C&D waste includes products of demolition or removal, excess or unusable construction materials, packaging materials for construction products, and other materials generated during the construction process but not incorporated into the Work.

The Contractor shall be required to divert at least 50 percent (by weight) of the C&D waste from going to a landfill. An exemption for a lower diversion rate shall be allowed if it becomes cost prohibitive to transport the waste a long distance to a recycling center. Specifically, recycling centers farther than 50 miles from GSFC will be considered cost prohibitive.

Submit a C&D Waste Management Plan after receiving the first task order.

The plan shall state whether the Contractor plans to segregate C&D waste on-site for delivery to recycling centers and landfills, or transport the co-mingled waste off-site to a segregation facility. The plan shall include the name of the segregation and recycling facilities the Contractor plans to use.

Variations from Contract requirements require both Designer of Record (DOR) and Government approval pursuant to Contract Clause FAR 52.236-21 and will be considered where advantageous to Government.

1.8.1 Considering Variations

Discussion with Government prior to submission, after consulting with the DOR, will help ensure functional and quality requirements are met and minimize rejections and re-submittals. When contemplating a variation which results in lower cost, consider submission of the variation as a Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP).

Specifically point out variations from Contract requirements in transmittal letters. Failure to point out deviations may result in the Government requiring rejection and removal of such work at no additional cost to the Government.

1.8.2 Proposing Variations

When proposing variation, deliver written request to the Government, with documentation of the nature and features of the variation and why the variation is desirable and beneficial to Government, including the DOR's written analysis and approval. If lower cost is a benefit, also include an estimate of the cost savings. In addition to documentation required

SECTION 01 33 00 Page 10 for variation, include the submittals required for the item. Clearly mark the proposed variation in all documentation.

1.8.3 Warranting that Variations are Compatible

When delivering a variation for approval, Contractor, including its Designer(s) of Record, warrants that this Contract has been reviewed to establish that the variation, if incorporated, will be compatible with other elements of work.

1.8.4 Review Schedule is Modified

In addition to normal submittal review period, a period of 10 working days will be allowed for consideration by the Government of submittals with variations.

1.9 SUBMITTAL REGISTER

Prepare and maintain a submittal register, as the work progresses. A submittal register showing items of equipment and materials for which submittals are required by the specifications is provided as an attachment. This list may not be all inclusive and additional submittals may be required. Submittal Register shall include columns with the following data:

a. Column listing the specification section in which the submittal is required.

b. Column listing the Submittal Description and type (e.g., SD-02 Shop Drawings).

c. Column listing principal paragraph where the material or product is specified.

1.10 GOVERNMENT REVIEW

1.10.1 Review Notations

The Government will review submittals and provide pertinent notation generally within 15 working days after receipt of submission. On complex or lengthy submittals requiring extensive review efforts by the Government, and on occasions when numerous submittals are made within a 15 day period, the aforementioned 15-day review period may be exceeded by the Government.

Submittals will be returned to the Contractor with the following notations:

a. Submittals marked "APPROVED" authorize the Contractor to proceed with the work covered.

b. Submittals marked "APPROVED AS NOTED - NO RESUBMIT" authorize the Contractor to proceed with the work covered provided he takes no exception to the corrections.

c. Submittals marked "APPROVED AS NOTED - RESUBMIT" require the Contractor to make the necessary corrections and revisions and to re-submit them for approval in the same routine as before.

d. Submittals marked "REJECTED - RESUBMIT" indicate noncompliance with

SECTION 01 33 00 Page 11 the Contract requirements and shall be re-submitted with appropriate changes.

e. Submittals marked "REVIEW NOT REQUIRED - NO ACTION TAKEN" indicate the Government is not required to approve the submitted work or operation. Such determination by the Government shall not relieve Contractor of his responsibility to perform the work in a safe and workmanlike manner and to obtain all required permits and approvals.

1.11 SCHEDULING

Schedule and submit concurrently submittals covering component items forming a system or items that are interrelated. Include certifications to be submitted with the pertinent drawings at the same time. No delay damages or time extensions will be allowed for time lost in late submittals.

a. Coordinate scheduling, sequencing, preparing and processing of submittals with performance of work so that work will not be delayed by submittal processing. Allow for potential resubmittal of requirements.

b. Submittals called for by the construction documents will be listed on the register. If a submittal is called for but does not pertain to the contract work, the Contractor is to include the submittal in the register and annotate it "N/A" with a brief explanation. Approval by the Contracting Officer does not relieve the Contractor of supplying submittals required by the construction documents but which have been omitted from the register or marked "N/A."

c. Re-submit register and annotate monthly by the Contractor with actual submission and approval dates. When all items on the register have been fully approved, no further re-submittal is required .

d. Carefully control procurement operations to ensure that each individual submittal is made on or before the Contractor scheduled submittal date shown on the approved "Submittal Register."

1.12 REJECTED SUBMITTALS
