SECTION 00 80 00.00 09

SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK

1.1.1 Commencement

The Contractor shall be required to commence work under each Task Order within 10 calendar days after the date of receipt of Notice to Proceed and to diligently prosecute said work.

The Government anticipates issuing Requests for Proposals for the following task orders on the contract. The estimated tonnages are based on the best information available at the time of this solicitation and may vary due to site conditions.

Proposed Task Orders:

T.O. 1 - Stone Repair (RM 235 - 0) - Estimated tonnage: 50,000 tons of "B" Stone.

Notice to Proceed with Task Order 1 will be issued within 30 days of inspection trip depending on river stages.

It is the intent of the Government to issue the Notice to Proceed for the task order shown. Only one mobilization and demobilization cost will be paid for the original task order. No additional mobilization and demobilization will be paid, unless additional task orders are not issued consecutively to another ongoing task order. If, for his convenience, the Contractor requests delays between issuance of task orders within the limitations described above, the Government will not be obligated to pay additional mobilization and demobilization costs. As indicated by the Bidding Schedule, sites requiring larger stone quantities are located through Pool 3 and Pool 4.

1.1.2 Prosecution

(1) The "revetment stone repair" rate of progress that will be required of the Contractor on this work will be based on the Contractor maintaining an average rate of stone placement of 1000 tons per calendar day for revetments and dike repairs.

Sudden rises in river stages are normal during low-water construction season and may at times limit repair work to the upper part of the bank paving or dikes. In such case where part of the work required on certain revetments or dikes is prevented due to high river stages, the Contracting Officer may direct the Contractor to return to these revetments or dikes to complete the work after moving his operations to other localities. In the event river stages at the time of the work are lower than at the time the detailed instructions as to work to be done are furnished the Contractor, or additional work is determined to be necessary during the progress of the work, the Contracting Officer

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 09 Page 2 Revised By Amendment 0001

W912EE20B0004

may direct such additional work as may be necessary. In any event, except as stated above, the Contractor will be required to diligently and continuously (without interruption) prosecute the work under this contract, maintain the specified rate of progress, and complete the work during the time as determined in paragraph COMPLETION.

(2) If the Contractor falls behind the progress called for, the Contractor shall take such steps as may be necessary to improve his progress and the Contracting Officer may require him to increase the number of shifts and/or overtime operations, and/or the amount of construction plant without additional cost to the Government.

(3) Failure of the Contractor to comply with the requirements of the Contracting Officer under these provisions of the specifications shall be grounds for determination by the Contracting Officer that the Contractor is not prosecuting the work with such diligence as will ensure completion within the time specified. Upon such determination, the Contracting Officer may terminate the Contractor's right to proceed with the work or any separable part thereof, in accordance with the Contract Clause DEFAULT (FIXED PRICE CONSTRUCTION).

1.1.3 Completion

The Contractor shall complete the entire work for the Task Order within the number of calendar days determined by dividing the total tons of repair stone by 1000, beginning 10 calendar days after the receipt of Notice to Proceed, plus 5 days for completion, including finish dressing.

The time for completion will be extended to the extent that the work is suspended due to river stages, lock outages or dredging operations. The number of days computed above shall be used when computing liquidated damages as specified in paragraph LIQUIDATED DAMAGES-CONSTRUCTION. If, through no fault or negligence of the Contractor, the work is not completed at such times as river stages at the worksite, or sites, reach a height which makes it inadvisable or impracticable to proceed with the work under the Task Order, and is of such indicated duration as to constitute the end of the working season, the Contracting Officer will give the Contractor 10 calendar days written notice of the termination of the Task Order pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, in which event the Contractor will be paid for work actually performed at the applicable contract unit price or prices.

1.2 EXCLUSION PERIODS FOR COMPUTING COMPLETION SCHEDULE

(This clause supplements paragraph COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK, above.)

No work shall be performed during the period of 23 December 2020 through 28 December 2020, inclusive, and such period shall not have been considered in computing the time allowed for completion of a Task Order.

1.3 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES-CONSTRUCTION

(a) If the Contractor fails to complete the work within the time specified in the contract, the Contractor shall pay liquidated damages to the Government in the amount of $914.00 for each calendar day of delay until the work is completed or accepted.

(b) If the Government terminates the Contractor's right to proceed, damages will continue to accrue until the work is completed. These

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 09 Page 3 Revised By Amendment 0001

W912EE20B0004

liquidated damages are in addition to excess costs of repurchase under the Termination clause. (FAR 52.211-12)

1.4 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS

(a) The Government will provide to the Contractor, without charge, one set of contract drawings and specifications, except publications incorporated into the technical provisions by reference, in electronic or paper media as chosen by the Contracting Officer.

(b) The Contractor shall --

(1) Check all drawings furnished immediately upon receipt;

(2) Compare all drawings and verify the figures before laying out the work;

(3) Promptly notify the Contracting Officer of any discrepancies;

(4) Be responsible for any errors that might have been avoided by complying with this paragraph (b); and

(5) Reproduce and print contract drawings and specifications as needed.

