1.3 EXISTING WORK

In addition to FAR 52.236-9 Protection of Existing Vegetation, Structures, Equipment, Utilities, and Improvements:

a. Remove or alter existing work in such a manner as to prevent injury or damage to any portions of the existing work which remain.

b. Repair or replace portions of existing work which have been altered during construction operations to match existing or adjoining work, as approved by the Contracting Officer. At the completion of operations, existing work must be in a condition equal to or better than that which existed before new work started.

1.4 LOCATION OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES

Obtain digging permits prior to start of excavation by contacting the Contracting Officer 15 calendar days in advance. Scan the construction site with electromagnetic or sonic equipment, and mark the surface of the ground where existing underground utilities are discovered. Verify the elevations of existing piping, utilities, and any type of underground obstruction not indicated to be specified or to be removed but indicated or discovered during scanning in locations to be traversed by piping, ducts, and other work to be conducted or installed. Verify elevations before installing new work closer than nearest manhole or other structure at which an adjustment in grade can be made.

1.4.1 Notification Prior to Excavation

Notify the Contracting Officer at least 48 hours prior to starting excavation work. Contact a utility locating service 48 hours prior to excavating. Contractor is responsible for marking all utilities not marked by the utility locating service.

1.5 SUPERVISION

Have at least one qualified supervisor capable of reading, writing, and conversing fluently in the English language on the job site during working hours. In addition, if a Quality Control (QC) representative is required on the contract, then that individual shall also have fluent English communication skills.

1.6 PRECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE

After award of the contract but prior to commencement of any work at the

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 2 site, meet with the Contracting Officer to discuss and develop a mutual understanding relative to the administration of the value engineering and safety program, preparation of the schedule prices, shop drawings, and other submittals, scheduling programming, and prosecution of the work.

Major subcontractors who will engage in the work shall also attend.

1.7 INSPECTION

The Contractor shall keep the Contracting Officer or duly appointed representative fully informed of contract operations and plans so that arrangements can be made to ensure that a Government representative is on site at the various times that work is being performed.

1.7.1 Contractor's Daily Log

The Contractor shall complete the USCG Daily Log form at the end of each working day and deliver it to the Government Inspector (Contracting Officer's Representative). The Government Inspector will attest to its accuracy by initiating the form and forwarding that form to CEU Providence. The form will be provided to the Contractor by the Contracting Officer's Representative.

1.8 BASIS OF DESIGN AND BRAND NAME OR EQUAL

In general, the Federal Government does not include the name of manufacturers or model numbers to specify various items, equipment, components, or systems. However, since equipment or other items of equal capacity is not necessarily available in the same arrangement, size, or construction required for the specific use or application required, manufacturers' model numbers, figures, or other "Brand Name" information or references are used in the Contract Documents for the convenience of the Government and as a service to bidders, in order to generally identify features, performance, and level of quality or materials to be provided.

The information may appear in the specifications, on the drawings (in the form of drawing notes, schedules or other similar methods), or a combination of these methods.

Use of the name of a manufacturer in conjunction with the words "or equal" or "Design Basis" does not indicate a preference for this equipment, but rather that the Government is not aware of all possible or acceptable sources of supply for the particular item, but has located at least one source. However, given the impact on the construction schedule, and need for coordination during that period, these two conditions have specific meanings relative to contract document requirements.

1.8.1 Basis of Design

Items specified without identifying a manufacturer or using "Design Basis" of "Basis of Design" may be proposed as part of the normal submittal process.

1.8.2 Brand Name or Equal

Items specified with the words "Brand Name or Equal" (information in square brackets may be a manufacturer plus model number or series of equipment) have been so specified because of their particular significance relative to successfully achieving design requirements and intent. When this specification method is used, the Contractor shall, if s/he would prefer to use a manufacturer/model number other than that specified, SECTION 01 11 00 Page 3 include a detailed submittal fully describing the item, including its ability to meet or exceed the required salient characteristics of the specified equipment, with the bid materials submitted, as an alternate manufacturer for evaluation as part of the bidding process. The Contractor shall also fully bear any costs associated with use of the alternate equipment or item, if approved (e.g., work by other trades, other modifications required to achieve project requirements).

Equipment, components, items, products, or systems specified using the Brand Name or Equal method are listed below, along with associated specification section and location therein:
