If any provision of this Contract is inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions because it conflicts with any other provision of this Contract, or of any constitution, statute, ordinance, rule of law, or public policy, or for any other reason, those circumstances will not render the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or render any other provision or provisions of this Contract invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable to any extent whatever.

4. This written request must be received by the Chief Procurement Officer no later than 10 days before bid opening, or no response will be provided.
