FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Board Discussion on District Manager
Appointment and Continuation of the Inframark Contract
The following was discussed:
Mr. Ritter discussed previous concerns the Board had regarding a succession plan if Mr. Cassel were to leave Inframark, which resulted in an RFQ for management services. Inframark was ranked first, and a new contract was executed.
After Mr. Cassel announced he was moving and would no longer be the District Manager, Mr. Ritter requested Mr. McIntosh investigate what the scope of the work would look like if the District Management function was to be brough in-house.
Mr. McIntosh explained most of the work can be done in-house except for the annual assessments; however, those services can be contracted with a third party. He also reviewed the transition in capabilities of staff since Mr. Cassel

started, and how they have become self-sufficient and accountable for their departments.
Mr. Ritter noted the main benefit of having Inframark was Mr. Cassel due to his experience and knowledge. He asked about the assessments.
Mr. McIntosh agreed Mr. Cassel’s experience was valuable. He got staff to have the necessary institutional knowledge along with a succession plan for each department. The assessments can be done by a third party, and he has already reached out to an assessment specialist.
Mr. Ritter asked what the protocol would be to terminate under the current contract.
Mr. Behn reviewed the clauses in the contract and what the process would be to terminate the contract. Based on the terms of the contract, the Board can exercise the 60-day termination clause.

On Motion by Mr. Ritter seconded by Mr. McEwen with all in favor the contract with Inframark was terminated effective 60 days from today’s meeting and District Counsel was directed to provide the termination notice.

Such test period can be from thirty to ninety days, and will be conducted under all specifications, terms and conditions contained in the contract. This trial period will then become part of the initial contract period.

A performance evaluation will be conducted prior to the end of the test period and that evaluation will be the basis for the City's decision to continue with the Contractor or to select another Contractor (if applicable).

Contract Coordinator
The City may designate a Contract Coordinator whose principal duties shall be:

Liaison with Contractor.
Coordinate and approve all work under the contract.
Resolve any disputes.
Assure consistency and quality of Contractor's performance.
Schedule and conduct Contractor performance evaluations and document findings.
Review and approve for payment all invoices for work performed or items delivered.

Contractor Performance Reviews and Ratings
The City Contract Coordinator may develop a Contractor performance evaluation report. This report shall be used to periodically review and rate the Contractor's performance under the contract with performance rating as follows:

Excellent	Far exceeds requirements.
Good	Exceeds requirements
Fair	Just meets requirements.
Poor	Does not meet all requirements, and contractor is subject to penalty provisions under the contact.
Non-compliance	Either continued poor performance after notice or a performance level that does not meet a significant portion of the requirements.
This rating makes the Contractor subject to the default or cancellation for cause
provisions of the contract.

The report shall also list all discrepancies found during the review period. The Contractor shall be provided with a copy of the report and may respond in writing if he takes exception to the report or wishes to comment on the report. Contractor performance reviews and subsequent reports will be used in determining the suitability of contract extension.

City Commission Agenda Memo REGULAR MEETING

#25-0940

TO:	Honorable Mayor & Members of the Fort Lauderdale City Commission

FROM:	Rickelle Williams, City Manager

DATE:	October 23, 2025

TITLE:	Motion Approving Agreements for Invitation to Bid No. 519-2, Purchase of Sodium Hypochlorite - Allied Universal Corporation and Odyssey Manufacturing Company - $564,402 (Two-Year Aggregate) - (Commission Districts 1, 2, 3 and 4)

Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Commission approve agreements, in substantially the forms attached, for the purchase of sodium hypochlorite from Allied Universal Corporation and Odyssey Manufacturing Company for an initial two (2)-year term in the estimated aggregate amount of $564,402; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreements and approve two (2) one (1)-year renewal options for an estimated annual aggregate renewal amount of $282,201, for a potential total contract amount of $1,128,804, contingent upon appropriation of funds.

Background
During the water treatment process, sodium hypochlorite is added to the finished water at the Peele Dixie Water Treatment Plant to deliver a disinfectant residual sustained throughout the distribution system. During a two (2)-year term, the City expects to utilize approximately 340,000 gallons of sodium hypochlorite delivered via tanker trucks.

The City of Fort Lauderdale is a lead agency for the Southeast Florida Governmental Cooperative (Co-op), a collective of approximately 45 governmental entities that combine their purchasing power to provide cost savings and achieve fixed and firm prices to all entities by utilizing standardized requirements for common basic line items. This Co-op contract will allow other municipalities and governmental entities in need of sodium hypochlorite to receive the same product and services under the same terms, conditions and prices.

On August 13, 2025, the City, via the Procurement Services Division issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 519-2. The bid was extended to entice competition and on September 5, 2025, the bid opened with two (2) responses submitted by Allied Universal Corporation and Odyssey Manufacturing Company. Other potential suppliers that were invited to bid cited not having sufficient capacity as the reason for not submitting a bid.
The bid responses provided by both Allied Universal Corporation and Odyssey Manufacturing Company have met the ITB criteria and both organizations have been deemed responsive and responsible bidders. Therefore, staff recommends both Allied Universal Corporation and Odyssey Manufacturing Company for award. As the need for

the chemical arises, a purchase order will be issued to the lowest bidder capable of timely delivery.

Resource Impact
There will be a fiscal impact to the City in the estimated amount of $282,201. Funds are available in the FY 2026 Operating Budget in the account listed below.

Department’s Rights to Reject Bids
The Department may reject any Bid not submitted in the manner specified by this solicitation.

Bids that do not meet all requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions of the solicitation or fail to provide all required information, documents, or materials may be rejected as non-responsive. Bidders whose Bids, references, or current status do not reflect the capability, integrity, or reliability to fully and in good faith perform the requirements of the Term Contract may be rejected as not responsible. The Department reserves the right to determine which Bids meet the requirements of this solicitation and which Bidders are responsive and responsible. The Department is placing vendors on notice of the prohibitions against considering social, political, or ideological interests in government contracting contained in section 287.05701, F.S.

In this solicitation, the words “should” or “may” indicate desirable attributes or conditions but are permissive in nature. Where language indicates that the attribute or condition is mandatory, the Department still reserves the right to waive any minor irregularity if the Department determines that it is in the best interest of the State to do so.

A deviation from a requirement or condition is material if, in the Department’s discretion, it provides a substantial advantage to one Bidder over another or has a potentially significant effect on the quality of the Bid or on the cost to the State.
THE ITB PROCESS

Question Submission
The Department invites interested and registered Vendors to submit questions regarding the solicitation. Questions must be submitted in the Business Network by the time and date
reflected in the ‘Timeline of Events’ section. Bidders are strongly encouraged to ask any questions regarding this ITB, including the proposed Term Contract terms and conditions, prior to the deadline to submit questions. The Department is not obligated to revise the solicitation or attachments and the answers posted to the Questions and Answers by the date in the Timeline of Events section of this ITB do not in themselves constitute addenda to this ITB.
Addenda to the ITB
The Department reserves the right to modify this solicitation by addenda. Addenda may modify any aspect of this solicitation. Any addenda issued will be posted on VIP and the Business Network. It is the Bidder’s responsibility to check VIP and the Business Network for any changes throughout the solicitation process and prior to submitting a Bid.

Public Opening
Bids will be opened, and the names of Bidders will be announced at a public meeting on the date and at the location indicated in the Timeline of Events section, as may be revised by addenda. In accordance with section 119.071(1)(b), F.S., the Department will not provide other information regarding the received Bids at the public bid opening. Bidders are not required to attend the public bid opening.
Special Accommodations
Any person requiring a special accommodation due to a disability should contact the Department’s Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Coordinator at 850-922-7535 or ADA.Coordinator@dms.fl.gov at least five Business Days prior to the scheduled event. If hearing or speech-impaired, please contact the ADA Coordinator by using the Florida Relay Service at 800-955-8771 (TDD).
Mandatory Responsive Requirements
The Department will not review Bids from Bidders who do not meet the mandatory responsive requirements listed in Attachment B, Mandatory Responsive Requirements.

Note: The Department will perform an initial responsiveness check. Bids found to be non-responsive will not be considered for award. The Department reserves the right to act upon information discovered during and after the initial responsiveness check impacting the responsibility or responsiveness of the Bid or Bidder.

Preference to Florida Businesses
Pursuant to the requirements of section 287.084(1)(a), F.S., if the “lowest responsible and responsive Bid” is by a Bidder whose principal place of business is located outside the State, and whose principal place of business is in a state or political subdivision thereof which grants a preference for the purchase of such personal property to a person whose principal place of business is in such state, the Department will award a preference to the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder having a principal place of business within Florida, which preference is equal to the preference granted by the state or political subdivision thereof in which the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder has its principal place of business.

If the lowest Bid is submitted by a Bidder whose principal place of business is located outside the State, and that state does not grant a preference in a competitive solicitation to Bidders having a principal place of business in that state, the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder having a principal place of business in this State will be granted a five percent preference.

If, pursuant to the Basis of Award section of this solicitation, the Department intends to award Term Contracts to multiple lowest responsive and responsible Bidders which includes Bidder(s) whose principal place of business is located outside of the State, then the Department will apply this preference to all responsive and responsible Bidders having a principal place of business within Florida.

Application of this preference will be accomplished by assessing the applicable percentage to the Total Calculated Markup of the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder(s) whose principal place of business is located within Florida such that the preference is provided to all responsive and responsible Bidder(s) having a principal place of business within Florida. In other words, the applicable percentage will be applied to the responsive and

responsible Bidder(s) having a principal place of business within Florida and the resulting amount subtracted from such Bidder(s)’ Total Calculated Markup.
All Bidders must submit a completed Attachment J, Principal Place of Business Letter, with the Bid submittal.

Equal Bids
In the event that there is no multiple award contemplated in the ITB, and the Department receives equal Bids eligible for award, the Department will comply with the following, as applicable: sections 287.057(12), 287.082, 287.087, 287.092, 295.187(4)(a), and 295.187(4)(b), F.S. In order
to clarify the Bidders’ status with regard to the applicable statutory preference requirements, the Department may request information from Bidders with equal eligible bids. A Bidder will not be permitted to amend or supplement its Bid in response to such request for clarification.
Basis of Award
GROUP A – Bobtail Delivery

For each Bid submitted, the Bidder is required to provide a Markup per gallon for both Customer-Owned Tank (a) and Vendor-Owned Tank (b) for both the Initial Term and Renewal Term for each county in which the Bidder seeks to receive an award. The Department will not consider or evaluate a Bid for Bobtail Delivery (Group A) that fails to contain a Markup per gallon for both Customer-Owned Tank (a) and Vendor-Owned Tank (b) for both the Initial Term and Renewal Term for the county for which the Bidder is seeking to receive an award.
For each county, Bobtail Delivery (Group A) will be awarded to the responsible and responsive Bidder with the lowest Total Group A Calculated Markup for such county. The Department may issue up to an additional two awards for a particular county to the Bidder(s) who have the second and third lowest Total Group A Calculated Markups and are within 20 percent of the lowest Qualified Bidder’s Total Group A Calculated Markup. In the event there is a tie between two or more Qualified Bidders for a particular county, the Department reserves the right to award more than three contracts to those Qualified Bidders with the lowest Total Group A Calculated Markups who fall within 20 percent of the lowest Qualified Bidder’s Total Group A Calculated Markup.

The Bidder’s individual Group A Calculated Markup for the Initial Term and Renewal Term will be calculated in Attachment C, Markup Sheet, which automatically adds the Bidder’s submitted Customer-Owned Tank Markup per Gallon (a) and Vendor-Owned Tank Markup per Gallon (b) for the respective term of the Term Contract. The Bidder’s Total Group A Calculated Markup for both the Initial Term and Renewal Term shall be calculated using the following formula:
(AI x 0.6) + (AR x 0.4) = Z

Where:

AI = Initial Term Group A Calculated Markup
AR = Renewal Term Group A Calculated Markup Z = Total Group A Calculated Markup

GROUP B – Transport Delivery
For each Bid submitted, the Bidder is required to provide a Markup per gallon for both the Initial Term and Renewal Term for each county in which the Bidder seeks to receive an award. The Department will not consider or evaluate a Bid for Transport Delivery (Group B) that fails to contain both the Initial Term and Renewal Term for the county for which the Bidder is seeking to receive an award.
For each county, Transport Delivery (Group B) will be awarded to the responsible and responsive Bidder with the lowest Total Group B Calculated Markup for such county. The Department may issue up to an additional two awards for a particular county to the Bidder(s) who have the second and third lowest Total Group B Calculated Markups and are within 20 percent of the lowest Qualified Bidder’s Total Group B Calculated Markup. In the event there is a tie between two or more Qualified Bidders for a particular county, the Department reserves the right to award more than three contracts to those Qualified Bidders with the lowest Total Group B Calculated Markups who fall within 20 percent of the lowest Qualified Bidder’s Total Group B Calculated Markup.
The Bidder’s Total Group B Calculated Markup shall be calculated using the following formula:

(BI x 0.6) + (BR x 0.4) = Z
Where:

BI = Initial Term Group B Markup per Gallon
BR = Renewal Term Group B Markup per Gallon Z = Total Group B Calculated Markup

Total Calculated Markups for Group A and Group B
The calculation of the Bidder’s Total Group A Calculated Markup and Total Group B Calculated Markup shall be calculated using the above formulas and will be calculated by the Procurement Officer.

Department’s Right to Award
The Department reserves the right to award to one or multiple bidders, statewide or by region, or to make no award, as determined to be in the best interest of the State. The Department reserves the right to accept or reject any and all offers, or separable portions, and to waive any minor irregularity, technicality, or omission if the Department determines that doing so will serve the State of Florida’s best interest.

The Department reserves the right to award one or multiple Term Contracts, statewide or by region; to award Term Contract(s) for all or part of the work contemplated by this solicitation; or to make no award, as determined to be in the best interest of the State. The Department reserves the right to reject all Bids. The Department reserves the right to award Term Contract(s) to the next lowest responsive Bid(s) from responsive and responsible Bidder(s) to this solicitation if the Department cannot execute a Term Contract with a Bidder previously awarded a Term Contract. The Department reserves

the right to award to another vendor if the Department is unable to execute a Term Contract with the initially or previously awarded Bidder.

Electronic Posting of Notice of Intent to Award
The Department will electronically post a Notice of Intent to Award on VIP and in the Business Network in accordance with the Timeline of Events of this ITB, as may be revised by addenda. The Notice of Intent to Award will remain posted for a period of 72 hours, not including Saturdays and Sundays or State holidays, as specified in section 110.117, F.S.

Contract Formation
The Department may issue a Notice of Intent to Award to award Term Contract(s) to successful Bidder(s). The award does not imply execution of a Term Contract. No contract shall be formed between a Bidder and the Department until both parties sign the Term Contract. Customers shall not be liable for any work performed before the Term Contract is effective.
The Department intends to enter into the Term Contract(s) with Bidder(s) pursuant to the Basis for Award section of this solicitation. No additional documents submitted by a Bidder shall be incorporated in the Term Contract unless they are specifically identified, incorporated by reference, and approved by the Department. If any additional documents are submitted by the Bidder, the additional documents will not be considered for the Basis for Award.
Other Requirements Following Award

This includes disclosure of the names of current employees who were convicted of public entity crimes while in the employ of another company.

Neither the Bidder nor any person associated with it in the capacity of owner, partner, director, officer, principal, investigator, project director, manager, auditor, or in a position involving the administration of federal funds:
Is presently indicted or, within the preceding three years, has been convicted or found guilty of, or found civilly liable for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a federal, state, or local government transaction or public contract; violation of federal or state antitrust statutes; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, or receiving stolen property; or

The Bidder shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Department, Customer, and their employees against any cost, damage, or expense which may be incurred or be caused by the Bidder’s Bid (including any errors therein).
All information provided by, and representations made by, the Bidder are material and important and will be relied upon by the Department in awarding the Term Contract. Any misstatement may be treated as fraudulent concealment from the Department and Customers of the true facts relating to submission of the Bid. A misrepresentation may be punishable under law.
The Department reserves the right to deem the Bidder non-responsive or non-responsible based on any information provided in, or omitted from, the Bidder’s Bid related to the certifications of this section.

11. Performance Qualifications. The Customer reserves the right to investigate or inspect at any time whether the product, qualifications, or facilities offered by the Vendor meet the Term Contract requirements. Vendor shall at all times during the Term Contract term remain responsive and responsible. In determining a Vendor’s responsibility, DMS shall consider all information or evidence which is gathered or comes to the attention of the agency which demonstrates the Vendor’s capability to fully satisfy the requirements of the solicitation and the Term Contract.

A Vendor must be prepared, if requested, to present evidence of experience, ability, and financial standing, as well as a statement as to plant, machinery, and capacity of the respondent for the production, distribution, and servicing of the product bid. If DMS determines that the conditions of the solicitation documents are not complied with, or that the product proposed to be furnished does not meet the specified requirements, or that the qualifications, financial standing, or facilities are not satisfactory, or that performance is untimely, DMS may reject the response or terminate the Term Contract. A Vendor may be disqualified from receiving awards if Vendor, or anyone in Vendor’s employment, has previously failed to perform satisfactorily in connection with public bidding or contracts. This paragraph shall not mean or imply that it is obligatory upon DMS to make an investigation either before or after award of the Term Contract, but should DMS elect to do so, a Vendor is not relieved from fulfilling all Term Contract requirements.
14. Firm Response. The Department intends to make an award within 60 days after the date of the opening, during which period Bids shall remain firm and shall not be withdrawn. If award is not made within 60 days, the Bid shall remain firm until the Department enters into a Term Contract or the Department receives from the Bidder written notice that the Bid is withdrawn.
15. Clarifying Information. The Department may request, and Bidder shall provide, clarifying information or documentation. Failure to supply the information or documentation as requested may result in the Bid being deemed non-responsive.

19. Public Records. Article 1, section 24, Florida Constitution, guarantees every person access to all public records, and section 119.011, F.S., provides a broad
definition of “public record.” As such, the entirety of the Bids are public records and are
subject to disclosure unless exempt from disclosure by law. If the Bidder considers any portion of its Bid to be Confidential Information, the Bidder is to mark the document as “confidential” and simultaneously provide the Department with a separate, redacted copy of its Bid. For each portion redacted, the Bidder is to briefly describe in writing the grounds for claiming exemption, including the specific statutory citation for such exemption. On the cover of the redacted copy, the Bidder is to provide its name and the Department’s solicitation name and number and clearly title it, “Redacted Copy.” Only portions of material that the Bidder claims are Confidential Information are to be redacted.
In accordance with section 119.071(1)(b), F.S., Bids are exempt from production in response to public records requests until such time as the Department provides notice of an intended decision or until 30 days after opening the Bids, whichever is earlier. After that time, the Department will provide the redacted copy, if any, in response to a public records request. If the Bidder fails to mark a record it claims contains Confidential
Information as “confidential,” or fails to submit a redacted copy in accordance with this section of a record it claims contains Confidential Information, the Department shall have no liability for release of such record. The foregoing will apply to every instance in which the Bidder fails to both mark a record “confidential” and redact it in accordance with this section, regardless of whether the Bidder may have properly marked and redacted the same or similar Confidential Information in another instance or record submitted to the Department.

In the event of a request for public records pursuant to Chapter 119, F.S., the Florida Constitution, or other authority, to which documents that are marked as “confidential” are

responsive, the Department will provide the redacted copy to the requestor. If the Bidder has marked a record as “confidential” but failed to provide a redacted copy to the Department, the Department may notify the Bidder of the request and the Bidder may have up to ten (10) Business Days from the date of the notice to provide a Bidder-redacted copy, or else the Department may release the unredacted record to the requestor without liability. If a requestor asserts a right to the redacted Confidential
Information, the Department will notify the Bidder such an assertion has been made. The notice will provide that if the Bidder seeks to protect the Bidder-redacted Confidential Information from release it must, within thirty (30) days after the date of the notice and at its own expense, file a cause of action seeking a declaratory judgment that the
information in question is exempt from section 119.07(1), F.S., or other applicable law and an order prohibiting the Department from publicly disclosing the information. The Bidder shall provide written notice to the Department of any cause of action filed. If the Bidder fails to file a cause of action within thirty (30) days the Department may release the unredacted copy of the record to the requestor without liability.

If the Department becomes subject to a demand for discovery or disclosure of documents that are marked as “confidential” in a legal proceeding, (whether by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, or similar process), unless otherwise prohibited by law, the Department will give the Bidder notice of the demand or request prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to allow the Bidder to seek a protective order or other appropriate relief at the Bidder’s sole discretion and expense. If the Bidder fails to take appropriate and timely action to protect the materials it has designated as Confidential Information or fails to provide a redacted copy that may be disclosed, the Department will provide the unredacted materials to the requester.

By submitting a Bid, the Bidder agrees to protect, defend, and indemnify the Department for all claims, costs, fines, settlement fees, and attorneys’ fees, at both the trial and appellate levels, arising from or relating to the Bidder’s determination its records contain Confidential Information. In the event of a third-party claim brought against the Department for failure to release the Bidder’s redacted Confidential Information, the Bidder shall assume, at its sole expense, the defense or settlement of such claim, including attorney’s fees and costs at both the trial and appellate levels. If the Bidder
fails to continuously undertake the defense or settlement of such claim or if the Bidder and the Department mutually agree that the Department is best suited to undertake the defense or settlement, the Department will have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense or settlement of such claim, at its discretion. The Bidder shall be bound by any defense or settlement the Department may make as to such claim, and the Bidder agrees to reimburse the Department for the expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs at both the trial and appellate levels associated with any
defense or settlement that the Department may undertake to defend Bidder’s
Confidential Information. The Department will also be entitled to join the Bidder in any third-party claim for the purpose of enforcing any right of indemnity under this section.
If at any point the Department is reasonably advised by its counsel that disclosure of the Confidential Information is required by law, including but not limited to Florida’s public records laws, the Department may disclose such Confidential Information without liability hereunder.

20. Protests. Any protest concerning this solicitation should be made in accordance with sections 120.57(3) and 287.042(2), F.S., and Chapter 28-110, F.A.C. Any communication not in accordance with these sections or the solicitation, including questions to the Procurement Officer, will not constitute formal notice of a protest.

The change in PPI for second and subsequent Markup adjustments shall be determined using the latest PPI that was used to support the previous Markup adjustment and the latest available non-preliminary PPI at the time of the request.
When requesting a Markup increase, the Contractor shall submit a written justification to the Department’s Contract Manager detailing the reason(s) for the request; an increase in the PPI is not sufficient justification for a Markup increase by itself. Markup increases shall not exceed the percent change in PPI or three percent, whichever is less. The percent change in PPI shall be calculated using the following formula:
(B – A) / A = Z

Where:
A = Earliest PPI (PPI at time of initial contract or renewal execution or previous Markup adjustment)
B = Latest PPI (Latest available non-preliminary PPI at time of Markup adjustment request) Z = Percent change in PPI

Markup adjustments are effective only upon written approval by the Department and may not be applied retroactively. The Department’s Contract Manager shall notify the Contractor if the requested Markup adjustment is approved. Such notice is sufficient to effectuate this change without requiring a written amendment to the Term Contract.

The Department reserves the right to request Markup decreases at any time during the term of the Term Contract if it is found to be in the best interest of the State. Markup decreases issued by the Contractor are permissible at any time during the initial and renewal terms.

Customer Service
The Contractor shall provide Customers all contractual products and services during Business Days, except for holidays observed by state agencies. For further information concerning State-observed holidays, please visit: https://www.dms.myflorida.com/workforce_operations/human_resource_management/for_state
_personnel_system_hr_practitioners/state_holidays

If the actual holiday falls on a Saturday, the State observes the preceding Friday as a holiday. When a holiday falls on a Sunday, the State observes the following Monday as a holiday.

The Contractor shall have a single point of contact to serve as the Contractor’s Contract Manager. The Contractor’s Contract Manager shall support multiple Customers and must respond to Customer calls and/or emails within one business day. The Contractor’s Contract Manager must be able to provide or arrange for all aspects of Customer support and problem resolution. Back-up coverage for the Contractor’s Contract Manager must be provided by an equally knowledgeable person.
In addition to a dedicated Contractor’s Contract Manager, the Contractor shall provide a toll-free Customer service phone support from 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, except for State-recognized holidays. Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) access must be made available during the above-named Customer service operating hours.

Routine Communications
All routine communications and reports related to this Term Contract shall be sent to the Department’s Contract Manager. Communications relating to a specific Customer order should be addressed to the contact person identified on the Customer order. Communications may be made by email, regular mail, or telephone except where the preferred method of communication is specified, in which case communications shall be made pursuant to the specifically listed method of communication.

Inspection
Section 215.422, F.S., provides that agencies have five working days, unless the contract specifies otherwise, to inspect and approve commodities or contractual services. Items may be tested for compliance with specifications. Items delivered not conforming to specifications may be rejected and returned at the Contractor’s expense. Interest penalties for late payment are also limited according to section 215.422, F.S. Samples of delivered Commodities may be selected at random by Customers or Department and tested for compliance with the requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions set forth in the Term Contract and any Customer agreement.

If the delivered Commodities are non-compliant, the Contractor shall provide the Customer a full refund or replace the Commodities with compliant Commodities within 10 Business Days. The Customer has the sole discretion to determine whether a replacement or refund will be provided.

