D. For buried non-metallic lines and structures also provide a tracer wire placed just above them, so conventional locating equipment may be used to locate the lines or structures. These items may be made of plastic, fiberglass, or similar non-metallic material. Design basis of the tracer wire is BMS Heavy Tracer Wire by Utilitronics, PO Box 480, Stoughton, MA 02072 -phone 1-800-245-8850.

Contracting Officer (TRCO) before construction. Provide additional views as directed to show the full extent of the work. Provide for approval an identical set of "after" views.

B. Underground Utilities: For projects where there is trenching for any underground utilities, even if just laterals from outside equipment into mech-elec rooms, take an additional set of as-built photos after construction for approval before final inspection. These must cover the entire length of the trenching with a view to showing nearby landmarks to enable a person to locate the line in the field in the future by using the photos after the disturbed soil is no longer visible.

3.06 SITE MAINTENANCE, CLEAN UP, AND RESTORATION

1.11.A Pre-Award - DB Schedule With Bid ___

1.11.B Pre-Award - DB Design Firm With Bid ___

1.11.C Pre-Award - DB Subs With Bid ___

1.03 SUBMITTAL INSTRUCTIONS: Each Specification Section lists the submittal requirements unique to it. The following apply to all sections.

A. Submittal Forms. Material submittals shall be made using AF Form 3000. For design-build (DB) projects, all design submittals only require a transmittal letter. Material submittals included with DB design packages do not require the use of the AF Form 3000, but they are considered part of the design package.

B. Material Submittals:

1. Complete Submissions: All items requiring submittals for each section shall be provided at one time. Partial submittals will be returned without approval. No time extensions will be granted for failure to comply. In some instances the specifications may require certain items from one or more specifications sections to be submitted at one time. For example, condensing units and air handler submittals may be required to be provided together.

2. Submittal Checklist: The contractor shall complete a copy of the checklist provided in the submittals paragraph of each specification section. This checklist shall be provided with each submittal. Submittal information shall be arranged in order to correspond with each checklist.

3. Time: The Contractor shall have approved submittals before ordering any equipment under this contract. If equipment is ordered prior to receiving approval, it will be solely at the

Contractor’s risk. Under no circumstances will material be installed prior to approval of submittals. There will be no time schedule for providing material submittals unless noted elsewhere in the specifications. The Contractor will be required to manage his materials/equipment lead times and obtain approval in sufficient time to complete the work on schedule. Disapproval of incomplete or unsatisfactory submittals shall not be grounds for contract extensions. Other submittals such as as-builts, test reports, etc., shall be provided as indicated.

4. Manufacturer’s Data: When the specifications contain an “X” under the “Manufacturer’s

Data Required” field of the submittals paragraph checklist, then the submission of manufacturer’s data is required. If an “X” is in the “Certificate of Compliance” field, then it becomes the Contractor’s option to submit manufacturer’s data or a Certificate of Compliance as

01300 - Page 3 of 6 detailed below.

5. Exceptions: If any material proposed for use on this contract deviates from the specifications, the Contractor shall submit those proposed deviations for approval along with detailed justification. All exceptions and deviations shall be described in detail with each product submittal. Cost will not be considered a justification for taking exceptions unless a credit is offered to the Government.

6. Substitutions: Products provided by manufacturers other than those specified as the “design basis” shall be considered substitutions.

a. All features of items submitted as substitutions are implied to be in full compliance with Specifications and Drawings if not specifically noted as "Exceptions."

b. Where a design basis is referenced in Specifications and Drawings, substitutions must meet or exceed the salient features of the design basis as determined by the Technical

Representative of the Contracting Officer. Exceptions to design basis characteristics must be clearly noted as "Exceptions." Note: The Federal Acquisition Regulations place the burden of proving the substitute as equal or better on the contractor.

c. Changes required to accommodate approved substitution shall be made at no additional cost to the Government. For example, an approved motor substitution may require upsized electrical cable and conduit.

7. Certificate of Compliance: The Contractor may, at his option, submit a “Certificate of

Compliance” (COC) in lieu of providing manufacturer’s catalog cuts/data. Only one COC will be required per specification section. Submit three copies of each COC package. The COC must be signed by the contractor and either the supplier or the manufacturer. The COC letter is attached at the end of this specification section. The letter must be completed in full.

C. Other Submittals: Other submittals such as samples, test results, spare parts, etc., shall be provided as required by each specifications section. Provide 4 copies of each unless directed otherwise.

1.04 RETURN AND DISAPPROVAL OF SUBMITTALS: This is a routine project. The Contracting

Officer will return submittals made with AF Form 3000 to the Contractor within 14 days after receipt, using the AF Form 3000 to show approval or disapproval. Resubmit revisions of disapproved submittals within 14 days after receipt of disapproval, again using AF Form 3000. Disapproval shall not be cause for time extension.

1.05 SUPERINTENDENT:

A. When requested, provide name and qualifications for review. Designate a competent person who shall have full authority to act for the Contractor and who shall be the primary contact with the

Government until project acceptance. The superintendent is a non-working site supervisor/manager who shall be on site at all times when any Contractor personnel are on site. The “site” is defined as the location where construction work is being done. The Government through the Contracting Officer or

Technical Representative of the Contracting Officer (CEC Inspector) reserves the right to shut down all

Contractor site activities if the superintendent is not on site at such times. Site work shall not resume until the superintendent has returned to the site. Several violations of this requirement are cause for termination for default.

01300 - Page 4 of 6

B. If the FAR clause requiring the formal Superintendent is not included in the contract, then the

Contractor shall have a designated work leader or foreman on site during all occasions when there are two or more personnel on site.
