If arrangements will be made for someone to cover the shift, these persons must be approved in advance by the Lake Manager and must meet the required bonding and insurance requirements.

1.18 TERMINATION: Failure of the Contractor to provide items in full and to provide complete services listed in the contract specifications and applicable specific park sheets may be grounds for termination.
