for any reason one or more of the conditions prescribed above is held legally unenforceable, the remaining conditions must be met as a condition to obtaining a compensable time extension. All other types of Unavoidable Delay shall not entitle Contractor to a compensable time extension. Refer to Paragraph 7.03 for more information regarding compensable delay.
        1. Float or slack time within the Baseline Schedule belongs to the Project and is an expiring resource available to the City or Contractor as needed to meet Milestones or complete the Work within the Contract Time. Accordingly, Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any City-caused delays on the Project may be offset by City-caused time savings (including, but not limited to, the return of Critical Path submittals is less time than allowed under the Contract Documents, approval of substitution or value engineering requests which result in savings of time along the Critical Path). In such event Contractor shall not be entitled to receive a compensable time extension until all City-caused time savings are exceeded and the Contract Time is also exceeded.
        2. Early Completion Schedule: If Contractor submits a Baseline Schedule that shows a completion time that is earlier than the Contract Time, the float shall belong to the Project. Contractor shall not be entitled to a compensable time extension for any Change Order, Unilateral Change Order, or City-caused delay that causes the early completion date to be extended within the float.
     3. Concurrent Delay. Contractor shall be entitled to a non-compensable time extension in the event that a City-caused (otherwise compensable) delay is concurrent with either a Contractor-caused delay or a non-compensable Unavoidable Delay.
  2. Avoidable Delays: The term Avoidable Delay shall include, but is not limited to, the following: 
     1. Any delay which could have been avoided by the exercise of care, prudence, foresight and diligence on the part of Contractor or its Subcontractors or Suppliers of any tier; or
     2. Any delay in the prosecution of parts of the Work, which may in itself be Unavoidable, but which does not necessarily prevent or delay the prosecution of other parts of the Work, nor delay the date of Substantial Completion based on the specified limits of Contract Time; or 
     3. Any delay caused by the untimely review by Contractor of the Drawings and Specifications pursuant to subparagraph 3.01C; or 
     4. Any delay resulting from the City responding to Contractor-generated RFIs in accordance with subparagraph 6.02B; or 
     5. Any delay arising from an interruption in the prosecution of the Work resulting from a reasonable interference from other contractors employed by the City but does not delay the date of Substantial Completion based on the specified limit of Contract Time. 
     6. Contractor shall not be entitled to, and hereby conclusively waives, any right to recovery of compensation, costs or damages for delay, disruptions, hindrances or interferences (including without limitation interruption of schedules, extended, excess of extraordinary field and indirect overhead costs, loss of productivity and the impact, ripple or cumulative effect on other Work) that are the result of an Avoidable Delay.
  3. Adverse Weather Delays: 
     1. Adverse weather shall not be a prima facie reason for the granting of a non-compensable time extension, and Contractor shall make every effort to continue Work under prevailing conditions. Such efforts by Contractor shall include, but are not limited to, providing temporary gravel roads; installing a rain dewatering system; protecting interior and exterior areas exposed to rain, wind, and extreme temperatures; and providing temporary heat where required for Work to proceed without delay. 
     2. The City may classify an adverse weather day as a non-compensable Unavoidable Delay, provided Contractor made efforts to work during adverse weather and to avoid the impacts of adverse weather to its schedule. If such an event occurs, and Contractor is prevented by adverse weather or conditions from proceeding with at least 75% of the scheduled labor, material, and equipment resources for at least five hours per work day on activities shown as critical on the most current and City-approved progress schedule update, the delay will be classified as an Unavoidable Delay, and Contractor will be granted a non-compensable time extension. 
     3. Regardless of the type and severity of the adverse weather, Contractor shall be responsible for all costs of its efforts to mitigate the impacts of adverse weather to its schedule during the Contract Time. 
     4. Adverse weather shall mean rain, windstorm, flood, or other natural phenomenon occurring at the Site which exceed the anticipated number of days of inclement weather as provided herein and which are proven by Contractor to be detrimental to the progress of the Work. Contractor shall plan the Work to allow for the following number of days of inclement weather during Regular Working Hours:
        
        
        
        
        1. Contractor’s progress schedule shall incorporate prudent allowance for the anticipated number of days of inclement weather specified herein.
        2. The Contract Time allowed for completion of Work specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) is predicated on the anticipated number of days of inclement weather specified herein.
        3. Contractor shall not be entitled to receive a time extension related to weather until the anticipated number of days specified herein for the month of occurrence of the inclement weather event has been exceeded.
        4. In the event that there are months with less than the anticipated number of inclement weather days specified herein, the City reserves the right to transfer the unused inclement weather days to other months of the Contract Time for which Contractor has requested a time extension because of adverse weather.
        5. In the event that there is a month with more than the anticipated number of inclement weather days specified herein, and Contractor has requested a time extension because of adverse weather, the City reserves the right to transfer unused inclement weather days from other months of the Contract Time to the month in question. Contractor shall not be entitled to receive a time extension related to weather until the anticipated number of days specified herein for the month of occurrence of the inclement weather event, plus any inclement weather days transferred by the City from other months of the Contract Time, has been exceeded. 
  4. Notice of Delay: 
     1. Pursuant to San Francisco Administrative Code Section 6.22(h)(2)(D), Contractor shall notify the City in writing promptly of all anticipated delays in the prosecution of the Work and, in any event, promptly upon the occurrence of a delay. The City may take steps to prevent the occurrence or continuance of the delay, and the City may determine to what extent Substantial Completion is delayed thereby. 
     2. Said notice shall constitute an application for an extension of time and payment for a compensable time extension, if applicable, only if the notice requests such time extension, specifies whether Contractor believes the time extension is compensable or non-compensable, sets forth Contractor’s estimate of the additional time required together with a full recital of the causes of Unavoidable Delays relied upon, and meets all requirements for a Notice of Potential Claim as set forth in Article 13 of these General Conditions, including the requirement that such Notice be submitted to the City within seven days of the event which Contractor contends affected the performance of the Work. 
     3. The City’s determination of whether an extension of time will be granted and whether the extension is compensable or non-compensable will be based on Contractor’s demonstration to the City’s satisfaction that such Unavoidable Delays will extend Contractor’s current Critical Path on the current, City-approved updated progress schedule or require the formulation of a new extended Critical Path.
     4. If Contractor does not submit a notice as set forth in subparagraph 7.02D(2), Contractor thereby admits the occurrence had no effect on the length of its duration of Work and no extension of time is necessary, and Contractor understands and agrees that no extension of time or adjustment of the Contract Sum will be granted by the City.
  5. Extensions of Time: 
     1. In the event it is deemed necessary by the City to extend the time for completion of the Work to be performed under these Contract Documents beyond the specified limits of Contract Time specified in the Contract Documents, such extensions shall in no way release any guarantees or warranties given by Contractor pursuant to the provisions of the Contract Documents, nor shall such extension of time relieve or release the sureties on the Bonds executed pursuant to said provision. 
     2. The sureties in executing such Bonds shall be deemed to have expressly agreed to any such extension of time. 
     3. The length of any extension of time shall be limited to the extent that the commencement, prosecution, and completion of the Work are delayed by the event as determined by the City in accordance with San Francisco Administrative Code Section 6.22(h)(2)(D).
     4. Adjustments to the Contract Sum for compensable time extensions shall be in accordance with Paragraph 7.03.
     5. Extensions of time that cumulatively extend the Contract Time in excess of 10% of the original Contract duration as specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) shall be subject to the approval of the Airport Commission (or the Commission’s designee), as appropriate. 
     6. In no event shall such extensions of time be granted subsequent to the date of Final Completion. 
     7. Granting of an extension of time because of Unavoidable Delays shall in no way operate as a waiver on the part of the City of the right to collect liquidated damages for other delays or to collect other damages or to pursue other rights and interests which the City is entitled. 
     8. Should Contractor, any Subcontractor of any tier, or any Supplier of any tier, seek an extension of time for the completion of the Work under the provisions of this Paragraph 7.02, Contractor and its Subcontractor or Supplier shall submit justification for the extension of the time requested and otherwise comply with all provisions of these Contract Documents with respect to requests for extensions of time. 
     9. Neither this provision, nor any other provision of the Contract Documents, are intended by the parties to be contrary to any express provision of law. The parties specifically agree, acknowledge, and warrant that neither this provision nor any other provision of the Contract Documents has for its object, directly or indirectly, the exemption of the City, the City Representative, the City’s consultants, and their respective directors, officers, members, employees, and authorized representatives from responsibility of their own sole negligence, violation of law, or other willful injury to the person or property of another. 
         
