1.02 Terminology
A. The words and terms discussed in the
following paragraphs are not defined but,
when used in the Bidding Requirements or
Contract Documents, have the indicated
meaning.
B. Intent of Certain Terms or Adjectives:
The Contract Documents include the
terms “as allowed,” “as approved,” “as
ordered,” “as directed” or terms of like
effect or import to authorize an exercise
of professional judgment by Engineer. In
addition, the adjectives “reasonable,”
“suitable,” “acceptable,” “proper,”
“satisfactory,” or adjectives of like effect
or import are used to describe an action
or determination of Engineer as to the
Work. It is intended that such exercise of
professional judgment, action, or

in general, the Work for compliance with
the information in the Contract
Documents and with the design concept
of the Project as a functioning whole as
shown or indicated in the Contract
Documents (unless there is a specific
statement indicating otherwise). The use
of any such term or adjective is not
intended to and shall not be effective to
assign to Engineer any duty or authority
to supervise or direct the performance of
the Work, or any duty or authority to
undertake responsibility contrary to the
provisions of Article 10 or any other
provision of the Contract Documents.
C. Day:
The word “day” means a calendar day of
24 hours measured from midnight to the
next midnight.
D. Defective:
The word “defective,” when modifying
the word “Work,” refers to Work that is
unsatisfactory, faulty, or deficient in that
it:
a. does not conform to the Contract
Documents; or
b. does not meet the requirements of
any applicable inspection,
reference standard, test, or
approval referred to in the Contract
Documents; or
c. has been damaged prior to
Engineer’s recommendation of
final payment (unless
responsibility for the protection
thereof has been assumed by
Owner at Substantial Completion
in accordance with Paragraph
15.03 or 15.04).
E. Furnish, Install, Perform, Provide:
The word “furnish,” when used in
connection with services, materials, or
equipment, shall mean to supply and
deliver said services, materials, or
equipment to the Site (or some other
specified location) ready for use or
installation and in usable or operable
condition.
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.

Owner with respect to Contract
Price and Contract Times by the
submission of a Bid or becoming
bound under a negotiated contract,
or otherwise; or
b. the existence of such condition
reasonably could have been
discovered or revealed as a result of
any examination, investigation,
exploration, test, or study of the
Site and contiguous areas expressly
required by the Bidding
Requirements or Contract
Documents to be conducted by or
for Contractor prior to Contractor’s
making such commitment; or
c. Contractor failed to give the
written notice as required by
Paragraph 5.04.A.

and
Technical Data contained in such reports
and drawings.
B. Reliance by Contractor on Technical Data
Authorized: Contractor may rely upon the
accuracy of the Technical Data expressly
identified in the Supplementary Conditions
with respect to such reports and drawings, but
such reports and drawings are not Contract
Documents. If no such express identification
has been made, then Contractor may rely on
the accuracy of the Technical Data (as defined
in Article 1) contained in any geotechnical or
environmental report prepared for the Project
and made available to Contractor. Except for
such reliance on Technical Data, Contractor
may not rely upon or make any claim against
Owner or Engineer, or any of their officers,
directors, members, partners, employees,
agents, consultants, or subcontractors with
respect to:
the completeness of such reports and
drawings for Contractor’s purposes,
including, but not limited to, any aspects
of the means, methods, techniques,
sequences and procedures of
construction to be employed by
Contractor and safety precautions and
programs incident thereto; or
other data, interpretations, opinions and
information contained in such reports or
shown or indicated in such drawings; or
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.

and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 14 of 52
any Contractor interpretation of or
conclusion drawn from any Technical
Data or any such other data,
interpretations, opinions or information.
C. Contractor shall not be responsible for
removing or remediating any Hazardous
Environmental Condition encountered,
uncovered, or revealed at the Site unless such
removal or remediation is expressly identified
in the Contract Documents to be within the
scope of the Work.
D. Contractor shall be responsible for
controlling, containing, and duly removing all
Constituents of Concern brought to the Site by
Contractor, Subcontractors, Suppliers, or
anyone else for whom Contractor is
responsible, and for any associated costs; and
for the costs of removing and remediating any
Hazardous Environmental Condition created
by the presence of any such Constituents of
Concern.
E. If Contractor encounters, uncovers, or reveals
a Hazardous Environmental Condition whose
removal or remediation is not expressly
identified in the Contract Documents as being
within the scope of the Work, or if Contractor
or anyone for whom Contractor is responsible
creates a Hazardous Environmental
Condition, then Contractor shall immediately:
(1) secure or otherwise isolate such condition;
(2) stop all Work in connection with such
condition and in any area affected thereby
(except in an emergency as required by
Paragraph 7.15); and (3) notify Owner and
Engineer (and promptly thereafter confirm
such notice in writing). Owner shall promptly
consult with Engineer concerning the
necessity for Owner to retain a qualified
expert to evaluate such condition or take
corrective action, if any. Promptly after
consulting with Engineer, Owner shall take
such actions as are necessary to permit Owner
to timely obtain required permits and provide
Contractor the written notice required by
Paragraph 5.06.F. If Contractor or anyone for
whom Contractor is responsible created the
Hazardous Environmental Condition in
question, then Owner may remove and
remediate the Hazardous Environmental
Condition, and impose a set-off against
payments to account for the associated costs.
F. Contractor shall not resume Work in
connection with such Hazardous
Environmental Condition or in any affected
area until after Owner has obtained any
required permits related thereto, and delivered
written notice to Contractor either (1)
specifying that such condition and any
affected area is or has been rendered safe for
the resumption of Work, or (2) specifying any
special conditions under which such Work
may be resumed safely.
G. If Owner and Contractor cannot agree as to
entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if
any, of any adjustment in Contract Price or
Contract Times, or both, as a result of such
Work stoppage or such special conditions
under which Work is agreed to be resumed by
Contractor, then within 30 days of Owner’s
written notice regarding the resumption of
Work, Contractor may submit a Change
Proposal, or Owner may impose a set-off.
H. If after receipt of such written notice
Contractor does not agree to resume such
Work based on a reasonable belief it is unsafe,
or does not agree to resume such Work under
such special conditions, then Owner may
order the portion of the Work that is in the area
affected by such condition to be deleted from
the Work, following the contractual change
procedures in Article 11. Owner may have
such deleted portion of the Work performed
by Owner’s own forces or others in
accordance with Article 8.
I. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, Owner shall indemnify and hold
harmless Contractor, Subcontractors, and
Engineer, and the officers, directors,
members, partners, employees, agents,
consultants, and subcontractors of each and
any of them from and against all claims, costs,
losses, and damages (including but not limited
to all fees and charges of engineers, architects,
attorneys, and other professionals and all court
or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to a Hazardous
Environmental Condition, provided that such
Hazardous Environmental Condition (1) was
not shown or indicated in the Drawings,
Specifications, or other Contract Documents,
identified as Technical Data entitled to limited
reliance pursuant to Paragraph 5.06.B, or
identified in the Contract Documents to be
included within the scope of the Work, and (2)
was not created by Contractor or by anyone
for whom Contractor is responsible. Nothing
in this Paragraph 5.06.H shall obligate Owner
to indemnify any individual or entity from and
against the consequences of that individual’s
or entity’s own negligence.
J. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, Contractor shall indemnify and

officers, directors, members, partners,
employees, agents, consultants, and
subcontractors of each and any of them from
and against all claims, costs, losses, and
damages (including but not limited to all fees
and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys,
and other professionals and all court or
arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to the failure to
control, contain, or remove a Constituent of
Concern brought to the Site by Contractor or
by anyone for whom Contractor is
responsible, or to a Hazardous Environmental
Condition created by Contractor or by anyone
for whom Contractor is responsible. Nothing
in this Paragraph 5.06.J shall obligate
Contractor to indemnify any individual or
entity from and against the consequences of
that individual’s or entity’s own negligence.
K. The provisions of Paragraphs 5.03, 5.04, and
5.05 do not apply to the presence of
Constituents of Concern or to a Hazardous
Environmental Condition uncovered or
revealed at the Site.

Completion and partial occupancy or use
of the Work by Owner, until the Work is
complete.
B. Notice of Cancellation or Change: All the
policies of insurance (and the certificates or
other evidence thereof) required to be
purchased and maintained in accordance with
this Paragraph 6.05 will contain a provision or
endorsement that the coverage afforded will
not be canceled or materially changed or

insurance provisions of the Contract do not
require or address the insurance of a property
item or interest, such as tools, construction
equipment, or other personal property owned
by Contractor, a Subcontractor, or an
employee of Contractor or a Subcontractor,
then the entity or individual owning such
property item will be responsible for deciding
whether to insure it, and if so in what amount.

CONTRACTOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES
7.01 Supervision and Superintendence
A. Contractor shall supervise, inspect, and direct
the Work competently and efficiently,
devoting such attention thereto and applying
such skills and expertise as may be necessary
to perform the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. Contractor shall be
solely responsible for the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, and procedures of
construction.
B. At all times during the progress of the Work,
Contractor shall assign a competent resident
superintendent who shall not be replaced
without written notice to Owner and Engineer
except under extraordinary circumstances.
7.02 Labor; Working Hours
A. Contractor shall provide competent, suitably
qualified personnel to survey and lay out the
Work and perform construction as required by
the Contract Documents. Contractor shall at
all times maintain good discipline and order at
the Site.
B. Except as otherwise required for the safety or
protection of persons or the Work or property
at the Site or adjacent thereto, and except as
otherwise stated in the Contract Documents,
all Work at the Site shall be performed during
regular working hours, Monday through
Friday. Contractor will not perform Work on
a Saturday, Sunday, or any legal holiday.
Contractor may perform Work outside regular
working hours or on Saturdays, Sundays, or
legal holidays only with Owner’s written
consent, which will not be unreasonably
withheld.
7.03 Services, Materials, and Equipment
A. Unless otherwise specified in the Contract
Documents, Contractor shall provide and
assume full responsibility for all services,
materials, equipment, labor, transportation,
construction equipment and machinery, tools,
appliances, fuel, power, light, heat, telephone,
water, sanitary facilities, temporary facilities,
and all other facilities and incidentals
necessary for the performance, testing, start
up, and completion of the Work, whether or
not such items are specifically called for in the
Contract Documents.
B. All materials and equipment incorporated into
the Work shall be of good quality and new,
except as otherwise provided in the Contract
Documents. All special warranties and
guarantees required by the Specifications shall
expressly run to the benefit of Owner. If
required by Engineer, Contractor shall furnish

