The acknowledgment form mandates that contractors provide only materials compliant with CCUA's specifications, details, and Approved Materials Manual, with manholes designed according to CCUA Standard Details. Contractors are responsible for correction, removal, and replacement of all non-compliant items at their own expense.

Contractors must submit executed acknowledgments from each individual supplier before material installation. The total connection charges for the project amount to $27,670.30, which includes potable water capacity charge, alternative water supply surcharge, wastewater capacity charge, and environmental impact charges. Contractors must have been in business for a minimum of five years performing similar work and are required to provide a 5% bid bond and comprehensive insurance coverage including commercial general liability, business automobile liability, workers' compensation, and property coverage.
