The Quality Control Plan shall be approved by the Government prior to commencement of work. This Quality Control Plan shall include all phases of the construction process from material ordering through project completion. The plan should ensure that all components of construction meet industry standards. This plan will remain in effect for the life of the contract. The Contractor shall maintain adequate Quality Control capabilities regardless of the volume of workload. The Government reserves the right to request any necessary changes to the Quality Control Plan during the life of the contract. Individual Quality Control Plans will not be required for each TO.

If the Contractor damages any of the items indicated, he shall be responsible for prompt repair of the damage to return the item to its original workable condition.

B. Excavations for street and existing utility will also include the following requirements unless waived by the Contracting Officer. Prior to the start of work, all valve locations will be identified/located so the utility can be shut off in the event of accidental damage. To preclude accidental damage, the Contractor shall locate the exact location of all marked utilities by hand digging at least three foot (3') on each side of the marked utility prior to any excavation with power equipment. Any utilities discovered during excavations that are not shown on the drawings or staked by the government will be marked on the contract drawings and will be identified on the Contractor's as-built drawings.

14. Pre-Final and Final Inspection:

A. The government normally will not perform a pre-final inspection of work accomplished on Task Orders. The Contractor may request a pre-final inspection for the purpose of having the government assist in identifying potential problems prior to the final inspection but the government has the right to deny the request.
