MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 SUMMARY

This section describes how Line Items will be measured and paid for when making progress payments. Work to be measured is described in specification sections listed for each Line Item. Measurement procedures for payment, required quantity survey or procurement documentation and payment restrictions are described in applicable specification sections.

Allocate costs for work not specifically mentioned to the Line Item most closely associated with work involved. Unless there is a specific Line Item for administrative costs, such as Quality Control and Safety, allocate such costs proportionally across all Line Items.

1.2 QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEM (QCS)

1.2.1 Definition

The terms "Contract Line Item Number (CLIN)" and "Line Item" are interchangeable herein (e.g.: CLIN 0001 is Line Item 0001). The term "CLIN" is a contracting term used in the Quality Control System (QCS) payment data base.

1.2.2 Instructions

See Section 01 45 04 C0NTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL for instructions on linking a CLIN to a schedule of values of pay activities and construction schedule, and in-depth payment procedure.

1.3 DEFINITIONS

1.3.1 Compensating Slopes

The allowance for material to be placed above the specified fill tolerance to compensate for the specified foreshore slope being below grade due to sediment relocated by natural forces between the time of placement and payment surveys. This is permitted for payment purposes only.

1.4 SUBMITTALS

Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation;

submittals not having a "G" designation are for information only. When used, a designation following the "G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government. Transmit submittal items in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:

SD-01 Preconstruction Submittals

Schedule of Values; G, RO

SECTION 01 22 00 Page 2

Provide a breakdown of lump sum items into proposed pay activities. Schedule of Values will become basis for CLIN and Pay Activity data in the QCS payment data base.

1.5 LUMP SUM PAYMENT ITEMS

Payment items for the work of this contract for which contract lump sum payments will be made are listed in the LINE ITEMS AND PRICING SCHEDULE and described below. All costs for items of work, which are not specifically mentioned to be included in a particular lump sum or unit price payment item, shall be included in the listed lump sum item most closely associated with the work involved. The lump sum price and payment made for each item listed shall constitute full compensation for furnishing all plant, labor, materials, and equipment, and performing any associated Contractor quality control, environmental protection, meeting safety requirements, tests and reports, and for performing all work required for which separate payment is not otherwise provided.

Progress payments for lump sum CLINs will be made in accordance with the Payments Under Fixed-Price Construction Contracts clause of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1. Provide a list of pay activities, (Schedule of Values) to breakdown bid for each lump sum CLIN. Within 20 calendar days after receiving Notice to Proceed, submit Schedule of Values for Government approval. An unbalanced Schedule of Values and Pay Activity Schedule will be returned for revision. If this contract contains either the Continuing Contracts clause or the Continuing Contracts (Alternate) clause, the Contractor should take into account the amount reserved for contract payments when preparing the construction schedule.

1.5.1 Construction/Vibration Control and Monitoring (Line Item 0003)

Payment will be made for costs associated with or incidental to the protection of existing structures from construction activities and monitoring. See Section 02 22 13 VIBRATION MONITORING REQUIREMENTS FOR

EXISTING STRUCTURES.

1.5.2 Environmental Species Monitoring Coordination (Line Item 0004)

Payment will be made for costs associated with or incidental to daily coordination with Miami-Dade County - Environment Resource Management (DERM) on their daily management of the monitoring of sea turtles, migratory birds, and other endangered species. Contacts to DERM will be provided at the Pre-construction conference. See Section 01 57 20

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION.

1.5.3 Turbidity Monitoring (Line Item 0005)

Payment will be made for costs associated with or incidental to obtaining, analyzing, and reporting the results of monitoring for turbidity. See Section 01 57 25 TURBIDITY AND DISPOSAL MONITORING.

1.6 UNIT PRICE PAYMENT ITEMS

Payment items for the work of this contract on which the contract unit price payments will be made are listed in the LINE ITEMS AND PRICING SCHEDULE and described below. The unit price and payment made for each item listed shall constitute full compensation for furnishing all plant, labor, materials, and equipment, and performing any associated Contractor quality control, environmental protection, meeting safety requirements, SECTION 01 22 00 Page 3 tests and reports, and for performing all work required for each of the unit price items.

