CITY OF EVERETT SPECIAL PROVISIONS Greely St. Water Quality Retrofit Division 1 – GENERAL REQUIREMENTS January 2026 WO No. UP3817 SP – 111 more than 14 calendar days before the date the Engineer receives the Contractor’s written Notice. The Engineer will issue a Written Determination to the Contractor and adjust payment and time in accordance with this section, if warranted. If the Contractor does not agree with the Written Determination, then the Contractor may pursue remedies in accordance with Section 1-04.5 and Section 1-09.11. The Contractor shall keep full and complete records of the costs and additional time of such suspension, delay, or interruption and shall permit the Engineer to have access to those records and any other records as may be deemed necessary by the Engineer to assist in evaluating the Notice. The Engineer will determine if an equitable adjustment in cost or time is due as provided in this section. The equitable adjustment for increase in costs, if due, shall be subject to the limitations provided in Section 1-09.4, provided that no profit of any kind will be allowed on increases in costs caused by the suspension, delay, or interruption. Request for extensions of time will be evaluated in accordance with Section 1-08.8. The Engineer’s determination as to whether an adjustment should be made will be final. By failing to follow procedures of Section 1-04.5 and Section 1-9.11, the Contractor completely waives claims for protested Work. 1-08.6(1) Suspension Procedures (******) The City may, at its convenience and at any time and without cause, suspend all or any part of the Work by notice in writing to the Contractor. The Contractor will be allowed an increase in the Contract Sum or an extension of Contract Time, or both, directly attributable to any suspension in accordance with the Change Order procedures in these Special Provisions; provided, (1) the Contractor shall not be entitled to any increase to the extent caused by the Contractor and (2) Contract Sum increases and Contract Time extensions for suspension caused by Third Parties or Force Majeure Events are limited as set forth in 1-09.11A(3)D THIRD PARTY CAUSED DELAYS AND FORCE MAJEURE. The Contractor shall resume the Work within five (5) calendar days after receiving written notice from the City to do so. 1-08.7 Maintenance During Suspension Delete all of 1-08.7 and substitute the following: Before and during any suspension (as described in Section 1-08.6) the Contractor shall protect the Work from damage or deterioration. Suspension shall not relieve the Contractor from anything the Contract requires unless this Section states otherwise. At no expense to the City, the Contractor shall provide through the construction area a safe, smooth, and unobstructed roadway, sidewalk, and path for public use during suspension, as required in 1-07.23 PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY. This may require a temporary road or detour. If the Engineer determines that the Contractor failed to pursue the Work diligently before the suspension, or failed to comply with the Contract or orders, then the Contractor shall maintain the temporary roadway, sidewalk, and path in use during suspension. In this case, the Contractor shall bear the maintenance costs. If the Contractor fails to maintain the temporary roadway, sidewalk, and path the City will do the Work and deduct all resulting costs from payments due to the Contractor. If the Engineer determines that the Contractor has pursued the Work diligently before the suspension, then the City will maintain the temporary roadway, sidewalk, and path (and bear its cost). This City-provided maintenance work will include only routine maintenance of: 1. The Traveled Way, Auxiliary Lanes, Shoulders, detour surface, sidewalks, and paths,
