2. "Product Data" are illustrations, standard schedules, performance charts, instructions, brochures, diagrams, and other information furnished by the Contractor to illustrate materials or equipment for some portion of the Work.
3. "Samples" are physical examples that illustrate materials, equipment, or workmanship and establish standards by which the Work will be judged.
4. "Submittals" are documents required by the Contract to be submitted to the Owner for review, but they are not part of the terms and conditions of the Contract. They may include Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, or a schedule of construction events.
B. Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, and other Submittals are not part of the Contract. Their purpose is to demonstrate, for those portions of the Work for which Submittals are required, the way the Contractor proposes to conform to the requirements of the Contract and the design concept expressed in the Contract.
C. The Contractor will review, approve, and submit to the Owner all Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, and other Submittals required by the Contract regardless of whether the document originated with the Contractor or with some other Subcontractor or supplier. They will be submitted at the time required by the Contract, or, if no time is specified, with reasonable promptness and in such sequence as to cause no delay in the Work or in the activities of the Owner or of separate Contractors. Submittals made by the Contractor that are not required by the Contract may be returned without action or may not be returned at all.
D. Informational Submittals that do not require the Owner to take responsive action may be so identified in the Contract.
E. The Contractor will provide electronic copies of any Submittal required by the Contract or when requested by the Owner's Representative. In addition, the Contract may also require the Contractor to provide information about the products and materials it proposes to incorporate into the Work and to provide samples of such products and materials for inspection or testing. The Contractor is to be responsible for all Submittals presented to the Owner for review, no matter what their point of origin may have been.
F. The Contractor may not perform a portion of the Work that requires the Owner to review a Submittal until the respective Submittal has been reviewed by the Owner as outlined below. Such
- 13 -work is to be performed in accordance with Submittals that conform to the Contract Documents.
G. When tendering a Submittal to the Owner for review, the Contractor represents that it has determined and verified materials, field measurements, and field construction criteria related thereto, or will do so, and has checked and coordinated the information contained in such Submittals with the requirements of the Work and of the Contract. The Contractor is to expressly note where any Submittal differs from or varies from the requirements of the Contract, notwithstanding any belief on the part of the Contractor that the variance is obvious.
H. The Owner's review of any Submittal does not relieve the Contractor from its responsibility to follow the requirements of the Contract. The Owner is not responsible for ensuring that Submittals are correct. Failure of the Owner to discover that a Submittal varies from the requirements of the Contract Documents does not relieve the Contractor of its responsibilities to conform to the Contract or provide a basis for a Change Order. Nevertheless, the Owner's Representative will review any Submittals provided in order to make a general determination about whether they appear to meet Contract requirements or the intended design of the Project.
The Contractor remains responsible for following the Contract, including, but not limited to:
1. Confirming and correlating all dimensions;
2. Conforming to specified fabricating and construction techniques;
3. Coordinating the work with that of all other trades and Subcontractors;
4. Satisfactorily performing the Work in strict accordance with the Contract Documents; and
5. Following the prescribed means and methods of construction.
I. The Owner's Representative has 14 days to review any Submittals, unless a different time is established elsewhere. The Owner's Representative will review the Submittals and return each of them to the Contractor stamped with one of the following notations:
1. "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN": If the Submittal is marked "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN," this means that the Contractor can immediately begin the work encompassed by the Submittal.
2. "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED": If the Submittal is marked "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED," the Contractor is required to make any revisions suggested by the Owner's Representative and, on correction, may immediately begin the work indicated by the Submittal or may incorporate the material or equipment covered by the Submittal into the Work.
3. "REVISE AND RESUBMIT": If the Submittal is marked "REVISE AND RESUBMIT," the Contractor is required to revise the Submittal and resubmit it to the Owner's Representative. No work that is shown on the Submittal, or that is dependent on approval of the Submittal or material or equipment covered by the Submittal, may be incorporated into the Work until the Contractor has made the necessary revisions, resubmitted the Submittal, and received the Submittal back marked either "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN" or
"MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED."
4. "REJECTED": If the Submittal is marked "REJECTED," it means that the Owner's
- 14 -
Representative has found the Submittal, material, or product data to be unacceptable and not in conformance with the Contract. Generally speaking, rejection of a Submittal simply indicates the Owner's Representative's belief that the defects in the Submittal are so great that it cannot be revised in order to make it conform to the Contract, as indicated in subparagraph I(3) above. The Contractor may not begin work indicated by the Submittal, nor incorporate material or equipment, nor proceed with Work dependent on review of the Submittal, into the Work based on any Submittal, product data, or material that has been marked "REJECTED."
