1.2.2 Adjustment for Other Than 5 Day Work Week
Monthly baseline adverse weather delays shall be adjusted proportionately
DOCUMENT 00 74 01 Page 2 when the actual work week be based on more or less than 5 work days (i.e.
if a 6 day work week, the baseline adverse weather delay work days for a month would be adjusted by multiplying the number shown above by 6/5). Any fractional amount will be rounded to the nearest whole number (e.g. 4.1 will round to 4 and 4.6 will round to 5).
1.2.3 Incorporation in Project Schedule
The Contractor's progress schedule must reflect these baseline adverse weather delays in all weather dependent activities. Refer to Section 01 32 01PROJECT SCHEDULE (NAU) or Section 01 32 16 SMALL PROJECT PROJECT SCHEDULES (NAU) for the procedures for incorporating the baseline adverse weather days into the schedule.

Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and continuing throughout the contract performance period, the contractor will record on the CQC report, the occurrence of adverse weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Impacted activities shall be identified by name and activity id on the CQC report.
When the use of RMS-CM (Section 01 45 01 RESIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - CONTRACTOR MODE) is required by the contract, adverse weather days shall be reported on the QC Report in RMS-CM and tracked therein.
3.2 OCCURRENCE OF ACTUAL DELAY
To be considered a day of actual weather delay, progress on critical path activities must be less than 50 percent of the progress scheduled to occur on that day, and the progress must be impacted due solely to the adverse weather.
3.3 CALCULATION OF ACTUAL DELAY AND CONVERSION TO CALENDAR DAYS
The number of actual adverse weather delay days shall include days impacted by actual adverse weather (even if adverse weather occurred in previous month), be calculated chronologically from the first to the last day of each month, and be recorded as full days. Any fractional amount will be rounded to the next whole number (e.g. 4.1 will round to 5).
DOCUMENT 00 74 01 Page 3
This calculation is performed automatically within RMS-CM under the "Weather Delays" screens of the QA/QC Module, and shall serve as the basis for the calculation when RMS-CM is required by contract.
3.4 ISSUANCE OF MODIFICATION
If the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days identified in paragraph 1.2, above, the Contracting Officer will convert any qualifying delays to calendar days, giving full consideration for equivalent fair weather work days, and issue a modification in accordance with the contract clause 52.249-10 entitled "Default (Fixed Price Construction)".
Modifications will normally be issued no more than quarterly (once every three months) when actual weather delays exceed the baseline and will identify, by month, the applicable time extension. When the actual weather delays do not exceed the baseline for all months in a quarter, no modification will be issued but will be included in the next quarterly weather modification.
3.5 DELAYS BEYOND REQUIRED COMPLETION DATE
When the contract performance period, or any extension thereof, has passed, no extensions for unusually severe weather will be granted.

c. Installation geospatial data shall be provided in a Personal Geodatabase compliant with SDSFIE.
d. Features shall be stored in GIS Personal Geodatabase complying with "Army IGI&S Program - Geospatial Data Layer - Quality Assurance Plan (QAP)" version 4.0 (type of geometry, type of data, geographic representation, positional accuracy, attribute accuracy, completeness, logical consistency, lineage…). All data shall be topologically sound and geometrically correct. This includes no null or empty features, no non-simple features and no duplicate features. All data shall meet the basic topology rule set for installation geospatial data. Exceptions to the topology rules are possible. In case of an exception, a justification must be provided in the data layer documentation. If no QAP exists for the data layers developed, Contractor shall coordinate with the COR.
e. The bounding coordinates to capture the north, south, east, and west-most spatial extents of the geospatial data layers will be based on Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Zone, meters. At a minimum, feature types within the database should have a spatial reference with a precision of 1,000. The horizontal datum to be utilized is World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84), and the vertical datum shall be Mean Sea Level (MSL) as determined by the Earth Gravitational Model 2008 (EGM2008) Geoid. For mapping purposes, WGS 1984 UTM Zone 32N, meter, is the preferred defined projection.
3.4.2 Data Layer Rules
For each applicable Data Layer, Attributes Table shall be populated, at the minimum, with the "Required Populated Attributes" listed in the specific Chapter (usually the last one) of the QAPs. If additional Attribute Field are requested as part of the Contract, they will be specified in a specific section of the present Contract. If the additional Fields are not part of the SDSFIE, they will be provided separately (i.e. with a spreadsheet
DOCUMENT 00 74 17 Page 9 properly joined with the Data Layer through a convenient key link; i.e. a separate business table with the custom data may be created, using the data layer primary key as the join attribute);
Each data layer shall be accompanied by metadata conforming to the "Metadata Requirements for Army IGI&S Geospatial Data". Populate the metadata for each feature type to meet the minimum requirements contained in the "Metadata Requirements for Army IGI&S Geospatial Data".
Unless provided for elsewhere in the contract, the following rules apply to data layers:
