(c) CONTRACTOR has studied carefully and considered in its bid the Plans and

Specifications, performed necessary observations and examinations, and studied the physical conditions at the site related to underground facilities, utility installations, conflicts, relocations

(temporary and permanent), and all other underground facilities and utility related conditions of the work and site that may affect cost, progress, scheduling, or any aspect of performance of the work, and that its bid reflects all such conditions. CONTRACTOR, by submitting its bid and executing this Agreement, acknowledges the constructability of the work under the Plans and

Specifications. CONTRACTOR, by its study, excludes and releases COUNTY from any implied warranties, including, but not limited to the Spearin Doctrine, and acknowledges that the Plans and

Specifications are adequate to perform the work.

Documents. CONTRACTOR does not and will not require any additional examinations, investigations, tests, reports, or similar data for such purposes.

(e) CONTRACTOR has correlated the results of all such observations, examinations, investigations, tests, reports, and data with the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents.

(f) CONTRACTOR has provided COUNTY written notice of all conflicts, errors, or discrepancies that CONTRACTOR has discovered in the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR hereby accepts COUNTY’s written resolution of all such conflicts, errors, or discrepancies.

Contract Documents will not operate as a waiver by COUNTY of strict compliance with the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents.

Contract Documents fulfills a COUNTY, CONTRACTOR, and public purpose. To that end, CONTRACTOR shall respond to citizen complaints related to alleged damage caused by

CONTRACTOR’s performance of the work within ten (10) days of receipt of the complaint from any citizen, ENGINEER, or COUNTY. CONTRACTOR shall respond separately to each complaint. When a complaint is brought to CONTRACTOR by a citizen, CONTRACTOR shall report the citizen, the street address, and a summary of the complaint and any action taken in response.