        

  7.03 ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONTRACT SUM FOR COMPENSABLE DELAY/COMPENSABLE TIME EXTENSION

  1. The Contract Sum will be adjusted for a compensable delay as specified in this Paragraph 7.03 if, and only if, Contractor demonstrates that it is entitled to a compensable time extension per subparagraph 7.02A(2) and timely complies with the Notice of Delay requirements of these General Conditions. 
  2. The provisions of this Paragraph 7.03 and subparagraph 7.02A(2) do not apply to Change Order Work paid under Paragraph 6.06 or Paragraph 6.08, or to Force Account Work performed under Paragraph 6.07. Contractor’s right to recovery of compensation, costs, expenses and damages for delay, disruption, hindrance, and interference (including without limitation interruption of schedules, extended, excess or extraordinary field and home office overhead costs, loss of productivity and the impact, ripple or cumulative effect on other Work) that are the result of extras, changes, additions or deletions in the Work shall be limited to the adjustment of the Contract Sum (including without limitation the mark-ups specified) as set forth in Paragraph 6.06 or Paragraph 6.08. Those Paragraphs include markups to cover field and home office overhead costs. Overhead claims in excess of the markups specified are not allowed for Change Order Work, Force Account Work, or Unit Price Work. The Contract Sum adjustment provisions set forth in Paragraph 6.06 and Paragraph 6.08 constitute the sole, exclusive, and complete compensation that the City is obligated to pay Contractor for all costs, expenses, and damages incurred by Contractor and its Subcontractors and Suppliers of all tiers associated with Change Order Work, Force Account Work, or Unit Price Work. 
  3. Field Office Overhead – Daily Rate. If Contractor meets the conditions for a compensable time extension specified in this subparagraph 7.03C, then the City shall pay Contractor such amount as the City may find to be fair and reasonable compensation for such part of Contractor’s actual loss that was unavoidable. Fair and reasonable compensation shall be calculated as follows:
     1. Within the time and in the format specified by the City, Contractor shall submit a detailed listing of daily field office overhead cost components which are time related. The individual cost components shall represent costs which have been or will be incurred or increased as a sole or direct result of the compensable time extension. This listing may include without limitation onsite project management, supervision, engineering, and clerical salaries; onsite office utilities and rent; onsite company vehicles and their operating expenses; site maintenance, safety and security expenses. 
     2. The listing of the daily field office overhead cost components described above must be based on Contractor’s actual field office overhead costs. This listing must be submitted with the first Notice of Delay that includes a request for a compensable time extension. If Contractor’s time-related daily field office overhead cost changes for subsequent compensable delays, then Contractor shall submit a new overhead rate based on Contractor’s overhead costs at the time of the subsequent delay.
     3. The daily field office overhead rate shall be multiplied by the number of days the Contract is to be extended. No markup for overhead and profit shall be allowed on the extended daily field office overhead cost. 
     4. The information submitted as required above shall be submitted in sufficient detail to allow review and shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The City shall have the right to audit Contractor’s costs under Paragraph 2.06.
  4. Extended Home Office Overhead. Absent extraordinary circumstances, extended home office overhead is not allowable. Extended home office overhead and its application to a compensable time extension will not be allowed unless Contractor demonstrates to the satisfaction of the City that each and every of the following conditions apply to the delay period: (i) the delay was caused by the City and meets the conditions of subparagraph 7.02A(2); (ii) such City-caused delay was of an indefinite (unknown) duration; (iii) the City-caused delay suspended most, if not all, Work; (iv) the City-caused delay resulted in a substantial disruption or decrease in the income stream from the Project; (v) during the City-caused delay, Contractor was required to remain ready to resume Work immediately; and (vi) Contractor was unable to secure comparable replacement work due solely to the said delay from this Project during the impacted period to replace the reduced cash flow from this Project. If Contractor believes that it may be entitled to extended home office overhead, it must notify the City through the Notice of Delay process specified in subparagraph 7.02D. Within the time and in the format specified by the City, Contractor shall submit detailed evidence of entitlement and the requested rate, including all supporting evidence from which the City may make a determination (including an audit by a California-licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA) if the City so requests). Supporting evidence shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the City shall have the right to audit Contractor’s submittal under Paragraph 2.06. If the City determines that extended home office overhead is available, then the City shall have the discretion to determine the methodology for calculation of the rate.
  5. E. Credit for Change Order and Force Account Markups. In order to avoid double payment of overhead and if Contractor timely requests additional compensation for a compensable delay in accordance with the Contract, and the City determines Contractor entitlement to additional compensation for such delay, then the City will adjust the amount payable to Contractor for the compensable delay by deducting a fair and reasonable credit to account for additional overhead paid to Contractor under the markups specified in Paragraph 6.06 for Change Order Work and Force Account Work, including markups from changes performed and paid under Bid Items (i.e. unit priced and contingency allowance Bid Items). The baseline credit amount will be 5% of the value of all Change Order Work and Force Account Work performed by Contractor under the Contract during the compensable delay period (but excluding any future Change Order Work and Force Account Work). If the City seeks a credit in excess of 5%, then the City will provide Contractor with supporting documentation. Such supporting documentation may include, at the City’s discretion, the results of an audit or examination of documents performed under Paragraph 2.06. If Contractor seeks either a credit of less than 5% or objects to the credit amount proposed by the City, then Contractor shall timely provide the City with supporting documentation. Such supporting documentation shall include the results of an audit performed by a CPA at Contractor’s cost if so requested by the City. 
     
