1.06 SITE INVESTIGATION

A. The CONTRACTOR, by virtue of signing the Contract, acknowledges that the CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors have satisfied themselves to the nature and location of the WORK, the general and local conditions including, but not restricted to: those bearing upon transportation; disposal, handling and storage of materials; access roads to the site; the conformation and conditions of the WORK area; and the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the performance of the WORK. Failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR to completely or properly evaluate the site conditions shall not be grounds for additional compensation.

B. Soil boring information may be furnished to the CONTRACTOR for general information. Such data is not warranted to be correct; the CONTRACTOR, by virtue of signing the Contract, acknowledges that the CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors have satisfied themselves as to the nature and extent of soil and (underground) water conditions on the project site. Unless approved in writing by the ENGINEER, no additional payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR because of differences between actual conditions and those shown by the boring logs.

1.07 WORK BY OTHERS

A. Concurrent WORK by other contractors. The CONTRACTOR's attention is directed to the fact that WORK may be conducted at the site by other contractors during the performance of the WORK under this Contract. The CONTRACTOR shall conduct its operations so as to cause little or no delay to WORK of such other contractors, and shall cooperate fully with such contractors to provide continued safe access to their respective portions of the site, as required to perform WORK under their respective contracts.

B. Interference with WORK on Utilities. The CONTRACTOR shall cooperate fully with all utility forces of the OWNER or forces of other public or private agencies engaged in the relocation, altering, or otherwise rearranging of any facilities which interfere with the progress of the WORK, and shall schedule the as to minimize interference with said relocation, altering, or other rearranging of facilities.

1.08 WORK SEQUENCE

A. The CONTRACTOR shall schedule and perform the WORK in such a manner as to result in the least possible disruption to the public's use of roadways, driveways, and utilities. Utilities shall include but not be limited to water, sewerage, drainage structures, gas, electric, television and telephone.

Prior to commencing with the WORK, CONTRACTOR shall perform a location investigation of existing underground utilities and facilities in accordance with Section 01561 entitled "Protection of Existing Facilities" and shall have obtained all required permits and permissions, CONTRACTOR shall also deliver written notice to Broward County Water Management District Customer Service Section, City, ENGINEER, and property occupants (private and public) of all planned disruption to roadway, driveways, and utilities 72 hours in advance of disruption.

B. Because other projects will be connected to portions of WORK constructed as part of this project, it may be necessary to sequence portions of this project. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible to coordinate construction activities with CONTRACTOR of adjacent phases and sections.

Those resources may include multiple working crews, working overtime, etc. Because time is of the essence the CONTRACTOR's construction progress will be monitored closely on a weekly basis.

The Construction progress will be measured with the construction schedule submitted by the CONTRACTOR. If the ENGINEER determines that the CONTRACTOR does not meet the Critical Path Method (CPM) as specified in Section 01321 entitled " Schedules and Reports", the CONTRACTOR will be required to commit those resources necessary to ensure the completion of the project in a timely manner including working overtime, adding other WORK crews, etc. All costs incurred to implement measure to complete the WORK in timely manner will be borne by the CONTRACTOR at no additional cost to the OWNER.

1.10 COMPUTATION OF CONTRACT TIME

A. It is the CONTRACTOR's responsibility to provide clear and convincing documentation to the ENGINEER as to the effect additional WORK will have with respect to additional contract time extension that may be justified. If additional quantities of WORK can be carried out concurrent with other existing construction activities without disrupting the critical path of the project then no contract time extension will be granted. CONTRACTOR is obligated to provide documentation to the ENGINEER if additional elements of WORK affect the critical path of the project. If WORK set forth in the original scope of the project is deleted, the contract time may be reduced. This contract is a calendar day contract. While the CONTRACTOR may be granted time to suspend WORK operations for vacations or holidays, contract time will not be suspended. During suspensions CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for all maintenance of traffic and liability without additional compensation from the OWNER.

1.11 CONTRACTOR USE OF PREMISES

A. The CONTRACTOR's use of the project site shall be limited to its construction operations. Storage of materials will be arranged for by the CONTRACTOR and a copy of an agreement for use of other property shall be furnished to the ENGINEER.

No additional payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR because of discrepancies in actual and plan location of utilities and damages suffered as a result thereof.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall notify each utility company involved at least thirty (30) days prior to the start of construction to arrange for positive underground location, relocation or support of its utility where that utility may be in conflict with or endangered by the proposed construction.

Relocation of water mains or other utilities for the convenience of the CONTRACTOR shall be paid for by the CONTRACTOR. All charges by utility companies for temporary support of its utilities shall be paid for by the CONTRACTOR. All costs of permanent utility relocations to avoid conflict shall be the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR and the utility company involved.
