STATEMENTS MADE AFTER BID OPENING BUT PRIOR TO AWARD OF

CONTRACT

Bidders are cautioned that comments and statements, whether oral or written, made by Owner employees regarding the validity of bids, the waiver of deviations from Specifications, the possibility or probability of an award being made to a particular Bidder, and other similar matters are NOT binding by the Owner. Bidders should not order materials, obtain financing or take other actions based on such comments and statements. Only authorization of a contract by the Owner is conclusive and binding on the Owner with respect to this bid and its resulting contract.

BIDDERS INTERESTED IN MORE THAN ONE BID

No person, partnership or corporation shall be allowed to make or file or be interested in more than one bid for the Work, unless alternative bids are called for.

A person, partnership, or corporation submitting a price to a Bidder, or who has quoted prices on material to a Bidder, is not disqualified from quoting prices to other Bidders.

INTERPRETATION OF PLANS AND OTHER DOCUMENTS

of the City of Long Beach Page 3 of 6

If any prospective Bidder is in doubt as to the true meaning of any part of the plans, specifications, or other Contract Documents, or finds discrepancies in, or omissions from the Plans and Specifications or other Contract Documents, the Bidder may submit to Owner a written request for an interpretation or correction. An interpretation or correction of the documents will be made solely by Owner by Addendum. Owner and Owner’s employees, agents or consultants will not be responsible for any other explanation or interpretation of the documents.

ENGINEER’S ESTIMATE OF QUANTITIES OR WORK

The quantities of work to be done and materials to be furnished are approximate as shown in the Contract Documents and are given as a basis for comparison of bid only. Owner does not expressly or by implication agree or represent that the actual amount of work will correspond with the Engineer’s estimates.

ADDENDA

Addenda issued in writing before the time in which to submit bids expires shall be covered in the bid and shall form a part of the Contract Documents.

EXISTING CONDITIONS AND EXAMINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

GENERAL

Each Bidder shall visit the sites of construction so that the facilities, difficulties, and restrictions attending the execution of the Work are fully understood. Bidders shall thoroughly examine and be familiar with the drawings and specifications. Bidders shall carefully correlate observations with requirements of the Contract Documents and otherwise satisfy themselves of the expense and difficulties attending performance of the work. The failure or omission of any Bidder to receive or examine any Contract Document, form, instrument, addendum, or other document or to visit the sites and become acquainted with conditions there existing shall not relieve any Bidder from obligations with respect to the bid or to the Contract. The submission of a bid shall be taken as prima facie evidence of compliance with this section. Bidders shall not, at any time after submission of the bid, dispute or assert that there were any misunderstandings in regard to the nature or amount of work.

SITES

Bidder shall be responsible for identifying and setting up an area for temporary storage of materials and equipment during construction. Upon completion and acceptance of the Work, all equipment, unused materials, temporary facilities, and other miscellaneous items resulting from or used in the operations shall be removed.

The sites shall be restored to their original ground configuration by filling any pits or trenches and leveling soil piles or ruts. All stored materials and equipment shall be removed from the sites as part of demobilization upon completion of the Work.

of the City of Long Beach Page 4 of 6

At all times during the Work, keep the premises clean and orderly, and upon completion of the Work, repair all damage caused by equipment and leave the sites clear of rubbish or excess materials of any kind.

SITE INVESTIGATION AND REPRESENTATION

By submitting a Bid, the Bidder acknowledges satisfaction as to the nature and location of the Work, the general and local conditions, particularly those bearing upon availability of transportation, access to the sites, disposal, handling and storage of materials, availability of labor, water, electric power, roads, and uncertainties of weather, river stages, or similar physical conditions at the sites, the conformation and conditions of the ground, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the Work, and all other matters which can in any way affect the Work or the cost thereof.

By submitting a Bid, the Bidder further acknowledges satisfaction as to character, quality, and quantity of surface and subsurface materials to be encountered from its inspection of the sites and from reviewing any available records of other exploratory work. Failure by the Bidder to become acquainted with the physical conditions of the sites and all the available information will not relieve the Bidder from responsibility for properly estimating the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the Work.

