C. Punctuation-In this publication the "outside method" of punctuation is employed for placement of the
comma and the period with respect to quotation marks. Only punctuation that is part of the quoted
matter is placed within quotation marks.
D. References to Laws, Acts, Regulations, Rules, Ordinances, Statutes, Orders, and Permits -
References are made in the text of the Specifications to "laws", "acts", "rules", "statutes", "regulations",
"ordinances", etc. (collectively referred to for purposes of this Subsection as "Law"), and to "orders" and
"permits" (issued by a governmental authority,whether local,State, or federal,and collectively referred to
for purposes of this Subsection as "Permits"). Reference is also made to "applicable laws and regulations".
The following conventions apply in interpreting these terms, as used in the Specifications.
1. Statues and Rules — Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) and Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR)
referenced in the Specifications are accessible on line, including through the Oregon Legislative
Counsel Committee web site and through the Oregon Secretary of State Archives Division web site.
2. Law—In each case, unless otherwise expressly stated therein, the Law is to be understood to be the

whether the text of the Law has been included in the Specifications or not, and regardless of whether
the text of the Law has been summarized or paraphrased. In each case, the current version of the
Law is applicable under any Contract. The reader is therefore cautioned to check the actual text of
the Law to confirm that the text included in the Specifications has not been modified or superseded.
3. Permits - Orders and Permits issued by a Government agency may be modified during the course of
performing the Work under a Contract. Therefore, wherever the term "Order" or "Permit" is used
in the Specifications,it is intended to refer to the then-current version. That version may be embodied
in a modified,superseding order or permit,or it may consist of all terms and conditions of prior orders
or permits that have not been superseded, as well as the additional terms added by amendment or
supplement. In certain cases, the orders and/or permits are identified by name in the Specifications;
in other cases the terms are used in the generic sense. The reader is cautioned to check the text(s) of
each order and permit identified either by name or by generic reference.

00120.15 Examination of Work Site and Solicitation Documents; Consideration of Conditions to be
Encountered—Before submitting a Bid, Bidders shall make a careful visual examination of the site of the
proposed Work, the Bid Booklet, Plans, and Specifications. Bidders shall also review any subsurface
investigation material referenced in 00120.25 that may be available and conduct additional investigation of
any unusual condition apparent during the visual site examination. As soon as reasonably practicable after
noting any such unusual condition,Bidder shall notify Agency,in writing, of any such unusual condition and
the additional investigation undertaken by Bidder. Submission of a Bid will constitute confirmation that the
Bidder has examined the Project Site and finds the Plans and Specifications to be sufficiently detailed and
18
00120
accurate to enable Bidder to properly perform the Work, and understands the conditions to be encountered
in performing the Work and all requirements of the Contract.
The Bidder is responsible for loss or unanticipated costs suffered by the Bidder because of the Bidder's failure
to fully examine the site and become fully informed about all conditions of the Work, or failure to request
clarification of Plans and Specifications Bidder believes to be erroneous or incomplete.
Any clarification of Plans and Specifications needed by the Bidder shall be requested in writing by e-mail

request clarification or changes shall be deemed acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of the
Procurement. Oral explanations or interpretations given before receiving Bids for a Project will not be
binding. To be binding,interpretation of the Plans and Specifications by the Agency must be made by written
Addendum furnished to all Holders of Bidding Plans according to 00120.30.
00120.16 Material, Equipment, and Method Substitutions—When the Contract specifies certain

00120.17 Use of Agency-Owned Land for Staging or Storage Areas -The Contractor may use Agency-
owned property for staging or storage areas, subject to the following limitations:
A. Within Normal Right-of-Way Limits -If approved by the Engineer, the Contractor may use available
property within the normal Right-of-Way limits for the purpose of constructing improvements under the
Contract as long as such use does not unduly impede other legitimate users of the Right-of-Way or
adjacent properties. Where the Agency owns, or has rights to, other adjacent properties in the Project
area, "normal Right-of-Way" is limited to a line drawn across that property connecting the normal Right-
of-Way limits on either side of the property.
B. Outside Normal Right-of-Way Limits -The Contractor may not use Agency-owned property outside
of normal Right-of-Way limits for the Project without the approval of the Engineer.
If a Bidder obtains approval before submitting a Bid, use of the property will be at no cost to the
Contractor, or at a cost stated by the Engineer upon granting approval, as confirmed by Addendum.
If approval is not obtained before submitting a Bid, and the Contractor proposes to use Agency-owned
property outside the normal Right-of-Way limits, then use of the property may be approved by the
Engineer,but the Contractor will be assessed fair market value,as determined by the Engineer, for use of
the property.
C. Restrictions on Use - Contractors shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, and regulations
pertaining to use of Agency-owned property, and shall:
1. Not cause unreasonable impacts on traffic and other facility users.
2. Clean up all hazardous materials deposited by, or resulting from, Contractor operations.

additional lands and access thereto that may be required for temporary construction facilities, or storage or
staging of materials and equipment.
A. Within five (5) days of Contractor executing an agreement with property owners of land for
Contractor's use,provide Agency with a copy of such agreement.
B. In the event of claims or disputes between Contractor and property owner, Contractor shall indemnify
and defend the Agency,its officers, agents and employees in conformance with the Public
Improvement Contract,Article 7—Indemnification.
00120.20 Interpretation of Quantities in Bid Schedule— Quantities appearing in the Bid Schedule are
approximate and are provided only for comparison of Bids. The Agency does not warrant that the actual
individual items,amount of Work,or quantities will correspond to those shown in the Bid Schedule. Payment
to the Contractor will be made only for actual quantities of Work performed and accepted or Materials
furnished and accepted, as required by the Contract. Quantities of Work to be performed and Materials to
be furnished may each be increased, decreased, or omitted as provided in 00120.30 and 00140.30.
00120.25 Subsurface Investigations — If the Agency or its consultant has conducted subsurface or geologic
investigations of the proposed Project Site or contiguous to the Project Site, the results of the investigations
may be included in written geotechnical data reports. If geotechnical data reports have been prepared, such
reports may be included in the Solicitation Documents (see Special Provisions) and shall be considered as part
of the Contract Documents to the extent that the Contractor may rely upon the accuracy of the technical data
contained in such reports. If the Agency has retained subsurface samples, they will also be available for
inspection. Bidders and the Contractor may make arrangements for viewing the samples through the
Engineer's office.
The availability of subsurface information from the Agency is solely for the convenience of the Bidder and
shall not relieve the Bidder or the Contractor of any risk, duty to make examinations and investigations as
required by 00120.15, or other responsibility under the Contract Documents. It is mutually agreed to by all
parties that:
A. The subsurface investigations made by the Agency are for the purpose of obtaining data for planning and
design of the Project
B. The data for individual test boring logs apply only to that particular boring and is not intended to be
conclusive as to the character of any material between or around test borings.
C. If Bidders use this information in preparing a Bid,it is used at their own risk, and Bidders are responsible
for all conclusions,deductions, and inferences drawn from this information.
D. Contractor may not rely upon or make any claim against Owner or Engineer, or any of their officers,
directors, members, partners, employees, consultants, or subcontractors with respect to any Contractor
interpretation of or conclusion drawn from any technical data or any such other data, interpretations,
opinions, or information
00120.30 Changes to Plans, Specifications, or Quantities before Opening of Bids -The Agency
reserves the right to issue Addenda making changes or corrections to the Plans, Specifications, or quantities.

Agency as Holders of Bidding Plans will be notified of these Addenda by e-mail, or delivery service, sent to
the Bidder's address as it appears in the Agency's files.
The Agency may extend Bid Closing if Agency determines prospective Bidders need additional time to review
and respond to Addenda. Agency will not, except to the extent required by a countervailing public interest,
issue Addenda less than 72 hours before Bid Closing unless the Addendum also extends Bid Closing.
Bidders shall acknowledge Addenda by submitting the "Acknowledgment of Addendum"in the Bid Booklet
with their Bids. The Agency will not be responsible for failure of Bidders to receive Addenda sent as described
20
00120
in the preceding paragraph. Bids shall incorporate all Addenda. Bids may be rejected if opened and found
by the Agency to not be based on all Addenda issued before Bid Closing.

publicly at the time and place indicated in the Advertisement for Bids. Bidders and other interested parties
are invited to be present.
Bids for each Project will be compared on the basis of the total amount of each Bid. The total amount of the
Bid will be the total sum computed from quantities listed in the Bid Schedule and unit prices entered by the
Bidder.
In case of conflict between the unit price and the corresponding extended amount,the unit price shall govern,
and the Agency may make arithmetic corrections on extension amounts.
Error(s) discovered after Bid opening cannot be corrected by the Bidder and the contractor will be required
to perform work at the unit price if its Bid is accepted.
00120.67 Bid Mistakes:
A. General - Under extraordinary circumstances, a Bid may be withdrawn after the deadline for submittal
because of an inadvertent nonjudgmental mistake. If the mistake is attributable to an error in judgment,
the Bid may not be withdrawn or corrected. Correction or withdrawal by reason of nonjudgmental mistake
is permissible but only to the extent it is not contrary to the interest of the Agency or the fair treatment
of other Bidders.
B. Mistakes Discovered after Bid Closing but before Award -This section applies to situations where
mistakes in Bids are discovered after the submission deadline but before Award.
1. Minor Informalities -Minor informalities are matters of form rather than substance that are evident
from the Bid Documents, or insignificant mistakes that can be waived or corrected promptly without
prejudice to other Bidders or the Agency;that is,the informality does not affect price,quantity,quality,
23
00120
delivery, or contractual conditions except in the case of informalities involving unit prices. Examples
include,but are not limited to,the failure of a Bidder to:
a) Return the number of signed Bids or number of other documents required by the Bid Documents;
b) Sign the Bid Form in the designated block so long the Bid Documents evidence an intent to be
bound; or
c) Acknowledge receipt of an Addendum to the Bid Documents,but only if-
d)
£d) It is clear from the Bid that the Bidder received the Addendum and intended to be bound by its
terms; or
e) The Addendum involved did not affect price, quantity, quality, or delivery.
C. Mistakes Where Intended Correct Bid is Evident - If the mistake and the intended correct Bid are
clearly on the face of the Bid Form, or can be substantiated from accompanying documents, the Agency
may accept the Bid. Examples of mistakes that may be clearly evident on the face of the Bid Form are
typographical errors,errors in extending unit prices,transposition errors,and arithmetical errors.Mistakes
that are clearly evident on the face of the Bid Form also may include instances in which the intended
correct Bid is made clearly evident by simple arithmetic calculations. For example, a missing unit price
may be established by dividing the total Bid or proposal item by the quantity of units for that item, and a
missing or incorrect total Bid price for an item may be established by multiplying the unit price by the
quantity when those figures are available on the Bid. For discrepancies between unit prices and extended
prices,unit prices shall normally prevail.
D. Mistakes Where Intended Correct Bid is Not Evident -The Agency may not accept a Bid in which a
mistake is clearly evident on the face of the Bid Form but the intended correct Bid is not clearly evident
or cannot be substantiated from accompanying documents.
00120.68 Low Tie Bids:
A. Definition -Low tie Bids are low responsive Bids from responsible Bidders that are identical in price,
fitness, availability and quality and which meet all the requirements and criteria set forth in the Bid
Documents.
B. Award: If low tie Bids are received, a preference shall be given to goods and services that have been
manufactured or produced in Oregon.
1. If the bids remain tied after application,preference shall be given to the Bidder whose principal offices
or headquarters are located in Oregon.
2. If the Bids remain tied after application and Subsections a, the Award shall be made by drawing lots
among any tied Oregon Bidders. Such Bidders shall be given notice and an opportunity to be
present when the lots are drawn.
3. If there are no Oregon Bidders after application and subsections a and b,Award of the contract shall
be made by drawing lots.
00120.70 Rejection of Nonresponsive Bids—A Bid will be considered irregular and will be rejected if the
irregularity is deemed by the Agency to render the Bid non-responsive. Examples of irregularities include
without limitation:
A. The Bid Section documents provided are not properly used or contain unauthorized alterations.
B. The Bid is incomplete or incorrectly completed.
C. The Bid contains improper additions, deletions, alternate Bids, or conditions.

P. The Bid does not acknowledge all issued Addenda.
Q. The Bid contains entries that are not greater than zero.
R. The Bid entries are not expressed in U.S. dollars and cents.
S. The Agency determines that any Pay Item is significantly unbalanced to the potential detriment of the
Agency
In addition,the Agency may reject all Bids and suspend the project in the event all Bids exceed the funds the
Agency has appropriated for the project or for good cause upon its finding that it is in the public interest to
do so. The Agency may also waive minor informalities or irregularities.
00120.80 Reciprocal Preference for Oregon Resident Bidders— This Subsection applies only to
Contracts for Projects financed without federal funds.
Bidders shall complete the certificate of residency provided by the Agency in the Bid Booklet. Failure to
properly complete the form will be cause to reject the Bid.
As used in the certificate of residency and this Subsection, "Resident Bidder" means a Bidder who has:
A. Paid unemployment taxes or income taxes in the State of Oregon during any of the 12 calendar months
immediately preceding submission of the Bid;
B. A business address in the State of Oregon; and
C. Certified in the Bid that the Bidder qualifies as a Resident Bidder
"Nonresident Bidder" means a Bidder who is not a Resident Bidder as defined above.
In determining the lowest Bid, the Agency will, for the purpose of awarding the Contract, add a percentage
increase to the Bid of a Nonresident Bidder equal to the percentage, if any, of the preference given to that
Bidder in the state in which the Bidder resides (ORS 279A.120). The percentage preference applied in each
state will be published on or before January 1 of each year by the Oregon Department of Administrative
Services. The Agency may rely on these percentages without incurring liability to any Bidder(ORS 279A.120).
This increase will only be applied to determine the lowest Bid, and will not cause an increase in payment to
the Contractor after Award of the Contract.
00120.90 Disqualification of Bidders— The Bid(s) of a disqualified Bidder will be rejected. Any of the
following reasons is sufficient to disqualify a Bidder:
A. More than one Bid is submitted for the same Work by an Entity under the same or different name(s).
B. Evidence of collusion among Bidders. Participants in collusion will be found not responsible, and may
25
00120
be subject to criminal prosecution.
C. Any of the grounds for disqualification cited in ORS 279C.440.
A Bidder will be disqualified if the Bidder has:
A. Not been prequalified if required by 00120.02;
B. Been declared ineligible by the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor and Industries under
ORS 279C.860;
C. Not been registered (licensed) by the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) or been licensed by
the State Landscape Contractors Board before submitting a Bid (ORS 279C.365(1)(k), ORS 701.021,
ORS 701.026, and ORS 671.530). The Bidder's registration number and expiration date shall be shown
in the Bid form,if requested. Failure to furnish the registration number,if requested,will render the Bid
non-responsive and subject to rejection. (not required on Federal-Aid projects); or
D. Been determined by the CCB under ORS 701.227 not to be qualified to hold or participate in a public
contract for a public improvement.
00120.91 Rejection of Bid on Grounds of Nonresponsibility of Bidder -The Bid of a Bidder who is
found to be nonresponsible according to the criteria listed in 00130.10 or ORS 279C.375(3)will be rejected.
26
00130
Section 00130 -Award and Execution of Contract
00130.00 Consideration of Bids -After opening and reading Bids, the Agency will check them for correct
extensions of unit prices and totals. (see 00120.65) The total of extensions, corrected where necessary, will
be used by the Agency for Award purposes. Discrepancies between words and figures will be resolved in
favor of words. In selecting the lowest responsive Bid,the Agency reserves the right to take into consideration
any or all alternatives called for in the Bid Form.
The Agency reserves the right to waive minor informalities and irregularities, and to reject any or all Bids for
irregularities under 00120.70 or for good cause after finding that it is in the public interest to do so (ORS
279C.395). An example of good cause for rejection in the public interest is the Agency's determination that
any of the unit Bid prices are materially unbalanced to the Agency's potential detriment. A materially
unbalanced Bid is defined as, "a Bid which generates a reasonable doubt that award to the Bidder submitting
a mathematically unbalanced Bid will result in the lowest cost to the Agency." The Agency may correct
obvious errors, when the correct information can be determined from the face of the document, if it finds
that the best interest of the Agency and the public will be served thereby.
00130.10 Award of Contract -After the Bids are opened and a determination is made that a Contract is to
be awarded,the Contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible Bidder. For the purposes of this Section,
"lowest responsible Bidder" means the responsible Bidder that submitted the lowest responsive Bid who is
not on the list created by the Construction Contractors Board according to ORS 701, and who has:
A. Substantially complied with all prescribed public bidding procedures and requirements.
B. Available the appropriate financial,Materials, Equipment, facility and personnel resources and expertise,
or ability to obtain the resources and expertise, necessary to indicate the capability of the prospective
Bidder to meet all contractual responsibilities.
C. A satisfactory record of performance. In evaluating a Bidder's record of performance, the Agency may
consider, among other things,whether the Bidder completed previous contracts of a similar nature with
a satisfactory record of performance. For purposes of evaluating a Bidder's performance on previous
contracts of a similar nature, a satisfactory record of performance means that to the extent that the costs
associated with and time available to perform a previous contract remained within the Bidder's control,
the Bidder stayed within the time and budget allotted for the procurement and otherwise performed the
contract in a satisfactory manner.
D. A satisfactory record of integrity. In evaluating a Bidder's record of integrity, the Agency may consider,
among other things,whether the Bidder has previous criminal convictions for offenses related to obtaining
or attempting to obtain a contract or subcontract or in connection with the Bidder's performance of a
contract or subcontract.
E. Qualified legally to contract with the Agency.
F. Supplied all necessary information in connection with the Agency's inquiry concerning responsibility. If a
prospective Bidder fails to promptly supply information requested by the Agency concerning
responsibility, the Agency shall base the determination of responsibility upon any available information,
or may find the prospective Bidder not to be responsible.
G. Not been disqualified by the public contracting agency under ORS 279C.440.
If the Bidder is found not to have a satisfactory record of performance or integrity,the Agency will document

lowest Bidders and any other Bidder directly in line for Contract Award,may submit to the Agency a written
protest of the Agency's intent to Award within seven Calendar days following the date of the Notice of Intent
to Award. The protest shall specify the grounds upon which it is based.
An aggrieved Bidder may protest an award only if the Bidder alleges,in its written protest, that it should have
received the award because:
A. All lower Bids are non-responsive;
B. The Agency failed to conduct the Bid process as described in the Bid Document;
C. The Agency has abused its discretion in rejecting the protestor's Bid as non-responsive or non-
responsible; or
D. The Agency's evaluation of Bids or subsequent determination of award is otherwise in violation of ORS
Chapters 279A and 279C or the Agency's public contracting rules.

