19.3 SUBMITTAL CLASSIFICATION

Submittals are classified as follows:

19.3.1 Government Approved

Government approval is required for submittals with a “G” designation. Governmental approval is required for extensions of design, critical materials, deviations, equipment whose compatibility with the entire system must be checked, and other items as designated by the Contracting Officer. These are considered to be "shop drawings." The Contractor shall submit the Submittal Register, ENG Form 4288, in accordance with the requirements of paragraph "SUBMITTAL REGISTER (ENG Form 4288)".

19.3.2 Information Only

Submittals having an "FIO" designation are for information only. All submittals not requiring Government approval will be for information only. They are not considered to be "shop drawings" as referred to above.

19.3.3 Approved Submittals

The Contracting Officer's approval of submittals shall not be construed as a complete check, but will indicate only that the general method of fabrication, materials, detailing and other information are satisfactory. Approval will not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for any error which may exist, as the Contractor under the CQC requirements of this contract is responsible for dimensions, the design of adequate connections and details, and the satisfactory completion of all work. After submittals have been approved by the Contracting Officer, no resubmittal for the purpose of substituting materials or equipment will be considered unless accompanied by an explanation of why a substitution is necessary.

19.3.4 Disapproved Submittals

The Contractor shall make all corrections required by the Contracting Officer and promptly furnish a corrected submittal in the form and number of copies specified for the initial submittal.

If the Contractor considers any correction indicated on the submittals to constitute a change to the contract, a notice in accordance with the Contract Clause "Changes" shall be given promptly to the Contracting Officer.

20. EXECUTION

The Contractor shall make submittals as required by the specifications. By written contract modification, the Contracting Officer may request submittals in addition to those specified when deemed necessary to adequately describe the work covered in the respective sections. Units of weights and measures used on all submittals shall be the same as those used in the contract drawings. Each submittal shall be complete and in sufficient detail to allow ready determination of compliance with contract requirements. Prior to submittal, all items shall be checked and approved by the Contractor's Quality Control (CQC) representative and each item shall be stamped, signed, and dated by the CQC representative indicating action taken. Proposed deviations from the contract requirements shall be clearly identified. Submittals shall include items such as descriptive literature including (but not limited to) catalog cuts and diagrams; test reports; samples; certifications; warranties; and other such required submittals. Submittals requiring Government approval shall be scheduled and made prior to the acquisition of the material or equipment covered thereby. Samples remaining upon completion of the work shall be picked up and disposed of in accordance with manufacturer's Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and in compliance with existing laws and regulations.

20.1 Submittal Register

At the end of this section is a submittal register listing items of equipment and materials for which submittals are required by the specifications; this list may not be all inclusive and additional submittals may be required.

Prepare and maintain the submittal register as the work progresses. Do not change data which is output in columns (c), (d), (e), and (f) as delivered by Government; retain data which is output in columns (a), (g), (h), and (i) as approved. A submittal register showing items of equipment and materials for which submittals are required by the specifications is provided as an attachment.

This list may not be all inclusive and additional submittals may be required. The Government will provide the initial submittal register in electronic format with the following fields completed, to the extent that will be required by the Government during subsequent usage.

Column (c): Lists specification section in which submittal is required.

Column (d): Lists each submittal description (SD No. and type, e.g. SD-02 Shop Drawings) required in each specification section.

Column (e): Lists one principal paragraph in specification section where a material or product is specified. This listing is only to facilitate locating submitted requirements. Do not consider entries in column (e) as limiting project requirements

Thereafter, the Contractor is to track all submittals by maintaining a complete list, including completion of all data columns, including dates on which submittals are received and returned by the Government

20.2 Scheduling

Submittals covering component items forming a system or items that are interrelated shall be scheduled to be coordinated and submitted concurrently. Certifications to be submitted with the pertinent drawings shall be so scheduled. Adequate time (a minimum of 30 calendar days exclusive of mailing time) shall be allowed and shown on the register for review and approval.

A minimum of 30 calendar days shall be allowed for any required resubmittal.

20.3 Transmittal Form (ENG Form 4025)

The sample transmittal form (ENG Form 4025) attached to this section shall be used for submitting both Government approved and information only submittals in accordance with the instructions on the reverse side of the form. These forms will be furnished to the Contractor.

This form shall be properly completed by filling out all the heading blank spaces and identifying each item submitted. Special care shall be exercised to ensure proper listing of the specification paragraph and/or sheet number of the contract drawings pertinent to the data submitted for each item.

20.4 Submittal Procedure

Submittals shall be made as follows:

20.4.1 Submission. Submittals shall be submitted electronically to:

Robert Coward, Plant Manager U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 3500 Grand Ave.

Pittsburgh, PA 15225

20.4.2 Technical Data and Manufacturer's Literature

Where materials are stocked with the manufacturer, catalog data, including specifications and full descriptive matter, may be submitted as shop drawings. When catalog data includes non-applicable data, the applicable data shall be clearly designated and identified by item number, item name, and name of manufacturer.

20.4.3 Samples

All samples of materials submitted as required by these specifications shall be properly identified and labeled for ready identification.

20.4.4 Deviations

For submittals which include proposed deviations requested by the Contractor, the column "variation" of ENG Form 4025 shall be checked. The Contractor shall set forth in writing the reason for any deviations and annotate such deviations on the submittal. The Government reserves the right to rescind inadvertent approval of submittals containing unnoted deviations.

20.5 Control of Submittals

The Contractor shall carefully control its procurement operations to ensure that each individual submittal is made on or before the Contractor scheduled submittal date shown on the approved "Submittal Register."

20.6 Government-Approved Submittals

Upon completion of review of submittals requiring Government approval, the submittals will be identified as having received approval by being so stamped and dated. Two copies of the submittal will be retained by the Government’s technical representative, and one copy of the submittal will be returned to the Contractor.

20.7 Information Only Submittals

Normally submittals for information only will not be returned. Approval is not required on information only submittals. The Government reserves the right to require the Contractor to resubmit any item found not to comply with the contract. This does not relieve the Contractor from the obligation to furnish material conforming to the plans and specifications, will not prevent the Contracting Officer from requiring removal and replacement of nonconforming material incorporated in the work, and does not relieve the Contractor of the requirement to furnish samples for testing by the Government laboratory or for check testing by the Government in those instances where the technical specifications so prescribe.

20.8 Stamps

Professional Engineer stamps are not required for submittals under this contract. Stamps used by the Contractor on the submittal data to certify that the submittal meets contract requirements shall be similar to the following:
