The submission of a proposal will be considered prima facie evidence that the offerer has made such examination and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered in performing the work. It is the obligation of the offerer to make their own interpretation of the site subsurface conditions as to the nature and extent of the work, including materials to be excavated. For access to the site, contact the Contracting Officer indicated in the solicitation.

1.2 TIME FOR COMPLETION

A. The work shall be completed within the time period defined in the General Contract.

1.3 ACTUAL DAMAGES

A. Contractor and his sureties shall be liable for any damages to the Government resulting from his refusal or failure to complete the work within the time fixed in the contract or any extensions thereof, pursuant to the clause of this contract entitled, "AMS Clause 3.10.6-6, Default (Fixed price Construction)."

1.4 DRAWINGS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND OTHER CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

D. The Contractor must maintain at the Site at all times at least one (1) copy of Drawings, GENERAL PARAGRAPHS 01 00 00 - 2

Specifications and all other Contract Documents, together with at least one (1) complete set of approved Shop Drawings, approved samples, and a set of marked-up As-Built drawings.

E. The Contractor must make available at the job site one copy of each referenced standard (or as directed by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR), for the Contractor’s and the FAA’s use during the time that work is covered by the standard.

F. The Contract, Drawings, Specifications, and all referenced standards cited are essential parts of the Contract requirements. A requirement occurring in one is as binding as though occurring in all. They are intended to be complementary and to describe and provide for a complete work.

G. On the drawings, calculated or figured dimensions govern over scaled dimensions.

H. In the event of a conflict between commercially available or industry standard documents and specific requirements in FAA Orders and Notices, the more stringent shall apply.

I. The Contractor must not take advantage of any apparent error, omission, discrepancy, or ambiguity on the Drawings or Specifications. If any error, omission, discrepancy, or ambiguity is found by the Contractor in the Drawings or Specifications, the Contractor must refer the same to the Contracting Officer (CO) prior to beginning work on affected task(s), for interpretation and decision, and such decision must be final.

J. The CO has the right to correct apparent errors or omissions in the Drawings and Specifications and to make such interpretations as he may deem necessary for the proper fulfillment of the Contract Documents. During the course of the work, should any conflicts, ambiguities, or discrepancies be found that are not addressed or any discrepancies between the Drawings and the Specifications to which the Contractor has failed to call attention before submitting the offer, then the CO will interpret the intent of the Drawings and Specifications and the Contractor hereby agrees to abide by the CO’s interpretation and agrees to carry out the work in accordance with the decision of the CO.

1.7 USE OF PREMISES

A. Use of Site: Limit use of premises to areas within the Contract limits indicated. Do not disturb portions of Project site beyond areas in which the Work is indicated.

1.8 FAA'S ACCEPTANCE REQUIREMENTS

A. FAA Acceptance of Completed Areas of Construction: FAA reserves the right to place and install equipment in completed areas of the project, before Substantial Completion, provided such installation does not interfere with completion of the Work. Such placement of equipment shall not constitute acceptance of the total Work.

1.9 WORK RESTRICTIONS

A. Normal working hours are 0700 to 1600, Monday through Friday (except U.S. Federal holidays). Contractor requests to work outside normal working hours require COR approval.

However, the COR has full discretion to approve or disapprove, or withdraw approval of

SUMMARY OF WORK 01 10 00 - 3

requests. If the contractor desires to work outside normal hours (including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays), he shall submit his written request to the COR at least 48 hours in advance.

Some typical constraints on working outside normal working hours are:

1. The Contractor’s request must be made at least two days in advance (e.g., request received by close of business Wednesday for work on following Saturday). Prior to submitting the request, the Contractor must coordinate as needed (such as utility outages) and have all required people and materials for the work that will be performed.

2. A Contractor with quality or safety problems (as determined by the COR) will be restricted to normal working hours. Contractors may also not work time outside of normal working hours if they are not present on the job site during normal working hours.

3. A Contractor who fails to correct deficiencies within a reasonable time (as determined by the COR) will be restricted to normal working hours or may be allowed to work outside normal working hours only to correct those deficiencies.

4. The Contractor shall schedule his work to cause the least amount of interference to normal activities.

B. Airport Work: This project will require work in the AOA. Hours of this Work must be coordinated by the Contractor with the FAA and Airport Authority. Those working hours may be other than Normal Working hours as shown above will most likely be limited to night time work (e.g., 2200 to 0600, the next day). By submission of Bid, the Contractor acknowledges this restriction on working hours within the AOA. The Contractor further acknowledges responsibility for badges and fees for all workers and vehicles requiring access to the AOA. The construction schedule and cost proposal must account for any lead time and fees required to obtain necessary badges and permits.

C. Existing Utility Interruptions: Do not interrupt utilities serving facilities occupied by FAA or others unless permitted under the following conditions and then only after arranging to provide temporary utility services according to requirements indicated:

1. Existing Utility Interruptions: Do not interrupt utilities serving facilities occupied by FAA or others unless permitted under the following conditions and then only after arranging to provide temporary utility services according to requirements indicated: Notify FAA COR not less than 10 days in advance of proposed utility interruptions.