modify Plans, Specifications, or other Contract Documents for the sole purpose of reducing the total cost of
construction. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Agency, a proposal that is solely or primarily a
proposal to reduce estimated quantities or delete Work, as determined by the Engineer, is not eligible for
consideration as a cost reduction proposal and will instead be addressed under 00140.30,whether proposed
or suggested by the Agency or the Contractor.
A. Proposal Requirements -The Agency will not adopt a cost reduction proposal that impairs essential
functions or characteristics of the Project including but not limited to service life, economy of operation,
ease of maintenance, designed appearance, or design and safety standards.
To conserve time and funds, the Contractor may first submit a written request for a feasibility review by
the Engineer. The request should contain a description of the proposal together with a rough estimate of
32
00140
anticipated dollar and time savings. The Engineer will,within a reasonable time, advise the Contractor in
writing whether or not the proposal would be considered by the Agency, should the Contractor elect to
submit a detailed cost reduction proposal.
A detailed cost reduction proposal shall include without limitation the following information:
1. A description of existing Contract requirements for performing the Work and the proposed change;
2. The Contract items of Work affected by the proposed change,including any quantity variation caused
by the proposed change;
3. Pay Items affected by the proposed change including any quantity variations;
4. A detailed cost estimate for performing the Work under the existing Contract and under the proposed
change. Cost estimates shall be made according to Section 00197. Costs of re-design, which are
incurred after the Agency has accepted the proposal, will be included in the cost of proposed work;
and
5. A date by which the Engineer must accept the proposal in order to accept the proposed change
without impacting the Contract Time or cost reduction amount.
B. Continuing to Perform Work-The Contractor shall continue to perform the Work according to
Contract requirements until the Engineer issues a Change Order incorporating the cost reduction
proposal. If the Engineer fails to issue a Change Order by the date specified in the proposal,the proposal
shall be deemed rejected.
C. Consideration of Proposal-The Engineer is not obligated to consider any cost reduction proposal. The
Agency will not be liable to the Contractor for failure to accept or act upon any cost reduction proposal
submitted.
The Engineer will determine in its sole discretion whether to accept a cost reduction proposal as well as
the estimated net savings in construction costs from the adoption of all or any part of the proposal. In
determining the estimated net savings, the Engineer may disregard the Schedule of Items. The Engineer
will establish prices that represent a fair measure of the value of Work to be performed or to be deleted
as a result of the cost reduction proposal.
D. Sharing Investigation Costs -As a condition for considering a Contractor's cost reduction proposal,
the Agency reserves the right to require the Contractor to share in the Agency's costs of investigating the
proposal. If the Agency exercises this right, the Contractor shall provide written acceptance of the
condition to the Engineer. Such acceptance will authorize the Agency to deduct its share of investigation
costs from payments due or that may become due to the Contractor under the Contract.
E. Acceptance of Proposal Requirements - If the Contractor's cost reduction proposal is accepted in
whole or in part, acceptance will be made by a Change Order that will include without limitation the
following:
1. Statement that the Change Order is made according to 00140.70;
2. Revised Contract Documents that reflect all modifications necessary to implement the approved cost
reduction measures;
3. Any conditions upon which the Agency's approval is subject;
4. Estimated net savings in construction costs attributable to the approved cost reduction measures;and
5. A payment provision according to which the Contractor will be paid 50%of the estimated net savings
amount as full and adequate consideration for performance of the Work of the Change Order.
The Contractor's cost of preparing the cost reduction proposal and the Agency's costs of investigating the
proposal, including any portion paid by the Contractor, will be excluded from determination of the
33
00140
estimated net savings in construction costs. Costs of re-design,which are incurred after the Agency has
accepted the proposal,will be included in the cost of the Work attributable to cost reduction measures.
If the Agency accepts the cost reduction proposal,the Change Order that authorizes the cost reduction
measures will also address any Contract Time adjustment.
F. Right to General Use - Once submitted, the cost reduction proposal becomes the property of the
Agency. The Agency reserves the right to adopt the cost reduction proposal for general use without
additional compensation to the Contractor when it determines that a proposal is suitable for application
to other contracts.
00140.80 Use of Publicly Owned Equipment -The Contractor is prohibited from using publicly-owned
Equipment except in the case of emergency. In an emergency, the Contractor may rent publicly-owned
Equipment provided that:

00150.35 Submittals:
A. Description — Submittals covered by these requirements include manufacturers' information, shop
drawings, test procedures, test results, samples, and miscellaneous Work-related submittals. Submittals
shall also include, but not be limited to, all mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment and systems,
materials, reinforcing steel, fabricated items, and piping and conduit details. The Contractor shall furnish
all drawings, specifications, descriptive data, certificates, samples, tests, methods, schedules, and
manufacturer's installation and warranty information and other instructions as specifically required in the
Contract Documents to demonstrate fully that the materials and equipment to be furnished and the
methods of work comply with the provisions and intent of the Contract Documents.
B. Contractor's Responsibilities
1. The Contractor shall be responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information contained
in each submittal and shall assure that the material,equipment or method of work shall be as described
in the submittal. The Contractor shall verify that all features of all products conform to the specified
requirements. Submittal documents shall be clearly edited to indicate only those items, models, or
series of equipment,which are being submitted for review. All extraneous materials shall be crossed
39
00150
out or otherwise obliterated.The Contractor shall ensure that there is no conflict with other submittals
and notify the Engineer in each case where his submittal may affect the work of another contractor
or the Agency. The Contractor shall coordinate submittals among its subcontractors and suppliers
including those submittals complying with unit responsibility requirements specified in applicable
technical sections.
2. The Contractor shall coordinate submittals with the Work so that Work will not be delayed. It shall
coordinate and schedule different categories of submittals, so that one will not be delayed for lack of
coordination with another. No extension of time will be allowed because of failure to properly
schedule submittals. The Contractor shall not proceed with Work related to a submittal until the
submittal process is complete.This requires that submittals for review and comment shall be returned
to the Contractor with the indication "No Exceptions Taken" or "Make Corrections Noted."
3. Submittals shall be carefully reviewed by an authorized representative of the Contractor prior to
submission to the Engineer. Each submittal shall be dated and signed by the Contractor as being
correct and in strict conformance with the Contract Documents. In the case of Shop Drawings, each
sheet shall be so dated and signed. Any deviations from the Contract Documents shall be noted by
the Engineer and Agency. The Engineer will only review submittals that have been so verified by the
Contractor. Non-verified submittals will be returned to the Contractor without action taken by the
Engineer, and any delays caused thereby shall be the total responsibility of the Contractor.
4. The Contractor shall certify on each submittal document that it has reviewed the submittal, verified
field conditions, and complied with the contract documents.
5. The Contractor may authorize in writing a material or equipment supplier to deal directly with the
Engineer or with the Agency with regard to a submittal. These dealings shall be limited to contract
interpretations to clarify and expedite the Work.
C. Shop Drawings and Product Submittals
1. Wherever called for in the Contract Documents or where required by the Engineer, the Contractor
shall furnish to the Engineer for review, five (5) copies plus one reproducible copy or electronic file,
of each Shop Drawing or Product submittal. Shop Drawings may include detail design calculations,
shop-prepared drawings, fabrication and installation drawings,erection drawings,lists,graphs,catalog
sheets,data sheets,and similar items. If a list,graph, catalog sheet,data sheet, etc.includes more than
one item, clearly mark which item is the subject of the submittal. Shop Drawings shall bear the
signature and seal of an engineer registered in the appropriate branch and in the state of Oregon,
unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the Contractor is required to submit design calculations as part
of a submittal, such calculations shall bear the signature and seal of an engineer registered in the
appropriate branch and in the state of Oregon, unless otherwise indicated.
2. Shop Drawing and Product submittals shall be accompanied by the Engineer's standard submittal
transmittal form, a reproducible copy of which is available from the Engineer. A submittal without
the form or where applicable items on the form are not completed will be returned for resubmittal.
3. Organization
a) A single submittal transmittal form shall be used for each technical specification section or item
or class of material or equipment for which a submittal is required. A single submittal covering
multiple sections will not be acceptable,unless the primary specification references other sections
for components. Example: if a pump section references other sections for the motor, shop-
applied protective coating,anchor bolts,local control panel,and variable frequency drive,a single
40
00150
submittal would be acceptable. A single submittal covering vertical turbine pumps and horizontal
split case pumps would not be acceptable.
b) On the transmittal form, index the components of the submittal and insert tabs in the submittal
to match the components. Relate the submittal components to specification paragraph and
subparagraph, Drawing number, detail number, schedule title, room number, or building name,
as applicable.
c) Unless indicated otherwise, terminology and equipment names and numbers used in submittals
shall match those used in the Contract Documents
4. Format
a) Minimum sheetsize shall be 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Maximum sheet size shall be 22 inches by 34
inches. Every page in a submittal shall be numbered in sequence. Each copy of a submittal shall
be collated and stapled or bound, as appropriate. The Engineer will not collate sheets or copies.
b) Where product data from a manufacturer is submitted, clearly mark which model is proposed,
with complete pertinent data capacities, dimensions, clearances, diagrams, controls, connections,
anchorage,and supports. Sufficient level of detail shall be presented for assessment of compliance
with the Contract Documents.
c) Each submittal shall be assigned a unique number. Submittals shall be numbered sequentially,and
the submittal numbers shall be clearly noted on the transmittal. Original submittals shall be
assigned a numeric submittal number (e.g., 25). If submittal"25" requires a resubmittal, the first
resubmittal will bear the designation "25.A" and the second resubmittal will bear the designation
"25.13" and so on.
d) If there is a follow-up submittal related to a previously submitted class of material or type of
equipment (e.g., follow-up submittal to submittal"25"),it shall be assigned the number"25.1". If
submittal"25.1"requires a resubmittal,the first resubmittal will bear the designation "25.1.A" and
the second resubmittal will bear the designation "25.1.13" and so on
5. Disorganized submittals that do not meet the requirements of the Contract Documents will be
returned without review.
6. Except as may otherwise be indicated, the Engineer will return prints of each submittal to the
Contractor with comments noted thereon, within 21 Days following receipt by the Engineer. It is
considered reasonable that the Contractor will make a complete and acceptable submittal to the
Engineer by the first resubmittal on an item. The Owner reserves the right to withhold monies due
to the Contractor to cover additional costs of the Engineer's review beyond the first resubmittal.
Engineer's cost for submittal review beyond the first resubmittal is provided in the Special Provisions.
The Engineer's maximum review period for each submittal or resubmittal will be 21 Days.
7. If a submittal is returned to the Contractor marked "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN," formal revision
and resubmission will not be required.
8. If a submittal is returned marked "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED," Contractor shall make the
corrections on the submittal,but formal revision and resubmission will not be required, except where
specifically required by Engineer as indicated on the submittal review form.
9. If a submittal is returned marked "AMEND-RESUBMIT," the Contractor shall revise it and shall
resubmit the required number of copies to the Engineer for review. Resubmittal of portions of multi-
page or multi-drawing submittals will not be allowed. For example, if a Shop Drawing submittal
consisting of 10 drawings contains one drawing noted as "AMEND -RESUBMIT," the submittal as
a whole is deemed "AMEND -RESUBMIT," and 10 drawings are required to be resubmitted.
41
00150
10. If a submittal is returned marked "REJECTED-RESUBMIT," it shall mean either that the proposed
material or product does not satisfy the specification, the submittal is so incomplete that it cannot be
reviewed, or is a substitution request not submitted in accordance with the General Conditions. In
the first 2 cases, the Contractor shall prepare a new submittal and shall submit the required number
of copies to the Engineer for review. In the latter case, the Contractor shall submit the substitution
request according to the General Conditions.
11. Resubmittal of rejected portions of a previous submittal will not be allowed. Every change from a
submittal to a resubmittal or from a resubmittal to a subsequent resubmittal shall be identified and
flagged on the resubmittal.
12. Fabrication of an item may commence only after the Engineer has reviewed the pertinent submittals
and returned copies to the Contractor marked either "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN" or "MAKE
CORRECTIONS NOTED". Corrections indicated on submittals shall be considered as changes
necessary to meet the requirements of the Contract Documents and shall not be taken as changes to
the Contract requirements.
13. Corrections or comments made on the Contractor's Shop Drawings during review do not relieve the
Contractor from compliance with Contract Drawings and Specifications. Review is for conformance
to the design concept and general compliance with the Contract Documents only. The Contractor is
responsible for confirming and correlating quantities and dimensions, fabrication processes and
techniques, coordinating Work with the trades, and satisfactory and safe performance of the Work.
D. Quality Control (QC) Submittals
1. Quality control submittals are defined as those required by the Specifications to present documentary
evidence to the Engineer that the Contractor has satisfied certain requirements of the Contract
Documents.
2. Unless otherwise indicated, QC submittals shall be submitted:
a) Before delivery and unloading, for the following types of submittals:
• Manufacturers'installation instructions
• Manufacturers' and Installers' experience qualifications
• Ready mix concrete delivery tickets
• Design calculations
• Affidavits and manufacturers'certification of compliance with indicated product requirements
• Laboratory analysis results
• Factory test reports'
b) For the following types of submittals, the manufacturer's field representative shall submit a draft
certification prior to leaving the Project site and a final certification within 7 days of the event
documented.
• Manufacturers' field representative certification of proper installation
c) Within 30 Days of the event documented for the following types of submittals:
• Field measurement
• Field test reports
• Receipt of permit
• Receipt of regulatory approval
42
00150
3. The Engineer will record the date that a QC submittal was received and review it for compliance with
submittal requirements, but the review procedures above for Shop Drawings and samples will not
apply.
E. Deferred Submittals to Agency
1. For the purposes of this section,Deferred Submittals are defined as those portions of the Project that
are Contractor-designed and must be submitted to the Agency's building official for approval and to
meet Building Permit plan review requirements.
2. The Engineer will schedule a pre-submittal conference with the Contractor and Agency's building
official to discuss proposed Deferred Submittal items,requirements, and review schedule.
3. The Contractor shall list the Deferred Submittals on the title or cover sheet of the Drawings for
submission to the Agency and shall state the design criteria/assumptions of the Deferred Submittal
items on the plans. Deferred Submittals shall include details for connection of materials to the
structure and calculations showing that the specified structural requirements are met.
4. The Contractor shall submit Deferred Submittals to the Engineer for review for general conformance
to the design of the structure. Neither the Agency nor the Engineer is responsible for coordination of
Deferred Submittal components with Contract Documents. Review does not lessen nor shift burden
or responsibility from Contractor or assigned subcontractor/supplier to the Agency or Engineer.The
Engineer,upon confirming the Deferred Submittals are in general conformance with the design, shall
forward the Deferred Submittals to the building official. Contractor is responsible,with no exceptions,
to ensure that building official's Deferred Submittal review will not adversely affect Project's
construction schedule.The Deferred Submittal items shall not be installed by the Contractor until the
design and Deferred Submittals have been approved by the building official.
F. Effect of Review of Contractor's Submittals
1. Review of Contract drawings,methods of work, or information regarding materials or equipment the
Contractor proposes to provide, shall not relieve the Contractor of its responsibility for errors therein
and shall not be regarded as an assumption of risks or liability by the Engineer or the Agency, or by
any officer or employee thereof,and the Contractor shall have no claim under the contract on account
of the failure, or partial failure, of the method of work, material, or equipment so reviewed. An
indication of "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN" or "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED" shall mean
that the Agency or Engineer has no objection to the Contractor, upon its own responsibility, using
the plan or method of Work proposed, or providing the materials or equipment proposed.
00150.37 Equipment Lists and Other Submittals -The Contractor shall submit Equipment lists, and
other required submittals for approval by the Engineer. With each submittal, the Contractor shall clearly