C. All materials and equipment shall be stored,
applied, installed, connected, erected,
protected, used, cleaned, and conditioned in
accordance with instructions of the applicable
Supplier, except as otherwise may be provided
in the Contract Documents.
7.04 “Or Equals”
A. Whenever an item of material or equipment is
specified or described in the Contract
Documents by using the name of a proprietary
item or the name of a particular Supplier, the
Contract Price has been based upon
Contractor furnishing such item as specified.
The specification or description of such an
item is intended to establish the type, function,
appearance, and quality required. Unless the
specification or description contains or is
followed by words reading that no like,
equivalent, or “or equal” item is permitted,
Contractor may request that Engineer
authorize the use of other items of material or
equipment, or items from other proposed
suppliers under the circumstances described
below.
If Engineer in its sole discretion
determines that an item of material or
equipment proposed by Contractor is
functionally equal to that named and
sufficiently similar so that no change in
related Work will be required, Engineer
shall deem it an “or equal” item. For the
purposes of this paragraph, a proposed
item of material or equipment will be
considered functionally equal to an item
so named if:
a. in the exercise of reasonable
judgment Engineer determines
that:
it is at least equal in materials
of construction, quality,
durability, appearance,
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 22 of 52
strength, and design
characteristics;
it will reliably perform at least
equally well the function and
achieve the results imposed
by the design concept of the
completed Project as a
functioning whole;
it has a proven record of
performance and availability
of responsive service; and
it is not objectionable to
Owner.
b. Contractor certifies that, if
approved and incorporated into the
Work:
there will be no increase in
cost to the Owner or increase
in Contract Times; and
it will conform substantially
to the detailed requirements
of the item named in the
Contract Documents.
B. Contractor’s Expense: Contractor shall
provide all data in support of any proposed “or
equal” item at Contractor’s expense.
C. Engineer’s Evaluation and Determination:
Engineer will be allowed a reasonable time to
evaluate each “or-equal” request. Engineer
may require Contractor to furnish additional
data about the proposed “or-equal” item.
Engineer will be the sole judge of
acceptability. No “or-equal” item will be
ordered, furnished, installed, or utilized until
Engineer’s review is complete and Engineer
determines that the proposed item is an “or-
equal”, which will be evidenced by an
approved Shop Drawing or other written
communication. Engineer will advise
Contractor in writing of any negative
determination.
D. Effect of Engineer’s Determination: Neither
approval nor denial of an “or-equal” request
shall result in any change in Contract Price.
The Engineer’s denial of an “or-equal” request
shall be final and binding, and may not be
reversed through an appeal under any
provision of the Contract Documents.
E. Treatment as a Substitution Request: If
Engineer determines that an item of material
or equipment proposed by Contractor does not
qualify as an “or-equal” item, Contractor may
request that Engineer considered the proposed
item as a substitute pursuant to Paragraph
7.05.
7.05 Substitutes
A. Unless the specification or description of an
item of material or equipment required to be
furnished under the Contract Documents
contains or is followed by words reading that
no substitution is permitted, Contractor may
request that Engineer authorize the use of
other items of material or equipment under the
circumstances described below. To the extent
possible such requests shall be made before
commencement of related construction at the
Site.
Contractor shall submit sufficient
information as provided below to allow
Engineer to determine if the item of
material or equipment proposed is
functionally equivalent to that named
and an acceptable substitute therefor.
Engineer will not accept requests for
review of proposed substitute items of
material or equipment from anyone other
than Contractor.
The requirements for review by
Engineer will be as set forth in Paragraph
7.05.B, as supplemented by the
Specifications, and as Engineer may
decide is appropriate under the
circumstances.
Contractor shall make written
application to Engineer for review of a
proposed substitute item of material or
equipment that Contractor seeks to
furnish or use. The application:
a. shall certify that the proposed
substitute item will:
perform adequately the
functions and achieve the
results called for by the
general design,
be similar in substance to that
specified, and
be suited to the same use as
that specified.
b. will state:
the extent, if any, to which the
use of the proposed substitute
item will necessitate a change
in Contract Times,
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 23 of 52
whether use of the proposed
substitute item in the Work
will require a change in any of
the Contract Documents (or
in the provisions of any other
direct contract with Owner
for other work on the Project)
to adapt the design to the
proposed substitute item, and
whether incorporation or use
of the proposed substitute
item in connection with the
Work is subject to payment of
any license fee or royalty.
c. will identify:
all variations of the proposed
substitute item from that
specified, and
available engineering, sales,
maintenance, repair, and
replacement services.
d. shall contain an itemized estimate
of all costs or credits that will result
directly or indirectly from use of
such substitute item, including but
not limited to changes in Contract
Price, shared savings, costs of
redesign, and claims of other
contractors affected by any
resulting change.
B. Engineer’s Evaluation and Determination:
Engineer will be allowed a reasonable time to
evaluate each substitute request, and to obtain
comments and direction from Owner.
Engineer may require Contractor to furnish
additional data about the proposed substitute
item. Engineer will be the sole judge of
acceptability. No substitute will be ordered,
furnished, installed, or utilized until
Engineer’s review is complete and Engineer
determines that the proposed item is an
acceptable substitute. Engineer’s
determination will be evidenced by a Field
Order or a proposed Change Order accounting
for the substitution itself and all related
impacts, including changes in Contract Price
or Contract Times. Engineer will advise
Contractor in writing of any negative
determination.
C. Special Guarantee: Owner may require
Contractor to furnish at Contractor’s expense
a special performance guarantee or other
surety with respect to any substitute.
D. Reimbursement of Engineer’s Cost: Engineer
will record Engineer’s costs in evaluating a
substitute proposed or submitted by
Contractor. Whether or not Engineer approves
a substitute so proposed or submitted by
Contractor, Contractor shall reimburse Owner
for the reasonable charges of Engineer for
evaluating each such proposed substitute.
Contractor shall also reimburse Owner for the
reasonable charges of Engineer for making
changes in the Contract Documents (or in the
provisions of any other direct contract with
Owner) resulting from the acceptance of each
proposed substitute.
E. Contractor’s Expense: Contractor shall
provide all data in support of any proposed
substitute at Contractor’s expense.
F. Effect of Engineer’s Determination: If
Engineer approves the substitution request,
Contractor shall execute the proposed Change
Order and proceed with the substitution. The
Engineer’s denial of a substitution request
shall be final and binding, and may not be
reversed through an appeal under any
provision of the Contract Documents.
Contractor may challenge the scope of
reimbursement costs imposed under
Paragraph 7.05.D, by timely submittal of a
Change Proposal.
7.06 Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others
A. Contractor may retain Subcontractors and
Suppliers for the performance of parts of the
Work. Such Subcontractors and Suppliers
must be acceptable to Owner.
B. Contractor shall retain specific
Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals
or entities for the performance of designated
parts of the Work if required by the Contract
to do so.
C. Subsequent to the submittal of Contractor’s
Bid or final negotiation of the terms of the
Contract, Owner may not require Contractor
to retain any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity to furnish or perform any
of the Work against which Contractor has
reasonable objection.
D. Prior to entry into any binding subcontract or
purchase order, Contractor shall submit to
Owner the identity of the proposed
Subcontractor or Supplier (unless Owner has
already deemed such proposed Subcontractor
or Supplier acceptable, during the bidding
process or otherwise). Such proposed
Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.

and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 24 of 52
acceptable to Owner unless Owner raises a
substantive, reasonable objection within five
days.
E. Owner may require the replacement of any
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity retained by Contractor to perform any
part of the Work. Owner also may require
Contractor to retain specific replacements;
provided, however, that Owner may not
require a replacement to which Contractor has
a reasonable objection. If Contractor has
submitted the identity of certain
Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals
or entities for acceptance by Owner, and
Owner has accepted it (either in writing or by
failing to make written objection thereto), then
Owner may subsequently revoke the
acceptance of any such Subcontractor,
Supplier, or other individual or entity so
identified solely on the basis of substantive,
reasonable objection after due investigation.
Contractor shall submit an acceptable
replacement for the rejected Subcontractor,
Supplier, or other individual or entity.
F. If Owner requires the replacement of any
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity retained by Contractor to perform any
part of the Work, then Contractor shall be
entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or
Contract Times, or both, with respect to the
replacement; and Contractor shall initiate a
Change Proposal for such adjustment within
30 days of Owner’s requirement of
replacement.
G. No acceptance by Owner of any such
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity, whether initially or as a replacement,
shall constitute a waiver of the right of Owner
to the completion of the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents.
H. On a monthly basis Contractor shall submit to
Engineer a complete list of all Subcontractors
and Suppliers having a direct contract with
Contractor, and of all other Subcontractors
and Suppliers known to Contractor at the time
of submittal.
I. Contractor shall be fully responsible to Owner
and Engineer for all acts and omissions of the
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other
individuals or entities performing or
furnishing any of the Work just as Contractor
is responsible for Contractor’s own acts and
omissions.
J. Contractor shall be solely responsible for
scheduling and coordinating the work of
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and all other
individuals or entities performing or
furnishing any of the Work.
K. Contractor shall restrict all Subcontractors,
Suppliers, and such other individuals or
entities performing or furnishing any of the
Work from communicating with Engineer or
Owner, except through Contractor or in case
of an emergency, or as otherwise expressly
allowed herein.
L. The divisions and sections of the
Specifications and the identifications of any
Drawings shall not control Contractor in
dividing the Work among Subcontractors or
Suppliers or delineating the Work to be
performed by any specific trade.
M. All Work performed for Contractor by a
Subcontractor or Supplier shall be pursuant to
an appropriate contractual agreement that
specifically binds the Subcontractor or
Supplier to the applicable terms and
conditions of the Contract Documents for the
benefit of Owner and Engineer.
N. Owner may furnish to any Subcontractor or
Supplier, to the extent practicable,
information about amounts paid to Contractor
on account of Work performed for Contractor
by the particular Subcontractor or Supplier.
O. Nothing in the Contract Documents:
shall create for the benefit of any such
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity any contractual
relationship between Owner or Engineer
and any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or
other individual or entity; nor
shall create any obligation on the part of
Owner or Engineer to pay or to see to the
payment of any money due any such
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity except as may
otherwise be required by Laws and
Regulations.
7.07 Patent Fees and Royalties
A. Contractor shall pay all license fees and
royalties and assume all costs incident to the
use in the performance of the Work or the
incorporation in the Work of any invention,
design, process, product, or device which is
the subject of patent rights or copyrights held

arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to such Work or other
action. It shall not be Contractor’s
responsibility to make certain that the Work
described in the Contract Documents is in
accordance with Laws and Regulations, but
this shall not relieve Contractor of
Contractor’s obligations under Paragraph
3.03.
C. Owner or Contractor may give notice to the
other party of any changes after the
submission of Contractor’s Bid (or after the
date when Contractor became bound under a
negotiated contract) in Laws or Regulations
having an effect on the cost or time of
performance of the Work, including but not
limited to changes in Laws or Regulations
having an effect on procuring permits and on
sales, use, value-added, consumption, and

caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in
part, by Contractor, any Subcontractor,
Supplier, or any other individual or entity
directly or indirectly employed by any of them
to perform any of the Work, or anyone for
whose acts any of them may be liable, shall be
remedied by Contractor at its expense (except
damage or loss attributable to the fault of
Drawings or Specifications or to the acts or
omissions of Owner or Engineer or anyone
employed by any of them, or anyone for
whose acts any of them may be liable, and not

in part, to the fault or negligence of Contractor
or any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity directly or indirectly
employed by any of them).
F. Contractor’s duties and responsibilities for
safety and protection shall continue until such
time as all the Work is completed and

