A. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the Detail Specifications, all workmanship, equipment, materials, and other items incorporated in the Work shall be new and the best grade of the respective kinds for their purpose. Where equipment, materials, other items, or workmanship are referred to in the Detail Specifications as "Equal To" any particular standard, the Engineer in its sole discretion

01 1100-2 shall decide the question of equality. The Contractor shall furnish to the ENGINEER for approval the manufacturer's detailed specifications for all machinery, mechanical and other special equipment, which the Contractor contemplates installing, together with full information as to type, performance characteristics, and all other pertinent information as may be required, and shall likewise submit for approval as required full information concerning all other materials or articles which the Contractor proposes to incorporate in the Work. Machinery, mechanical and other equipment, materials, and/or any other items installed or used without such prior written approval shall be at the risk of subsequent rejections, in which case they shall be replaced by the Contractor at its sole cost and expense. Materials specified by reference to the number or symbol of a specific standard, such as an A.S.T.M. Specification, a Federal Specification or other similar standard, shall comply with requirements in the latest revision thereof, and any amendment or supplement thereto, in effect on the date of the Invitation for Bids, except as limited to type, class or grade, or modified in such reference. The standards referred to, except as modified in the Detail Specifications, shall have full force and effect as though set forth therein. The Owner may require the Contractor to dismiss from the Work such employee or employees as the Owner or the Engineer may deem incompetent, careless, or insubordinate.

B. If, subsequent to the award of the Contract, and in normally rare occurrences, it becomes necessary

(because of delays in delivery, strikes, discontinuance of the manufacture of items specified or the equal thereof, or any other similar reasons) for the CONTRACTOR to request the use of any item of equipment or product which is of a different type than the equipment or product specified, or the approved equal thereof, the ENGINEER at his discretion, may authorize the use of such different type equipment or product of the same, greater or less cost than that specified.

C. In such cases as described in Paragraphs B above, the CONTRACTOR shall submit to the

ENGINEER in writing (1) his request for permission to make a substitution, (2) a complete description of the proposed item, including dimensions, operational characteristics, changes (if any) that will be required to other related parts of the work, etc., and (3) full information as to the costs of the item specified, the cost of the different type item being proposed, as well as costs (additional or credits) or changes (if any) to any related parts of the work. Such information shall be in such form and detail as to permit the ENGINEER to check, to his satisfaction, the reason and costs involved. Upon acceptance of the substitution, in writing, the proper credits to be allowed the OWNER or the proper additional payments to be made to the CONTRACTOR represent the difference between the net cost to the CONTRACTOR of the substituted item or material, and the price at which he could have obtained the lowest priced item or materials specified.

D. The decision of the ENGINEER, from time to time, as to the proper credits to be allowed by the

OWNER or proper payments to be made by the CONTRACTOR, shall be final and conclusive upon the CONTRACTOR.

No work shall proceed which is affected by the discrepancy prior to the ENGINEER's resolution of the problem.

01 1100-3

B. In general, the plans and specifications are complementary; what is called for by one is as binding as if required by all. All items necessary or incidental to completely construct or erect the work denoted shall be furnished as required to provide a complete operating facility whether specifically detailed by the plans and/or specifications or not.

C. Where dimensions or locations of existing facilities are of importance to the successful performance of any part of the work of this Contract, the CONTRACTOR shall verify the correctness of such dimension or location in the field before any other procedure, whether of manufacture of related equipment or construction of related structure, shall begin. Failure of the CONTRACTOR to follow the required verification procedure here specified shall cause him to waive all right to claim for additional cost by reason on the later discovery of inaccurate dimensions or locations of existing facilities as depicted in the Contract Documents.

D. Should discrepancy be found to exist between the various Contract Documents, the following order of priority shall be followed in resolving the intent of the effected documents. In decreasing order of importance, the documents are: the Specifications; Drawings; Supplementary Conditions.
