2. BID BOND: Each BID must be accompanied by a BID bond payable to the OWNER for five percent of the total amount of the BID. This must be submitted electronically if submitting Bonfire. As soon as the BID prices have been compared, the OWNER will return the BONDS of all except the three lowest responsible BIDDERS. When the Agreement is executed, the bonds of the two remaining unsuccessful BIDDERS will be returned. The BID BOND of the successful BIDDER will be retained until the payment BOND and performance BOND have been executed and approved, after which it will be returned. A certified check may be used in lieu of a BID BOND.
A performance BOND and a payment BOND, each in the amount of 100 percent of the CONTRACT PRICE, with a corporate surety approved by the OWNER, will be required for the faithful performance of the contract.

The CONTRACT DOCUMENTS contain the provisions required for the construction of the PROJECT.

4. DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS: The OWNER reserves the right to reject any BID if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of, such BIDDER fails to satisfy the OWNER that such BIDDER is properly qualified to carry out the obligations of the Agreement and to complete the WORK specified therein. A conditional or qualified BID will not be accepted. Award will be made to the lowest responsible BIDDER.
All applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all authorities having jurisdiction over construction of the PROJECT shall apply to the contract throughout.

7. COMPETENCY OF BIDDERS: The OWNER may make such investigations as he deems necessary to determine the ability of the BIDDER to perform the WORK. In selecting the lowest responsive, responsible Bidder, consideration will be given not only to the financial standing but also to the general competency of the Bidder for the performance of the WORK covered by the Bid. To this end, each Bid shall be supported by a statement of the Bidder's experience as of recent date on the form entitled "INFORMATION REQUIRED OF BIDDER,; bound herein.