OTHER WORK AT THE SITE
8.01 Other Work
A. In addition to and apart from the Work under
the Contract Documents, the Owner may
perform other work at or adjacent to the Site.
Such other work may be performed by
Owner’s employees, or through contracts
between the Owner and third parties. Owner
may also arrange to have third-party utility
owners perform work on their utilities and
facilities at or adjacent to the Site.
B. If Owner performs other work at or adjacent
to the Site with Owner’s employees, or
through contracts for such other work, then
Owner shall give Contractor written notice
thereof prior to starting any such other work.
If Owner has advance information regarding
the start of any utility work at or adjacent to
the Site, Owner shall provide such
information to Contractor.
C. Contractor shall afford each other contractor
that performs such other work, each utility
owner performing other work, and Owner, if
Owner is performing other work with Owner’s
employees, proper and safe access to the Site,
and provide a reasonable opportunity for the
introduction and storage of materials and
equipment and the execution of such other
work. Contractor shall do all cutting, fitting,
and patching of the Work that may be required
to properly connect or otherwise make its
several parts come together and properly
integrate with such other work. Contractor
shall not endanger any work of others by
cutting, excavating, or otherwise altering such
work; provided, however, that Contractor may
cut or alter others' work with the written
consent of Engineer and the others whose
work will be affected.
D. If the proper execution or results of any part of
Contractor’s Work depends upon work
performed by others under this Article 8,

work that render it unavailable or unsuitable
for the proper execution and results of
Contractor’s Work. Contractor’s failure to so
report will constitute an acceptance of such
other work as fit and proper for integration
with Contractor’s Work except for latent
defects and deficiencies in such other work.
8.02 Coordination
A. If Owner intends to contract with others for
the performance of other work at or adjacent
to the Site, to perform other work at or
adjacent to the Site with Owner’s employees,
or to arrange to have utility owners perform
work at or adjacent to the Site, the following
will be set forth in the Supplementary
Conditions or provided to Contractor prior to
the start of any such other work:
the identity of the individual or entity
that will have authority and
responsibility for coordination of the
activities among the various contractors;
an itemization of the specific matters to
be covered by such authority and
responsibility; and
the extent of such authority and
responsibilities.
B. Unless otherwise provided in the
Supplementary Conditions, Owner shall have
sole authority and responsibility for such
coordination.
8.03 Legal Relationships
A. If, in the course of performing other work at
or adjacent to the Site for Owner, the Owner’s
employees, any other contractor working for
Owner, or any utility owner causes damage to
the Work or to the property of Contractor or
its Subcontractors, or delays, disrupts,
interferes with, or increases the scope or cost
of the performance of the Work, through
actions or inaction, then Contractor shall be
entitled to an equitable adjustment in the
Contract Price or the Contract Times, or both.
Contractor must submit any Change Proposal
seeking an equitable adjustment in the
Contract Price or the Contract Times under
this paragraph within 30 days of the
damaging, delaying, disrupting, or interfering
event. The entitlement to, and extent of, any
such equitable adjustment shall take into
account information (if any) regarding such
other work that was provided to Contractor in
the Contract Documents prior to the submittal
of the Bid or the final negotiation of the terms
of the Contract. When applicable, any such
equitable adjustment in Contract Price shall be
conditioned on Contractor assigning to Owner
all Contractor’s rights against such other
contractor or utility owner with respect to the
damage, delay, disruption, or interference that
is the subject of the adjustment. Contractor’s
entitlement to an adjustment of the Contract
Times is conditioned on such adjustment
being essential to Contractor’s ability to
complete the Work within the Contract Times.
B. Contractor shall take reasonable and
customary measures to avoid damaging,
delaying, disrupting, or interfering with the
work of Owner, any other contractor, or any
utility owner performing other work at or
adjacent to the Site. If Contractor fails to take
such measures and as a result damages,
delays, disrupts, or interferes with the work of
any such other contractor or utility owner,
then Owner may impose a set-off against
payments due to Contractor, and assign to
such other contractor or utility owner the
Owner’s contractual rights against Contractor
with respect to the breach of the obligations
set forth in this paragraph.
C. When Owner is performing other work at or
adjacent to the Site with Owner’s employees,
Contractor shall be liable to Owner for
damage to such other work, and for the
reasonable direct delay, disruption, and
interference costs incurred by Owner as a
result of Contractor’s failure to take
reasonable and customary measures with
respect to Owner’s other work. In response to
such damage, delay, disruption, or
interference, Owner may impose a set-off
against payments due to Contractor.
D. If Contractor damages, delays, disrupts, or
interferes with the work of any other
contractor, or any utility owner performing
other work at or adjacent to the Site, through
Contractor’s failure to take reasonable and
customary measures to avoid such impacts, or
if any claim arising out of Contractor’s
actions, inactions, or negligence in
performance of the Work at or adjacent to the
Site is made by any such other contractor or
utility owner against Contractor, Owner, or
Engineer, then Contractor shall (1) promptly
attempt to settle the claim as to all parties
through negotiations with such other
contractor or utility owner, or otherwise
resolve the claim by arbitration or other
dispute resolution proceeding or at law, and
(2) indemnify and hold harmless Owner and
Engineer, and the officers, directors,

Directive’s effect, if any, on the Contract
Price and Contract Times; or, if
negotiations are unsuccessful, by a
determination under the terms of the
Contract Documents governing
adjustments, expressly including
Paragraph 11.04 regarding change of
Contract Price. Contractor must submit
any Change Proposal seeking an
adjustment of the Contract Price or the
Contract Times, or both, no later than 30
days after the completion of the Work set
out in the Work Change Directive.
Owner must submit any Claim seeking
an adjustment of the Contract Price or
the Contract Times, or both, no later than
60 days after issuance of the Work
Change Directive.
Field Orders: Engineer may authorize
minor changes in the Work if the
changes do not involve an adjustment in
the Contract Price or the Contract Times
and are compatible with the design
concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated by the
Contract Documents. Such changes will
be accomplished by a Field Order and
will be binding on Owner and also on
Contractor, which shall perform the
Work involved promptly. If Contractor

and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 35 of 52
believes that a Field Order justifies an
adjustment in the Contract Price or
Contract Times, or both, then before
proceeding with the Work at issue,
Contractor shall submit a Change
Proposal as provided herein.
11.02 Owner-Authorized Changes in the Work
A. Without invalidating the Contract and without
notice to any surety, Owner may, at any time
or from time to time, order additions,
deletions, or revisions in the Work. Such
changes shall be supported by Engineer’s
recommendation, to the extent the change
involves the design (as set forth in the
Drawings, Specifications, or otherwise), or
other engineering or technical matters. Such
changes may be accomplished by a Change
Order, if Owner and Contractor have agreed
as to the effect, if any, of the changes on
Contract Times or Contract Price; or by a
Work Change Directive. Upon receipt of any
such document, Contractor shall promptly
proceed with the Work involved; or, in the
case of a deletion in the Work, promptly cease
construction activities with respect to such
deleted Work. Added or revised Work shall be
performed under the applicable conditions of
the Contract Documents. Nothing in this
paragraph shall obligate Contractor to
undertake work that Contractor reasonably
concludes cannot be performed in a manner
consistent with Contractor’s safety obligations
under the Contract Documents or Laws and
Regulations.
11.03 Unauthorized Changes in the Work
A. Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase
in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Times with respect to any work
performed that is not required by the Contract
Documents, as amended, modified, or
supplemented, except in the case of an
emergency as provided in Paragraph 7.15 or in
the case of uncovering Work as provided in
Paragraph 14.05.
11.04 Change of Contract Price
A. The Contract Price may only be changed by a
Change Order. Any Change Proposal for an
adjustment in the Contract Price shall comply
with the provisions of Paragraph 11.06. Any
Claim for an adjustment of Contract Price
shall comply with the provisions of Article 12.
B. An adjustment in the Contract Price will be
determined as follows:
where the Work involved is covered by
unit prices contained in the Contract
Documents, then by application of such
unit prices to the quantities of the items
involved (subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 13.03); or
where the Work involved is not covered
by unit prices contained in the Contract
Documents, then by a mutually agreed
lump sum (which may include an
allowance for overhead and profit not
necessarily in accordance with
Paragraph 11.04.C.2); or
where the Work involved is not covered
by unit prices contained in the Contract
Documents and the parties do not reach
mutual agreement to a lump sum, then on
the basis of the Cost of the Work
(determined as provided in Paragraph
13.01) plus a Contractor’s fee for
overhead and profit (determined as
provided in Paragraph 11.04.C).
C. Contractor’s Fee: When applicable, the
Contractor’s fee for overhead and profit shall
be determined as follows:
a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or
if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a
fee based on the following percentages
of the various portions of the Cost of the
Work:
a. for costs incurred under Paragraphs
13.01.B.1 and 13.01.B.2, the
Contractor’s fee shall be 15
percent;
b. for costs incurred under Paragraph
13.01.B.3, the Contractor’s fee
shall be five percent;
c. where one or more tiers of
subcontracts are on the basis of
Cost of the Work plus a fee and no
fixed fee is agreed upon, the intent
of Paragraphs 11.01.C.2.a and
11.01.C.2.b is that the Contractor’s
fee shall be based on: (1) a fee of
15 percent of the costs incurred
under Paragraphs 13.01.A.1 and
13.01.A.2 by the Subcontractor
that actually performs the Work, at
whatever tier, and (2) with respect
to Contractor itself and to any
Subcontractors of a tier higher than
that of the Subcontractor that
actually performs the Work, a fee
of five percent of the amount (fee
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 36 of 52
plus underlying costs incurred)
attributable to the next lower tier
Subcontractor; provided, however,
that for any such subcontracted
work the maximum total fee to be
paid by Owner shall be no greater
than 27 percent of the costs
incurred by the Subcontractor that
actually performs the work;
d. no fee shall be payable on the basis
of costs itemized under Paragraphs
13.01.B.4, 13.01.B.5, and 13.01.C;
e. the amount of credit to be allowed
by Contractor to Owner for any
change which results in a net
decrease in cost will be the amount
of the actual net decrease in cost
plus a deduction in Contractor’s fee
by an amount equal to five percent
of such net decrease; and
f. when both additions and credits are
involved in any one change, the
adjustment in Contractor’s fee shall
be computed on the basis of the net
change in accordance with
Paragraphs 11.04.C.2.a through
11.04.C.2.e, inclusive.
11.05 Change of Contract Times
A. The Contract Times may only be changed by
a Change Order. Any Change Proposal for an
adjustment in the Contract Times shall comply
with the provisions of Paragraph 11.06. Any
Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Times
shall comply with the provisions of Article 12.
B. An adjustment of the Contract Times shall be
subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph
4.05, concerning delays in Contractor’s
progress.
11.06 Change Proposals
A. Contractor shall submit a Change Proposal to
Engineer to request an adjustment in the
Contract Times or Contract Price; appeal an
initial decision by Engineer concerning the
requirements of the Contract Documents or
relating to the acceptability of the Work under
the Contract Documents; contest a set-off
against payment due; or seek other relief
under the Contract. The Change Proposal shall
specify any proposed change in Contract
Times or Contract Price, or both, or other
proposed relief, and explain the reason for the
proposed change, with citations to any
governing or applicable provisions of the
Contract Documents.
Procedures: Contractor shall submit
each Change Proposal to Engineer
promptly (but in no event later than 30
days) after the start of the event giving
rise thereto, or after such initial decision.
The Contractor shall submit supporting
data, including the proposed change in
Contract Price or Contract Time (if any),
to the Engineer and Owner within 15
days after the submittal of the Change
Proposal. The supporting data shall be
accompanied by a written statement that
the supporting data are accurate and
complete, and that any requested time or
price adjustment is the entire adjustment
to which Contractor believes it is entitled
as a result of said event. Engineer will
advise Owner regarding the Change
Proposal, and consider any comments or
response from Owner regarding the
Change Proposal.
Engineer’s Action: Engineer will review
each Change Proposal and, within 30
days after receipt of the Contractor’s
supporting data, either deny the Change
Proposal in whole, approve it in whole,
or deny it in part and approve it in part.
Such actions shall be in writing, with a
copy provided to Owner and Contractor.
If Engineer does not take action on the
Change Proposal within 30 days, then
either Owner or Contractor may at any
time thereafter submit a letter to the other
party indicating that as a result of
Engineer’s inaction the Change Proposal
is deemed denied, thereby commencing
the time for appeal of the denial under
Article 12.
Binding Decision: Engineer’s decision
will be final and binding upon Owner
and Contractor, unless Owner or
Contractor appeals the decision by filing
a Claim under Article 12.
B. Resolution of Certain Change Proposals: If
the Change Proposal does not involve the
design (as set forth in the Drawings,
Specifications, or otherwise), the acceptability
of the Work, or other engineering or technical
matters, then Engineer will notify the parties
that the Engineer is unable to resolve the
Change Proposal. For purposes of further
resolution of such a Change Proposal, such
notice shall be deemed a denial, and
Contractor may choose to seek resolution
under the terms of Article 12.

