3.3 FINAL EXAMINATION, ACCEPTANCE AND PAYMENT

General The presence of the OWNER’s construction representative shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for the proper execution of the work in accordance with the specifications. The Contractor will be required:

a. To furnish, on the request of the OWNER or any construction representative, the use of such boats, boatmen, laborers, and material forming a part of the ordinary and usual equipment and crew of the dredging plant as may be reasonably necessary in inspecting and supervising the work. However, the Contractor will not be required to furnish such facilities for the surveys, prescribed in paragraph entitled "FINAL EXAMINATION AND ACCEPTANCE" of this Section.

b. To furnish, on the request of the OWNER or any construction representative, suitable transportation from all points on shore designated by the OWNER to and from the various pieces of plant, and to and from the dredged material placement site. Should the Contractor refuse, neglect, or delay compliance with these requirements, the specific facilities may be furnished and maintained by the OWNER, and any resultant cost incurred by the OWNER will be deducted from any amounts due or to become due the Contractor.

c. Work on Sundays, Holidays, and Nights

d. Except as otherwise restricted herein, dredging may be performed from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm – Monday through Sunday. The Contractor at his expense shall provide adequate lighting, in compliance with all City, OSHA Regulations and Coast Guard Regulations for thorough inspection of night operations.

e. CONTINUITY OF WORK Payment will not be made for work done in any area designated by the OWNER until the full depth required under the contract is secured in the whole of such areas, nor will payment be made for excavation in any area not adjacent to and in prolongation of areas where full depth has been secured except by decision of the OWNER. Should any such non-adjacent area be excavated to full depth during the operations carried on under the contract, payment for all work therein may be deferred until the required depth has been made in the area intervening.

f. SHOALING Shoaling Prior to Dredging - The drawings and quantity estimates are based on the condition of the dredge area at the time of the most recent survey (measurements collected on 02/23/2026 by AKS Engineering) Any shoaling that has developed, subsequent to the survey indicated on the drawings and contiguous to the areas indicated to be dredged under this contract, shall be removed by the Contractor at the contract unit price for dredging, and including any applicable unit price adjustments if so directed by the OWNER.

Shoaling Subsequent to Dredging - If shoaling occurs before the contract is completed in any section previously accepted, including shoaling in the finished basin, re-dredging at contract price, including any applicable unit price adjustments, within the limit of available funds, may be done if agreeable to both the Contractor and the OWNER.

g. FINAL EXAMINATION AND ACCEPTANCE As soon as practicable after the completion of the entire work, such work will be thoroughly examined at the cost and expense of the OWNER by post bathymetric survey. Should any shoals, lumps, or other lack of contract depth be disclosed by this examination, the Contractor will be required to remove same by dredging at the contract price for dredging, but if the bottom is soft and the shoal areas are small and form no material obstruction to navigation, the removal of such shoal may be waived at the discretion of the OWNER. The Contractor shall provide adequate advance notice to the OWNER of the completion of dredging of each acceptance section (maximum 2) to insure prompt performance of the after dredging acceptance surveys. The Contractor shall provide the notice at least 5 calendar days in advance of anticipated completion of each section of work. If the Contractor fails to provide this advance notice, the OWNER will not be responsible for any delays caused by incomplete surveys. The Contractor will be notified when soundings are to be made and may accompany the survey party. When the area is found to be in satisfactory condition, it will be accepted. Should more than one sounding operation by the OWNER over an area be necessary by reason of work for the removal of shoals disclosed at a prior sounding, the cost of such second and any subsequent sounding operations will be charged against the contractor at the rate of $5,0000.00 per day for each day in which the surveyor is engaged in sounding or is in route to or from the site or held at or near the said site for such operations. Final acceptance of the whole or a part of the work and the deductions or corrections of deductions made thereon will not be reopened after having once been made, except on evidence of collusion, fraud, or obvious error, and the acceptance of a completed section shall not change the time of payment of the retained percentages of the whole or any part of the work.

h. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT Lump Sum Payment items - Payment items for the work of this contract for which contract lump sum payments will be made are listed in the BID FORM and described below. All costs for items of work, which are not specifically mentioned to be included in a particular lump sum or unit price payment item, shall be included in the listed lump sum item most closely associated with the work involved. The lump sum price and payment made for each item listed shall constitute full compensation for furnishing all plant, labor, materials, and equipment, and performing any associated Contractor quality control, environmental protection, meeting safety requirements, tests and reports, and for performing all work required for which separate payment is not otherwise provided.

