Existing utility lines that are shown on the drawings or the locations are otherwise made known to the Contractor shall be protected from damage, and if damaged, shall be repaired by the Contractor at no additional expense to the Government. In the event that the Contractor damages any existing utility lines that are not shown or the locations of which have not been made known to the Contractor, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer will review the information and discuss with the Contractor how to proceed. The Contractor will be responsible for the protection of structures from any structural damage during the construction operations. Roads and surfaces shall be protected from damage by the work or if damaged shall be repaired with equal materials at no additional expense to the Government. At all times the plant and work areas shall be kept in a condition conducive to safety of workmen and the public and neat in appearance. Waste or surplus materials shall not be allowed to accumulate in the construction areas.

1.5 DISPOSITION OF CONSTRUCTION FACILITIES

All buildings and facilities constructed by the Contractor shall be maintained in a satisfactory condition with strict observance of the rules of sanitation, safety and order as may be established by the Contracting Officer. Prior to final payment under the contract, all buildings and facilities constructed by the Contractor for the Contractor's use shall be removed from the site by the Contractor.

1.6 COOPERATION WITH OTHER CONTRACTORS

The Contractor shall cooperate and coordinate work with that of others working in the area,including powerhouse maintenance personnel, during the life of this contract. The Contractor shall coordinate work with others to avoid undue interference and shall conduct operations, other than approved required access, within the limits of the assigned construction area or construction right-of-way limits. The Contractor shall cooperate with others as necessary in the interest of timely completion of all work and in the event of disagreement the decision of the Contracting Officer shall be final.

1.7 GENERATING UNIT AVAILABILITY AND ACCESS

The Contractor will be required to work in the order of the approved outage schedule. Reference Paragraph 1.8 COORDINATION AND OUTAGES, for unit outage sequencing constraints. Contractor will coordinate with the Contracting Officer Representative on the order in which the units will be completed.

The Government will arrange for the unit outages. The Government reserves the right to require changes to the Contractor's Proposed Outages Schedule.

Power demands and emergency maintenance requirements may limit unit availability. Should this occur, the Contractor will be notified. The first day of availability shall not be a weekend day or on a Friday. Contractor personnel shall not enter the unit until given assurance in writing by the Government that all Safe Clearance steps have been completed.

1.8 COORDINATION AND OUTAGES

The contractor shall commence work with Unit 8. Unit 4 and Unit 2 generator outages have reduced duration due to other outages for government work.

Work on these two units shall be prioritized to perform demolition, then install strainer inlet isolation valve and air cooler discharge line isolation valve. At that point, the clearance can be moved from the penstock headgates to the new strainer inlet valve and air cooler discharge line isolation valve. This will allow the penstock to be refilled and generator to be placed back in service while work continues on strainer and remaining piping installation. Only one penstock/generator may be under outage at a time for this work, but two strainers may be out of service at a time provided that the remaining two strainers are functional.

The Table Below is Fort Randall's planned outage schedule for this project.

Note 1: Unit 4 and Unit 2 generator outages have reduced duration due to other outages for government work. Work on these two units shall be prioritized to perform demolition, then install strainer inlet isolation valve. At that point, the clearance can be moved from the penstock headgates to the new strainer inlet valve. This will allow the penstock to be refilled and generator to be placed back in service while work continues on strainer and remaining piping installation. Only one penstock/generator may be under outage at a time for this work, but two strainers may be out of service at a time provided that the remaining two strainers are functional.

Note 2: Outages on the 14” raw water header must be kept to a minimum. If the option is awarded to replace header isolation valves, work shall be prioritized to perform demolition and install new isolation valve. At that point the clearance can be moved from the entire header to the new valve to allow the header to be placed back in service.

SECTION 01 12 00 Page 4

The Contractor's employees shall not open, close or tamper with switches, valves or control devices for existing installed equipment. Only Government operating personnel will be authorized to open or close existing switches, valves and control devices to enable the Contractor to make connections or modifications to existing equipment. Work shall be coordinated and scheduled to reduce the "Outage" time of operating equipment or systems to a minimum. Work in the proximity of exposed energized equipment such as in the switchyard or work involving connections to existing energized or operating equipment or systems shall perform only under the Safe Clearance Procedures. The Contractor will be instructed by the Contracting Officer in the proper procedure for requesting clearances.

Only qualified supervisory personnel will be permitted to request clearances. Request for "Outage" shall be made by the Contractor to the Contracting Officer in each instance and in sufficient time to permit adjusting power plant operations, and to coordinate outages with the dispatching agency. Scheduling of "Outage" will be subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer.

After the USACE drafts an evaluation (interim or final), the Contractor will have the opportunity to access, review, comment and either concur or non-concur with the evaluation in the CPARS system for a period of 60 days.

SECTION 01 30 00.24 Page 3

Access to the CPARS system requires either specific software called PKI certification (recommended method) or a username and password. The PKI certification is a Department of Defense recommendation and to provide security in electronic transactions. The certification software could cost approximately $110 - $125 per certificate per year and may be purchased from an External Certificate Authorities (ECA) vendor. Current information about the PKI certification process and contacting vendors can be found on the web site: https://www.cpars.gov.
