Submit invoices for payment as required in Section 00 73 00 SUPPLEMENTARY CONDITIONS. Progress payments for work accomplished will be made monthly.

3.3 PAYMENT METHOD

3.3.1 Pre/Post Dredge Survey

a. In dredge acceptance areas the Government will provide a required channel depth, with a maximum pay depth of 1 foot beyond the required channel depth. The dredging pay prism is formed by the maximum pay depth, the 1-vertical to 3-horizontal side slopes, and the horizontal dredging area limits.

b. Request pre and post dredge Government hydrographic surveys in accordance with requirements described in this Section.

NOTE: The Contractor should consider conducting some means of hydrosurvey prior to requesting a government post dredge survey for acceptance of a work area so as to avoid being assessed the fee prescribed in Subpart 3.3.2.j.

c. A work area will be accepted when all of the sorted survey values inside the channel limits are equal to or deeper than the required channel depth. Survey Acceptance will be based on data processed using

01 22 00.00 82-3 AMD 0001

a median depth sort on a 30-foot by 30-foot matrix, as described in Attachment A10 Survey Acceptance Criteria. The Government reserves the right to accept a work area which does not meet the acceptance criteria as described elsewhere in this contract.

3.3.2 Quantity Surveys

a. The Government will perform surveys utilizing electronic depth sounding and horizontal positioning equipment. Sounding depths used for acceptance and for the determiniation of pay quantity volumes will be derived as follows; Multi-beam acoustic methods will be used within the channel limits, and on the side slopes. Side slopes may be augmented by 200 kHz single-beam where depths become too shallow for multi-beam methods. The Government reserves the right to take soundings by leadline where necessary. The same methods will be used for the pre dredge and post dredge survey of a given reach. Accuracies will be in accordance with stated quality control values in EM-1110-2-1003. At the request of the Contractor, the Government will provide the survey line files by which surveys are run.

b. As required, data from land surveys will be obtained and incorporated into the volume computation.

c. The following survey equipment (or comparable based on asset availability) will be used by the Government Survey Crews during the collection of sounding data and will be considered the standard for which data is obtained:

Positioning: Applanix Wavemaster or Applanix POS MV 4

Multi-beam: Norbit iWBMSh STX or RESON T-50 MB

Single-beam: ODOM CV100 ECHOSOUNDER with a 3 degree 200khz transducer

AML Velocity Probe

AML Sound Velocity Profiler

NOTE: The Government will be available at the request of the Contractor to run check surveys between the Contractor's and Government's survey vessels prior to the start of work. The Contractor must request any side-by-side survey checks at least 7 days in advance.

d. The maximum dredging pay prism is defined by the intersection of the maximum dredging pay depth and the dredging pay slope, as shown in Attachment A3 Descriptive Sketch. The maximum dredging pay prism assumes side slopes projected upward from the dredging area limits at the maximum pay depth required in Section 35 20 23.00 82 DREDGING AND CHANNEL CLEARING, regardless of whether it is found to be representative of the actual slope conditions after dredging. Actual material removed from the slope that is within the maximum dredging pay prism determined by the pre dredge hydrographic survey is considered payable. Any material removed from outside of the maximum dredging pay prism will not be considered for payment.

NOTE: The bidders are responsible for calculating the quantity of

01 22 00.00 82-4 AMD 0001

non-pay yards that may be removed outside the pay template and must adjust their bid accordingly.

e. Cubic yard volumes for payment will be computed by the Government in Hypack using the Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN) surface volume computation method. Computed pay volumes will be the difference between the TIN to Channel computation of the pre dredge survey and the TIN to Channel computation of the post dredge survey. For computation purposes soundings will be a median sort on a 5-foot by 5-foot matrix. No adjustments will be made for infill material.

f. All Contractor owned equipment, including all attendant plant and anchor lines, must be removed from the acceptance area prior to the initiation of a survey. If Contractor owned equipment remains in the acceptance area at the time of survey, the survey will be canceled and the Contractor will be liable for the full daily rate for a Government Survey crew shown in Subpart 3.3.2.j.

g. In addition to pre and post dredge surveys, the Government may also conduct periodic progress surveys at all work locations. The Government may consider Government or Contractor progress surveys to determine the amount of progress payments.

h. Survey Time Frames:

(1) All survey requests must be made by submission of Attachment A6 Hydrographic Survey Request Form and submitted a minimum of 4 calendar days prior to the date on which the survey is required or immediately upon receiving the layout drawing if the survey is needed in less than 4 days.

(2) Work may not start within any given acceptance area until the pre dredge survey has been completed.

(3) The Government will perform all post dredge surveys within 5 calendar days of the requested date, pending suitable weather conditions. The complete layout or post dredge package (i.e.

electronic survey data, layout chart, and quantity computations) will be available 2 calendar days thereafter. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be provided within 1 day following the survey. Remain on-site until the final post dredge survey has been accepted.

i. In the event it becomes necessary to reschedule a request for survey, notify the Government at least 1 calendar day, during normal business hours, prior to the first day of the scheduled survey period.

Failure to provide such notification will make the Contractor liable for one-half the daily rate for a Government survey crew. If the survey party mobilizes to the site before the survey is canceled, the Contractor will be liable for the full daily rate for a Government survey crew shown in Subpart 3.3.2.j.

j. Should the Contractor request a post dredge survey of an area and then be required to return to that area due to non-acceptance; the Contractor will be charged the daily rate of $3,500 for any subsequent post dredge surveys. Should the Contractor request a pre dredge survey and not commence dredging within 10 days of the survey's execution, the Contractor will be charged the daily rate for any subsequent pre dredge

01 22 00.00 82-5 AMD 0001

surveys.

3.3.3 Quality Assurance Surveys

A high frequency of Government performed surveys must be anticipated. The Government may elect to perform, for the Governments use, up to two quality assurance surveys in each acceptance area. These surveys are not intended to supplement or replace the Contractors QC/progress surveys. The Government will provide 48 hour notice prior to initiating a quality assurance survey. The Government will perform these surveys to minimize the impact to the Contractor. The Contractor should anticipate needing to briefly suspend operations for these surveys, but movement of equipment will not be required. No separate payment will be made for impacts associated with these quality assurance surveys, and quality assurance surveys will not be used for the basis of progress payments.
