This information must be received by COUNTY within five (5) Days of Bidder receiving the written request. Submittals requested pursuant to this subsection are in addition to those required elsewhere in these documents.

SECTION 4. EXAMINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS AND SITE.

4.1 Before submitting a Bid, each Bidder must: (a) examine the Contract Documents thoroughly; (b) visit the site to familiarize himself with local conditions that may in any manner affect cost, progress or performance of the Work including, but not limited to, weather and climatological data relating to the Seminole County area; (c) familiarize himself with federal, state and local laws, ordinance, rules, regulations and policies that may in any manner affect cost, progress or performance of the Work; (d) study and carefully correlate Bidder's observations with the Contract Documents; (e) make written requests for interpretations promptly after discovering any conflicts, errors, ambiguities or inconsistencies; and (f) contact all utilities and others who may be working at the Project site, including COUNTY owned utilities, prior to submitting a Bid in order to determine the extent to which utility installations, utility relocations or adjustments (temporary and permanent) will impact the CONTRACTOR's responsibility to schedule, coordinate and sequence the CONTRACTOR's Work with the work of the COUNTY, utility work, and the work of others at the Project site.

4.2 Reports of investigations and tests of subsurface and physical conditions at the site affecting cost, progress or performance of the Work which have been relied upon by ENGINEER OF RECORD in preparing the Plans and Specifications should be examined by the Bidder.

COUNTY shall provide such reports, if available, to any Bidder requesting them. These reports

00010 – Instructions to Bidders (Rev 082020) CC-4508-24/GCM Lake Monroe Trail Loop - Phase 1 are not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness. If this information is used by Bidder in preparing a bid, Bidder shall assume all risks resulting from actual conditions differing from the conditions set out in the reports.

4.3 When a log of test borings showing a record of the data obtained by the investigation of subsurface conditions by the COUNTY, the ENGINEER OF RECORD or their Consultants, is included with the Plans or other documents, it is expressly understood and agreed that said log of test borings represents only the opinion of the COUNTY, or the ENGINEER OF RECORD or their Consultants as to the character of the materials encountered by them in the test borings.

The Bidder acknowledges that the Project and the CONTRACTOR's Work may involve significant utility installations and that utility relocation (temporary and permanent) may be significant and cause delays. Some utility facilities may need to be relocated and adjusted concurrently with the CONTRACTOR's Work, while some Work may be required above, adjacent to, and around utility facilities that are in-use and will remain in place.

4.5 On request, COUNTY will attempt to provide each Bidder reasonable access to the site to conduct such investigations and tests as Bidder deems necessary for submission of Bid.