Therefore, the Contractor shall monitor and when necessary revise the Project Work schedule as
follows:
85
00180
a) Review with the Engineer-The Contractor shall perform ongoing review of the accepted
Project Work schedule and progress of the Work with the Engineer. If the Engineer or the
Contractor determines that the accepted Project Work schedule no longer represents the
Contractor's own plans or expected time for the Work, a meeting shall be held between the
Engineer and the Contractor. At this meeting, the Contractor and the Engineer shall review
Project events and any changes for their effect on the accepted Project Work schedule. After any
necessary action has been agreed upon,the Contractor shall make required changes to the accepted
Project Work schedule and associated Project narrative. Upon acceptance by the Engineer, this
will become the new accepted Project Work schedule and associated Project narrative.
The Contractor shall collect information on all activities worked on or scheduled to be worked on
during the previous report period, including shop drawings, Material procurement, and Contract
Change Orders that have been issued. Information shall include actual start and completion dates on
activities started or completed, or if still in progress, the remaining time duration.
The Contractor shall develop detailed sub-networks to incorporate changes, Additional Work, and
Extra Work into the Project Work schedule. Detailed sub-networks shall include all necessary
activities and logic connectors to describe the Work and all restrictions on it. The restraints shall
include those activities from the Project Work schedule that initiated the sub-network as well as those
restrained by it. The procedure for acceptance of the revised or updated Project Work schedule as
the new accepted Project Work schedule will be as provided above.
The Contractor shall evaluate this information each month and compare it with the accepted Project
Work schedule. The Contractor shall make an updated bar chart schedule to incorporate the effect
changes may have on the Project completion time(s). For any activity that has started,the Contractor
shall add a symbol to show the actual date the activity started and the number of normal workdays
remaining until completion. For activities that are finished,a symbol shall be added to show the actual
date. The Contractor shall submit, digitally and in paper, copies of the updated bar chart to the
Engineer within 7 Days after the progress meeting, along with a progress report as required by "b."
below.
b) Progress Report - Each month the Contractor shall submit a progress report and an update of
the Project Work schedule to the Engineer. The report and updated schedule shall be submitted
both digitally and in paper copy and shall include the following:
• A sufficient description,in narrative form,to describe the past progress, anticipated activities,
and stage Work;
• A description of any current and expected changes or delaying factors and their effect on the
construction schedule;
• Proposed corrective actions;
• Proposals to keep the Project on schedule in the event of a delay; and
• Any changes to the logic as compared to the accepted Project Work schedule.
D. Substitution of Schedules -When a Type "A" schedule is required, a Type "B" or Type "C" schedule
may be substituted for the Type "A" schedule.
When a Type "B" schedule is required,a Type "C" schedule may be substituted for the Type "B" schedule.
E. Specified Contract Time Not Superseded by Schedule Revisions -The completion dates in any
Project Work schedule and any revised or updated Project Work schedules shall be within the Contract
Time(s) specified for the Project, or within adjusted Contract Times approved according to 00180.80(c).
Acceptance of any Project Work schedule or any revised or updated Project Work schedules shall not
86
00180
constitute approval of any completion dates that exceed such Contract Time(s). If the Contractor believes
that additional Contract Time is due, the Contractor shall submit,with a revised Project Work schedule,
a request for adjustment of Contract Time according to 00180.80(c). A request for an adjustment of
Contract Time will be evaluated using the most recently accepted Project Work schedule.
F. Float Time - Float time shown on the Project Work schedule,including any time between a Contractor's
scheduled completion date and the specified Contract Time(s), does not exist for the exclusive use of
either party to the Contract and belongs to the Project.
G. Schedules Do Not Constitute Notice - Submittal of a Project Work schedule,with supporting Project
narrative, does not constitute or substitute for any notice the Contractor is required under the terms of
the Contract to give the Agency.
H. Failure to Provide Schedule -The Project Work schedule is essential to the Agency. The Contractor's
failure to provide the schedule, schedule information, progress reports, Project narratives, or schedule
updates when required will be cause to suspend the Work,or to withhold Contract payments as necessary
to protect the Agency, until the Contractor provides the required information to the Engineer.
00180.42 Preconstruction Conference - Unless otherwise approved in writing by the Engineer,before any
Work is performed and within 7 Calendar Days of the Notice to Proceed, the Contractor shall meet with the

00180.50 Contract Time to Complete Work:
A. General -The time allowed to complete the Work or Pay Item is stipulated in the Special Provisions,and
will be known as the "Contract Time". (see 00110.20)
B. Kinds of Contract Time -The Contract Time will be expressed in one or more of the following ways
1. Fixed Date Calculation-The calendar date on which the Work or Pay Item shall be completed; or
2. Calendar Day Calculation -The number of Calendar Days from a specified beginning point in
which the Work or Pay Item shall be completed.
3. Work Day Calculation—The number of Work Days from a specified beginning point in which the
Work or Pay item shall be completed.
C. Beginning of Contract Time -When the Contract Time is stated in Calendar Days,counting of Contract
Calendar Days will begin with the first Calendar Day following the date of the Notice to Proceed. When
the Contract Time is stated in Work Days,counting of Contract Work Days will begin with the first Work
day following the date of the Notice to Proceed.
D. Recording Contract Time -All Contract Time will be recorded and charged to the nearest one-half Day.
Contract Times may be extended because of delays in the completion of the Work due to abnormal
weather conditions provided that the Contractor shall, within 10 days of the beginning of such delay,
notify Engineer in writing of the cause of the delay and request an extension of time. Such requests shall
be accompanied with supporting documentation referenced to the NOAA INDEX weather in the Project
vicinity. Engineer will make recommendations to Agency to extend the Contract Times for completing
the Work when,in Engineer's judgment,the findings of facts and extent of delay justify such an extension.
Contractor shall not be entitled to any additional compensation of any kind arising out of or relating to
abnormal weather conditions.
On Contracts with Calendar Day or Work Day counts, the Engineer will furnish the Contractor a weekly
statement of Contract Time charges. The statement will show the number of Calendar Days counted for
the preceding week and the number of Calendar Days remaining prior to the established completion date.
For Contracts with fixed completion dates or fixed milestone completion dates for Pay Items, the
Engineer will furnish the Contractor a weekly statement of Contract Time charges only after expiration
of the Contract Time. The statement will show the number of Calendar Days of liquidated damages that
have been assessed,if any.
These statements will include any exclusions from, or adjustments to, Contract Time.
E. Exclusions from Contract Time - Regardless of the way Contract Time is expressed in the Contract,
certain Calendar Days will not be charged against Contract Time. These exclusions will be allowed when
the Contractor is prevented from performing Work due to one of the following reasons,resulting in delay:
1. Acts of God or Nature;
2. Court orders enjoining prosecution of the Work;
3. Strikes, labor disputes or freight embargoes that, despite the Contractor's reasonable efforts to avoid
them, cause a shutdown of the entire Project or one or more major operations. "Strike" and "labor
dispute" may include union action against the Contractor,a Subcontractor,a Materials supplier,or the
Agency; or
89
00180
4. Suspension of the Work by written order of the Engineer for reasons other than the Contractor's
failure or neglect.
F. Time Calculation Protest -In the event the Contractor disputes the accuracy of the statement of
Contract Time charges, it shall immediately contact the Engineer and attempt to resolve the dispute. If
the dispute cannot be resolved informally, the Contractor shall submit a formal written protest to the
Engineer within 7 Calendar Days of the date the Engineer mailed or delivered the statement. Failure to
submit a formal written protest within the 7 Calendar Day period constitutes the Contractor's approval of
the time charges, or adjusted time charges,itemized in the statement.
G. End of Contract Time -When the Engineer determines that the On-Site Work has been completed,
except for the items listed below, the Engineer will issue a Second Notification.
The Second Notification will list:
1. The date the time charges stopped;
2. Final trimming and cleanup tasks (see 00140.90);
3. Equipment to be removed from the Project Site;
4. Minor corrective work (punch list); and
5. Submittals, including without limitation all required certifications, bills, forms, warranties, certificate
of insurance coverage (00170.70), and other documents, required to be provided to the Engineer

the time frame specified for Final Completion.
00180.60 Notice of Delay-The Contractor shall notify the Engineer of any delay that will likely prevent
completion of the Work or a Pay Item by the date specified in the Project Work schedule. The notice shall
be in writing and shall be submitted within 7 Calendar Days of when the Contractor knew or should have
known of the delay. The notice shall include, to the extent available, the following:
A. The reasons or causes for the delay;
B. The estimated duration of the delay and the estimated resulting cumulative delay in Contract completion;
C. Except for 00180.50E and 00180.65 delays, whether or not the Contractor expects to request an
adjustment of Contract Time due to the delay;
D. Whether or not the Contractor expects to accelerate due to the delay; and
E. Whether or not the Contractor expects to request additional compensation due to the delay. Except for
00180.50E and 00180.65 delays, failure to include this information will constitute waiver of the
Contractor's right to later make such a request.
00180.65 Rights-of-Way and Access Delays -Right-of-Way and access delays will be taken into
consideration in adjusting Contract Time, and in approving additional compensation if the performance of
the Work is delayed because of the Agency's failure to make available to the Contractor:
A. Necessary Rights-of-Way;
B. Agency-owned or Agency-controlled Materials sources that are offered in the Contract for the
Contractor's use; or
C. Access to, or rights of occupancy of,buildings and other properties the Contractor is required to enter or
to disturb according to Contract requirements.
If the duration and time period of an anticipated delay is stated in the Special Provisions, only the delay
occurring beyond that duration and time period will be considered for adjusting Contract Time or providing
additional compensation.
90
00180
00180.70 Suspension of Work:
A. General -The Engineer has authority to suspend the Work, or part of the Work, for any of the following
causes:
1. Failure of the Contractor to correct unsafe conditions;
2. Failure of the Contractor to carry out any provision of the Contract;
3. Failure of the Contractor to carry out orders issued by the Engineer, the Agency, or any regulatory
authority;

