performs or furnishes the Work, at whatever tier,
will be paid a fee of fifteen percent of the costs

Price. Determinations of the actual quantities and
classifications of Unit Price Work performed by
CONTRACTOR will be made by ENGINEER in
accordance with paragraph 9.10.

CONTRACTOR shall include, but not be limited to, acts
or neglect by OWNER, acts or neglect of utility owners or
other contractors performing other work as contemplated

deemed to be delays within the control of CONTRACTOR.
12.4. Where CONTRACTOR is prevented from
completing any part of the Work within the Contract Times
(or Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both
OWNER and CONTRACTOR, an extension of the
Contract Times (or Milestones) in an amount equal to the
time lost due to such delay shall be CONTRACTOR's sole
and exclusive remedy for such delay. In no event shall
OWNER be liable to CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor,
any Supplier, any other person or organization, or to any
surety for or employee or agent of any of them, for
damages arising out of or resulting from (i) delays caused
by or within the control of the CONTRACTOR, or

replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to
ENGINEER's recommendation of final payment, also
ENGINEER) prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so.
CONTRACTOR shall pay all claims, costs, losses and
damages attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and
determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to
be approved by ENGINEER as to reasonableness). If any
such acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER's
recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be
issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the
Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and
OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to
the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor
as provided in Article 11. If the acceptance occurs after
such recommendation, an appropriate amount will be paid

OWNER May Correct Defective Work.
13.14. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
after written notice from ENGINEER to correct defective
Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required

to comply with any other provision of the Contract
Documents, OWNER may, after seven days' written
notice to CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such
deficiency. In exercising the rights and remedies under

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 OWNER has paid
CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere.
CONTRACTOR shall allow OWNER, OWNER's
representatives, agents and employees, OWNER's other
contractors and ENGINEER and ENGINEER's
Consultants access to the site to enable OWNER to
exercise the rights and remedies under this paragraph. All
claims, costs, losses and damages incurred or sustained by
OWNER in exercising such rights and remedies will be
charged against CONTRACTOR and a Change Order will
be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the
Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and
OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to
the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor
as provided in Article 11. Such claims, costs, losses and
damages will include but not be limited to all costs of
repair or replacement of work of others destroyed or
damaged by correction, removal or replacement of
CONTRACTOR's defective Work. CONTRACTOR shall
not be allowed an extension of the Contract Times (or
Milestones) because of any delay in performance of the
Work attributable to the exercise by OWNER of OWNER's
rights and remedies hereunder.
ARTICLE 14—PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND
COMPLETION
Schedule of Values:
14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in
paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments

Payment acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments on
account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of
units completed.
Application for Progress Payment:
14.2. At least twenty days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for
review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by
CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the
date of the Application and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as is required by the Contract
Documents. If payment is requested on the basis of
materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work but
delivered and suitably stored at the site or at another
location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment
shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other
documentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and
evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by
appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to
protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which will be
satisfactory to OWNER. The amount of retainage with
respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the
Agreement. Any funds that are withheld by the OWNER
shall not be subject to substitution by the CONTRACTOR
with securities or any arrangements involving an escrow or
custodianship. By executing the application for payment

benefits of Colorado Revised Statutes, Section 24-91-101
et sea.
CONTRACTOR's Warranty of Title:
14.3. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any

each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Edition)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
recommendation of payment and present the Application
to OWNER, or return the Application to CONTRACTOR
indicating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR
may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the
Application. Ten days after presentation of the
Application for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's
recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject
to the provisions of the last sentence of paragraph 14.7)
become due and when due will be paid by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR.
14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a
representation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on
ENGINEER's on -site observations of the executed Work
as an experienced and qualified design professional and on
ENGINEER's review of the Application for Payment and
the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of
ENGINEER's knowledge, information and belief