Each Unit Price CLIN may be a single pay activity item or may be broken down into pay activities with smaller quantities equal to CLIN total.

Contract unit price multiplied by agreed quantity is full compensation.

1.6.1 Beach Fill (Line Item 0001)

1.6.1.1 Payment

a. Payment will be made for costs associated with or incidental to preparation of access areas, barricades and signs, debris removal, pipeline crossing, excavation and transportation of beach fill, constructing the beach profile and final dressing; noise control;

condition surveys; and restoration of all access areas to preconstruction condition or as otherwise indicated on the drawings.

See Sections 01 57 20 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION and 35 30 00 BEACH FILL.

b. In addition to the above, payment will be made for in-place beach fill to the tolerance line indicated in Section 35 30 00 BEACH FILL.

Payment quantities will be determined by the Government using average end area method of calculation. When beach fill is placed up-slope above slough zone to compensate for wave action, payment of end area will be based on a cut and fill calculation. No payment will be made for material placed on the up-slope above the tolerance A(u) that exceeds A(s) (Refer to Beach Fill Tolerance figure indicated in the paragraph CONSTRUCTION FORMS AND DETAILS of Section 35 30 00 BEACH

FILL).

c. The Government will pay 95 percent (withhold 05 percent) of progress and total payment made under this line item until all access areas have been restored as indicated above. This is not considered retainage under clause PAYMENTS UNDER FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES. This is considered payment withheld for work paid for under this line item which has not been performed. Acceptance of repairs to access routes may be subject to final approval of local permitting authorities.

1.6.1.2 Measurement

a. The maps and/or drawings already prepared (clause CONTRACT DRAWINGS, MAPS, AND SPECIFICATIONS of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1) are believed to represent accurately the existing conditions at the time the surveys were performed, but the depths and elevations shown thereon may be verified and corrected by elevations and soundings taken before commencing the work. Once quantities within a specified reach or section have been determined through the use of in-place measurement, they will not be reopened except on evidence of collusion, fraud, or obvious error.

b. Beach fill satisfactorily placed will be measured for payment by use of the average end area method. The quantities will be computed by the Government in accordance with clause QUANTITY SURVEYS of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1. Measurement of quantity placed for pay purposes will be based on original and final cross sections made on the section or reach indicated on the drawings. The Contractor shall give 3 calendar days advance notice, in writing, to the Contracting Officer's Representative of the need to perform the original and final

SECTION 01 22 00 Page 4 surveys. Quality Control Surveys shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. Monthly partial payments will be based on approximate quantities determined by measurement of the in-place beach fill and in accordance with clause QUANTITY SURVEYS of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1.

c. In accordance with clause QUANTITY SURVEYS of Section 00700 CONTRACT CLAUSES in Volume 1, the Government will perform pre- and post-construction topographic survey at 100-foot stations with elevations taken at 10-foot range intervals from the baseline to the toe slope elevation. In order to achieve final grade in slough zone, and account for natural fencing prior to Government survey, the Contractor shall place material to final grade within tolerance for the entire slope or may stockpile beach fill up-slope of the swash zone as long as the upslope fill volume above tolerance does not exceed volume on the foreshore slope below tolerance, known herein as the compensating slopes. After stockpiled beach fill is measure for payment, the Contractor shall produce a smooth uniform slope to within the acceptable tolerances of the final grade from the top of slope to the water line. Once post-construction survey is performed, no measurements will be revised except on suspicion of fraud or obvious error.

PART 2 PRODUCTS (NOT APPLICABLE)

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 PAYMENT PROCEDURES

Upon receiving initial Resident Management System import file, go to "Pay Activities" and establish a link between bid breakdown schedule of values of "Pay Activities" to contract CLINs using "Schedule Activities" data entry page.

3.1.1 Requesting Progress Payment

For progress payments, ensure "Activity Schedule", "Feature Schedule", submittal register, and punchlists are all up to date. Use "Progress Payments" to "request Activity Earnings" for both "Activity Earnings" data entry page and "Other Earning". Provide hard copies of supporting invoices and quantity measurements to support all requested earnings. Ensure that sum of payment activities do not exceed contract award CLIN funding amounts, or "unbalanced" CLINs error will prevent processing the payment.