11.07 Execution of Change Orders
A. Owner and Contractor shall execute
appropriate Change Orders covering:
changes in the Contract Price or Contract
Times which are agreed to by the parties,
including any undisputed sum or amount
of time for Work actually performed in
accordance with a Work Change
Directive;
changes in Contract Price resulting from
an Owner set-off, unless Contractor has
duly contested such set-off;
changes in the Work which are: (a)
ordered by Owner pursuant to Paragraph
11.02, (b) required because of Owner’s
acceptance of defective Work under
Paragraph 14.04 or Owner’s correction
of defective Work under Paragraph
14.07, or (c) agreed to by the parties,
subject to the need for Engineer’s
recommendation if the change in the
Work involves the design (as set forth in
the Drawings, Specifications, or
otherwise), or other engineering or
technical matters; and
changes in the Contract Price or Contract
Times, or other changes, which embody
the substance of any final and binding
results under Paragraph 11.06, or Article
12.
B. If Owner or Contractor refuses to execute a
Change Order that is required to be executed
under the terms of this Paragraph 11.07, it
shall be deemed to be of full force and effect,
as if fully executed.
11.08 Notification to Surety
A. If the provisions of any bond require notice to
be given to a surety of any change affecting
the general scope of the Work or the
provisions of the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, Contract Price
or Contract Times), the giving of any such
notice will be Contractor’s responsibility. The
amount of each applicable bond will be
adjusted to reflect the effect of any such
change.
CLAIMS
12.01 Claims
A. Claims Process: The following disputes
between Owner and Contractor shall be
submitted to the Claims process set forth in
this Article:
Appeals by Owner or Contractor of
Engineer’s decisions regarding Change
Proposals;
Owner demands for adjustments in the
Contract Price or Contract Times, or
other relief under the Contract
Documents; and
Disputes that Engineer has been unable
to address because they do not involve
the design (as set forth in the Drawings,
Specifications, or otherwise), the
acceptability of the Work, or other
engineering or technical matters.
B. Submittal of Claim: The party submitting a
Claim shall deliver it directly to the other party
to the Contract promptly (but in no event later
than 30 days) after the start of the event giving
rise thereto; in the case of appeals regarding
Change Proposals within 30 days of the
decision under appeal. The party submitting
the Claim shall also furnish a copy to the
Engineer, for its information only. The
responsibility to substantiate a Claim shall rest
with the party making the Claim. In the case
of a Claim by Contractor seeking an increase
in the Contract Times or Contract Price, or
both, Contractor shall certify that the Claim is
made in good faith, that the supporting data
are accurate and complete, and that to the best
of Contractor’s knowledge and belief the
amount of time or money requested accurately
reflects the full amount to which Contractor is
entitled.
C. Review and Resolution: The party receiving a
Claim shall review it thoroughly, giving full
consideration to its merits. The two parties
shall seek to resolve the Claim through the
exchange of information and direct
negotiations. The parties may extend the time
for resolving the Claim by mutual agreement.
All actions taken on a Claim shall be stated in
writing and submitted to the other party, with
a copy to Engineer.
D. Mediation:
At any time after initiation of a Claim,
Owner and Contractor may mutually
agree to mediation of the underlying
dispute. The agreement to mediate shall
stay the Claim submittal and response
process.
If Owner and Contractor agree to
mediation, then after 60 days from such
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 38 of 52
agreement, either Owner or Contractor
may unilaterally terminate the mediation
process, and the Claim submittal and
decision process shall resume as of the
date of the termination. If the mediation
proceeds but is unsuccessful in resolving
the dispute, the Claim submittal and
decision process shall resume as of the
date of the conclusion of the mediation,
as determined by the mediator.
Owner and Contractor shall each pay
one-half of the mediator’s fees and costs.
E. Partial Approval: If the party receiving a
Claim approves the Claim in part and denies it
in part, such action shall be final and binding
unless within 30 days of such action the other
party invokes the procedure set forth in Article
17 for final resolution of disputes.
F. Denial of Claim: If efforts to resolve a Claim
are not successful, the party receiving the
Claim may deny it by giving written notice of
denial to the other party. If the receiving party
does not take action on the Claim within 90
days, then either Owner or Contractor may at
any time thereafter submit a letter to the other
party indicating that as a result of the inaction,
the Claim is deemed denied, thereby
commencing the time for appeal of the denial.
A denial of the Claim shall be final and
binding unless within 30 days of the denial the
other party invokes the procedure set forth in
Article 17 for the final resolution of disputes.
G. Final and Binding Results: If the parties reach
a mutual agreement regarding a Claim,
whether through approval of the Claim, direct
negotiations, mediation, or otherwise; or if a
Claim is approved in part and denied in part,
or denied in full, and such actions become
final and binding; then the results of the
agreement or action on the Claim shall be
incorporated in a Change Order to the extent
they affect the Contract, including the Work,
the Contract Times, or the Contract Price.
COST OF THE WORK;
ALLOWANCES; UNIT PRICE WORK
13.01 Cost of the Work
A. Purposes for Determination of Cost of the
Work: The term Cost of the Work means the
sum of all costs necessary for the proper
performance of the Work at issue, as further
defined below. The provisions of this
Paragraph 13.01 are used for two distinct
purposes:
To determine Cost of the Work when
Cost of the Work is a component of the
Contract Price, under cost-plus-fee,
time-and-materials, or other cost-based
terms; or
To determine the value of a Change
Order, Change Proposal, Claim, set-off,
or other adjustment in Contract Price.
When the value of any such adjustment
is determined on the basis of Cost of the
Work, Contractor is entitled only to
those additional or incremental costs
required because of the change in the
Work or because of the event giving rise
to the adjustment.
B. Costs Included: Except as otherwise may be
agreed to in writing by Owner, costs included
in the Cost of the Work shall be in amounts no
higher than those prevailing in the locality of
the Project, shall not include any of the costs
itemized in Paragraph 13.01.C, and shall
include only the following items:
Payroll costs for employees in the direct
employ of Contractor in the performance
of the Work under schedules of job
classifications agreed upon by Owner
and Contractor. Such employees shall
include, without limitation,
superintendents, foremen, and other
personnel employed full time on the
Work. Payroll costs for employees not
employed full time on the Work shall be
apportioned on the basis of their time
spent on the Work. Payroll costs shall
include, but not be limited to, salaries
and wages plus the cost of fringe
benefits, which shall include social
security contributions, unemployment,
excise, and payroll taxes, workers’
compensation, health and retirement
benefits, bonuses, sick leave, and
vacation and holiday pay applicable
thereto. The expenses of performing
Work outside of regular working hours,
on Saturday, Sunday, or legal holidays,
shall be included in the above to the
extent authorized by Owner.
Cost of all materials and equipment
furnished and incorporated in the Work,
including costs of transportation and
storage thereof, and Suppliers’ field
services required in connection
therewith. All cash discounts shall
accrue to Contractor unless Owner
deposits funds with Contractor with
which to make payments, in which case
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 39 of 52
the cash discounts shall accrue to Owner.
All trade discounts, rebates, and refunds
and returns from sale of surplus
materials and equipment shall accrue to
Owner, and Contractor shall make
provisions so that they may be obtained.
Payments made by Contractor to
Subcontractors for Work performed by
Subcontractors. If required by Owner,
Contractor shall obtain competitive bids
from subcontractors acceptable to
Owner and Contractor and shall deliver
such bids to Owner, who will then
determine, with the advice of Engineer,
which bids, if any, will be acceptable. If
any subcontract provides that the
Subcontractor is to be paid on the basis
of Cost of the Work plus a fee, the
Subcontractor’s Cost of the Work and
fee shall be determined in the same
manner as Contractor’s Cost of the Work
and fee as provided in this Paragraph
13.01.
Costs of special consultants (including
but not limited to engineers, architects,
testing laboratories, surveyors,
attorneys, and accountants) employed
for services specifically related to the
Work.
Supplemental costs including the
following:
a. The proportion of necessary
transportation, travel, and
subsistence expenses of
Contractor’s employees incurred in
discharge of duties connected with
the Work.
b. Cost, including transportation and
maintenance, of all materials,
supplies, equipment, machinery,
appliances, office, and temporary
facilities at the Site, and hand tools
not owned by the workers, which
are consumed in the performance
of the Work, and cost, less market
value, of such items used but not
consumed which remain the
property of Contractor.
c. Rentals of all construction
equipment and machinery, and the
parts thereof, whether rented from
Contractor or others in accordance
with rental agreements approved
by Owner with the advice of
Engineer, and the costs of
transportation, loading, unloading,
assembly, dismantling, and
removal thereof. All such costs
shall be in accordance with the
terms of said rental agreements.
The rental of any such equipment,
machinery, or parts shall cease
when the use thereof is no longer
necessary for the Work.
d. Sales, consumer, use, and other
similar taxes related to the Work,
and for which Contractor is liable,
as imposed by Laws and
Regulations.
e. Deposits lost for causes other than
negligence of Contractor, any
Subcontractor, or anyone directly
or indirectly employed by any of
them or for whose acts any of them
may be liable, and royalty
payments and fees for permits and
licenses.
f. Losses and damages (and related
expenses) caused by damage to the
Work, not compensated by
insurance or otherwise, sustained
by Contractor in connection with
the performance of the Work
(except losses and damages within
the deductible amounts of property
insurance established in
accordance with Paragraph 6.05),
provided such losses and damages
have resulted from causes other
than the negligence of Contractor,
any Subcontractor, or anyone
directly or indirectly employed by
any of them or for whose acts any
of them may be liable. Such losses
shall include settlements made with
the written consent and approval of
Owner. No such losses, damages,
and expenses shall be included in
the Cost of the Work for the
purpose of determining
Contractor’s fee.
g. The cost of utilities, fuel, and
sanitary facilities at the Site.
h. Minor expenses such as
communication service at the Site,
express and courier services, and
similar petty cash items in
connection with the Work.
i. The costs of premiums for all
bonds and insurance that
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 40 of 52
Contractor is required by the
Contract Documents to purchase
and maintain.
C. Costs Excluded: The term Cost of the Work
shall not include any of the following items:
Payroll costs and other compensation of
Contractor’s officers, executives,
principals (of partnerships and sole
proprietorships), general managers,
safety managers, engineers, architects,
estimators, attorneys, auditors,