     

  7.04 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

  1. Determination of Damages:
     1. The actual fact of the occurrence of damages and the actual amount of the damages which the City would suffer if the Work were not completed within the specified limits of Contract Time are dependent upon many circumstances and conditions which could prevail in various combinations and, from the nature of the case, it is impracticable and extremely difficult to fix the actual damages. 
     2. Damages which the City would suffer in the event of delay include, but are not limited to, costs of renting equivalent space, impact on adjacent use and operations, expenses of prolonged employment of an architectural, engineering and construction management staff comprised of both City Representatives and consultants; costs of administration, inspection and supervision; and the loss suffered by the public within the City and County of San Francisco by reasons of the delay in the construction of the Project to serve the public at the earliest possible time. 
  2. B. Agreed Amount of Damages: It is understood and agreed by Contractor and City that if all the Work specified or indicated in the Contract Documents is not completed within the specified limits of Contract Time, or within such time limits as extended in accordance with Paragraph 7.02, actual damages will be sustained by the City in the event of and by reason of such delay.
     1. Contractor and City agree that the amount of liquidated damages set forth in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) represents the Parties’ reasonable estimate of the approximate damages which the City will sustain for each and every day of delay beyond the number of days specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) for Substantial Completion, as such date may be modified in accordance with the Contract Documents.
     2. Contractor and City agree that the amount of liquidated damages set forth in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) represents the Parties’ reasonable estimate of the approximate damages which the City will sustain for each and every day of delay beyond the number of days specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) for completing the punch list of remedial Work and achieving Final Completion, as such date may be modified in accordance with the Contract Documents.
     3. Contractor and City agree that the amount of liquidated damages set forth in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) represents the Parties’ reasonable estimate of the approximate damages which the City will sustain for each and every day (or other measure) of delay beyond the number of days (or other measure) specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) for completing the specified critical, independent Milestone Work (e.g., shutdown Work), if any, as such date may be modified in accordance with the Contract Documents.
     4. It is therefore agreed that Contractor shall pay such amount of liquidated damages as specified in Document 00 54 39 (Contract Time and Liquidated Damages) and, in case such amount is not paid, Contractor agrees that the City may deduct the amount therefor from any money due or that may become due Contractor under the Contract.
  3. Payment of Damages:
     1. Should Contractor become liable for liquidated damages, the City, in addition to all other remedies provided by law, shall have the right to withhold any and all retained percentages of payments as provided in Paragraph 9.06 which would otherwise be due or become due Contractor until the liability of Contractor has finally been determined.
     2. The City shall have the right to use and apply such retained percentages, in whole or in part, to reimburse the City for all liquidated damages due or to become due to the City. Any remaining balance of such retained percentages shall be paid to Contractor only after discharge in full of all liability incurred by Contractor.
     3. If the retained percentage is not sufficient to discharge all such liabilities of Contractor, Contractor and its sureties shall continue to remain liable to the City until all such liabilities are satisfied in full.
     4. Should the retention of moneys due or to become due to Contractor be insufficient to cover such damages, Contractor shall pay forthwith the remainder to the City.
• HAZARDOUS MATERIALS REPORTS —
  1. The Airport’s environmental consultant has surveyed the facility for the presence of various hazardous materials. Materials investigated may include asbestos, lead, PCB ballasts, mercury containing lamps, contaminated soils, underground storage tanks, other hazardous materials. The survey findings are documented in the following:
     1. N/A
  2. The City has contracted for hazardous materials abatement at the Site. The abatement oversight information for this work is documented in the following:
     1. N/A
  3. Hazardous materials surveys and reports were obtained only for the use of the City and its consultants for planning and design. Such documentation is not part of the Contract Documents, but the technical data contained in the referenced reports on which Bidder is entitled to rely are incorporated in the Contract Documents by reference.
• SCHEDULE REVISIONS —
  1. • 1. Updating the schedule to reflect actual progress shall not be considered revisions to the schedule. Since scheduling is a dynamic process, revisions to activity durations and sequences are expected on a monthly basis.
       2. To reflect revisions to the schedule, Contractor shall provide the Airport with a written narrative with a full description and reasons for each Work activity revised. For revisions affecting the sequence of Work, Contractor shall provide a schedule diagram, which compares the original sequence to the revised sequence of Work. Contractor shall provide the written narrative and schedule diagram for revisions two Working Days in advance of the monthly schedule update meeting.
       3. Schedule revisions shall not be incorporated into any schedule update until the Airport has reviewed the revisions. The Airport may request further information and justification for schedule revisions and Contractor shall, within three Working Days, provide the Airport with a complete written narrative response to the Airport’s request.
       4. If the Airport does still not accept Contractor’s revision, and Contractor disagrees with Airport’s position, Contractor has seven days from receipt of the Airport’s letter rejecting the revision to provide a written narrative providing full justification and explanation for the revision. Contractor’s failure to respond in writing within seven days of the Airport’s written rejection of a schedule revision shall be contractually interpreted as acceptance of the Airport’s position, and Contractor waives its rights to subsequently dispute or file a claim regarding the Airport’s position.
       5. At the Airport’s discretion, Contractor can be required to provide Subcontractor certifications of performance regarding proposed schedule revisions affecting said Subcontractors.
• PROGRESS PAYMENTS  —
  1. If requested by Contractor, progress payments will be made pursuant to Paragraph 9.03 of the General Conditions.
  2. Schedule of Values
     1. For lump sum Work, Contractor shall submit a schedule of values pursuant to Paragraph 9.02 of the General Conditions.
     2. Contractor’s overhead, profit, insurance, cost of bonds and/or financing, as well as “general conditions costs” (e.g., site cleanup and maintenance, temporary roads and access, off-site access roads, temporary power and lighting, security and the like), shall be prorated through all activities so that the sum of all the schedule of values line items equal Contractor’s total Contract Sum less any Allowances designated by the City Representative.
     3. The City Representative will review the breakdown in conjunction with the progress schedule to ensure that the dollar amounts reflected in the schedule of values are, in fact, fair market cost allocations for the Work Items listed. Upon favorable review, this schedule of values will be accepted for use by the City Representative. The Airport and the City Representative shall be the sole judges of fair market cost allocations.
     4. Any attempt to increase the cost of early activities (i.e., “front loading”) will be rejected by the Airport resulting in a complete reallocation of monies until such “front loading” is corrected. Repeated attempts at “front loading” may result in suspension or termination of the Work or refusal to process progress payments, until such time as the schedule of values is acceptable to the Airport.
  3. Payment Requests
     1. On or before the 25th day of each month, Contractor shall submit to the City Representative one electronic copy of a payment request for the cost of the Work put in place during the previous one-month period, defined as the 16th day of the previous month through the 15th day of the current month. Such requests for progress payments shall be based upon schedule of values prices of all labor and materials incorporated in the Work up until midnight of the last day of that one-month period, less the aggregate of previous payments. If Contractor is late in submitting its payment request, that payment request may be processed after all other prime contractors’ payment requests are processed, resulting in processing of Contractor’s payment request being delayed for more than a day-for-day basis.
     2. Payment requests may include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:
        1. Material, equipment, and labor incorporated into the Work, less any previous payments for the same.
        2. Up to 75% of the cost of major equipment identified in Paragraph 1.04B above, if purchased and delivered to the Site or stored off-site, as may be approved by the City Representative.
        3. Up to 50% of the cost of materials identified in Paragraph 1.04B above, specifically fabricated for the Project that are not yet incorporated into the Work.
     3. Contractor shall, at the time any payment request is submitted, provide an original request, certify in writing the accuracy of the payment request and that Contractor has fulfilled all scheduling requirements of Document 01 33 00 (Submittals) and Document 01 32 00 (Work Schedules and Reports), including updates and revisions. The certification shall be executed by a responsible officer of Contractor.
     4. No progress payment will be processed prior to the City Representative receiving all requested, acceptable schedule update information, updated as-built drawings, and required Prevailing Wage documents.
     5. Each payment request shall list each Change Order executed prior to date of submission, including the Change Order number, and a description of the Work activities, consistent with the descriptions of original Work activities. Contractor shall also submit a monthly Change Order status log to the City Representative.
     6. If the City Representative requires substantiating data, Contractor shall submit information requested by the City Representative, with cover letter identifying the Project, payment request number and date, and a detailed list of enclosures. Contractor shall submit one copy of substantiating data and cover letter for each copy of payment request submitted.
     7. Monthly progress payments shall be made based on total value of activities completed or partially completed, as determined by the Airport with participation of Contractor, and based upon approved activity costs. Accumulated retention will be shown as a separate item in the payment summary. If Contractor fails or refuses to participate in construction progress evaluation with the Airport, Contractor shall not receive current payment until Contractor has participated fully in providing construction progress information and schedule update information to the Airport.
  4. Progress Payments
     1. Upon receiving Contractor’s payment request, the Airport will review Contractor’s payment request and make necessary adjustments to percent of completion of each activity. One copy will be returned to Contractor with description of adjustments made. All parties will update percentage of completion values in the same manner (i.e. express value of an accumulated percentage of completion to date).
     2. The payment request may be reviewed by the City Representative, Architect/Engineer and/or Inspectors, for the purpose of determining that the payment request is a proper payment request, and shall be rejected, revised, or approved by the City Representative pursuant to the cost breakdown prepared in accordance with Paragraph 1.06B above.
     3. If it is determined that the payment request is not a proper payment request suitable or payment, the City Representative shall return it to Contractor as soon as practicable.
     4. As soon as practicable after approval of each request for progress payment, the Airport will pay to Contractor in the manner provided by law and subject to the retention, authorization, and withholding provisions of Paragraphs 9.04 through 9.06 (inclusive) of the General Conditions.
     5. Upon receipt of any progress payment, Contractor shall complete Form 9: CMD Payment Affidavit, and submit the completed form to the Airport within 10 days following payment to Contractor of monies owed for Work completed on the Project. Before any progress payment or final payment is made, Contractor may be required to submit satisfactory evidence that Contractor is not delinquent in payments to employees, Subcontractors, Suppliers, or creditors for labor and materials incorporated into Work.
     6. The Airport reserves and shall have the right to withhold payment for any equipment and/or specifically fabricated materials that, in the sole judgment of the City Representative, is not adequately and properly protected against weather and/or damage, prior to incorporation into the Work or following incorporation into the Work.
     7. Granting of progress payment or payments by the Airport, or receipt thereof by Contractor, shall not be understood as constituting in any sense acceptance of Work or of any portion thereof, and shall in no way lessen liability of Contractor to replace unsatisfactory Work or material, though unsatisfactory character of Work or material may not have been apparent or detected at time payment was made.
     8. When the Airport shall charge sum of monies against Contractor under any provision of this Contract, the amount of charge shall be deducted and retained by the Airport from the amount of the next succeeding progress payment or from any other moneys due or that may become due Contractor under this Contract. If, on completion or termination of this Contract, such monies due Contractor are found insufficient to cover the Airport’s charges against him or her, the Airport shall have right to recover the balance from Contractor or sureties.
• MINIMUM COMPENSATION ORDINANCE —

