SACN, 1/17 01323-Page 3 of 4

2. In the event the Contractor fails to define any element of work, activity, or logic, and the Contracting Officer review does not detect this omission or error, such omission or error, when discovered by the Contractor or Contracting Officer, shall be corrected by the Contractor at the next monthly project schedule update and shall not affect the contract time.

3. Within seven calendar days after the joint review between the Contractor and Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall revise and resubmit the project schedule in accordance with agreements reached during the joint review.

4. Upon acceptance of the project schedule by the Contracting Officer, the project schedule will be used to evaluate the Contractor's monthly applications for payment based upon information developed at the monthly project schedule update meeting.

1 .5 PROJECT SCHEDULE UPDATES

A. General: Update the project schedule on a monthly basis throughout the entire contract time and until project substantial completion. The status date of each schedule update shall be the 7th day preceding the progress payment request date.

B. Procedure: The Contractor shall meet with the Contracting Officer each month at a project schedule update meeting to review actual progress made through the status date of the project schedule update, including dates activities were started and/or completed and the percentage of work completed on each activity started and/or completed.

C. Progress Payments: The monthly updating of the project schedule shall be an integral part of the process upon which progress payments will be made under this contract. If the contractor fails to provide schedule updates or revisions, then a portion of his monthly payment may be retained until such corrections have been made.

1 .6 PROJECT SCHEDULE REVISIONS

A. Required Revisions: If, as a result of the monthly schedule update, it appears the project schedule no longer represents the actual prosecution and progress of the work, the Contracting Officer will request, and the Contractor shall submit, a revision to the project schedule. The Contractor may also request reasonable revisions to the project schedule in the event the Contractor's planning for the work is revised.

SACN, 1/17 01323-Page 4 of 4

Contracting Officer a written time impact analysis illustrating the influence of each modification, change, delay, or Contractor request on the contract time.

B. Time Extensions: Activity delays shall not automatically mean that an extension of the contract time is warranted or due the Contractor. It is possible that a modification, change, or delay will not affect existing critical path activities or cause non-critical activities to become critical. A modification, change, or delay may result in only absorbing a part of the available total float that may exist within an activity chain of the project schedule, thereby not causing any effect on the contract time. Time extensions will be granted in accordance with the terms of the contract.

C. Float: Float is not for the exclusive use or benefit of either the Government or the Contractor.

Extension of the contract time will be granted only to the extent the equitable time adjustments to the activity or activities affected by the modification, change, or delay exceeds the total (positive or zero) float available on a particular activity.

D. Procedure: Each time impact analysis shall be submitted within the time period stated in a request for proposal, or the time period designated under the clauses entitled Changes or Default.

In cases where the Contractor does not submit a written request for extension of time and a time impact analysis within the designated time, it is mutually agreed that the particular modification, change, delay, or Contractor request does not require an extension of the contract time. Upon acceptance, the time impact analysis shall be incorporated into the project schedule at the next monthly schedule update.

1 .8 MONTHLY INSPECTIONS

A. Project record drawings as specified in Section 01770.

B. Operation and maintenance data binders as specified in Section 01785.

ARCHEOLOGICAL PROTECTION

SECTION 01350

A. The work of this section consists of protecting archeological resources contained in soil deposits.

1 .2 DEFINITIONS

A. Archeological Resources: Archeological resources are the physical evidences of past human activity, including evidences of the effects of that activity on the environment.

Archeological resources represent both prehistoric and historic time periods. They are found above and below ground and under water.

B. Archeologically Sensitive Areas: Areas that have the potential to contain significant (National Register eligible) archeological resources. If National Register eligible or listed archeological resources could not be avoided, an appropriate mitigation strategy would be developed in consultation with the state historic preservation officer and, if necessary, associated American Indian tribes.

C. Non-sensitive Areas: Areas with little, if any, potential of containing significant (National Register eligible) archeological resources.

D. Archeological Monitor: Representative of the Government designated to oversee construction activities that could disturb archeological resources.

E. Archeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA) of 1979 (P.L. 96-95; 93 Stat. 712): defines archeological resources as any material remains of past human life or activities that are of archeological interest and at least 100 years old; Section 4 of the statute describes the requirements that must be met before Federal authorities can issue a permit to excavate or remove any archeological resource on Federal or Indian lands; the curatorial requirements of artifacts, and other materials excavated or removed.

1 .3 SUBMITTALS

A. 30 days before start of ground-disturbing site work, submit a Daily Work Schedule, detailing construction work in archeologically sensitive areas. Key schedule to drawings and include the following information:

1. Starting and ending dates of ground-disturbing construction.

2. Locations of temporary facilities, such as barriers, field offices, staging areas, sanitary facilities, borrow pits, and haul and access roads.

3. Types of construction, such as clearing, topsoil stripping, structure or trench excavation, landscaping, and post construction clean-up.

4. Methods and equipment used for each type of construction.

5. Plan for relocating work in the event of temporary work stoppages at each archeologically sensitive area.

SACN, 1/17 01350-Page 2 of 3

B. For archeological investigation carried out by non-NPS personnel, the following applies:

1. A permit is required for any archeological investigations (e.g. excavation, shovel testing, coring, pedestrian survey, underwater archeology, rock art documentation, or other types of reconnaissance including the archaeological monitoring of construction) carried out on parklands by non-NPS personnel, unless carried out under a contract or a cooperative agreement specifically written for archeological investigations. Permits are issued under the Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 (ARPA). The NPS does not issue a permit for archeological investigations carried out by NPS archeologists, or to archeologists working on NPS archeological projects under a contract or cooperative agreement provided that the requirements of ARPA have otherwise been met.

2. Applicants should submit a Permit Application (DI Form 1926 (Rev Sept 2004) OMB No. 1024-0037, approved through 1/31/2008 – the Permit Application form is available in pdf format) to the manager of the park in which they propose to work; or to the regional director, with a copy to the park manager.

1 .4 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. At least one week before on-site work begins, Contractor shall meet with Contracting Officer and Archeological Monitor to discuss Daily Work Schedule and equipment and special methods to be used in archeologically sensitive areas.