accountants, purchasing and contracting
agents, expediters, timekeepers, clerks,
and other personnel employed by
Contractor, whether at the Site or in
Contractor’s principal or branch office
for general administration of the Work
and not specifically included in the
agreed upon schedule of job
classifications referred to in Paragraph
13.01.B.1 or specifically covered by
Paragraph 13.01.B.4. The payroll costs
and other compensation excluded here
are to be considered administrative costs
covered by the Contractor’s fee.
Expenses of Contractor’s principal and
branch offices other than Contractor’s
office at the Site.
Any part of Contractor’s capital
expenses, including interest on
Contractor’s capital employed for the
Work and charges against Contractor for
delinquent payments.
Costs due to the negligence of
Contractor, any Subcontractor, or
anyone directly or indirectly employed
by any of them or for whose acts any of
them may be liable, including but not
limited to, the correction of defective
Work, disposal of materials or
equipment wrongly supplied, and
making good any damage to property.
Other overhead or general expense costs
of any kind and the costs of any item not
specifically and expressly included in
Paragraph 13.01.B.
D. Contractor’s Fee: When the Work as a whole
is performed on the basis of cost-plus,
Contractor’s fee shall be determined as set
forth in the Agreement. When the value of any
Work covered by a Change Order, Change
Proposal, Claim, set-off, or other adjustment
in Contract Price is determined on the basis of
Cost of the Work, Contractor’s fee shall be
determined as set forth in Paragraph 11.04.C.
E. Documentation: Whenever the Cost of the
Work for any purpose is to be determined
pursuant to this Article 13, Contractor will
establish and maintain records thereof in
accordance with generally accepted
accounting practices and submit in a form
acceptable to Engineer an itemized cost
breakdown together with supporting data.
13.02 Allowances
A. It is understood that Contractor has included
in the Contract Price all allowances so named
in the Contract Documents and shall cause the
Work so covered to be performed for such
sums and by such persons or entities as may
be acceptable to Owner and Engineer.
B. Cash Allowances: Contractor agrees that:
the cash allowances include the cost to
Contractor (less any applicable trade
discounts) of materials and equipment
required by the allowances to be
delivered at the Site, and all applicable
taxes; and
Contractor’s costs for unloading and
handling on the Site, labor, installation,
overhead, profit, and other expenses
contemplated for the cash allowances
have been included in the Contract Price
and not in the allowances, and no
demand for additional payment on
account of any of the foregoing will be
valid.
C. Contingency Allowance: Contractor agrees
that a contingency allowance, if any, is for the
sole use of Owner to cover unanticipated
costs.
D. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change
Order will be issued as recommended by
Engineer to reflect actual amounts due
Contractor on account of Work covered by
allowances, and the Contract Price shall be
correspondingly adjusted.
13.03 Unit Price Work
A. Where the Contract Documents provide that
all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price
Work, initially the Contract Price will be
deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an
amount equal to the sum of the unit price for
each separately identified item of Unit Price
Work times the estimated quantity of each
item as indicated in the Agreement.
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 41 of 52
B. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price
Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the
purpose of comparison of Bids and
determining an initial Contract Price.
Payments to Contractor for Unit Price Work
will be based on actual quantities.
C. Each unit price will be deemed to include an
amount considered by Contractor to be
adequate to cover Contractor’s overhead and
profit for each separately identified item.
D. Engineer will determine the actual quantities
and classifications of Unit Price Work
performed by Contractor. Engineer will
review with Contractor the Engineer’s
preliminary determinations on such matters
before rendering a written decision thereon
(by recommendation of an Application for
Payment or otherwise). Engineer’s written
decision thereon will be final and binding
(except as modified by Engineer to reflect
changed factual conditions or more accurate
data) upon Owner and Contractor, subject to
the provisions of the following paragraph.
E. Within 30 days of Engineer’s written decision
under the preceding paragraph, Contractor
may submit a Change Proposal, or Owner may
file a Claim, seeking an adjustment in the
Contract Price if:
the quantity of any item of Unit Price
Work performed by Contractor differs
materially and significantly from the
estimated quantity of such item indicated
in the Agreement;
there is no corresponding adjustment
with respect to any other item of Work;
and
Contractor believes that it is entitled to
an increase in Contract Price as a result
of having incurred additional expense or
Owner believes that Owner is entitled to
a decrease in Contract Price, and the
parties are unable to agree as to the
amount of any such increase or decrease.
TESTS AND INSPECTIONS;
CORRECTION, REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF
DEFECTIVE WORK
14.01 Access to Work
A. Owner, Engineer, their consultants and other
representatives and personnel of Owner,
independent testing laboratories, and
authorities having jurisdiction will have
access to the Site and the Work at reasonable
times for their observation, inspection, and
testing. Contractor shall provide them proper
and safe conditions for such access and advise
them of Contractor’s safety procedures and
programs so that they may comply therewith
as applicable.
14.02 Tests, Inspections, and Approvals
A. Contractor shall give Engineer timely notice
of readiness of the Work (or specific parts
thereof) for all required inspections and tests,
and shall cooperate with inspection and testing
personnel to facilitate required inspections
and tests.
B. Owner shall retain and pay for the services of
an independent inspector, testing laboratory,
or other qualified individual or entity to
perform all inspections and tests expressly
required by the Contract Documents to be
furnished and paid for by Owner, except that
costs incurred in connection with tests or
inspections of covered Work shall be
governed by the provisions of Paragraph
14.05.
C. If Laws or Regulations of any public body
having jurisdiction require any Work (or part
thereof) specifically to be inspected, tested, or
approved by an employee or other
representative of such public body, Contractor
shall assume full responsibility for arranging
and obtaining such inspections, tests, or
approvals, pay all costs in connection
therewith, and furnish Engineer the required
certificates of inspection or approval.
D. Contractor shall be responsible for arranging,
obtaining, and paying for all inspections and
tests required:
by the Contract Documents, unless the
Contract Documents expressly allocate
responsibility for a specific inspection or
test to Owner;
to attain Owner’s and Engineer’s
acceptance of materials or equipment to
be incorporated in the Work;
by manufacturers of equipment
furnished under the Contract
Documents;
for testing, adjusting, and balancing of
mechanical, electrical, and other
equipment to be incorporated into the
Work; and
for acceptance of materials, mix designs,
or equipment submitted for approval
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 42 of 52
prior to Contractor’s purchase thereof
for incorporation in the Work.
Such inspections and tests shall be performed
by independent inspectors, testing
laboratories, or other qualified individuals or
entities acceptable to Owner and Engineer.
E. If the Contract Documents require the Work
(or part thereof) to be approved by Owner,
Engineer, or another designated individual or
entity, then Contractor shall assume full
responsibility for arranging and obtaining
such approvals.
F. If any Work (or the work of others) that is to
be inspected, tested, or approved is covered by
Contractor without written concurrence of
Engineer, Contractor shall, if requested by
Engineer, uncover such Work for observation.
Such uncovering shall be at Contractor’s
expense unless Contractor had given Engineer
timely notice of Contractor’s intention to
cover the same and Engineer had not acted
with reasonable promptness in response to
such notice.
14.03 Defective Work
A. Contractor’s Obligation: It is Contractor’s
obligation to assure that the Work is not
defective.
B. Engineer’s Authority: Engineer has the
authority to determine whether Work is
defective, and to reject defective Work.
C. Notice of Defects: Prompt notice of all
defective Work of which Owner or Engineer
has actual knowledge will be given to
Contractor.
D. Correction, or Removal and Replacement:
Promptly after receipt of written notice of
defective Work, Contractor shall correct all
such defective Work, whether or not
fabricated, installed, or completed, or, if
Engineer has rejected the defective Work,
remove it from the Project and replace it with
Work that is not defective.
E. Preservation of Warranties: When correcting
defective Work, Contractor shall take no
action that would void or otherwise impair
Owner’s special warranty and guarantee, if
any, on said Work.
F. Costs and Damages: In addition to its
correction, removal, and replacement
obligations with respect to defective Work,
Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses,
and damages arising out of or relating to
defective Work, including but not limited to
the cost of the inspection, testing, correction,
removal, replacement, or reconstruction of
such defective Work, fines levied against
Owner by governmental authorities because
the Work is defective, and the costs of repair
or replacement of work of others resulting
from defective Work. Prior to final payment,
if Owner and Contractor are unable to agree as
to the measure of such claims, costs, losses,
and damages resulting from defective Work,
then Owner may impose a reasonable set-off
against payments due under Article 15.
14.04 Acceptance of Defective Work
A. If, instead of requiring correction or removal
and replacement of defective Work, Owner
prefers to accept it, Owner may do so (subject,
if such acceptance occurs prior to final
payment, to Engineer’s confirmation that such
acceptance is in general accord with the design
intent and applicable engineering principles,
and will not endanger public safety).
Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses,
and damages attributable to Owner’s
evaluation of and determination to accept such
defective Work (such costs to be approved by
Engineer as to reasonableness), and for the
diminished value of the Work to the extent not
otherwise paid by Contractor. If any such
acceptance occurs prior to final payment, the
necessary revisions in the Contract
Documents with respect to the Work shall be
incorporated in a Change Order. If the parties
are unable to agree as to the decrease in the
Contract Price, reflecting the diminished value
of Work so accepted, then Owner may impose
a reasonable set-off against payments due
under Article 15. If the acceptance of
defective Work occurs after final payment,
Contractor shall pay an appropriate amount to
Owner.
14.05 Uncovering Work
A. Engineer has the authority to require special
inspection or testing of the Work, whether or
not the Work is fabricated, installed, or
completed.
B. If any Work is covered contrary to the written
request of Engineer, then Contractor shall, if
requested by Engineer, uncover such Work for
Engineer’s observation, and then replace the
covering, all at Contractor’s expense.
C. If Engineer considers it necessary or advisable
that covered Work be observed by Engineer or
inspected or tested by others, then Contractor,
at Engineer’s request, shall uncover, expose,
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.