2. Do not proceed with utility interruptions without FAA and utility company written permission.

D. Limits on Operations: The FAA has established dates for construction activity at critical facilities including the Charlotte-Douglas International Airport. The intent is to minimize the possibility of any activity that may have an adverse impact on the ability of FAA to perform its operational activities. Moratorium dates may change without notice. The moratorium dates are generally:

· September 10 thru 12

· November – Friday before Thanksgiving through Monday after Thanksgiving

· December/January – Friday before Christmas through Monday after New Years

SUMMARY OF WORK 01 10 00 - 4

All construction activity during moratorium periods must be approved in advance by the FAA.

Submit items of work to be performed during moratorium dates no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the moratorium dates. Activities that have, in the sole opinion of the FAA, potential to negatively impact FAA operations will not be approved. A written waiver will be provided by FAA to the Contractor outlining the allowable work items. No additional time or cost will be allowed for such denial.

1.11 SPECIFICATION FORMATS AND MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

A. Specification Format: The Specifications are organized into Divisions and Sections using the 50-division format and CSI/CSC's "MasterFormat" numbering system.

Pre-Construction Environmental and Occupational Safety and Health Checklist

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING FAA FORM 3900-18

Section A. Purpose. FAA Form 3900-18, Pre-Construction Environmental and Occupational Safety and Health (EOSH) Checklist, is intended to be used to review construction, installation, and maintenance activities involving construction prior to commencement of work that potentially has EOSH impacts on NAS operations and employees. The organization that directly manages the construction project is responsible for completing the checklist. They shall coordinate with the appropriate District Office prior to commencement of the project. Actual work on the project (i.e., construction) may not be initiated prior to completion and review of the checklist. The form must be used, as appropriate, during critical phases of the work (e.g., during a mandatory pre-construction meeting). Emphasis should be placed on using this checklist as a tool to assess as well as reassess hazards as the work progresses.

1. Responsibilities: Responsibility for submitting the checklist may fall on several individuals depending on the work being performed.

a. For example, the District Office Manager will be responsible for District Office projects.

b. The engineer for Engineering Services projects.

c. The FMP manager for Field Maintenance Program (FMP) projects.

d. For turnkey projects managed by Headquarters organizations, the Headquarters program office will be responsible for submitting the checklist.

Section B. Work Summary Information. The individual/organization initiating the checklist will complete this portion of the checklist.

1. District Office: Name of the District Office.

2. Work Location: City, State, Airport, building, room within building.

3. Facility: Facility type, associated runway, facility ID.

4. Work Description: Provide a concise statement as to the nature of the work to be accomplished. Example:

Asbestos abatement of the control room attic.

5. Originator of Work: This is the individual/organization responsible for initiating the work (e.g., project engineer, senior engineer, technical support office).

6. Planned Start Date: Provide the expected start date of the work.

7. Expected Completion Date: Provide the expected completion date of the work.

8. Contractor Contact: Provide the name and telephone/pager number for a contractor representative who has the authority to make decisions and implement stop work/change orders. If the work is being accomplished by an FAA employee(s) or FAA contract employee(s), provide the name, organization, and telephone/pager number of the on-site lead (e.g., work order carrier, etc.).

9. Project/Design Representative: Provide the name for the designer of the work (e.g., Engineering Services project engineer, District Office engineer, Headquarters program manager for turnkey projects).

10. COTR/Specialist: Provide the name, organization, and telephone/pager number of the on-site lead (e.g., COTR, work order carrier).

FAA Form 3900-18 (03/13) Electronic Version (PDF) Page 1 of 8

11. District Office EOSH Contact: Provide the name and telephone/pager number of the person responsible for the occupational safety and health/environmental program for the District Office (e.g., SECM, District Office OSH Professional).

12. Facility Representative: Provide the name and telephone number for an ATO representative at the facility who has the authority to make decisions for facility management.

Section C. Evaluation: The District Office Manager or designee will determine whether the work will have a potential EOSH impact to NAS operations. The District Office Manager or designee must sign and date this section. If there is an impact (yes), complete the checklist. If there is no impact, proceed to Section I, Distribution of Copies, for distribution only.

Section D. Facility Procedures: The individuals/organization performing the work, and their contractors, along with the facility POC, must review all applicable facility specific procedures and plans.

1. Asbestos Contingency Plan: Determine the responsibilities of the personnel doing the work in the event of an incident that requires implementation of the asbestos contingency plan.

2. Hazard Communications: The personnel performing the work must be made familiar with the facility hazard communication program. Information such as material safety data sheets (MSDS) must be shared between the facility and the personnel performing the work.

3. Lockout/Tagout (LOTO): The work must be performed in accordance with the facility LOTO program.

Determine if the facility LOTO procedures require equipment to be locked out/tagged out by an FAA technician, or if the personnel performing the work will be allowed to LOTO the equipment.

4. Energized Work Permits: Applicable FAA facility, District Office, or regional energized work permits must be submitted by the individuals/organization performing the work, signed and posted at the work site. General note:

All work permits should be included in this document (e.g., hot work permit, welding, cutting, brazing).

5. Emergency Plans: Describe the responsibilities, including the points of contact, in the event of an incident that requires implementation of the facility Occupant Emergency Plan.

6. Impacts to Fire Alarm and Suppression Systems: Identify the Fire Alarm and Suppression System and instructions to avoid unintentional impact to it. If the work involves intentional impact to the Fire Alarm and Suppression System, determine what coordination has to be done to ensure no disruption of the NAS. Determine what interim life safety measures will be required during the project.

7. Confined Space Entry: Describe the facility procedures used in and around confined spaces. In addition, describe specific procedures for permit-required confined space in and around where the work will take place.