Engineer's written authorization.
B. Contractor's Responsibilities during and after Suspension -During periods of suspension of the
Work,the Contractor shall continue to be responsible for protecting and repairing the Work according to
00170.80, and for ensuring that a single designated representative responsible for the Project remains
available according to 00150.40B.
When Work is resumed after suspension,unless otherwise specified in the Contract, the Contractor shall
perform the following at no additional compensation:
1. Replace or repair any Work,Materials,and Equipment to be incorporated into the Work that was lost
or damaged because of the temporary use of the Project Site by the public; and
2. Remove Materials, Equipment, and temporary construction necessitated by temporary maintenance
during the suspension, as directed by the Engineer.
C. Compensation and Allowances for Suspension - Compensation and allowance of additional Contract
Time due to suspension of any portion of the Work will be authorized only for Agency-initiated
suspensions for reasons other than the Contractor's failure or neglect. (refer to 00180.50(e),00180.65,and
00195.40)
00180.80 Adjustment of Contract Time:
A. General - Contract Time established for the Work will be subject to adjustment, either by increase or
decrease, for causes beyond the control of the Contractor, according to the terms of this Subsection.
After adjustment, the Contract Time will become, and be designated as, the "Adjusted Contract Time".
Except as provided in 00180.65 and 00195.40, an adjustment of Contract Time shall be the Contractor's
only remedy for any delay arising from causes beyond the control of the Contractor.
B. Contractor's Request Not Required -The Engineer may increase or decrease the Contract Time or the
Adjusted Contract Time if Change Orders or Extra Work orders issued actually increase or decrease the
amount of time required to perform the Work. The Engineer may also increase Contract Time in the
event of Right-of-Way and Access delays (see 00180.65), and those delays due to causes beyond the
Contractor's control specified in 00180.50E. The Engineer will promptly inform the Contractor of
adjustments made to Contract Time according to this Subsection, and will include the reasons for
adjustment.
If the Agency anticipates delay during performance of the Contract, and specifies its expected duration
and time period in the Special Provisions, the Engineer will only consider additional delay beyond the
stipulated duration and time period in determining whether to adjust Contract Time.
91
00180
C. Contractor's Request Required -In the event the Contractor believes that additional Contract Time is
due, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer a timely request for adjustment of Contract Time. The
Engineer will not consider untimely requests. The Agency regards as timely only those requests for
adjustment of Contract Time that:
1. Accompany a proposed revised Project Work schedule submitted according to 00180.41, for
comparison with the last revision of the Project Work schedule; or
2. Are not otherwise deemed waived and are submitted within 15 Days after the date of Second
Notification,if Second Notification has been issued.
The Engineer will not grant an adjustment of Contract Time for events that occurred prior to the date of
the last revision of the Project Work schedule. The Engineer will not authorize, nor the Agency pay,
acceleration costs incurred by the Contractor prior to its submittal of a request for adjustment of Contract
Time to which the acceleration costs relate.
The Contractor's request for adjustment of Contract Time shall be submitted to the Engineer on a form
provided by, or in a format acceptable to, the Engineer, and shall include a copy of the written notice
required under 00180.60. The request shall include without limitation:
1. Consent of the Contractor's Surety if the request totals more than 30 Calendar Days of additional
Contract Time;
2. Sufficient detail for the Engineer to evaluate the asserted justification for the amount of additional
Contract Time requested;
3. The cause of each delay for which additional Contract Time is requested, together with supporting
analysis and data;
4. Reference to the Contract provision allowing Contract Time adjustment for each cause of delay;
5. The actual or expected duration of delay resulting from each cause of delay, expressed in Calendar
Days;and
6. A schedule analysis based on the current approved Project Work schedule for each cause of delay,
indicating which activities are involved and their impact on Contract completion.
D. Basis for Adjustment of Contract Time - In the adjustment of Contract Time, the Engineer will
consider causes that include, but are not limited to:
1. Failure of the Agency to submit the Contract and bond forms to the Contractor for execution within
the time stated in 00130.50, or to submit the Notice to Proceed within the time stated in 00130.90;
2. Errors, changes, or omissions in the Supplemental Drawings, quantities, or Specifications;
3. Performance of Extra Work;
4. Failure of the Agency or Entities acting for the Agency to act promptly in carrying out Contract duties
and obligations;
5. Acts or omissions of the Agency or Entities acting for the Agency that result in unreasonable delay
referenced in 00195.40;
6. Causes cited in 00180.50(e); and
7. Right-of-way and access delays referenced in 00180.65.
The Engineer will not consider requests for adjustment of Contract Time based on any of the following:
1. Contentions that insufficient Contract Time was originally specified in the Contract;
2. Delays that do not affect the specified or Adjusted Contract Time;
3. Delays that affect the Contractor's planned early completion, but that do not affect the specified or
adjusted Contract Time;
4. Shortage or inadequacy of Materials, Equipment or labor;
5. Work stoppage required by the Engineer to determine the extent of Work defects
92
00180
6. Time for the Contractor to correct the Work defects from date of notification of the defects until the
correction work is completed and has been approved by the Engineer.
7. Late delivery of Materials and Equipment to be incorporated into the Work, except under those
conditions referenced in 00180.50(e);
8. Different area of Material source in 00160.40(a);
9. Substitution of Equipment in 00180.31(c);
10. Reasonably predictable weather conditions; or
11. Other matters within the Contractor's control or Contract responsibility.
E. Consideration and Response by Agency-The Engineer will only consider a Contractor's request for
Contract Time adjustment submitted according to the requirements of 00180.80C. The Engineer may
elect not to consider claimed delays that do not affect the specified or adjusted Contract Time required to
complete the Work.
The Engineer may adjust Contract Time for causes not specifically identified by the Contractor in its
request.
The Engineer will review a properly submitted request for Contract Time adjustment, and within a
reasonable time will advise the Contractor of the Engineer's findings. If the Contractor disagrees with the
Engineer's findings, the Contractor may request review according to the procedure specified in 00199.40.
00180.85 Failure to Complete on Time;Liquidated Damages:
A. Time is of the Essence -Time is of the essence in the Contractor's performance of the Contract. Delays
in the Contractor's performance of the Work may inconvenience the traveling public, interfere with
business and commerce,and increase cost to the Agency. It is essential and in the public interest that the
Contractor prosecute the Work vigorously to Contract completion.
The Agency does not waive any rights under the Contract by permitting the Contractor to continue to
perform the Contract, or any part of it, after the Contract Time or adjusted Contract Time has expired.
B. Liquidated Damages -The Agency will sustain damage if the Work is not completed within the specified
Contract Time. However, in certain Agency projects it may be unduly burdensome and difficult to
demonstrate the exact dollar value of such damages. The Agency will identify such projects in the Special
Provisions related to them. In these projects,the Contractor agrees to pay to the Agency,not as a penalty
but as liquidated damages, the amount specified in the Special Provisions for each Calendar Day the
Contractor expends performing the Contract in excess of the Contract Time or adjusted Contract Time.
Payment by the Contractor of liquidated damages does not release the Contractor from its obligation to
fully and timely perform the Contract according to its terms. Nor does acceptance of liquidated damages
by the Agency constitute a waiver of the Agency's right to collect any additional damages it may sustain
by reason of the Contractor's failure to fully perform the Contract according to its terms. The liquidated
damages shall constitute payment in full only of damages incurred by the Agency due to the Contractor's
failure to complete the Work on time.
If the Contract is terminated according to 00180.90A, and if the Work has not been completed by other
means on or before the expiration of Contract Time or adjusted Contract Time, liquidated damages will
be assessed against the Contractor for the duration of time reasonably required to complete the Work.
00180.90 Termination of Contract and Substituted Performance:
A. Termination for Default -Termination of the Contract for default may result if the Contractor:
93
00180
1. Fails to comply with the requirements for records;
2. Violates any material provision of the Contract;
3. Disregards applicable laws and regulations or the Engineer's instructions;
4. Refuses or fails to supply enough Materials,Equipment or skilled workers for prosecution of the Work
in compliance with the Contract;
5. Fails to make prompt payment to Subcontractors;
6. Makes an unauthorized general assignment for the benefit of the Contractor's creditors;
7. Has a receiver appointed because of the Contractor's insolvency;
8. Is adjudged bankrupt and the court consents to the Contract termination; or
9. Otherwise fails or refuses to faithfully perform the Contract according to its terms and conditions.
If the Contract is terminated by the Agency, upon demand the Contractor and the Contractor's Surety
shall provide the Engineer with immediate and peaceful possession of the Project Site,and of all Materials
and Equipment to be incorporated into the Work,whether located on and off the Project Site, for which
the Contractor received progress payments under 00195.50.
If the Contract is terminated for default,neither the Contractor nor its Surety shall be:
1. Relieved of liability for damages or losses suffered by the Agency because of the Contractor's breach
of Contract; or
2. Entitled to receive any further progress payments until the Work is completed. However, progress
payments for completed Work that remain due and owing at the time of Contract termination may
be made according to the terms of 00195.70, except that the Engineer will be entitled to withhold
sufficient funds to cover costs incurred by the Agency as a result of the termination. Final payment
to the Contractor will be made according to the provisions of Section 00195.
If a termination under this provision is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unjustified,
the termination shall be deemed a termination for public convenience.
B. Substituted Performance -According to the Agency's procedures, and upon the Engineer's
recommendation that sufficient cause exists, the Agency, without prejudice to any of its other rights or
remedies and after giving the Contractor and the Contractor's Surety 10 Calendar Days' written notice,
may:
1. Terminate the Contract;
2. Substitute the Contractor with another Entity to complete the Contract;
3. Take possession of the Project Site;
4. Take possession of Materials on the Project Site;
5. Take possession of Materials not on the Project Site, for which the Contractor received progress
payments under 00195.50;
6. Take possession of Equipment on the Project Site that is to be incorporated into the Work;
7. Take possession of Equipment not on the Project Site that is to be incorporated into the Work, and
for which the Contractor received progress payments under 00195.70; and
8. Finish the Work by whatever method the Agency deems expedient.
If, within the 10 Calendar Day notice period provided above, the Contractor and/or its Surety corrects
the basis for declaration of default to the satisfaction of the Engineer,or if the Contractor's Surety submits
a proposal for correction that is acceptable to the Engineer, the Contract will not be terminated.
C. Termination for Public Convenience -The Engineer may terminate the Contract for convenience in
whole or in part whenever the Engineer determines that termination of the Contract is in the best interest
of the public and for,but not limited to, the following reasons:
94
00180
1. If work under the Contract is suspended by an order of a public agency for any reason considered to
be in the public interest other than by a labor dispute or by reason of any third party judicial
proceeding relating to the Work other than a suit or action filed in regard to a labor dispute; or
2. If the circumstances or conditions are such that it is impracticable within a reasonable time to
proceed with a substantial portion of the Contract; or;
3. If Agency funding from federal, state,local, or other sources is not obtained and continued at levels
sufficient to allow for the purchase of the indicated quantity of services. This Contract may be
modified to accommodate a reduction in funds; or
4. If Federal or State regulations or guidelines are modified, changed, or interpreted in such a way that
the services are no longer allowable or appropriate for purchase under this Contract,
The Engineer will provide the Contractor and the Contractor's Surety 7 Calendar Days' written notice of
termination for public convenience. After such notice, the Contractor and the Contractor's Surety shall
provide the Engineer with immediate and peaceful possession of the Project Site, and of Materials and
Equipment to be incorporated into the Work, whether located on and off the Project Site, for which the
Contractor received progress payments under 00195.50.
Termination under any provision of this paragraph shall not affect any right, obligation, or liability of
Contractor or Agency,which accrued prior to such termination.
If the Contract is terminated for public convenience, neither the Contractor nor its Surety shall be relieved
of liability for damages or losses suffered by the Agency as a result of defective, unacceptable or
unauthorized Work completed or performed.
Compensation for Work terminated by the Engineer under this provision will be determined according to
the provisions of 00195.70B.
95
00190
Section 00190 -Measurement of Pay Quantities
00190.00 Scope -The Engineer will measure pay quantities for accepted Work according to the United States
standard measure unless otherwise provided in the Contract. Unless otherwise specified in the Contract, the
Engineer will round off all quantity computations using the following convention:
• The final significant digit will not be changed when the succeeding digit is less than 5.
• The final significant digit will be increased by one when the succeeding digit is 5 or greater.
The measurement provisions contained in the Specifications for each Pay Item will supplement or modify the
above convention by:
• Imposing measurement limitations
• Describing measurement or computation procedures
• Giving conversion factors or adjustment conditions
• Providing for determination of reasonably accurate and representative Pay Item quantities
Measurements required or allowed to be made by the Contractor will be subject to the Engineer's verification.
The Engineer's decision about measurement is final.
00190.10 Measurement Guidelines -Measurement of quantities will be made on the following bases,unless
otherwise specified in the Contract.
A. Unit Basis -Unit will be each, unless otherwise specified in the Contract and will be determined by
actual count of units in place.
B. Length Basis -Length will be feet or mile, unless otherwise specified in the Contract and will be
determined by measuring the length at least to the nearest 0.1 foot or at least to the nearest 0.1 mile, as
applicable,unless otherwise specified in the Contract. Measurements will be limited to the dimensions
shown or specified, or as directed by the Engineer.
C. Area Basis -Area will be square foot, square yard, or acre, unless otherwise specified in the Contract
and will be determined by measuring the width and the length (or height) at least to the nearest 0.1 foot
and computed at least to the nearest 0.1 square foot, nearest 0.1 square yard, or nearest 0.1 acre, as
applicable,unless otherwise specified in the Contract.
D. Weight Basis -Weight will be pound or ton, unless otherwise specified in the Contract and will be
determined as follows:
1. Pound - Pound weight will be determined by the net weight identified on the manufacturer's
packaged labels, subject to periodic check weighing. Weight by pound will be measured at least to
the nearest 1.0 pound unless otherwise specified in the Contract.
Provide a certificate with each shipment together with a certified copy of the weight of each delivery. If
the check weight is less than the manufacturer weight by more than 0.4%,the discrepancy will be resolved
by the Engineer.
2. Ton -Ton weight will be determined on Contractor-provided scales as required under 00190.20
unless otherwise allowed by the Specifications. Weight by ton will be measured at least to the nearest
0.01 ton unless otherwise specified in the Contract.
96
00190
If bituminous materials, Portland cement, lime, and similar bulk Materials are shipped by truck or rail,
the supplier's shipping invoice with net scale weights, or volumes converted to weights,may be used for
Pay Item quantity determination in place of weights determined on the Contractor-provided vehicle
scales.
Shipping invoice weights of the supplier's truck or transport shall be subject to periodic check weighing
on the Contractor's vehicle scales, or other scales designated,according to 00190.20. If the check weight
is less than the supplier weight by more than 0.4%,the discrepancy will be resolved by the Engineer.
No payment will be made:
• For quantities in excess of the supplier weight
• When Materials have been lost,wasted, or otherwise not incorporated into the Work
• For additional hauling costs resulting from the check weighing
E. Volume Basis -Volume will be cubic yard truck measure or in-place measure, gallons, foot board
measure (FBM), or thousand foot board measure (MFBM), unless otherwise specified in the Contract
and will be measured at least to the nearest 0.1 cubic yard,nearest 1.0 gallon,nearest 0.1 FBM,or nearest
0.1 MFBM, as applicable,unless otherwise specified in the Contract.
Truck measure will be the measured and calculated maximum "water level" capacity of the vehicle.
Quantities will be determined at the point of delivery, with no allowance for settlement of Material
during transit. When required to facilitate measurement, the vehicle load shall be leveled at the point
of delivery. Payment will not be made for Material in excess of the maximum "water level" capacity.
Deductions will be made for loads below the maximum "water level" capacity.
When bituminous materials are measured by volume, the volume will be measured at 60°F or will be
corrected to the volume at 60°F using the correction factors found in the MFTP (C)DOT TM 321).
F. Time Basis -Time will be hour, Day, or year, unless otherwise specified in the Contract, and will be
measured to at least the nearest 0.5 hour, nearest 1.0 Day, or nearest 1.0 year, as applicable, unless
otherwise specified in the Contract.
G. Standard Manufactured Items -If standard manufactured items, such as fence, wire, plates, rolled
shapes,pipe, conduit and other similar items are specified in the Contract by properties such as gauge,
unit weight, or section dimensions, the manufacturing tolerances established by the industry involved
will be accepted unless more stringent tolerances are cited in the Contract.
H. Lump Sum Basis - Lump sum,when used,means the Work described shall be completed and accepted
without measurement unless changes are ordered in writing by the Engineer.
00190.20 Contractor to Provide Vehicle Weigh Scales:
A. General-If the Specifications require measurement by weighing on vehicle weigh scales, the
Contractor shall provide vehicle weigh scales and shall transport Materials to the scales. Subject to the
Engineer's approval,weights may be determined by plant or hopper scales according to 00190.30.
Contractor-provided scales shall be furnished, installed and maintained by the Contractor or its
supplier, or, subject to the Engineer's approval,may be commercial scales located in the vicinity of the
Project.
97
00190
Unless otherwise provided in the Contract, Pay Items to be measured by weight shall include all
Contractor costs for providing, maintaining, inspecting, and testing scales; for furnishing appropriate
weigh tickets; for self-printing scales; and for transporting Materials to the scales or to check weighing.
B. Requirements -The scales shall conform to ORS 618,or the laws of the state in which they are located,
and NIST Handbook 44, and shall be:
• Licensed by the Oregon Department of Agriculture, or by the analogous regulatory body for scales
located outside the State;
• Technically suitable for weighing the Materials;
• Properly installed and maintained; and
• Accurate to the required tolerances.
The weight of any Materials weighed by anyone other than the Engineer will be subject to check
weighing as the Engineer directs.
C. Approaches -Vehicle scale approaches shall be:
• At each end of the scale platform;
• Straight and in line with the platform; and
• Long enough to accommodate combination vehicles longer than the scale platform so that they are
level and allow release of brakes before weighing.
D. Inspections - Contractor shall have all scales certified, that is inspected and their accuracy tested, by
the Oregon Department of Agriculture, an analogous regulatory body for scales located outside the
State, or a scale service company as follows:
• Before use if installed at a new site;
• 60 Calendar Days after initial inspection;
• Every 6 months thereafter; and
• When the Engineer directs additional inspections.
No Materials weighed on scales without current certifications according to this Subsection will be
accepted. The Contractor shall provide a copy of all required certifications to the Engineer.
Testing by a scale service company within the State of Oregon shall comply with ORS 618.
If additional inspections directed by the Engineer confirm that the scale accuracy is within the required
tolerances,the Agency will pay the cost for inspecting and testing the scales. If the scale accuracy is not
within these tolerances, the Contractor shall pay the cost for inspecting and testing the scales.
E. Inspection Results -If an inspection indicates the scales have been under-weighing (indicating less
