2.4 AS-BUILT RECORDS
2.4.1 As-Built Records. The Contractor shall maintain at the project site two sets of full-size contract drawings and specifications marked to show any deviations that have been made from the CTO drawings or specifications including buried or concealed structures and utility features revealed during the course of site work. The Contractor shall record the horizontal and vertical location of buried utilities that differ from the contract drawings. The drawings shall be available for review by the Contracting Officer or designated representative at all times. Upon completion of the work, the marked sets of prints shall be delivered to the Contracting Officer or designated representative.
2.4.2 As-Built Record of Materials. A record of the materials used shall be furnished prior to completing any CTO, as applicable.
2.5 INSTALLATION REGULATIONS
All Contractor employees and subcontractors shall become familiar with and obey installation regulations at each work location, including but not limited to fire, traffic, and security regulations. Personnel employed on the installation shall keep within the limits of the work area (and avenues of ingress and egress), and shall not enter restricted areas unless required to do so and cleared for such entry. The Contractor’s equipment shall be conspicuously marked for identification.
2.6 SCHEDULING
