The Contracting Officer will designate a Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) at the time of contract award. The COR is responsible for administering the performance of work under this contract.

In no event, however, will any understanding, agreement, modification, change order, or other matter deviating from the terms of this contract be effective or binding upon the Government unless formalized by proper contractual documents executed by the Contracting Officer prior to completion of the contract.

The Contracting Officer should be informed as soon as possible of any actions or inactions by the

Contractor or the Government which will change the required delivery or completion times stated in the contract, and the contract will be modified accordingly. (This does not apply to individual task assignments which were issued by the COR provided they do not affect the delivery schedule or performance period stated in the contract).

On all matters that pertain to the contract terms the Contractor must communicate with the Contracting

Officer. Whenever, in the opinion of the Contractor, the COR requests effort outside the scope of the contract, the Contractor should so advise the COR. If the COR persists and there still exists a disagreement as to proper contractual coverage, the Contracting Officer should be notified immediately, preferably in writing if time permits. Proceeding with work without proper contractual coverage could result in nonpayment or necessitate submittal of a contract claim.

G.6 Contractor’s Designated Representative

It is required that the Contractor have a designated representative available on the project during the entire project and that the representative be able to speak and understand English. When designating a representative, the Contractor shall furnish a copy of the designation in writing to the Contracting Officer.

Such designation shall clearly indicate the name and limitations (if any) of authority of the representative. If the Contractor intends to designate a representative prior to the pre-work meeting, the representative is strongly encouraged to attend that meeting.

G.7 FAR 52.236-4 Physical Data (APR 1984)

Data and information furnished or referred to below is for the Contractor's information. The Government shall not be responsible for any interpretation of or conclusion drawn from the data or information by the

Contractor.

A spark arrester, which does not meet the requirements in this guide may be approved upon submission of acceptable proof that the arrester is at least 80 percent efficient in retention, attrition, or destruction of carbon particles. Such arrester may be required to meet higher standards as improvements in design and efficiency are discovered.

(c) A passenger-carrying vehicle or light truck intended primarily for use on roads, and equipped with a factory designed muffler and exhaust system.

(d) A heavy duty truck, such as a dump or log truck, or other vehicle used for commercial hauling, used only on roads and equipped with a factory designed muffler and with a vertical stack exhaust system extending above the cab.

H.10 Prosecution Of Work

Areas of weak ground are crossed on this project. The initial embankment depth shall be as SHOWN ON

THE DRAWINGS or determined by the Contracting Officer. Reestablish design centerline grade and alignment in accordance with Section 152 as construction progresses, and prior to the placement of borrow excavation. Reestablished design grades may be re-staked by the Contracting Officer to meet local conditions. Final grades may be at elevations other than those SHOWN ON THE DRAWINGS, but in no instance will they be lower than that of the surrounding ground elevations.