  Labor and Employment Code Article 111 applies to the Contract. Contractor shall pay covered employees no less than the minimum compensation required by San Francisco Labor and Employment Code Article 111, including a minimum hourly gross compensation, compensated time off, and uncompensated time off.

  4. Specifically identified Envision or other rating system credits [Note for Contract Manager: Delete A.4 in its entirety if this Project is not pursuing Envision certification. Update CBC version as required. (Delete this highlighted comment once this task is complete)]

  a. Envision Certification:

  1) The Envision rating system has gained nationwide adoption by numerous federal agencies, state, and local governments, as well as private industries, serving as the benchmark for assessing sustainability in infrastructure. This is achieved by establishing and implementing universally recognized tools and performance criteria related to human wellbeing, mobility, community development, collaboration, planning, economy, materials, energy, water, siting, conservation, ecology, emissions, and resilience. Envision certification is categorized into different levels, namely "Verified" (20%), "Silver" (30%), "Gold" (40%), and "Platinum" (50%). These levels are awarded based on the percentage of points earned for each credit, derived from the total Envision points available for all credits.

  2) Some Envision credits needed to obtain Envision certification depend on product selections and may not be specifically identified as Envision requirements. Compliance with requirements needed to obtain Envision credits may be used as one criterion to evaluate substitution requests and comparable product requests.

  3) Some Envision credits needed to obtain the Envision certification depend on the Engineer’s design, owner operations, and other aspects of Project that are not part of the Work of the Contract.

  4) The Project’s Envision Scorecard is attached at the end of this Section for reference only.

• FUTURE WORK. —

  This Contract will have the following future work, [enter description of future work here].

• INSPECTION AND CORRECTION OF WORK —

  8.01 UNCOVERING OF WORK 

  1. No Work or portion of Work shall be covered until inspected by the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction as required by the Contract Documents.

  2. If any part of the Work is covered contrary to the request or direction of the City Representative or other public authority having jurisdiction, or contrary to the requirements of the Contract Documents, Contractor must, upon written request, uncover it for inspection by the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction and subsequently cover the Work in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents without adjustment to the Contract Time or Contract Sum. The provisions and obligations set forth in this subparagraph 8.01B shall apply even if the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction ultimately determine (after uncovering and inspection) that the underlying Work in question conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents.

  3. Should the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction wish to either (i) re-inspect a portion of the Work that has been covered by Contractor in compliance with subparagraph 8.01A, or (ii) inspect a portion of the Work that has been covered by Contractor which is not required by the Contract Documents to be observed or inspected prior to its being covered and which the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction did not specifically request to observe prior to its being covered, Contractor shall uncover the applicable portion of the Work upon written request. If the City or other public authorities having jurisdiction determine that the Work uncovered conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents, then the City will pay the costs of uncovering and replacement of the cover through a Change Order and will adjust the Contract Time by Change Order if the uncovering and replacement Work extends the most current Substantial Completion or Final Completion date, as applicable. If, however, the City or other public authority having jurisdiction determine that the Work uncovered does not conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents, then Contractor shall pay the costs of uncovering and replacement and shall not be entitled to an adjustment of the Contract Time or the Contract Sum. 

  8.02 TESTS AND INSPECTIONS 

  1. All testing and inspection of the Work required by the Contract Documents (other than special inspections as set forth in subparagraph 8.02B) shall be arranged and paid for by Contractor through an independent testing laboratory, unless specifically indicated in the Contract Documents to be the responsibility of the City or other authority having jurisdiction.

  2. Special inspections to be performed by the City as specified in the Contract Documents or as required to comply with the Code or other agency having jurisdiction shall be performed at the City’s expense. Contractor shall give the City Representative, the City’s independent testing laboratory, special inspectors, and representatives from other authorities having jurisdiction a minimum of two Working Days’ notice, excluding weekends and City holidays, of when and where such special inspections are required so the City may arrange for the appropriate City representatives and inspectors, and representatives from other public authorities having jurisdiction, to be present to perform the necessary inspections or tests. 