3.1.2 Options and Modification CLINS

When additional work is added by modification, existing CLINs funding amounts must be updated, or new CLINs for modification will be created. If contract has option CLINs not yet awarded, option CLINs will appear as zero dollar CLINs until option is awarded by modification.

2.1 CHARACTER OF MATERIALS

2.1.1 Sand Sources

The Contractor shall use domestic upland sources of sand. The sand supplied shall be naturally created. The sand may be processed, but manufactured sand is not allowed. The sand must be composed of quartz and/or calcium carbonate with no more than 5 percent sand of other mineralogical compostion. No offshore sand sources shall be considered as an acceptable source. Submit source of beach quality fill and representative samples to the Government prior to construction. Submit grain size distribution and testing reports of borrow materials in accordance with paragraph QUALITY CONTROL FOR BEACH FILL below. The submitted sand samples will be used for verification laboratory testing of proposed submittals and for visual comparison by Government inspectors during construction. All sand sources shall meet NEPA and SHPO

SECTION 35 30 00 Page 7 requirements, and sand shall only be provided from the portions which are compliant.

The Contractor shall provide with the "Source of Fill" submittal all NEPA and SHPO letters and correspondence from all sources which indicate the portions that are compliant.

2.1.1.1 Physical Requirements

The Contractor shall have on-site personnel to visually monitor the sand being stockpiled at the sand mine for beach placement. The selected individual shall have training or experience in beach nourishment, construction inspection and testing, and be knowledgeable of the contract requirements and permit conditions. The Contractor shall perform daily visual observation of the fill material during construction by personnel who can identify obvious changes in beach fill quality. The Contractor shall conduct testing and sampling at the mine at an interval not to exceed 3,000 tons to confirm compliance of beach fill with the specifications.

Beach fill sampling and testing shall be in accordance with the following procedures:

a.) Each sample shall be archived with the date, time, and location of the sample. The sample shall be visually compared to the compliance criteria provided in Table 1. All samples shall be stored until project completion.

b. Should any stockpile sample not comply with the compliance criteria stated above, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer at the first available normal business hour. Should stockpile samples not comply with the compliance criteria, the Contracting Officer shall be notified immediately and take necessary actions to avoid placement of noncompliant material.

c.d. If requested by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall take the collected stockpile sample for analysis of grain size distribution, Munsell color, carbonate content, and percent visual shell by a certified laboratory. Gradation analysis shall be performed according to ASTM D422. U.S. Standard sieve sizes shall include 3/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and numbers 4, 7, 10, 14, 18, 25, 35, 45, 60, 80, 120, 170, 200, and 230. The results shall be sent to the Contracting Officer within two (2) weeks.

2.1.1.2 HTRW Evaluation for Sand Source

Comply with Rule 62B-41.007(2)(j)(4), F.A.C. which states that fill material shall be free from any toxic materials. If the borrow site contains or is suspected of containing HTRW, environmental contaminants or otherwise toxic materials, it shall not be used as a borrow source. All material brought in as part of this contract shall be environmentally clean and free from any such materials and shall not exceed the Soil Cleanup Target Levels for both "Direct Exposure" as well as "Leachability Based on Marine Surface Water Criteria" mentioned in the Soil Cleanup Standards in Chapter 62-777, Florida Administrative Code. If contaminant levels of the borrow material exceed the mean naturally occurring contaminant levels at the beach area, the site shall not be used as a borrow source. The measurements shall also fall within 2 standard deviation or suspect high values will be determined to be the most conservative representation of the results. Elutriate values shall be compared to state water quality standards to determine whether runoff will violate state standards.

SECTION 35 30 00 Page 8

Approval of the Environmental and HTRW Report will not relieve the Contractor of their responsibility to document such conditions and to avoid contaminating any portion of the beach placement area with substandard material. The submittal requirements for this report will depend on the borrow source.
