CITY OF EVERETT SPECIAL PROVISIONS 3rd Ave Water Quality Facility Division 1 – GENERAL REQUIREMENTS September 20, 2024 WO No – UP3775 SP – 98 falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday shall be counted a nonworking day. The days between December 25 and January 1 will be classified as nonworking days. An unworkable day is defined as a half or whole day the Engineer declares to be unworkable because of weather or conditions caused by the weather that prevents satisfactory and timely performance of the Work shown on the critical path of the Contractor’s approved progress schedule. Other conditions beyond the control of the Contractor may qualify for an extension of time in accordance with Section 1-08.8. Contract Time shall begin on the effective date of the Notice to Proceed. The Contract Documents may specify another starting date for Contract Time, in which case, Contract Time will begin on the starting date the Contract Documents specify. Each working day shall be charged to the Contract as it occurs, beginning on the effective date of the Notice to Proceed, unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, until the Contract Work is physically complete. Each week the Engineer will provide the Contractor a statement that shows the number of working days: (1) charged to the Contract the week before; (2) specified for the physical completion of the Contract; and (3) remaining for the physical completion of the Contract. The statement will also show the nonworking days and partial or whole day the Engineer declares as unworkable. Within 14 calendar days after the date of each statement, the Contractor shall file a written protest of any alleged discrepancies in it. To be considered by the Engineer, the protest shall be in sufficient detail to enable the Engineer to ascertain the basis and amount of time disputed. By not filing such detailed protest in that period, the Contractor shall be deemed as having accepted the statement as correct. If the Contractor elects to work ten hours a day and four days a week (a 4-10 schedule) and the fifth day of the week in which a 4-10 shift is worked would ordinarily be charged as a working day then the fifth day of that week will be charged as a working day whether or not the Contractor works on that day. The Engineer will give the Contractor written notice of the Physical Completion Date for all Work the Contract requires. That date shall constitute the Physical Completion Date of the Contract, but shall not imply the City’s acceptance of the Work or the Contract. The Engineer will give the Contractor written notice of the Completion Date of the Contract after all the Contractor’s obligations under the Contract have been performed by the Contractor. The following events must occur before the Completion Date can be established: 1. The physical Work on the project must be complete; and 2. The Contractor shall furnish all documentation required by the Contract and required by law, to allow the City to process final acceptance of the Contract. The following documents must be received by the Engineer prior to establishing a Completion Date: a. Certified payrolls. b. Material Acceptance Certification Documents. c. Annual Report of Amounts Paid as MBE/WBE Participants. d. Final Contractor Voucher Certification. e. Copies of the approved “Affidavit of Prevailing Wages Paid” for the Contractor and all Subcontractors. f.
