SECTION 01 10 00.10 38 Page 9

1.18 PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY

1.18.1 Roads To Be Closed

No road shall be closed to the public by the Contractor until construction of the new facilities infringe upon the public safety or until construction of the new facilities obliterate the existing facilities.

The Contractor shall obtain the Contracting Officer's approval before closing any roads. Barricades, danger, warning and detour signs, as required, shall be erected before closing any roads.

1.18.2 Storage of Materials

Materials and equipment shall not be stored within roadway rights-of-way or in such a manner as to pose possible danger or obstruction to the traveling public.

(End of Clause)

1.19 MAINTENANCE DURING CONSTRUCTION

From the first day any work is done, the Contractor shall maintain in an equally satisfactory condition all of the items of work covered by the contract until they are finished, placed in service unfinished, or until all of the work is finally accepted. This maintenance shall be continuous and effective work prosecuted day by day with adequate equipment to the end of that roadway and structures are kept in satisfactory and acceptable condition. The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining all barricades, danger, warning, and detour signs and lights as specified hereinafter. When no pay item for such maintenance is shown in the Bidding Schedule, the cost of maintenance shall be included in the price bid for other pay items, and no separate payment will be made.

1.19.1 Maintenance When Work is Suspended

If construction is suspended for any reason, the Contractor shall place the work in such condition as the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative directs, before suspension, and shall maintain it in a condition satisfactory to the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative throughout the period of the suspension.

1.19.2 Spilled Materials

The Contractor shall not allow spilled materials to remain on the highways. Spillage sufficient to create a traffic hazard shall be removed immediately. Other light spillage shall be removed daily.

(End of Clause)

1.20 INSPECTION

All Government Representatives will comply with the real-time/current time requirements of the Center for Disease Control (CDC) requirements. The Contractor shall not impose or

SECTION 01 10 00.10 38 Page 10 enforce requirements and/or restrictions on the Government representatives which are more stringent than, or exceed the CDC requirements without the prior written approval of the Contracting Officer, and any delays or other costs attributable to teh unauthorized impostion or enforcement of those requirements and/or restrictions shall be at the expense of the Contractor.

(End of Clause)

Should the Contractor refuse, neglect, or delay compliance with these requirements, the specific facilities may be furnished and maintained by the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative and the cost thereof will be deducted from any amounts due or to become due the Contractor.

1.21 PARTNERING

In order to most effectively accomplish this contract, the Government proposes to form a cohesive partnership with the Contractor and its subcontractors. This partnership would strive to draw on the strengths of each organization in an effort to achieve a quality project done right the first time, within budget and on schedule. Integral to the partnership would be a joint Contractor/Government effort to settle any disputes that may arise without costly and time consuming litigation. To that end, a non-binding procedure such as the Alternate Dispute Resolution process could be developed and agreed upon by both parties when it is determined to be necessary. This partnership would be bilateral in make-up and participation will be totally voluntary. Any cost associated with developing this partnership will be agreed to by both parties and will be shared equally with no change in contract price.

(End of Clause)

1.22 LOAD RESTRICTIONS

A special permit will not relieve the Contractor of liability for damage which may result from such hauling. The Contractor shall not operate equipment of such weight or so loaded as to cause damage to drainage structures or the roadway, or to any other type of improvement, either completed or under construction. Hauling of materials over the existing surface shall be limited as directed, and in no case shall legal load limits be exceeded unless permitted in writing. The Contractor shall repair, at his own expense, all damage to the work caused by his equipment.

As soon as construction advances to the extent that temporary barricades, and signs such as "Detour", "One Way Traffic," etc. are no longer needed to inform the traveling public, such signs shall be removed promptly.

1.23.2 Replacement of Signs

When new work is necessary during any period of construction or maintenance, necessary signs shall be replaced as are needed to adequately warn and protect the public in accordance with the provisions outlined above. As soon as the project has been accepted for maintenance, all temporary barricades and warning signs shall be removed promptly.

1.23.3 Cost of Protective Devices

Unless otherwise shown in the Bidding Schedule, the cost of furnishing, erecting, maintaining, and removing protective devices will not be paid for as separate bid items. Where the Contractor is required to perform any of these functions, the cost thereof shall be included in the overall bid submitted. Ownership of the temporary warning devices shall remain with the Contractor provided the devices are removed promptly after completion of the work as specified above. If such warning devices are left in place for more than 30 days after the specified time for removal, the Government shall have the right to remove such devices and to claim possession thereof.

(End of Clause)

1.24 PROTECTION OF EXISTING FACILITIES
