d. Examination of Plans, Specifications, and Work Site. It is understood that a Bidder, before submitting a bid, has made a careful examination of all plans, specifications and Contract documents, that the Bidder has a complete understanding of the quality and quantity of materials and the character of the work required; and that the Bidder has made a careful examination of the location and conditions of the worksite and the sources of supply for materials.

It is further understood that a bid awarded hereunder is subject to EWEB being able to

(1) comply with all zoning ordinances, or obtain rezoning of the property where necessary; and (2) comply with local building code restrictions and conditions for the structure or structures contemplated in the bid, any or all of which conditions may be contained in the Contract and may result in termination of the Contract, if such conditions are not satisfied. EWEB will in no case be responsible for any loss or for any unanticipated costs that may be incurred by the Contractor as a result of the Contractor's failure to acquire full information about work conditions prior to submitting an offer to perform the work.

e. Substitutions. When a brand name is required by the specifications, all Bidders shall provide the specified product unless an alternative product is allowed per the specifications and in which case, must be of equal quality, merit and utility (as determined in EWEB's sole judgment). Bidders may be required to provide information to EWEB to determine product acceptability prior to award of Contract.

f. Interpretation of Contract Documents. If a Bidder finds discrepancies in errors or omissions from the plans, specifications, or Contract documents, or has doubt as to their meaning, the Bidder shall at once notify EWEB.

g. Protest or Request for Clarification/Changes of Specifications and/or Bidding

Requirements (EWEB Rule 5-0260).

Questions and responses that present material information to all Bidders will be posted via formal, written Addendum.

Unless stated differently in the bidding document, this written request for change must be received by the Purchasing Contact indicated in the solicitation document no later than ten (10) days prior to the bid closing date.

h. Filling in Bid Forms. The bid response shall be made on the form provided in the

Invitation to Bid (Section 00400) and as prescribed by EWEB. The Bidder may not alter, modify or change the bid form, except as directed by bid Addendum. Any other form of offer is invalid.

Bids may be rejected if they contain any recapitulation or restating of the work to be done, disclaimers, exceptions or other limitations or stipulations.

i. Bids are Offers. The bid is the Bidder's offer to enter into a contract, which, if the bid is accepted for award, binds the Bidder to a contract and the terms and conditions contained in the Invitation to Bid. A Bidder shall not make the bid contingent upon EWEB's acceptance of specifications or Contract terms that conflict with or are in addition to those required in the bid Documents (except as noted in Time for Bid Acceptance, Section 1.3(g) below).

j. Proprietary Information/Public Disclosure. Materials submitted in response to this

Invitation to Bid and/or the Contract shall become the property of EWEB and are, therefore, subject to public records laws.

In the event that a Bidder desires to claim that portions of its submittal are exempt from public disclosure, under the provisions of ORS 192.501, it is incumbent upon the Bidder to identify those portions in a transmittal letter. The transmittal letter must identify the page and the particular exemption(s) from disclosure upon which the claim is made.

Each page claimed to be exempt from disclosure must be clearly identified, on the page, by the words: "This data constitutes a trade secret under ORS 192.501(2), and shall not be disclosed except in accordance with the Oregon Public Records Law, ORS 192.

If EWEB receives a request for public records disclosure of the information so designated as confidential by Bidder, EWEB will make a reasonable attempt to notify Bidder of the request so Bidder/Contractor may claim any exemption Bidder is entitled to under applicable laws.

The Oregon Public Records Law exempts from disclosure trade secrets, and the exemption from disclosure applies "unless the public interest requires disclosure in the particular instance," ORS 192.501(2). Therefore, non-disclosure of documents or any portion of a document submitted as part of this solicitation may depend upon official or judicial determinations made pursuant to the Oregon Public Records Law.

In any event, EWEB will, to the fullest extent permitted by Oregon Law, assist the Bidder in protecting proprietary information submitted pursuant to this Invitation to Bid.