than the true weight), the Agency will make no additional payment to the Contractor for Materials
previously weighed.
If an inspection indicates the scales have been over-weighing(indicating more than the true weight),the
weights will be reduced for Materials received after the time the Engineer determines the overweighing
began or, if that is not possible, after the last acceptable certification of the scales. The reduction will
be the amount of error in excess of the 0.2%maintenance tolerance allowed in the Contract.
98
00190
F. Contractor-Provided Weigh Technician -The Contractor shall provide a technician to operate
Contractor-provided vehicle weigh scales. The Agency may observe procedures and require check
weighing according to the following:
1. Scale with Automatic Printer- If the scales have an automatic weigh memo printer that does not
require manual entry of gross weight information, the Agency may periodically have a representative
at the scales to observe the weighing procedures. In addition, the Engineer may periodically check
the weight for a load of Materials by directing the haul vehicle to reweigh on a different scale that has
been inspected and certified according to 00190.20(b) and 00190.20(d).
If a different scale is not available within a 30 mile round trip from the regular haul route the Agency
will allow check weighing on an approved alternate basis. Check weights within 0.4% of the
Contractor-provided weight are acceptable.
The Engineer will resolve discrepancies found by check weighing. Agency employee costs will be
paid by the Agency. The Contractor shall pay all other costs resulting from the check weighings,
including without limitation the use of other scales.
If more than 50 tons per Day of all types of Materials are received from a scale, the Contractor shall
make random check weighings at least every tenth Day on which more than 50 tons is received or at
each interval that 10,000 tons has been weighed, whichever occurs first, or as directed by the
Engineer.The Contractor shall make at least one check weighing on projects where more than 2,000
tons of all types of Materials are received from a scale. The Contractor shall provide the Engineer
with the results of the check weighing.
2. Scale Without Automatic Printer-If the scales require manual entry of gross weight information,
the Agency may periodically have a representative weigh witness at the scales to observe the weighing
procedures. The Contractor shall inform the Engineer of his intent to use a scale without an
automatic printer at least 3 working Days before weighing begins or before the Contractor changes
to a scale that does not have an automatic printer. The Contractor shall pay costs for the weigh
witness. The hourly cost of the weigh witness will be as stated in the Special Provisions. In addition,
the Engineer may periodically check the weight for a load of Materials by directing the haul vehicle
to reweigh on a different scale that has been inspected and certified according to 00190.20(b) and
00190.20(d).
If a different scale is not available within a 30 mile round trip from the regular haul route the Agency
will allow check weighing on an approved alternate basis. Check weights within 0.4% of the
Contractor-provided weight are acceptable.
The Engineer will resolve discrepancies found by check weighing. Agency employee costs for check
weighings will be paid by the Agency. The Contractor shall pay all other costs resulting from the
check weighings,including without limitation the use of other scales.
If more than 50 tons per Day of all types of Materials are received from a scale, the Contractor shall
make random check weighings at least every tenth day on which more than 50 tons is received or at
each interval that 10,000 tons has been weighed, whichever occurs first, or as directed by the
Engineer. The Contractor shall make at least one check weighing on all projects where materials are
received from a scale without an automatic printer. The Contractor shall provide the Engineer with
the results of the check weighing.
99
00190
3. Duties of Weigh Technician - The Contractor's weigh technician shall:
• Determine twice a Day, or as otherwise directed by the Engineer, the empty haul weights (tare
weights) of hauling vehicles,unless vehicles are tared before each load;
• Furnish daily a listing of the tare weights if 10 or more loads are hauled during that Day;
• Furnish a note listing the net weight for each consecutive ten loads with the following load;
• Furnish a daily listing of the net weights and total weight for each type of Material hauled during
that Day; and
• Furnish a legible, serially numbered weigh memo for each load of Materials to the Agency's
Materials receiver at the point of delivery,or as directed by the Engineer. The memo shall identify
the Project, the Materials, the date, net weight (gross and tare as appropriate),and identification
of vehicle, driver and weigh technician.
G. Agency-Provided Weigh Technician-If the Contractor provides vehicle weigh scales without a
weigh technician meeting the requirements of this Subsection, the Agency will provide a weigh
technician at the Contractor's expense. The hourly cost for the weigh technician will be as stated in the
Special Provisions. The Contractor shall provide a weighhouse for the weigh technician according to
Section 00205. The Agency's weigh technician will:
• Determine tare weights;
• Prepare weigh memos for each load;
• Compile the weigh records; and
• Not participate in the production of Materials or the loading of haul vehicles.
00190.30 Plant Scales -The Contractor, with the Engineer's written approval, may weigh plant-mixed
Materials on scales that have either:
• An automatic weight batching and mixing control printer system; or
• A weigh hopper printer system.
Any additional costs resulting from the use of these scales shall be borne by the Contractor. Check weighing
will be done according to 00190.20F.
Except for 00190.20C regarding approaches, the Contractor's use of plant scales shall comply with all
provisions of 00190.20.
The Engineer's approval for the Contractor's use of plant scales to determine pay weights will be rescinded if
check weighing or scale inspections indicate the scales do not consistently determine weights within the
tolerances allowed by state law.
100
00195
Section 00195 —Payment
00195.00 Scope and Limit:
A. General-The Agency will pay only for measured Pay Item quantities incorporated into the Work or
performed according to the terms of the Contract. The Contractor understands and agrees that Pay
Item quantities listed in the Schedule of Items do not govern payment.
Payment constitutes full compensation to the Contractor for furnishing all Materials,Equipment,labor,
and Incidentals necessary to complete the Work; and for risk, loss, damage, and expense arising from
the nature or prosecution of the Work or from the action of the elements, subject to the provisions of
00170.80. The Contractor shall include the costs of bonds and insurance for the Project in the unit
price for each Pay Item of Work to be performed.
B. Essential or Incidental Materials or Work-When the Specifications state that the unit price for a
Pay Item is compensation for certain Materials or Work essential or Incidental to the Pay Item, the
same Materials or Work will not be measured or paid under any other Pay Item.
00195.10 Payment For Changes in Materials Costs - On certain projects, as identified in the Special
Provisions, an escalation/de-escalation clause with respect to asphalt cement will be in effect during the life
of the Contract.
00195.13 Asphalt Cement Material Price Escalation/De-Escalation Clause—Subsections 00195.13A,
00195.13B, 00195.13C, and 00195.13D contain the price escalation/de-escalation clause relating to asphalt
cement materials (as defined in 00195.13D).
A. Monthly Asphalt Cement Material Price (MACMP) -The Monthly Asphalt Cement Material Price
(MACMP) will be established by the Agency each month and will be based on the published prices of
PG 64 22 asphalt cement furnished by Poten & Partners, Inc. The MACMP will be based on the
average prices for the Pacific Northwest,Portland Oregon area. Each MACMP for a given month will
be the average of the published prices for that MACMP for each Friday in that month. For information
regarding the calculation of the MACMP, and for the actual MACMP,go to the ODOT website at:
http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/HWY/Business/Pages/Asphalt-Fuel-Price.asl2
If the ODOT selected index ceases to be available for any reason,the Agency in its discretion will select
and begin using a substitute price source or index to establish the MACMP each month. The MACMP
will apply to all asphalt cement including but not limited to paving grade, polymer modified, and
emulsified asphalts, and recycling agents. The Agency does not guarantee that asphalt cement will be
available at the MACMP.
B. Base Asphalt Cement Material Price (Base) -The Base price for this Project is the MACMP
published on the ODOT website for the month immediately preceding the bid opening date.
C. Monthly Asphalt Cement Adjustment Factor-The Monthly Asphalt Cement Adjustment Factor
will be detem-iined each month as follows:
• If the MACMP is within ± 5% of the Base, there will be no adjustment.
• If the MACMP is more than 105% of the Base,then:
Adjustment Factor = (MACMP) - (1.05 x Base)
• If the MACMP is less than 95% of the Base, then:
Adjustment Factor = (MACMP) - (0.95 x Base)
101
00195
D. Asphalt Cement Price Adjustment- If specified in the Special Provisions, an asphalt cement
escalation/de-escalation clause will be in effect during the life of the Contract. A price adjustment will
be made for each pay item in the bid schedule containing asphalt cement. The price adjustment as
calculated in 00195.13C above will use the MACMP for the month the asphalt is incorporated into the
Project. The price adjustment will be determined by multiplying the asphalt incorporated during the
month for subject Pay Items by the Adjustment Factor. The Agency reserves all of its rights under the
Contract, including, but not limited to, its rights for suspension of the Work under 00180.70 and its
rights for termination of the Contract under 00 180.90,and this escalation/de-escalation provision shall
not limit those rights.
00195.20 Changes to Plans or Character of Work:
A. Insignificant Changed Work- If the changes made under 00140.30 do not significantly change the
character, quantity or unit cost of the Work to be performed under the Contract, the Agency will pay
for such work at the Pay Item price.
B. Significant Changed Work- If the changes made under 00140.30 significantly alter the character,unit
cost, or lump sum cost of the Work, the Agency will adjust the Contract. The Contractor shall not be
entitled to compensation for any loss in profits resulting from elimination of, reduction of, or other
change to, a part of the Work.
Any such adjustments may be less than,but will not be more than the amount justified by the Engineer
on the basis of the established procedures set out in Section 00197 for determining rates for Extra Work,
but those procedures shall account for the decrease or elimination of Work as well as for increases in
the Work. This does not limit the application of Section 00199.
The term "Significant Changed Work" shall apply only to that circumstance in which the character of
the Work, as changed, differs materially in kind, nature, or unit cost from that involved or included in
the originally proposed construction.
For purposes of this Section, "Significant"is defined as:
1. An increase or decrease of more than 25 percent of the total cost of the Work calculated from the
original proposal quantities and the unit contract prices; or,
2. An increase or decrease of more than 25 percent in the quantity of any one major contract item.
For condition 2 above, a major item is defined as any item that amounts to 10 percent or more of the
original total contract price.
00195.30 Differing Site Conditions -Upon written notification, as required in 00140.40, the Engineer will
investigate the identified conditions. If the Engineer determines that the conditions are differing Project site
conditions under 00140.40 and cause an increase or decrease in the cost or time required to perform any Work
under the Contract, an adjustment in the Contract Amount or Contract Time, excluding loss of anticipated
profits, will be made, and the Contract modified accordingly, in writing. The Engineer will notify the
Contractor as to whether or not an adjustment of the Contract is warranted.
No Contract adjustment which benefits the Contractor will be allowed unless the Contractor has provided
the required written notice. Any such adjustments will be made according to 00195.20.
00195.40 Unreasonable Delay by the Agency-If the Contractor believes that performance of all or any
portion of the Work is suspended,delayed,or interrupted for an unreasonable period of time in excess of that
originally anticipated or customary in the construction industry, due to acts or omissions of the Agency, or
102
00195
persons acting for the Agency, and that additional compensation, Contract Time, or both, are due the
Contractor because of the suspension, delay or interruption, the Contractor shall immediately file a written
notice of delay according to 00180.60. The Contractor shall then promptly submit a properly supported
request for any additional compensation, Contract Time, or both, according to the applicable provisions in
00180.60 through 00180.80 and Section 00199.
The Engineer will promptly evaluate a properly submitted request for additional compensation. If the
Engineer determines that the delay was unreasonable,and that the cost required for the Contractor to perform
the Contract has increased as a result of the unreasonable suspension, delay or interruption,the Engineer will
make an equitable adjustment,excluding profit,and modify the Contract in writing accordingly. The Engineer
will notify the Contractor of the determination and whether an adjustment to the Contract is warranted.
Under this provision, no Contract adjustment will be allowed
• Unless the Contractor has provided the written notice required by 00180.60;
• For costs incurred more than 10 Calendar Days before the Engineer receives the Contractor's properly
submitted written request;
• For any portion of a delay that the Engineer deems to be a reasonable delay,or for which an adjustment
is provided for or excluded under other terms of the Contract; or
• To the extent that performance would nevertheless have been suspended, delayed or interrupted by
causes other than those described in this Subsection.
00195.50 Progress Payments and Retained Amounts:
A. Progress Payments -The Agency's payment of progress payments, or determination of satisfactory
completion of Pay Items or Work or release of retainage under 00195.50(d), shall not be construed as
Final Acceptance or approval of any part of the Work, and shall not relieve the Contractor of
responsibility for defective Materials or workmanship or for latent defects and warranty obligations.
The estimates upon which progress payments are based are not represented to be accurate estimates.
All estimated quantities are subject to correction in the final estimate. If the Contractor uses these
estimates as a basis for making payments to Subcontractors, the Contractor assumes all risk and bears
any losses that result.
Progress payments shall be determined through the use of forms developed by the Engineer.
1. Progress Estimates -At the same time each month, the Engineer will make an estimate of the
amount and value of Pay Item Work completed. The amount of Work completed will be the
sum of the estimated number of units completed for unit price Pay Items plus the estimated
percentage completed of lump sum Pay Items.
The estimated value of the Work completed will be determined by using the Contract unit price for
unit price Pay Items, and by using one of the following methods to determine the value of the lump
sum Pay Items:
• A Contractor-submitted, Engineer-approved Schedule of Values; or
• Engineer's determination,when there is no approved, Contractor-submitted Schedule of Values.
The amounts to be allowed for lump sum Pay Items in progress payments will not exceed the
reasonable value of the Work performed, as determined by the Engineer.
103
00195
Incidentals such as formwork, falsework, shoring, and cribbing shall be included in the unit prices
for the various Pay Items requiring their use, unless specified as a separate Pay Item. No payment
will be made for Pay Items that include Incidentals until units or portions of such Pay Item Work are
in place and completed. The costs of Incidentals will be paid in proportion to the percentage of Pay
Item Work completed.
2. Value of Materials on Hand -If payment for Materials on Hand is allowed in the Special
Provisions, the Engineer will also make an estimate of the amount and value of acceptable
Materials on Hand,i.e., already delivered and stored according to 00195.60(a),to be incorporated
into the Work.
3. Value of Work Accomplished-The sum of the values in (1) and (2) above will be collectively
referred to in this Subsection as the "value of Work accomplished", subject to (4) below.
4. Limitations on Value of Work Accomplished- In determining the "value of Work
accomplished",the Engineer's estimate will be based on the unit prices for the various Pay Items.
Any amounts not included in progress payments due to substantial mathematical unbalancing of
Pay Item prices will be included in the final payment issued according to 00195.90B.
5. Reductions to Progress Payments -With each progress payment, the Contractor will receive a
Contract payment voucher and summary setting forth the value of Work accomplished reduced
by the following:
• Amounts previously paid;
• Amounts deductible or owed to the Agency for any cause specified in the Contract;
• Additional amounts retained to protect the Agency's interests according to Subsection (e) below.
B. Retainage -The amount to be retained from progress payments will be 5% of the value of Work
accomplished, and will be retained in one of the forms specified in Subsection (c) below.
As provided in 00170.65,13.3(a) additional retainage of 25% of amounts earned will be withheld and
released according to ORS 279C.845 when the Contractor fails to file the certified statements required
in ORS 279C.845,FHWA Form 1273, and 00170.65.
C. Forms of Retainage -Moneys retained by the Agency under ORS 279C.570(7) shall be retained in a
fund by the Agency and paid to the Contractor in accordance with ORS 279C.570. Upon written
request from the Contractor, other forms of acceptable retainage are specified below in Subsections (1)
through (3). "Cash, Alternate A" is the Agency-preferred form of retainage. If the Agency incurs
additional costs as a result of the Contractor's election to use a form of retainage other than Cash,
Alternate A, the Agency may recover such costs from the Contractor by a reduction of the final
payment.
1. Cash, Alternate A- Retainage will be deducted from progress payments and held by the Agency
until final payment is made according to 00195.90,unless otherwise specified in the Contract.
The Agency will deposit the cash retainage withheld in an interest-bearing account in a bank, trust
company, or savings association for the benefit of the Agency, as provided by ORS 279C.560(5).
Interest earned on the account shall accrue to the Contractor. Amounts retained and interest earned
will be included in the final payment made according to 00195.90.
Any retainage withheld on Work performed by a Subcontractor will be released to the Contractor
according to 00195.50D.
104
00195
2. Cash,Alternate B (Retainage Surety Bond) - Upon receipt of an approved retainage surety bond,
the Agency will limit the amount of cash retainage withheld to $10,000. The surety bond must be in
the bond form provided by the Agency. The bond must be provided by the same Surety that provides
the Performance and Payment Bonds.
If the Contractor elects this form of retainage,the Agency will withhold from progress payments up
to 5% of the value of the Work accomplished as cash retainage until the retained amount equals
$10,000. After that amount is retained,no further cash retainage will be withheld until the additional
required retainage that would have been withheld exceeds the face amount of the retainage surety
bond provided. Thereafter, retainage will be withheld from progress payments according to these
Specifications. According to 00195.50B, if at any time the Agency determines that satisfactory
progress is not being made on the Work, the Agency may withhold up to 5% of the value of the
Work accomplished from subsequent progress payments.
If an acceptable retainage surety bond is provided, the Contractor shall notify all Subcontractors of
the existence of the retainage surety bond and shall advise them of their rights under
ORS 279C.560(7) and ORS 701.435.
Amounts of retainage withheld under the provision will be included in the final payment according
to 00195.90.
Any retainage withheld on Work performed by a Subcontractor shall be released to the Contractor
according to 00195.50D.
3. Bonds, Securities, and Other Instruments - In accordance with ORS 279C.560, unless the
Agency finds in writing that accepting a bond, security or other instrument poses an extraordinary
risk that is not typically associated with the bond, security or other instrument, the Agency will
approve the Contractor's written request to deposit bonds, securities or other instruments with the
Agency or in a custodial account or other account satisfactory to the Agency with an approved bank
or trust company, to be held instead of cash retainage for the benefit of the Agency. In such event,
the Agency will reduce the cash retainage by an amount equal to the value of the bonds, securities
and other instruments. Interest or earnings on the bonds, securities and other instruments shall
accrue to the Contractor.
Bonds, securities and other instruments deposited instead of cash retainage shall be assigned to or
made payable to the Agency and shall be of a kind approved by the Director of the Oregon
Department of Administrative Services,including but not limited to:
• Bills, certificates,notes or bonds of the United States;
• Other obligations of the United States or agencies of the United States;
• Obligations of a corporation wholly owned by the federal government;
• Indebtedness of the Federal National Mortgage Association;
• General obligation bonds of the State of Oregon or a political subdivision of the State of Oregon;
• Irrevocable letters of credit issued by an insured institution, as defined in ORS 706.008.
The Contractor shall execute and provide such documentation and instructions respecting the bonds,
securities and other instruments as the Agency may require to protect its interests. When the
Engineer determines that all requirements for the protection of the Agency's interest have been
fulfilled, the bonds and securities deposited instead of cash retainage will be released to the
Contractor.