  The City reserves the right to modify the scope of, or to reassign, any of the testing and inspection services specified in the Contract Documents to be performed by a testing agency or consultant retained by the City in connection with the Work.

  3. If the City or public authorities having jurisdiction determine that portions of the Work require additional testing, inspection, or approval not included in subparagraph 8.02A, the City will order the performance of such services by qualified independent testing agencies or consultants as may reasonably be required. The City shall bear such costs except as otherwise provided in subparagraph 8.02D. 

  4. If such testing, inspection, or approval reveal failure of the portion of the Work to comply with requirements of the Contract Documents, Contractor shall bear all costs made necessary by such failure including costs of repeated procedures and compensation for the City’s additional testing and inspection services and expenses. 

  1. If the City’s observation of any inspection or testing undertaken pursuant to this Paragraph 8.02 reveals a failure in any one of a number of identical or similar Items or elements incorporated in the Work to comply: (i) with the requirements of the Contract Documents or (ii) with laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, or orders of any public authority having jurisdiction with respect to the performance of the Work, then the City will have the authority to order inspection and testing of all such Items or elements of the Work, or of a representative number of such Items or elements of the Work, as it may consider necessary or advisable. 

  2. Contractor shall bear all costs thereof, including reimbursement to the City for the City’s additional testing and inspection services if any are required, made necessary thereby. However, neither the City’s authority to act under this Paragraph 8.02 nor any decision made by the City Representative in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority, shall give rise to any duty or responsibility of the City to Contractor, any Subcontractor, or any of their agents or employees, or any other person performing any of the Work. 

  5. Neither observation by the City nor inspections, tests, or approvals by the City’s inspectors or testing agencies and consultants, or by other public authorities having jurisdiction, shall relieve Contractor from Contractor’s obligation to perform and provide Quality Control services to assure that the Work conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents. 

  6. Failure or neglect on the part of the City or any of its authorized agents or representatives to condemn or reject Non-conforming Work or defective Materials shall not be construed:

  1. To imply acceptance of such Non-conforming Work or Materials; or

  2. As barring the City at any subsequent time from the recovery of money needed to build anew all portions of such Non-conforming Work; or

  3. To relieve Contractor from the responsibility of correcting Non-conforming Work or Materials. 

  7. Unless otherwise required by the Contract Documents, required certificates of testing, inspection, or approval shall be secured by Contractor and furnished to the City in accordance with the Specifications.

  8. Contractor shall provide promptly all facilities, labor, equipment, and material reasonably needed for performing such safe and convenient inspection and test as may be required by the City. Tests or inspections conducted pursuant to the Contract Documents will be made promptly to avoid unreasonable delay in the Work.

  8.03 CORRECTION OF NON-CONFORMING WORK AND GUARANTEE TO REPAIR PERIOD

  1. Contractor shall (i) correct Non-conforming Work that becomes apparent during the progress of the Work or during the Guarantee to Repair Period and (ii) replace, repair, or restore to the City’s satisfaction any other parts of the Work and any other real or personal property which is damaged or destroyed as a result of Non-conforming Work or correction of Non-conforming Work. Contractor shall promptly commence such correction, replacement, repair, or restoration upon notice from the City Representative, but in no case later than 10 days after receipt of such notice; and Contractor shall diligently and continuously prosecute such correction to completion. Contractor shall bear all costs of such correction, replacement, repair, or restoration, and all damages resulting from such Non-conforming Work, including without limitation additional testing, inspection, engineering, and compensation for City Representative’s services and expenses (including the City’s expenses at the labor rates included in the contracts between the City and the City’s testing and inspection services). This subparagraph 8.03A shall not be interpreted to provide for recovery of attorney’s fees. 

  2. The term “Guarantee to Repair Period” means a period of two years, unless a longer period of time is specified in the General Requirements or other Contract Documents or prescribed by applicable laws and regulations, commencing as follows:

     1. For any Work not described as incomplete in the Punch List/Final Completion, on the date of Substantial Completion.

     2. For space used or for separate systems fully utilized prior to Substantial Completion per Paragraph 9.07, as established in a Notice of Partial Utilization.

     3. For all Work other than subparagraphs 8.03B(1) and 8.03B(2), from the date of Final Completion.

  3. The requirement to correct Non-conforming Work shall continue until one year after the date of correction of repaired or replaced Items, or such longer period as may be specified in the Contract Documents or mutually agreed to by Contractor and City.

  4. If Contractor fails to commence correction of Non-conforming Work or fails to diligently prosecute such correction within 10 Working Days of the date of written notification from the City, the City may correct the Non-conforming Work in accordance with Paragraph 2.04 or may remove it and store the salvageable Materials or equipment at Contractor’s expense. If Contractor does not pay the costs of such removal and storage within five Working Days after written notice, the City may sell, auction, or discard such Materials and equipment. The City will credit Contractor’s account for the excess proceeds of such sale, if any. The City will deduct from Contractor’s account the costs of damages to the Work, rectifying the Non-conforming Work, removing and storing such salvageable Materials and equipment, and discarding the Materials and equipment, if any. If the proceeds fail to cover said costs and damages, the Contract Sum shall be reduced by the deficit. If the current Contract unpaid balance and retention is insufficient to cover such amount, Contractor shall reimburse the City. 

  5. If immediate correction of Non-conforming Work is required for life safety or the protection of property and is performed by the City or a separate contractor, Contractor shall pay to the City all reasonable costs of correcting such Non-conforming Work. Contractor shall replace, repair, or restore to the City’s satisfaction any other parts of the Work and any other real or personal property which is damaged or destroyed as a result of such Non-conforming Work or the correction of such Non-conforming Work.

  6. This requirement to correct Non-conforming Work and all similar requirements applicable to equipment of Subcontractors of any tier or Suppliers used in or as a part of the Work (whether on equipment of the nature above specified or otherwise) shall inure to the benefit of the City without necessity of separate transfer or assignment thereof. 

  7. Contractor’s obligations under this Paragraph 8.03 are in addition to and not in limitation of its warranty obligations under Paragraph 3.17 or any other obligation of Contractor under the Contract Documents. Enforcement of Contractor’s express warranties and guarantees to repair contained in the Contract Documents shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights or remedies City may have under the Contract Documents or at law or in equity for Non-conforming Work. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 8.03 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations of Contractor under the Contract Documents. Establishment of correction periods for Non-conforming Work relate only to the specific obligations of Contractor to correct the Work and in no way limits either Contractor’s liability for Non-conforming Work or the time within which proceedings may be commenced to enforce Contractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents. 

  8.04 ACCEPTANCE OF NON-CONFORMING WORK 

  If, in the sole and unfettered judgment of the City, it is undesirable or impractical to repair or replace any Non-conforming Work, the City may accept such Non-conforming Work in exchange for a reduction in the Contract Sum by such amount as the City or its authorized representatives deem equitable, or Contractor shall rebate moneys previously paid by the City.

  12. The granting of any progress payment, or the receipt thereof by Contractor, shall not constitute acceptance of the Work or any portion thereof and shall in no way lessen the liability of Contractor to replace unsatisfactory Work or Material, though the unsatisfactory character of such Work or Material may not have been apparent or detected at the time such payment was made. 