5. "SUBMIT SPECIFIED ITEM": If the Submittal is returned marked "SUBMIT SPECIFIED ITEM," it means that additional information is required to permit a full review. Work may begin on incorporating the material or equipment covered by the Submittal into the Work only if it is not affected by the item to be submitted. But if any material or equipment is affected by the item to be submitted, then no Work may begin until the Submittal is resubmitted and returned marked either "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN" or "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED."
J. The following rules about Contract Time apply to Submittals. Contract Time will not be extended if:
1. The Contractor's delay resulted from the District's use of the full amount of allotted time under the Contract to review the Contractor's Submittal;
2. The Contractor's delay resulted from its own failure to provide a Submittal in a timely manner;
3. The Contractor's delay resulted from a Submittal that was properly marked "Revise and Resubmit," "Rejected," or "Submit Specified Item"; or
4. The Contractor did not understand what it was required to submit and failed to inquire about it in a timely manner.
K. If the Contractor disagrees with the District's review of its Submittal and the District's action has the potential of increasing the Contractor's costs, the Contractor will proceed as required by subsection 109.17.
L. The Contractor will keep a current schedule and list of Submittals available for the Owner's Representative review and approval. The schedule and list shall be coordinated with the Contractors construction schedule and allow the Owner's representative reasonable time to review submittals.
104.04 EXTRA WORK AND CHANGES
A. The Owner and the Contractor mutually agree that changes in Plans, quantities, or details of the Work are inherent in the nature of construction and may be necessary or desirable. Therefore, without impairing the Contract, the Owner reserves the right to require changes determined necessary or desirable to complete the proposed construction within the general scope of the Work provided for in the Contract or to order Extra Work if that is required. Performance of changed or Extra Work will not invalidate the Contract or release the Contractor's Surety from its obligations. Changes to the Contract Amount, if any, as a result of the performance of changed or Extra Work must be made pursuant to subsection 109.04.
- 15 -
B. The Owner may at any time, by written order, require the Contractor to perform changed or Extra Work. The Owner's Representative will provide Notice of such order to the Surety if the cost of the changed or Extra Work exceeds 25 percent of the total original Contract Amount.
C. When so ordered in writing by the Owner's Representative, the Contractor will proceed with the performance of any changed or Extra Work regardless of whether Contract Amount or Contract Time has been agreed on. If the Contractor refuses to perform the changed or Extra Work, this is a material breach of the Contract and the Owner will have all remedies available to it at law and in equity for that breach. The Contractor will have no right to additional Contract Time for delay incurred by the Contractor's refusal to perform because either the price or the time, or both, has not yet been agreed on. The Contractor's remedy is, instead, to proceed as required by subsection 109.17.
D. When the Owner's Representative is contemplating changed or Extra Work, a Notice of the proposed changed or Extra Work, together with a solicitation for a quotation for the performance of the changed or Extra Work, is to be issued to the Contractor, in writing, by the Owner's Representative.
1. The Contractor will submit a price quotation and Proposal for performing the changed or Extra Work within ten days unless the Owner agrees on a longer period of time in writing.
The Contractor must submit data to substantiate both the cost of performing the Extra Work and any additional Contract Time that may be requested.
2. The Contractor's delay in submitting a price quotation and Proposal does not, in and of itself, extend the Contract Time. If the Contractor is unable to prove that the changed or Extra Work will cost it additional money or is unable to substantiate that it will take additional Contract Time, the Contractor has waived any Claim it might have to either Contract Time or additional money after the decision to proceed with the Work has been made by the Owner and communicated to the Contractor.
104.05 DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS
A. The Contractor must promptly, and before the conditions are disturbed, give written Notice to the Owner's Representative of:
1. Preexisting subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site that differ materially from those indicated in the Contract; or
2. Preexisting unknown physical conditions at the site, of an unusual nature, that differ materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the Work of the character provided for in the Contract.
B. After receipt of the Notice, the Owner's Representative will promptly investigate the conditions encountered by the Contractor. If the Owner's Representative finds that the conditions are materially different and cause a material increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or the time required for, performing any part of the Work under the Contract, whether or not changed as a result of the conditions, an Equitable Adjustment to the Contract will be made under this clause and the Contract modified in writing accordingly. If possible, the Owner and the Contractor are to agree on the adjustment to be made. If they are unable to agree, the Owner's Representative will determine the amount of the Equitable Adjustment and adjust the time to perform if appropriate. If the Owner's Representative finds that differing site conditions do not exist, that
- 16 -decision is final and binding on the Contractor.
