1.2.1 Periodic Progress Charts

In consonance with the Contract Clause, SCHEDULES FOR CONSTRUCTION

CONTRACTS, the Contractor shall be guided by the following requirements and procedures as pertain to submission of an initial and subsequent periodic construction progress charts. These charts as approved and updated shall provide the basis for determination of the amounts of partial payments.

1.2.2 Progress Chart (ENG Form 2454)

1.2.3 Preparation of Progress Chart

The Contractor shall indicate on the progress chart the bid items contained in the contract, showing the amount of the item and its relative weighted percentage of the total contract. The Contractor may separate features of work under each item to show salient work elements such as procurement of materials, plant, and equipment, and supplemental work elements such as excavation, reinforcing steel, backfill, etc.

These salient features shall total to the cost and weighted percentages shown for the major bid item. When quantity variations impact the weighted percentage of a separate item by five percent or more, the Contractor shall revise the contract progress charts to accurately reflect the impact of such variations. The Notice to Proceed (NTP) date and Contract Completion Date shall be indicated on the Progress Chart by a heavy black vertical line at the proper locations.

(LOCAL 52.236-4100 ER 415-1-15)

(a) This clause specifies the procedure for determination of time extensions for unusually severe weather in accordance with the clause entitled DEFAULT (FIXED-PRICE CONSTRUCTION). In order for the Contracting Officer to award a time extension under this clause, the following conditions must be satisfied:

(1) The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must be found to be unusually severe, that is, more severe than the adverse weather anticipated for the project location during any given month.

(2) The unusually severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

(b) The following schedules of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays are based on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or similar data for the project location and will constitute the base line for monthly weather time evaluations. The Contractor's progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse weather delays in all weather dependent activities.

Actual adverse weather delay days must prevent work on critical activities for 50 percent or more of the contractor's scheduled work day. 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. If the number of actual adverse weather delay days exceeds the number of days anticipated in paragraph (b) 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 entitled DEFAULT (FIXED-PRICE

CONSTRUCTION/REPAIR

SECTION 01312 PAGE 5

reports is reflective of the quality of the data input, and is maintained in the various sections of QCS. Among these reports are: Progress Payment Request worksheet, QA/QC comments, Submittal Register Status, Three-Phase Inspection checklists.

1.6.2 Finances

1.6.2.1 Pay Activity Data
