1.1 SUMMARY

A. This Section includes the following:

1. Work covered by the Contract Documents.

2. Use of premises.

3. Government’s occupancy requirements.

4. Work restrictions.

5. Specification formats and conventions.

1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

A. Project Identification: Repair Military Taxiway, Project No. TQKD022200

1. Project Location: Portland Air National Guard Base, 6801 NE Cornfoot Road, Portland, Oregon.

B. The Work consists of the following:

1. The Work includes Asphalt milling and paving; airfield safety and security; airfield marking; taxiway centerline lights; a power regulator; and airfield lighting controls.

C. The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work by the Contractor. The Contract Documents are complimentary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all. Performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the intended results. The Contractor will understand that the work herein described shall be complete in every detail, not withstanding every item necessarily involved is not particularly mentioned and the Contractor shall be held to provide all labor and material for the entire work intended to be described.

D. The Contractor is responsible for construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures. The drawings are graphical in nature and intended to convey the scope of the work to be performed. The Contractor is responsible for determining what is necessary to construct complete and functioning buildings and systems as may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents

1.3 USE OF PREMISES

A. The project is on a closed Base and, as such, only those persons granted permission may enter. It is, therefore, required that control be exercised over Contractor personnel while working on the Base. To maintain this control, a listing of all Contractor personnel who will be working under the contract, must be submitted to the Contracting Officer five working days prior to the start of work under the contract. The preferred method of providing this list is via email, to the contract administrator. The listing shall include, but not limited to: contract number, project number, employee name, and the estimated starting and ending date of each employee.

01100 - 2 MEAD & HUNT, Inc.

Subsequent listings of all additions or deletions will be submitted as employees are hired or released.

B. During construction, the Contractor shall permit base personnel access to the facilities within the work area. The Contractor shall provide protection to persons and property throughout the progress of the work.

C. In the event of a declared National Emergency the Contracting Officer may be required to stop work on this contract for security reasons. Contractor shall ensure the Contracting Officer has a current “Off Duty” contact name and telephone number at all times to facilitate notification.

D. The Contractor shall inform all personnel working under his jurisdiction (including sub-contractor and visiting supplier personnel) that access to areas outside of the immediate work area excluding, direct haul and access routes, contracting and Civil Engineering offices and point of supply and storage is prohibited. Circulation of said personnel will be limited to official business only. Persons in violation of the above will be apprehended and appropriately disciplined.

1.4 GOVERNMENT’S OCCUPANCY REQUIREMENTS

A. Government will occupy the site adjacent construction during the entire construction period and will occupy phases of construction already complete or not yet complete. Occupancy includes operating aircraft in areas adjacent the construction where no debris of any kind can exist, either intentionally or unintentionally. Cooperate with Government during construction operations to minimize conflicts and facilitate Government usage. Perform the Work so as not to interfere with Government’s day-to-day operations.

1. Provide not less than two week’s notice to Government of activities that will affect

Government’s operations.

B. Government Occupancy:

1. The Government shall have the right to take possession of or use any completed or partially completed part of the work. Before taking possession of or using any work, the Contracting Officer shall furnish the Contractor a list of items of work remaining to be performed or corrected on those portions of the work that the Government intends to take possession of or use. However, failure of the Contracting Officer to list any item of work shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for complying with the terms of the contract. The Government’s possession or use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any work under the contract.

2. While the Government has such possession or use, the Contractor shall be relieved of the responsibility for the loss of or damage to the work resulting from the Government’s possession or use, notwithstanding the terms of the clause in this contract entitled “Permits and Responsibilities.”

1.5 WORK RESTRICTIONS

A. Normal base work hours for the Contractor will be between the hours of 7:15 AM thru 4:00 PM, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal Holidays. If the Contractor desires to work during periods other than above, he must notify the Contracting Officer three (3) working days in advance of his intention to work during other periods to allow assignment of additional inspection forces and for notification of fire, security and safety. When the Contracting Officer determines that they are reasonably available, he may authorize the Contractor to perform work during periods other than normal duty hours/days. However, if inspectors are required to

01100 - 3 MEAD & HUNT, Inc.

perform in excess of their normal duty hours/days solely for the benefit of the Contractor, the actual cost of the inspection, at overtime rates, will be charged to the Contractor and will be deducted from the final payment of the Contract amount.

B. The following Federal legal Holidays are observed by this Base:

New Year's Day 1 January Martin Luther's King's Birthday Third Monday of January President's Day Third Monday of February Memorial Day Last Monday of May Independence Day 4 July Labor Day First Monday in September Columbus Day Second Monday in October Veteran's Day 11 November Thanksgiving Day Fourth Thursday in November Christmas Day 25 December

C. NOTE: Any of the above holidays falling on a Saturday will be observed the preceding Friday, holidays falling on a Sunday will be observed on the following Monday.

D. Prior to commencing work on the job initially, resumption of work after prolonged interruption (7 calendar days or more) commencement of any warranty work, and upon completion of warranty work, the Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer (or his/her Contracting Officer Representative). When relocating to new sites, returning to sites for follow-up work on a phased work plan, notification to the Contracting Officer’s Representative is sufficient.

Notification should be by personal contact; however, advance notification may be by telephone, or in writing, and should be accomplished sufficiently in advance to allow scheduling of inspection forces. The above precautions are to ensure construction inspection and recording of work proceedings.

E. Existing Utility Interruptions: Do not interrupt utilities serving facilities occupied by the Government and others unless permitted under the following conditions and then only after arranging to provide temporary utility services according to requirements indicated:

1. Notify COR not less than two weeks in advance of proposed utility interruptions.

2. Do not proceed with utility interruption without COR written permission.

1.6 SPECIFICATION FORMATS AND CONVENTIONS

A. The organization of the specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, and the arrangement of the drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the work among Subcontractor or in establishing the extent of the work to be performed by any trade.

B. Specification Format: The Specifications are organized into Divisions and Sections.

1. Section Identification: The Specifications use Section numbers and titles to help cross-referencing in the Contract Documents. Sections in the Project Manual are in numeric sequence; however, the sequence is incomplete because all available Section numbers are not used. Consult the table of contents at the beginning of the Project Manual to determine numbers and names of Sections in the Contract Documents.

2. Division 1: Sections in Division 1 govern the execution of the Work of all Sections in the Specifications.
