A bidder may withdraw his bid from consideration if the price bid was substantially lower than the other bids due solely to a mistake in the bid, provided the bid was submitted in good faith, and the mistake was a clerical mistake as opposed to a judgment mistake, and was actually due to an unintentional arithmetic error or an unintentional omission of a quantity of work, labor or

This notice to the Owner must be accompanied with his original work papers, documents, and materials used in the preparation of the bid.

Such mistake shall be proved only from the original work papers, documents, and materials delivered to the Owner as required herein.

Failure of bidder to submit his original work papers, documents, and materials used in the preparations of this bid at the time, date and place required, shall constitute a waiver of bidders’ right to claim a mistake in his bid.

No bid shall be withdrawn under this section when the result would be the awarding of the

Contract on another bid of the same bidder.

No bidder who is permitted to withdraw a bid shall for compensation, supply any material or labor to or perform any subcontract or other work agreement for the person or firm to whom the

Contract is awarded or otherwise benefit directly or indirectly from the performance of the

Project for which the withdrawn bid was submitted.

If the bid is withdrawn under authority of this section, the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder shall be deemed to be the low bidder on the Project.

Construction", AIA Document A201, Fifteenth Edition, 2007. Where a portion of the

General Conditions is modified or deleted by these Supplemental Conditions, the unaltered portions of the General Conditions shall remain in full force and effect.

Delete Subparagraph 2.2.1 in its entirety.

Add the following subparagraph 3.10.4:

3.10.4 Contract time adjustments for abnormal inclement weather will be based upon the

SUPPLEMENTAL CONDITIONS 000800 - 2

following requirements:

3.10.4.1 Contractor agrees that Dates under this Contract will not be extended due to normal inclement weather. For a time extension to be granted for abnormal inclement weather: (1) such weather must, in the judgment of the Architect, actually have an adverse effect upon the progress of the Contractor’s work which is of a critical nature; and (2) in the judgment of the Architect, the adverse effect must not be due to any fault or negligence of

Contractor and could not have been avoided by Contractor through proper planning, coordination, and implementation of adequate weather protection necessary to allow the

Work to be continued. Contractor agrees that the fact that abnormal inclement weather may occur, does not, of itself, justify any time extension hereunder.

3.10.4.2 Contractor agrees that it shall not be entitled to a time extension for normal inclement weather which can be expected at the Project locale due to precipitation, based on actual data from the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric

Administration (NOAA) for the locale of the Project. Contractor acknowledges and warrants that in making its bid and Construction Schedule for the Work, it gave due care and consideration to this expected number of work days of inclement weather for the locale of the

Project and allowed therefore the impact of inclement weather on subsequent work. During the time of performance, should the expected number of work days of inclement weather for the locale of the Project be less than originally anticipated by Contractor and Owner, at the time of contracting, those days not so affected by inclement weather shall be considered float time.

January 8 July 4

February 8 August 4

March 8 September 4

April 6 October 4

May 4 November 4

June 4 December 6

3.10.4.3 Time extensions for weather delays during a given month will be allowed only for actual work days lost in excess of the anticipated number of work days lost (listed above) and only when those excess lost days adversely impact the current critical path(s) leading to the specified Substantial Completion or Contract Completion dates. Actual work days lost are defined as days that work was prevented on critical path activities for fifty percent (50%) or more of the Contractor’s scheduled workday.

3.10.4.4 Within fourteen (14) calendar days after the end of a given month, the

Contractor must submit its time extension request for any weather related delays along with supporting data. For instance, if the contractor requests a time extension for weather related delays during March, the request is due on April 14. If the extension request is not submitted within the aforementioned timeframe, the Contractor shall have waived any and all rights it may have against the Owner.

Add the following subparagraph 3.10.5:

SUPPLEMENTAL CONDITIONS 000800 - 3

3.10.5 The Contractor shall submit an updated construction schedule monthly with his application for payment. The revised schedule will demonstrate a strategy for overcoming any variances in the previous month's schedule in order to complete the project on time. Pay requests will not be reviewed unless accompanied by the update schedule.

Documents even if not indicated on the submittals that have been approved by the Architect.

Amend subparagraph 3.12.8 by adding the following to the end of the paragraph:

Failure to so notify the Architect in writing of such deviations shall constitute just cause for rejection of samples and Shop Drawings, including all finished work resulting therefrom, at any time during the construction and up through the prescribed guarantee period. The

Architect's approval of samples and Shop Drawings is made with the understanding that such

Shop Drawings and samples conform with, and do not deviate from the Contract Documents unless Architect is so informed in writing at the time of submittal thereof.