  13. It is mutually understood and agreed that the City may withhold from any payment otherwise due Contractor such amounts as may be necessary to protect the City to ensure completion of the Project pursuant to the requirements of this Contract. The failure or refusal of the City to withhold any moneys from Contractor shall in no way impair the obligations of any surety or sureties under any Bonds furnished under this Contract. 

  If any payment or portion of payment is withheld by the City, Contractor will be notified in writing of the cause(s) of such action. 

  14. Only Directive or Final Change Orders and undisputed portions of Unilateral Change Orders completely approved and executed by the City shall be included on the payment authorization, and only that portion of the Change Order Work actually performed shall be submitted for payment.

• CONTRACT AND GOVERNMENT CODE CLAIMS —

  13.01 CLAIMS GENERALLY

  1. The City and Contractor acknowledge and agree that early identification and resolution of potential Claims or disputes benefits all parties and advances the success of the Project.

  2. The notice requirements and procedures set forth under this Article 13 are necessary for the City to address potential Claims and disputes. Having knowledge of potential Claims prior to Contractor performing disputed Work and having documentation from Contractor concerning a dispute as Work is being performed is critical for the City to make informed decisions which could impact the budget and schedule for the Project.

  3. Compliance with the Notice of Potential Claim and Contract Claim submission procedures prescribed in this Article 13 are condition precedents to the right to file a Government Code Claim under California Government Code Section 900, et seq., and San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 10. As set forth in Paragraph 13.02, Contractor’s submittal of timely and proper Notices of Potential Claims and Contract Claims may, in some circumstances, toll Contractor’s compliance with the Government Code Claim requirements until the Contract Claim process is finally completed. Refer to Paragraph 13.02. The timely submittal of both a properly completed Contract Claim and a Government Code Claim are conditions precedent to commencing litigation against the City for disputes arising out of or related to this Contract and not expressly excluded from the Contract Claim process per subparagraph 13.01D. Disputed issues not timely raised and properly documented in conformance with this Article 13 shall be deemed waived by Contractor and may not be asserted in a Government Code Claim, subsequent litigation, or legal action. Furthermore, by executing this Contract, Contractor waives any and all claims or defenses of waiver, estoppel, release, bar, or any other type of excuse of non-compliance with the Contract Claim submission requirements.

  4. The Contract Claim procedures specified in this Article 13 do not apply to the following: (i) claims respecting penalties for forfeitures prescribed by statute or regulation which a government agency is specifically authorized to administer, settle, or determine; (ii) claims respecting personal injury, death, reimbursement, or other compensation arising out of or resulting from personal injury or death; (iii) claims by the City; or (iv) Claims respecting stop notices.

  5. The requirements of this Article 13 shall survive expiration or termination of this Contract.

  13.02 NOTICE OF POTENTIAL CLAIM

  1. If, during the course of the Project, Contractor seeks an adjustment of the terms of the Contract Documents, an adjustment to the Contract Sum and/or Contract Time, or other relief with respect to the Contract Documents, including a determination of disputes or matters in question between the City and Contractor arising out of or related to the Contract Documents or the performance of Work (including without limitation determination of delay, assessment of liquidated damages, PCOs, Unilateral Change Orders, denial of CORs, payment, nonpayment, termination for cause, termination for convenience, or other act by the City impacting or potentially impacting payment, nonpayment, withholding, or the performance of the Work), then Contractor must submit to the City a timely Notice of Potential Claim to preserve its right to seek such additional compensation and/or time. 

  2. Contractor must submit a Notice of Potential Claim to the City within seven days of the event, activity, occurrence, or other cause giving rise to the potential Claim. 

  3. A Notice of Potential Claim shall describe the nature and circumstances of the potential Claim event, set forth the reason(s) for which Contractor believes additional compensation and/or time will or may be due, and provide a good faith estimate of the cost and/or time impact to which Contractor believes it may be entitled. Notices of Potential Claims submitted in accordance with Paragraph 3.03 must also identify the escrow bid documents that formed the basis of Contractor’s Bid to perform the Work affected by the alleged Differing Site Condition. 

  4. The Notice of Potential Claim provides early notice to the City of a disputed issue and provides the City with the opportunity to mitigate associated costs, allowing for early resolution. Failure by Contractor to submit a timely Notice of Potential Claim shall constitute a waiver of any claim arising out of the event, activity, occurrence, or other cause giving rise to the potential Claim.

  5. The requirements of subparagraph 13.01A apply regardless of whether or not the disputed issue underlying a potential Claim event has been or will be submitted to an issue resolution/escalation ladder, Dispute Review Board, or similar dispute resolution process that may be required by the Contract Documents.

  13.03 CONTRACT CLAIM

  1. General. The Contract Claim shall be Contractor’s sole and exclusive administrative remedy for additional compensation or time associated with its performance of the Work under the Contract. Failure to submit a timely, certified, and documented Contract Claim in conformance with this Article 13 shall constitute a waiver by Contractor as to any claims relating to its performance of the Work under the Contract and a failure to exhaust its administrative remedies.

  2. Deadline to Submit Contract Claim. The time requirement for submitting a Contract Claim will depend on the dispute resolution process(es) that are incorporated into the Contract Documents. If the Contract Documents require the establishment of an issue resolution/ escalation ladder, Dispute Review Board, or similar supplemental dispute resolution process(es) and Contractor timely refers a disputed issue to the applicable process then the time to submit a Contract Claim shall be extended as set forth in the Contract Document that implements the supplemental dispute resolution process(es). Contractor’s timely referral of a disputed issue to any mandatory supplemental dispute resolution process(es) set forth in the Contract Documents is a prerequisite to filing a Contract Claim under this Article 13. By failing to timely refer a disputed issue to the applicable mandatory supplemental dispute resolution process specified in the Contract Documents, Contractor waives future Contract Claims relating to the disputed issue. 

  1. The following Contract Claim submittal requirements apply (i) if the Contract Documents do not establish a supplemental dispute resolution process or (ii) the Contract Documents establish an optional supplemental dispute resolution process(es) and Contractor elects to not refer the disputed issue to an optional supplemental dispute resolution process. In such cases, Contractor may file a Contract Claim only as to disputed issues presented to and rejected by the City Representative through the Notice of Potential Claim process set forth in Paragraph 13.02. The City Representative will respond, in writing, to Contractor’s Notice of Potential Claim, submitted per Paragraph 13.02, within 30 days of receipt of the Notice. If the City Representative requires additional time to issue a determination, he or she will notify Contractor of the same in writing, within the initial 30-day review period. Contractor shall submit a Contract Claim within 15 days of receipt of the City Representative’s written determination on the Notice of Potential Claim if Contractor disputes the City Representative’s written determination and wishes to preserve its right to pursue the disputed issue. In the event that the City Representative does not issue a written determination on Contractor’s Notice of Potential Claim within the prescribed period, Contractor must submit a Contract Claim either within 15 days of the expiration of the prescribed period, or 45 days of submitting its Notice of Potential Claim, whichever is later, if Contractor wishes to preserve its right to pursue the disputed issue.

  3. Contract Claim Certification Requirement: 

  1. Contractor, under penalty of perjury, shall submit with the Contract Claim certification by Contractor and its Subcontractor(s), as applicable, that: 

  1. The Claim is made in good faith; 

  2. Supporting data are accurate and complete to the best of Contractor’s and/or Subcontractor’s knowledge and belief; and 

  3. The amount requested accurately reflects the Contract adjustment for which Contractor believes the City is liable. 

  2. An individual or officer who is authorized to act on Contractor’s behalf shall execute the certification. Failure to certify a Claim under penalty of perjury shall render the Contract Claim a nullity and the underlying Claim waived by Contractor. 

