1). The following water stage, wave, wind, and weather data are provided for inclusion into the subject Plans and Specifications. The following water level datums are provided for information only and are not to be utilized in conjunction with any contract related hydrographic surveying.

a) Water Stages. Water levels in the project area are mainly affected by semi-diurnal tidal fluctuations in the Atlantic Ocean. The project area is also subject to storm surges from hurricanes and tropical storms from June through November. Surges from extratropical storms may affect the area during any time of the year.

Elevations of tidal datums in the vicinity of the project area are provided in the following table.

All datum elevations in this table are referred to mean lower low water (MLLW). These datums are based on values from the NOS tidal benchmark for tide station #8722371 (Sewall Point, St.

Lucie River), which are based on values from a control tide station located in Miami Beach.

This station is located just inside the mouth of St Lucie Inlet. Table 1 is representative of conditions within the inlet and Intracoastal Waterway. This tide station was established by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS) and are applicable within the project vicinity. Additional information on these and other nearby tide stations is available at this NOAA website:

c) Weather Conditions. The project area is subject to tropical storms and hurricanes from June through November, and to windy and/or rainy weather during any time of the year.

The climate of the area is essentially tropical, and temperatures below freezing are rare. The wet season in the project area is from May through October. Rainfall during these months is closely associated with convective activity. These rainfall events are normally of short duration and amounts are spatially variable. In general, the winter months constitute the dry season. Rainfall during the winter months is usually associated with mid-latitude systems (fronts and low pressure systems) and is distributed in a more spatially uniform pattern. Occasionally, daily rainfall in the dry season can be quite heavy as mid-latitude systems penetrate into south Florida.

Dangerous thunderstorms can occur in this area at any time of the year.

It shall be the contractor's responsibility to obtain information concerning weather conditions in the project area. The Climate Data Online website http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/ published by NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (formerly the National Climatic Data Center) in Asheville, North Carolina contains climatological and meteorological observations and data relevant to this region. Available data includes quality controlled daily, monthly, seasonal, and yearly measurements of temperature, precipitation, wind, and degree days as well as radar data and 30-year climate normals.

NOAA’s Climate Data Online website also includes 1981 – 2010 Monthly Normals at the following website: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datatools/normals. This product provides monthly average values for temperature, precipitation, and other information. NOAA’s Stuart, FL gauge (ID USC00088620) is located at 27° 11.4’ N, 80.° 14.4’ W. Monthly normal rainfall data are provided over the period of record from January 2001 to December 2010.

1.6 LAYOUT OF WORK

Read this paragraph in conjunction with the Clause LAYOUT OF WORK (FAR 52.236-17) of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1.

1.6.1 Established Project Control

The Government has established monuments along the work site(s). Each monument is represented in the contract drawings by a Designation and in most cases, an alphanumeric Permanent Identifier (PID). Information concerning the location and elevations can be found within the Survey Notes on the plan sheets. The Survey Notes for each included field survey will cite a particular survey number, and specify the control used to conduct that survey. Additional information is included in the Survey Notes that must be duplicated if an attempt to recreate the subject survey is desired.

For navigation channels, the Government has established tidal calibration sites for projects constructed and maintained to a tidal datum. Each tidal calibration site is represented in the plan sheet drawings by Station ID, and is cited in the Survey Notes. All projects constructed and maintained to a tidal datum shall be calibrated to the Station ID specified in the plan sheet drawings. Information regarding the location and associated benchmarks of the referenced Station ID is included in the Monument Description section of these specifications.

See Section 00 31 21 CONTROL MONUMENT DESCRIPTIONS.

1.6.2 Layout

From the monuments, control data and elevations established by the Government, complete the layout of the work and obtain all measurements that may be required for the execution of the work to the location and limit marks prescribed in the specifications or on the contract drawings, subject to such modifications as the Contracting Officer may require to meet changed conditions or as a result of necessary modifications to the contract work.

1.6.3 Survey

Provide equipment, tools, material, labor for laying out any part of the work from the monuments, control data, and elevations established by the Government. Maintain and preserve all monuments, stakes and other marks established by the Contracting Officer until authorized to remove them, and if such marks or monuments are destroyed by the Contractor or through negligence, prior to their authorized removal, they may be replaced by the Contracting Officer, at their discretion, and the expense of replacement will be deducted from any amounts due or to become due the Contractor.

The Contracting Officer may require that work be suspended at any time when location and limit marks established by the Contractor are not reasonably adequate to permit checking of the work.

1.7 DAMAGE TO WORK

The responsibility for damage to any part of the permanent work will be as set forth in Clause PERMITS AND RESPONSIBILITIES of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1. However, if, in the judgment of the Contracting Officer, any part of the permanent work performed by the Contractor is

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 4 damaged by flood, earthquake, hurricane, or tornado, which damage is not due to the failure of the Contractor to take reasonable precautions or to exercise sound engineering and construction practices in the conduct of the work, make the repairs as ordered by the Contracting Officer and full compensation for such repairs will be made at the applicable Contract unit or job prices as fixed and established in the Contract. If, in the opinion of the Contracting Officer, there are no contract unit or job prices applicable to any part of such work, an equitable adjustment pursuant to Clause CHANGES of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1 will be made as full compensation for the repairs of that part of the permanent work for which there are no applicable contract unit or job prices. Except as herein provided, damage to all work (including temporary construction), utilities, materials, equipment and plant shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer at the Contractor's expense, regardless of the cause of such damage.

1.8 TIME EXTENSIONS FOR UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER (31 OCT 1989)

This provision specifies the procedure for the determination of time extensions for unusually severe weather in accordance with the Clause DEFAULT (FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION) of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1. In order for the Contracting Officer to award a time extension under this clause, the following conditions must be satisfied:

a. The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must be found to be unusually severe; that is, more severe than the adverse weather anticipated for the project location during any given month.

b. The unusually severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

1.8.1 Contractor Responsibility

Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and continuing throughout the Contract, record on the daily CQC report the occurrence of adverse weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Actual adverse weather delay days must prevent work on critical activities for 50 percent or more of the Contractor's scheduled work day. Include the number of actual adverse weather delay days impacted by actual adverse weather (even if adverse weather occurred in previous month), be calculated chronologically from the first to the last day of each month, and be recorded as full days. If the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days anticipated in Section 00 33 50 WEATHER, WATER STAGE AND TIDE DATA (rounded to the nearest whole number), the Contracting Officer will convert any qualifying delays to calendar days, giving full consideration for equivalent fair weather work days, and issue a modification in accordance with the Clause DEFAULT (FIXED PRICE CONSTRUCTION) of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1.