of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Documents, to a final determination of quantities and
classifications for Unit Price Work under
paragraph 9.10, and to any other qualifications stated
in the recommendation), and
14.5.3. the conditions precedent to
CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment
appear to have been fulfilled insofar as it is
ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work.
However, by recommending any such payment
ENGINEER will not thereby be deemed to have
represented that: (i) exhaustive or continuous on -site
inspections have been made to check the quality or the
quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities
specifically assigned to ENGINEER in the Contract
Documents or (ii) that there may not be other matters or
issues between the parties that might entitle
CONTRACTOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or
entitle OWNER to withhold payment to CONTRACTOR.
14.6. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment,
including final payment, shall not mean that ENGINEER
is responsible for CONTRACTOR's means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or
the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, or
for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with Laws
and Regulations applicable to the furnishing or
performance of Work, or for any failure of
CONTRACTOR to perform or famish Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole
or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's opinion, it
would be incorrect to make the representations to
29
OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.5. ENGINEER 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 ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER
from loss because:
14.7.1. the Work is defective, or completed Work has
been damaged requiring correction or replacement,
14.7.2. the Contract Price has been reduced by
Written Amendment or Change Order,
14.7.3. OWNER has been required to correct
defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
paragraph 13.14, or
14.7.4. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount
recommended by ENGINEER because:
14.7.5. claims have been made against OWNER on
account of CONTRACTOR's performance or furnishing
of the Work,
14.7.6. Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered a
specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure the
satisfaction and discharge of such Liens,
14.7.7. there are other items entitling OWNER to a set-
off against the amount recommended, or
14.7.8. OWNER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 14.7.1 through 14.7.3 or paragraphs 15.2.1
through 15.2.4 inclusive;
but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate
written notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) stating the
reasons for such action and promptly pay CONTRACTOR
the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed
to by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when
CONTRACTOR corrects to OWNER's satisfaction the
reasons for such action.
Substantial Completion:
14.8. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that the entire Work
is substantially. complete (except for items specifically
listed by CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that
ENGINEER issue a certificate of Substantial Completion.
Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inspection
of the Work to determine the status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider the Work substantially
complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in
writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER
will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative certificate
of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the
certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or
corrected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven
days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which
to make written objection to ENGINEER as to any
provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after
considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that
the Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER will
within fourteen days after submission of the tentative
certificate to OWNER notify CONTRACTOR in writing,
stating the reasons therefor. IC after consideration of
OWNER's objections, ENGINEER considers the Work
substantially complete, ENGINEER will within said
fourteen days execute and deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial
Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be
completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the
tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER At the
time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial
Completion ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to division
of responsibilities pending final payment between
OWNER and CONTRACTOR with respect to security,
operation, safety, maintenance, heat, utilities, insurance
and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER and
CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform
ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing the
definitive certificate of Substantial Completion,
ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding
on OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude
CONTRACTOR from the Work after the date of
Substantial Completion, but OWNER shall allow
CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct
items on the tentative list.
Partial Utilization:
14.10. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of any
substantially completed part of the Work, which: (i) has
specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or
(ii) OWNER, ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR agree
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended
purpose without significant interference with
CONTRACTORS performance of the remainder of the
Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial
Completion of all the Work subject to the following:
14.10.1.OWNER at any time may request
CONTRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use
any such part of the Work which OWNER believes to
be ready for its intended use and substantially
complete. If CONTRACTOR agrees that such part of
the Work is substantially complete, CONTRACTOR
will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that such
part of the Work is substantially complete and request
ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work.
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 0990 Edition)
30 W/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing that CONTRACTOR considers
any such part of the Work ready for its intended use
and substantially complete and request ENGINEER to
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that
part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either
such request, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and
ENGINEER shall make an inspection of that part of
the Work to determine its status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider that part of the Work to
be substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writing giving the
reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers that part of
the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions
of paragraphs 14.8 and 14.9 will,apply with respect to
certification of Substantial Completion of that part of
the Work and the division of responsibility in respect
thereof and access thereto.
14.10.2. No occupancy or separate operation of part
of the Work will be accomplished prior to compliance
with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of
property insurance.
Final Inspection:
14.11. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the
entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete,
ENGINEER will make a final inspection with OWNER
and CONTRACTOR and will notify CONTRACTOR in
writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals
that the Work is incomplete or defective. CONTRACTOR
shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to
complete such work or remedy such deficiencies.
Final Application for Payment:
14.12. After CONTRACTOR has completed all such
corrections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and delivered
in accordance with the Contract Documents all
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules,
guarantees, Bonds, certificates or other evidence of
insurance required by paragraph 5.4, certificates of
inspection, marked -up record documents (as provided in
paragraph 6.19) and other documents, CONTRACTOR
may make application for final payment following the
procedure for progress payments. The final Application for
Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously
delivered) by: (i) all documentation called for in the
Contract Documents, including but not limited to the
evidence of insurance required by subparagraph 5.4.13,
(ii) consent of the surety, if any, to final payment, and
(iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers
(satisfactory to OWNER) of all Liens arising out of or filed
in connection with the Work. In lieu of such releases or
waivers of Liens and as approved by OWNER,
CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or releases in full
and affidavit of CONTRACTOR that: (i) the releases and
receipts include all labor, services, material and equipment
for which a Lien could be filed, and (ii) all payrolls,
material and equipment bills, and other indebtedness
connected with the Work for which OWNER or OWNER's
property might in any way be responsible have been paid or
otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor or Supplier fails
