The Contractor shall furnish submittals to the Government in accordance with the contract, the specifications/statement of work, Table 1A- List of Submittals below, and as specified in each task order (whether or not identified in Table 1A- List of Submittals). The word "submittals" includes drawings, data, manuals, certifications, test reports, curves, samples, color chips, charts, brochures, and other items furnished by the contractor for approval and/or other purposes.

2. Submittals. Each item in Table 1A- List of Submittals has been assigned an RSN (required submittal number). The "Submittals Required" column of the table specifies the material to be submitted for each RSN. All of the material specified for an RSN will be submitted as a complete set to the Government. The number of complete sets to be submitted, and the location to which they are to be e-mailed, will be in accordance with the "No. of sets to be sent to:" columns of the table, except as provided below for sets of original material.

When an RSN involves submittal of original (non-copied) material, all original material, or as much thereof as is necessary to form a complete set, will be included in just one complete set. This "originals" set will be sent to the proper address, given in subparagraph (d) below, as determined by the "Responsible Code" column of the table. The "Originals" set will be counted as one of the complete sets that are required to be submitted under the "No. of sets to be mailed to:"

column of the table.

For each RSN, the Contractor shall submit complete sets of required submittal material under the cover of a transmittal letter. At the contractor's option, complete sets for more than one RSN may be submitted under the same transmittal letter, provided they have the same responsible code designation as shown in the table. The Contractor's transmittal letter will include:

a) Reference to the Bureau of Reclamation contract number, task order number, and title of contract or task order (as applicable)

b) Complete list of RSN(s) for which material is being submitted.

c) Identification of responsible code as shown in the Table 1A- List of Submittals.

d) For each RSN, number of complete sets and list of materials included.

e) For each RSN, identification of the submittal as an initial submittal or as a replacement for a previous submittal (re-submittal).

In addition to full-size printed drawings, an electronic version of all final as-built drawings will be provided in AUTOCAD (version) format on CD disks. In addition to printed copies (hard copies), an electronic version of all test reports and O&M manuals will be provided in Microsoft Word format.

Each drawing submitted by the contractor will have the contractor's or supplier's title and drawing number on it. Drawings and data will be marked with the Bureau of Reclamation's contract number, task order number, and the RSN number.

Manufacturer's data for commercial products or equipment, such as catalog cut sheets, will be clearly marked in a manner that will be evident when reproduced to indicate the item(s) to be furnished. The data will identify the manufacturer's name, type, model, size, and characteristics of the product or equipment.

Submittals requiring certification by a registered professional will be signed and sealed.

3. Review of submittals for approval. The time required by the

Government to review submissions made by the Contractor under this contract will vary with the workload of Reclamation. The review period established in the task orders are the maximum anticipated periods required. Every effort will be made to accomplish reviews within shorter periods. All review of submittals shall not exceed 5-working days unless otherwise stated in the task order. The time required for review of submittals or re-submittals furnished under an RSN for approval will not begin until the Government receives complete sets of all the submittal materials required for that particular RSN. The number of calendar days required for review of drawings or data submitted or resubmitted for approval, will begin on the date received by the Government, and will extend through the date of return mailing to the contractor.

Unless otherwise specified, one set of submittals required for approval will be returned to the contractor either approved, not approved, or conditionally approved, and also marked to indicate changes if required. Submittals that are not approved or that require changes or revisions will be revised and resubmitted for approval, and will show changes and revisions with revision date. All requirements specified for the initial submittal will apply to any re-submittals required. Unless otherwise specified, the contractor will deliver all replacement submittals (re-submittals) within 5 calendar days after the Contractor has received the Government's comments.

The Government will require 5 calendar days for review of each re-submittal furnished by the Contractor for approval, and this review time will apply to each separate submittal or re-submittal whether the submittals are approved, not approved, or returned for revision.

If the Government uses time in excess of the specified number of calendar days for review of any submittal, additional time, not to exceed the excess time, will be added to the time allowed the contractor for completion of the work affected by such excess time, to the extent it is demonstrated that the excess time caused delay. If the Government's review of two or more separate submittals or re-submittals is late and results in concurrent days of excess time, such days will be counted only once in computing an extension of the completion date. Further, if the contractor fails to make complete approval submittals in the sequence and within the time periods specified in this specification/statement of work and/or a task order, and thus precludes the Government from approving or considering for approval such submittals within the specified calendar day period, then the contractor will not be entitled to an extension of the time allowed for completion of the work.

4. Addresses. The contractor shall send the submittals to the applicable e-mail addresses listed below as required by the contract, specifications/statement of work, Table 1A, and or as required by a task order. The contractor shall also send a copy of the transmittal letter to each of the addresses listed below that are not sent the submittal.

The cost of attending site visits shall be included in the price bid for each task order or otherwise shall be included in the contractor's G&N overhead.

It is recommended that a visit to the site of the work be made prior to preparing an offer in order to perform investigations as to the existing conditions affecting the work to be done under these specifications. If the contractor chooses not to visit the site or conduct investigations, the contractor will never the less be charged with knowledge of conditions which reasonable inspections and investigations would have disclosed.

Prospective bidders and the contractors shall assume all responsibility for deductions and conclusions as to the difficulties in performing the work.

C.2.16 LEAD BASED PAINT

Lead Based Paint (LBP) exists in several locations throughout the Lower Colorado Dams Structures and buildings. LBP may be found in paints used before 1978. In the event that the contracted activity disturbs any painted surfaces the task order will identify if it contains LBP. The contractor is responsible for PPE, monitoring their employees for lead exposure, installation of controls, and waste disposal.

The work scope of each task order will define whether LBP exists or is assumed to exist on the structural steel and piping being worked on. The contractor must follow OSHA and Reclamation guidelines and define what approach will be used to prevent incident lead exposure. All surfaces to be welded must be free of LBP. The preferred method of localized BCP removal is by chemical stripping the LBP in those areas requiring cutting, welding or machining. Sanding, scrapping, blasting and chipping will not be allowed without an approved LBP plan.
