3-Conditional_Waiver_and_Release_(upon_Progress_Payment).pdf

This is a Conditional Waiver and Release of Lien document related to the Wm. S. Hart Union High School District's Hazardous Waste Removal Services project in California. The waiver and release form is designed to be executed upon progress payment to contractors, establishing the conditions under which a contractor agrees to release mechanic's lien rights in exchange for receipt of payment. The document serves as a standard contractual instrument used to protect the project owner and ensure that progress payments are properly documented and that lien rights are appropriately waived by the contractor upon receipt of funds.

The waiver and release form is a critical compliance document for contractors working on the hazardous waste removal project who must hold active class-type licenses (including A, B, C-12, C-21, C-36, C-57, or C-61/D40) along with HAZ-Hazardous Substance Removal Certification. By executing this conditional waiver upon each progress payment, contractors acknowledge receipt of payment for work performed and agree to waive their right to file a mechanic's lien for the amounts covered by that payment. This document protects the project's financial administration while ensuring that contractors' payment rights are properly documented and tracked throughout the project execution phase.