Compliance and Compatibility
It is the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the Commodities/Services supplied are compliant with the Term Contract requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions. Additionally, the Contractor shall ensure that all Commodities ordered by the Customer are fully compatible with each other and with any associated pre-existing Commodity possessed by the Customer and disclosed to the Contractor by the Customer. The Contractor’s acceptance of the Customer’s order shall indicate that the Contractor agrees to deliver a Commodity/Service(s) that is fully compliant and compatible with the Customer’s order requirements, specifications, terms, and conditions.
Request for Quotes Requirement
Customers shall use a Request for Quotes in accordance with section 287.056(2), F. S., and Rule 60A-1.043, F.A.C., when making purchases off this State Term Contract (Term Contract). For any purchases off the Term Contract, the Contractor recognizes its responsibility for all tasks and deliverables contained in the Term Contract and any Customer Request for Quote, warrants that it has fully informed itself of all relevant factors affecting accomplishment of the tasks and deliverables, and agrees to be fully accountable for the performance thereof.
Invoices
Written or electronic invoices must clearly identify the quantity, the Contractor’s name, Contract number, purchase order number, unit cost, and total cost and delivery charge if applicable.

Punchout Catalog and Electronic Invoicing
The Contractor’s use of the MFMP punchout catalog is optional but encouraged. The punchout catalog provides an alternative mechanism for suppliers to offer the State access to Products awarded under the Term Contract. The punchout catalog also allows for direct communication between the MFMP eProcurement System and a supplier’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, which can reflect real-time Product inventory/availability information.

The punchout catalog enables Florida buyers to “punch out” to a supplier’s website. Using the search tools on the supplier’s Floridapunchout catalog site, the user selects the desired Products. When complete, the user exits the supplier’s punchout catalog site and the shopping cart (full of Products) is “brought back” to MFMP. No orders are sent to a supplier when the user exits the supplier’s punchout catalog site. Instead, the chosen Products are “brought back” to MFMP as line items in a purchase order. The user can then proceed through the normal workflow steps, which may include adding, deleting, and editing Products (i.e., line items) in the purchase order. An order is not submitted to a supplier until the user approves and submits the purchase order, at which point the supplier receives an email with the order details.
The Contractor may supply electronic invoices in lieu of paper-based invoices for those transactions processed through MFMP. Electronic invoices may be submitted to the Customer through one of the mechanisms as listed below:
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)
This standard establishes the data contents of the Invoice Transaction Set (EDI 810) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. This transaction set can be used for invoicing via the Business Network (formerly known as

Ariba Network) for catalog and non-catalog goods and services.
PO Flip via BN
This online process allows Contractors to submit invoices via the BN for catalog and non-catalog goods and services. Contractors are able to create an invoice directly from their inbox in their BN account by simply "flipping" the PO into an invoice. This option does not require any special software or technical capabilities.
The Contractor warrants and represents that it is authorized and empowered to and hereby grants the State and the third-party provider of MFMP, a State contractor, the right and license to use, reproduce, transmit, distribute, and publicly display within MFMP the information described above. In addition, the Contractor warrants and represents that it is authorized and empowered to and hereby grants the State and the third-party provider the right and license to reproduce and display within MFMP the Contractor's trademarks, system marks, logos, trade dress, or other branding designation that identifies the Productsmade available by the Contractor under the Term Contract.

Payments
Payments shall be made in accordance with sections 215.422 and 287.0585, F.S., for State agencies, and the Local Government Prompt Payment Act, sections 218.70-218.80, F.S., for local governmental entities.

Financial Consequences
Failure to comply with the requirements of the Term Contract will result in the imposition of financial consequences. The following financial consequences will apply for the Contractor’s failure to meet the performance metric standard and due date corresponding with the deliverables under the Term Contract. The Customer may impose additional Financial Consequences beyond those stated herein to apply to that Customer’s purchase. The State of Florida reserves the right to withhold payment or implement other appropriate remedies, such as Term Contract termination, or nonrenewal, when the Contractor has failed to comply with the provisions of the Term Contract.
The financial consequences below will be paid and received by the Department of Management Services within 30 calendar days from the due date specified by the Department. These financial consequences below are individually assessed for failures over each target period beginning with the first full month or quarter of the Term Contract performance and every month or quarter, respectively, thereafter.

SECTION 3. CONTRACT CONSTRUCTION AND ADMINISTRATION

Construction. Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) the words "include," "includes," and "including" are deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation;" (ii) the word "or" is not exclusive; and (iii) the words "herein," "hereof," "hereby," "hereto," and "hereunder" refer to the Term Contract as a whole, inclusive of all Attachments. Unless the context requires otherwise, references herein to (i) sections or Attachments mean the sections of, or Attachments to, the Term Contract; (ii) an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (iii) a statute, rule, or other law or regulation means such statute, rule, or other law or regulation as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

The Term Contract will be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Attachments referred to herein will be construed with, and as an integral part of, the Term Contract to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

Administration. Execution in Counterparts. The Term Contract may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be an original and all of which will constitute but one and the same instrument.
Notices. Where the term “written notice” is used to specify a notice requirement herein, said notice will be deemed to have been given (i) when personally delivered;
(ii) email (with confirmation of receipt) the day immediately following the day (except if not a Business Day then the next Business Day) on which the notice or communication has been provided prepaid by the sender to a recognized overnight delivery service; or (iii) on the date actually received except where there is a date of the certification of receipt.

Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall deliver all notices to the Department’s Contract Manager and the Department shall deliver all notices to the Contractor’s Contract Manager.

Severability. If a court deems any non-material provision of the Term Contract void or unenforceable, all other provisions will remain in full force and effect. Upon a determination that any material provision is void or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Term Contract to give effect to the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
Waiver. The delay or failure by the Department to exercise or enforce any of its rights under the Term Contract will not constitute or be deemed a waiver of the Department’s right thereafter to enforce those rights, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.
Survivability. The Term Contract and any and all promises, covenants, and representations made herein are binding upon the parties hereto and any and all respective heirs, assigns, and successors in interest. The respective obligations of the parties, which by their nature would continue beyond the termination or expiration of the Term Contract, including without limitation, the obligations regarding confidentiality, proprietary interests, reporting, and public records, will survive termination or expiration of the Term Contract.
Third Party Beneficiaries. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Term Contract is for the benefit of the parties hereto. The Term Contract is not intended to confer any legal rights or benefits on any other party, except such rights and benefits associated with a purchase made by a Customer off this Term Contract.

SECTION 4. CONTRACT TERM, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION.

Term. The initial term will begin on the date set forth in the Term Contract documents or on the date the Term Contract is signed by all parties, whichever is later.

Upon written agreement, the Department and the Contractor may renew the Term Contract in whole or in part only as set forth in the Term Contract documents, and in accordance with section 287.057(13), F.S. No costs may be charged for the renewals.

Suspension of Work and Termination.
Suspension of Work. The Department may, in its sole discretion, suspend any or all activities under the Term Contract, at any time, when it is in the best interest of the State of Florida to do so. The Department will provide the Contractor written notice outlining the particulars of the suspension. After receiving a suspension notice, the Contractor must comply with the notice and will cease the performance of the Term Contract. Suspension of work will not entitle the Contractor to any compensation for services not performed or commodities not delivered during the suspension period nor for any additional compensation.

Termination for Convenience. The Term Contract may be terminated by the Department, by written notice to the Contractor thirty (30) calendar days in advance, in whole or in part at any time, when the Department determines in its sole discretion that it is in the Department’s interest to do so. The Contractor shall not furnish any Product after it receives the notice of termination, except as necessary to complete

the continued portion of the Term Contract, or a continued purchase off the Term Contract, if any. The Contractor will not be entitled to recover any cancellation charges or lost profits. If the Term Contract is terminated before performance is completed, the Contractor will be paid only for that work satisfactorily performed for which costs can be substantiated. Such payment, however, may not exceed an amount which is the same percentage of any Customer contract price as the amount of work satisfactorily performed. All work in progress will become the property of the Customer and will be turned over promptly by the Contractor.
Termination for Cause. The Department may terminate the Term Contract if the Contractor fails to (i) on multiple occasions, timely deliver Products purchased by Customers, (ii) on multiple occasions, maintain adequate progress on Customer purchases, thus endangering performance, (iii) honor any term of the Term Contract, or (iv) abide by any statutory, regulatory, or licensing requirement. The Department may, at its sole discretion, (i) immediately terminate the Term Contract, (ii) notify the Contractor of the deficiency and require that the deficiency be corrected within a specified time, otherwise the Term Contract will terminate at the end of such time, or (iii) take other action deemed appropriate by the Department. The Contractor shall continue work on any work not terminated.
Except for defaults of subcontractors at any tier, the Contractor will not be liable for any excess costs if the failure to perform arises from events completely beyond the control, and without the fault or negligence, of the Contractor. If the failure to perform is caused by the default of a subcontractor at any tier, and if the cause of the default is completely beyond the control of both the Contractor and the subcontractor, and without the fault or negligence of either, the Contractor will not be liable for any excess costs for failure to perform, unless the subcontracted Products were obtainable from other sources in sufficient time for the Contractor to meet the required delivery schedule. If, after termination, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, or that the default was excusable, the rights and obligations of the parties will be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Department. The rights and remedies of the Department in this clause are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under the Term Contract. The Customer will notify the Department of any vendor that has met the grounds for placement of the vendor on the Department of Management Services’ Suspended Vendor List, as required in section 287.1351, F.S.

Termination for Non-Compliance with E-Verify. Pursuant to section 448.095(5)(c)1., F.S., the Department shall terminate the Term Contract if it has a good faith belief that the Contractor has knowingly violated section 448.09(1), F.S. Pursuant to section 448.095(5)(c)2., F.S., if the Department has a good faith belief that a subcontractor knowingly violated section 448.09(1), F.S., the Department shall promptly notify the Contractor and order the Contractor to immediately terminate the contract with the subcontractor.

Termination Related to Statutory Certifications. At the Department’s option, the Term Contract may be terminated if the Contractor is placed on any of the lists referenced in the attached PUR 7801, Vendor Certification Form, or would otherwise be prohibited from entering into or renewing the Term Contract based on the statutory provisions referenced therein.

Termination for Refusing Access to Public Records. In accordance with section 287.058, F.S., the Department may unilaterally terminate the Term Contract for refusal by the Contractor to allow public access to all documents, papers, letters, or other material made or received by the Contractor in conjunction with the Term Contract, unless the records are exempt from s. 24(a) of Art. I of the State Constitution and section 119.071(1), F.S.

SECTION 5. PURCHASES OFF THE TERM CONTRACT.
Purchases. By executing the Term Contract, the Contractor agrees to allow Customers to make purchases off the Term Contract. Purchases from Customers other than the Department are independent of the agreement between the Department and the Contractor, and the Department shall not be a party to such transaction. Customers’ purchases off the Term Contract are limited to Products offered under the Term Contract, and no additional Products may be provided under a purchase off the Term Contract.

Purchase Submission. For any purchases off the Term Contract, either the contract (as defined in Rule 60A-1.001, F.A.C.) must be executed between the Customer and Contractor, or the purchase order (as defined in Rule 60A-1.001, F.A.C.) must be issued by the Customer to the Contractor, no later than the last day of the Term Contract’s term to be considered timely. Contracts executed, or purchase orders issued, after the last day of the Term Contract’s term shall be considered void.

Terms. The terms of the Form PUR 1000, General Contract Conditions, incorporated in Rule 60A-1.002, F.A.C., and linked here http://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-16731, are hereby incorporated by reference herein and will apply to all purchases made by a Customer off the Term Contract. The Customer may attach additional terms and conditions specific to its particular purchase made off the Term Contract, which are considered Special Conditions. The term “Special Conditions” does not include any Contractor-provided documents, including attachments or standard preprinted forms, service agreements, end user agreements, product literature, or “shrink wrap” terms accompanying or affixed to a Product, whether written or electronic, or terms incorporated onto the Contractor’s order or fiscal forms or other documents forwarded by the Contractor for payment. Any Customer Special Conditions shall not become a part of the Term Contract.
Term. The term of the Customer purchase off the Term Contract will be as specified in the purchase, except that if renewals of the purchase are permitted, the Customer and Contractor shall not renew the purchase if the Term Contract expires prior to the effective date of the renewal. Any existing term of a purchase off the Term Contract shall not extend more than forty-eight (48) months beyond the end of the Term Contract. However, if an extended pricing plan offered in the Term Contract is agreed upon by the Customer and Contractor and extends more than forty-eight (48) months beyond the end of the Term Contract, the agreed upon extended pricing plan terms shall govern the maximum duration of the purchase. The Contractor is required to fulfill timely purchases that extend performance beyond the Term Contract term even when such extended delivery will occur after expiration of the Term Contract. For such purchases, all terms and conditions of the Term Contract shall survive the termination or expiration of the Term Contract and apply to the Contractor’s continued performance.

Additional Requirements. All Customer purchases off the Term Contract shall contain the Term Contract name and number and shall be placed by the Customer. Delivery or furnishing Products shall not occur until the Customer executes their contract or transmits the purchase order, as defined in Rule 60A-1.001, F.A.C.

SECTION 6. PAYMENT AND FEES.

Pricing. The Contractor shall not exceed the pricing set forth in the Term Contract documents.
Best Pricing Offer. During the term of the Term Contract, if the Department or Customer becomes aware of better pricing offered by the Contractor for substantially the same or a smaller quantity of a Product outside the Term Contract, but upon the same or similar terms of the Term Contract, then the Department or Customer may request that the Contractor immediately reduce to the lower price.
Price Decreases. The following price decrease terms will apply to the Term Contract:

Quantity Discounts. The Contractor may offer additional discounts for one-time delivery of large single orders. The Customer should seek to negotiate additional price concessions on quantity purchases of any Products offered under the Term Contract.

Sales Promotions. In addition to decreasing prices for the balance of the Term Contract term due to a change in market conditions, the Contractor may conduct sales promotions involving price reductions for a specified lesser period. If conducting a sales promotion, the Contractor must submit documentation to the Department’s Contract Manager identifying the proposed: (1) starting and ending dates of the promotion, (2) Products involved, and (3) promotional prices compared to then-authorized prices. The Contractor shall provide notice to Customers of the promotion and shall make the promotional prices available to all Customers.

Equitable Adjustment. The Department may, in its sole discretion, make an equitable adjustment in the Term Contract terms or pricing if pricing or availability of supply is affected by extreme and unforeseen volatility in the marketplace, that is, by circumstances that satisfy all the following criteria: (1) the volatility is due to causes wholly beyond the Contractor’s control, (2) the volatility affects the marketplace or industry, not just the particular Term Contract source of supply, (3) the effect on pricing or availability of supply is substantial, and (4) the volatility so affects the Contractor that continued performance of the Term Contract would result in a substantial loss.

Purchase Prerequisites. The Contractor may be required to accept the State of Florida Purchasing Card and MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) purchase orders. The Contractor shall not charge any fees for payments received via the State’s P-Card. The Contractor must ensure that entities receiving payment directly from Customers under this Term Contract must have met the following requirements:
Have an active registration with the Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations (www.sunbiz.org), or, if exempt from the registration requirements, provide the Department with the basis for such exemption.
Be registered in the MFMP Vendor Information Portal (https://vendor. myfloridamarketplace.com).
Have a current W-9 filed with the Florida Department of Financial Services (https://flvendor.myfloridacfo.com)

Transaction Fees. The State of Florida, through the Department of Management Services, has instituted MyFloridaMarketPlace, a statewide eProcurement system pursuant to section 287.057(24), Florida Statutes (F.S.). All payments issued by Agencies to registered vendors for purchases of Commodities or Contractual Services under Chapter 287, F.S., shall be assessed the Transaction Fee of one percent (1.0%) of the total amount of the payments received from the State or Eligible Users, as prescribed by Rule 60A-1.031, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), or as may otherwise be established by law. Vendors shall pay the Transaction Fee and are subject to automatic deduction of the Transaction Fee, when automatic deduction becomes available. Vendors shall submit any monthly reports required pursuant to Rule 60A-1.031, F.A.C. All such reports and payments are subject to audit. The Agency will have grounds for declaring the vendor in default if the vendor fails to comply with the payment of the Transaction Fee or reporting of payments, which may subject the vendor to being suspended from business with the State of Florida.
Exclusivity. The Term Contract is not an exclusive license to provide the Products described in the Term Contract. The Department may, without limitation and without recourse by the Contractor, contract with other vendors to provide the same or similar Products.
SECTION 7. PERFORMANCE

Warranty of Ability to Perform. Upon the effective date of the Term Contract, and each year on the anniversary date of the Term Contract, the Contractor shall submit to the Department a completed PUR 7801, Vendor Certification Form. The Contractor warrants that, to the best of its knowledge, there is no pending or threatened action, proceeding, or investigation, or any other legal or financial condition, that would in any way prohibit, restrain, or diminish the Contractor’s ability to satisfy its Term Contract obligations.
Additionally, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Department in writing if its ability to perform is compromised in any manner during the term of the Term Contract (including potential inability to renew the Term Contract due to section 287.138 or 908.111, F.S.) or if it or its suppliers, subcontractors, or consultants under the Term Contract are placed on the Suspended Vendor, Convicted Vendor, Discriminatory Vendor, Forced Labor Vendor, or Antitrust Violator Vendor Lists. The Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize any delays in performance and shall inform the Department of the steps the Contractor is taking or will take to do so, and the projected actual completion (or delivery) time. If the Contractor believes a delay in performance by the Department has caused or will cause the Contractor to be unable to perform its obligations on time, the Contractor shall promptly so notify the Department and use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations on time notwithstanding the Department’s delay.

Further Assurances. The parties shall, with reasonable diligence, do all things and provide all reasonable assurances as may be necessary to complete the requirements of the Term Contact, and each party shall provide such further documents or instruments requested by the other party as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to give effect to the Term Contract and to carry out its provisions. The Department is entitled at all times, upon request, to be advised as to the status of work being done by the Contractor and the details thereof.

Assignment. The Contractor shall not sell, assign or transfer any of its rights, duties or obligations under the Term Contract without the prior written consent of the Department. In the event of any assignment, the Contractor remains secondarily liable for performance of the Term Contract, unless the Department expressly waives such secondary liability. The Department may assign the Term Contract with prior written notice to Contractor of its intent to do so.

Employees, Subcontractors, and Agents.
Subcontractors. The Contractor will not subcontract any work under the Term Contract without prior written consent of the Department. The Contractor shall obtain prior written consent using the process identified on the Department’s website: Subcontractor/Dealer/Reseller Forms / Vendor Resources / State Purchasing / Business Operations - Florida Department of Management Services (myflorida.com). The use of the term “subcontractor” may refer to affiliates, resellers, dealers, distributors, partners, teammates, and all other third parties utilized by the Contractor at any tier under the Term Contract. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that its subcontractors providing commodities and performing services in furtherance of the Term Contract do so in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Term Contract. By execution of the Term Contract, the Contractor acknowledges that it will not be released of its contractual obligations to Customers because of any failure of a subcontractor. The Contractor is fully responsible for satisfactory completion of all work performed under the Term Contract. The Contractor’s use of a subcontractor not approved by the Department will be considered a material breach of the Term Contract.

Independent Contractor. The Contractor and its employees, agents, representatives, and subcontractors are not employees or agents of the Department or the State and are not entitled to the benefits of Department or State employees. Neither the Customer nor the State will be bound by any acts or conduct of the Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents. The Contractor shall include this provision in all of its subcontracts under the Term Contract.

Force Majeure, Notice of Delay, and No Damages for Delay. The Contractor will not be responsible for delay resulting from its failure to perform if neither the fault nor the negligence of the Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents contributed to the delay and the delay is due directly to acts of God, wars, acts of public enemies, lightning strikes, fires, floods, or other similar cause wholly beyond the Contractor’s control, or for any of the foregoing that affect suppliers if no alternate source of supply is available to the Contractor.

In case of any delay the Contractor believes is excusable, the Contractor shall notify the Department in writing of the delay or potential delay and describe the cause of the delay either (i) within ten (10) calendar days after the cause that creates or will create the delay first arose, if the Contractor could reasonably foresee that a delay could occur as a result; or (ii) if a delay is not reasonably foreseeable, within five (5) calendar days after the date the Contractor first had reason to believe that a delay could result. THE FOREGOING WILL CONSTITUTE THE CONTRACTOR’S SOLE REMEDY OR EXCUSE WITH RESPECT TO
ANY DELAY except if such delay is caused by the fraud, bad faith, or active interference of the Department. Providing notice in strict accordance with this paragraph is a condition precedent to such remedy, and a rebuttable presumption of prejudice will exist based on

Contractor’s untimely notice. The Contractor shall not assert any claim for damages related to such delay. The Contractor will not be entitled to an increase in the Term Contract price or payment of any kind from the Department for direct, indirect, consequential, impact, or other costs, expenses, or damages, including costs of acceleration or inefficiency, arising because of delay, disruption, interference, or hindrance from any cause whatsoever.

If performance is suspended or delayed, in whole or in part, due to any of the causes described in this subsection, the Department may unilaterally (and with no recourse on the part of the Contractor) identify and use an alternate source to complete any work under the Term Contract as the Department deems necessary, in its sole discretion. After the causes have ceased to exist, the Contractor shall perform at no increased cost, unless the Department determines, in its sole discretion, that the delay will significantly impair the value of the Contract to the Department or State, in which case the Department may (i) accept allocated performance or deliveries from the Contractor, provided that the Contractor grants preferential treatment to the Department with respect to Products subjected to allocation; or (ii) terminate the Term Contract in whole or in part.

SECTION 10. DISPUTES AND LIABILITIES.
Dispute Resolution. Should any disputes arise between the Department and the Contractor with respect to the Term Contract, the Contractor and the Department shall act immediately to resolve any such disputes. Time is of the essence in the resolution of disputes.
Exhaustion of this administrative remedy detailed in the Dispute Resolution Process contemplated in this Term Contract is an absolute condition precedent to the Contractor's ability to seek other remedies related to the Term Contract.

Dispute Resolution Process.
Department Review. The parties shall resolve disputes through written submission of their dispute to the Department’s Contract Manager. The Department shall respond to the dispute in writing within ten (10) Business Days from the date that the Department’s Contract Manager receives the dispute. The Department’s decision shall be final unless a party provides the other party with written notice of the party’s disagreement with the decision within ten (10) Business Days from the date of the Department’s decision. If a party disagrees with the Department’s decision, the party may proceed to subsection (b) below.
Meeting between the Principals. If either party disagrees with the Department’s decision, such disagreeing party shall notify the other party of the disagreement within ten (10) Business Days. The parties shall then schedule a meeting between each party’s principal (for the Department, the Department head or designee; for the Contractor, the Chief Executive Officer or designee) on a mutually agreed upon date, no later than ten (10)

Business Days after the provision of the notice. The principals shall attempt to mutually resolve the disagreement at such meeting.
Mediation. If the dispute is not resolved through a meeting of the Principals, the parties, upon mutual agreement, may mediate such dispute. If such mediation is not completed within 100 calendar days from receipt of the Department’s decision, then either party may seek other remedies.

If the dispute is not resolved through the full process in subsections (a) - (c) above (or
– (b), if mediation is not agreed to), either party may pursue any other remedies.

Contractor’s Obligation to Perform While Disputes are Pending. The Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance under the Term Contract pending the final resolution of any dispute or request for relief, claim, appeal, or action arising under the Term Contract and shall comply with directions to perform from the Department. Should the Contractor not perform while a dispute is pending, including by not performing disputed work, such nonperformance by the Contractor may be deemed to be an unexcused breach of the Term Contract which is separate and apart from any other dispute.
Governing Law and Venue. The Term Contract will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State. Jurisdiction and venue for suit arising under the terms of the Term Contract will exclusively be in the appropriate State court located in Leon County, Florida. Except as otherwise provided by law, the parties agree to be responsible for their own attorney’s fees and costs incurred in connection with disputes arising under the terms of the Term Contract.

Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to either party is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy will be cumulative, and will be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

JURY WAIVER. THE PARTIES, ON BEHALF OF THEMSELVES AND ASSIGNS, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FOR ANY ACTION, APPEAL, CLAIM, OR PROCEEDING, WHETHER IN LAW IN OR IN EQUITY, WHICH IN ANY WAY ARISES OUT OF OR RELATES TO THE TERM CONTRACT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER.
Indemnification. For any and all third-party claims, actions, demands, liabilities, and expenses of any kind which are caused by, related to, growing out of or happening in connection with the Term Contract (including any determination arising out of or related to the Term Contract that the Contractor or its employees, agents, subcontractors, assignees, or delegates are not independent contractors in relation to the Department or State), the Contractor shall be fully liable for the actions of its employees, subcontractors, and agents and shall fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Department and the State (including each of their current and former officers, agents, and employees) for any and all loss, damage, injury, costs, reasonable expenses, or other casualty to person or property. Without limiting this indemnification requirement, the Department may provide the Contractor (i) written notice of any action or threatened action, (ii) the opportunity to take over and settle or defend any such action at the Contractor’s sole expense, and (iii) assistance in defending the action at the Contractor’s sole expense. The above indemnity requirement does not apply to that portion of any loss or damages proximately caused by the negligent act or omission of the Department or the State. Nothing herein is intended to act as a waiver of the Department’s or State’s sovereign immunity or to be deemed consent by the Department or State or its

subdivisions to suit by third parties.
SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS.

