County whenever such low bid exceeds the

County’s available funds. For the purpose of determining when such negotiations may take place, the term “available funds” shall mean those funds which were budgeted by the County for this contract prior to issuance of the written Invitation for Bids. Negotiations with the low bidder may include both modifications of the bid price and

Scope of Work/Specifications to be performed.

The County shall initiate such negotiations by written notice to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder that its bid exceeds the available funds and that the County wishes to negotiate a lower contract price.

Evaluation. The paragraph text is retitled, 6.05.C.2

After Effective Date of Agreement. A new paragraph is added before this paragraph to read as follows:

1. During Bidding. The Contract, if awarded, will be on the basis of materials and equipment specified or described in the

Bidding Documents, or “or-equal” materials and equipment as defined in paragraph 6.05 of the General Conditions, or those substitute or materials and equipment approved by the

ENGINEER and identified by Addendum. The materials and equipment described in the

Bidding Documents establish a standard of required type, function, and quality to be met by any proposed substitute or “or-equal” item.

Request for ENGINEER’s clarification of materials and equipment considered “or-equal” prior to the Effective Date of the Agreement must be received by the ENGINEER at least 5 days prior to the date for receipt of Bids. No item of material or equipment will be considered by ENGINEER as a substitute unless written request for approval has been submitted by Bidder and has been received by

ENGINEER at least 15 days prior to the date for receipt of Bids. Each request shall conform to the requirements of paragraph 6.05 of the

General Conditions. The burden of proof of the merit of the proposed item is upon the

ENGINEER approves any proposed substitute item, such approval will be set forth in an

Addendum issued to all prospective Bidders.

Bidders shall not rely upon approvals made in any other manner.

SC-12.04 Add the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph 12.04.A:

When establishing the contract time, an allowance will be made for four (4) calendar days of work lost per month due to inclement weather conditions.

The Contractor, at the time of each periodic pay request, shall submit to the Engineer and Owner for approval a list of all working days lost due to either inclement weather or site conditions caused by inclement weather for the period. Accompanying his list should be a summary of the specific conditions which caused the loss. This request will be reviewed by the Engineer in light of observations made by the Engineer and resident inspector. Approval of the periodic payment estimate by the Engineer, Owner, and Agency will also include approval of the weather delay request.

After substantial completion, and not until then, a change order must be executed if a time extension for weather related delays is requested by the

Contractor. The time extension must be based solely on the time requested within the periodic payment estimates combined. Subtracted from this total time will be the four (4) days per month allowance assumed in the contract. There cannot be a decrease in contract length if the allowance for inclement weather exceeds the actual number of days lost due to inclement weather. To convert working days lost into calendar days, multiply the working days lost by seven (7) and divide by the number of working days in a typical work week.

SC-14.02 Add the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph 14.02.D:

E. Payment of Mobilization
