SC-13 SUBSTITUTES AND “OR-EQUAL” ITEMS

SC-13.1 Whenever an item of material or equipment is specified or described in the Contract Documents by using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular Supplier, the specification or description is intended to establish the type, function and quality required.

Unless the specification or description contains or is followed by words reading that no like, equivalent or “or-equal” item, or no substitution is permitted, other items of material or equipment of other Suppliers may be accepted by Engineer under the following circumstances:

SC-13.2 “Or-Equal”:

If in ENGINEER’S sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR is functionally equal to that named and sufficiently similar so that no change in related Work will be required, it may be considered by ENGINEER as an “or-equal” item, in which case review and approval of the proposed item may, in ENGINEER’s sole discretion, be accomplished without compliance with some or all of the requirements for acceptance of proposed substitute items.

August 2025 SPECIAL CONDITIONS SC - 5

SC-13.3 Substitute Items:

If in ENGINEER’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR does not qualify as an “or-equal” item under subparagraph SC-12.2, it will be considered a proposed substitute item. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information as provided below to allow ENGINEER to determine that the item of material or equipment proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and an acceptable substitute therefor. The procedure for review by the ENGINEER will include the following as supplemented in the General Requirements and as ENGINEER may decide is appropriate under the circumstances. Requests for the review of proposed substitute items of material or equipment will not be accepted by ENGINEER from anyone other than CONTRACTOR. If CONTRACTOR wishes to furnish or use a substitute item of material or equipment, CONTRACTOR shall first make written application to ENGINEER for acceptance thereof, certifying that the proposed substitute will perform adequately the functions and achieve the results called for by the general design, be similar in substance to that specified and be suited to the same use as that specified. The application will state the extent, if any, to which the evaluation and acceptance of the proposed substitute will prejudice CONTRACTOR’s achievement of Substantial Completion on time, whether or not acceptance of the substitute for use in the Work will require a change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for work on the Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute and whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that specified will be identified in the application and available maintenance, repair and replacement service will be indicated. The application will also contain an itemized estimate of all costs or credits that will result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs of redesign and claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which will be considered by ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed substitute. ENGINEER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish additional data about the proposed substitute.

SC-13.4 CONTRACTOR’S Expense:

All data to be provided by CONTRACTOR in support of any proposed “or-equal” or substitute item will be at CONTRACTOR’s expense.

SC-13.5 Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures:

If a specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction is shown or indicated in and expressly required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction acceptable to ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information to allow ENGINEER, in ENGINEER’s sole discretion, to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly called for by the Contract Documents. The procedure for review by ENGINEER will be similar to that provided in subparagraph SC-12.3.

SC-13.6 Engineer’s Evaluation:

ENGINEER will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposal or submittal made pursuant to paragraphs SC-12.3 and SC-12.5. ENGINEER will be the sole judge of acceptability. No “or-equal” or substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized without ENGINEER’s prior written acceptance which will be evidenced by either a Change

August 2025 SPECIAL CONDITIONS SC - 6

Order or an approved Shop Drawing. OWNER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish at CONTRACTOR’s expense a special performance guarantee of other surety with respect to any “or-equal” or substitute. ENGINEER will record time required by ENGINEER and ENGINEER’s Consultants in evaluating substitutes proposed or submitted by CONTRACTOR pursuant to paragraphs SC-12.3 and SC-12.5 and in making changes in the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for work on the Project) occasioned thereby. Whether or not ENGINEER accepts a substitute item so proposed or submitted by CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall reimburse OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER and ENGINEER’s Consultants for evaluating each such proposed substitute item.

SC-14 RECORD DOCUMENTS

CONTRACTOR shall maintain in a safe place at the site one record copy of all Drawings, Specifications, Addenda, Written Amendments, Change Orders, Work Change Directives, Field Orders and written interpretations and clarifications in good order and annotated to show all changes made during construction. These record documents together with all approved Samples and a counterpart of all approved Shop Drawings will be available to ENGINEER for reference. Upon completion of the Work, these record documents, Samples and Shop Drawings will be delivered to ENGINEER for

OWNER.

Failure to maintain and safeguard these required documents shall be grounds for the Owner to issue a non-compliance directive to the Contractor and withhold all payments until such non-compliance is remedied.

SC-15 SUBMITTAL REVIEW

One initial submittal of shop drawings, samples, “or-equal” items and other required submittals and one resubmittal of the same item will be reviewed by the Engineer at no cost to the Contractor. Subsequent reviews for resubmittals of the same item will be reviewed at a cost to the Contractor of $100.00 per man-hour (with a minimum of one man-hour per submittal). Such cost shall be deducted from progress payments to the Contractor and result in a reduction of total contract price.

SC-16 PARTIAL PAYMENTS

Add the following to paragraph 42, Partial Payments, of the General Conditions of the Agreement:

Partial payments requested by the Contractor may include materials delivered, but not yet incorporated into the project. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the work but delivered and suitably stored at the site, or at another location agreed to in writing, then the application for payment shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale or invoice warranting that the equipment and materials are free and clear of all liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by the appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect the Owner’s interest therein. Materials and equipment shall not be considered for partial payment if stored where the Owner cannot confirm the quantities or otherwise seize and secure the equipment and materials in the event that the Contractor defaults on the work. Materials and equipment that are eligible for partial payment will be carried as “Materials on Hand” on the partial pay estimates and then moved from “Materials on Hand” to completed items of the work once those materials and equipment are incorporated into the work. Partial payments for completed items of work will reflect adjustments for prior partial payments made to the Contractor, for the same completed items of work, for “Materials on Hand”. Partial payments for “Materials on Hand” shall be subject to the five-percent retainage. Only actual invoice

August 2025 SPECIAL CONDITIONS SC - 7 amounts and actual freight invoice amounts for delivered items to the locations stated above will be eligible for partial payment as “Materials on Hand”. Materials on hand shall be limited to materials manufactured at a manufacturing facility such as precast reinforced concrete pipe (or box), fiberglass pipe, precast manholes, manhole frames and covers, valves, grates, signal masts/arms, light poles, and so forth. Items not considered as materials on hand are those items which require further processing for use in the project such as cements, aggregates, asphalts, fill materials, concrete, riprap, topsoil, sod, seed, earthen materials, paint, glass beads, raised pavement markers, etc. The final determination of whether a substance or item qualifies as materials on hand is the sole province of the Owners representative under General Conditions Paragraph 14.

SC-17 DUST CONTROL

Sprinkling for dust control shall consist of the authorized application of water or other material approved by the OWNER on those portions of the project as shown on the plans or as directed and as herein specified. It shall be the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR to take preventative measures to eliminate, reduce, or alleviate dust nuisance in the work area. The OWNER will approve the method used. Should the CONTRACTOR fail to control dust as outlined above the OWNER may suspend the work until corrective measures are taken. Water or other material approved by the OWNER shall be furnished by the CONTRACTOR and shall be clean, free from industrial waste and other objectionable matter. Emulsions may be allowed with prior approval by the OWNER. The CONTRACTOR shall furnish and operate a sprinkler equipped truck with positive and rapidly working cutoff valves and approved spray bars, which shall insure the distribution of material in a uniform and controllable rate of application. It shall be the CONTRACTOR’S continuous responsibility to be on call at all times including nights, holidays, weekends, etc. and respond in a timely manner, until acceptance of the project by the OWNER, to maintain the project free of dust in a manner which shall cause the least inconvenience to the public. Dust Control shall be considered as incidental work and shall not be paid for as a separate item; the cost thereof shall be included in such contract pay items as are provided.