Department of State Registration. Consistent with Title XXXVI, F.S., if the Contractor asserts status other than that of a sole proprietor, it must provide the Department with i) conclusive evidence of a certificate of status, not subject to qualification, if a Florida business entity; ii) a certificate of authorization if a foreign business entity; or iii) if exempt from the registration requirements, a basis for such exemption.

Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence regarding every obligation of the Contractor under the Term Contract. Each obligation is deemed material, and a breach of any such obligation (including a breach resulting from untimely performance) is a material breach.

Cooperative Purchasing. Pursuant to their own governing laws, and subject to the agreement of the Contractor, governmental entities that are not Customers may make purchases under the terms and conditions contained herein, if agreed to by the Contractor. Such purchases are independent of the Term Contract between the Department and the Contractor, and the Department is not a party to these transactions.
SECTION 12. PUBLIC RECORDS, TRADE SECRETS, DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT, AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

General Record Management and Retention. The Contractor shall retain all records that were made in relation to the Term Contract for the longer of five (5) years after expiration of the Term Contract or the period required by the General Records Schedules maintained by the Florida Department of State available at: https://dos.fl.gov/library-archives/records-management/general-records-schedules/.

Identification and Protection of Confidential Information. Article 1, section 24, of the Florida Constitution, guarantees every person access to public records, and section 119.011, F.S., provides a broad definition of “public record.” As such, records submitted to the Department (or any other State agency) are public records and are subject to disclosure unless exempt from disclosure by law. If the Contractor considers any portion of a record it provides to the Department (or any other State agency) to be trade secret or otherwise confidential or exempt from disclosure under Florida or federal law (“Confidential Information”), the Contractor shall mark as “confidential” each page of a document or specific portion of a document containing Confidential Information and simultaneously provide the Department (or other State agency) with a separate, redacted copy of the record. The Contractor shall state the basis of the exemption that the Contractor contends is applicable to each portion of the record redacted, including the specific statutory citation for such exemption. The Contractor shall only redact portions of records that it claims contains Confidential Information. If the Contractor fails to mark a record it claims contains Confidential Information as “confidential,” or fails to submit a redacted copy in accordance with this section of a record it claims contains Confidential Information, the Department (or other State agency) shall have no liability for release of such record. The foregoing will apply to every instance in which the Contractor fails to both mark a record “confidential” and redact it in accordance with this section, regardless of whether the Contractor may have properly marked and redacted the same or similar Confidential Information in another instance or record submitted to the Department (or any other State agency).

In the event of a public records request, to which records the Contractor marked as “confidential” are responsive to the request, the Department shall provide the Contractor-redacted copy to the requestor. If the Contractor has marked a record as “confidential” but failed to provide a Contractor-redacted copy to the Department, the Customer may notify the Contractor of the request and the Contractor may have up to ten (10) Business Days from the date of the notice to provide a Contractor-redacted copy, or else the Department may release the unredacted record to the requestor without liability. If the Department provides a Contractor- redacted copy of the documents and the requestor asserts a right to the Contractor-redacted Confidential Information, the Department shall promptly notify the Contractor such an assertion has been made. The notice will provide that if the Contractor seeks to protect the Contractor-redacted Confidential Information from release it must, within thirty (30) days after the date of the notice and at its own expense, file a cause of action seeking a declaratory judgment that the information in question is exempt from section 119.07(1), F.S., or other applicable law and an order prohibiting the Department from publicly disclosing the information. The Contractor shall provide written notice to the Department of any cause of action filed. If the Contractor fails to file a cause of action within thirty (30) days the Department may release the unredacted copy of the record to the requestor without liability.

If the Department is requested or compelled in any legal proceeding to disclose documents that are marked as “confidential” (whether by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, or similar process), unless otherwise prohibited by law, the Department shall give the Contractor prompt written notice of the demand or request prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to allow the Contractor to seek a protective order or other appropriate relief at the Contractor’s sole discretion and expense. If the Contractor fails to take appropriate and timely action to protect the Confidential Information contained within documents it has marked as “confidential” or fails to provide a redacted copy that may be disclosed, the Department may provide the unredacted records in response to the demand without liability.

The Contractor shall protect, defend, and indemnify the Department for all claims, costs, fines, settlement fees, and attorneys’ fees, at both the trial and appellate levels, arising from or relating to the Contractor’s determination that its records contain Confidential Information. In the event of a third-party claim brought against the Department for failure to release the Contractor’s redacted Confidential Information, the Contractor shall assume, at its sole expense, the defense or settlement of such claim, including attorney’s fees and costs at both the trial and appellate levels. If the Contractor fails to continuously undertake the defense or settlement of such claim or if the Contractor and Department mutually agree that the Department is best suited to undertake the defense or settlement, the Department will have the right, but not the obligation, to undertake the defense or settlement of such claim, at its discretion. The Contractor shall be bound by any defense or settlement the Department may make as to such claim, and the Contractor agrees to reimburse the Department for the expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs at both the trial and appellate levels associated with any defense or settlement that the Department may undertake to defend Contractor’s Confidential Information. The Department will also be entitled to join the Contractor in any third-party claim for the purpose of enforcing any right of indemnity under this section.

If at any point the Department is reasonably advised by its counsel that disclosure of the

Confidential Information is required by law, including but not limited to Florida’s public records laws, the Department may disclose such Confidential Information without liability hereunder.
Public Records Requirements Pursuant to Section 119.0701, F.S. Solely for the purpose of this section, the Department’s Contract Manager is the agency custodian of public records. If, under the Term Contract, the Contractor is providing services and is acting on behalf of the public agency, as provided in section 119.0701, F.S., the Contractor shall:

Keep and maintain public records required by the Department to perform the service.

Upon request from the Department’s custodian of public records, provide the Department with a copy of the requested records or allow the records to be inspected or copied within a reasonable time at a cost that does not exceed the cost provided in Chapter 119, F.S., or as otherwise provided by law.

Ensure that public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure are not disclosed except as authorized by law for the duration of the Term Contract term and following the completion of the Term Contract if the Contractor does not transfer the records to the Department.

Upon completion of the Term Contract, transfer, at no cost, to the Department all public records in possession of the Contractor or keep and maintain public records required by the Department to perform the service. If the Contractor transfers all public records to the Department upon completion of the contract, the Contractor shall destroy any duplicate public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements. If the Contractor keeps and maintains public records upon completion of the Term Contract, the Contractor shall meet all applicable requirements for retaining public records. All records stored electronically must be provided to the Department, upon request from the Department’s custodian of public records, in a format that is compatible with the information technology systems of the Department.

IF THE CONTRACTOR HAS QUESTIONS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF CHAPTER 119, FLORIDA STATUTES, TO THE CONTRACTOR’S DUTY TO PROVIDE PUBLIC RECORDS RELATING TO THIS TERM CONTRACT, CONTACT THE DEPARTMENT’S CUSTODIAN OF PUBLIC RECORDS AT PUBLICRECORDS@DMS.FL.GOV, (850) 487-1082 OR 4050 ESPLANADE WAY,

Contractor must inform the Customer and the Department of any inventions or discoveries developed or made through performance of the Customer’s contract, and such inventions or discoveries will be referred to the Florida Department of State for a determination on whether patent protection will be sought. The State of Florida will be the sole owner of all patents resulting from any invention or discovery made through performance of the Customer’s contract. This shall not apply to any invention or discovery made prior to the execution of the Term Contract.
Copyrightable Works. Contractor must notify the Customer and the Department of any publications, artwork, or other copyrightable works developed in connection with the Customer’s contract. All copyrights created or developed through performance of the Customer’s contract are owned solely by the State of Florida. This shall not apply to any copyrightable works created or developed prior to the execution of the Term Contract.
SECTION 13. DATA SECURITY.
The Contractor will maintain the security of State of Florida data including, but not limited to, maintaining a secure area around any displayed visible data and ensuring data is stored and secured when not in use. “State of Florida data” means data collected by, transmitted from, created for, or provided by the Department or the Customer. The Contractor will not allow any State of Florida data to be sent by any medium, transmitted, or accessed outside the United States due to Contractor’s action or inaction. In the event of a Security Incident involving State of Florida data, the Contractor shall give notice to the Customer and the Department within one business day of becoming aware of the Security Incident. “Security Incident” for purposes of this section will refer to an actual or imminent threat of a violation of information technology resources, security, policies, or practices, unauthorized access of State of Florida data, or occurrences that compromise the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of State of Florida data. An imminent threat refers to a situation in which the Contractor has a factual basis for believing that a specific incident is about to occur. Once a data breach has been contained, the Contractor must provide the Department and the Customer with a post-incident report documenting all containment, eradication, and recovery measures taken. The Department reserves the right in its sole discretion to enlist a third party to audit Contractor’s findings and produce an independent report, and the Contractor will fully cooperate with the third party. The Contractor will also comply with all HIPAA requirements and any other current state and federal rules and regulations regarding security of information.

All work must meet or exceed the State of Florida Department of Transportation Applicable Standards including the Florida Building Code and City of Boynton Beach Standards.

The supervision of the execution of this Contract is vested wholly in the Project Manager or his representative, and the orders of the City Commission and/or Utilities Director are to be given through him. The instructions of the Project Manager or his representative are to be strictly and promptly followed in every case. The Vendor may designate a foreman or other representative to receive such instructions in his absence, and failing to do so, he will be held responsible for the execution of any instructions it may be necessary to give in his absence. The Project Manager or his representative is to have free access to the materials and the work at all times for laying out, measuring, inspecting, or oversight of the same, and the Vendor is to afford him all necessary facilities and assistance for so doing.
To prevent all disputes and litigation, it is agreed by the parties hereto that the Utilities Director or City representative shall decide all questions, difficulties, and disputes of any nature which may arise relative to the interpretation of the specifications, construction, prosecution and fulfillment of the contract and task orders, and as to the character, quality, amount and value of any work done and materials furnished under or by reason of the Contract, and his estimates and decisions upon all claims, questions, and disputes shall be final and conclusive upon the parties hereto.

Time is an essential element of the contract and as delay in the execution of work will inconvenience and possibly endanger the public, obstruct traffic, and interfere with business, it is important that once work commences at any site, it be carried through to completion without delays or suspension of operations unless deemed to be necessary by the Project Manager or Inspector.
In the event any delays or suspension of operations occur, the City reserves the right to hire off-duty police, erect barricades, or take whatever actions are necessary to provide for the safety of the site. All costs involved in doing so shall be just claims against the Vendor or the Vendor’s Performance and Payment Bond. By submitting a bid, the Vendor agrees to the conditions as stated above.

It is expressly understood that the Vendor is in all respects an independent Vendor for this work, notwithstanding that under certain conditions, he is bound to follow the directions of the Utilities Project Manager or his representative, and is in no respect and agent, servant or employee of the City.

Any performance or non-performance issues noted by the Project Manager or their representative(s) will be brought to the attention of the Vendor through the use of the Performance Evaluation Form, see Attachment ‘C’. The Project Manager or their representative(s) will conduct annual performance evaluations based on areas serviced under this contract/agreement.

RESTORATION OF PROPERTY: Property, public or private, if damaged during construction or removed for the convenience of the work shall be repaired or replaced at the expense of the Vendor in a manner acceptable to the Utilities Project Manager, prior to the final acceptance of the work. Such facilities shall include but are not limited to: signalization equipment and miscellaneous hardware removed from the construction site, driveways, walkways, walls, fences, mailboxes, sod, landscaping, irrigation systems, footings, or underground utilities.

DELAYS:

If the Vendor should be delayed in the progress of the work included in the Contract by unforeseeable causes beyond his control, the time for completion of the work may be extended by the Utilities Project Manager or his representative. Requests for extensions of time must be submitted in writing to the Utilities Project Manager or his representative within seven (7) days from the Vendor’s knowledge of a delay. Vendor shall not receive any compensation for additional time required to complete the work as a result of any delay.

The Vendor shall assume all risks resulting from delays except that should the City, by act or omission, intentionally and without reason, cause delays which result in actual loss to the Vendor. Reimbursement thereof may be adjusted and allowed by the City only after being notified in writing by the Vendor at the time of the delay and after being given an opportunity to verify such money losses as they occur. No payment or adjustment will be allowed to the Vendor as reimbursement for any other delays whatsoever; regardless of by what or by whom caused, even though by other Vendors on the same work, or by times, seasons, or weather; other than amounts provided in the Contract for payment which shall be understood to include and cover all risks due to delays except as stated in the foregoing.

If the Vendor fails to start the work within the time specified, and if the City should nevertheless permit the Vendor to continue and complete the same without official extension of time in writing, such permission shall not modify nor waive any liability of the Vendor for damages arising from non-completion of work within the time limit, but all such liabilities shall be subject to continuation in full force against the Vendor.

Liability of the Vendor will include any claim by any person for bodily or property damage after the Notice to Proceed was given for the requested work.
MATERIALS:

The Vendor shall provide the services of all workmen, mechanics, tradesmen, and other employees trained and skilled in their various occupations and all materials and equipment. The request for work to be performed will require the Vendor to supply all labor, equipment, materials and work incidental to, or described or implied as incidental to, the construction included under this Contract, notwithstanding any omission in the drawings or specifications.

Wherever not explicitly described, materials and workmanship of every kind shall be in keeping with industry standards. The Vendor shall perform his work in proper sequence to the work or other Vendors and to acts or operations of the City, and shall properly join his work to existing or new construction.

surplus, and discarded materials and temporary structures.

There shall be no additional cost to the CITY for CONTRACTOR’s failure to verify such dimensions and locations, or for inaccurate verifications by CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR shall bear the full cost of any modifications to the Work which result from subsurface conditions which result from subsurface conditions which could have been reasonably been discovered prior to commencement of the Work or a portion of the work.

PHYSICAL CONDITIONS – UNDERGROUND FACILITIES:
Indicated: The information and data indicated in the Contract Documents with respect to existing Underground Utilities at or contiguous to the Site is based on information and data furnished to the CITY or CONSULTANT by the owners of such Underground Facilities or by others.
The CITY and CONSULTANT shall not be responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any such information or data, and
The CONTRACTOR shall notify the Underground Service Alert (USA) System, Phone No. 1-800-227-2600 and Sunshine State One Call Services (1-800-432-4770) at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the commencement of Work at any site to allow the member of utilities to examine the construction site and mark the location of the utilities’ respective facilities.
The CONTRACTOR acknowledges that some (or all) of the utility companies with facilities shown on the drawings may not be members of the USA System or Sunshine State One Call Services; and therefore, not automatically contacted by the above referenced telephone number. The CONTRACTOR will be responsible for making themselves aware of utility company facilities not reported by the USA System or Sunshine State One Call Services, and shall be liable for any and all damages stemming from repair or delay costs or any other expenses resulting from the unanticipated discovery of underground utilities. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for notifying all of the utilities at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the commencement of Work at any site to allow the utilities to examine the construction site and mark the location of the utilities’ respective facilities. The CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for verifying that each utility has responsibly responded to such notification.
CONTRACTOR shall have full responsibility for reviewing and checking all such information and data. Further, the

CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for locating all Underground Facilities whether or not shown or indicated in Contract Documents, for coordination of the Work with the owners of such Underground Facilities during construction, for the safety and protection thereof as provided in paragraph 6.10, and repairing any damage thereto resulting from Work, the cost of all of which shall be considered as having been included in the Contract Price.
All water pipes, sanitary sewers, storm drains, force mains, gas mains, or other pipes, telephone or power cables or conduits, pipe or conduit casings, curbs, sidewalks, service lines, and all other obstructions, whether or not shown, shall be temporarily removed from or supported across utility line excavations. Where it is necessary to temporarily interrupt services, the CONTRACTOR shall notify both the CITY and occupant of such facilities five (5) calendar days before the interruption and again immediately before service is resumed. Before disconnecting any pipes or cables, the CONTRACTOR shall obtain permission from the CITY or occupant, or shall make suitable arrangements for their disconnection by the CITY or occupant. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for all damages to any such pipes, conduits or cables, and shall restore them to service promptly, as part of the Work, as soon as the Work has progressed past the point involved. Approximate locations of known water, sanitary, drainage, natural gas, power, telephone and cable TV installations along the route of new pipelines or in the vicinity of new Work are shown, but are to be verified in the field by the CONTRACTOR prior to performing the Work. The CONTRACTOR shall uncover these pipes, ducts, cables, etc. carefully by hand prior to installing their work. Any discrepancies or differences found shall be immediately brought to the attention of the CONSULTANT in order that necessary changes may be made to permit installation of the Work.
Not Indicated: If an Underground Facility is uncovered or revealed at or contiguous to the Site which was not shown, nor located by the facilities owner and which CONTRACTOR could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of; CONTRACTOR shall promptly, after becoming aware of thereof and before performing any Work affected thereby (except in an emergency as permitted by paragraph 6.10), identify the owner of such Underground Facility and give written notice thereof to that owner, the CITY and CONSULTANT. The CONSULTANT shall promptly review the Underground Facility to determine the extent to which the Contract Documents should be modified to reflect and document the consequences of the existence of the Underground Facility. The Contract Documents shall be amended or supplemented to the extent necessary. During such time, CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the safety and protection of such Underground Facility as provided in paragraph 6.13.

DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS

The CONTRACTOR shall notify the CONSULTANT in writing, of the following unforeseen conditions, hereinafter called differing Site conditions, within twenty-four (24) hours upon their discovery (but in no event later than seven (7) days after their discovery) and before they are disturbed:
Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the Site of Work differing materially from those indicated, described, or delineated in the Contract Documents, including those reports discussed in paragraph 4.2 and 4.3 (Physical Conditions, Underground Facilities), and

Any unknown physical conditions at the Site of the Work of an unusual nature differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract Documents including those reports and documents discussed in paragraph 4.2 and 4.3

CONSULTANT shall promptly review the pertinent conditions, determine the necessity of obtaining additional explorations or tests with respect thereto, and advise the CITY in writing (with a copy to the CONTRACTOR) of CONSULTANT’s findings and conclusions.
If CONSULTANT concludes that because of newly discovered conditions a change in the Contract Documents is required, a Change Order shall be issued as provided in Article 10 (Changes in Work) to reflect and document the consequences of the difference.

In each such case, an increase or decrease in the Contract Price or an extension or shortening of the Contract Time, or any combination thereof, shall be allowable to the extent that they are attributable to any such inaccuracy or difference. No such change shall occur if the differing site conditions could reasonably have been discovered by CONTRACTOR prior to commencement of Work, or a portion of the Work, through the subsurface explorations described in Sections 4.2 and 4.3. If the CITY and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree as to the amount or length thereof, a claim may be made therefor as provided in Article 11 (Change of Contract Price) and Article 12 (Change of Contract Time).

The CONTRACTOR’s failure to give notice of differing Site conditions within twenty-four (24) hours or no later than seven (7) days of their discovery and before they are disturbed, shall constitute a waiver of all claims in connection therewith, whether direct or consequential in nature.
REFERENCE POINTS:

The CITY shall provide, if available, engineering surveys to establish reference points for construction, which in CONSULTANT’s judgment are necessary to enable CONTRACTOR to proceed with the Work.

CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for laying out the Work (unless otherwise specified in the General Requirements), shall protect and preserve the established reference points and shall make no changes or relocations without the prior written approval of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall report to the CONSULTANT whenever any reference point is lost or destroyed or requires relocation because of necessary changes in grades or locations, and shall be responsible for the accurate replacement or relocation of such reference points by professionally qualified personnel.

However, the CONTRACTOR shall submit to the CONSULTANT and the CITY’s Project Manager a list of proposed materials, equipment or products, together with such samples considered substitutes as may be necessary to determine their acceptability and obtain approval, pursuant to Section 32, Instruction to Bidders if prior to award, or after award, within ten (10) calendar days after the CONTRACTOR should have been aware of the need for substitution, unless otherwise stipulated in the Special Conditions. No request for payment for “or equal” equipment shall be approved until this list has been received and approved by the CONSULTANT. The CITY may require the CONTRACTOR to furnish at CONTRACTOR’s expense, a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute.
Whenever a material, article, or piece of equipment is identified on the Drawings or Specifications by reference to brand name or catalogue number, it shall be understood that this is referenced for the purpose of defining the performance or other salient requirements, and that other products of equal capacities, quality and function may be considered. The CONTRACTOR may request the substitution of a material, article, or piece of equipment of equal substance and function for those referred to in the Contract Documents by reference to brand name or catalogue number and if, the opinion of the CONSULTANT and CITY, such material, article, or piece of equipment is of equal substance and function to that specified, the CONSULTANT with concurrence of the CITY’s Project Manager may approve its substitution and use by the CONTRACTOR.
The application shall state that the evaluation and acceptance of the proposed substitute shall not prejudice CONTRACTOR’s achievement of Substantial Completion on time, whether or not acceptance of the substitute for use in the Work shall require a change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with the CITY for Work on the Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute and whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that specified shall be identified in the application and available maintenance, repair, and replacement service shall be indicated.

The application shall also contain itemized estimate of all costs and cost savings that shall result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs or redesign and claims of other contractors affected by CONSULTANT in evaluating the proposed substitute. CONSULTANT may require CONTRACTOR to furnish at CONTRACTOR’s expense, additional data about the proposed substitute.
Incidental changes or extra component parts required to accommodate the substitute shall be made by the CONTRACTOR without an increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time. The CONTRACTOR shall reimburse the CITY for charges of the CONSULTANT and CONSULTANT’S consultants for evaluating each proposed substitution. These costs shall include transportation, to operating installation at factories, etc.
No substitute shall be ordered or installed without the written approval of the CONSULTANT with the CITY’s Project Manager’s concurrence.
Delay caused by obtaining approvals for substitute materials or installations shall be attributable to CONTRACTOR and shall not be considered justifiable grounds for an extension of construction time.

All such work shall be done at the expense of the CONTRACTOR.
No materials or supplies for the Work shall be purchased by the CONTRACTOR or by any Sub-Contractor subject to any chattel mortgage or under conditional sale or other agreement by which an interest is retained by the Seller. The CONTRACTOR warrants that it has clear title to all materials and supplies used by them in the Work.
If a specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction is indicated in or required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, sequence, technique or procedure of construction, if applicable, to the CITY and CONSULTANT, if CONTRACTOR submits sufficient information to allow CITY and CONSULTANT to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that indicated or required by the Contract Documents. The procedure for review by the CITY and CONSULTANT shall be similar to that provided in paragraph 6.4.5.1 (Materials, Equipment, Products and Substitutions, par. 2) as applied by CONSULTANT and as may be supplemented in the Special Conditions.
Any two (2) or more pieces of material or equipment of the same kind, type or classification, and being used for identical types of service, shall be made by the same manufacturer.

The remedies contained herein are not exclusive and the CITY/OWNER reserves the right to pursue any and all other remedies it deems applicable.

ONE-YEAR CORRECTION PERIOD:

If within one (1) year after the date of Acceptance of Work or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by federal, state or local laws and regulations, or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents, or by any specific provision of the Contract Documents; any Work is found to be defective, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to the CITY and in accordance with the CITY’s written instructions, either correct such defective Work, or if it has been rejected by the CITY, remove it from the Site and replace it with non-defective Work.
If CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply with the terms of such instructions or incase of an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage; the CITY may have the defective Work corrected or the rejected Work removed and replaced, and all direct, indirect and consequential costs of such removal and replacement (including but not limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals) shall be paid by CONTRACTOR.

In special circumstances where a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service before Final Acceptance of all the Work, the correction period for that item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided in the Specifications.

Nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver of the statute of limitations as provided in Florida Law.
Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed or replaced under this Paragraph
13.7 – “One Year Correction Period”, the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work shall be extended for an additional period of one (1) year after such correction or removal and replacement has been satisfactorily completed.

ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK:
Instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, CITY (prior to CONSULTANT’s recommendation of final payment), if CONSULTANT prefers to accept defective Work CITY may accept defective Work. If CITY accepts defective Work pursuant to this Paragraph 13.8. CONTRACTOR shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to CITY’s evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by CONSULTANT as to reasonableness and to include but not limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals).

If any such acceptance of defective work occurs prior to CONSULTANT’s recommendation of final payment, a Change Order shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and the CITY shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, the CITY may make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11 – Change of Contract Price. If acceptance occurs after such recommendation, CONTRACTOR shall pay an appropriate amount to the CITY.
CITY MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK:

If CONTRACTOR fails within thirty (30) days after written notice of CONSULTANT to proceed to correct defective Work, or remove and replace rejected Work as required by CONSULTANT in accordance with paragraph 13.7.1, 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, the CITY may, after seven (7) days written notice to CONTRACTOR correct and remedy any such deficiency.