and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 43 of 52
or otherwise make available for observation,
inspection, or testing as Engineer may require,
that portion of the Work in question, and
provide all necessary labor, material, and
equipment.
If it is found that the uncovered Work is
defective, Contractor shall be
responsible for all claims, costs, losses,
and damages arising out of or relating to
such uncovering, exposure, observation,
inspection, and testing, and of
satisfactory replacement or
reconstruction (including but not limited
to all costs of repair or replacement of
work of others); and pending
Contractor’s full discharge of this
responsibility the Owner shall be entitled
to impose a reasonable set-off against
payments due under Article 15.
If the uncovered Work is not found to be
defective, Contractor shall be allowed an
increase in the Contract Price or an
extension of the Contract Times, or both,
directly attributable to such uncovering,
exposure, observation, inspection,
testing, replacement, and reconstruction.
If the parties are unable to agree as to the
amount or extent thereof, then
Contractor may submit a Change
Proposal within 30 days of the
determination that the Work is not
defective.
14.06 Owner May Stop the Work
A. If the Work is defective, or Contractor fails to
supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable
materials or equipment, or fails to perform the
Work in such a way that the completed Work
will conform to the Contract Documents, then
Owner may order Contractor to stop the Work,
or any portion thereof, until the cause for such
order has been eliminated; however, this right
of Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise
to any duty on the part of Owner to exercise
this right for the benefit of Contractor, any
Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other
individual or entity, or any surety for, or
employee or agent of any of them.
14.07 Owner May Correct Defective Work
A. If Contractor fails within a reasonable time
after written notice from Engineer to correct
defective Work, or to remove and replace
rejected Work as required by Engineer, or if
Contractor fails to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents, or
if Contractor fails to comply with any other
provision of the Contract Documents, then
Owner may, after seven days written notice to
Contractor, correct or remedy any such
deficiency.
B. In exercising the rights and remedies under
this Paragraph 14.07, Owner shall proceed
expeditiously. In connection with such
corrective or remedial action, Owner may
exclude Contractor from all or part of the Site,
take possession of all or part of the Work and
suspend Contractor’s services related thereto,
and incorporate in the Work all materials and
equipment stored at the Site or for which
Owner has paid Contractor but which are
stored elsewhere. Contractor shall allow
Owner, Owner’s representatives, agents and
employees, Owner’s other contractors, and
Engineer and Engineer’s consultants access to
the Site to enable Owner to exercise the rights
and remedies under this paragraph.
C. All claims, costs, losses, and damages
incurred or sustained by Owner in exercising
the rights and remedies under this Paragraph
14.07 will be charged against Contractor as
set-offs against payments due under Article
15. Such claims, costs, losses and damages
will include but not be limited to all costs of
repair, or replacement of work of others
destroyed or damaged by correction, removal,
or replacement of Contractor’s defective
Work.
D. Contractor shall not be allowed an extension
of the Contract Times because of any delay in
the performance of the Work attributable to
the exercise by Owner of Owner’s rights and
remedies under this Paragraph 14.07.
PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR;
SET-OFFS; COMPLETION; CORRECTION PERIOD
15.01 Progress Payments
A. Basis for Progress Payments: The Schedule of
Values established as provided in Article 2
will serve as the basis for progress payments
and will be incorporated into a form of
Application for Payment acceptable to
Engineer. Progress payments on account of
Unit Price Work will be based on the number
of units completed during the pay period, as
determined under the provisions of Paragraph
13.03. Progress payments for cost-based
Work will be based on Cost of the Work
completed by Contractor during the pay
period.
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.