The Bidder warrants by submitting a bid that, as a result of examination and investigation of all the aforesaid data, the Bidder can perform the Work in a good and workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the Owner. The Owner assumes no responsibility for any representations made by any of its employees, officers or agents during or prior to the execution of a Contract, unless (1) such representations are expressly stated in the Contract, and (2) the Contract expressly provides that the responsibility therefor is assumed by the Owner.

AWARD OF CONTRACT OR REJECTION OF BIDS

AWARD

The award will be to the lowest responsible Bidder complying with the Contract Documents. The Owner, however, reserves the right to reject any and all bids, and to waive any informality in bids received. If, in the judgment of Owner, a bid is unbalanced, it shall be considered sufficient grounds for rejection of the entire bid.

Before award of the Contract, any Bidder upon request from the Owner shall furnish a recent statement of the Bidder’s financial condition and previous construction experience or such other evidence of qualifications as may be requested by Owner.

Failure to do so shall constitute grounds for rejection of the bid.

BONDS

of the City of Long Beach Page 5 of 6

The form of bonds that the Bidder, as Contractor, shall be required to execute are included in the Contract Documents and should be carefully examined by the Bidder.

The Contractor, simultaneously with the execution of the Contract, will be required to furnish a payment bond and a performance bond, each in an amount equal to one hundred (100) percent of the Contract Price. Said bonds shall be secured from a surety satisfactory to Owner and who is authorized to transact business in California.

Said bonds shall continue in full force and effect for the guarantee period.

EXECUTION OF CONTRACT

The Contractor shall sign the Contract and return it to Owner, together with the bonds and certificates of insurance and endorsements, within ten (10) calendar days after the mailing date of the Notice of Award. The date of commencement stated in the Notice of Award will constitute the beginning of the Contract Time. The Contract, bonds, certificates of insurance and endorsements and other documents to be executed by Contractor shall be executed and submitted in duplicate, one of which shall be filed with the Owner and one returned to the Contractor. Owner will issue a Notice to Proceed. The receipt of the Notice to Proceed will be authorization for Contractor to begin Work in the field and to start ordering equipment and material.

FAILURE TO EXECUTE CONTRACT OR SUBMIT INSURANCE

Failure by a Bidder to whom the Work is awarded to execute the Contract and file acceptable bonds and certificates of insurance coverage and endorsements as provided herein shall be just cause for the cancellation of the award and the forfeiture of the bid security, and shall make the Bidder liable to Owner for all damages resulting from the failure, including reasonable attorney’s fees. The value of the bid security shall not be a limitation of damages.

The insurance certificates and endorsements included in the Contract Documents shall be completed, without alteration, to the satisfaction of Owner, and delivered to Owner by Contractor or Contractor’s insurance company within ten (10) days after the date of the Notice of Award. The insurance certificates and endorsements shall reflect coverage that complies with all insurance requirements in the Contract Documents.

MISCELLANEOUS

BID BREAKDOWN

Lump-sum and unit-price bid items shall be broken down as indicated on the bid form. Contractor may be directed to provide greater detail of the items making up the Contract Price prior to submission of the first Progress Payment Request as indicated in the General Conditions.

of the City of Long Beach Page 6 of 6

The bidder shall set forth for each item of Work, in clearly legible figures, a unit price and an item total for each item of Work in the respective spaces provided for this purpose. In the case of unit prices, the amount set forth under the ITEM TOTAL column shall be the extension of unit price bid multiplied by the estimated quantity for the item. If the bidder fails to enter a unit price and enters only an item total, then the Owner will divide the item total by the estimated quantity to arrive at a unit price, and the bidder shall be locked by that unit price. If the unit price is less than one cent, be sure that the proper number of zeros are included. If there is a discrepancy between the unit price and the item total, the unit price shall prevail over the item totals and the Owner will correct the item total.

The summation of all items in the ITEM TOTAL column shall be placed at the caption TOTAL AMOUNT BID. The TOTAL AMOUNT BID is informational only and may be used for comparison in determining the apparent low Bid at time of Bid opening. The summation of the mathematically correct extended totals for each item under the ITEM TOTAL column is the intended bid. Any errors shall, at the option of the Owner, constitute grounds for the rejection of the Bid.

CONTRACT TIME

The Contract Time shall be as set forth in the Notice Inviting Bids.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Liquidated damages, if any, shall be as set forth in Article 17.5 of the General Conditions of the Contract Documents.
