Department of Labor FPB, Washington, DC Work Restrictions

Dec 2015 5th Floor ILAB Renovation 011400 - 4

2. Rain Day. A potentially lost workday on which rainfall is equal to or greater than 0.10 inches.

3. Drying Day. A work day(s) immediately following a rainfall equal to or greater than 1.00 inch which is potentially lost because of wet ground conditions.

4. Workday. A day not excluded from work. There are currently no days that exclude the Contractor from working. Normal working days are M-F excluding weekends and holidays. Contractor personnel are permitted to work on weekends and holidays provided that proper coordination is completed.

5. Unusually Severe Weather. When the number of Actual Workdays Lost is greater than the calculated Total Lost Days for the month in question.

B. Reasonably Predictable Weather. Determine Reasonably Predictable Weather for this contract by completing Table 1. Calculate data for Table 1 as follows:

1. Using the last 10 years of historical weather data from the nearest NOAA weather data collection station, compute the average number of workdays lost (rain days plus drying days) for each month and the standard deviation from the average. Add the average number of workdays lost to the standard deviation.

2. The Total number of Lost Days (Average Workdays Lost plus 1 Standard Deviation, rounded to whole days) will be considered normal for each month.

3. Submit a completed Table 1 with the initial construction schedule.

C. Unusually Severe Weather. Under FAR clause 52.249-10, Default (Fixed-Price Construction), the Contractor can request time for delay due to Unusually Severe Weather. The number of Actual Work Days plus the actual Drying Days occurring in the month in question. From this total, deduct any workdays meeting the following conditions:

1. The Rain Day or Drying Day occurred on a non-work weekday such as a holiday.

2. Rainfall occurred at a time when no weather dependent work was in progress or occurred during planned or unplanned shutdowns due to other circumstances such as equipment failure, strikes, material supplies, delays, etc.

3. The Contractor was still working or able to work on weather dependent activities to the extent that less than 50 percent of the workday was lost due to weather.

If the net number of Actual Workdays Lost is greater that the Total Lost Days, then Unusually Severe Weather occurred during the month in question.

D. Time Adjustments for Rain Delays. If the net number of Actual Workdays Lost to rain is less than the total Lost Days for the month in question, no time adjustments will be made. If the net number of Actual Workdays Lost is more, then an excusable time extension may be granted. The Contractor must submit a Weather Time Impact Analysis supporting any alleged delays due to Unusually Severe Weather.

E. Delays Due To Other Weather Conditions. Delays due to other unusually severe weather conditions (snow, extreme cold or heat, high winds, etc.) must be supported with a Weather Time Impact Analysis using historical weather data.

F. Schedule. The contractor shall be required to submit a construction schedule.

1. The progress schedule shall reflect consideration of these anticipated adverse weather delays in all weather dependent activities.

2. Upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and continuing throughout the contract, the Contractor shall record on the Daily Contractor Production Report, the occurrence of adverse weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Actual adverse weather delays must prevent work on critical activities for 50 percent or more of the contractor’s scheduled workday.

3. Other Delays. In each instance when the site is closed to Contractor personnel as a result of inclement weather, potentially hazardous conditions, or other special circumstances, the Contractor shall direct its staff as necessary to take actions such as reporting to its home office or taking appropriate leave consistent with its policies. Each instance shall be recorded on the Daily Production Report as a Lost Workday.