To the extent necessary to complete corrective and remedial action, the CITY may exclude CONTRACTOR from all or part of the Work, and suspend CONTRACTOR’s services related thereto, take possession of CONTRACTOR’s tools, appliances, construction equipment and machinery at the Site and incorporate in the Work, all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for which the CITY has paid CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow the CITY, the CONSULTANT, the CITY’s Representative agents and employees, such access to the Site as may be necessary to enable the CITY to exercise the rights and remedies under this Paragraph.
All direct, indirect and consequential costs of the CITY in exercising such rights and remedies under this Paragraph shall be charged against CONTRACTOR by CITY, and a Change Order shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work. The CITY shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, and if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, the CITY may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 11 – Change of Contract Price. Such direct, indirect and inconsequential costs shall include but not be limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals, all court costs, and all costs of repair and/or replacement of Work of others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or replacement of CONTRACTOR’s defective work. CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for restoring any other sites affected by such repairs or remedial work at no cost to the CITY. CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension of the Contract Time because of any delay in performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by the CITY of the CITY’s rights pursuant to Paragraph 13.9 of the General Conditions.
ARTICLE 14 – PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION:

The CONSULTANT may also refuse to recommend any such payment, or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment previously recommended, to such extent as may be necessary in CONSULTANT’s opinion to protect the CITY from loss, including but not limited to:
The Work is defective or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or replacement.
The Contract Price has been reduced by a Written Amendment or Change Order.
The CITY has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work pursuant to Paragraph 13.9, or

The CONSULTANT’s actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in Paragraphs 15.2.1 through
15.2.1.9 inclusive (CITY May Terminate).
The CITY may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by the CONSULTANT because claims have been made against the CITY on account of CONTRACTOR’s performance or furnishing of the Work, or there are other items entitling the CITY to credit against the amount recommended but the CITY must give CONTRACTOR written notice (with a copy to CONSULTANT) stating the reasons for such action. Reasons the CITY may refuse to make payment include but are not limited to:
The Work for which payment is requested cannot be verified by the CITY.

Claims or Liens have been filed against the CITY relating to the Project or there is reasonable evidence indicating the probable filing thereof.

Upon unsatisfactory obligation of the Work, including failure to clean up as required.

Upon CONTRACTOR’s persistent failure to cooperate with other contractors on the Project and persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
Upon liquidated damages payable by the CONTRACTOR, or

Upon any other violation of, or failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with, the provisions of the Contract Documents.

SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION:

When the CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, the CONTRACTOR shall notify the CITY and the CONSULTANT in writing that the Work is substantially complete and request that the CONSULTANT prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion.

The CITY, the CONSULTANT and the CONTRACTOR shall make an inspection of the Work within fifteen (15) calendar days after notice from the CONTRACTOR that the Work is substantially complete to determine the status of completion. If the CONSULTANT does not consider the Work substantially complete, the CONSULTANT shall notify the CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If the CONSULTANT considers the Work to be substantially complete, the CONSULTANT shall prepare and deliver to the CITY for its execution and recordation, the Certificate of Substantial Completion, signed by the CONSULTANT and CONTRACTOR, which shall affix the Date of Substantial Completion.

The CITY shall have the right to exclude CONTRACTOR from the Work after the date of Substantial Completion, but the CITY shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct items on the “punch list”, pursuant to Paragraph 14.12 of the General Conditions.
PARTIAL UTILIZATION:

The CITY shall have the right to enter the premises for the purpose of doing work not covered by the Contract Documents. This provision shall not be construed as relieving the CONTRACTOR of the sole responsibility for the care and protection of the Work, or the restoration of any damaged work except such as may be caused by agent or employees of the CITY.

Prior to Substantial Completion, the CITY, with the approval of the CONSULTANT and with written notice to the CONTRACTOR, may use any completed or substantially completed portion of the Work. Such use shall not constitute an acceptance of such portions of the Work.

Use by the CITY of any finished part of the Work, which has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or which the CITY, CONSULTANT, and CONTRACTOR agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by the CITY without significant interference with CONTRACTOR’s performance of the remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all Work subject to the following:
The CITY at any time may request CONTRACTOR in writing to permit the CITY to use any such part of the Work which the CITY believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If CONTRACTOR agrees, CONTRACTOR shall certify to the CITY and CONSULTANT that said part of the Work is substantially complete and request CONSULTANT to issue a Certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. CONTRACTOR at any time may notify the CITY and CONSULTANT in writing that CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and request CONSULTANT to issue a Certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Within fifteen
(15) days after either such request, the CITY, CONTRACTOR and CONSULTANT shall make an inspection of that part of Work to determine its status of completion. If CONSULTANT does not consider that part of the Work to be substantially complete, CONSULTANT shall notify the CITY and CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefore. If CONSULTANT considers that part of the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions of Paragraphs 14.6.1 and 14.6.2 shall 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.
The CITY may at any time, request CONTRACTOR in writing to permit the CITY to take over operation of any such part of the Work although it is not substantially complete. A copy of such request shall be sent to CONSULTANT and within fifteen
(15) days thereafter, the CITY, CONTRACTOR and CONSULTANT shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion and shall prepare a list of items remaining to be completed or corrected thereon before final payment. If CONTRACTOR does not object in writing to the CITY and CONSULTANT that such part of the Work is not ready for separate operation by the CITY; CONSULTANT shall finalize the list of items to be completed or corrected and shall deliver such list to the CITY and CONTRACTOR together with a written recommendation as to the division of responsibilities pending final judgment between the CITY and CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, utilities, insurance, warranties and guarantees for that part of the Work which shall become binding upon the CITY and CONTRACTOR at the time when the CITY takes over such operation (unless CONTRACTOR shall have otherwise agreed in writing and so informed CONSULTANT). During such operation and prior to Substantial Completion of such part of the Work, the CITY shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct items on such list and to complete other related Work.

FINAL INSPECTION:
Upon written notice from the CONTRACTOR that the entire Work or an agreed upon portion thereof is complete, CONSULTANT shall make a final inspection with the CITY and CONTRACTOR and shall notify CONTRACTOR in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete, defective, or not in accordance with the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as necessary to remedy such deficiencies.

FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT:

After CONTRACTOR has completed in writing all such corrections to the satisfaction of CONSULTANT and delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents (as provided in Paragraph 14.6, Substantial Completion) and other documents- all as required by the Contract Documents, and after CONSULTANT has indicated in writing that the Work is acceptable and has been completed in conformance with the drawings and specifications and any approved changes thereto, CONTRACTOR may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments. The final Application for Payment shall be accompanied by: (i) all documentation called for in the Contract Documents, including but not limited to the evidence of insurance required, (ii) consent of the surety, if any, to final payment, and (iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to CITY) of all Liens arising out of or filed in connection with the Work.

FINAL PAYMENT AND ACCEPTANCE:

Upon receipt of written notice from the CONTRACTOR that the Work has been completed in conformity with the Drawings and Specifications and any approved changes thereto, and receipt of the Final Application for Payment with the Warranty of Title and accompanying documentation; the CITY’s CONSULTANT shall promptly examine the Work and making such tests as he/she may deem proper, and using all of the care and judgment normally exercised in the examination of completed Work by a properly qualified and experienced professional Consultant, shall satisfy themselves that the CONTRACTOR’s statement appears to be correct and the CONTRACTOR’s other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled. The CONSULTANT shall then inform the CITY in writing that CONSULTANT have examined the Work and that it appears, to the best of the CONSULTANT’s knowledge and belief, to conform to the Contract Drawings, Specifications and any approved Change Orders that the CONTRACTOR’s other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled, and that CONSULTANT therefore recommend acceptance of the Work for ownership and Final Payment to the CONTRACTOR. However, it is agreed by the CITY and the CONTRACTOR that such statement by the CITY’s CONSULTANT does not in any way relieve the CONTRACTOR from their responsibility to deliver a fully completed job in a good and workmanlike condition, and does not render the CONSULTANT or the CITY liable for any faulty Work done or defective materials or equipment used by the CONTRACTOR.
The CONSULTANT shall then make a final estimate of the value of all Work done and shall deduct all previous payments which have been made. The CONSULTANT shall report such estimate to the CITY together with his/her recommendation as to the acceptance of the Work or his/her findings as to any deficiencies therein. After receipt and acceptance by the CITY of the properly executed Final Warranty of Title and after approval of the CONSULTANT’s estimate and recommendation to the CITY, the CITY shall make final payment to the CONTRACTOR of the amount remaining after deducting all prior payments and all amounts to be kept or retained under the provisions of the Contract Documents, or as may be lawfully retained, including but not limited to, Liquidated Damages, as applicable. Title passes and warranty begins at final acceptance.

All prior estimates are subject to correction in the final estimate. Thirty (30) days after approval by the CITY of the Application for Final Payment, the amount recommended by CONSULTANT shall become due and shall be paid to the CONTRACTOR.
WAIVER OF CLAIMS:
The making and acceptance of Final Payment shall constitute:
Waiver of all claims by CITY against CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from unsettled Liens from defective Work appearing after final inspection, pursuant to Paragraph 14.8, Final Inspection, from failure to comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees specified therein, or from CONTRACTOR’s continuing obligations under the Contract Documents or the Performance and Payment Bonds; and
Waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR against CITY other than those previously made in writing and still unsettled at the time of making an acceptance of Final Payment.
PUNCHLIST PROCEDURES:

As per Florida Statutes § 218.735(7)(a)(ii), punchlist procedures to render the Work complete, satisfactory and acceptable are established as follows:
Within fifteen (15) days of Substantial Completion of the construction services purchased as defined in the Contract, CONTRACTOR shall schedule a Substantial Completion Walkthrough with CITY and CONSULTANT. The purpose of the Substantial Completion Walkthrough is to develop a preliminary punchlist (“Punchlist”) of items to be performed by the CONTRACTOR, based upon observations made jointly between the CONTRACTOR, CONSULTANT and CITY during the Substantial Completion Walkthrough. Completion of the Work as defined by the Contract, again predicated upon the CONTRACTOR’s timely initiation of a request for the Substantial Completion Walkthrough. At its option, CITY may conduct Substantial Completion Walkthrough with its Field Inspector and CONSULTANT.
CONTRACTOR shall endeavor to address and complete as many items as possible noted on the Punchlist either during the Substantial Completion Walkthrough itself, or thereafter for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the Substantial Completion Walkthrough.

No later than thirty (30) days following the scheduled Substantial Completion Walkthrough, CONTRACTOR shall again initiate and request a second walkthrough of the Project with CITY. The purpose of this second walkthrough is to identify which items remain to be performed from the Substantial Completion Walkthrough Checklist and to supplement that list as necessary (based, for example, upon work which may have been damaged as a result of the CONTRACTOR’s performance of completion of items contained on the Substantial Completion Walkthrough Punchlist) and for the purpose of developing a joint Final Punchlist.
The intent of this section is for the CITY and the CONTRACTOR to cooperate to develop a Final Punchlist to be completed no later than thirty (30) days from the date of reaching Substantial Completion of the construction services or as defined in the Contract Documents.

In no event may the CONTRACTOR request payment of final retainage under Florida Statutes § 218.735(7)(d) until the CONTRACTOR considers the Final Punchlist to be 100% complete.
CONTRACTOR agrees to complete the Final Punchlist items within thirty (30) days of the date of its issuance by CITY.

CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that no item contained on the Final Punchlist shall be considered a warranty item until such time as the Final Punchlist is 100% complete.

CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that CITY may, at its option, during performance of the Work and prior to Substantial Completion, issue lists of identified non-conforming or corrective work for the CONTRACTOR to address. The intent of any such CITY generated lists prior to Substantial Completion is to attempt to streamline the Punchlist process upon achieving Substantial Completion, and to allow for the CONTRACTOR to address needed areas of corrective work as they may be observed by CITY during performance of the Work.

CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that in calculating 150% of the amount which may be withheld by CITY as to any Final Punchlist item for which a good faith basis exists as to it being complete, as provided for by Florida Statutes § 218.735(7)(d), CITY may include within such percentage calculation its total costs for completing such item of work, including its administrative costs as well as costs to address other services needed or areas of work which may be affected in order to achieve full completion of the Final Punchlist item. Such percentage shall in no event relate to the Schedule of Value associated with such work activity, but rather total costs are based upon the value (i.e. cost) of completing such work activity based upon market conditions at the time of Final Punchlist completion.
RETAINAGE PROCEDURES:

Pursuant to Florida Statutes § 218.735(8)(a). The CITY may withhold retainage of five (5%) percent of all monies earned by the CONTRACTOR and shall be retained by the CITY until Final Completion of the construction services purchased (defined as that point at which 100% of the constriction of the work as defined in the Contract Schedule of Values has been performed under the contract by the CONTRACTOR) has been reached and acceptance by the CITY as defined in Florida Statutes § 218.735(7)(d).

This section does not prohibit the CITY from withholding retainage at a rate less than five (5%) percent of each progress payment, from incrementally reducing the rate of retainage pursuant to a schedule provided for in the Contract, or from releasing at any point all or a portion of any retainage withheld by the CITY which is attributable to the labor, services, or materials supplied by the CONTRACTOR or by one or more subcontractors or suppliers. If the CITY makes any payment of retainage to the CONTRACTOR which is attributable to the labor, services, or materials supplies by one or more subcontractors or suppliers, the CONTRACTOR shall timely remit payment of such retainage to those subcontractors and suppliers.
This section does not require the CITY to pay or release any amounts that are subject of a good faith dispute, the subject of a claim brought pursuant to Florida Statutes § 255.05 or otherwise the subject of a claim or demand by the CITY or CONTRACTOR.

The time limitations set forth in this section for payment requests, apply to any payment request for retainage made pursuant to this section.
Paragraph 14.13.2 do not apply to construction services purchased by the CITY which are paid for, in whole or in part, with federal funds and are subject to federal grantor laws and regulations or requirements that are contrary to any provision of the Local Government Prompt Payment Act.

This subsection does not apply to any construction services purchased by the CITY if the total cost of the construction services as identified in the contract is $200,000 or less.

All payments dues under this section and not made within the time periods specified by this section shall bear interest at the rate of one (1%) percent per month, or the rate specified by contract, whichever is greater.
ARTICLE 15 – SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION:

CITY MAY SUSPEND/STOP WORK:

THE CITY MAY SUSPEND WORK: The CITY may, at any time and without cause, suspend the Work or any portion thereof for period of not more than ninety (90) days by notice in writing to CONTRACTOR and CONSULTANT which shall affix the date on which Work shall be resumed.

If CONTRACTOR claims an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Time, or both, directly attributable to any suspension, CONTRACTOR may make a claim as provided in Articles 11 (Change of Contract Price) and Article 12 (Change of Contract Time) of the General Conditions.

THE CITY MAY STOP WORK: The CITY or CITY’s Representative may stop the Work or any portion thereof when it has been determined that the CONTRACTOR is not complying with the Drawings or Specifications or the intent thereof.

In such cases, the CONTRACTOR shall only be entitled to receive payment for Work satisfactorily completed prior to the termination date, subject to any setoffs due the CITY in completing the Project and for reimbursement for damages incurred. The CITY may take possession of and use any materials, plant, tools, equipment, and property of any kind furnished by CONTRACTOR to complete the Work. In such case CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished. If the expense incurred by the CITY to finish the Work (including additional managerial and administrative services, plus the CITY’s direct, indirect and consequential losses), exceeds the unpaid balance on the Contract, the CONTRACTOR or Surety shall pay the difference to the CITY promptly upon demand. The expense incurred through the CONTRACTOR’s default, shall be certified by the CITY’s Project Manager. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for both liquidated damages attributable to delay and for excess completion costs. The liability of the CONTRACTOR and its surety or sureties for such damages and costs is joint and several. The obligations of the CONTRACTOR and their surety with respect to the warranty and maintenance shall remain in full force and effect for the portion of the Work completed by the CONTRACTOR and shall not expire until the expiration of the prescribed time period measured from the final acceptance of the Project in its entirety. These clauses shall survive the termination of this CONTRACT. If the CITY makes a determination pursuant to this Contract to hold the CONTRACTOR in default and terminate the Contract for cause and it is subsequently determined that any such determination was improper, unwarranted, or wrongful, then any such termination shall be deemed for all purposes as a termination without cause as described below. The CONTRACTOR agrees that it shall be entitled to no damages, allowances or expenses of any kind other than as provided in this Agreement in connection with such termination, any and all claims for consequential damages, loss of bonding capability, destruction of business, unabsorbed home office overhead, lost profit and related claims.
Where CONTRACTOR’s services have been terminated by the CITY, the termination shall not affect any rights or remedies of the CITY against CONTRACTOR then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of monies due CONTRACTOR by the CITY shall not release CONTRACTOR from liability.

CITY MAY TERMINATE WITHOUT CAUSE:

The CITY may terminate this Contract without cause by giving seven (7) days prior written notice to the CONTRACTOR, and in such event, the CITY shall pay the CONTRACTOR for that portion of the Contract Sum, less the aggregate of previous payments, allocable to the Work completed as of the Date of Termination, plus reasonable termination expenses. The CITY also shall reimburse the CONTRACTOR for all costs necessarily incurred for organizing and carrying out the stoppage of Work paid directly to the CONTRACTOR, not including overhead, general expenses or profit. The CITY shall not be responsible to reimburse the CONTRACTOR for any continuing contractual commitments to subcontractors or material men or for penalties or damages for canceling such contractual commitments, (with the exception that the CITY shall reimburse the CONTRACTOR for major materials or equipment purchased before termination, if the CONTRACTOR can show proof of such purchases prior to notice of termination) inasmuch as the CONTRACTOR shall make all subcontracts and other commitments subject to this provision. In the event of termination by the CITY, the CITY may require the CONTRACTOR promptly to assign to it, all or some subcontracts, construction, plants, materials tools, equipment, appliances, rental agreements, and other commitments which the CITY, in its sole discretion, chooses to take by assignment, and in such event the CONTRACTOR shall promptly execute and deliver to the CITY written assignments of the same.

Should the CONTRACTOR not remove such equipment and supplies, the CITY shall have the right to remove them at the expense of the CONTRACTOR. Equipment and supplies shall not be construed to include such items for which the CONTRACTOR has been paid in whole or in part.

CONTRACTOR MAY STOP WORK OR TERMINATE:

If, through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety (90) days by the CITY, or under an order of court or other public authority, or CONSULTANT fails to act on any Application of Payment within thirty (30) days after it is submitted, or the CITY fails to pay any sum finally determined to be due within sixty (60) days to CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR may upon CITY’s and CONSULTANT’s receipt of seven (7) days written notice to the CITY and CONSULTANT, terminate the Contract and the CITY shall pay the CONTRACTOR for that portion of the Contract Sum, less the aggregate of previous payments, allocable to the Work completed as of the Date of Termination. The CITY shall not be responsible to reimburse the CONTRACTOR for any continuing contractual commitments for canceling such contractual commitments inasmuch as the CONTRACTOR shall make all subcontracts and other commitments subject to this provision. The CITY may require the CONTRACTOR to promptly assign CITY all or some subcontracts, construction, plant, materials, tools, equipment, appliances, rental agreements, and any other commitments which the CITY, in its sole discretion, chooses to take by assignment, and in such event, the CONTRACTOR shall promptly execute and deliver to the CITY written assignments of the same.

At all times, the CONTRACTOR shall carry on the Work and maintain its progress schedule in accordance with the requirements of the Contract and the determination of the CITY or its representatives, pending a final resolution of the dispute, including, if necessary, any determination by a Court of competent jurisdiction. Any dispute which is not resolved by mutual agreement of CONTRACTOR and CITY’s or CITY’s Project Manager shall be decided by the CITY MANAGER or CITY MANAGER’s designee who shall reduce the decision to writing. The decision of the CITY MANAGER or CITY MANAGER’s designee shall be final and conclusive unless determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be fraudulent, capricious, arbitrary, so grossly erroneous as to necessarily imply bad faith, or not be supported by substantial evidence.

SECTION 01110 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PROCEDURES

PART 1 GENERAL

SCOPE OF WORK
The work covered by this Section consists of furnishing all labor, materials and equipment and performing all work required for the prevention of environmental pollution in conformance with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, during and as the result of construction operations under this Contract. For the purpose of this Specification, environmental pollution is defined as the presence of chemical, physical, or biological elements or agents which adversely affect human health or welfare; unfavorably alter ecological balances; adversely affect plants or animals; or degrade the utility of the environment for aesthetic and/or recreational purposes.
The control of environmental pollution requires consideration of air, water and land, and involves management of noise and solid waste, as well as other pollutants.
The Contractor shall schedule and conduct all work in a manner that will minimize the erosion of soils in the area of the work. Provide erosion control measures required to prevent silting, muddying, or pollution of wetlands, streams, rivers, impoundments, lakes, stormwater ponds, etc. All erosion control measures shall be in place in an area prior to any construction activity in that area and shall be maintained throughout construction. Specific requirements for erosion and sedimentation controls are specified in Section 02270. The Contractor will be required to meet all the conditions specified in the permits and in the Specifications.

All specific conditions attached to existing permits for this site shall be included in the sedimentation and erosion control measures.

APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
The Contractor shall comply with all applicable Federal, State and local laws and regulations and applicable permits and their specific conditions concerning environmental pollution control and abatement.
NOTIFICATIONS
The CITY and/or CONSULTANT will notify the Contractor in writing of any non-compliance with the foregoing provisions or of any environmentally objectionable acts and corrective action to be taken. State or local agencies responsible for verification of certain aspects of the environmental protection requirements shall notify the Contractor in writing, through the CITY or CONSULTANT, of any non-compliance with State or local requirements. The Contractor shall, after receipt of such notice from the CITY or

Consultant or from the regulatory agency through the CITY and/or CONSULTANT, immediately take corrective action. Such notice, when delivered to the Contractor or their authorized representative at the site of the work, shall be deemed sufficient for the purpose. If the Contractor fails or refuses to comply promptly, the CITY may issue an order stopping all or part of the work until satisfactory corrective action has been taken. No part of the time lost due to any such stop orders shall be made the subject of a claim for extension of time or for excess costs or damages by the Contractor unless it is later determined that the Contractor was in compliance.

IMPLEMENTATION
Prior to commencement of the Work, the CONTRACTOR shall meet with the CITY and CONSULTANT to develop mutual understandings relative to compliance with this provision and administration of the environmental pollution control program.
The Contractor shall remove temporary environmental control features, when approved by the CITY or CONSULTANT, and incorporate permanent control features into the project at the earliest practicable time.
PART 2 - PRODUCTS (NOT USED) PART 3 - EXECUTION
EROSION CONTROL
The Contractor shall provide positive means of erosion control such as shallow run on and run off ditches around construction to carry off surface water. Erosion control measures, such as siltation basins, hay check dams, mulching, jute netting and other equivalent techniques, shall be used as appropriate. Flow of surface water into excavated areas shall be prevented. Ditches around construction area shall also be used to carry away water resulting from dewatering of excavated areas. If dewatering is necessary and exceeds SFWMD thresholds, a dewatering plan must be prepared by a certified Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Florida and submitted to the CITY and CONSULTANT; then submitted and approved by the South Florida Water Management District prior to the commencement of work requiring dewatering. Contractor must comply with permits. However, no water from dewatering activities may be discharged offsite. At the completion of the Work, ditches shall be backfilled and the ground surface restored to original condition.

PROTECTION OF STREAMS AND CANALS

Care shall be taken by Contractor to prevent, or reduce to a minimum, any damage to any

ditch or the stormwater outfall canal, from pollution by debris, sediment or other material, or from the manipulation of equipment and/or materials in or near such ditches. Water that has been used for washing or processing, or that contains oils or sediments that will reduce the quality of the water in the ditch, shall not be directly returned to the ditch. Such waters will be diverted through a settling basin or filter approved by the CITY or CONSULTANT and meet required standards before being directed into the ditches and other water bodies.

The Contractor shall not discharge water from dewatering operations directly into any live or intermittent stream, channel, wetlands, surface water or any storm sewer. Water from dewatering operations shall be treated by filtration, settling basins, or other approved method to reduce the amount of sediment contained in the water to allowable levels.

All preventative measures shall be taken by Contractor to avoid spillage of petroleum products and other pollutants. In the event of any spillage, prompt remedial action shall be taken in accordance with a contingency action plan approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Contractor shall submit two (2) copies of approved contingency plans to the CITY and CONSULTANT.
PROTECTION OF LAND RESOURCES

Land resources within the project boundaries and outside the limits of permanent work shall be restored to a condition, after completion of construction that will appear to be natural and not detract from the appearance of the project. Contractor shall confine all construction activities to areas shown on the Drawings.
Outside of areas requiring earthwork for the construction of the new facilities, the Contractor shall not deface, injure, or destroy trees or shrubs, nor remove or cut them without prior approval from the CITY and CONSULTANT. No ropes, cables, or guys shall be fastened to or attached to any existing nearby trees for anchorage unless specifically authorized by the CITY and CONSULTANT. Where such special emergency use is permitted, first wrap the trunk with a sufficient thickness of burlap or rags over which softwood cleats shall be tied before any rope, cable, or wire is placed. The Contractor shall in any event be responsible for any damage resulting from such use.
Where trees may possibly be defaced, bruised, injured, or otherwise damaged by the Contractor’s equipment, dumping or other operations, protect such trees by placing barricades around them. Monuments and markers shall be protected similarly before beginning operations near them.

Any trees or other landscape feature scarred or damaged by the Contractor's equipment or operations shall be restored as nearly as possible to its original condition.

All trimming or pruning shall be performed in an approved manner by experienced workmen with saws or pruning shears. Tree trimming with axes will not be permitted.
Climbing ropes shall be used where necessary for safety. Trees that are to remain, either within or outside established clearing limits, that are subsequently damaged by the Contractor and are beyond saving as determined by the CITY and/or CONSULTANT shall be immediately removed and replaced.

