The contractor must provide topsoil if onsite material is insufficient, coordinate all utility relocations and associated costs, remove construction debris, and repair any damaged existing infrastructure. All work must comply with Fayette County Standard Specifications and Regulations, the Manual for Erosion and Sediment Control in Georgia (latest edition), and OSHA directives for excavation and trenching.