00195
D. Reduction of Retainage -As the Work progresses, the amounts to be retained under (b) of this
Subsection are subject to reduction in the Engineer's sole discretion. Retainage reductions will be
considered only as follows:
• When the Work is 97.5% or more completed, the Engineer may, without application by the
Contractor,reduce the retained amount to 100% of the value of the Work remaining.
• For a project funded by the FHWA,when a subcontractor has satisfactorily completed all of its Work,
it may request release of retainage for that Work from the Contractor. The Contractor shall request
reduction of retainage in the amount withheld for the subcontractor's Work after certifying to the
Agency that the subcontractor's Work is complete, and that all contractual requirements pertaining
to the subcontractor's Work have been satisfied. Within 60 Calendar Days of the end of the month
in which the Agency receives the Contractor's certification regarding the subcontractor's Work, the
Agency will either notify the Contractor of any deficiencies which require completion before release
of retainage, or verify that the subcontractor's Work complies with the Contract and release all
retainage for that Work with the next scheduled progress payment. Within 10 Calendar Days of
receipt of retainage, the Contractor shall pay to the subcontractor all such retainage released except
for latent defects or warranty.
• The Agency will only release retainage for satisfactorily completed portions of the Work represented
by Pay Items in the Schedule of Items, or by Pay Items added by Change Order. Work not
represented by a Pay Item, but which constitutes part of an uncompleted Pay Item, will not be
regarded as satisfactorily completed Work for the purposes of this Subsection.
If retainage has been reduced or eliminated, the Agency reserves the right to protect its interests by
retaining amounts from further progress payments at the rates provided in 00195.50B.
E. Withholding Payments -In addition to any other rights the Agency may have to withhold payments
under other provisions of the Contract, the Engineer may withhold such amounts from progress
payments or final payment as may reasonably protect the Agency's interests until the Contractor has:
• Completed all Final Trimming and Cleanup according to 00140.90 and Punch List work according
to 00150.90A. An amount of up to twice the Engineer's estimated value of Final Trimming and
Punch List work may be withheld.
• Complied with all orders issued by the Engineer according to the Specifications; and
• Satisfied all legal actions filed against the Agency,the Agency's governing body and its members,and
Agency employees that the Contractor is obliged to defend. (see 00170.72)
Notwithstanding ORS 279C.555 or ORS 279C.570 or 00195.50D, if a Contractor is required to file
statements on the prevailing rate of wages,but fails to do so,the Agency will retain 25%of any amount
earned as required in 00170.65.
F. Prompt Payment Policy-Payments shall be made promptly according to ORS 279C.570.
00195.60 Advance Allowance for Materials on Hand:
(b) General- If the total value of Materials on Hand is at least$1,000 or the total value of a single class of
Materials on Hand is at least$500, the Engineer may authorize an advance allowance for the Materials
in the progress payments. The Agency will not make advance allowances on the Materials unless the
following three conditions are satisfied:
1. Request for Advance Allowance -If Materials on Hand meet the requirement of(2) below, an
advance allowance will be made if.
106
00195
• A written request for advance allowance for Materials on Hand has been received by the Engineer
at least 5 Calendar Days before the pay period cutoff date; and
• The request is accompanied by written consent of the Contractor's Surety,if required by the Agency.
2. Stored or Stockpiled Conditions -The Materials shall have been delivered and/or acceptably
stored or stockpiled according to the Specifications and as follows:
• At the Project Site;
• On Agency-owned property;
• On property in the State of Oregon on which the property owner has authorized storage in writing.
The written authorization must allow the Agency to enter upon the property and remove Materials
for at least 6 months after completion of the Project. The Contractor shall furnish a copy of the
written permission to the Agency; or
• On property outside the State of Oregon on which the property owner has authorized storage in
writing, provided that such storage location is authorized in writing by the Engineer. The permit
must allow the Agency to enter upon the property and remove Materials for at least 6 months after
completion of the Project. The Contractor shall furnish a copy of the written permission to the
Agency.
To be eligible for advance allowance,the Materials shall:
• Meet Specification requirements;
• Have the required Materials conformance and quality compliance documents on file with the
Engineer (see Section 00165);
• Be in a form ready for incorporation into the Work; and
• Be clearly marked and identified as being specifically fabricated, or produced, and reserved for use
on the Project.
3. Responsibility for Protection-The Contractor has full control and responsibility for the protection
of Materials on Hand from the elements and against damage, loss, theft, or other impairment until
the entire Project has been completed and accepted by the Agency.
If Materials are damaged, lost, stolen, or otherwise impaired while stored, the monetary value
advanced for them,if any,will be deducted from the next progress payment.
If these conditions in 00195.60A.1 through 00195.60A.3 have been satisfied, the amount of advance
allowance,less the retainage described in 00195.50,will be determined by one of the following methods as
elected by the Engineer:
• Net cost to the Contractor of the Materials, f.o.b. the Project Site or other approved site; or
• Price (or portion of it attributable to the Materials),less the cost of incorporating the Materials into the
Project, as estimated by the Engineer.
(c) Proof of Payment -The Contractor shall provide the Engineer with proof of payment to the Materials
suppliers for purchased Materials prior to the date of the progress payment that includes the advance
allowance.
If proof of payment is not provided, sums advanced will be deducted from future progress payments,
and the Engineer will not approve further prepayment advance allowance requests.
107
00195
(d) Terminated Contract- If the Contract is terminated, the Contractor shall provide the Agency
immediate possession of all Materials for which advance allowances have been received, as provided
above. If, for any reason, immediate possession of the Materials cannot be provided, the Contractor
shall immediately refund to the Agency the total amount advanced for the Materials. The Agency may
deduct any amount not so refunded from final payment.
00195.70 Payment under Terminated Contract- Payment for Work performed under a Contract that is
terminated according to the provisions of 00180.90 will be determined under (a) or (b) of this Subsection.
A. Termination for Default -Upon termination of the Contract for the Contractor's default,the Agency
will make no further payment until the Project has been completed. The Agency will make progress
payments to the party to whom the Contract is assigned, but may withhold an amount sufficient to
cover anticipated Agency costs, as determined by the Engineer,to complete the Project.
Upon completion of the Project, the Engineer will determine the total amount that the defaulting
Contractor would have been entitled to receive for the Work,under the terms of the Contract,had the
Contractor completed the Work (the "cost of the Work").
If the cost of the Work, less the sum of all amounts previously paid to the Contractor, exceeds the
expense incurred by the Agency in completing the Work, including without limitation expense for
additional managerial and administrative services, the Agency will pay the excess to the Contractor,
subject to the consent of the Contractor's Surety.
If the expense incurred by the Agency in completing the Work exceeds the Contract Amount, the
Contractor or the Contractor's Surety shall pay to the Agency the amount of the excess expense.
The Engineer will determine the expense incurred by the Agency and the total amount of Agency
damage resulting from the Contractor's default. That determination will be final as provided
in 00150.00.
If a termination for default is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unjustified,it shall
be deemed a termination for public convenience, and payment to the Contractor will be made as
provided in Subsection B below.
B. Termination for Public Convenience:
1. General- Full or partial termination of the Contract shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility
for completed or performed Work, or relieve the Contractor's Surety of the obligation for any just
claims arising from the completed or performed Work.
2. Mobilization - If mobilization is not a separate Pay Item,and payment is not otherwise provided for
under the Contract,the Agency may pay the Contractor for mobilization expenses,including moving
Equipment to and from the Project Site. If allowed,payment of mobilization expenses will be based
on cost documentation submitted by the Contractor to the Engineer.
3. All Other Work-The Agency shall pay the Contractor at the unit price for the number of Pay Item
units of completed, accepted Work. For units of Pay Items partially completed, payment will be as
mutually agreed, or,if not agreed, as the Engineer determines to be fair and equitable. No claim for
loss of anticipated profits will be allowed. The Agency will purchase Materials left on hand according
to 00195.80.
108
00195
00195.80 Allowance for Materials Left on Hand:
A. Purchase of Unused Materials - If Materials are delivered to the Project Site, or otherwise acceptably
stored at the order of the Engineer, but not incorporated into the Work due to complete or partial
elimination of Pay Items, changes in Plans, or termination of the Contract for public convenience
according to 00180.90, and it is not commercially feasible for the Contractor to return them for credit
or otherwise dispose of them on the open market; the Agency may purchase them according to the
formula and conditions specified in Subsection B below.
B. Purchase Formula and Conditions:
1. Formula -The Agency will apply the following formula in determining the Contractor's allowance
for Materials left on hand:
Contractor's Actual Cost,plus 5%Overhead Allowance,minus Advance Allowances under 00195.60,
but no markup or profit.
2. Conditions -The Agency will not purchase the Contractor's Materials left on hand unless the
Contractor satisfies the following conditions:
• Requests the Agency's purchase of unused Materials;
• Shows acquisition of the Materials according to 00160.10;
• Shows that the Materials meet Specifications;
• Provides receipts, bills and other records of actual cost of Materials delivered to the designated
delivery points; and
• Demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Engineer that the materials cannot be returned for credit or
otherwise disposed of on the open market.
00195.90 Final Payment:
A. Final Estimate -As soon as practicable after Final Inspection of the Project,as provided in 00150.90,
the Engineer will prepare a final estimate of the quantities of the Pay Items completed. With this
estimate of quantities as a base, the total amount due the Contractor will be determined according to
the terms of the Contract including without limitation any amounts due for Extra Work performed.
B. Final Payment-The amount of final payment will be the difference between the total amount due the
Contractor and the sum of all payments previously made. All prior partial estimates and payments shall
be subject to correction in the final estimate and payment.
After computation of the final amount due, and after Engineer's issuance of the Third Notification,
final payment will be mailed to the Contractor's last known address as shown in the records of the
Agency.
Beginning 30 Calendar Days after the date of Third Notification, interest will begin to accrue at the
rate established by ORS 279C.570 on any money due and payable to the Contractor as final payment,
determined as described above. No interest will be paid on money withheld due to outstanding
amounts owed by the Contractor under the provisions of 00170.10.
C. No Waiver of Right to Make Adjustment-The fact that the Agency has made any measurement,
estimate, determination or certification either before or after completion of the Project, Final
Acceptance, Agency assumption of possession of the Project Site, determination of satisfactory
109
00195
completion of Pay Items or Work or release of retainage under 00195.50(d) or payment for any part of
the Work, shall not prevent either party from:
• Showing the true amount and character of the Work;
• Showing that any measurement, estimate, determination or certification is incorrect;
• Recovering from the other party damages that may have been suffered because the other party failed
to comply with the Contract.
D. Evidence of Contractor Payments -As a condition of final payment, the Agency may require the
Contractor to submit evidence, satisfactory to the Engineer, that all payrolls, material bills, and other
indebtedness connected with the project have been paid, except that in case of any disputed
indebtedness or liens, the Contractor may submit in lieu of evidence of payment, a surety bond
satisfactory to the Agency guaranteeing payment of all such disputed amounts when adjudicated in cases
where such payment has not already been guaranteed by surety bond.
00195.95 Error in Final Quantities and Amounts:
A. Request for Correction of Compensation-If the Contractor believes the quantities and amounts
detailed in the final Contract payment voucher,prepared by the Engineer according to 00195.90, to be
incorrect, the Contractor shall submit an itemized statement to the Engineer detailing all proposed
corrections.
This statement must be submitted to the Engineer within 90 Calendar Days from the date the voucher
was mailed to the Contractor, according to 00195.90B. Any request for compensation not submitted
and supported by an itemized statement within the 90 Calendar Day period will not be paid by the
Agency. This does not limit the application of Section 00199.
B. Acceptance or Rejection of Request:
1. Consideration of Request -The Engineer will consider and investigate the Contractor's request for
correction of compensation submitted according to 00195.95A, and will promptly advise the
Contractor of acceptance or rejection of the request in full or in part.
2. Acceptance of Request- If the Engineer accepts the Contractor's request(s) in full or in part, the
Engineer will prepare a post-final Contract payment voucher,including all accepted corrections,and
will forward it to the Contractor.
3. Rejection of Request-If the Engineer rejects the request(s) in full,the Engineer will issue a written
notice of rejection and mail it to the Contractor.
4. Contractor Objection to Revised Voucher or Notice of Rejection -If the Contractor disagrees
with the revised voucher or notice of rejection, the Contractor may seek review and resolution
according to the procedure specified in 00199.40. If the Contractor fails to submit a request
for 00199.40 review within 30 Calendar Days after the Engineer mails a post-final Contract payment
voucher or notice of rejection,the Contractor waives all rights to a claim based on errors in quantities
and amounts.
If the Engineer rejects the Contractor's request on the basis that the issue was not one that qualified for
treatment under this Section,no review according to 00199.40 will be allowed.
110
00196
Section 00196 - Payment for Extra Work
00196.00 General- Only work not included in the Contract as awarded but deemed by the Engineer to be
necessary to complete the Project (see 00140.60) will be paid as Extra Work. Regardless of alterations and
changes, any item of Work provided for in the Contract will not constitute Extra Work. Payment for
alterations and changes to Work will be made according to 00195.20.
Compensation for Extra Work will be paid only for Work authorized in writing by the Engineer and
performed as specified. Work performed before issuance of the Engineer's written authorization shall be at
the Contractor's risk. Extra Work will be paid as determined by the Engineer, according to 00196.10 and
00196.20.
00196.10 Negotiated Price - If the Engineer can reasonably determine a price estimate for Extra Work, the
Engineer may then give written authorization to the Contractor to begin the Extra Work. As soon as
practicable, but within 10 Calendar Days after that authorization, the Contractor shall respond in writing to
the Engineer's Extra Work price estimate by submitting to the Engineer an Extra Work price quote. The
price quote shall detail the following items related to the Extra Work:
• Types and amounts of Materials
• Hours of Equipment use and hours of labor
• Travel
• Overhead and profit
• Other costs associated with the proposed Extra Work
Pending approval of the price quote,the Engineer will maintain force account records of the Extra Work. As
soon as practicable,but within 10 Calendar Days of receipt of a properly supported price quote,the Engineer
will review the price quote and advise the Contractor if it is accepted or rejected. The Engineer will not accept
a price quote that cannot be justified on a Force Account basis. If the Contractor's price is accepted, the
Engineer will issue a Change Order,and the Extra Work will be paid at the accepted price.
00196.20 Force Account -If the Engineer and the Contractor cannot agree on a price for the Extra Work,
the Engineer may issue a Force Account Work order requiring the Extra Work to be paid as Force Account
Work. Force Account Work records and payment will be made according to Section 00197.
111
00197
Section 00197 - Payment for Force Account Work
00197.00 Scope -The Materials,Equipment and Labor rates and procedures established in this Section apply
only to Extra Work ordered by the Engineer to be performed as Force Account Work.
00197.01 Extra Work on a Force Account Basis -Before ordering Force Account Work,the Engineer will
discuss the proposed work with the Contractor, and will seek the Contractor's comments and advice
concerning the formulation of Force Account Work specifications. The Engineer is not bound by the
Contractor's comments and advice,and has final authority to:
• Determine and direct the Materials, Equipment and Labor to be used on the approved Force Account
Work; and
• Determine the time of the Contractor's performance of the ordered Force Account Work.
Force account work performed by subcontractors will be measured and paid for on the same basis and in the
same manner as force account work performed directly by the Contractor.
If the Engineer orders the performance of Extra Work as Force Account Work, the Engineer will record, on
a daily basis, the Materials, Equipment, and Labor used for the Force Account Work during that day. The
Engineer and the Contractor shall sign the record daily to indicate agreement on the Materials, Equipment,
and Labor used for the Force Account Work performed on that day.
The following shall be reflected on the daily record:
• Materials used in the Force Account Work as directed by the Engineer, except those furnished and paid
under rental rates for use of Equipment;
• Equipment which the Engineer considers necessary to perform the Force Account Work. Equipment
hours will be recorded to the nearest quarter hour;
• Labor costs, including that of Equipment operators and supervisors in direct charge of the specific
operations while engaged in the Force Account Work; and
• The Engineer's and Contractor's signatures confirming its accuracy.
00197.10 Materials:
A. General-The Contractor will be paid for Materials actually used in the Force Account Work as directed
by the Engineer, except for those furnished and paid for under rental rates included with the use of
Equipment. Payments will be at actual cost, including transportation costs to the specified location,
from the supplier to the purchaser,whether the purchaser is the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or other
forces. All costs are subject to the provisions of this Subsection.
B. Trade Discount-If a commercial trade discount is offered or available to the purchaser, it shall be
credited to the Agency, even though the discount may not have actually been taken. The Agency will
not take any discounts for prompt or early payment,whether or not offered or taken.
C. Not Directly Purchased From Supplier-If Materials cannot be obtained by direct purchase from
and direct billing by the supplier,the cost shall be considered to be the price billed to the purchaser less
commercial trade discounts, as determined by the Engineer, but not more than the purchaser paid for
the Materials. No markup other than actual handling costs will be permitted.
D. Purchaser-Owned Source - If Materials are obtained from a supply or source wholly or partly owned
by the purchaser,the cost shall not exceed the price paid by the purchaser for similar Materials furnished
112
00197
from that source on Pay Items, or the current wholesale price for the Materials delivered to the Project
Site,whichever is lower.
00197.20 Equipment:
A. General- Equipment approved by the Engineer to perform the Force Account Work will be eligible
for payment at the established rates only during the hours it is operated or on standby if so ordered by
the Engineer. Equipment hours will be recorded on the daily record to the nearest quarter hour.
Except as modified by these provisions, Equipment use approved by the Engineer will be paid at the
rental rates given in the most current edition of the Rental Rate Blue Books for Construction
Equipment ("Blue Book"), Volumes 1, 2, and 3, published by Penton Media, Inc., and available from
EquipmentWatch (phone 1-800-669-3282).
B. Equipment Description - On the billing form for Equipment costs, the Contractor shall submit to
the Engineer sufficient information for each piece of Equipment and its attachments to enable the
Engineer to determine the proper rental rate from the Blue Book.
C. Rental Rates (without Operator):
1. Rental Rate Formula -Rental rates for Equipment will be paid on an hourly basis for Equipment
and for attachments according to the following formula:
Monthly Base Rate x Rate Adjustment Factor
Hourly 176 hours/month Rate = + Hourly Operating Rate
Some attachments are considered "standard Equipment" and are already included in the monthly
base rate for the Equipment. That information can be obtained from EquipmentWatch.
2. Monthly Base Rate -The monthly base rate used above for the machinery and for attachments
represents the major costs of Equipment ownership, such as depreciation,interest, taxes,insurance,
storage, and major repairs.
3. Rate Adjustment Factor-The rate adjustment factor used above will be determined by applying
only the Model Year Adjustment to the Blue Book Rates. The Regional and User Defined
Ownership/Operating Adjustments shall not apply.
4. Hourly Operating Rate -The hourly operating rate used above for the machinery and for
attachments represents the major costs of Equipment operations, such as fuel and oil, lubrications,
field repairs, tires or ground engaging components, and expendable parts.
5. Limitations-If multiple attachments are included with the rental Equipment,and are not considered
"standard Equipment", only the attachment having the higher rental rate will be eligible for payment,
provided the attachment has been approved by the Engineer as necessary to the Force Account Work.
Rental will not be allowed for small tools that have a daily rental rate of less than $5, or for unlisted
Equipment that has a fair market value of$400 or less.
The above rates apply to approved Equipment in good working condition. Equipment not in good
working condition, or larger than required to efficiently perform the work, may be rejected by the
Engineer or accepted and paid for at reduced rates.
113
00197
D. Moving Equipment - If it is necessary to transport Equipment located beyond the Project Site
exclusively for Force Account Work, the actual cost to transport the Equipment to, and return it from,
its On-Site Work location will be allowed as an additional item of expense. However, the return cost
will not exceed the original delivery cost. These costs will not be allowed for Equipment that is brought
to the Project Site for Force Account Work if the Equipment is also used on Pay Item or related Work.
If transportation of such Equipment is by common carrier, payment will be made in the amount paid
for the freight. No markups will be allowed on common carrier transportation costs. If the Equipment
is hauled with the Contractor's own forces, transportation costs will include the rental rate of the
hauling unit and the hauling unit operator's wage. If Equipment is transferred under its own power,
the rental rate allowed for transportation time will be 75% of the appropriate hourly rate for the
Equipment,without attachments,plus the Equipment operator's wage.
E. Standby Time - If ordered by the Engineer, standby time will be paid at 40% of the hourly rental rate
calculated according to this Subsection,excluding the hourly operating rate. Rates for standby time that
are calculated at less than$1 per hour will not be paid. Payment will be limited to not more than 8 hours
in a 24-hour period or 40 hours in a 1 week period. Standby Time provisions shall also apply to Section
00195 —Payment.
F. Blue Book Omissions - If a rental rate has not been established in the Blue Book,the Contractor may:
• If approved by the Engineer, use the rate of the most similar model found in the Blue Book,
considering such characteristics as manufacturer, capacity, horsepower, age and fuel type;
• Request EquipmentWatch to furnish a written response for a rental rate on the Equipment,which
shall be presented to the Engineer for approval; or
• Request that the Engineer establish a rental rate.
G. Outside Rental Equipment -If Contractor-owned or Subcontractor-owned Equipment is not
available, and Equipment is rented from outside sources, payment will be based on the actual paid
invoice. Approval of the Engineer to rent from outside sources must be obtained prior to renting the
equipment.
If the invoice specifies that rental rate does not include fuel,lubricants, field repairs, and servicing, an
amount equal to the Blue Book hourly operating cost may be added for those items that were excluded.
The Agency may reduce the payment when the invoice amount plus allowance is higher than the
amount authorized under C through F of this Subsection.
00197.30 Labor-The Contractor will be paid for all labor engaged directly on Force Account Work,
including Equipment operators and supervisors in direct charge of the specific force account operations, as
follows:
A. Wages -The actual wages paid to laborers and supervisors, if those wages are paid at rates not more
than those for comparable labor currently employed on the Project, or at the recognized, current,
prevailing rates in the locality of the Project.
B. Required Contributions -The actual cost of industrial accident insurance, unemployment
compensation contributions, payroll transit district taxes, and social security for old age assistance
contributions incurred or required under statutory law and these Specifications. The actual cost of
industrial accident insurance is the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) rate for the
assigned risk pool for the appropriate work class multiplied by the experience modification factor for
the Contractor.
114
00197
C. Required Benefits -The actual amount paid to, or on behalf of, workers as per diem and travel
allowances, health and welfare benefits, pension fund benefits, or other benefits when such other
benefits are required by a collective bargaining agreement or other employment contract generally
applicable to the classes of labor employed on the Project.
D. Overtime -No overtime will be compensated unless authorized in advance of performing the Work
by the Engineer.
00197.80 Percentage Allowances -To the Contractor's actual costs incurred, as limited in this Section
00197, amounts equal to a percentage markup of such costs will be allowed and paid to the Contractor as
follows:
Subsection Percent
00197.10 Materials 17
00197.20 Equipment 17
00197.30 Labor 22
When a Subcontractor performs ordered Force Account Work,the Contractor will be allowed a supplemental
markup of 8% on each Force Account Work order.
These allowances made to the Contractor will constitute complete compensation for bonds, insurance,
overhead, general and administrative expense, profit, and all other Force Account Work costs that were
incurred by the Contractor, or by other forces that the Contractor furnished. No other reimbursement,
compensation, or payment will be made.
00197.90 Billings -Billings for Force Account Work by the Contractor shall be submitted for the Engineer's
approval on forms provided by the Agency or approved by the Engineer. Billings for Materials (other than
Incidental items out of the inventory of the Contractor or Subcontractors), rental Equipment from sources
other than the Contractor or Subcontractors,and Special Services,shall be accompanied by copies of invoices
for the goods and services. The invoices shall be fully itemized showing dates, quantities, unit prices, and
complete descriptions of goods and services provided. Invoices for amounts of$10 or less per invoice are
not required,unless requested by the Engineer.
Costs included on the billings shall comply with 00197.01 and 00197.10 through 00197.30. When a billing
for Force Account Work has been paid at the Project level, no further corrections will be made because of
further review if those corrections amount to less than $10.
115
00199
Section 00199 - Disagreements, Protests, and Claims
00199.00 General-This Section details the process through which the parties agree to resolve any
disagreement concerning additional compensation or concerning a combination of additional compensation
and Contract Time. (See 00180.80 for disagreements and claims concerning additional Contract Time only,
and 00195.95 for disagreements and claims concerning correction of final compensation.) The Agency will
not consider direct disagreements,protests, or claims from subcontractors, Suppliers,or any other Entity not
a party to the Contract.
00199.10 Procedure for Resolving Disagreements -When disagreements occur concerning additional
compensation or a combination of additional compensation and Contract Time, the Contractor shall first
pursue resolution through the Engineer of all issues in the dispute, including without limitation the items to
be included in the written notice in 00199.20. If the discussion fails to provide satisfactory resolution of the
disagreement,the Contractor shall follow the protest procedures outlined in 00199.20. If the Engineer denies
all or part of the Contractor's protest, and the Contractor desires to further pursue the issues, the Contractor
shall submit a claim for processing according to 00199.30.
00199.15 Inappropriate Protest or Claim-It shall be presumed that the Contractor submits a protest or
claim for additional compensation in good faith,based upon facts which reasonably support the Contractor's
position and with full knowledge and understanding of the injury done to the Agency when notice of differing
Project Site conditions or claims for additional compensation are not submitted in a timely manner as required
under the Contract. Accordingly, the submission of a protest or claim without the concurrent submission of
evidence that reasonably supports the protest or claim, or the submission of a protest or claim in an untimely
manner will constitute a waiver of the protest or claim.
00199.20 Protest Procedure - f the Contractor disagrees with anything required in a Change Order or other
written or oral order from the Engineer,including any direction,instruction,interpretation,or determination,
or if the Contractor asserts a disagreement or dispute on any other basis, except 0195.95, that, in the
Contractor's opinion,entitles or would entitle the Contractor to additional compensation or a combination of
compensation and Contract Time,the Contractor shall do all of the following in order to pursue a protest and
preserve its claim:
A. Oral Notice - Give oral notice of protest to the Engineer and outline the areas of disagreement
before starting or continuing the protested Work.
B. Written Confirmation of Oral Notice—Not later than the end of the next business day following