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Edition)
w/CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
to furnish such a release or receipt in full,
CONTRACTOR may furnish a Bond or other collateral
satisfactory to OWNER to indemnify OWNER against
any Lien. Releases or waivers of liens and the consent of
the surety to finalize payment are to be submitted on
forms conforming to the format of the OWNER'S standard
forms bound in the Project manual.
Final Payment and Acceptance:
14.13. If, on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of
the Work during construction and final inspection, and
ENGINEER's review of the final Application for Payment
and accompanying documentation as required by the
Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that the
Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR's other
obligations under the Contract Documents have been
fulfilled, ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of
the final Application for Payment, indicate in writing
ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and present
the Application to OWNER for payment. At the same
time ENGINEER will also give written notice to OWNER
and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject
to the provisions of paragraph 14.15. Otherwise,
ENGINEER will return the Application to
CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for
refusing to recommend final payment, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application. Thirty days after presentation to
OWNER of the Application and accompanying
documentation, in appropriate form and substance and
with ENGINEER's recommendation and notice of
acceptability, the amount recommended by ENGINEER
will become due and will be paid by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR subject to paragraph 17.6.2 of these
General Conditions.
14.14. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final
completion of the Work is significantly delayed and if
ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of
CONTRACTOR's final Application for Payment and
recommendation of ENGINEER, and without terminating
the Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the
remaining balance to be held by OWNER for Work not
fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage
stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been
furnished as required in paragraph 5.1, the written consent
of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be
submitted by CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER with the
Application for such payment. Such payment shall be
made under the terms and conditions governing final
payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of
claims.
Waiver of Claims:
14.15. The making and acceptance of final payment will
constitute:
14.15.1. a waiver of all claims by OWNER against
CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from
unsettled Liens, from defective Work appearing after
31
final inspection pursuant to paragraph 14.11, 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; and
14.15.2. A waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR
against OWNER other than those previously made in
writing and still unsettled.
ARTICLE 15—SUSPENSION OF WORK AND
TERMINATION
OWNER May Suspend Work.
15.1. At any time and without cause, OWNER may
suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not
more than ninety days by notice in writing to
CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER which will fix the date
on which Work will be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall
resume the Work on the date so fixed. CONTRACTOR
shall be allowed an adjustment in the Contract Price or an
extension of the Contract Times, or both, directly
attributable to any such suspension if CONTRACTOR
makes an approved claim therefor as provided in
Articles 11 and 12.
OWNER May Terminate:
15.2. Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the
following events:
15.2.1. if CONTRACTOR persistently fails to perform
the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient
skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment or
failure to adhere to the progress schedule established
under paragraph 2.9 as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to paragraph 6.6);
15.2.2. if CONTRACTOR disregards Laws or
Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
15.2.3. if CONTRACTOR disregards the authority of
ENGINEER; or
15.2.4. if CONTRACTOR otherwise violates in any
substantial way any provisions of the Contract
Documents;
OWNER may, after giving CONTRACTOR (and the
surety, if any) seven days' written notice and to the extent
permitted by Laws and Regulations, terminate the services
of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR from the site
and take possession of the Work and of all
CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construction
equipment and machinery at the site and use the same to
the full extent they could be used by CONTRACTOR
(without liability to CONTRACTOR for trespass or
conversion), incorporate in the Work all materials and
equipment stored at the site or for which OWNER has paid
CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere, and
finish the Work as OWNER may deem expedient. In such
case CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid
balance of the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs,
losses and damages sustained by OWNER arising out of
or resulting from completing the Work such excess will be
paid to CONTRACTOR. If such claims, costs, losses and
damages exceed such unpaid balance, CONTRACTOR
shall pay the difference to OWNER. Such claims, costs,
losses and damages incurred by OWNER will be reviewed
by ENGINEER as to their reasonableness and when so
approved by ENGINEER incorporated in a Change Order,
provided that when exercising any rights or remedies
under this paragraph OWNER shall not be required to
obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.
15.3. Where CONTRACTOR's services have been so
terminated by OWNER, the termination will not affect
any rights or remedies of OWNER against
CONTRACTOR then existing or which may thereafter
accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due
CONTRACTOR by OWNER will not release
CONTRACTOR from liability.
15.4. Upon seven days' written notice to
CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER, OWNER may,
without cause and without prejudice to any other right or
remedy of OWNER, elect to terminate the Agreement. In
such case, CONTRACTOR shall be paid (without
duplication of any items):
15.4.1. for completed and acceptable Work executed
in accordance with the Contract Documents prior to
the effective date of termination, including fair and
reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such
Work;
15.4.2. for expenses sustained prior to the effective
date of termination in performing services and
furnishing labor, materials or equipment as required
by the Contract Documents in connection with
uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for
overhead and profit on such expenses;
15.4.3. for all claims, costs, losses and damages
incurred in settlement of terminated contracts with
Subcontractors, Suppliers and others; and
15.4.4. for reasonable expenses directly attributable
to termination.
CONTRACTOR shall not be paid on account of loss of
anticipated profits or revenue or other economic loss
arising out of or resulting from such termination.
CONTRACTOR May Stop Work or Terminate:
15.5. If, through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the
Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety days
by OWNER or under an order of court or other public
authority, or ENGINEER fails to act on any Application
for Payment within thirty days after it is submitted or
OWNER fails for thirty days to pay CONTRACTOR any
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-5 (1990 Edition)
32 w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
sum finally determined to be due, then CONTRACTOR
may, upon seven days' written notice to OWNER and
ENGINEER, and provided OWNER or ENGINEER do not
remedy such suspension or failure within that time,
terminate the Agreement and recover from OWNER
payment on the same terms as provided in paragraph 15.4.
In lieu of terminating the Agreement and without prejudice
to any other right or remedy, if ENGINEER has failed to
act on an Application for Payment within thirty days after it
is submitted, or OWNER has failed for thirty days to pay
CONTRACTOR any sum finally determined to be due,
CONTRACTOR may upon seven days' written notice to
OWNER and ENGINEER stop the Work until payment of
all such amounts due CONTRACTOR, including interest
thereon. The provisions of this paragraph 15.5 are not
intended to preclude CONTRACTOR from making claim
under Articles 11 and 12 for an increase in Contract Price
or Contract Times or otherwise for expenses or damage
directly attributable to CONTRACTOR's stopping Work as
permitted by this paragraph.
ARTICLE 16—DISPUTE RESOLUTION
If and to the extent that OWNER and CONTRACTOR
have agreed on the method and procedure for resolving
disputes between them that may arise under this
Agreement, such dispute resolution method and procedure,
if any, shall be as set forth in Exhibit GC -A, "Dispute
Resolution Agreement", to be attached hereto and made a
part hereof. If no such agreement on the method and
procedure for resolving such disputes has been reached,
and subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.10, 9.11 and
9.12, OWNER and CONTRACTOR may exercise such
rights or remedies as either may otherwise have under the
Contract Documents or by Laws or Regulations in respect
of any dispute.

