Section 00 72 00 GENERAL CONDITIONS City of Everett 00 72 00-6 June 2024 WFP Air Scour Blower Building Replacement Issued for Bid UP3813 These parts complement each other in describing the complete Work. Any requirement in one part binds as if stated in all parts. The Contractor shall provide any work or materials clearly implied in the Contract even if the Contract does not mention it specifically. Any inconsistency in the parts of the Contract shall be referred to the Owner’s Representative attention for a determination of the intended requirements. The Work required in one part must be furnished even if not mentioned in other parts of the Contract. If any part of the Contract requires Work that does not include a description for how the Work is to be performed, the Work shall be performed in accordance with standard trade practice(s). For purposes of the Contract, a standard trade practice is one having such regularity of observance in the trade as to justify an expectation that the Contractor will follow or observe the practice in performing the Work. In case of any ambiguity, disagreement or Dispute over interpreting the Contract, the Owner’s Representative’s decision will be final as provided in these General Conditions. Approved Shop Drawings, other Contractor’s Submittals, and the reports and drawings of subsurface and physical conditions are not Contract Documents. 2. SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS 2.1. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS The Specifications and Drawings are intended to be explanatory and supportive of each other. Work specified on the Drawings and not in the Specifications, or vice versa, shall be executed as if specified in both. In the event the Work to be done or matters relative thereto are not sufficiently detailed or explained in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall immediately ask the Owner’s Representative for further explanation and shall comply with such explanation. In the event of doubt or question arising respecting the true meaning of the Specifications or Drawings, Contractor shall refer to the Owner’s Representative for his or her decision. The Specifications may vary in form, format and style. Some specification sections are written in varying degrees of streamlined or declarative style and some sections may be relatively narrative by comparison. Omissions of such words and phrases as "the Contractor shall," "in conformity with," "as shown," or "as specified" are intentional in streamlined sections. Omitted words and phrases shall be supplied by inference. Similar types of provisions may appear in various parts of a section or articles within a part depending on the format of the section. The Contractor shall not take advantage of any variation of form, format or style in making claims for extra Work. The cross referencing of specification sections under the subparagraph heading "Related Sections include but are not necessarily limited to:" and elsewhere within each specification section is provided as an aid and convenience to the Contractor. The Contractor shall not rely on the cross referencing provided and shall be responsible to coordinate the entire Work under the Contract Documents and provide a complete Project whether or not the cross referencing is provided in each section or whether or not the cross referencing is complete. Reference to standards, specifications, manuals, or codes of any technical society, organization, or association, or to Laws or Regulations, whether such reference be specific or by implication, shall mean the standard, specification, manual, code, or Laws or Regulations in effect at the time of opening of Bids (or on the Effective Date of the Agreement if there were no Bids), except as may be otherwise specifically stated in the Contract Documents. No provision of a standard, specification, manual or code, or an instruction of a Supplier shall be effective to change the duties or responsibilities of Owner, Contractor, or Owner’s Representative, or their Subcontractors, consultants, agents, or employees from those set forth in the Contract Documents. No such provision or instruction shall be effective to assign to