Mobilization and Demobilization - All costs connected with the mobilization and demobilization of all of the contractor's dredging plant and equipment as defined above will be paid for at the contract lump sum price for this item. The mobilization and demobilization may not exceed twenty five percent of the total contract price. Sixty percent of the lump sum price will be paid to the contractor upon completion of his mobilization at the work site. The remaining forty percent will be paid to the Contractor upon completion of demobilization. In the event the OWNER considers that the amount in this item, sixty percent which represents mobilization and forty percent which represents demobilization, does not bear a reasonable relation to the cost of the work in this contract, the OWNER may require the contractor to produce cost data to justify this portion of the bid. Failure to justify such price to the satisfaction of the OWNER will result in payment of actual mobilization costs, as determined by the OWNER, at the completion of mobilization, and actual demobilization costs, as determined by the OWNER, at the completion of demobilization. The determination of the OWNER is not subject to appeal.

Mobilization - Mobilization shall include all costs for operations accomplished prior to commencement of actual dredging operations, this shall include transfer of dredge, attendant plant, and equipment to site, all initial installation of pipe, placement site inspection and any other associated work that is necessary in advance of the actual dredging operations.

Demobilization - Demobilization shall include general preparation for transfer of plant to its home base, removal of equipment, cleanup of site of work including the placement area (as applicable), placement site grading and ditching (as applicable), weir maintenance (as applicable), and transfer of plant to its home base.

i. UNIT PRICE PAYMENT ITEMS The unit price and payment made for each item listed shall constitute full compensation for furnishing all plant, labor, materials, and equipment, and performing any associated Contractor quality control, environmental protection, meeting safety requirements, tests and reports, and for performing all work required for each of the unit price items.

Dredging - Payment to be made for costs associated with dredging shall include the cost of removal, transportation and disposal of dredged material in the designated placement area as indicated and specified exclusive of the Lump Sum Payment Items as defined above. The total amount of material removed and to be paid for under this payment item will be measured by the cubic yard in place by computing the volume between the bottom surface shown by soundings of the last surveys made before dredging, and the bottom surface shown by the soundings of surveys made as soon as practicable after the work has been completed. The volume for measurement and payment shall include the material within the limits of over-depth and side slopes described in paragraph "Required Dredging Prism, Over-depth, and Side Slopes", less any deductions that may be required for misplaced material described in subparagraph "Misplaced Material", below. The drawings are believed to accurately represent conditions at the time of the surveys indicated. New soundings will NOT be taken immediately before dredging.

The Contractor's unit price for dredging, based on the above method of computation of the quantity for payment, shall include his evaluation of shoaling, other natural changes in the waterway, or changes caused by the Contractor's operations that might occur during the period between the surveys before dredging and the surveys for acceptance of the work. Computations for payment purposes will be made by the Certified Hydrographic surveyor using the average end area method and electronic data processing machines. Determination of quantities removed and the deductions made to determine quantities in place to be paid for in the areas specified, after having once been made, will not be reopened except on evidence of collusion, fraud, or obvious error.

Misplaced Material - Any material that is deposited elsewhere than in places designated or approved by the OWNER will not be paid for, and the contractor may be required to remove such misplaced material and deposit it where directed at his expense.

Excessive Dredging - Material taken from outside the specific areas to be dredged or beyond the limits as extended in paragraph "Required Dredging Prism, Over-depth, and Side Slopes" will be considered as excessive over-depth dredging, or excessive side slope dredging, for which payment will not be made.

Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent payment for the removal of shoals performed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Paragraph SHOALING and Paragraph FINAL EXAMINATION AND ACCEPTANCE.

Variations in Estimated Dredging Quantities - Where the quantity of a pay item in this Contract is an estimated quantity and where actual quantity of such pay item varies more than fifteen (15%) percent above or below the estimated quantity determined by a Before Dredging survey, an equitable adjustment shall be made upon demand of either party. The equitable adjustment shall be based upon any decrease or increase in costs due solely to the variations above one hundred fifteen (115%) percent or below eighty- five percent (85%) of the estimated quantity. The above variation in quantities will be calculated on the quantity of material removed above the project depth and side slopes only and will not be made on the material in the areas classified as allowable "over depth".
