1.30 Time Extensions for Unusually Severe Weather

This provision specifies the procedure for determination of time extensions for unusually severe weather in accordance with:

a. This provision specifies the procedure for section (d) of the CONTRACT CLAUSE 52.249-10 titled "Default (Fixed Price Construction)". For the COR to award a time extension under this clause, the following conditions must be satisfied:

(1) The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must be found to be unusually severe, that is, more severe than the adverse weather anticipated for the project location during any given month.

(2) The unusually severe weather must cause a delay to the completion of the project. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

01 12 00-15

b. The following schedule of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays is based on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or similar data for the project location and will constitute the base line for monthly weather time evaluations. The Contractor's progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse weather delays in all-weather dependent activities for the duration of the project.

MONTHLY ANTICIPATED ADVERSE WEATHER DELAY WORKDAYS BASED ON (5) DAY

WORK WEEK *

Jan Feb Mar Apr May June July Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Kansas City, Missouri

2 3 3 5 6 5 5 4 4 4 4 2

c. Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and continuing throughout the duration of the contract, the Contractor shall record on the daily CQC report, the occurrence of adverse weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Actual adverse weather delay days must prevent work on critical path activities for 50 percent or more of the Contractor's scheduled workday.

d. Within ten days of the following month, the Contractor shall provide in writing a list of their proposed dates of the actual adverse weather delay days for each month. The number of actual adverse weather delay days shall include days impacted by actual adverse weather (even if adverse weather occurred in previous month), be calculated chronologically from the first to the last day of each month and be recorded as full days. If the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days anticipated in paragraph (b), above, the COR will convert any qualifying delays to calendar days and issue a modification in accordance with the Contract Clause entitled "Default (Fixed Price Construction)". After the original contract completion date has passed, adverse weather that causes delay to the completion of the project will be granted day-for-day without deducting anticipated adverse weather delay days and will be converted from workdays to calendar days.

* Monthly anticipated weather delay days shall be adjusted proportionally if work is scheduled to be performed in a work week with greater than or less than a five-day work week. The following formula shall be used to adjust the monthly anticipated weather delays:

Adjusted monthly anticipated weather delays = A multiplied by (B divided by C); where A = The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for a particular month based on a five-day work week. B = The actual average number of days work is scheduled to be performed in a work week during that month.

C = The number five (5) e.g., If the monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for January based on a five day work week is 10 days, but the Contractor actually scheduled an average of a six-day work week for that month, the monthly anticipated weather delay would be adjusted by applying the above formula as follows: 10 x (6/5) = 12 days.

* Monthly anticipated weather delay days shall also be adjusted proportionally for those situations involving a fractional part of a month. Some examples are the month Notice to Proceed is acknowledged and the month of the original contract completion date. The following formula shall be used to adjust the monthly anticipated weather delays:

Adjusted monthly anticipated weather delays = D multiplied by (E divided by F); where D = The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for a particular month.

E = The number of calendar days during that fractional part of a particular month.

01 12 00-16

F = The number of calendar days in that month. e.g., The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for the particular month is 9 days. The original contract completion date is on the twentieth (20th) day of a thirty (30) day month. The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay would be adjusted by applying the above formula as follows:

9 x (20/30) = 6 days.
