No separate or additional payment will be made for this work and/or services.

ARTICLE 1. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AT THE SITE / AS-BUILTS

1.01 The Contractor shall maintain at the Project site two (2) copies of all Plans, Specifications, Addenda, approved Shop Drawings, Change Orders and other Modifications, Schedules and Instructions, in good order. One copy is to be marked to record all changes made during construction. These shall always be available to the Project Engineer and the City or their authorized representatives. At the conclusion of construction, the Contractor is to turn one (1) corrected set of all documents over to the Project Engineer.

ARTICLE 2. CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS SCHEDULE

(3) copies of a complete Construction Progress Schedule which shall be comprised of a critical path method network. (At the same time, the Contractor shall submit the Schedule of Values, Sedimentation and Erosion Control Measures, Water Control Plan and Environmental Protection Plan, as outlined in the various Articles of these General Conditions).

2.02 The critical path of the Project must be identified on the Construction Progress Schedule which shall provide a workable plan for monitoring the progress of all the elements of the Project, establish and clearly display the critical elements of the Work, on which each part or division of the Work is expected to be started and completed, forecast completion of the elements of the Project, and match the Contract duration in time. The Construction Progress Schedule shall also indicate the logic of the work for the major elements and components of work under the Contract, such as the planned mobilization of plant and equipment, sequences of operations, procurement of materials and equipment, duration of activities, type of relationship, lag time (if any), and such other information as it is necessary to present a clear statement of the intended activities.

2.03 The Construction Progress Schedule shall, at a minimum, indicate the proposed scheduling of all major items of work and Project components. The schedule shall state the methods for doing each portion of the work and show the significant on-site construction activities with planned early/late start early/late completion dates and total float for each activity, including activities of the Contractor, subcontractors, fabricators, and suppliers to ensure adequate planning and communication. Activities shall include, the following items, as applicable: (a) milestone events; (b) seasonal weather limitations (c) the procurement and fabrication of materials, plant and equipment and any associated submittals; (d) the order in which the Contractor proposes to complete activities; (e) temporary structures or systems; (f) major construction or work zone traffic control stages; (g) activities assigned to Utilities, railroads and other parties; (h) activities assigned to the City and other State or municipal entities; (i) sampling and testing of materials; (j) settlement, surcharge or cure periods; (k) punch list work, (l) inspection activities assigned to the City, including final inspection and (m) all project closeout activities and requirements.

2.05 The Contractor shall perform the work of this Contract to satisfy the approved Construction Progress Schedule; however, the Project Engineer and City reserve the right to amend and alter the Construction Progress Schedule, as approved, at any time and in a manner which the Project Engineer deems to be in the best interests of the City. The latest version of the Construction Progress Schedule, as amended and approved by the Project Engineer, shall also be referred to as the "Current Construction Progress Schedule” or “Current Schedule.” The approval of the Construction Progress Schedule, or any revision thereof, shall in no way waive the requirements of the Contract nor shall it excuse the Contractor from any obligations under the Contract.

2.07 The Construction Progress Schedule shall forecast the times for doing each portion of the work.

The biweekly schedule shall clearly indicate all work planned on a crew basis for the two-week period.

c. Recovery Schedules: If completion of any part of the work, delivery of equipment or materials, or submission of submittals or required documentation is behind the approved Construction Progress Schedule and will impact the end date of the work past the Contract completion dates (create negative float), the Contractor shall submit in writing, a revised Construction Project Schedule acceptable to the City for completing the work on or before the current Contract completion dates.