EXHIBIT GC -A to General Conditions
of the Construction Contract Between
OWNER and CONTRACTOR
DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENT
OWNER and CONTRACTOR hereby agree that
Article 16 of the General Conditions of the Construction
Contract between OWNER and CONTRACTOR is
amended to include the following agreement of the parties:
16.1. All claims, disputes and other matters in
question between OWNER and CONTRACTOR arising
out of or relating to the Contract Documents or the breach
thereof (except for claims which have been waived by the
making or acceptance of final payment as provided by
paragraph 14.15) will be decided by arbitration in
accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration Association then
obtaining, subject to the limitations of the Article 16. This
agreement so to arbitrate and any other agreement or
consent to arbitrate entered into in accordance herewith as
provided in this Article 16 will be specifically enforceable
under the prevailing law of any court having jurisdiction.
16.2. No demand for arbitration of any claim, dispute
or other matter that is required to be referred to
ENGINEER initially for decision in accordance with
paragraph 9.11 will be made until the earlier of (a) the date
on which ENGINEER has rendered a written decision or
(b) the thirty-first day after the parties have presented their
evidence to ENGINEER if a written decision has not been
rendered by ENGINEER before that date. No demand for
arbitration of any such claim, dispute or other matter will
be made later than thirty days after the date on which
ENGINEER has rendered a written decision in respect
thereof in accordance with paragraph 9.11; and the failure
to demand arbitration within said thirty days' period will
result in ENGINEER's decision being final and binding
upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR. If ENGINEER
renders a decision after arbitration proceedings have been
initiated, such decision may be entered as evidence but will
not supersede the arbitration proceedings, except where the
decision is acceptable to the parties concerned. No demand
for arbitration of any written decision of ENGINEER
rendered in accordance with paragraph 9.10 will be made
later than ten days after the parry making such demand has
delivered written notice of intention to appeal as provided
in paragraph 9.10.
16.3. Notice of the demand for arbitration will be
filed in writing with the other party to the Agreement and
with the American Arbitration Association, and a copy will
be sent to ENGINEER for information. The demand for
arbitration will be made within the thirty -day or ten-day
period specified in paragraph 16.2 as applicable, and in all
other cases within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute
or other matter in question has arisen, and in no event shall
any such demand be made after the date when institution of
legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute
or other matter in question would be barred by the
applicable statute of limitations.
E1CDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Edition)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 9/99)
16.4. Except as provided in paragraph 16.5 below,
no arbitration arising out of or relating to the Contract
Documents shall include by consolidation, joinder or in any
other manner any other person or entity (including
ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultant and the officers,
directors, agents, employees or consultants of any of them)
who is not a party to this contract unless:
16.4.1. the inclusion of such other person or entity is
necessary if complete relief is to be afforded among
those who are already parties to the arbitration, and
16.4.2. such other person or entity is substantially
involved in a question of law or fact which is common
to those who are already parties to the arbitration and
which will arise in such proceedings, and
16.4.3. the written consent of the other person or
entity sought to be included and of OWNER and
CONTRACTOR has been obtained for such inclusion,
which consent shall make specific reference to this
paragraph; but no such consent shall constitute consent
to arbitration of any dispute not specifically described
in such consent or to arbitration with any party not
specifically identified in such consent.
16.5. Notwithstanding paragraph 16.4, if a claim,
dispute or other matter in question between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR involves the Work of a Subcontractor,
either OWNER or CONTRACTOR may join such
Subcontractor as a party to the arbitration between OWNER
and CONTRACTOR hereunder. CONTRACTOR shall
include in all subcontracts required by paragraph 6.11 a
specific provision whereby the Subcontractor consents to
being joined in an arbitration between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR involving the Work of such
Subcontractor. Nothing in this paragraph 16.5 nor in the
provision of such subcontract consenting to joinder shall
create any claim, right or cause of action in favor of
Subcontractor and against OWNER, ENGINEER or
ENGINEER's Consultants that does not otherwise exist.
16.6. The award rendered by the arbitrators will be
final, judgment may be entered upon it in any court having
jurisdiction thereof, and it will not be subject to
modification or appeal.
16.7. OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree that they
shall first submit any and all unsettled claims,
counterclaims, disputes and other matters in question
between them arising out of or relating to the Contract
Documents or the breach thereof ("disputes"), to mediation
by the American Arbitration Association under the
Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American
Arbitration Association prior to either of them initiating
against the other a demand for arbitration pursuant to
paragraphs 16.1 through 16.6, unless delay in initiating
arbitration would irrevocably prejudice one of the parties.
The respective thirty and ten day time limits within which
to file a demand for arbitration as provided in paragraphs
16.2 and 16.3 above shall be suspended with respect to a
dispute submitted to mediation within those same
applicable time limits and shall remain suspended until ten
days after the termination of the mediation. The mediator
of any dispute submitted to mediation under this Agreement
shall not serve as arbitrator of such dispute unless otherwise
agreed.