A. General-If the Contractor believes that additional compensation is due,or a combination of additional
compensation and Contract Time, and has pursued and exhausted all the procedures provided in

and any subcontractors, Suppliers or any Entity other than the Contractor. It is the Contractor's
responsibility to fully evaluate any claim before presenting it to the Agency. In addition, when a claim
includes Work done or costs incurred by any subcontractors, Suppliers, or any Entity other than the
Contractor, the Contractor remains solely responsible for presenting the claim to the Agency.
Claims that include Work done or costs incurred by subcontractors,Suppliers,or any Entity other than the

Days following the date of the Second Notification, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer in
writing,claims for additional compensation or a combination of additional compensation and Contract
Time additional to that specified in the Contract. For a claim not submitted within the 45 day limit,
that has not met the requirements of 00199.20, or is not filed as provided in 00199.30, the Contractor
waives any claim for additional compensation or for additional compensation and Contract Time, and
the Agency may reject the claim.
Written claims to the Engineer or the Agency by the Contractor shall be delivered to the Agency
address shown in the Public Improvement Contract, unless a different address is agreed to by the
Engineer, and shall be delivered:
• By U.S. Postal Service first class mail or priority mail (which at the sender's option may include

If the Engineer determines that additional information,records or documentation is needed to allow proper
evaluation of the claim submittal, the Engineer will request the information, records or documentation.
120
00199
The Contractor shall submit to the Engineer within 14 Calendar Days,or as otherwise agreed by the parties,
the required additional information,records and documentation.
If the Engineer determines that the claim submittal with the additional information, records and
documentation submitted is incomplete and not accepted as a claim,the Engineer will notify the Contractor
in writing and the submittal will be rejected and will not be considered under 00199.40.
C. Records Requirements -The Contractor shall comply with 00170.07.
D. Compliance Required - Full compliance by the Contractor with the provisions of this Section is a
condition precedent to the commencement of any lawsuit by the Contractor to enforce any claim.
00199.40 Claim Decision; Review; Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies -The Agency intends to
resolve all claims at the lowest possible administrative level.The Engineer will also determine whether multiple
claims should be advanced separately or together.
If the Engineer denies the claim for additional compensation or a combination of additional compensation
and Contract Time,in full or in part,according to 00199.40A,the Contractor may request review of the denial.
The disputed claim for additional compensation or a combination of additional compensation and Contract
Time may then be resolved, in full or in part, at any of the progressive steps of claim review procedure as
specified in (b) through (c) of this Subsection.
If the Engineer has denied a claim, in full or in part, for Contract Time only according to 00180.80, or has
denied a claim,in full or in part, for correction of final compensation according to 00195.95, those disputed
claims may then be resolved,in full or in part,at either of the two progressive steps of claim review procedure
as specified in (b) through (c) of this Subsection.
A person authorized by the Contractor to execute Change Orders on behalf of the Contractor must be present
and attend all claim hearings. For all claims,all of the actions and review under each step of the review process
shall occur before the review can be advanced to the next higher step.
If, at any step in the claim decision or review process, the Contractor fails to promptly submit requested
information or documentation that the Agency deems necessary to analyze the claim, the Contractor is
deemed to have waived its right to further review, and the claim will not be considered properly filed and
preserved.
A. Decision by the Engineer-The Engineer will, as soon as practicable, consider, investigate, and
evaluate a Contractor's claim for additional compensation,or for a combination of additional compensation
and Contract Time,if submitted as required by 00199.30.
Once the Engineer determines the Agency is in receipt of a properly submitted claim, the Engineer will
arrange a meeting, within 21 Calendar Days or as otherwise agreed by the parties, with the Contractor in
order to present the claim for formal review and discussion.
If the Engineer determines that the Contractor must furnish additional information, records or
documentation to allow proper evaluation of the claim, the Engineer will schedule a second meeting,to be
held within 14 Calendar Days or as otherwise agreed by the parties, at which the Contractor shall present
the requested information,records and documentation.
The Engineer will provide a written decision to the Contractor within 30 Calendar Days of the last
Engineer-level meeting.
If the Contractor does not accept the Engineer's decision, the Contractor may,within 10 Calendar Days of
receipt of the written decision,request in writing that the Engineer arrange a review at Step 1 (see(b)below).
121
00199
B. Step 1: Public Works Director Level Review-The Contractor shall request that the Engineer
arrange a meeting with the Public Works Director or the Public Works Director's designee, as determined
by the Public Works Director,in order to present the denied or partially denied claim for formal review and
discussion. The meeting will take place within 21 Calendar Days of the Agency's receipt of the request, or
as otherwise agreed by the parties.
If the Public Works Director (or designee) determines that the Contractor must furnish additional
information,records or documentation to allow proper evaluation of the claim,the Public Works Director
(or designee) will schedule a second meeting, to be held within 14 Calendar Days, or as otherwise agreed
by the parties,at which the Contractor shall present the requested information,records and documentation.
The Public Works Director (or designee) will provide a written decision to the Contractor within
30 Calendar Days of the last meeting with the Public Works Director (or designee).
The claim is subject to 00199.60, if not all of the records requested by the Public Works Director (or
designee) were furnished. If applicable, advancement of the claim is subject to the provisions of 00199.60
regarding waiver and dismissal of the claim or portions of the claim.
If the Contractor does not accept the decision, the Contractor may, within 180 Calendar Days from the
date of receipt of the Public Works Director (or designee) written decision or within 90 Calendar Days of
the date of Second Notification,whichever is later,initiate Step 2 as set forth in subsection C below.
C. Step 2: Arbitration and Litigation -The Contractor must follow each step in order,and exhaust all
available administrative remedies before resort to arbitration and litigation. Litigation of a claim that cannot
be resolved in Step 1 shall be initiated by filing a complaint in the Circuit Court for the State of Oregon in
the county where the Agency's main office is located that contains a stipulation to arbitration under ORS
36.410. The claim and all cross and counter-claims filed in response to the complaint shall be submitted to
the Court Arbitration Program set forth in ORS 36.400 to 36.425, Chapter 13 of the Oregon Uniform Trial
Court Rules and the Circuit Court supplemental local rules concerning arbitration. Either party may seek,
and shall be entitled to, an order directing the other party to submit to arbitration as provided herein and to
judgment for its costs, expenses and attorney fees in obtaining and enforcing the order
In no event shall this Subsection be construed as a waiver by the Agency or by the State of Oregon on any
form of defense or immunity, whether sovereign immunity, governmental immunity, immunity based on
the Eleventh Amendment to the Constitution of the United States or otherwise, from any claim or from
the jurisdiction of any court.
D. Payment of Costs, Expenses and Attorney's Fees -The prevailing party shall be entitled to an
award for reasonable costs and expenses incurred after the initiation of Step 2,including costs and
expenses incurred for arbitration, trial de novo and on appeal. Costs and Expenses shall include,but shall
not be limited to, reasonable attorney fees and expenses, arbitrator fees and expenses, and costs of
discovery.
As used in this subsection 00199.40D, "prevailing party" for an arbitration award means (1) a Contractor
who has received an arbitration award,exclusive of interest,costs and expenses,that is more than the dollar
amount claimed by the Contractor in its Final Documentation of Claim under 00199.20(d) or(2) the Agency
if there is no arbitration award to the Contractor or if the arbitration award to the Contractor, exclusive of
interest,costs and expenses,is less than the dollar amount of the award in the Step 1 decision. For all other
arbitration awards, there shall not be a "prevailing party."
122
00199
The award of costs and expenses after trial de novo shall be made as provided for in ORS 36.425. The
award of costs and expenses after appeal from a judgment entered after trial de novo shall be to the
prevailing party designated as such by the appeals court.
The Contractor shall comply with 00170.00.
00199.50 Mediation -Notwithstanding the formal claims procedure specified above, the parties may enter
into nonbinding mediation by mutual agreement at any time, in which case the parties may also agree to
suspend the time requirements in Section 00199 pending the outcome of the mediation process. The rules,
time and place for mediation, as well as selection of the mediator, shall be established by mutual agreement.
Costs shall be divided equally between the Contractor and the Agency. Either party may terminate mediation
at any time upon 5 Calendar Days notice to the other, after which the time requirements of Section 00199
shall be automatically reinstated and shall resume from the point at which the time requirements were
suspended.
00199.60 Review of Determination Regarding Records - If not all of the records requested by the Agency
under 00199.40C Step 2 were provided, then the Agency will determine:
• If the records are of the type described in 00170.07; and
• If the records have not been maintained or the records, or access to the records,has not been provided
to the Agency as required by 00170.07 and this Section; and
• If the records are material and necessary for proper evaluation of part or all of the claim; and
• The portions of the claim for which the records are material and necessary for proper evaluation.
If the Agency makes the foregoing determinations, then subject to the review process described below, all
portions of the claim for which the Agency determined the records are material and necessary for proper
evaluation are immediately waived and irrevocably dismissed.
Even if the records have not been maintained or the records,or access to the records,have not been provided
to the Agency in a given instance, the Agency may determine that sufficient records have been provided for
the Agency to properly evaluate the claim in that instance. If the Agency makes this determination,the claim
or portions of the claim will not be waived or dismissed under this provision.
If the Contractor does not accept the Agency written determination that the records are material and necessary
for proper evaluation of part or all of the claim, and the portions of the claim for which the records are
material and necessary,the Contractor may,within 14 Calendar Days of receipt of the Agency determination,
request, in writing, a review of such determination by the Public Works Director (or designee). If the
Contractor does not request a review of the Agency determination, the Agency determination shall then
become the Agency's final determination as of the expiration of the time limit to request review.
If the Contractor requests the review, the Public Works Director (or designee)will schedule a review meeting
within 14 Calendar Days, or as otherwise agreed by the parties, of when the Public Works Director (or
designee)receives the written review request. The Agency and the Contractor will each have an opportunity
to explain their respective positions at the review meeting in a manner determined by the Public Works
Director (or designee).
Within 10 Calendar Days of the review meeting, the Public Works Director (or designee)will issue a written
proposed finding of whether the records not maintained or not provided to the Agency, or for which access
was not provided to the Agency, are material and necessary for proper evaluation of part or all of the claim.
If the Public Works Director(or designee)makes that finding,then the Public Works Director(or designee)will
also make a proposed written finding as to what portions of the claim the records are material and necessary
and, therefore,waived and irrevocably dismissed.
123
00199
Even if the records have not been maintained or the records,or access to the records,have not been provided
to the Agency in a given instance, the Public Works Director (or designee) may determine that sufficient
records have been provided for the Agency to properly evaluate the claim in that instance. If the Public Works
Director (or designee) makes this determination,then the claim or portions of the claim will not be waived or
dismissed under this provision.
The Public Works Director's (or designee) findings will be submitted to the Contractor. The Public Works
Director's (or designee) findings are the Agency's final determination.
If the Agency's final determination is that the records are material and necessary for proper evaluation of part
or all of the claim,then the claim or that portion of the claim for which the records are material and necessary
is waived and irrevocably dismissed, unless the Contractor provides the records, or access to the records, to
the Agency within 5 Calendar Days of the Agency's final determination. If the Contractor provides the
records,or access to the records,within this time limit,the Agency will schedule a meeting with the Contractor
within 14 Calendar Days or as otherwise agreed by the parties, to discuss the records.
The Agency's final determination that records are material and necessary for proper evaluation of part or all
of the claim, and the Agency's final determination of the portions of the claim for which the records are
material and necessary, shall be final and binding.
If the entire claim is waived and irrevocably dismissed pursuant to the Agency's final determination there will
be no further decision by the Agency on the claim or further review of the claim under 00199.40 and the claim
will not be eligible for mediation under 00199.50. If only portions of the claim are waived and irrevocably
dismissed pursuant to the Agency's final determination, the Agency will provide a written decision to the
Contractor regarding the remaining portions of the claim within 30 Calendar Days of the final Step 2 meeting,
or the Agency's final determination regarding the records,whichever is later. There will be no further decision
by the Agency on or further review under 00199.40 of the portions of the claim waived and irrevocably
dismissed pursuant to Agency's final determination and those portions will not be eligible for mediation
under 00199.50.