C. The Contractor has waived its right to bring a Claim for additional compensation or Contract Time for encountering a differing site condition unless the Contractor has given the Notice required by paragraph A above. No request by the Contractor for an Equitable Adjustment to the Contract as a result of a differing site condition will be allowed if the request is made after Final Payment under the Contract.

105 CONTROL OF WORK
105.01 AUTHORITY OF THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE
The Work must be performed to the complete satisfaction of the Owner's Representative.
A. The decision of the Owner's Representative will be final, binding, and conclusive on the Contractor on all questions that arise regarding the quantity of materials and work, the quality of materials and work, the acceptability of materials furnished and work performed, the acceptable rate of progress of the work, the interpretation of the Plans and Specifications, the measurement of all quantities, the acceptable fulfillment of the Contract on the part of the Contractor, and payments under the Contract.
B. Work will not be considered completed until it has passed final inspection by the Owner's Representative and is accepted by the Owner. The authority of the Owner's Representative is such that the Contractor must at all times carry out and fulfill the instructions and directions of the Owner's Representative insofar as they concern the Work to be done under the Contract.
C. If the Contractor fails to comply with any reasonable order made under the provisions of this subsection, the Owner's Representative may cause unacceptable work to be remedied or removed and replaced, and unauthorized work to be removed, and to deduct the costs thereof from any money due or to become due to the Contractor.
D. The Owner's Representative has the authority to suspend work for cause as set forth in subsection 108.07.
E. Nothing in this subsection or elsewhere in the Contract is to be construed as requiring the Owner's Representative to direct or advise the Contractor on the method or manner of performing any work under the Contract. No approval or advice as to the method or manner of performing or producing any materials to be furnished constitutes a representation or warranty by the Owner that the result of such method or manner will conform to the Contract, relieve the Contractor of any of the risks or obligations under the Contract, or create any liability to the Owner because of such approval or advice.
F. An Architect, Engineer, designer, or other person hired by the Owner under a separate contract is not the Owner's Representative, unless the Contract Documents expressly state otherwise. The Contractor will be notified if the Owner's Representative has been changed.
105.02 USE OF ARCHITECT, ENGINEER, OR PROJECT MANAGER AS THE OWNER'S
REPRESENTATIVE
A. The Owner may choose to have a consulting Architect, Engineer, or Project Manager who is not a District employee administer this Contract and, if so, may so notify the Contractor. When that occurs, the Architect, Engineer, or Project Manager is the Owner's Representative for purposes of this Contract and has the Owner's Representative's rights and responsibilities outlined in subsection 105.01, unless specifically modified by other portions of the Contract Documents.
The Owner has the right to review the Architect's, Engineer's, or Project Manager's work and recommendations, including recommendations for payment, and may accept or reject the Architect's, Engineer's, or Project Manager's advice.
- 18 -
B. Any drawings, Specifications, and other documents prepared by the Architect or Engineer are instruments of the Architect's or Engineer's service through which the Work to be executed by the Contractor is described. The Contractor may retain one Contract record set and any other necessary copies. Neither the Contractor nor any Subcontractor, sub-Subcontractor, or material or equipment supplier may own or claim a copyright in the drawings, Specifications, and other documents prepared by the Architect or Engineer, and unless otherwise indicated, the Architect or Engineer is deemed to be the author of them and will retain all common-law, statutory, and other reserved rights, in addition to the copyright. The drawings, Specifications, and other documents prepared by the Architect or Engineer, and copies thereof furnished to the Contractor, are for use solely with respect to this Project. They are not to be used by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, sub-Subcontractor, or material or equipment supplier on other projects or for additions to this Project outside the scope of the Work without the specific written consent of the Owner and Architect or Engineer. The Contractor, Subcontractors, sub-Subcontractors, and material or equipment suppliers are granted a limited license to use and reproduce applicable portions of the drawings, Specifications, and other documents prepared by the Architect or Engineer that are appropriate to and for use in the execution of their Work under the Contract Documents. All copies made under this license must bear the statutory copyright notice, if any, shown on the drawings, Specifications, and other documents prepared by the Architect or Engineer. Submittal or distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for other purposes in connection with the Project is not to be construed as publication in derogation of the Architect's or Engineer's copyright or other reserved rights.
C. Nothing in this subsection changes the Contractor's duties as outlined elsewhere in the Contract Documents. For example, the Architect's or Engineer's presence does not relieve the Contractor of performing the Work in accordance with the law, statutes, ordinances, or building codes, nor does it relieve the Contractor of the duty to obtain all required Permits.
105.03 AUTHORITY OF ASSISTANTS AND INSPECTORS
A. The Owner's Representative may assign Inspectors, assistants, and other persons to advise the Owner whether the work and materials meet Contract requirements.