1.0 DEFINED TERMS
Terms used in these Instructions to Bidders which are defined in the
Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract (No. 1910-8, 1990
ed.) have the meanings assigned to them in the General Conditions. The

Section 210 of the Standard Specifications is hereby revised as follows:
Subsection 210.02 is revised to include the following:
Manholes, valve boxes, meter boxes, and all other similar structures located in a pavement shall be adjusted as noted below
Prior to beginning any construction on existing streets that will receive reconstruction and/or overlay, the Contractor shall
mark on the curb and gutter with paint the location of all existing structures. These markings shall be maintained by the
Contractor until the work has been completed and accepted by the Engineer.
The Contractor shall do all work needed to ensure that said structures can be readily adjusted and shall have all necessary
materials on hand prior to commencing the work. Contractor shall verify that manholes and valve boxes can be adjusted prior
to the overlay. In the event they cannot be adjusted, or properly fitted with rings, the Contractor shall excavate and adjust
prior to the overlay as noted below.
All structures shall be adjusted to be 1/8" to 5/8" below the pavement.
In locations where a structure to be adjusted is surrounded by a concrete collar, the concrete collar shall be removed and
replaced with Hot Bituminous Pavement. HBP Grading SG shall be used in all locations except as noted below.
In locations where a structure adjustment takes place and no overlay is scheduled, HBP Grading SG shall be placed in the
bottom ofthe patches and shall be left one and one-half(1 %) to two (2) inches below the existing street surface to allow the
patch to be 'lopped" with a surface course material. The "topping" material shall be Hot Bituminous Pavement Grading SX
on residential, and Grading S on arterials or collector streets. Hot Bituminous Pavement used for "topping" material will be
measured and paid for at the contract unit price for Patching.
Pavement removal (concrete or asphalt) and placement of bituminous material (Hot Bituminous Pavement) utilized for
structure adjustment, including Grading SG and "topping" material (Grading CX), shall be paid for under the contract unit
price for Patching.
The Engineer shall determine the method of adjustment for each structure. Valve boxes shall be adjusted by one of the
following methods:
1. Adjust by removing the existing pavement (concrete or asphalt), adjusting the valve by turning it to the
proper grade, trimming the existing asphalt by cutting vertical edges, then spreading and mechanically
compacting bituminous material. This item will be measured and paid for separately under "Adjust Valve
Box", not including bituminous material.
2. Ifthe valve box cannot be turned up or can be turned up, but not sufficiently to achieve the proper grade
or ifthe top section ofvalve box is in poor condition, the Contractor shall excavate around the top section
ofthe valve box, and remove and replace the top section with a longer section. The top section part will
be measured and paid for separately under the terms ofthis Contract. The excavation shall then be back
filled with Non -Shrink backfill to the top ofsubgrade, and then material ofthe same grade and quality as
the adjacent pavement shall be placed A mix design for Non -Shrink back fill shall be submitted and
approved prior to starting work. These items shall be measured and paid for separatelyunder "Adjust and
Replace Top Section of Valve Box", not including the top section part or bituminous material.