and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 44 of 52
B. Applications for Payments:
At least 20 days before the date
established in the Agreement for each
progress payment (but not more often
than once a month), Contractor shall
submit to Engineer for review an
Application for Payment filled out and
signed by Contractor covering the Work
completed as of the date of the
Application and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as is required
by the Contract Documents. If payment
is requested on the basis of materials and
equipment not incorporated in the Work
but delivered and suitably stored at the
Site or at another location agreed to in
writing, the Application for Payment
shall also be accompanied by a bill of
sale, invoice, or other documentation
warranting that Owner has received the
materials and equipment free and clear
of all Liens, and evidence that the
materials and equipment are covered by
appropriate property insurance, a
warehouse bond, or other arrangements
to protect Owner’s interest therein, all of
which must be satisfactory to Owner.
Beginning with the second Application
for Payment, each Application shall
include an affidavit of Contractor stating
that all previous progress payments
received on account of the Work have
been applied on account to discharge
Contractor’s legitimate obligations
associated with prior Applications for
Payment.
The amount of retainage with respect to
progress payments will be as stipulated
in the Agreement.
C. Review of Applications:
Engineer will, within 10 days after
receipt of each Application for Payment,
including each resubmittal, either
indicate in writing a recommendation of
payment and present the Application to
Owner, or return the Application to
Contractor indicating in writing
Engineer’s reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case,
Contractor may make the necessary
corrections and resubmit the
Application.
Engineer’s recommendation of any
payment requested in an Application for
Payment will constitute a representation
by Engineer to Owner, based on
Engineer’s observations of the executed
Work as an experienced and qualified
design professional, and on Engineer’s
review of the Application for Payment
and the accompanying data and
schedules, that to the best of Engineer’s
knowledge, information and belief:
a. the Work has progressed to the
point indicated;
b. the quality of the Work is generally
in accordance with the Contract
Documents (subject to an
evaluation of the Work as a
functioning whole prior to or upon
Substantial Completion, the results
of any subsequent tests called for in
the Contract Documents, a final
determination of quantities and
classifications for Unit Price Work
under Paragraph 13.03, and any
other qualifications stated in the
recommendation); and
c. the conditions precedent to
Contractor’s being entitled to such
payment appear to have been
fulfilled in so far as it is Engineer’s
responsibility to observe the Work.
By recommending any such payment
Engineer will not thereby be deemed to
have represented that:
a. inspections made to check the
quality or the quantity of the Work
as it has been performed have been
exhaustive, extended to every
aspect of the Work in progress, or
involved detailed inspections of the
Work beyond the responsibilities
specifically assigned to Engineer in
the Contract; or
b. there may not be other matters or
issues between the parties that
might entitle Contractor to be paid
additionally by Owner or entitle
Owner to withhold payment to
Contractor.
Neither Engineer’s review of
Contractor’s Work for the purposes of
recommending payments nor Engineer’s
recommendation of any payment,
including final payment, will impose
responsibility on Engineer:
a. to supervise, direct, or control the
Work, or
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 45 of 52
b. for the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, or
procedures of construction, or the
safety precautions and programs
incident thereto, or
c. for Contractor’s failure to comply
with Laws and Regulations
applicable to Contractor’s
performance of the Work, or
d. to make any examination to
ascertain how or for what purposes
Contractor has used the money
paid on account of the Contract
Price, or
e. to determine that title to any of the
Work, materials, or equipment has
passed to Owner free and clear of
any Liens.
Engineer may refuse to recommend the
whole or any part of any payment if, in
Engineer’s opinion, it would be incorrect
to make the representations to Owner
stated in Paragraph 15.01.C.2.
Engineer will recommend reductions in
payment (set-offs) necessary in
Engineer’s opinion to protect Owner
from loss because:
a. the Work is defective, requiring
correction or replacement;
b. the Contract Price has been
reduced by Change Orders;
c. Owner has been required to correct
defective Work in accordance with
Paragraph 14.07, or has accepted
defective Work pursuant to
Paragraph 14.04;
d. Owner has been required to remove
or remediate a Hazardous
Environmental Condition for
which Contractor is responsible; or
e. Engineer has actual knowledge of
the occurrence of any of the events
that would constitute a default by
Contractor and therefore justify
termination for cause under the
Contract Documents.
D. Payment Becomes Due:
Ten days after presentation of the
Application for Payment to Owner with
Engineer’s recommendation, the amount
recommended (subject to any Owner set-
offs) will become due, and when due will
be paid by Owner to Contractor.
E. Reductions in Payment by Owner:
In addition to any reductions in payment
(set-offs) recommended by Engineer,
Owner is entitled to impose a set-off
against payment based on any of the
following:
a. claims have been made against
Owner on account of Contractor’s
conduct in the performance or
furnishing of the Work, or Owner
has incurred costs, losses, or
damages on account of
Contractor’s conduct in the
performance or furnishing of the
Work, including but not limited to
claims, costs, losses, or damages
from workplace injuries, adjacent
property damage, non-compliance
with Laws and Regulations, and
patent infringement;
b. Contractor has failed to take
reasonable and customary
measures to avoid damage, delay,
disruption, and interference with
other work at or adjacent to the
Site;
c. Contractor has failed to provide
and maintain required bonds or
insurance;
d. Owner has been required to remove
or remediate a Hazardous
Environmental Condition for
which Contractor is responsible;
e. Owner has incurred extra charges
or engineering costs related to
submittal reviews, evaluations of
proposed substitutes, tests and
inspections, or return visits to
manufacturing or assembly
facilities;
f. the Work is defective, requiring
correction or replacement;
g. Owner has been required to correct
defective Work in accordance with
Paragraph 14.07, or has accepted
defective Work pursuant to
Paragraph 14.04;
h. the Contract Price has been
reduced by Change Orders;
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 46 of 52
i. an event that would constitute a
default by Contractor and therefore
justify a termination for cause has
occurred;
j. liquidated damages have accrued
as a result of Contractor’s failure to
achieve Milestones, Substantial
Completion, or final completion of
the Work;
k. Liens have been filed in connection
with the Work, except where
Contractor has delivered a specific
bond satisfactory to Owner to
secure the satisfaction and
discharge of such Liens;
l. there are other items entitling
Owner to a set off against the
amount recommended.
If Owner imposes any set-off against
payment, whether based on its own
knowledge or on the written
recommendations of Engineer, Owner
will give Contractor immediate written
notice (with a copy to Engineer) stating
the reasons for such action and the
specific amount of the reduction, and
promptly pay Contractor any amount
remaining after deduction of the amount
so withheld. Owner shall promptly pay
Contractor the amount so withheld, or
any adjustment thereto agreed to by
Owner and Contractor, if Contractor
remedies the reasons for such action.
The reduction imposed shall be binding
on Contractor unless it duly submits a
Change Proposal contesting the
reduction.
Upon a subsequent determination that
Owner’s refusal of payment was not
justified, the amount wrongfully
withheld shall be treated as an amount
due as determined by Paragraph
15.01.C.1 and subject to interest as
provided in the Agreement.
15.02 Contractor’s Warranty of Title
A. Contractor warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials, and equipment
furnished under the Contract will pass to
Owner free and clear of (1) all Liens and other
title defects, and (2) all patent, licensing,
copyright, or royalty obligations, no later than
seven days after the time of payment by
Owner.
15.03 Substantial Completion
A. When Contractor considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use Contractor shall
notify Owner and Engineer in writing that the
entire Work is substantially complete and
request that Engineer issue a certificate of
Substantial Completion. Contractor shall at
the same time submit to Owner and Engineer
an initial draft of punch list items to be
completed or corrected before final payment.
B. Promptly after Contractor’s notification,
Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make
an inspection of the Work to determine the
status of completion. If Engineer does not
consider the Work substantially complete,
Engineer will notify Contractor in writing
giving the reasons therefor.
C. If Engineer considers the Work substantially
complete, Engineer will deliver to Owner a
preliminary certificate of Substantial
Completion which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion. Engineer shall attach
to the certificate a punch list of items to be
completed or corrected before final payment.
Owner shall have seven days after receipt of
the preliminary certificate during which to
make written objection to Engineer as to any
provisions of the certificate or attached punch
list. If, after considering the objections to the
provisions of the preliminary certificate,
Engineer concludes that the Work is not
substantially complete, Engineer will, within
14 days after submission of the preliminary
certificate to Owner, notify Contractor in
writing that the Work is not substantially
complete, stating the reasons therefor. If
Owner does not object to the provisions of the
certificate, or if despite consideration of
Owner’s objections Engineer concludes that
the Work is substantially complete, then
Engineer will, within said 14 days, execute
and deliver to Owner and Contractor a final
certificate of Substantial Completion (with a
revised punch list of items to be completed or
corrected) reflecting such changes from the
preliminary certificate as Engineer believes
justified after consideration of any objections
from Owner.
D. At the time of receipt of the preliminary
certificate of Substantial Completion, Owner
and Contractor will confer regarding Owner’s
use or occupancy of the Work following
Substantial Completion, review the builder’s
risk insurance policy with respect to the end of
the builder’s risk coverage, and confirm the
transition to coverage of the Work under a
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 47 of 52
permanent property insurance policy held by
Owner. Unless Owner and Contractor agree
otherwise in writing, Owner shall bear
responsibility for security, operation,
protection of the Work, property insurance,
maintenance, heat, and utilities upon Owner’s
use or occupancy of the Work.
E. After Substantial Completion the Contractor
shall promptly begin work on the punch list of
items to be completed or corrected prior to
final payment. In appropriate cases Contractor
may submit monthly Applications for
Payment for completed punch list items,
following the progress payment procedures
set forth above.
F. Owner shall have the right to exclude
Contractor from the Site after the date of
Substantial Completion subject to allowing
Contractor reasonable access to remove its
property and complete or correct items on the
punch list.
15.04 Partial Use or Occupancy
A. Prior to Substantial Completion of all the
Work, Owner may use or occupy any
substantially completed part of the Work
which has specifically been identified in the
Contract Documents, or which Owner,
Engineer, and Contractor agree constitutes a
separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by Owner for its
intended purpose without significant
interference with Contractor’s performance of
the remainder of the Work, subject to the
following conditions:
At any time Owner may request in
writing that Contractor permit Owner to
use or occupy any such part of the Work
that Owner believes to be substantially
complete. If and when Contractor agrees
that such part of the Work is
substantially complete, Contractor,
Owner, and Engineer will follow the
procedures of Paragraph 15.03.A
through E for that part of the Work.
At any time Contractor may notify
Owner and Engineer in writing that
Contractor considers any such part of the
Work substantially complete and request
Engineer to issue a certificate of
Substantial Completion for that part of
the Work.
Within a reasonable time after either
such request, Owner, Contractor, and
Engineer shall make an inspection of that
part of the Work to determine its status
of completion. If Engineer does not
consider that part of the Work to be
substantially complete, Engineer will
notify Owner and Contractor in writing
giving the reasons therefor. If Engineer
considers that part of the Work to be
substantially complete, the provisions of
Paragraph 15.03 will apply with respect
to certification of Substantial
Completion of that part of the Work and
the division of responsibility in respect
thereof and access thereto.
No use or occupancy or separate
operation of part of the Work may occur
prior to compliance with the
requirements of Paragraph 6.05
regarding builder’s risk or other property
insurance.
15.05 Final Inspection
A. Upon written notice from Contractor that the
entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is
complete, Engineer will promptly make a final
inspection with Owner and Contractor and
will notify Contractor in writing of all
particulars in which this inspection reveals
that the Work, or agreed portion thereof, is
incomplete or defective. Contractor shall
immediately take such measures as are
necessary to complete such Work or remedy
such deficiencies.
15.06 Final Payment
A. Application for Payment:
After Contractor has, in the opinion of
Engineer, satisfactorily completed all
corrections identified during the final
inspection and has delivered, in
accordance with the Contract
Documents, all maintenance and
operating instructions, schedules,
guarantees, bonds, certificates or other
evidence of insurance, certificates of
inspection, annotated record documents
(as provided in Paragraph 7.11), and
other documents, Contractor may make
application for final payment.
The final Application for Payment shall
be accompanied (except as previously
delivered) by:
a. all documentation called for in the
Contract Documents;
b. consent of the surety, if any, to final
payment;
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 48 of 52
c. satisfactory evidence that all title
issues have been resolved such that
title to all Work, materials, and
equipment has passed to Owner
free and clear of any Liens or other
title defects, or will so pass upon
final payment.
d. a list of all disputes that Contractor
believes are unsettled; and
e. complete and legally effective
releases or waivers (satisfactory to
Owner) of all Lien rights arising
out of the Work, and of Liens filed
in connection with the Work.
In lieu of the releases or waivers of Liens
specified in Paragraph 15.06.A.2 and as
approved by Owner, Contractor may
furnish receipts or releases in full and an
affidavit of Contractor that: (a) the
releases and receipts include all labor,
services, material, and equipment for
which a Lien could be filed; and (b) all
payrolls, material and equipment bills,
and other indebtedness connected with
the Work for which Owner might in any
way be responsible, or which might in
any way result in liens or other burdens
on Owner's property, have been paid or
otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor
or Supplier fails to furnish such a release
or receipt in full, Contractor may furnish
a bond or other collateral satisfactory to
Owner to indemnify Owner against any
Lien, or Owner at its option may issue
joint checks payable to Contractor and
specified Subcontractors and Suppliers.
B. Engineer’s Review of Application and
Acceptance:
If, on the basis of Engineer’s observation
of the Work during construction and
final inspection, and Engineer’s review
of the final Application for Payment and
accompanying documentation as
required by the Contract Documents,
Engineer is satisfied that the Work has
been completed and Contractor’s other
obligations under the Contract have been
fulfilled, Engineer will, within ten days
after receipt of the final Application for
Payment, indicate in writing Engineer’s
recommendation of final payment and
present the Application for Payment to
Owner for payment. Such
recommendation shall account for any
set-offs against payment that are
necessary in Engineer’s opinion to
protect Owner from loss for the reasons
stated above with respect to progress
payments. At the same time Engineer
will also give written notice to Owner
and Contractor that the Work is
acceptable, subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 15.07. Otherwise, Engineer
will return the Application for Payment
to Contractor, indicating in writing the
reasons for refusing to recommend final
payment, in which case Contractor shall
make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application for Payment.
C. Completion of Work: The Work is complete
(subject to surviving obligations) when it is
ready for final payment as established by the
Engineer’s written recommendation of final
payment.
D. Payment Becomes Due: Thirty days after the
presentation to Owner of the final Application
for Payment and accompanying
documentation, the amount recommended by
Engineer (less any further sum Owner is
entitled to set off against Engineer’s
recommendation, including but not limited to
set-offs for liquidated damages and set-offs
allowed under the provisions above with
respect to progress payments) will become
due and shall be paid by Owner to Contractor.
15.07 Waiver of Claims
A. The making of final payment will not
constitute a waiver by Owner of claims or
rights against Contractor. Owner expressly
reserves claims and rights arising from
unsettled Liens, from defective Work
appearing after final inspection pursuant to
Paragraph 15.05, from Contractor’s failure to
comply with the Contract Documents or the
terms of any special guarantees specified
therein, from outstanding Claims by Owner,
or from Contractor’s continuing obligations
under the Contract Documents.
B. The acceptance of final payment by
Contractor will constitute a waiver by
Contractor of all claims and rights against
Owner other than those pending matters that
have been duly submitted or appealed under
the provisions of Article 17.
15.08 Correction Period
A. If within one year after the date of Substantial
Completion (or such longer period of time as
may be prescribed by the terms of any
applicable special guarantee required by the
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 49 of 52
Contract Documents, or by any specific
provision of the Contract Documents), any
Work is found to be defective, or if the repair
of any damages to the Site, adjacent areas that
Contractor has arranged to use through
construction easements or otherwise, and
other adjacent areas used by Contractor as
permitted by Laws and Regulations, is found
to be defective, then Contractor shall
promptly, without cost to Owner and in
accordance with Owner’s written instructions:
correct the defective repairs to the Site or
such other adjacent areas;
correct such defective Work;
if the defective Work has been rejected
by Owner, remove it from the Project
and replace it with Work that is not
defective, and
satisfactorily correct or repair or remove
and replace any damage to other Work,
to the work of others, or to other land or
areas resulting therefrom.
B. If Contractor does not promptly comply with
the terms of Owner’s written instructions, or
in an emergency where delay would cause
serious risk of loss or damage, Owner may
have the defective Work corrected or repaired
or may have the rejected Work removed and
replaced. Contractor shall pay all claims,
costs, losses, and damages (including but not
limited to all fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other professionals
and all court or arbitration or other dispute
resolution costs) arising out of or relating to
such correction or repair or such removal and
replacement (including but not limited to all
costs of repair or replacement of work of
others).
C. In special circumstances where a particular
item of equipment is placed in continuous
service before Substantial Completion of all
the Work, the correction period for that item
may start to run from an earlier date if so
provided in the Specifications.
D. Where defective Work (and damage to other
Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected
or removed and replaced under this paragraph,
the correction period hereunder with respect to
such Work will be extended for an additional
period of one year after such correction or
removal and replacement has been
satisfactorily completed.
E. Contractor’s obligations under this paragraph
are in addition to all other obligations and
warranties. The provisions of this paragraph
shall not be construed as a substitute for, or a
waiver of, the provisions of any applicable
statute of limitation or repose.
SUSPENSION OF WORK AND
TERMINATION
16.01 Owner May Suspend Work
A. At any time and without cause, Owner may
suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a
period of not more than 90 consecutive days
by written notice to Contractor and Engineer.
Such notice will fix the date on which Work
will be resumed. Contractor shall resume the
Work on the date so fixed. Contractor shall be
entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Price
or an extension of the Contract Times, or both,
directly attributable to any such suspension.
Any Change Proposal seeking such
adjustments shall be submitted no later than
30 days after the date fixed for resumption of
Work.
16.02 Owner May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events will constitute a default by
Contractor and justify termination for cause:
Contractor’s persistent failure to perform
the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents (including, but not
limited to, failure to supply sufficient
skilled workers or suitable materials or
equipment or failure to adhere to the
Progress Schedule);
Failure of Contractor to perform or
otherwise to comply with a material term
of the Contract Documents;
Contractor’s disregard of Laws or
Regulations of any public body having
jurisdiction; or
Contractor’s repeated disregard of the
authority of Owner or Engineer.
B. If one or more of the events identified in
Paragraph 16.02.A occurs, then after giving
Contractor (and any surety) ten days written
notice that Owner is considering a declaration
that Contractor is in default and termination of
the contract, Owner may proceed to:
declare Contractor to be in default, and
give Contractor (and any surety) notice
that the Contract is terminated; and
EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract.
Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies,
and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 50 of 52
enforce the rights available to Owner
under any applicable performance bond.
C. Subject to the terms and operation of any
applicable performance bond, if Owner has
terminated the Contract for cause, Owner may
exclude Contractor from the Site, take
possession of the Work, incorporate in the
Work all materials and equipment stored at the
Site or for which Owner has paid Contractor
but which are stored elsewhere, and complete
the Work as Owner may deem expedient.
D. Owner may not proceed with termination of
the Contract under Paragraph 16.02.B if
Contractor within seven days of receipt of
notice of intent to terminate begins to correct
its failure to perform and proceeds diligently
to cure such failure.
E. If Owner proceeds as provided in Paragraph
16.02.B, Contractor shall not be entitled to
receive any further payment until the Work is
completed. If the unpaid balance of the
Contract Price exceeds the cost to complete
the Work, including all related claims, costs,
losses, and damages (including but not limited
to all fees and charges of engineers, architects,
attorneys, and other professionals) sustained
by Owner, such excess will be paid to
Contractor. If the cost to complete the Work
including such related claims, costs, losses,
and damages exceeds such unpaid balance,
Contractor shall pay the difference to Owner.
Such claims, costs, losses, and damages
incurred by Owner will be reviewed by