The locations of the Contractor's storage, and other construction structures required temporarily in the performance of the Work, shall be cleared as shown on the Drawings. Drawings showing storage facilities shall be submitted for approval of the CITY and CONSULTANT.

If the Contractor proposes to construct temporary roads or embankments and excavations for work areas, it shall submit the following for approval at least thirty (30) days prior to scheduled start of such temporary work.
A layout of all temporary roads, excavations and embankments to be constructed within the work area.

Details of temporary road construction.
Drawings and cross sections of proposed embankments and their foundations, including a description of proposed materials.
The Contractor shall remove all signs of temporary construction facilities such as haul roads, work areas, structures, foundations of temporary structures, stockpiles of excess of waste materials, or any other vestiges of construction as directed by the CITY and CONSULTANT. The disturbed areas shall be prepared and seeded as described in Section 02924 SEED, MULCH and FERTILIZER, or as
approved by the CONSULTANT.

All debris and excess material will be disposed of in approved areas as noted on the Drawings.
PROTECTION OF AIR QUALITY

Burning. No open fires or burning will be permitted. If need dictates burning of any kind, Contractor must obtain prior approval of CITY and obtain appropriate permits from the state and local government agencies.

Dust Control. The Contractor will be required to maintain all excavations, embankment, stockpiles, access roads, waste areas, borrow areas, and all other work areas within or without the project boundaries free from dust which could cause the standards for air

pollution to be exceeded, and which would cause a hazard or nuisance to others.
An approved method of stabilization consisting of sprinkling or other similar methods will be required to control dust. The use of petroleum products is prohibited.

Sprinkling, to be approved, must be repeated at such intervals as to keep all parts of the disturbed area at least damp at all times, and the Contractor must have sufficient competent equipment on the job to accomplish this if sprinkling is used. Dust control shall be performed as the work proceeds and whenever a dust nuisance or hazard occurs, as determined by the CITY and/or CONSULTANT.
MAINTENANCE OF POLLUTION CONTROL FACILITIES DURING CONSTRUCTION

During the life of this Contract, the Contractor shall maintain all facilities constructed for pollution control as long as the operations creating the particular pollutant are being carried out or until the material concerned has become stabilized to the extent that pollution is no longer being created.

INSTALLATION

Sediment Fence Installation
Sediment fences shall be positioned as indicated on the Drawings and as necessary to prevent off site movement of sediment produced by construction activities as directed by the Project Manager and Engineer.

Dig trench approximately 6-in wide and 6-in deep along proposed fence lines.
Drive stakes, 8-ft on center (maximum) at back edge of trenches. Stakes shall be driven 2-ft (minimum) into ground.
Hang filter fabric on posts carrying to bottom of trench with about 4-in of fabric laid across bottom of trench. Stretch fabric fairly taut along fence length and maintain secure both ways.
Backfill trench with excavated material and tamp.
Install pre-fabricated silt fence according to manufacturer's instructions.

Construct filter boxes as detailed on the Drawings, from 1/4-in woven wire mesh or hardware cloth and wood. Fill with crushed stone and place over all drop inlets and manholes to storm drain system as each inlet is completed. This should be done prior to setting casting, if there is a delay between installation of inlet structures or drain manholes and setting of castings. An alternate method is to ring each inlet with a sediment fence.

Stone Filter Berm Installation
Place berm structural stone across channel just below lower sandbag wall at work area. Face upstream side of structural berm with crushed stone.

Staging areas and access ways shall be surfaced with a minimum depth of 4-in of crushed stone.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTIONS
Inspections

The CONTRACTOR shall make a visual inspection of all erosion and sedimentation control devices once per week and promptly after every rainstorm. If such inspection reveals that additional measures are needed to prevent movement of sediment to offsite areas, promptly install additional devices as needed. Sediment controls in need of maintenance shall be repaired promptly.

Device Maintenance
Sediment Fences
Remove accumulated sediment once it builds up to 1/2 of the height of the fabric.

Replace damaged fabric, or patch with a 2-ft minimum overlap.
Make other repairs as necessary to ensure that the fence is filtering all runoff directed to the fence.

Filter Boxes
Replace crushed stone when it becomes saturated with silt.

Stone Filter Berm
Muck out trapped silt from dewatering operations when it has built up to within 6-in of the top of the berm.

Replace crushed stone filter when saturated with silt.

Add crushed stone to access ways and staging area as necessary to maintain a firm surface free of ruts and mudholes.
TEMPORARY MULCHING

Apply temporary mulch to areas where rough grading has been completed but final grading is not anticipated to begin within 30 days of the completion of rough grading.
Straw mulch shall be applied at rate of 100 lbs/1000 sq ft and tackified with latex acrylic copolymer at a rate and diluted in a ratio per manufacturer’s instructions.

EROSION CONTROL BLANKETS

Erosion control blankets shall be installed in all seeded drainage swales and ditches as shown on the Drawings and as directed by the  Project  Manager  and  Engineer  in

accordance with manufacturer's instructions. The area to be covered shall be properly prepared, fertilized and seeded with permanent vegetation before the blanket is applied. When the blanket is unrolled, the netting shall be on top and the fibers in contact with the soil over the entire area. The blankets shall be applied in the direction of water flow and stapled. Blankets shall be placed a minimum of three rows (of 4-ft) wide (total approx. 12-ft width) within the drainage swale/ditch and stapled together in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Side overlaps shall be 4-in minimum. The staples shall be made of wire, .091-in in diameter or greater, "U" shaped with legs 10-in in length and a 1-1/2-in crown. Commercial biodegradable stakes may also be used with prior approval by the Project Manager and Engineer. The staples shall be driven vertically into the ground, spaced approximately two linear feet apart, on each side, and one row in the center alternately spaced between each size. Upper and lower ends of the matting shall be buried to a depth of 4-in in a trench. Erosion stops shall be created every 25-ft by making a fold in the fabric and carrying the fold into a silt trench across the full width of the blanket. The bottom of the fold shall be 4-in below the ground surface. Staple on both sides of fold. Where the matting must be cut or more than one roll length is required in the swale, turn down upper end of downstream roll into a slit trench to a depth of 4-in. Overlap lower end of upstream roll 4-in past edge of downstream roll and staple.

To ensure full contact with soil surface, roll matting with a roller weighing 100 lbs/ft of width perpendicular to flow direction after seeding, placing matting and stapling. Thoroughly inspect channel after completion. Correct any areas where matting does not present a smooth surface in full contact with the soil below.
REMOVAL AND FINAL CLEANUP
Once the site has been fully stabilized against erosion, remove sediment control devices and all accumulated silt. Dispose of silt and waste materials in proper manner. Re-grade all areas disturbed during this process and stabilize against erosion with surfacing materials as indicated on the Drawings.
PERFORMANCE

Should any of the temporary erosion and sediment control measures employed by the Contractor fail to produce results which comply with the requirements of the State of Florida or the Federal Government, Contractor shall immediately take whatever steps are necessary to correct the deficiency at his own expense.

DEFINITIONS
Excavation consists of removal of material encountered to subgrade elevations indicated and subsequent disposal or reuse of materials removed.

Additional Excavation: If the Engineer believes that the existing soil at subgrade will not support the planned construction, the Engineer may order additional excavation and replacement of the unsuitable material with select material.

Unauthorized excavation consists of removal of materials beyond indicated subgrade elevations or dimensions without specific direction of Engineer. Unauthorized excavation, as well as remedial work directed by Engineer, shall be at Contractor's expense.
Under footings, foundation bases, or retaining walls, fill unauthorized excavation by extending indicated bottom elevation of footing or base to excavation bottom, without altering required top elevation. Lean concrete fill may be used to bring elevations

EXCAVATION
Prior to commencement of trenching and/or excavation, the Contractor shall physically locate all underground utilities as shown on the project construction drawings or as marked by Sunshine One Call or the underground utility Owners. This information shall be provided to the Project Manager prior to trenching and excavation.
Perform all excavation to depths indicated or as specified. During excavation, pile material suitable for backfilling in an orderly manner a sufficient distance from banks of trench to avoid overloading and to prevent slides or cave-ins. Unsuitable backfill material shall be identified and segregated from suitable backfill material and shall be removed from the project site by the Contractor at no expense to the Owner.
The bottom of the excavations shall be firm and dry and in all respects acceptable to the Project Manager and Engineer.

Excavation and dewatering shall be accomplished by methods which preserve the undisturbed state of subgrade soils. The trench may be excavated by machinery to, or just below the designated subgrade, provided that material remaining in the bottom of the trench is no more than slightly disturbed. Subgrade soils which become soft, loose, "quick", or otherwise unsatisfactory as a result of inadequate excavation, dewatering or other construction methods shall be removed and replaced by screened gravel fill as required by the Project Manager and Engineer at the Contractor's expense.
The length of open trench shall be related closely to the rate of pipe lay. Accurately grade bottom of excavations to provide uniform bearing and support for the item being installed on undisturbed soil at every point along its entire load bearing sections, except for portions of pipe sections where it is necessary to excavate for bell holes and for proper sealing of pipe joints.

Where pipe is to be laid directly on the trench bottom, final excavation at the bottom of the trench shall be performed manually, providing a flat bottom true to grade upon undisturbed or slightly disturbed material.

Grade area to prevent surface water from flowing into trenches or other excavations, and remove any water accumulating therein by pumping or by other approved methods.
Correct areas over excavated in accordance with Section 02300 EARTHWORK or Section 02324 BACKFILL.

Where encountered in trench bed, rock shall be excavated to a depth of 1/4 of the pipe diameter below the bottom of the pipe but in no case less than 4 inches. All undercut excavations shall be backfilled and tamped with materials as specified in accordance with Section 02300 EARTHWORK or Section 02324 BACKFILL.
Dig bell holes and depressions for joints after trench bottom has been graded and only of such length, depth, and width as required for properly making particular type of joint, so that pipe rests on prepared bottom for as nearly to its full length as practicable.

Were wet or unstable soil that is incapable of properly supporting pipe, as determined by Project Manager and Engineer, is encountered in the bottom of trench, the trench bottom shall be excavated to a depth of at least two feet below the specified trench bottom. Place filter fabric in the bottom of the trench and support the filter fabric along the trench walls until the trench stabilization has been placed to the proper grade. The ends of the filter fabric shall be overlapped prior to placing the pipe.
For Public Water Distribution Systems, Force Mains, Sanitary Sewers and Storm Drainage: Provide width of trench, at and below top of the pipe, with a clear space between barrel of pipe and trench wall as required by the pipe manufacturer recommendations. As a minimum, the distance between the pipe barrel and the trench wall shall not be less than 24-inches on both sides. This spacing does not apply to exfiltration trenches and the exfiltration trench width shall be as shown on the project construction drawings. The pipe shall rest firmly on undisturbed soil or pipe bedding material for as nearly to the full length of barrel as proper jointing operations will permit.
Electrical Ducts or Cables: Provide trenches for cables or duct of a depth that will provide not less than 2 feet of cover below finished grade. Cut trenches for cables to an over depth of not less than 3 inches. Use select backfill material for not less than 3 inches bedding and 3 inches backfill over cable.

Excavation for Appurtenances: Make sufficient excavation for manholes and similar structures to leave at least 18-inches of clearance between their outer surfaces and embankment or timber which may be used to hold and protect banks. Consider any over depth excavation below such appurtenances that has not been directed by Project Manager or Engineer as unauthorized and fill with sand, gravel, or concrete as directed by the Project Manager or Engineer and at expense of Contractor.
Do not interfere with 45° bearing splay of foundations.

Excavations shall not be left open overnight.

DISPOSAL OF MATERIALS
Excavated material shall be stacked without excessive surcharge on the trench bank or obstructing free access to hydrants and gate valves. Inconvenience to traffic and adjacent property owners/users shall be avoided as much as possible. Excavated material shall be segregated for use in backfilling as specified below.
It is expressly understood that no excavated material shall be removed from the site of the work or disposed of, except as directed by the Project Manager and Engineer. When removal of surplus materials has been approved by the Project Manager and Engineer, dispose of such surplus material in approved designated areas.

Should conditions make it impracticable or unsafe to stack material adjacent to the trench, the material shall be hauled and stored at a location provided. When required, it shall be re-handled and used in backfilling the trench.

OSHA SAFETY COMPLIANCE
Description: The use of trench box or other approved means to comply with the Florida Trench Safety Act (Chapter 90-96, Laws of Florida), and OSHA Trench Safety Standards, shall be used where excavation exceeds 5 feet in depth. CS/HB 3183 called for the OSHA revised excavation safety standards (29 C.F.R. S 1926.650, Subpart P) to be the safety standards for work under this section.
Requirements: The Contract bid submitted by the Contractor who will perform such excavation shall include:

A reference to the trench safety standards that will be in effect during the period of construction.
Written assurance that such Contractor will comply with the applicable trench safety standards.

A unit price quotation on the appropriate line item identifying the cost of compliance (as established in the Summary of Bid Items).
Slope slides of excavations to comply with local codes, ordinances, and requirements of agencies having jurisdiction. Shore and brace where sloping is not possible because of space restrictions or stability of material excavated. Maintain sides and slopes of excavations in safe condition until completion of backfilling.

Execution by Contractor

The Contractor performing trench excavation shall, as a minimum, comply with the excavation safety standards, which are applicable to this project.

Adhere to any special shoring requirements, if any, of the State or other political subdivisions, which may be applicable to such a project.
The Contractor shall consider all geotechnical information, including his own site investigation, in his design of the trench safety system he will employ on the project. The Contractor shall submit his design to the Project Manager at the Pre-Construction Conference.

Trenches and excavations shall not be left open overnight without the written authorization of the Project Manager. All trenches and excavations within 6-feet of the edge of roadway shall be backfilled and properly compacted or trench-plated by the Contractor. In either case, the Contractor shall place type II lighted barricades and snow fence around the trench/excavation at the end of each working day.
Trenches or excavations that reduce the roadway or travel lane width shall be backfilled with suitable sub-grade material and road rock. If the temporary reinstatement is to be in place longer than 48 hours, the roadway shall backfilled and trench-plated by the Contractor. In either case, the Contractor shall place type II lighted barricades adjacent to the roadway impact area(s).
SHEETING AND BRACING
The Contractor shall provide all trench and structural bracing, sheeting, or shoring necessary to construct and protect the excavation, existing utilities, structures and private property of all types and as required for the safety of the employees. Sheeting shall be removed during backfilling operations. Removal of shoring for structures shall be done in such a manner as not to disturb or mar finished masonry or concrete surfaces.

When moveable trench bracing such as trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates are used to support the sides of the trench, care shall be taken in placing and moving the boxes or supporting bracing to prevent movement of the pipe, or disturbance of the pipe bedding and backfill.

When installing pipe, trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates that extend below the mid diameter of the pipe shall be raised to the mid diameter of the pipe before they are moved forward or removed from the excavation.  As trench boxes,

	moveable sheeting, shoring or plates are raised and moved, suitable backfill material		the  project As-Builts  with  vertical  and

DEFINITIONS
A.	Wellpoint: A dewatering system utilizing wellpoints to extract surrounding groundwater in the area of trenching/excavating in order to maintain the operation in a dry condition for preparation of the trench bottom, for pipe laying, placement of bedding material and/or backfill, compaction and density testing.
A dry excavation / trench: Shall be defined as the in situ soil moisture content is no more than two percentage points above the optimum moisture content for that general soil.

PART 2  PRODUCTS
Pump Drivers

Noise levels emitted by diesel and/or gasoline pump drivers shall be controlled by the use of a “quiet-pack” muffler system or other suitable sound attenuation methods and shall not exceed 60 dB for daytime use and 55 dB for night time use at the nearest “receiving” property line. Contractor shall demonstrate, measure and record the dB levels at the time of initial set-up. The Contractor shall record dB levels weekly. The City’s Code Compliance Division of the Boynton Beach Police Department shall have jurisdictional control over the Contractor’s compliance with the City’s Noise Ordinance.

PART 3  EXECUTION
GENERAL
Protection of Property - Contractor shall make an assessment for dewatering induced settlement and shall provide devices or systems, including but not limited to re-injection wells, infiltration trenches and cutoff walls, necessary to prevent damage to existing facilities, completed Work and adjacent facilities.
Control surface water and groundwater such that excavation to final grade is made in the dry, and bearing soils are maintained undisturbed. Prevent softening, or instability of, or disturbance to, the sub-grade due to water seepage.

Provide protection against flotation for all work.

The impact of anticipated subsurface soil/water conditions shall be considered when selecting methods of excavation and temporary dewatering and drainage systems. Through the use of groundwater

observation wells (piezometers), where groundwater levels are found not to be at least 2 feet below the proposed bottoms of excavations, a pumped dewatering system is required for pre-drainage of the soils prior to excavation and for maintenance of the lowered groundwater level until construction has been completed to such an extent that the foundation, structure, pipe, conduit, or fill will not be floated or otherwise damaged. Type of dewatering system, spacing of dewatering units and other details of the work are expected to vary with soil/water conditions at a particular location.
Wellpoints shall not be set in such a way that undermines or jeopardizes paved areas; if the setting of wellpoints undermines or impacts paved areas, the impacted areas shall be removed and restored equal to or better than their original condition at the expense of the Contractor.

Pipe and conduit shall not be installed in water or allowed to be submerged prior to backfilling. Pipe and conduit which becomes submerged shall be removed and the excavation dewatered and restored to proper conditions prior to reinstalling the pipe and conduit
SURFACE WATER CONTROL
Control surface water runoff to prevent flow into excavations. Provide temporary measures such as dikes, ditches and sumps.

GROUNDWATER OBSERVATION WELLS (PIEZOMETERS)
Groundwater	observation	wells (piezometers) shall be installed for monitoring groundwater levels before and during construction / installation of pipelines, foundations and structures that are below or just above the existing groundwater table. A minimum of one well for every 100 feet of pipeline and two wells at each foundation or structure in locations accepted by the Engineer. Observation wells shall be designed and installed in such a manner as to provide an accurate and reliable indcation of the groundwater levels adjacent to the pipelines, foundations and structures.
Each observation well shall be installed in a 2½ inch diameter bore hole extending at least 4-ft below the invert of the pipeline, foundation or structure. Backfill the annular space surrounding the intake and casing with filter sand especially processed for this purpose. Cap the top of the well to prevent infiltration of surface water.

Maintain observation wells until pipelines, foundations and structures are backfilled. Observe and record daily the groundwater elevation  in  each  well.	Furnish measurements daily to the Project Manager. Periodically verify observation well accuracy by adding water to the well and recording the

drop in level from the time the water was added. Redevelop plugged observation wells to maintain accuracy and reliability of groundwater level indication.

Excavation work shall not be performed until the readings obtained from the observation wells indicate that the groundwater has been lowered at least 2 feet below the bottom of the sub-grade within the limits of excavation.

DISPOSAL OF DRAINAGE WATER
All water discharged from temporary dewatering and drainage systems shall be disposed of in accordance with the sedimentation and control plans as specified in Section SC01110 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PROCEDURES. Existing or
new sanitary sewer systems shall not be used to dispose of drainage without written authorization from the Project Manager.

Collect and properly dispose of all discharge water from dewatering and drainage systems in accordance with State and local requirements and permits. As a minimum, no discharge or run-off of groundwater or surface water that is contaminated with any petroleum products (gasoline, diesel fuel, oil, grease, hydraulic fluid, etc.) and/or sanitary waste shall be made to surface water systems such as lakes, rivers, streams, the Intracoastal Waterway or “on-site” retention ponds that secondarily discharge to these surface water systems.
DEWATERING
All State and local permits associated with dewatering are the responsibility of the Contractor.

Dewatering systems shall be designed to allow for localized variations in the depths of the excavations.
Prevent surface water and subsurface or groundwater from flowing into excavations and from flooding project site and surrounding areas. All pumping and drainage shall be done with no damage to property or structures and without interference with the rights of the public, owners of private property, pedestrians and vehicular traffic.

Do not allow water to accumulate in excavations. Remove water to prevent softening of foundation bottoms, undercutting footings, and soil changes detrimental to stability of sub-grades and foundations. Provide and maintain pumps, well points, sumps, suction and discharge lines,  and  other  dewatering  system

components necessary to convey water away from excavations.

Establish and maintain temporary drainage ditches and other diversions outside excavation limits to convey rainwater and water removed from excavations to collecting or runoff areas. Do not use trench excavations as temporary drainage ditches.

Dewatering shall be accomplished well enough in advance of excavation to ensure that groundwater is already lowered prior to completing the final excavation to finish grade.
Lower and maintain groundwater level a minimum of two (2) feet below bottom of excavation during placement and compaction of bedding material and foundation soils and during placement and compaction of fill and back-fill material.

Excavations for foundations and structures shall be maintained in-the-dry for a minimum of 4 days after concrete placement. In no event shall water be allowed to enter an excavation and rise to cause unbalanced pressure on foundations and structures until the concrete or mortar has set at least 24 hours.

Dewatering and drainage operations shall at all times be conducted in such a manner as to preserve the natural undisturbed bearing capacity of the sub-grade at the bottom of the excavation. If the sub-grade becomes disturbed for any reason, the unsuitable sub-grade material shall be removed and replaced with concrete, compacted granular fill, or other approved material to restore the bearing capacity of the sub-grade to its original undisturbed condition at no additional cost to the Owner.
DAMAGE RESTORATION
Damage restoration: The Contractor shall be responsible for any heaving, settlement and/or separation of pavement that results from the dewatering operations. A damage restoration/remediation plan will be required for review and authorization to proceed.

RESTORATION OF DEWATERING ACTIVITIES
As the wellpoints are withdrawn, the locations of the voided areas shall immediately backfilled by jetting approved backfill material into the voids until they are completely filled. These restored wellpoint voids are subject to random density verification testing.

PART 3 EXECUTION
EXAMINATION

Inspect the area to be backfilled to assure that all preceding work activities have been completed and accepted, otherwise, the Contractor will be “at risk” until the preceding work has been accepted by the Project Manager.
DEFINITION OF BACKFILL ZONES

Lowest Zone: The lowest zone is backfilled for deep undercuts up to within 6-inches of the bottom of the pipe.
Bedding Zone: The zone above the lowest zone is the Bedding Zone. Usually it will be backfill which is the 6-inches, or the thickness identified on the project construction drawings, of soil below the bottom of the pipe. If the bedding zone has

been constructed (vs. undisturbed in-situ material), the Bedding Zone shall be placed in lifts no greater than 6-inches (compacted thickness).

Cover Zone: The next zone is backfill that is placed after the pipe has been laid and will be called the Cover Zone. This zone extends to 12-inches above the top of the pipe. The Cover Zone and the Bedding Zone are considered the Soil Envelope for the pipe. The Cover Zone shall be placed in lifts no greater than 6-inches (compacted thickness).

Top Zone: The Top Zone extends from 12-inches above the top of the pipe to the base or final grade. The Top Zone shall be placed in lifts no greater than 12-inches (compacted thickness).
BACKFILL FOR PIPELINES
LOWEST ZONE

When over-excavation is required due to unforeseen site conditions backfill of the over-cut shall have a minimum thickness of 6-inches and shall be manually or mechanically tamped to simulate comparable density to that of the native soils.
BEDDING ZONE
Excavate pipe trench in accordance with Section 02320 TRENCHING AND EXCAVATION for work of this Section. Hand trim excavation for accurate placement of pipe to elevations indicated.

If a trench box is used for the installation of the piping, it shall be raised to an elevation even with the top of the pipe before the Bedding Zone materials are placed. Once the trench-box has been moved upward, forward or removed from the excavation, the voids created by this action shall receive supplemental backfill material and re-compacted to 98% of modified proctor where applicable.
If required, bedding material shall be placed to provide uniform support along the bottom of the pipe and to place and maintain the pipe at the proper elevation. The initial layer of bedding placed to receive the pipe shall be brought to the grade and dimensions indicated on the project construction drawings. All bedding shall extend the full width of the trench bottom. The pipe shall be placed and brought to grade by tamping the bedding material or by removal of the excess amount of the bedding material under the pipe. Adjustment to grade line shall be made by scrapping away or filling with bedding material. Wedging or blocking up of pipe is not permitted. Applying pressure to the top of the pipe, such as with a backhoe bucket, to lower the pipe to the proper elevation or grade shall not be permitted.

Were wet or unstable soil that is incapable of properly supporting pipe, as determined by Project Manager and Engineer, is encountered in the bottom of trench, the trench bottom shall be excavated to a depth of at least two feet below the specified trench bottom. Place filter fabric in the bottom of the trench and support the filter fabric along the trench walls until the over-excavation has been backfilled, in two
1-foot lifts (as applicable based on the backfill material; structural backfill or FDOT rock). The ends of the filter fabric shall be overlapped prior to placing the pipe.
COVER ZONE

Haunching: Initial backfill/haunching material shall be carefully placed by hand until one third of the pipe diameter has been covered. The Contractor shall use non-mechanical means to tamp the backfill/haunching material to form unified initial support for the pipe for each lift.

