For this project, the Liquidated Damages will be $5.00 per day.
Due account shall be taken of any adjustment of the contract time for completion of the work granted under the provisions of subsection 8.5 of the General Conditions for Capital Construction. Permitting the Contractor to continue and finish the work or any part thereof after elapse of contract time will not operate as a waiver on the part of the Division on any of its rights under the Contract.
Any deduction assessed as liquidated damages under this section shall not relieve the Contractor from liability for any damages or costs resulting from delays to other contractors on the project or other projects caused by a failure of the assessed Contractor to complete the work according to contract times.

Colorado (UNCC) or “Common Ground Alliance” (CGA) – the “Call Before You Dig” number – at 811. Utility owners have three business days to perform locates. If facilities are not marked within the three business days, you are required to call back to UNCC and process a Second Notice Request. UNCC encourages both Contractors and Sub-Contractors to obtain a locate ticket. A “no response” from the utility owner does not allow the Contractor to start digging. Notify the Project Manager when working near utility lines or appurtenances.
V. Aquatic concerns and equipment cleaning:
For this project; If heavy equipment is acquired or used that was previously working in another stream, river, lake, pond, or wetland, one of the following disinfection practices is necessary prior to construction to prevent the spread of New Zealand mud snails and other aquatic hitchhikers into this drainage. The practice is also necessary after project completion, prior to this equipment being used in another stream, river, lake, pond, or wetland, for the same purpose:
• Remove all mud and debris from equipment (tracks, turrets, buckets, drags, teeth, etc.) and spray/soak equipment a 1:15 solution of Super HDQ Neutral institutional cleaner and water. Keep equipment moist for at least 10 minutes
