DEFINITIONS: (i) "Contract" means the entire written agreement between the parties, including, but not limited to the Invitation to Bid or Request for Proposal and its specifications, terms, and conditions, solicitation instructions, solicitation addenda and contract amendments, if any, and the purchase order or price agreement document. (ii) "Contractor" means a person or organization with whom Clackamas River Water has contracted for the purchase of goods or goods and services.

2. STANDARD AND SPECIAL TERMS. In addition to the terms and conditions contained herein, there may also be special terms and conditions in an Invitation to Bid or Request for Proposal, if one is issued, which apply to this contract.

In the event of conflict, the following shall be the order of priority in resolving conflict: a) language contained in any amendment or modification, b) the language in any special terms or conditions established by the specifications, bid or proposal documents issued by CRW, c) these terms and conditions, d) the Invitation to Bid or Request for Proposal, and e) the Contractor’s proposal or purchase order terms and conditions.

3. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR STATUS. This contract is not intended and nothing contained herein shall be construed to create the relationship of agent, servant, employee, partnership, joint venture, or association between CRW and Contractor, but is rather an agreement between independent parties, these being CRW and the Contractor.

5. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this contract is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or in conflict with any law, the validity of the remaining terms and provisions shall not be affected, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced as if the contract did not contain the particular provision held to be invalid.

(abandoned or live). The Developer/Contractor may be required to remove abandoned waterlines for the purpose of installation of new lines in same trench, or to support communication or other utility lines for new alignments.

b. Piping shall be installed without springing or forcing the pipe in a manner which would set up stresses in the pipe, valves, or connected equipment. (See table 1 below).

i. Contractor shall complete the assembly of each length of piping before laying the next length in the trench, including pushing pipe in place and completing joint connections.

c. Straight runs of piping upstream and downstream of flow measuring devices shall be smooth for the required lengths per manufacturer’s recommendations, as applicable.