remedies under this paragraph, Owner shall
not be required to obtain the lowest price for

by Owner will not release Contractor from
liability.

of that bond shall govern over any inconsistent
provisions of Paragraphs 16.02.B and

16.03 Owner May Terminate For Convenience
A. Upon seven days written notice to Contractor
and Engineer, Owner may, without cause and

executed in accordance with the
Contract Documents prior to the
effective date of termination, including
fair and reasonable sums for overhead
and profit on such Work;
expenses sustained prior to the effective
date of termination in performing
services and furnishing labor, materials,
or equipment as required by the Contract
Documents in connection with
uncompleted Work, plus fair and
reasonable sums for overhead and profit
on such expenses; and
other reasonable expenses directly
attributable to termination, including
costs incurred to prepare a termination
for convenience cost proposal.
B. Contractor shall not be paid on account of loss
of anticipated overhead, profits, or revenue, or
other economic loss arising out of or resulting
from such termination.
16.04 Contractor May Stop Work or Terminate
A. If, through no act or fault of Contractor, (1) the
Work is suspended for more than 90
consecutive days by Owner or under an order
of court or other public authority, or (2)
Engineer fails to act on any Application for
Payment within 30 days after it is submitted,
or (3) Owner fails for 30 days to pay
Contractor any sum finally determined to be
due, then Contractor may, upon seven days
written notice to Owner and Engineer, and
provided Owner or Engineer do not remedy
such suspension or failure within that time,
terminate the contract and recover from
Owner payment on the same terms as
provided in Paragraph 16.03.
B. In lieu of terminating the Contract and without
prejudice to any other right or remedy, if
Engineer has failed to act on an Application
for Payment within 30 days after it is
submitted, or Owner has failed for 30 days to
pay Contractor any sum finally determined to
be due, Contractor may, seven days after

SECTION 01 57 13
TEMPORARY EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
PART 1 GENERAL
1.01 SUMMARY
A. This section covers Work to implement structural and nonstructural Best
Management Practices (BMP) to control soil erosion by wind or water and
keep eroded sediments and other construction-generated pollutants from
moving off Project sites. Requirements described in this Specification and
shown on Drawings are part of the Project Temporary Erosion and Sediment
Control Plan (TESC Plan) and are the minimum for all Project construction
sites and conditions. This Specification covers all Project activities, including
material sources, disposal sites, and offsite mitigation areas unless specific
Project activities are excluded elsewhere in this Specification or in other
Contract Documents controlling the Work.
B. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System: Comply with federal, state,
and local laws, rules and regulations, and the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) Construction Stormwater Discharge Permit or
Permits applicable to the Project. A copy of the Project’s General
Construction Permit, if applicable to the Project, is available from Owner.
NPDES General Construction permits are required on projects that involve
disturbance of 1 acre or more with potential to discharge stormwater to
surface waters.
C. Other Regulations: A local government erosion and sediment control permit
may apply and some local agency requirements may be more stringent than
this Specification. Adequate erosion and sediment control is essential for
complying with the federal Endangered Species Act where construction runoff
enters waters inhabited by protected species.

Project, preserve and protect delineated area, acting immediately to repair or
restore any fencing damaged or removed.
F. Preventing erosion, and controlling runoff, sedimentation, and non-stormwater
pollution, requires Contractor to perform temporary Work items including, but
not limited to:
1. Providing ditches, berms, culverts, and other measures to control
surface water.
2. Building dams, settling basins, energy dissipaters, and other measures,
to control downstream flows.
3. Controlling underground water found during construction.
4. Covering or otherwise protecting slopes until permanent erosion control
measures are working.
G. To the degree possible, coordinate this temporary Work with permanent
drainage and erosion control work the Contract requires.
H. Engineer may require additional temporary control measures if it appears
pollution or erosion may result from weather, nature of materials, or progress
on the Work.
I. When natural elements rut or erode the slope, restore and repair damage with
eroded material where possible, and remove and dispose of any remaining
material found in ditches and culverts. When Engineer orders replacement
with additional or other materials, unit Contract prices will cover quantities
needed.
J. Install all sediment control devices including, but not limited to, sediment
ponds, perimeter silt fencing, or other sediment trapping BMPs prior to any
ground disturbing activity. Do not expose more erodible earth than necessary
during clearing, grubbing, excavation, borrow, or fill activities without written
approval by Engineer. Engineer may increase or decrease the limits based on
project conditions. Erodible earth is defined as any surface where soils,
grindings, or other materials may be capable of being displaced and
transported by rain, wind, or surface water runoff. Cover inactive areas of
erodible earth, whether at final grade or not, within specified time period (see
[NPDES] Erosion and Sediment Control Permit), using an approved soil
covering practice. Phase clearing and grading to maximum extent practical to
prevent exposed inactive areas from becoming a source of erosion.

K. Water Management:
1. Manage site water in accordance with the conditions of the waste
discharge permit from a local permitting authority. If site water
management is not subject to permit, manage as follows:
a. Groundwater. When groundwater is encountered in an excavation,
treat and discharge as follows:
1) Dewatering fluids may bypass detention and treatment
facilities and be routed directly to the sanitary sewer.
b. Process Water:
1) Do not discharge high pH process water or wastewater (non-
stormwater) that is generated onsite, including water
generated during concrete grinding, rubblizing, washout,
and hydrodemolition activities, to waters of the Washington
State, including wetlands. Water may be infiltrated upon
approval of Engineer. Offsite disposal of concrete process
water is subject to approval of Engineer.
2) Treat all water generated onsite from construction or
washing activities that is more turbid than site runoff
separately until turbidity is the same or less than site runoff,
and then it may be combined with site runoff and treated as
described above. Water may be infiltrated upon approval of
Engineer.
c. Offsite Water: Prior to disruption of normal watercourse, intercept
offsite stormwater and pipe it either through or around the Project
Site. This water shall not be combined with onsite stormwater.
Discharge offsite water at its preconstruction outfall point
preventing an increase in erosion below the Site. Submit proposed
method for performing this Work for Engineer’s approval.
L. Dispersion/Infiltration: Convey water only to dispersion or infiltration areas
designated in the TESC Plan or to sites approved by Engineer. Water shall be
conveyed to designated dispersion areas at a rate such that, when runoff leaves
the area and enters waters of the Washington State, turbidity standards are
achieved. Convey water to designated infiltration areas at a rate that does not
produce surface runoff.
M. Detention/Retention Pond Construction: Whether permanent or temporary,
construct before beginning other grading and excavation Work in the area that
drains into that pond. Install temporary conveyances concurrently with
grading in accordance with the TESC Plan so that newly graded areas drain to
the pond as they are exposed.

N. Pollution Control: Use BMPs to prevent or minimize stormwater exposure to
pollutants from spills; vehicle and equipment fueling, maintenance, and
storage; other cleaning and maintenance activities; and waste handling
activities. These pollutants include fuel, hydraulic fluid, and other oils from
vehicles and machinery, as well as debris, leftover paints, solvents, and glues
from construction operations. Implement the following BMPs when
applicable:
1. Written spill prevention and response procedures.
2. Employee training on spill prevention and proper disposal procedures.
3. Spill kits in all vehicles.
4. Regular maintenance schedule for vehicles and machinery.
5. Material delivery and storage controls.
6. Training and signage.
7. Covered storage areas for waste and supplies.
O. If Engineer orders the Work suspended, continue to control erosion, pollution,
and runoff during the shutdown.
P. Nothing in this section shall relieve Contractor from complying with other
Contract requirements.
1.04 SUBMITTALS
A. Informational Submittals:
1. When a TESC Plan is included on Drawings, either adopt or modify the
TESC Plan. Provide a schedule for TESC Plan implementation and
incorporate it into Contractor’s progress schedule. Obtain Engineer’s
approval of the TESC Plan and schedule before any Work begins.
2. Modified TESC Plans shall meet all requirements of the applicable
jurisdictions.
3. The TESC Plan shall cover all areas that may be affected inside and
outside the limits of the Project (including all Owner-provided sources,
disposal sites, and haul roads, and all nearby land, streams, and other
bodies of water).
4. Allow at least 5 working days for Engineer to review any original or
revised TESC Plan. Failure to approve all or part of any such Plan shall
not make Owner liable to Contractor for any Work delays.
