About this file
This is a Special Conditions document that modifies the General Conditions for a Water Treatment Services contract with the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) in Maryland. The contract solicitation seeks a qualified contractor to provide comprehensive water treatment services for HVAC and biosolids systems across eleven WSSC facilities. Services include furnishing all necessary supervision, labor, equipment, materials, chemicals, tools, and related services to maintain designated systems in proper operating condition. Sealed responses must be submitted via WSSC's eProcurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/wsscwater prior to 2:00 pm on Monday, August 3, 2026, with late responses not accepted.
The Special Conditions document modifies the standard General Conditions by deleting Article 5.2 regarding Economic Price Adjustment in its entirety. Additionally, the document explicitly addresses COVID-19 pandemic impacts, establishing that both parties acknowledge the pandemic's potential effects on schedule and performance and have factored such delays and disruptions into the pricing and contract terms. Significantly, the Special Conditions expressly exclude COVID-19 and its effects from the Force Majeure clause, prohibiting claims for additional time, compensation, or other adjustments based on pandemic-related impacts. The Force Majeure clause is further amended to remove any references to epidemics and related government mandates, laws, regulations, ordinances, or court orders.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
These Special Conditions identify additional contract provisions and modify, change, delete from, or add to the
General Conditions attached to and to be incorporated in the Contract as Section III. Where any Article of the
General Conditions is modified or deleted by these Special Conditions, the unaltered provisions of that Article, paragraph, sub-paragraph, or clause shall remain in effect.
1- GENERAL CONDITIONS
The General Conditions – Goods & Supplies are modified as follows:
1. ARTICLE 5.2. ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT
DELETE in its entirety.
2- ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
The following provisions are incorporated as additional terms and conditions of the Contract:
The parties are aware of the Covid – 19 pandemic and the impact it has, will, or may have on the schedule and performance of the work and have taken any such delays, disruptions, interference, or other impacts into consideration in establishing the schedule, pricing, and other terms and conditions of the Agreement. The parties agree that, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, the Covid – 19 pandemic and its effects are therefore expressly excluded from the Force Majeure clause of the General Conditions and cannot serve as a basis for a claim for additional time, compensation, or other equitable or legal adjustment or amendment to the contract. The
Force Majeure clause of the General Conditions is amended to delete any reference to “epidemics” and to any laws, regulations, ordinances, orders, or other mandates of any government, governmental agency, or court relating thereto.