(c) In general --

(1) Large-scale drawings shall govern small scale drawings; and

(2) The Contractor shall follow figures marked on drawings in preference to scale measurements.

(d) Omissions from the drawings or specifications or the misdescription of details of work which are manifestly necessary to carry out the intent of the drawings and specifications, or that are customarily performed, shall not relieve the Contractor from performing such omitted or misdescribed details of the work. The Contractor shall perform such details as if fully and correctly set forth and described in the drawings and specifications.

(e) The work shall conform to the specifications and the contract drawings identified on the following index of drawings:

1.5 CORRESPONDENCE AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION

For ease and speed of communications, both the Government and Contractor shall exchange correspondence and all other documents duplicate in both hard paper copy and electronic format. Inclusion of an electronic copy is in addition to any other parts of the contract that may specify a minimum number of hard copies to be submitted, such as for shop drawing transmittals. Electronic submission can be accomplished by one of the following methods: email, file upload to the following website https://safe.armdec.army.mil/SAFE, or through the Quality Control System (QCS) software interface with the Resident Management System (RMS). Format for electronic submissions will be in portable document format (.pdf).

Documents include all general correspondence, administrative plans, all material submittals including shop drawings, progress schedules, submittal registers, requests for information (RFIs), Quality Control (QC) test results, pay requests, etc. Paper documents will govern, in the event of discrepancy with the electronic version. Generally, paper documents will also govern where effective receipt dates are required, such as Contractor claims submitted under the Disputes clause of the contract and progress payment requests. However in the case of administrative plans, shop drawings and other submittals transmitted for government review, both the electronic and hard copies are required to begin the review process, so the effective date of receipt will be the date when both the electronic and hard copies are received by the government.

1.6 (S-102) CONTRACTOR SUPPLY AND USE OF ELECTRONIC SOFTWARE FOR PROCESSING

DAVIS-BACON ACT CERTIFIED LABOR PAYROLLS

The Contractor is encouraged to use a commercially-available electronic system to process and submit certified payrolls electronically to the Government. The requirements for preparing, processing and providing certified labor payrolls are established by the Davis-Bacon Act as stated in FAR 52.222-8, PAYROLLS AND BASIC RECORDS and FAR 52.222-13, COMPLIANCE

WITH DAVIS-BACON AND RELATED ACT REGULATIONS.

If the Contractor elects to use an electronic Davis-Bacon payroll processing system, then the Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining and providing for all access, licenses, and other services required to provide for receipt, processing, certifying, electronically transmitting to the Government, and storing weekly payrolls and other data required for the Contractor to comply with Davis-Bacon and related Act regulations. When the Contractor uses an electronic Davis-Bacon payroll system, the electronic payroll service shall be used by the Contractor to prepare, process, and maintain the relevant payrolls and basic records during all work under this construction contract and electronic payroll service shall be capable of preserving these payrolls and related basic records for the required 3 years after contract completion. If the Contractor chooses to

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 09 Page 5 Revised By Amendment 0001

W912EE20B0004

Extreme high water usually occurs during April and May after which the stage usually falls to approximately the minimum pool elevation and remains low for several months. The normal working season for the work to be done under this contract is seldom more than five months, and usually extends from about 15 July to about 15 December. Annual hydrographs of different Engineer gages within limits of the Vicksburg District are available for inspection at the office of the Contracting Officer. Currents usually encountered at the sites of the work during low water period may vary from about one mile per hour to about six miles per hour. Navigation through the locks on the Red River may be impeded at times by high river stages.

c. Weather Conditions. Information with respect to temperatures and precipitation may be obtained from the National Weather Service.

d. Conditions of Channel. Hydrographic surveys in the vicinity of the work are available for inspection at the office of the Contracting Officer.

e. Channel Traffic. The normal traffic on the river consisting of self-propelled craft with or without tows will pass the worksite, as well as possible channel maintenance dredging activities in the vicinity of the repair sites.

For forward pricing, the schedule in effect at the time of negotiations shall apply. For retroactive pricing, the schedule in effect at the time the work was performed shall apply.

(c) Equipment rental costs are allowable, subject to the provisions of FAR 31.105(d)(ii) and FAR 31.205-36, Rental Costs. Rates for equipment rented from an organization under common control, lease-purchase arrangements, and sale-leaseback arrangements, will be determined using the schedule, except that actual rates will be used for equipment leased from an organization under common control that has an established practice of leasing the same or similar equipment to unaffiliated lessees.

(d) When actual equipment costs are proposed and the total amount of the pricing action exceeds the SAT, the contracting officer shall request the Contractor to submit either certified cost or pricing data, or partial/limited data, as appropriate. The data shall be submitted on Standard Form 1411, Contract Pricing Proposal Cover Sheet.