  3. In regard to a claim or portion of a claim by a Subcontractor, Contractor shall fully review the Subcontractor’s claim and shall certify the Subcontractor’s claim or such relevant portion(s) of the Subcontractor’s claim, under penalty of perjury, in the same manner Contractor would certify its own Claim under the foregoing subparagraph 13.03B(1). The City will not consider a direct claim by any Subcontractor. Subcontractors at any tier are not third-party beneficiaries of this Contract.

  4. Contractor hereby agrees that failure to furnish certification as required in this Article 13 shall constitute a waiver by Contractor as to the subject Claim.

  5. Contractor further acknowledges and agrees that if it submits a false Claim, on behalf of itself or a Subcontractor, Contractor may be subject to civil penalties, damages, debarment, and criminal prosecution in accordance with local, state, and federal statutes. 

  4. Format of a Contract Claim:

  1. Contractor shall document its Contract Claim in the following format: 

     1. Cover letter and certification.

     2. Narrative Summary of Claim merit and amount, and clause under which the Claim is made. 

     3. List of documents relating to Claim: 

  1. Specifications 

  2. Drawings

  5. Additional Requirements for Contract Claims Seeking Time Extensions or Contesting the Assessment of Delay:

  1. 1. All Contract Claims seeking time extensions challenging the assessment of delay and/or liquidated damages shall include, in addition to all other applicable requirements of this Article 13, a written analysis of all changes and all delays impacting the as-built Critical Path (the “As-Built Schedule Analysis”). Contractor shall base its As-Built Schedule Analysis on an as-built schedule that incorporate all actual start and finish dates, actual durations of activities, and actual sequences of construction. Contractor shall obtain the as-built schedule from the most recent Baseline Schedule or progress schedule update as of the time of the activity, occurrence or other cause giving rise to the Claim. Contractor shall create the as-built schedule as an early start schedule, and the schedule shall use the original activity durations for all incomplete Work and the actual logic driving all activities. The As-Built Schedule Analysis shall incorporate all delays (including City, Contractor, and third party Unavoidable Delay without exception) in the time frame that they occurred with actual logic ties. As part of its review of Contractor’s As-Built Schedule Analysis, the City will determine the Critical Path and identify any City-caused and/or third party-caused delays (if any) on the Critical Path. The City will not review or consider any Contract Claim seeking time extensions or contesting the assessment of delay (including liquidated damages) that does not include an As-Built Schedule Analysis that meets the requirements of this subparagraph 13.03E.
     2. The City will not review or consider any Contract Claim regarding time extensions based upon an impacted as-planned CPM, collapsed as-built schedule, time impact analysis, or similar method that does not take into account actual events on the Project.

  6. Procedure for Review of a Contract Claim: 

  1. The City shall review only a timely, certified, and properly documented Contract Claim. 

  2. The City shall respond to a Contract Claim in writing within 45 days of receipt of such Claim. In its response, the City shall either grant or deny the Claim in whole or in part. If the City does not respond to a Claim within the 45-day period, the Claim is deemed denied in its entirety.

  3. Within 10 days of the date of the City’s response or expiration of the 45-day period, whichever is earlier, Contractor may request review of the Contract Claim and the City’s response by the Department Head. The request must be in writing, directed to the Department Head, and copied to the City Representative. Failure by Contractor to make a timely request to the Department Head, copied to the City Representative, shall constitute acceptance by Contractor of the City’s original response.

  4. Upon a timely and proper request, the Department Head, or his/her designee (other than personnel assigned to the Project), shall review the relevant documents, meet with Contractor and City personnel assigned to the Project, and confirm or revise the City’s response to the Contract Claim. The Department Head, or his/her designee, shall issue such determination within 60 days of the date of the request for review. The determination by the Department Head, or his/her designee, shall constitute the final administrative determination of the City. If the Department Head takes no action on a request for review within the 60-day period, the City’s original response shall constitute the final administrative determination by the City.

  13.04 GOVERNMENT CODE CLAIM

  For the purposes of this Contract, the City and Contractor hereby agree that any action at law against the City arising out of or relating to Contractor’s performance of the Work shall accrue either on the effective date of termination (under Article 14 of these General Conditions) or on the date of Substantial Completion, whichever is earlier. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the timely submittal of a complete and proper Notice of Potential Claim and Contract Claim under the administrative procedure specified in this Article 13 shall operate to toll Contractor’s compliance with the Government Code Claim requirements under California Government Code Section 900, et seq., and San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 10 until the City issues a final administrative determination per subparagraph 13.03F(4).

• NONDISCLOSURE OF PRIVATE, PROPRIETARY OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION —
  1. Protection of Private Information. If the Contract requires the City to disclose “Private Information” to Contractor within the meaning of San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 12M, Contractor and Subcontractor shall use such information only in accordance with the restrictions stated in Chapter 12M and in the Contract and only as necessary in performing the Work.

  2. City Data; Confidential Information. In the performance of Work, Contractor may have access to, or collect on the City’s behalf, City Data, which may include proprietary or Confidential Information that if disclosed to third parties may damage the City. If the City discloses proprietary or Confidential Information to Contractor, or Contractor collects such information on the City’s behalf, such information must be held by Contractor in confidence and used only in performing the Contract. Contractor shall exercise the same standard of care to protect such information as a reasonably prudent contractor would use to protect its own proprietary or Confidential Information.

  3. The inability of Bidder or its Subcontractors, Lower-Tier Subcontractors, or Suppliers to provide the above certifications will not necessarily result in denial of award of the Contract. In the event that Bidder or its Subcontractor, Lower-Tier Subcontractor, or Supplier is unable to provide such certification because it currently violates or has previously violated conditions of the certification, a description of each instance of violation and explanation shall be attached to its certification. The certification or explanation will be considered in connection with the City’s determination whether to award the Contract. However, failure of Bidder or its Subcontractors, Lower-Tier Subcontractors, or Suppliers to furnish a certification or an explanation may disqualify such Bidder from eligibility for award of the Contract.

If a participant enters into a covered transaction with another person at the next lower tier, the participant must verify that the person with whom it intends to do business is not excluded or disqualified. The participant may do this by: (i) collecting a certification from that person; or (ii) adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that person; or, if Federal funding is involved in the Project, (iii) checking the System for Award Management (“SAM”) Exclusions list. The participant may rely upon a certification of a Lower-Tier Subcontractor, or Supplier in a covered transaction that it is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. A participant may decide the method and frequency by which it determines the eligibility of its principals. Each participant may, but is not required to, check the SAM Exclusions list, compiled by the General Services Administration, which may be accessed at https://www.sam.gov.
  7. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this Article.

     1. The Notice of Default shall identify the ground(s) for Default and provide Contractor with a 14-day cure period to complete necessary corrective Work and/or actions. 
     2. In the event that necessary corrective Work and/or actions cannot be completed within the 14-day cure period through no fault of Contractor or its Subcontractors/Suppliers, Contractor shall, within the 14-day cure period, (i) provide the City with a schedule, acceptable to the City, for completing the corrective Work and/or actions; and (ii) commence diligently the corrective Work and/or actions.

