Data and information furnished or referred to below is for the Contractor's information. The Government shall not be responsible for any interpretation of or conclusion drawn from the data or information by the Contractor.
(a) The indications of physical conditions on the drawings and in the specifications are the result of site investigations by surveys.
(b) Weather Conditions. Under ordinary conditions, the mean tidal range is about 1.5 feet. The height of tide is largely dependent on the force, direction, and duration of the wind. Strong northerly winds may depress the water surface as much as, and in some instances more than 2 feet below Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), while southerly winds may raise the water surface as much as, and in some instances more than 4 feet above MLLW.
( c) Cont r act or shoul d expect t o encount er shoal r at es i n excess of 20, 000 cubi c yar ds per mont h i n t he Bol i var Fl ar e, Sect i ons 19 and 20.

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.

Measurement and payment for pipeline dredging will be paid for in accordance with provisions of the SECTION 01 22 00.10 MEASUREMENT AND
PAYMENT.
1.3 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT PRICE
Base bids on the quantity of dredging indicated. If the total quantity of dredging varies from that specified as the basis for bidding, the Contract price will be adjusted in accordance with the CONTRACT CLAUSE 52.211.18 VARIATION IN ESTIMATED QUANTITY. The dredging conditions specified and indicated describe conditions which are known. However, the Contractor is responsible for other conditions encountered which are not unusual when compared to the conditions recognized in the dredging business as usual in dredging activities such as those required under this Contract. The Contract price for dredging will include the cost of removal and placement of the material as specified in the Paragraphs: MATERIAL TO BE REMOVED and PLACEMENT OF EXCAVATED MATERIAL. The Contract price for dredging will include the costs for maintenance of dikes and ditches necessary to confine the material within the areas shown.
1.3.1 Existing Conditions
The drawings already prepared as specified in the CONTRACT CLAUSE 252.236-7001 CONTRACT DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS represent conditions existing as of the date of their preparation using average existing conditions. However, to reflect anticipated shoaling or scour occurring between the dates of preparation of the drawings and the dates of the "before-dredging" sections, the estimated dredging quantities stated in the Bid Schedule have been adjusted accordingly. The depths and elevations shown will be verified and corrected by fathometer soundings taken by the Government before dredging. The Government will normally use a frequency of 200 kHz to conduct hydrographic surveys. If the surveys indicate the presence of fluff in the channel, a frequency of 40 kHz will be used. Determination of quantities removed and the deductions made from them to determine quantities by in-place measurement to be paid for in the area specified, after having once been made will not be reopened, except on evidence of collusion, fraud, or obvious error.

1.17 FINAL EXAMINATION AND ACCEPTANCE
As soon as practicable after the completion of the entire work or any section thereof, if the work is divided into sections and in the opinion of the Contracting Officer will not be subject to damage by further operations under this Contract, this work will be thoroughly examined at the expense of the Government by sounding or by sweeping, or both, as directed. If shoals, lumps, or other lack of Contract depth are disclosed by this examination, the Contractor will be required to remove same by dragging the bottom or by dredging at the Contract rate for dredging but, if the bottom is soft and the shoal areas are small and form no material obstruction to navigation, the removal of the shoal may be waived at the discretion of the Contracting Officer. The Contractor or its authorized representative will be notified when soundings or sweepings are to be made and will be permitted to accompany the survey party. When the area is found to be in a satisfactory condition it will be accepted finally. If more than two sounding or sweeping operations by the Government over an area are necessary, by reason of work for the removal of shoals disclosed at a prior sounding or sweeping, the cost of the third and any subsequent sounding or sweeping operations will be charged against the Contractor at the rate of $10,628.00 per day for each day in which the Government plant is engaged in sounding or sweeping or is enroute to or from the site or held at or near the site for these operations.
1.17.1 Acceptance
Final acceptance of the whole or a part of the work and the deductions or corrections of deductions made thereon will not be reopened after having once been made, except on evidence of collusion, fraud, or obvious error, and the acceptance of a completed section will not change the time of payment of the retained percentages of the whole or any part of the work.
1.18 SHOALS
If, before this Contract is completed, shoals occur in a section previously accepted, redredging at the Contract price, within the limit of available funds, may be done if agreeable to both the Contractor and the Contracting Officer.
1.19 UNANTICIPATED SHOALING
During the course of this Contract, unanticipated dredging requirements may develop that require the use of the Contractor and Contractor's plant. The dredging required would be similar in scope to that required under the current Contract. Dredging would consist of limited portions of a section of channel, intended to remove critical shoals hindering commercial navigation. If such a need arises, the Contracting Officer may issue a Request for Proposal for the work under the CONTRACT CLAUSE 52.243-4 CHANGES, and the work performed upon the execution of a bilateral contract modification.
1.20 VARIATION IN ESTIMATED QUANTITIES - DREDGING
Where the quantity of a pay item in this Contract is an estimated quantity and where the actual quantity of material within the required dredging prism varies, an equitable adjustment will be processed in accordance with CONTRACT CLAUSE 52.211-18, VARIATION IN ESTIMATED QUANTITY (April 1984).
SECTION 35 20 23.16 45 Page 12
The equitable adjustment applies only to the quantity within the required dredging prism, which does not include the allowable overdepth.
If the total quantity of material to be paid for and actually removed under this Contract exceeds the limit established by CONTRACT CLAUSE 52.211-18, VARIATION IN ESTIMATED QUANTITY (April 1984), an additional time will be allowed at the rate of 1 calendar day for each 10,000 cubic yards in excess of the established limit. The Contractor is not to exceed the estimated quantities in the Contract Line Items without prior authorization and only with a signed modification issued by the Contracting Officer.
1.21 CONTINUITY OF WORK
