8. Contract Close-out Submittal

a. Refer to Section 01700, Contract Closeout Procedures, for additional requirements.

b. Near the completion of the construction submit the following documents, but not limited to:

1) Final payment request

2) Final statement of Contract sum

3) Final punch list

4) Consent of Surety

5) Liquidated damages settlement statement

6) Evidence of continuing insurance coverage

7) Project record documents

8) Operating and Maintenance Manuals

9) Test and Balance Reports for mechanical systems

10) Printed Warranties

11) Parts and maintenance materials

c. With the exception of the Operating and Maintenance Manuals, the review of the documents will take 1 or 2 days. The Operating and Maintenance Manuals should be reviewed in 10 working days or less. Under no circumstances will the construction contract be closed out or

100% of the funds turned over to the Contractor without these final submittals being received and approved.

B. Submittal Procedures

1. General

a. Make submittals from Contractor to the Owner after Contractor has reviewed each submittal and indicated his action thereon, except for samples and selection submittals.

b. For Type 3 submittals not provided within 20 working days after return of approved Product

Data submittals and Type 4 submittals, deliver submittals to Technical Representative at each weekly construction meeting in accordance with the submittal schedule noted below.

2. Scheduling

a. Prepare a separate listing and schedule, organized by related specification section number sequence, showing the principal work-related submittals and their initial submittal dates as required for coordination of the work. For Type 3 and Type 4 submittals, submit listing and schedule within five days after notice to proceed with construction or commencement of work.

b. Submit with Contractor’s construction schedule, a complete schedule of submittals.

1) Coordinate submittal schedule with the list of subcontracts, schedule of values and the list of products as well as the Contractor’s construction schedule.

2) Prepare the schedule in chronological order. Provide the following information:

a) Scheduled date for the first submittal

SUBMITTALS AND SHOP DRAWINGS 013300-6 S&TF Spill Recovery Replacement Automated Waste Neutralization

b) Related section number

c) Name of subcontractor

d) Description of the part of the work covered

e) Scheduled date for resubmittal

f) Scheduled date for Owner’s final release or approval

3. Schedule Updating

a. Revise the schedule after each meeting or activity, where revisions have been recognized or made.

b. Issue the updated schedule concurrently with report of each meeting.

4. Coordination

a. Coordinate the preparation and processing of submittals with the performance of construction activities. Transmit each submittal sufficiently in advance of performance of related construction activities to avoid delay.

b. Coordinate each submittal with fabrication, purchasing, testing, delivery, other submittals and related activities that require sequential activity.

c. Coordinate transmittal of different types of submittals for related elements of the Work so processing will not be delayed by the need to review submittals concurrently for coordination.

1) The Owner reserves the right to withhold action on a submittal requiring coordination with other submittals until all related submittals are received.

5. Processing:

a. To avoid the need to delay installation as a result of the time required to process submittals, allow sufficient time for submittal review, including time for resubmittals.

b. Partial submission or return of submittals are not acceptable.

c. Allow 10 working days for initial review. Allow additional time if processing must be delayed to permit coordination with subsequent submittals.

d. Normally one resubmission is allowed and should take place within 10 working days of the returned documents and the follow on review should take less than five working days. With the exception of the single copy held by the Owner, all five copies are returned to the

Contractor or vendor for correction. They are only distributed when all submittal items have been approved. Multiple submissions are not acceptable.

e. If an intermediate submittal is necessary, process the same as the initial submittal.

f. No extension of Contract Time will be authorized because of failure to transmit submittals to the Owner sufficiently in advance of the Work to permit processing.

6. Submittal Preparation:

a. Place a permanent label or title block on each submittal for identification. Indicate the name of the entity that prepared each submittal on the label or title block.

1) Provide a space approximately 4 by 5 inches (100 by 125 mm) on the label or beside the title block on Shop Drawings to record the Contractor's review and approval markings and the action taken.

2) Include the following information on the label for processing and recording action taken.

SUBMITTALS AND SHOP DRAWINGS 013300-7 S&TF Spill Recovery Replacement Automated Waste Neutralization

a) Project name.

b) Date.

c) Name and address of the Owner.

d) Name and address of the Contractor.

e) Name and address of the subcontractor.

f) Name and address of the supplier.

g) Name of the manufacturer.

h) Number and title of appropriate Specification Section.

i) Drawing number and detail references, as appropriate.

7. Submittal Transmittal:

a. Package each submittal appropriately for transmittal. Transmit each submittal from the

Contractor to the Owner using a transmittal form. Submittals received from sources other than the Contractor will be returned without action.

1) On the transmittal, record relevant information and requests for data. On the form, or separate sheet, record deviations from Contract Document requirements, including variations and limitations. Include Contractor's certification that information complies with

Contract Document requirements.

C. Submittal Matrix

1. The following Submittal Matrix is provided as a guide for preparing the submittal schedule, and as the submittal log basis.

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 REFERENCE STANDARDS

A. General

1. Reference standards are incorporated into the Specifications by referring to a number, title, or other designation of the standard referenced. The provisions of a standard so referenced are a part of the Section of the Specifications in which the reference is made, and thus part of the

Contract Documents, just as though the standard were duplicated in the Section in its entirety.

2. All references to codes, Specifications and Standards referred to in the Technical Specifications and on the Drawings shall mean the Latest Edition, Amendment and/or Revision of such

Referenced standard in effect as of the date of these Contract Documents unless otherwise specifically indicated.

B. The work of this Contract shall be completed under the applicable provisions of the following references including but not limited to:

C. Incorporation of Standards into the Specifications

REFERENCES 014200-3 S&TF Spill Recovery Replacement Automated Waste Neutralization

1. Part 1 - General, of a Section of the Specifications contains a list of the standards that are referenced in Part 2 - Products, and Part 3 - Execution, of the Section. The list is usually under a heading titled "References," and contains the following information:

a. The full names of the standards organizations that have authored the specified standards;

b. The initials or acronyms by which the respective organizations are referred in Parts 2 and 3 of the Section; and

c. The number/letter designations and full titles of the referenced standards.

2. The list in Part 1 is only a form of index; it is not the place where the standards are incorporated into the Section, unless there are words in that location, which specifically say so.

3. The reference standards listed in Part 1 are incorporated into the Section in Parts 2 and 3 (unless the specific wording to do so is included in Part 1, as mentioned in the preceding paragraph).

4. In Parts 2 and 3, the standard is generally referred to simply by the acronym of the authoring standards organization and the number/letter designation of the standard proper (e.g., ASTM

A36). The wording of the reference provision may be as explicit as, "Provide structural steel that complies with the provisions of ASTM A36", or it may only say, "Structural steel: ASTM A36".

Both approaches are of equal validity in making the standard a part of the Section.

5. Some Sections may not contain the Part I article "References." Lack of the article "References," or text of a similar intent, in a Section does not invalidate the incorporation into the Section of the standards, which may be referenced in Parts 2 or 3 of the Section.