After haunching of the pipe, carefully and evenly backfill trenches on all sides with suitable backfill materials and thoroughly and carefully tamped each lift until the backfill material reaches the same elevation as the top of the pipe.
If a trench box is used for the installation of the piping, it shall be raised to an elevation even with the top of the pipe before the Cover Zone backfill materials are placed. Once the trench-box has been moved upward, forward or removed from the excavation, the voids created by this action shall receive supplemental backfill material and re-compacted to 98% of modified proctor.
To prevent longitudinal movement of the pipe, dumping backfill material into the trench and then spreading will not be permitted until approved material has been placed and compacted to a level 1-foot over the pipe.

TOP ZONE
For the remaining lifts of backfill, the material shall be placed in 12-inch lifts and compacted. Compact each layer to a density of 98% of modified proctor in paved areas and 95% of modified proctor in landscaped and open areas.

For all non-metallic pipeline installations, detection tape shall be buried 4 to 10-inches beneath the ground surface directly over the top of the utility. Should detection tape need to be installed deeper, the Contractor shall provide 3-inch wide tape. In no case shall detection tape be buried

greater than 20-inches from the finished grade surface. Detection tape shall be appropriately identified based on the specific utility installation.

FOR STRUCTURES:
All structures shall be marked and numbered with gradient lines, by the Contractor, to indicate the required lift thickness.

Carefully backfill around all sides in a continuous and progressive manner in lifts no greater that 6-inchs (compacted thickness) with excavated materials approved for backfilling, free from large clods of earth and stones and compact to 98% of modified proctor in all areas.
For the sides of the structure where there is pipe penetration, the compacted backfill shall be brought up to a point where the pipe, at the correct invert elevation, is resting on compacted backfill. A bell-hole, extending no further than 1-foot from the structure, may be left around the penetration point for mudding-up around the pipe.

GENERAL BACKFILL
All backfill operations shall be done in the dry. The dry condition shall be maintained during placement, compaction and density testing.

As soon as practicable after the pipe has been laid and jointed, backfilling shall begin and thereafter be prosecuted expeditiously.
Flooding of backfill (with potable water) will only be permitted when so directed in writing by the Project Manager.

Reopen improperly backfilled trenches, or trenches where settlement occurs, to depth required for proper compaction, as determined by the Engineer, then refill and compact, with surface restored to required grade and compaction, mounded over and smoothed off.
Backfill open trenches across roadways or other areas to be paved as specified above, backfill entire depth of trench in 6-inch layers, and compact each layer to a density of 98% of modified proctor, so that paving can proceed immediately after backfilling is completed.
Grade ground to reasonable uniformity along all other portions of trenches and leave mounding over trenches in a uniform and neat condition, to the satisfaction of Engineer.

Except as otherwise indicated, top of all piping and conduit to be 36" below finish grade (keeping project swale development in mind) unless incased in concrete. Concrete encasement to consist of a minimum of 4" thick concrete base slab placed prior to

installation of piping or conduit and a minimum 4" thick concrete encasement (sides and top) placed after installation and testing of piping or conduit.

Backfill excavations as promptly as work permits, but not until completion of the following:
Acceptance of construction below finish grade including, where applicable, damp proofing, waterproofing, and perimeter insulation.

Inspection, testing, approval, and recording locations of underground utilities have been performed and recorded.
Removal of concrete formwork.
Removal of trash and debris from excavation.

Backfill areas to contours and elevations with approved materials.

Systematically backfill to allow maximum time for natural settlement. Do not backfill over porous, wet or spongy subgrade surfaces.

Place geotextile fabric over Class A-7 material existing prior to placing next lift of fill (if approved).
Employ a placement method that does not disturb or damage other work.

Maintain optimum moisture content of backfill materials to attain required compaction density.

Backfill against supported foundation walls and concrete structures. Do not backfill against unsupported foundation walls.
Backfill simultaneously on each side of unsupported foundation walls until supports are in place.

Slope grade away from building minimum 2 inches in 10 ft, unless noted otherwise.

Make gradual grade changes. Blend slope into level areas.

Remove surplus backfill materials from site as directed by the Project Manager and/or Engineer.

Leave fill material stockpile areas free of excess fill materials.

TOLERANCES:
Top surface of backfill for site clearing and general earthwork shall be plus or minus 0.10 foot from required elevations.

Top surface of backfill for the creation of or improvements to berms or other stormwater containment earthworks shall be plus 0.10 foot, minus 0.00 foot from required elevations.

FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

Section	SC01400	QUALITY REQUIREMENTS

Compaction testing will be performed in accordance with ASTM D1556 or AASHTO T180 in locations as specified by the Project Manager or Engineer. Project Manager and/or Engineer are to select specific locations and lifts as well as witnessing of all compaction testing.
If tests indicate Work does not meet specified requirements, remove Work, replace and retest.

COMPACTION
Percentage of Maximum Density Requirements: Compact soil to not less than the following percentages of maximum density, in accordance with AASHTO T-180 specifications or ASTM D1557:

Structures, Building Slabs and Steps: 98% of the modified proctor.

Pipe Bedding Zone and Cover Zone: 98% of the modified proctor.

Driveway aprons, sidewalk sections that form part of a driveway apron, driveways and roadways: As a minimum, compact top 12" of subgrade and each layer of backfill or fill material to 98% of the modified proctor. Roadways may require special subgrade stabilization as specified in the project construction drawings.
Lawn or Unpaved Areas: From 1-foot above the top of the pipe (Top Zone), 95% of the modified proctor; areas around structures shall be 98% of the modified proctor.
Sidewalks and walkways: Compact top 12 inches of subgrade and each layer of backfill or fill material to 95% of the modified proctor.

All subgrade shall be compacted and tested up to 6-inches from the edge of the pavement (asphalt or concrete). If for specific design reasons and the project construction drawings requires an area greater than 6-inches outside the edge of slab to be compacted and tested, then those more stringent requirements shall take precedence.
Frequency of Tests:

Pipelines: In Public Right Of Way, swales and under sidewalks, every 100 feet per lift, for driveway aprons each lift, for road crossings each lift in three
locations, as directed by Engineer or Project Manager. Additionally, in the event of low production, density verification testing shall be performed on each day’s work as directed by the Project Manager or Engineer.

In utility easements, every 200 feet per lift.

Public Manholes and Structures: Each lift around structure; all sides shall be tested in random order. In addition, the final lift under pipe penetrations shall be tested.

Berms: Every 200 feet per lift.
Swales: For areas that have been built-up and a swale cut-in every 200 feet; otherwise, density testing of swales cut-in to existing ground does not require density testing.

The Contractor’s Test Lab is to “map” all density test results (pass and fail) on the Record Drawings on each day when field tests are performed. Contractor’s Testing Lab shall leave a copy of the day’s density testing results on site.

Contractor is to instruct their Testing Lab to directly mail signed and sealed copies of all Test Reports (Proctor, Density, Water Quality, etc.) to the Project Manager and Engineer on a weekly basis.

PART 3 EXECUTION
EXAMINATION
Verify that trench cut is ready to receive Work as required by this Section and excavations, dimensions, and elevations are as indicated on project construction drawings.

BEDDING

Excavate pipe trench in accordance with Section  02320  TRENCHING  AND
EXCAVATION for work of this Section. Hand trim excavation for accurate placement of pipe to elevations indicated. Correct over excavation with fine aggregate.
Place bedding material at trench bottom, level materials in continuous layer not exceeding 6 inches compacted depth, compact to 98 percent modified proctor.

Backfill around sides and to top of pipe with cover fill, tamp in place and compact to 98 percent modified proctor for 0ne (1) foot above the top of pipe. Once this elevation has been achieved continue backfilling in accordance with Section 02324 BACKFILL.
INSTALLATION
Pipe Installation:

Gravity wastewater lines shall be laid accurately to both line and grade. The Project Manager will generally not accept any line laid with a slope varying by more than 10% of its design slope especially for lines laid at minimum gradients. For specific instance the minimum acceptable slope of an 8" line shall be 0.40% if the design called for 0.44%. The design slope shall be 0.40% for replacement of existing lines, but in no case shall a replacement line slope be less than the existing slope. The Project Manager reserves the right to independently verify questionable survey results.
Visible leakage deflections, horizontal misalignment, significant bowing, non-constant slopes between manholes and sagging joints shall each be grounds for rejection of lines. Certified verification by televising of line will be required by the Project Manager.

The minimum design depth of a PVC gravity wastewater line shall be 4.5 feet to invert. DIP shall be placed for all

lengths with less than 4.5 feet to invert in cases where this cannot be met and prior approval is obtained.

Trenches and excavations shall be kept dry while work is in progress. The contractor shall be responsible to ensure that all safety requirements are met. Unsuitable excavated material such as boulders, logs, and other deleterious material shall be removed from the site. The pipe barrel shall be uniformly supported along its entire length on undisturbed soil or bedding material. Proper bedding shall be supplied if the existing material includes rock, organic material, or other sharp or unsuitable material.
By-passing of sewage during construction shall be minimized. Wherever it is required to connect to existing facilities or test new treatment facilities after flows have been accepted, the work or tests shall be planned and scheduled so as to allow little or no bypassing of sewage. Such plans and schedule shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval by the proper authority before any bypassing takes place. The Contractor shall NOT intentionally discharge any wastewater into an unlined open trench during repairs or tie-in operations.
Where connecting to existing lines, it shall be done at such a time in such a manner to cause the least amount of interruption to the customer services and the handling of any "wet sewers" shall be in accordance with the regulations of the Palm Beach County Health Department.

Manhole Installation:
Excavations for manholes and other structures shall be over-excavated and plastic filter fabric (Geotextile) of a sufficient size to envelope the rock support bed shall be placed in the bottom of the excavation. The rock support bed shall be 12-inch thick (or as specified on the project construction drawings) FDOT 57 rock and shall be placed prior to installing the structure. Manholes shall be set according to project construction drawings and shall be precast in accordance with approved shop drawings, specification detail and project construction drawings for this project. The manhole invert shall be carefully shaped to conform to the pipe flow channel. Flow channels within the manholes involving changes of direction or slide slopes shall smoothly direct the flow in accordance with detail drawings. All concrete irregularities shall be plastered with cement mortar in such a

manner as to give neat and water-tight job. Manholes shall be core-drilled to provide pipe opening when precast hole is not available.
"Ram-nek" or equivalent shall be used at all riser joints. Structures with any leakage will not be accepted.

Brick used for risers, setting frames, and covers shall be 3-hole brick.

INSTALLATION OF CONDUIT INTO INLET
/ STRUCTURE

The diameter for the pipe opening shall be 6 inches larger than the outside diameter of the pipe. The pipe shall penetrate the interior wall of the structure a minimum of 2-inches and shall be centered in the opening. After pipe is set, the annular space around the outside of the pipe and the wall of the structure shall be filled with a minimum of one (1) course of 3-hole brick and cement mortar or approved grout mix.
Service Lateral Installation

Service lines shall be connected to the sewer lines by means of a wye fitting with a branch as shown on the standard drawings. The branch of the wye fitting will be elevated as directed depending on the depth of the sewer and the elevation of the property to be served. Eighth bends shall be used to connect the service line at the wye branch. Service lines shall be installed at such grades as will adequately serve the properties.
Service lines shall extend from the sewer main to the property line and be reconnected to the existing building sewer line unless otherwise shown. Service lines shall be 6-inches with adaptors or reducers as required to make the tie in connection.
Changes in pipe alignment may be accomplished using appropriate fittings or through pipe deflection. Pipe deflection at the joint is allowed with ductile iron pipe only and shall not exceed 75% of the manufacturer's recommended maximum joint deflection.
Cleanouts

Material to be the same as service line. Configuration to be shown on the project construction drawings. Cleanouts that must be installed in traffic bearing areas require the approval of the Project Manager and Engineer on a case-by-case basis.

When this configuration is approved, cleanouts shall be installed in “mini-manholes”.

Establish elevations and pipe inverts for cleanout wye inline connection before installation.
All road crossings and pavement cuttings shall be in accordance with the requirements of the City or Palm Beach County (if the project is located in their jurisdiction and within the Department's service area).

INSPECTION AND TESTING
VISUAL INSPECTION:

Test for Displacement of Sewers: Sewer mains will be checked by Engineer to determine whether any displacement of pipe has occurred, after trench has been backfilled to 2 feet above pipe and tamped as specified. Light will be flashed between manholes, or, if manholes have not as yet been constructed, between locations of manholes, by means of flashlight or by reflecting sunlight with a mirror. If illuminated interior of pipelines show poor alignment, displaced pipe, or any other defects, remedy as determined by the Engineer, the Contractor shall remedy at their expense.
Watertight Construction: It is imperative that all sewers and force mains, manholes, and service connections be built watertight and that the Contractor adhere rigidly to the specifications for material and workmanship. All of the sewage will be pumped for treatment and special care and
attention must be given to securing watertight construction.
STATIC HEAD PRESSURE TEST:

Contractor shall test all sewer lines for infiltration/exfiltration using a static-head pressure test. The maximum allowable leakage shall not exceed 200-gallons/inch pipe diameter per mile per 24-hour period. Once a system or system segment has passed the static head pressure test, the Contractor shall generate a Test Report, signed by the Contractor and Project Manager, for inclusion in the Project Record Documents.
Final Inspection:

Inspection: Contractor shall clean and perform a T. V. inspection with video tape or DVD recording and log of the sewer  line.   All  repairs  shown

necessary by the T. V. inspection are to be made, all deposits removed and the sewers left true to line and grade, clean and ready for use.
All inspection costs shall be paid for by the Contractor.

PART 3 EXECUTION
EXAMINATION

Verify that trench cut is ready to receive Work as required by this Section and excavations, dimensions, and elevations are as indicated on project construction drawings. Refer to Section 02320 TRENCHING AND EXCAVATION for trench
widths.

INSTALLATION
Pipelines:

Gravity stormwater lines shall be laid accurately to both line and grade. The Project Manager will generally not accept any line laid with a slope varying by more than 15% of its design slope, especially for lines laid at minimum gradients where scouring velocity cannot be achieved. The Project Manager reserves the right to independently verify questionable as-built survey results. Visible leakage (unless designed for a percolation system), deflections, horizontal misalignment, vertical joint sagging shall be grounds for rejection of the storm lines.
As soon as the excavation is complete to normal grade of the bottom of the trench, granular material bedding shall be placed and graded to provide continuous support for the pipe. The pipe shall be laid accurately to the lines and grades indicated on the Drawings. Blocking under the pipe will not be permitted.

Pipe joints shall be wrapped with an overlapping layer of geotextile material.

Initial backfill shall be placed evenly on each side of the pipe in 6-in lifts and hand tools shall be used where needed to give firm continuous support for the pipe. For pipe diameters that are designated as 24-inch and greater, the initial backfill shall be placed in two (2) lifts to the spring-line of the pipe, each lift thoroughly compacted and density tested. The next section to be backfilled shall be to the top of the pipe, in two (2) lifts, thoroughly compacted and each lift density tested.
The final backfill to 3 feet above the pipe shall be placed in 1-ft layers and carefully compacted. The compaction shall be done evenly on each side of the pipe and motorized compaction equipment shall not be operated directly over the pipe until sufficient backfill has been placed to ensure that such compaction equipment will not have a damaging effect on the pipe.
When moveable trench bracing such as trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates are used to support the sides of the trench, care shall be taken in placing and moving the boxes or supporting bracing to prevent movement of the pipe, or disturbance of the pipe bedding and the backfill. Trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates shall not be allowed to extend below top of the pipe. If

trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates have been installed below the top of the pipe, they shall be moved slowly taking care not to disturb pipe, bedding or backfill. As trench boxes, moveable sheeting, shoring or plates are moved, pipe backfill shall be placed to fill any voids created and the backfill shall be re-compacted and density tested to provide and confirm uniform side support for the pipe.

The minimum design depth and the minimum cover of a stormwater line shall be as shown on the project construction drawings. Project Manager prior approval shall be obtained if either of these minimums cannot be met.
Trenches and excavations shall be kept dry while work is in progress. The Contractor shall be responsible to ensure that all safety requirements are met. Unsuitable material such as boulders and logs shall be removed from the site. The pipe barrel shall be uniformly supported along its entire length on undisturbed soil or bedding material. Proper bedding shall be supplied if the existing material includes rock, organic material or other sharp or unsuitable material.

The backfill, compaction and density information provided above is a general narrative of the process, refer to Section 02324 BACKFILL for specific backfill, compaction and density testing procedures and requirements.
INLET / STRUCTURE INSTALLATION (STORMWATER)

Structures shall be set to the pipe grade firm and plumb in the location(s) shown on the project construction drawings. Excavations for inlets and other stormwater structures shall be over-excavated and plastic filter fabric (Geotextile), of a sufficient size to envelope the rock support bed shall be placed in the bottom of the excavation, then place a 12 inch thick (or as specified on the project construction drawings) FDOT No. 4 or FDOT No. 57 stone support bed, wrap and overlap the geotextile and then install the structure. Joints shall be cleaned, primed and the required gasket or sealant applied as recommended by the manufacturer. Voids remaining in the joint shall be caulked with anhydrous cement grout on both the inside and outside to make a smooth watertight joint seal.

Structures shall be located along the center line of the swale and parallel to

the edge of roadway and/or sidewalk. In the event of a design “bust”, final grate elevation shall be 0.10 of a foot lower that the adjacent final grade of the roadway or sidewalk, whichever is lower.

Backfill, compaction and density testing shall be in accordance with Section 02324 BACKFILL.
INSTALLATION OF CONDUIT INTO INLET
/ STRUCTURE
The diameter for the pipe opening shall be 6 inches larger than the outside diameter of the pipe. The pipe shall penetrate the interior wall of the structure a minimum of 2-inches and shall be centered in the opening. After pipe is set, the annular space around the outside of the pipe and the wall of the structure shall be filled with a minimum of one (1) course of 3-hole brick and cement mortar or approved grout mix. Drainage systems designated as water tight shall have approved gaskets and/or water-stop fittings at all pipe-to-structure joints.

If inlet / structure contains a weir or other water elevation control structure, the weir wall shall incorporate the bleed down orifice with the opening bottom set at the normal control elevation. The top of the weir wall shall be set at the design.
FRAMES AND COVERS
The manhole, inlet and structure frames and covers shall be set firmly in place with 3-hole brick and cement mortar so that the top of cover will be flush with the finished grade in paved areas (following the cross slope / slope of roadways and/or driveways) and 1" above the finished grade in unpaved areas, unless shown otherwise on the project construction drawings.

Swales shall be developed and/or improved as shown on the project construction drawings.
INSPECTION AND PIPE TESTING

Testing of all HDPE pipe shall be as follows:
Allowable Deflection Test
Pipe deflection measured not less than 45 days after the backfill has been completed as specified shall not exceed 5 percent of the pipe's base inside diameter as defined in AASHTO M-294 and as required by FDOT Section 430.

Deflection for pipe diameters 36 inches and less shall be measured with a rigid mandrel (Go/No-Go) device cylindrical in shape and constructed with evenly spaced arms or prongs. The dimensions of the mandrel will be field verified by the Engineer. The mandrel shall be hand-pulled through all pipelines. Mandrels used for large diameter pipe need to be modified to be installed within the dimensions of the manhole and manhole openings.

Any section of pipe not passing the mandrel shall be uncovered at no additional cost to the Owner and the bedding and backfill replaced to prevent excessive deflection. Repaired pipe shall be retested.
VISUAL INSPECTION:
Upon completion of the installations, the system shall be flushed thoroughly to remove dirt and other foreign matter.

Storm drainage conduits shall be internally inspected by any combination of the following methods, i.e., confined space entry and physical measurements taken or lamping. The Contractor shall be responsible for providing all necessary actions and equipment for confined space entry. If the internal inspection shows poor pipe alignment, deflected, deformed or displaced pipe, or any other defects, the Contractor at their expense shall correct these defects.
At the Project Manager’s discretion, portions of or the entire system may be televised by the Utilities Department. If the televised pipelines show poor alignment, deflected, deformed or displaced pipe or any other defects, the Contractor at their expense shall correct these defects.

Upon completion of the storm water improvements and corresponding roadway, under the observation of the Project Manager, the Contractor shall utilize either their water truck or City fire hydrants (with Contractor’s temporary water meter installed) to thoroughly flood the roadway to verify drainage flow lines.

Correction of incorrect flow lines (not corresponding to the grades and lines shown on the construction plans) and any birdbaths is the responsibility of the Contractor (at their expense).

Lime:
Lime used as a stabilizing material: ASTM C207 Type N.
Limerock Base:
Limerock as stabilizing material or base coarse shall be to a compacted depth of at least 8 inches and shall consist of fossiliferous limestone of uniform quality, and shall not contain hard or flinty pieces that will prevent attainment of a smooth pavement surface free from pits and pockets. At the Contractor's option, either Ocala limerock or Miami Oolite limerock may be used, but only one type may be used on this Project.

Limerock shall be composed of not less that 70% of carbonates of calcium and magnesium, and not more than 3% of water-sensitive clay mineral.
Shell Base:
Shell as a stabilizing material or base course shall be to a compacted depth of at least 8 inches and shall be of mollusk family (i.e. oysters, mussels, clams, or cemented coquina). Steamed shell will not be permitted.

At least 50% (by weight) of the total material shall be retained on a No. 4 sieve. Not more than 7.5 % (by weight) of the total material passing the No. 200 sieve shall be removed by washing and the remainder shall consist of shell particles, chert and sand.
Prime/Tack Coat: The bituminous material to be used for prime/tack coats shall be either Cut-back Asphalt, Grade RC-70 or RC-250, or emulsified asphalt grades as specified in Section 300-2.1 of the "Standard Specifications" and approved by the Engineer. Materials shall conform to "Standard Specifications", Section 916 and the AASHTO requirements specified therein.

Asphaltic Concrete Surface Course:

Asphaltic concrete surface course Superpave, Type S, S-I, S-II and S-III shall be composed of a mixture of aggregate, mineral filler and asphalt cement. Other types will be considered if not specified on the construction plans. Type should match adjacent existing pavement type if the Project requires restoration and not total resurfacing.
The job mix formula, size and percent of aggregates shall be as specified in the "Standard Specifications".

PART 3 EXECUTION
EXAMINATION
Contractor must examine the site conditions and assure themselves that all proceeding construction activities are complete and the area is ready, as applicable, for stabilizing, application of base course and/or asphalt.
Paver must examine the areas and conditions under which paving is to be installed. Notify the Contractor in writing of conditions detrimental to the proper and timely completion of the work. Do not proceed with the work until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in a manner acceptable to the Paver.

EXCAVATION
Excavation shall be as required for the subgrade and cross section as shown on the project construction drawings. All suitable materials removed from the excavation shall be used as far as practicable in the formation of embankments, subgrades, and shoulders, and in such other places as directed by the Engineer. No excavated material shall be wasted without permission and where necessary to waste such material, it shall be disposed of in the locations directed by the Engineer. Muck and other unsuitable material shall be removed and replaced with suitable material. All material used shall be free of stumps, roots, brush, sod, rubbish, rocks or other unsuitable material.
SUBGRADES

Subgrade construction shall consist of bringing the bottom of excavations and top of embankments of the roadway, between the outer limits of the paving or base course, to a surface conforming to the grades, lines and cross sections shown on the drawings, of uniform density, ready to receive the base course. The entire subgrade in both cuts and fills shall be thoroughly plowed and mixed to a depth of at least 12 inches below grade.

The limits of the roadbed included in the designation of subgrade shall be as shown in

the profile shown on the project construction drawings. The lines and grades shall be established by the Contractor as shown on the drawings and shall be maintained by means of grade stakes placed in lines parallel to the centerline of the area to be paved and spaces so that string lines may be stretched between the stakes.

At least 6 inches (loose measurement) of a suitable commercial stabilizing material shall be mixed into the subgrade for stabilization in accordance with the "Standard Specifications", Section 160 and 230. The Florida Bearing Value (FBV) shall be 75 pounds. Density tests will be paid for by Contractor except for additional tests requested by the Project Manager and/or Engineer.
After the subgrade has been prepared, it shall be kept free from ruts, depressions and any damage resulting from the hauling or handling of tools and equipment.

BASE COURSE
Limerock or Shell:
Base material shall be dumped on the end of the preceding spread without dumping or hauling directly on the sub-grade. Equipment for spreading and grading shall be as specified in Section
200 and 250 of the "Standard Specifications". After the spreading is completed, the entire surface shall be scarified and then shaped to produce the required grade and cross section after compaction. Water shall be added as required to obtain the specified density.
If, at any time, the subgrade material should become mixed with the base course material, the Contractor shall, without additional compensation, dig out and remove the mixture, reshape and compact the subgrade, and replace the materials removed with clean base material which shall be shaped and compacted as specified above.

The completed base course shall be thoroughly cured before the prime coat or wearing surface is laid. The prime coat shall be applied only when the moisture content of the base does not exceed 90% of the optimum moisture for the base material. The Contractor shall maintain the base course to a true and satisfactory surface until the first lift of asphalt is laid.