Pursuant to San Francisco Administrative Code Section 6.22(l), the City may terminate the performance of Work under this Contract in accordance with this Paragraph 14.03 in whole or, from time to time, in part, whenever the City shall determine that such termination is in the best interest of the City. Any such termination shall be effected by delivery to Contractor of a notice of termination specifying the extent to which performance of Work under the Contract is terminated, and the date upon which such termination becomes effective. 

  2. After receipt of a notice of termination, and except as otherwise directed by the City, Contractor shall comply with all of the following requirements: 

  1. Stop Work under the Contract on the date and to the extent specified in the notice of termination. 

  2. Place no further orders or subcontracts for Materials, services, or facilities except as necessary to complete the portion of the Work under the Contract that is not terminated. 

  3. Terminate all orders and subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the performance of Work terminated by the notice of termination. 

  4. Assign to the City, in the manner, at the times, and to the extent directed by the City, all of the right, title, and interest of Contractor under the orders and subcontracts so terminated. The City shall have the right, at its discretion, to settle or pay any or all Claims arising out of the termination of such orders and subcontracts. 

  5. Settle all outstanding liabilities and all Claims arising out of such termination of orders and subcontracts with the approval or ratification of the City, in writing, to the extent it may require. The City’s approval or ratification shall be final for all the purposes of this Paragraph 14.03. 

  6. Transfer title to the City, and deliver in the manner, at the times, and to the extent, if any, directed by the City, (i) the fabricated or unfabricated parts, Work in process, completed Work, supplies, and other Material produced as a part of, or acquired in connection with the performance of, the Work terminated by the notice of termination, and (ii) the completed or partially completed drawings, information, and other property which, if the Contract had been completed, would have been required to be furnished to the City. 

  7. Use its best efforts to sell, in the manner, at the times, to the extent, and at the price or prices that the City directs or authorizes, any property of the types previously referred to herein, but Contractor (i) shall not be required to extend credit to any purchaser, and (ii) may acquire any such property under the conditions prescribed and at a price or prices approved by the City. The proceeds of any such transfer or disposition shall be applied in reduction of any payments to be made by the City to Contractor under this Contract or shall otherwise be credited to the price or cost of the Work covered by this Contract or paid in such other manner as the City may direct. 

  8. Complete performance of such part of the Work as shall not have been terminated by the notice of termination. 

  9. Take such action as may be necessary, or as the City may direct, for the protection and preservation of the property related to this Contract which is in the possession of Contractor and in which the City has or may acquire an interest. 

  3. After receipt of a notice of termination, Contractor shall submit to the City its termination Claim in the form and with the certification the City prescribes. Such termination Claim shall be submitted promptly, but in no event later than three months from the effective date of termination, unless one or more extensions in writing are granted by the City upon written request of Contractor within such three-month period or an authorized extension period. However, if the City determines that the facts justify such action, it may receive and act upon any such termination Claim at any time after such three-month period or extension period. If Contractor fails to submit its termination Claim within the time allowed, the City may determine, on the basis of information available to the City, the amount, if any, due to Contractor because of the termination. The City shall then pay to Contractor the amount so determined. 

  4. Subject to the previous provisions of this Paragraph 14.03, Contractor and the City may agree upon the whole or any part of the amount or amounts to be paid to Contractor because of the total or partial termination of Work. The amount or amounts may include a reasonable allowance for profit on Work done. However, such agreed amount or amounts, exclusive of settlement costs, shall not exceed the total Contract Sum as reduced by the amount of payments otherwise made and as further reduced by the Contract Sum of Work not terminated. The Contract shall be amended accordingly, and Contractor shall be paid the agreed amount. Nothing following, prescribing the amount to be paid to Contractor in the event of failure of Contractor and the City to agree upon the whole amount to be paid to Contractor because of the termination of Work under this Paragraph 14.03, shall be deemed to limit, restrict, or otherwise determine or affect the amount or amounts which may be agreed upon to be paid to Contractor pursuant to this Paragraph 14.03.

  5. If Contractor and the City fail to agree, as subparagraph 14.03D provides, on the whole amount to be paid to Contractor because of the termination of Work under this Paragraph 14.03, the City shall determine, on the basis of information available to the City, the amount, if any, due to Contractor by reason of the termination and shall pay to Contractor the amounts determined as follows: 

  1. For all Work performed before effective date of the notice of termination, the total (without duplication of any items) of the following items: 

  1. The cost of such Work. 

  2. The cost of settling and paying Claims arising out of the termination of Work under subcontracts or orders as previously provided. This cost is exclusive of the amounts paid or payable on account of supplies or Materials delivered or services furnished by Contractor before the effective date of the notice of termination. These amounts shall be included in the cost on account of which payment is made for the cost of Work previously provided. 

  3. A sum, as profit on the cost of the Work as provided in subparagraph 14.03D, that the City determines to be fair and reasonable. But, if it appears that Contractor would have sustained a loss on the entire Contract had it been completed, no profit shall be included or allowed, and an appropriate adjustment shall be made reducing the amount of the settlement to reflect the indicated loss. 

  2. The reasonable cost of the preservation and protection of property incurred as previously provided. The total sum to be paid to Contractor shall not exceed the total Contract Sum as reduced by the amount of payments otherwise made and as further reduced by the Contract price of Work not terminated. Except for normal spoilage, and except to the extent that the City shall have otherwise expressly assumed the risk of loss, there shall be excluded from the amounts payable to Contractor the fair value, as determined by the City, of property which is destroyed, lost, stolen, or damaged, to the extent that it is undeliverable to the City, or to a buyer as previously provided. 

  6. Contractor shall have the right to dispute in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of California any determination the City makes under subparagraph 14.03E. But, if Contractor has failed to submit its termination Claim within the time provided and has failed to request extension of such time, it shall have no such right to dispute the City’s determination. In any case where the City has determined the amount owed, the City shall pay to Contractor the following: 

  1. If there is no right to dispute hereunder or if a right to dispute has not been timely exercised, the amount so determined by the City; or 

  2. If a proceeding is initiated in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of California, the amount finally determined in said proceeding. 

  7. In arriving at the amount due Contractor under this clause there shall be deducted: 

  1. All unliquidated advance or other payments on account theretofore made to Contractor, applicable to the terminated portion of this Contract; 

  2. Any Claim which the City may have against Contractor in connection with this Contract; and 

  3. The agreed price for, or the proceeds of sale of, any materials, supplies, or other things kept by Contractor or sold, under the provisions of this Paragraph 14.03, and not otherwise recovered by or credited to the City. 

  8. If the termination hereunder be partial, before the settlement of the terminated portion of this Contract, Contractor may file with the City a request in writing for an equitable adjustment of the price or prices specified in the Contract relating to the continued portion of the Contract (the portion not terminated by the notice of termination). Such equitable adjustment as may be agreed upon shall be made in the specified price or prices. Nothing contained herein shall limit the right of the City and Contractor to agree upon the amount or amounts to be paid to the continued portion of the Contract when the Contract does not contain an established Contract price for the continued portion. 

  9. Contractor understands and agrees that the foregoing termination of Contract for convenience provisions shall be interpreted and enforced pursuant to cases interpreting and enforcing similar provisions in federal procurement contracts.