equal.
Valve Box Top Section, Screw Type Adjustable Risers, and Extensions shall be of the type manufactured by the Tyler
Manufacturing Company, 6850 or 6860 Series, as approved by the Engineer.
Manholes shall be adjusted by one of the following methods:
1. Adjust by removing an area of pavement (concrete or asphalt) with a minimum diameter one foot (l')
larger than the structure (centered on the structure) by cutting vertical edges, adjusting the manhole by
grouting concrete rings and/or utilizing metal shims to raise the structure to the proper grade, then
spreading and mechanically compacting bituminous material. This item will be paid for under "Adjust
Manhole", not including bituminous material.
2. Adjust with adjusting rings. This item will be measured and paid for separately under "Adjust Manhole
with Ring". Paving rings are not permitted on arterial streets, collector streets, or in the wheel path of a
travel lane. Contractor shall verify that the manhole can properly be adjusted with a ring to the proposed
grade prior to beginning the overlay.
When the manhole adjustment is complete, the slope of the top surface of the manhole cover shall match the slope ofthe
pavement in both the longitudinal and traverse directions. Any manhole cover which is unstable or noisy under traffic shall be replaced by the Contractor.
if a manhole or valve box is located in an area to be patched or cold milled, it may be adjusted as part of that operation
utilizing one of the methods listed in the previous paragraphs. The adjustment will be paid for under the matching item.
If the structure is adjusted during the grinding or patching operation, the Contractor shall place hot bituminous material
around the structure as directed by the Engineer to insure that it will not be a hazard to vehicular traffic. ._
The Contractor shall be responsible for immediately cleaning out all construction materials that mayfall into manholes, valve
boxes, or other structures during the construction process.
In the everit that a structure was not properly adjusted (i.e. too high or too low), written notice will be given by the Engineer
to the Contractor requiring the Contractor to make the necessary adjustments within five (5) working days. In the event that
the structure is not adjusted within said time frame, the Engineer shall have the tight to engage a third party to complete the _.
work, and to withhold the cost ofsuch work from payments due the Contractor.
The Engineer will also notify the Contractor in writing ofany structures that were covered during the paving operation. The —
Contractor shall then have five (5) working days to make said structure accessible or will be subject to the constraints ofthe
previous paragraph with respect to a third party completing the work.
In the unlikely event that a structure is adjusted after the overlay is complete, the Contractor must exercise care as not to
damage the new pavement surrounding the structure. The "toppmg7' material shall be Grading SX on residential streets, and —