After completion of compaction, the surface of the base course shall be checked with a template cut to the required crown, and the thickness shall be checked by borings. Any surface irregularities in excess of 1/4 inch or any deficient thickness shall be corrected by scarifying and adding material after which the

entire area shall be re-compacted and examined.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Overlay Operations

	Mill all keyways and areas as shown on the project construction drawings.
	Remove all loose material from existing asphalt surface immediately before applying prime coat.
Tack Coat: Apply at the rate of 0.02 to
0.08 gallon per sq. yd., over existing asphalt surface. Application of tack coat shall be immediately before overlay operations.
Roadway Construction

	Proof roll prepared base course surface to check for unstable areas and areas requiring additional compaction.
	Remove all loose material from compacted base surface immediately before applying prime coat.

	Prime Coat: Apply at the rate of 0.35 to 0.40 gallon per sq. yd., over compacted base course. Apply material to penetrate and seal, but not flood, surface. Apply a light uniform cover of sand and allow to cure. Unless approved by the Project Manager, application of prime coat shall be within 48 hours of the asphalting operations.
PLACING ASPHALT
General

Lay all asphalt, including leveling course, other than adjacent to curb and gutter or other true edges, by the string line method to obtain an accurate, uniform alignment of the pavement edge.
For overlay operations only, an alternative to the initial string line method would be to apply the asphalt overlay, survey and mark the roadway centerline, measure lane width on each side of centerline then string line and saw-cut the edge to match the existing in order to obtain an accurate, uniform alignment of the pavement edge. In no case shall the asphalt overlay material “overhang” the edge of the existing roadway.

Place asphalt mixture on clean prepared surface, spread and strike-off. Place inaccessible and small areas by hand.  Place each course to

required grade, cross-section and compacted thickness.

Follow "Standard Specification" Section 330 for general construction of the surface course as applicable to this project.
Joints:

Make joints between old and new pavements, or between successive days work, to ensure continuous bond between adjoining work.
Construct joints to have same texture, density and smoothness as other sections of asphalt concrete course. Clean contact surfaces and apply tack coat.
Protection:
Immediately after placement, protect pavement from mechanical injury for sufficient time necessary or until surface temperature is less than 140°F.

Erect barricades to protect paving from traffic until mixture has cooled and attained its maximum degree of hardness.
STRIPING	(TEMPORARY AND	PERMANENT) RAISED PAVEMENT MARKINGS AND SIGNAGE

Once the asphalt has been placed and has achieved its maximum degree of hardness, Contractor shall apply temporary STOP BARS and striping as specified on the project construction drawings or in the applicable FDOT Index (9535 through 17356).
Depending on the chemistry of the thermostripping material, after the final asphalt placement, permanent striping and RPMs shall be applied as specified on the project construction drawings or in the applicable FDOT Index (9535 through 17356). For sanitary and force main ARV manholes located within the grassed right of way (ROW) or swale, green RPMs shall be placed near the center of the roadway on the corresponding side of the yellow line. For sanitary and force main ARV manholes located in the rear easement, green RPMs shall be placed near the corresponding edge of the roadway. Blue RPMs shall be placed in the center on the nearest travel lane directly in front of all fire hydrants.

Roadway signage shall be as specified on the project construction drawings or in the applicable FDOT Index. Street terminations shall be signed as specified in FDOT Index 17349
FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

Section	SC01400	QUALITY REQUIREMENTS

Compaction testing will be performed in accordance with ASTM D1556 or AASHTO T180 in locations as specified by the Project Manager or Engineer. Project Manager and/or Engineer are to select specific locations and lifts as well as witnessing of all compaction testing.
If tests indicate Work does not meet specified requirements, remove Work, replace and retest. In general, the re-test locations shall be as specified in FDOT Standard Specification 125.

Roadway Subgrade Compaction:

As a minimum, the top 12-inches of the roadway subgrade shall be compacted to 98% of the modified proctor. Some roadways may require special subgrade stabilization, i.e., LBR 40 or as otherwise specified in the project construction drawings. When special subgrade stabilization is required by the project construction drawings, those requirements shall be superior to this specification requirement.

The frequency of density verification testing shall be 3 tests (usually edge of roadway – crown/center – edge of roadway) every 100 linear feet and 1 test for every 100 linear feet of curb.
Roadway Base Course Compaction:

	Compaction shall be by rolling with a combination of steel wheel and rubber tired rollers until 98% of the maximum density is reached as tested under AASHTO Method T-180. Compaction and finishing shall be in accord with single course base requirements of Paragraph 200-6 AND 250-7 of the "Standard Specifications".
	The frequency of density verification testing shall be 3 tests (usually edge of roadway – crown/center – edge of roadway) every 100 linear feet and 1 test for every 100 linear feet of curb.

Asphalt Testing/Verification: Test the in-place asphalt courses for compliance with requirements for thickness and surface smoothness. Repair or remove and replace unacceptable paving as directed by Engineer.

Thickness: The compacted thickness of the base or surface courses shall be not less than that shown on the project construction drawings.

Surface Smoothness:

Test finished surface of each asphalt course for smoothness, using 15 foot

straightedge applied parallel with the centerline of paved area and extended across all joints. Surfaces will not be acceptable if exceeding the following tolerances for smoothness.

Base Course Surface: 1/4 inch
Wear	Course	and	Overlay Surface: 1/8 inch

Check surfaced areas at intervals as directed by the Engineer

Using the Contractors water truck or metered fire hydrant, Contractor shall flood the finished roadway to verify water coursing and flow line. Any ponding or “bird baths” will be cause for rejection.

It shall be reasonably free of large clods, roots and other materials that will interfere with the work and subsequent mowing and maintenance operations. Hand picking may be required.
Soil Analysis: Before applying fertilizer, the soil pH shall be brought to a range of 6.0 - 7.0.
APPLICATION
General:

Weather Limitations: Fertilizing, seeding or mulching operations will not be permitted when wind velocities exceed 15 miles per hour. Seed shall be sown only when the soil is moist and in proper condition to induce growth. No seeding shall be done when the ground is unduly wet, or otherwise not in a tillable condition.

Sequence of Operations: The several operations involved in the work shall proceed in the following sequence: Preparation and fertilizing of the ground, seeding, spreading of mulch, cutting-in of mulch and rolling.
Fertilizing:

The fertilizer shall be spread uniformly at the rate of 500 pounds per acre, or
11.5 pounds/1000 square feet by a spreading device capable of uniformly distributing the material at the specified rate. Immediately after spreading, the fertilizer shall be mixed with the soil to a depth of approximately four (4) inches.
On steep slopes, where the use of a machine for spreading or mixing is not practicable, the fertilizer shall be spread by hand and raked in and thoroughly mixed with the soil to a depth of two (2) inches.

Where fertilizer is applied hydraulically, it need not be worked into the soil.

Seeding:
While the soil is still loose and moist, the seed shall be scattered uniformly over the grassing area at a rate of 200 pounds per acre, or 4.5 pounds per 1000 square feet.

When so directed by the Engineer, seed of an approved quick growing species of grass, such as rye, Italian rye, millet or other cereal grass, shall be spread at a rate of 30 pounds per acre in conjunction with the permanent type seed mixture.
Seed may be applied hydraulically, but not in the mulch slurry.

Mulching:

Approximately two (2) inches, loose thickness, of the mulch material shall be applied uniformly over the seeded areas, and the mulch material cut into the soil with the equipment specified, so as to produce a loose mulched thickness of three (3) inches to four (4) inches. Care shall be exercised that the materials are not cut too deeply into the soil.

When green mulch is used, it shall be incorporated into the soil not later than two (2) days after being cut and no artificial watering of the mulch shall be done before it is applied.

On steep slopes, the mulch material shall be applied and, in lieu of being cut into the soil, shall be anchored down. Anchoring shall be done be either of the following methods.
Placing a layer of soil, approximately two (2) inches thick by nine (9) inches wide, along the upper limits of the mulch and spotting soil piles over the rest of the area at a maximum spacing of four (4) feet.
Spreading a string net over the mulch, using stakes driven flush with the top of the mulch at 6-foot centers and stringing parallel and perpendicular, with diagonals in both directions.

Rolling: Immediately after completion of the mulching, the entire seeded and mulched area shall be rolled thoroughly with the equipment specified. At least two trips over the entire area will be required.

Hydraulic mulching: Wood fiber mulch shall be applied at the following rate:
Flat surfaces to 3 to 1 slopes: 1,500 lb. per acre.
Slopes steeper than 3 to 1: 2,000 lb per acre.

Critical areas, where designated: 2,500 lb per acre.

Blanket shall be rolled out and placed in the direction of maximum slope.

Watering: The seeded areas shall be watered so as to provide optimum growth conditions for establishment of the grass. In no case, however, shall the period of maintaining such moisture be less than 1 week after the planting.

Single Hydraulic Application: Using the standard hydraulic mulching equipment, the wood fiber mulch, seed and fertilizer may be applied as a combined slurry in a single application, provided that the seed is increased to the rate of 240 pound per acre and the fertilizer is increased to 840 pounds per acre.
Maintenance:
The Contractor shall, at his expense, maintain the seeded areas in a satisfactory  condition  until  Final

Acceptance of the project. Such maintenance shall include the repairing of any damaged areas where the establishment of the grass stand does not appear to be developing satisfactorily, or where erosion has washed away an area and filling and leveling are required.

Replanting or repair necessary due to the Contractor’s negligence, carelessness or failure to provide routine maintenance shall be at the Contractor’s expense.

All areas which do not show a satisfactory catch of grass shall be reseeded at intervals of 21 days until a dense lawn of permanent grasses, free from any bare spots, areas of washout or erosion damage has been established.
Seeded areas shall be maintained by the Contractor as long as necessary to establish a dense cover as specified above.

Fertilization (lawns): As required to maintain healthy, vigorous turf, minimum of two (2) applications. One application shall be applied at time of planting and the other just prior to the end of the maintenance period.
Mowing: Four complete mowings shall be included in the base price for seeding and mulching. The last mowing shall be done just prior to Final Acceptance.

In some cases, as directed by the Project Manager or Engineer, the Contractor may be required to set up vibration monitoring

equipment and monitor the pile driving operations in accordance with Section 02018 VIBRATION MONITORING.

Perform PDA monitoring during all pile driving.

Piles shall be driven by such methods and equipment as will not impair their strength and as will insure the pile retaining the initial driving resistance and full lateral support of the soil. Piles without proper lateral support will be rejected.
Pile driver leads shall be of such a type that will hold the pile firmly in position and alignment and in axial alignment with the hammer. Driving of each pile shall be continuous without interruption until the pile has been driven to final penetration. If driving is interrupted before final penetration is reached, the record of penetration shall not be resumed until at least a 12-inch penetration has been obtained on resumption of driving.
Cap blocks shall consist of one solid block of hardwood of proper shape and dimensions to fit the hammer. The grain of the block shall be parallel to the axis of the pile. If laminated materials are used, the strength of such materials shall be equal to or greater than hardwood. The introduction of other materials to cushion the hammer blows will not be permitted. Details of the cap block arrangement shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval as specified above.
All piling within one-hundred (100) feet of an existing structure shall be predrilled. Any pile shall be predrilled if required by underground obstructions. Size of predrilled hole shall be such that pile has lateral support of soil. Extreme caution shall be exercised during pile driving operations to prevent damage to existing facilities and structures due to vibrations or other effects.

Piles shall be driven with diesel or steam operated hammer which develops a minimum energy of 15,000-foot pounds per blow. Piles shall be designated for a safe bearing capacity of 25 tons, as determined by the following formula:
2E R = S + 0.1 + 0.01P

Where:
R = Safe bearing value in tons.
S = the average penetration per blow in inches P = weight of the pile as driven in tons
E = energy per blow of hammer in foot-tons
"S" shall be determined by computing the penetration per blow averaged during the last 10 to 20 hammer blows.
"E" = manufacturers rated capacity for the speed used in driving for double acting hammers; [product of weight of striking parts of hammer] x [height of hammer fall for single acting hammers]; energy per blow shall be determined in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations for combustion hammers.

All piles damaged, mislocated or driven out of alignment shall be withdrawn and replaced. Only when approved in writing by the Project Manager and Engineer, the abandoned pile may be left in place. Replacement piles shall be furnished and driven without additional cost to the Owner. This provision shall also apply to test piles.
Observation and measurements shall be made in the field during the process of driving by any suitable method satisfactory to the Project Manager and Engineer, to determine whether a driven pile has been lifted from its original seat during the operation of driving adjacent piles. The Contractor shall provide the necessary tools and instruments to make these measurements. Where such observations or measurements indicate that a pile has been unseated, it shall be re-driven to the resistance specified.
When approved by and Engineer, piling may be jetted to within 24 inches of final bearing, provided that each section is driven to final bearing in accordance with the criteria presented above.

TOLERANCES
Maximum Variation from Vertical for Plumb Piles: 1 in 48; however not more 2 inches.

Maximum Variation from Required Angle for Batter Piles: 1 in 24.

Maximum Variation from Pile Cut off Elevation: 4 inches.

Maximum Out of Position: 3 inches.
FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

Field inspection will be performed under provisions of Section SC01400 QUALITY REQUIREMENTS.
Perform load tests to requirements of FDOT Standard Specifications Section 455-7.
Test Piles: Same diameter and type as specified for other piling, placed in same manner.

Accepted test piles may be used in the Work.

UNACCEPTABLE PILES
Unacceptable Piles: Piles that fail tests, are placed out of position, are below cut off elevations, or are damaged.

Provide additional piles or replace piles to conform to specified requirements.

Non-Exclusive; No Guaranty. This Agreement is non-exclusive and the CITY reserves the right to award other contracts for work falling within the scope of this Agreement. No Purchase Order(s), Task Order(s), or minimum amount of work or compensation is guaranteed under this Agreement.

DEFAULT OF CONTRACT & REMEDIES.

Correction of Work. If, in the judgment of CITY, Work provided by VENDOR does not conform to the requirements of this Agreement, or if the Work exhibits poor workmanship, CITY reserves the right to require that VENDOR correct all deficiencies in the Work to bring the work into conformance without additional cost to CITY, and/or replace any personnel who fail to perform in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. CITY shall be the sole judge of non-conformance and the quality of workmanship.

Default of Contract. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Agreement by VENDOR :
The abandonment of the project by VENDOR for a period of more than seven (7) business days.

The abandonment, unnecessary delay, refusal of, or failure to comply with any of the terms of this Agreement or neglect, or refusal to comply with the instructions of the CITY’s designee.

The failure by VENDOR to observe or perform any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Agreement to be observed or performed by VENDOR, where such failure shall continue for a period of seven (7) days after written notice thereof by CITY to VENDOR; provided, however, that if the nature of VENDOR 's default is such that more than seven (7) days are reasonably required for its cure, then VENDOR shall not be deemed to be in default if VENDOR commences such cure within said seven (7) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

The assignment and/or transfer of this Agreement or execution or attachment thereon by VENDOR or any other party in a manner not expressly permitted hereunder.

The making by VENDOR of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, or the filing by or against VENDOR of a petition to have VENDOR adjudged a bankruptcy, or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against VENDOR, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) calendar days); or the appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of substantially all of VENDOR's assets, or for VENDOR 's interest in this Agreement, where possession is not restored to VENDOR within thirty (30) calendar days; for attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of VENDOR 's assets, or for VENDOR 's interest in this Agreement, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) calendar days.

Remedies in Default. In case of default by VENDOR, CITY shall notify VENDOR, in writing, of such abandonment, delay, refusal, failure, neglect, or default and direct VENDOR to comply with all provisions of the Agreement. A copy of such written notice shall be mailed to the Surety on the Performance Bond. If the abandonment, delay, refusal, failure, neglect or default is not cured within seven (7) business days of when notice was sent by CITY, CITY may declare a default of the Agreement and notify VENDOR of such declaration of default and terminate the Agreement. The Surety on the Performance Bond shall within ten (10) business days of such declaration of default, rectify or cause to be rectified any mismanagement or breach of service in the Agreement and assume the Work of VENDOR and proceed to perform Work under the Agreement, at its own cost and expense.

Upon such declaration of default, all payments remaining due VENDOR at the time of default, less all sums due CITY for damages suffered, or expenses incurred by reason of default, shall be due and payable to Surety. Thereafter the Surety shall receive monthly payments equal to those that would have been paid by the VENDOR had the VENDOR continued to perform the services under the Agreement.

CITY may complete the Agreement, or any part thereof, either by day labor, use of a subcontractor, or by re-letting a contract for the same, and procure the equipment and the facilities necessary for the completion of the Agreement, and charge the cost of same to VENDOR and/or the Surety together with the costs incident thereto to such default.

In the event CITY completes the Agreement at a lesser cost than would have been payable to VENDOR under this Agreement, if the same had been fulfilled by VENDOR, CITY shall retain such differences. Should such cost to CITY be greater, VENDOR shall pay the amount of such excess to the CITY.

Notwithstanding the other provisions in this Article, CITY reserves the right to terminate the Agreement at any time, whenever the service provided by VENDOR fails to meet reasonable standards of the trade after CITY gives written notice to the VENDOR of the deficiencies as set forth in the written notice within fourteen
(14) calendar days of the receipt by VENDOR of such notice from CITY.

SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY. Nothing contained herein is intended to serve as a waiver of sovereign immunity by the CITY or as a waiver of limits of liability or rights the CITY may have under the doctrine of sovereign immunity or under Section 768.28, Florida Statutes.

TRUTH-IN-NEGOTIATION CERTIFICATE.

Execution of this Agreement by the VENDOR shall act as the execution of a truth-in-negotiation certificate certifying that the wage rates and costs used to determine the compensation provided for in this Agreement is accurate, complete, and current as of the date of the Agreement and no higher than those charged to the VENDOR’s most favored customer for the same or substantially similar service.

The said rates and cost shall be adjusted to exclude any significant sums should the CITY determine that the rates and costs were increased due to inaccurate, incomplete, or non-current wage rates or due to inaccurate representations of fees paid to outside vendors. The CITY shall exercise its rights under this “Certificate” within one (1) year following payment.

ENTITIES OF FOREIGN CONCERN. The provisions of this section apply only if Vendor or any subcontractor will have access to an individual’s personal identifying information under this Agreement. Vendor represents and certifies: (i) Vendor is not owned by the government of a foreign country of concern; (ii) the government of a foreign country of concern does not have a controlling interest in Vendor; and (iii) Vendor is not organized under the laws of and does not have its principal place of business in, a foreign country of concern. Prior to Vendor and any subcontractor having access to personal identifying information pursuant to this Agreement, Vendor and any subcontractor shall submit to City executed affidavit(s) under penalty of perjury, in a form approved by City attesting that the entity does not meet any of the criteria in Section 287.138(2), Florida Statutes. Compliance with the requirements of this section is included in the requirements of a proper invoice. Terms used in this section that are not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Section 287.138, Florida Statutes.
ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING. On or before the Effective Date of this Agreement, VENDOR shall provide CITY with an affidavit attesting that the VENDOR does not use coercion for labor or services, in accordance with Section 787.06(13), Florida Statutes.

SAMPLE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE (FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY)

Instructions: Performance evaluations shall be completed by the Project Manager for the following: (1) all Contracts; (2) all individual Work Orders. Work Orders with a term of six
(6) months or more at a minimum, the Project Manager shall complete performance evaluations at the mid-point of the project term or at more frequent intervals as required by the Work Order and at the time of Work Order or Contract completion.
It is especially important for the Project Manager to contact a Procurement representative to advise of any performance issues so that Procurement can assist with efforts to bring performance back to acceptable standards. It is equally important to complete this form whenever any of the performance indicators are either “marginal” or “unsatisfactory” even when this is not within the normal review cycle. In the event the Average Rating Score is “marginal” or “unsatisfactory” even after reasonable efforts have been taken by the City to improve performance, the Project Manager shall coordinate with Procurement to determine what action needs to be taken under the circumstances.
When completed, forward the evaluation form to Procurement. Procurement will keep track of the Average Rating Scores (Line 11) for all evaluations completed for the entire term of the Contract/Work Order. The completed Performance Evaluation form will be retained in Procurement and will be available as a record of current performance for use in the evaluation process of future solicitations released by the District. The completed evaluation is available to the contractor upon a Public Records request pursuant to Chapter 119, F.S.

Question 1:
When pricing the scenarios are we to include an estimated cost for density testing? Densities will be needed for some of these repairs but the line item is reimbursed based on actual cost so we cannot provide an exact cost for these items.

Answer 1:
All line items included in the scenarios labeled “actual cost reimbursement by the City” should be listed with an estimated cost.

Question 2:
Scenario #2 mentions restoration of 400 SF of FDOT approved Asphalt. Is this to be full depth asphalt restoration? Or is mill and pave to be included?

Answer 2:
Yes (full depth asphalt restoration). No milling and paving cost included.

Question 3:
Scenario 1 and 3 are at 16’ deep and 10’ deep respectively. Should we price the scenario using line items for 12’ to 16’ deep or 16’ to 20’ deep for scenario 1? For scenario 3 should we use the line item for 8’ to 10’ deep or 10’ to 12’ deep?

Answer 3:
For scenario 1, use line items for 16’ to 20’ deep. For scenario 3, use line item for 10’ to 12’ deep.
Question 4:
Scenario 4 does not mention a depth of pipe. Could one be provided so we can price appropriately?

Answer 4:
Depth 5 feet.

Question 5:
Scenario 4 mentions 1000 SF of asphalt, are we to assume this is all full depth restoration and 2 lifts? Any milling and paving?

Yes. Include milling and paving costs.

The supervision of the execution of this Contract is vested wholly in the Project Manager or his representative, and the orders of the City Commission and/or Utilities Director are to be given through him. The instructions of the Project Manager or his representative are to be strictly and promptly followed in every case. The Vendor may designate a foreman or other representative to receive such instructions in his absence, and failing to do so, he will be held responsible for the execution of any instructions it may be necessary to give in his absence. The Project Manager or his representative is to have free access to the materials and the work at all times for laying out, measuring, inspecting, or oversight of the same, and the Vendor is to afford him all necessary facilities and assistance for so doing.
To prevent all disputes and litigation, it is agreed by the parties hereto that the Utilities Director or City representative shall decide all questions, difficulties, and disputes of any nature which may arise relative to the interpretation of the specifications, construction, prosecution and fulfillment of the contract and task orders, and as to the character, quality, amount and value of any work done and materials furnished under or by reason of the Contract, and his estimates and decisions upon all claims, questions, and disputes shall be final and conclusive upon the parties hereto.
Time is an essential element of the contract and as delay in the execution of work will inconvenience and possibly endanger the public, obstruct traffic, and interfere with business, it is important that once work commences at any site, it be carried through to completion without delays or suspension of operations unless deemed to be necessary by the Project Manager or Inspector.
In the event any delays or suspension of operations occur, the City reserves the right to hire off-duty police, erect barricades, or take whatever actions are necessary to provide for the safety of the site. All costs involved in doing so shall be just claims against the Vendor or the Vendor’s Performance and Payment Bond. By submitting a bid, the Vendor agrees to the conditions as stated above.

PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS: The specifications and all other documentation that make up and constitute the contract shall be followed in strict accordance as to work, material, and dimensions except when the Utilities Project Manager may authorize in writing an exception. Measurement discrepancies shall be decided upon by the Utilities Project Manager or his representative and the Vendor shall not proceed when in doubt as to any dimension or measurement.

PERFORMANCE OF WORK:
The Vendor will furnish a qualified Superintendent who will be present at all times while work is being performed, and shall be authorized to act for the Vendor. The Vendor shall maintain sufficient plant, equipment, and labor on the job site to meet the requirements of the work.
Equipment shall be kept in a satisfactory operating condition and capable of safely and efficiently performing the work. All operations shall be subject to inspection by the Utilities Project Manager or his representative at all times. The Vendor shall submit for approval by the Utilities Project manager or his representative a description of the type of materials and equipment to be used; and to the method of procedure to be used in the performance of the work.
It is expressly understood that the Vendor is in all respects an independent Vendor for this work, notwithstanding that under certain conditions, he is bound to follow the directions of the Utilities Project Manager or his representative, and is in no respect and agent, servant or employee of the City.
Any performance or non-performance issues noted by the Project Manager or their representative(s) will be brought to the attention of the Vendor through the use of the Performance Evaluation Form, see Attachment ‘D’. The Project Manager or their representative(s) will conduct annual performance evaluations based on areas serviced under this contract/agreement.

RESTORATION OF PROPERTY: Property, public or private, if damaged during construction or removed for the convenience of the work shall be repaired or replaced at the expense of the Vendor in a manner acceptable to the Utilities Project Manager, prior to the final acceptance of the work. Such facilities shall include but are not limited to: signalization equipment and miscellaneous hardware removed from the construction site, driveways, walkways, walls, fences, mailboxes, sod, landscaping, irrigation systems, footings, or underground utilities.

DELAYS:
If the Vendor should be delayed in the progress of the work included in the Contract by unforeseeable causes beyond his control, the time for completion of the work may be extended by the Utilities Project Manager or his representative. Requests for extensions of time must be submitted in writing to the Utilities Project Manager or his representative within seven (7) days from the Vendor’s knowledge of a delay. Vendor shall not receive any compensation for additional time required to complete the work as a result of any delay.
The Vendor shall assume all risks resulting from delays except that should the City, by act or omission, intentionally and without reason, cause delays which result in actual loss to the Vendor. Reimbursement thereof may be adjusted and allowed by the City only after being notified in writing by the Vendor at the time of the delay and after being given an opportunity to verify such money losses as they occur. No payment or adjustment will be allowed to the Vendor as reimbursement for any other delays whatsoever; regardless of by what or by whom caused, even though by other Vendors on the same work, or by times, seasons, or weather; other than amounts provided in the Contract for payment which shall be understood to include and cover all risks due to delays except as stated in the foregoing.
If the Vendor fails to start the work within the time specified, and if the City should nevertheless permit the Vendor to continue and complete the same without official extension of time in writing, such permission shall not modify nor waive any liability of the Vendor for damages arising from non-completion of work within the time limit, but all such liabilities shall be subject to continuation in full force against the Vendor.
Liability of the Vendor will include any claim by any person for bodily or property damage after the Notice to Proceed was given for the requested work.