REVISION OF SECTION 307
STABILIZED SUBGRADE - CLASS C FLY ASH
Section 307 of the Standard Specification is hereby revised as follows:
DESCRIPTION
This item shall consist oftreating the subgrade, existing subbase or existing base, by pulverizing, adding Class C flyash, and
mixing and compacting the mixed material to the required density. This item applies to natural ground or embankment and
shall be constructed as specified herein and in conformity with the typical sections, lines and grades as shown on the plans or
as established by the Engineer.
MATERIALS
(1) Fly Ash - Fly Ash shall meet ASTM C 618 for Class C Fly Ash.
(2) Water - The water used in the stabilized mixture shall be potable.
CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
EQUIPMENT
(1) The machinery, tools and equipment necessary for proper prosecution ofthe work shall be on the project
and approved by the Engineer prior to the beginning of construction operations. ._
All machinery, tools, and equipment used shall be maintained in a satisfactory and workmanlike manner.
(2) Fly ash is furnished in trucks. Each truck shall have the weight of fly ash recorded on certified scales.
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
(1) General
It is the purpose ofthis specification to secure a completed course of treated material which contains a
uniform fly ash/soil mixture with no loose or segregated areas; has a uniform density and moisture
content; is well bound for its full depth; and has a smooth surface suitable for placing subsequent courses.
It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to regulate the sequence ofhis work; to process a sufficient
quantity of material to provide full depth as shown on the plans; to use the proper amounts of fly ash; to
maintain the work; and to rework the courses as necessary to meet the above requirements.
(2) Preparation ofSubgrade
Before other construction operations are begun, the subgrade shall be graded and shaped to enable the fly
ash treatment of materials in place, in conformance with the lines, grades, and thiclmess shown on the
plans.
(3) Application
The fly ash shall be spread by a method approved by the Engineer at the rates shown on the plans or as
directed by the Engineer. Fly ash shall not be applied when wind conditions, in the opinion of the
Engineer, are such that blowing fly ash becomes objectionable to traffic or adjacent property owners.
During final mixing, the materials shall be sprinkled, as directed by the Engineer, until the proper
moisture content has been secured. However, initial mixing after the addition of fly ash will be
Project Specifications— Page IS of35 —
REVISION OF SECTION 307
STABILIZED SUBGRADE - CLASS C FLY ASH
accomplished dry, or with a minimum of water, to preventfly ash balls. Final moisture content ofthe mix,
prior to compaction, shall not exceed the optimum moisture content of the mix by more than 2%, nor be
less than optimum by more than 2%. Should the natural moisture content of the soil be above the
specified range, aeration of the soil may be required prior to addition of the fly ash.
(4) Mixing
The soil and fly ash shall be thoroughly mixed by approved road mixers or other approved equipment.
The mixing shall continue until, in the opinion of the Engineer, a homogeneous, friable mixture of soil and
fly ash is obtained, free from all clods or lumps. Water required to achieve the specified moisture content
for the mixture should be added after initial mixing. There shall be a 6" overlap between passes to assure
a consistent mix.
(5) Compaction
Compaction of the mixture shall begin immediately after mixing of the fly ash and shall be completed
within 2 hours following addition of water to the fly ash. The material shall be sprinkled as necessary to
maintain the optimum moisture. Compaction of the mixture shall begin at the bottom and shall continue
until the entire depth of mixture is uniformly compacted to the specified density.
All non -uniform (too wet, too dry, or insufficiently treated) areas which appear shall be corrected
immediately by scarifying the areas affected, adding or removing material as required, and reshaping and
re -compacting by sprinkling and rolling. The surface of the course shall be maintained in a smooth
condition, free from undulations and ruts, until other work is placed thereon or the work is accepted.
The stabilized section shall be compacted to the extent necessary to provide the density specified below
DENSITY
For fly ash treated subgrade, existing subbase or Not less than 95% maximum dry density
existing base that will receive subsequent subbase (ASTM D 698)
or base courses.
For fly ash treated base that will receive surface Not less than 97% maximum dry density
course. to eTKA n C04'�
In addition to the requirements specified for density, the full depth of the material shown on the plans shall
be compacted to the extent necessary to remain firm and stable under construction equipment. After each
section is completed, tests as necessary will be made by the Engineer. If the material fails to meet the
density requirements, the Engineer may require it to be reworked as necessary to meet those requirements
or require the Contractor to change his construction methods to obtain required density on the next
section. Throughout this entire operation the shape ofthe course shall be maintained by bleding, and the
surface, upon completion, shall be smooth and in conformity with the typical section shown on the plans
and to the established lines and grades. Blading should be terminated within 2 hours after blending ofthe
fly ash. Should the material, due to any reason or cause, lose the required stability, density orfinish before
the next course is placed, or the work is accepted, it shall be reprocessed, re -compacted, and refinished at
the sole expense of the Contractor. Reprocessing shall follow the same pattern as the initial stabilization,
including the addition of fly ash.

STABILIZED SUBGRADE - CLASS C FLY ASH
(6) Finishing, Curing, and Preparation for Surfacing
After the final layer or course of the treated subgrade, subbase or base has been compacted, it shall be
brought to the required limes and grades in accordance with the typical sections.
(a) The resulting base surface shall be thoroughlyrolled with a pneumatic tire roller and "clipped",
"skinned", or "tight bladed" by a power grader to a depth of approximately 1/411, removing all
loosened stabilized material from the section. Re -compaction of loose material should not
be attempted. The surface shall then be thoroughly compacted with the pneumatic roller, adding
small increments ofmoisque as needed during rolling. Uplus No. 4 aggregate is present on the
surface ofthe mixture, one complete coverage ofer section with the fiat wheel roller shall be "-
made immediately after the "clipping" operaticti. When directed by the Engineer, surface
finishing methods may be varied from this procedure provided a dense, uniform surface, free of
surface compaction planes, is produced. The moisture content of the surface material must be
maintained within the specified range during all finishing, and shall proceed in such amarmer as
to produce, in not more than 2 hours, a smooth, closely knit surface, free of cracks, ridges or
loose material conforming to the crown, grade and tune shown on the plans.
(b) After the fly ash treated course has been finished as specified herein, the surface shall be
protected against rapid drying in a thorough and continuously moist condition bysprinkling for a
period of not less than 3 days, or until the surface or subsequent courses are placed.
MEASUREMENT
Fly ash treatment of the subgrade, existing subbase, and existing base shall be measured by the square yard to neat lines as
shown on the typical sections.

4.2.6.3. with respect to Work that is paid for
on a Unit Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract
Price will be subject to the provisions of
paragraphs 9.10 and 11.9; and
4.2.6.4. CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled
to any adjustment in the Contract Price or Times

permitted, other items of material or equipment or
material or equipment of other Suppliers may be
accepted by ENGINEER under the following
circumstances:
6.7.1.1. "Or -Equal": If in ENGINEERS sole
discretion an item of material or equipment

same use as that specified. The application will
state the extent, if any, to which the evaluation '+
and acceptance of the proposed substitute will

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.

specified will be identified in the application and
available maintenance, repair and replacement
service will be indicated. The application will
also contain an itemized estimate of all costs or
credits that will result directly or indirectly from

sequence or procedure of construction is shown or
indicated in and expressly required by the Contract
Documents, CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a
substitute means, method, technique, sequence or
procedure of construction acceptable to ENGINEER -
CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information to
allow ENGINEER, in ENGINEER's sole discretion, to
determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to
that expressly called for by the Contract Documents.
The procedure for review by ENGINEER will be
similar to that provided in subparagraph 6.7.1.2.
6.7.3. Engineer's Evaluation: ENGINEER will be
allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate
each proposal or submittal made pursuant to
paragraphs 6.7.1.2 and 6.7.2. ENGINEER will be the