MATERIALS:
The Vendor shall provide the services of all workmen, mechanics, tradesmen, and other employees trained and skilled in their various occupations and all materials and equipment. The request for work to be performed will require the Vendor to supply all labor, equipment, materials and work incidental to, or described or implied as incidental to, the construction included under this Contract, notwithstanding any omission in the drawings or specifications.
Wherever not explicitly described, materials and workmanship of every kind shall be in keeping with industry standards. The Vendor shall perform his work in proper sequence to the work or other Vendors and to acts or operations of the City, and shall properly join his work to existing or new construction.
All materials and every process and operation of manufacture, construction and erection shall be subject to inspection at all times, and the Utilities Project Manager or his representatives and their representatives shall have free access to all parts of the work of construction and erection. The Vendor shall remove, reconstruct, replace, and make good, as may be directed, without charge, any defective work. Oversight or error or judgment of inspectors, or previous acceptance, shall not relieve the Vendor from the obligation to make good defects whenever discovered.

FINAL CLEAN-UP:
Upon completion of the work specified herein, and before acceptance of any part thereof, and any payment made to include final payment, the Vendor shall remove from the site completed, all machinery, equipment surplus, and discarded materials and temporary structures. The disposal of all materials, rubbish, and construction debris shall be made at a legal disposal site or by other manner if prior approval is granted by the Project Manager. Materials cleared from the site and deposited on the adjacent or nearby property will not be considered as having been disposed of properly.

Christian….

Sorry for the delay….

At the recommendation of Jim Anderson, we are proposing to re-acidize the well to improve its productivity. The attached quote represents just the fee from Centerline to conduct the acidization. In addition, we would be looking at the following charges:

Acidization - $13,222
Additional pump test set up and operation – 8 hrs @ $275/ hr - $2,200

Markup - $1,542
Engineer’s Time – 16 hrs @ $98.88 / hr - $1,582.08 Admin Time – 2 hrs @ $82.50 / hr - $165

Total - $18,711

Our remaining allowance is $15,000. I can prepare a change order (for the difference) and have it ready for November. In addition, we are willing to accept a handshake deal so that we can move forward and get this well back into service before the change order is approved.

Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

WORK AUTHORIZATION
CSID WA No. 246
Globaltech No. 151450

Pursuant to the provisions contained in the "Contract for Professional Engineering Consulting and Design-Build Services on a Continuing Contract Basis " between the CORAL SPRINGS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, hereinafter referred to as "OWNER", and  Globaltech, Inc., hereinafter referred to as "FIRM", dated July 1, 2012	(hereinafter referred to as "AGREEMENT"), this Work Authorization authorizes the FIRM to provide services under the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the AGREEMENT, which is incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in full.

The OWNER desires design-build services related to the Digester 1 Blower Replacement, hereinafter referred to as the “Specific Project”.

Section 1 – Terms
FIRM shall be defined as an individual, corporation or contractor having a direct contract with the OWNER or with any other subcontractor in the performance of a part of the work contracted for under the terms of this Work Authorization with the OWNER.

Section 2 – Scope of Work

The existing blowers at the Coral Springs Improvement District WWTP Digester 1 are obsolete and spare parts can no longer be obtained through the blower vendor. In addition, the current blowers do not have sufficient adjustability and often must be turned off to avoid over-aerating the biosolids which is an inefficient strategy when compared to automatic speed adjustment. Routinely turning off the blowers has exacerbated the issue with diffuser clogging. It is OWNER’s desire to have FIRM replace the three (3) existing blowers with new variable

speed blowers sized to minimize having to turn them off to avoid under or over aerating.

The requested work will be completed by implementing the following two tasks:

Task 1 – Engineering Services
This task includes project management and engineering services required to complete the project. A related project “CSID Digester 1 Blower Replacement Preliminary Engineering” was completed by Globaltech that provided a technical memorandum (TM) and evaluation of the existing Digester No. 1 operation and blower system. The recommendations included in the TM was used to size the blowers included in this Work Authorization.

Engineering and Project Management
Attend preliminary scoping meetings with the OWNER to assist in preliminary design parameters and overall scope.
Prepare detailed construction schedule to include as a minimum; design, site mobilization, detailed construction activities, scheduled shutdowns and durations, equipment/material delivery times, testing, and startup and commissioning.
Prepare and submit a preliminary set of design drawings and specifications. Meet with the OWNER to discuss their comments.
Incorporate the OWNER’s comments into a 60% design set of drawings and specifications. Submit the 60% design to the OWNER for review.
Incorporate the OWNER’s comments into a Final Design set of drawings and specifications.
Coordinate material and equipment purchase and suppliers.
Review, administer, and track equipment submittals.
Schedule and conduct meetings, inspections, and testing with OWNER’s staff.

Attend progress meetings and coordination meetings.
Oversee construction activities.
Conduct Substantial Completion inspection. Develop punch-list items in association with OWNER.
Prepare and submit Record Drawings.
Compile a project Operations and Maintenance (O&M) manual for the OWNER.
Conduct startup with the blower package technician present.
Conduct Final Completion inspection meeting and site walk through with OWNER.

Task 2 – Construction Services
The work, in general consists of the following:

Construct three (3) new concrete equipment pedestals for the new blowers’ footprint on top of the existing concrete slab.
Installation of three (3) new blowers, each housed in its own weather insulated, high-wind-rated (186 mph) enclosure. The blowers will be manufactured by United Blower Pac or an OWNER approved equal. The blower footprint will be 56” x 90”.
Replacement of the existing carbon steel discharge manifold piping, valves, and pipe supports up to the existing stainless-steel piping with new 316 stainless steel pipe, valves and supports.
Installation of new VFD panels, blower control panel, and complete all associated electrical connections. The existing disconnect supports will be reused. The existing starter enclosures are not large enough to accommodate the new VFD. The new VFDs will be provided with new enclosures. The new VFDs will be manufactured by Schneider Altivar or an OWNER approved equal.
Install a new Master Control Panel (MCP) with a NEMA 4X 304 stainless steel enclosure (72”H x 36”W x 12”D). It will use Allen-Bradley

CompactLogix PLCs and a 7” HMI with ethernet. This panel will be connected via fiber to the plant SCADA network.
Install a new air flow meter accessible from ground level on the common air piping. Integrate this air flow meter into the SCADA system. The new flowmeter shall be manufactured be Endress+Hauser or an OWNER approved equal.
Removal and disposal of the existing blower packages and piping.
Conduct start-up.
Clean up and demobilize.

Assumptions

Assumptions for the project are as follows:

The OWNER will operate all existing valves.
No DEP permits are required.
No Building Department permits are required.
Working hours will be Monday through Friday from approximately 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM.
The new VFDs will be located inside an existing air-conditioned room and no new yard conduits will be required. Existing yard conduits will be reused with new wire.
The scope does not include any structural modifications except for a new maintenance pad poured on top of the existing foundation pad.
The scope does not include any underground mechanical or electrical installations.
Total project fee includes a construction allowance of $50,000 for unforeseen conditions or additional work. If needed, access to the allowance will be authorized in writing by OWNER prior to obligating funds. Unspent allowance will be returned to OWNER through a project change order at the conclusion of the project.

Section 3 – Location

The services to be performed by the FIRM shall be at the CSID Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Section 4 – Deliverables
The FIRM will provide the following Deliverables to OWNER:

Preliminary, 60% and Final Design Drawings.
Submittals for materials/equipment.

On the terms contained in the FIRM’s said proposal for the doing of said work and the said award therefore, and the specifications herein specifically referred to and made a part of this contract.
The cost for the above scope of services is a lump sum (LS). The LS is based on the materials, methods, and assumptions presented in the scope of services and may be adjusted based on final detail design and alternative selections or omissions. The LS shall not be greater than the stated amount unless there is an approved increase in the scope of services.
An allowance of $50,000 is included in the total fee. The allowance will not be accessed without approval by OWNER. Unused allowance will be returned at the completion of the project.
A Budget Summary for the above LS is provided in Attachment A.

Section 7 – Application for Progress Payment
Unless otherwise prescribed by law, at the end of each month, the FIRM shall submit to the OWNER for review, an Application for Progress Payment filled out and signed by the FIRM covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the AGREEMENT.
The Application for Progress Payment shall identify the amount of the FIRM Total Earnings to Date based upon value of original contract Work performed to date as approved by fully executed Change Orders.
Payment shall be based upon percentage of work completed based upon the approved schedule of values. Retainage in the amount of 5% will be withheld on the calculated value of any work, with the exception of stored materials which may be paid at the supplier's invoiced cost. At FIRM's request, after 50% completion of the work has been achieved, the OWNER will implement a reduction in retainage to 2.5% of all future pay requests. If retainage is reduced, FIRM may not withhold more than 2.5% retainage from subcontractors or suppliers and will be required to certify compliance with F.S. 218.70 et seq on each subsequent pay application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no instance can the amount retained be

less than the value of OWNER's good faith claims plus the value of the work the OWNER determines remains to be put in place or required to be performed as remedial activities. For the purposes of this section, 50% completion shall be that point in time when OWNER determines that half of the Work required by the Contract has been completed. In no event shall the Work be determined to be 50% completed before the OWNER has paid 50% of the Contract amount and 50% of the Contract time has expired. The amount of previous Pay Estimate payments shall then be subtracted to equal the Balance Due during the Pay Estimate period.
When the OWNER reduces the retainage to two and one-half percent (2.5%), FIRM must obtain the written consent of the Surety Companies furnishing the required Public Construction Bond on consent forms provided by the OWNER. The OWNER may reinstate the retainage up to five percent (5%) if the OWNER determines, at its discretion, that the FIRM is not making satisfactory progress toward final completion of the Work or where there is other specific cause for such withholding.
Partial payment may be made for the delivered cost of stored materials planned for incorporation into the Work, provided such materials meet the requirements of this Contract, the Contract Drawings, and the Specifications, and are delivered and suitably stored at the project site, or at another location acceptable to the OWNER. Such material must be stored in a secure manor acceptable to the OWNER, and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
The delivered cost of such stored or stockpiled materials may be included in any subsequent application for payment provided the FIRM meets the following conditions:
An applicable purchase order or supplier's invoice is provided listing the materials in detail, the cost of each item, and identifies this specific contract by name.

The materials are fully insured against loss or damage (from whatever source) or disappearance prior to incorporation into the Work.
Stored materials approved for payment by the OWNER shall not be removed from the designated storage area except for incorporation into the Work.
Evidence that the FIRM has verified quantity and quality of the materials delivered (verified packing list).
It is further agreed between the parties that the transfer of title and the OWNER's payment for any stored or stockpiled materials pursuant to these General Conditions, and any applicable provisions of the Supplementary General Conditions, shall in no way relieve the FIRM of the responsibility of ensuring the correctness of those materials and for furnishing and placing such materials in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, the Contract Drawings, the Technical Specifications, and any approved changes thereto.

WORK AUTHORIZATION
CSID WA No. 247
Globaltech No. 151525

Pursuant to the provisions contained in the "Contract for Professional Engineering Consulting and Design-Build Services on a Continuing Contract Basis" between the CORAL SPRINGS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, hereinafter referred to as "OWNER", and  Globaltech, Inc., hereinafter referred to as "FIRM", dated July 1, 2012 (hereinafter referred to as "AGREEMENT"), this Work Authorization authorizes the FIRM to provide services under the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the AGREEMENT, which is incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in full.

The OWNER desires design-build services related to the Improvements to Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Package Plant F, hereinafter referred to as the “Specific Project”.

Section 1 – Terms
FIRM shall be defined as an individual, corporation or contractor having a direct contract with the OWNER or with any other subcontractor in the performance of a part of the work contracted for under the terms of this Work Authorization (WA) with the OWNER.

Section 2 – Scope of Work

WWTP Package Plant F is located within the wastewater treatment plant and is scheduled to be removed from service for routine maintenance. To facilitate the maintenance activities, OWNER has requested that FIRM install maintenance hatches (manways) into the steel tanks (both exterior and interior walls) to facilitate access and to improve safety. Maintenance hatches will be constructed as large as possible fitting within the constraints of the existing tanks (nominal 48” x 48”

openings on the exterior tank and 36” x 36” on the interior tank). A total of three
(3) hatches will be installed; two in the 131-foot diameter exterior tank accessing the aeration basin and digester and one in the 75-foot diameter inner tank accessing the clarifier. Proposed openings will be evaluated and designed by a licensed structural engineer. Installation of maintenance hatches provides several functions including providing ease of access, a safer working environment for staff, and significantly reducing costs during future maintenance activities.

FIRM has been requested to replace the fine bubble diffusers within the aeration basin while the tank is out of service. It is assumed that the diffusers will be removed and replaced in-kind with Sanitaire 9-inch membrane discs. A total of 672 membranes and restraining rings will be installed. In addition, O-rings will be replaced during the removal and replacement of end-caps.

While the plant is out of service, FIRM will subcontract a NACE/AAMP-certified coating inspector to inspect the structural steel, welds and coatings. The certified inspector will visually inspect the interior and exterior of the tanks and coatings to evaluate the condition of the structural members and coatings. Inspection services may include removal and destructive testing of small portions of either the steel or coatings, which may require repair. FIRM will conduct repairs resulting from the destructive testing. A report summarizing the conditional assessment of the structure and coatings will be prepared, providing recommendations and options for future coatings and rehabilitative projects.

To address the recommendations provided by the NACE/AAMP-certified coating inspector, FIRM will review recommendations with OWNER, access the Allowance for Structural Repairs and then subcontract a certified welder and coatings specialist to perform the required basin remediation work.

The project will be executed by completing the following tasks:

Task 1 – Project Coordination and Engineering
This task includes project coordination and engineering services required to complete the project.

Project Coordination
Attend preliminary scoping meetings with the OWNER to discuss preliminary design parameters and overall scope.
Collect and review structural plans for Package Plant F.
Collect pre-construction photographs of the construction areas and tank.
Prepare subcontract for structural engineer.
Coordinate construction sequencing with OWNER.
Prepare subcontract for metals fabricator.
Schedule and conduct meetings, construction, inspections, and testing with OWNER.
Prepare subcontract for certified welder / coatings subcontractor.
Oversee installation and coating of hatches by metals fabricator.
Oversee basin remediation work performed by certified welder / coatings subcontractor.
Coordinated inspection and testing services.
Prepare purchase order for fine bubble diffusers.
Oversee installation of diffusers.
Oversee startup services for diffusers.
Conduct walkthrough with OWNER to review final installation.
Close out project and provide OWNER with record drawings.

Engineering

A structural engineer will be subcontracted to prepare engineering drawings for the three maintenance hatches. The hatches will be designed as large as possible (nominally 48” x 48” (exterior tank) and 36” x 36” (interior tank)) while accommodating the tanks’ structural constraints. FIRM will coordinate engineering design and review the Structural Engineer’s plans with respect to constructability

and meeting OWNER’s goals. FIRM will provide drawings of proposed structural modifications for OWNER’s review and record drawings following the completion of construction services.

FIRM will subcontract steel and coatings inspection services to a NACE/AAMP-certified specialist. FIRM will coordinate inspection services, approve destructive testing (if necessary), review summary report, and make prioritized recommendations to OWNER to implement proposed repairs.

During the construction phase, FIRM will replace the fine bubble diffusers. FIRM will inspect headers, drop-pipes and manifolds for overall condition and need for maintenance / replacement. FIRM will oversee installation of new diffuser membranes and startup services following specifications provided by manufacturer. Startup services will include a “wet-check” to ensure proper diffuser operation during a partially filled tank.

During the construction phase, FIRM will inspect the coarse bubble diffusers. FIRM will inspect headers, drop-pipes and manifolds for overall condition and need for maintenance / replacement. FIRM will oversee startup services.

Task 2 – Construction Services

Construction services will include the installation of three new maintenance hatches, installation of new fine bubble diffuser membranes, minor cleaning and inspection of the existing coarse bubble diffusers.

Construction services will include and be implemented through the following tasks:

Maintenance Hatch Installation
Work with OWNER to identify optimum location to install the hatches.
Cut and remove square hatches on both the inner and outer tank walls.

Weld ¼ thick reinforcing plates on the sides and above the opening. It is anticipated that the reinforcing plates will extend 4-feet beyond the opening on three sides (top and two sides) and be installed on the inner tank wall.
Provide and weld C-channel frame onto the outside wall of both the inner and external tanks. The channel will be outfitted with 5/8-inch diameter bolt located 2-inches on center.
Clean and remove loose and damaged paint. Loose and damaged paint will be removed in the areas surrounding the new hatches for a distance of 1-foot beyond new work. Paint will be removed by mechanical grinding to bare steel using mechanical grinding / scraping.
Prime tank extending 1-foot beyond damaged areas (both sides of tank).
Paint damaged area extending 1-foot beyond damaged areas (both sides of tank). OWNER to provide final exterior coat paint to match existing.
Provide, paint and install nominal 36” x 36” and 48” x 48” steel hatch covers. Hatch covers will be mounted to tank wall using fabricated hinges attached to the hatch frame.
Install neoprene gaskets.
Provide and install 1.75-inch x 0.5-inch diameter stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers.

Fine Bubble Diffuser Installation
Following the installation of the maintenance hatches, OWNER will remove and clean diffusers within the aeration basin. FIRM will assist OWNER with inspection of the airline header, drop lines, manifolds, and pipe mounts. If damage is identified, it will be reviewed with OWNER to determine an acceptable approach for making repairs. Funding for repairs will be made through the general construction allowance. Diffuser membranes will be replaced in the following sequence:
OWNER to remove diffuser restraining rings and airline end caps.
OWNER to clean airlines using potable water.

Install new Sanitaire 9-inch diffuser membranes per manufacturer’s guidelines.
Replace existing O-rings with new ones of matching size and material.
Inspect end-caps and replace them if necessary.
Install restraining ring on each diffuser body. Damaged restraining rings and base plates will be replaced. It is assumed that 20% of restraining rings and base plates will be replaced as part of base cost estimate.
Fill the Digester with approximately 24-inches of clean water.
Turn on and adjust air to low volume to flush header pipe.
Check diffusers for uniform air production and leaks.
If leaks are found, make repairs and retest.

Coarse Bubble Diffuser Cleaning and Repair
Approximately 75 membrane tube diffusers are located within the digester portion of Plant F. It is anticipated that the diffusers will be covered with rags and other debris. The following tasks will be performed:
OWNER to pressure wash diffusers to clean and remove external debris.
Inspect piping for damage.
FIRM will repair piping connection of the single tube diffuser that are visibly separated from air-line header. Minor repairs only.
FIRM will conduct testing of tube diffusers under partially filled tank.
Assist OWNER with diagnostics and repair of non-functioning diffusers.

Corrosion Remediation
Based on the results of the structural inspection, additional rehabilitation activities may be considered including spot re-coating of corrosion and repair of paint blistering on the interior tank walls, rehabilitation of perimeter walkway supports, and rehabilitation of the main bridge supports. If additional rehabilitation services are required, access to the Construction Allowance for Structural Repairs will

be requested. Based on the work that was performed on Plant E, the following services may be necessary:
Remove all loose, blistered, and peeling areas of the existing coal tar epoxy coating on the Aeration Basin walls to expose the underlying primer and recoat the prepared surfaces with a two-part coal tar epoxy.
Clean and remove all rust and loose material from the clarifier circular walkway supports, then apply a new coating of coal tar epoxy to all prepared surfaces.
Remove grating and post mounts from the Main Bridge in sections. Prepare and clean rusted and deteriorated areas, apply two-part epoxy coating to all exposed surfaces, and reinstall grating and post mounts after coating application.

Assumptions
Assumptions for the project are as follows:
OWNER is responsible for emptying and cleaning Package Plant F.
Inspection of the tank steel and coatings will be conducted by Corrosion Probe, Inc. (CPI), by a licensed inspector.
Should CPI recommend any significant testing other than visual inspection or coating removal, the test plan and cost will be reviewed with OWNER. Costs for additional testing if approved will be provided through the general construction allowance.
Should CPI recommend maintenance or repair work beyond what is included in this scope of work, FIRM will discuss with OWNER and develop a prioritized approach. FIRM will coordinate any agreed upon repairs which will be funded through the Construction Allowance for Structural Repairs.
OWNER will be responsible for all debris disposal.
Painting of maintenance hatches will be performed by field fabricator. FIRM will not provide painting inspection services for new coatings;

coatings will only be evaluated visually. Coating thicknesses will be evaluated by FIRM.
OWNER will provide paint for final exterior coating. Newly painted exterior coatings will most likely vary from existing surfaces due to age, fading and weathering.
Repair coatings are not warrantied due to limited areas of repair and condition of adjacent coatings.
OWNER will remove diffuser membranes and clean diffuser bodies in preparation for FIRM to install new fine diffuser membranes.
OWNER will remove end-caps and clean air lines.
It is assumed that diffuser bodies will remain in place; only diffuser membranes will be replaced. It is assumed that 20% of the restraining rings and base plates below the membranes will be replaced. This is included in the base cost estimate.
OWNER to pressure clean coarse bubble diffusers.
Working hours will be Monday through Friday from approximately 7:00 AM until 5:00 PM.
Building permits are not required for work as this is considered maintenance on existing equipment.
A General Construction Allowance of $40,000 is provided in the construction budget to potentially cover repairs to air piping or other items associated with this project. FIRM will notify and request access to construction allowance from OWNER before funds are obligated. Unspent funds will be returned to OWNER.

7 – Application for Progress Payment
Unless otherwise prescribed by law, at the end of each month, the FIRM shall submit to the OWNER for review an Application for Progress Payment filled out and signed by the FIRM covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the AGREEMENT.
The Application for Progress Payment shall identify the amount of the FIRM Total Earnings to Date based upon value of original contract Work performed to date as approved by fully executed Change Orders.
Payment shall be based upon percentage of work completed based upon the approved schedule of values. Retainage in the amount of 5% will be withheld on the calculated value of any work, with the exception of stored materials which may be paid at the supplier's invoiced cost. At FIRM's request, after 50% completion of the work has been achieved, the OWNER will implement a reduction in retainage to 2.5% of all future pay requests. If retainage is reduced, FIRM may not withhold more than 2.5% retainage from subcontractors or suppliers and will be required to certify compliance with F.S. 218.70 et seq on each subsequent pay application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no instance can the amount retained be less than the value of OWNER's good faith claims plus the value of the work the OWNER determines remains to be put in place or required to be performed as remedial activities. For the purposes of this section, 50% completion shall be that point in time when OWNER determines that half of the Work required by the Contract has been completed. In no event shall

the Work be determined to be 50% completed before the OWNER has paid 50% of the Contract amount and 50% of the Contract time has expired. The amount of previous Pay Estimate payments shall then be subtracted to equal the Balance Due during the Pay Estimate period.
When the OWNER reduces the retainage to two and one-half percent (2.5%), FIRM must obtain the written consent of the Surety Companies furnishing the required Public Construction Bond on consent forms provided by the OWNER. The OWNER may reinstate the retainage up to five percent (5%) if the OWNER determines, at its discretion, that the FIRM is not making satisfactory progress toward final completion of the Work or where there is other specific cause for such withholding.
Partial payment may be made for the delivered cost of stored materials planned for incorporation into the Work, provided such materials meet the requirements of this Contract, the Contract Drawings, and the Specifications, and are delivered and suitably stored at the project site, or at another location acceptable to the OWNER. Such material must be stored in a secure manor acceptable to the OWNER, and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
The delivered cost of such stored or stockpiled materials may be included in any subsequent application for payment provided the FIRM meets the following conditions:
An applicable purchase order or supplier's invoice is provided listing the materials in detail, the cost of each item, and identifies this specific contract by name.
The materials are fully insured against loss or damage (from whatever source) or disappearance prior to incorporation into the Work.
Stored materials approved for payment by the OWNER shall not be removed from the designated storage area except for incorporation into the Work.

Evidence that the FIRM has verified quantity and quality of the materials delivered (verified packing list).
It is further agreed between the parties that the transfer of title and the OWNER's payment for any stored or stockpiled materials pursuant to these General Conditions, and any applicable provisions of the Supplementary General Conditions, shall in no way relieve the FIRM of the responsibility of ensuring the correctness of those materials and for furnishing and placing such materials in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, the Contract Drawings, the Technical Specifications, and any approved changes thereto.
The following monthly Application for Progress Payment shall be accompanied by Bills of Sale, copies of paid invoices, releases of lien, or other documentation warranting that the FIRM has received the stored materials and equipment free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests, and encumbrances (which are hereinafter in these General Conditions referred to as "Liens") and evidence that the stored materials and equipment are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect the OWNER's interest therein, all of which shall be satisfactory to the OWNER.