this temperature in 10 °F increments from the JMF as follows:
• Up - If the aggregate coating, moisture content, workability or compaction requirements are
not attained.
• Down- If the aggregate coating,moisture content,workability and compaction requirements
are attained.
00744.43 Preparation of Underlying Surfaces - All valve boxes, monument boxes, manholes and
catch basins shall be adjusted to finish grade in advance of or during the paving operation. No
adjustments shall be made after the paving is completed unless approved by the Engineer prior to
paving. Minimum paving ring size for manholes shall be two inches. Adjustments made for manhole
slopes and/or less than two inches of grade increase shall require a frame adjustment.
Any tree branches or foliage which will hinder the proper placement of the surfacing shall be removed
by the Contractor by pruning and sealing the cut ends, or tying back in a manner approved by the
Engineer. The Contractor shall be responsible for trees damaged that are not properly pruned or tied
back.
All surfaces to be paved shall be swept clean by the Contractor no more than 24 hours in advance of
paving. The Contractor shall remove vegetation prior to washing or sweeping. The Contractor shall
use vacuum street sweepers that are self propelled equipment with rotating brooms and brushes that
are capable of loosening dirt and debris from the road surface. In those areas where dirt and debris
cannot be removed with sweeping alone,washing of the surface will be required.
Coordinate construction of driveway transitions with property owners to minimize disruption of
access.
00744.44 Tack Coat - Construct a tack coat before placing each lift of ACP according to Section

PAVEMENT REHABILITATION
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
Treat all existing and newly paved ACP or curb (below finish grade) surfaces on and against which
ACP is to be placed with an asphalt tack coat according to Section 00730. Before applying the tack
coat, clean and dry the surface to be tacked. Do not place tack coat any further than 500 feet in front
of the paver.
Remove all loose material that will reduce adhesion of the tack by brooming, flushing with water, or
other approved methods.
Avoid excess tack coat being applied to the gutter or curb face. Shields protecting curb faces shall be
provided and used during tacking of curb faces. Any tack coat inadvertently or inappropriately applied
to the gutter or curb face shall be promptly removed.
00744.45 Hauling, Depositing, and Placing - Haul, deposit, and place ACP according to the
following:
(a) Hauling—Provide vehicles with tight, clean and smooth metal beds equipped with covers to
protect against moisture and heat loss. Cover ACP if rain is encountered any time between loading
and placement, for all night work,and when the duration between loading and delivery to the paver
results in the temperature of the ACP delivered to the paver to be below the upper limit of the
compaction temperature range.
ACP will be rejected before placing if one or more of the following occurs:
• Placement temperature measured in the truck below limit specified in the approved JMF.
• Below temperature limit specified in 00744.42.
• Slumping or separating.
• Solidifying.
• Absorbing moisture
• Any other item,in the judgment of the Engineer,would be likely to decrease the quality of
the paving.
Dispose of rejected loads at no additional cost to the Agency.
Vehicles which cause excessive segregation,which leak badly,or which the Engineer has determined
delay normal operations, shall be removed from the project.
Deliver the mixture to the paving machine at a rate that provides continuous operation of the paving
machine, except for unavoidable delay or breakdown. If excessive stopping of the paving machine
occurs during paving operations, the Engineer may suspend paving operations until the mixture
delivery rate matches the paving machine operation.
Do not use diesel oil as a release agent unless approved by the Engineer. Do not clean out trucks
in front of the paver. Clean trucks in an approved location away from the paving operation. Clean
up and restore cleanout area daily.
(b) Depositing - Deposit ACP from the hauling vehicles so segregation is prevented.
38
CITY OF TIGARD—2020 PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
PAVEMENT REHABILITATION
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
(c)Placing-Alternative equipment and means may be allowed by the Engineer if the use of a paver
is impractical. If a dump truck cannot physically deliver the mix to a tight area, a very clean bucket
of a loader may be used as an alternate.
Do not place ACP during rain or other adverse weather conditions,unless allowed by the Engineer.
ACP in transit at the time adverse conditions occur may be placed if:
• It has been covered during transit.
• The ACP temperature is satisfactory.
• It is placed on a foundation free from pools or flow of water.
• No other factors are observed by the Engineer that would reduce the quality of paving.
Place the mixture in the number of lifts and courses, and to the compacted thickness for each lift
and course, as shown. Place each course in one lift unless otherwise specified. Do not exceed a
compacted thickness of 4 inches for any lift. Limit the minimum lift thickness to three times the
maximum aggregate size in the mix.
ACP shall not be placed against concrete, curb or gutter, or other structures, until seven days after
the concrete has been placed, adequate strength of the concrete has been achieved, and they have
been backfilled to provide lateral support.
When more than one lift of asphalt is required,no subsequent lifts shall be placed until the prior lift
has adequately cooled and set sufficiently to prevent marking and has achieved minimum
compaction requirements.
Any mixture that becomes loose and broken, mixed with dirt or is in any way defective shall be
subject to removal and to replacement with fresh hot mixture,which shall be compacted to conform
to the surrounding area. Any area showing an excess or deficiency of asphalt cement shall be subject
to removal and to replacement. Removal and replacement under these provisions shall be at the
expense of the Contractor.
If hand work is necessary such as at transitions, curb ramps, beginning, and ending panels, stop
material from becoming segregated by excessive raking. If larger aggregate collects on the surface,
remove this larger aggregate and introduce fresh,appropriately graded mixture to the area and finish
so there is no apparent segregation and the mat is one uniform texture.
Do not broadcast mix by shovel across a new mat. If observed,the affected portion of the mat may
be rejected.
00744.46 Longitudinal Joints -At longitudinal joints,bond, compact and finish the new ACP equal
to the ACP against which it is placed.
Roll joints without raking the joint with self-propelled rollers as follows:
• Pass no. 1 on the hot side with 6-inch overlap on the cold (or previously-placed) mat
• Complete pattern to cover the remainder of the mat
39

PAVEMENT REHABILITATION
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
(a) Location - Place the ACP in panel widths which hold the number of longitudinal joints to a
minimum. Offset the longitudinal joints in one panel by at least 6 inches from the longitudinal joints
in the panel immediately below.
(1) Base Course - Place base course longitudinal joints within 12 inches of the edge of a lane, or
within 12 inches of the center of a lane, except in irregular areas,unless otherwise shown.
(2) Wearing Course - Construct longitudinal joints at either lane lines or fog lines, or as shown
or directed. See striping plans for design lane lines and fog lines, as they may be different from
the existing layout.
(b) Drop-offs:
• Provide warning signs and markings according to Section 00225 where abrupt or sloped edge
drop-offs 1 inch or more in height occur.
• Protect edges from being broken down.
If unable to complete the pavement without drop-offs according to 00744.44(c) do the following:
• Construct and maintain a wedge of ACP at a slope of 1V:10H or flatter along the exposed
longitudinal joint.
• Remove and dispose of the wedge before continuing paving operations.
• Construct,maintain,remove, and dispose of the temporary wedge at no additional cost to the
Agency. ACP for the temporary wedge will be paid for at the pay item price.
(c) Placing Under Traffic - When placing ACP pavement under traffic, schedule work for the
nominal thickness being laid as follows:
(1) More Than 2 Inches - Schedule work so at the end of each working shift the full width of
the area being paved,including shoulders,is completed to the same elevation with no longitudinal
drop-offs,unless approved.
(2) Less Than or Equal to 2 Inches - Schedule work so that at the end of each working shift
one panel of new travel lane pavement does not extend beyond the adjoining panel of new travel
lane pavement more than the distance normally covered by each shift. At the end of each week
complete the full width of the area to be paved, including shoulders, to the same elevation with
no longitudinal drop-offs.
00744.47 Transverse Joints:
(a) Travel Lanes - Construct transverse joints on the travel lane portion of all specified pavement
courses, except leveling courses, as follows:
(1) Temporary End Panel - Maintain pavement depth, line and grade at least 4 feet beyond the
selected transverse joint location, and from that point,wedge down on the appropriate slope until
the top of the course being laid meets the underlying surface (assuming a pavement course
thickness of 2 inches) as follows:
40
CITY OF TIGARD—2020 PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
PAVEMENT REHABILITATION
SPECIAL PROVISIONS
• For wedges that will be under traffic for less than 24 hours, construct an 8 foot long wedge
(1 V:50H taper rate).
• For wedges that will be under traffic for 24 hours or longer, construct a 25 foot long wedge
(1V:160H taper rate).
• Construct,maintain,remove, and dispose of the temporary wedge at no additional cost to the
Agency. ACP for the temporary wedge will be paid for at the pay item price.
When the pavement course thickness is different than the above 2 inch example, use the
appropriate taper rate to compute the length of the wedge. The wedge length plus the 4 feet or
longer panel form the temporary end panel.
(2)Vertical Face -After the mixture has reached the required density:
• Provide a smooth,vertical face the full depth of the course being laid at the location selected
for the joint by sawing, cutting or other approved method.
• Remove the ACP material from the joint to the end of the panel. If removed before resuming
paving beyond the joint,reconstruct the temporary end panel immediately by placing a bond-
breaker of paper,dust,or other suitable material against the vertical face and on the surface to
be occupied by the temporary end panel. Construct a full-depth panel at least 4 feet long,
beginning at the sawed or cut joint, and taper it on a 1V:50H slope to zero thickness.
(4) Resume Paving - When permanent paving resumes, remove the temporary end panel and
any bond-breakers. Clean the surface of all debris and apply a tack coat to the vertical edge and
the surface to be paved.
(5)Joint Requirements - Compact both sides of the joint to the specified density. When tested
with a straightedge placed across the joint,the joint surface shall conform to 00744.70.
(b)Abutting Bridge Ends-Compact the ACP abutting bridge ends and other rigid type structures
in the longitudinal direction and either transverse or diagonal direction, as directed.
(c) Bridge Deck Overlays - Saw cut the wearing course of pavement directly over the joints in
bridge decks, bridge end joints and end panel end joints as soon as practical but within 48 hours of
paving each stage of the wearing course,unless otherwise directed. Saw cut a 3/8 inch wide, ±1/8
inch, by 1/2 inch less than the thickness of the panel of pavement depth or 1 1/2 inches deep,
whichever is less.
Flush the saw cut thoroughly with a high-pressure water stream after the cut has been made. Before
the cut dries out, blow it free of water and debris with compressed air. Fill the joint with a poured
filler from the QPL.
00744.48 Asphalt Driveway Connections - Pave all driveway connections during mainline paving
operations.
00744.50 Compaction - After the ACP has been spread, struck off, and surface irregularities and
other defects remedied, roll it uniformly until compacted to a minimum of 93 percent of the daily

SPECIAL PROVISIONS
MDT. Perform finish rolling and continue until all roller marks are eliminated. Rollers shall not make
sharp turns on the course being compacted and they shall not be parked on the hot asphalt mixture.
Complete breakdown and intermediate compaction before the HMAC temperature drops below
180°F, unless otherwise directed or required based on the control strip. When the rolling causes
tearing, displacement, cracking or shoving,make necessary changes in compaction temperature, type
of compaction equipment, and rolling procedures.
Determine compliance with density specifications by random testing of the compacted surface with
calibrated nuclear gauges. Determine the density by averaging QC tests performed by a CDT with
the nuclear gauge operated in the backscatter mode according to WAQTC T 8 at one random location
for each 100 tons of asphalt concrete placed, but take no less than 10 tests each shift. Do not locate
the center of a density test less than 1 foot from the panel edge. Calculate the Maximum Density
according to ODOT TM 305. The Agency may elect to complete additional compaction testing at its
discretion. The Engineer may waive compaction testing upon written notice.
Compaction to a specified density will not be required for the following:
• Thin Pavements - Leveling, patches, or where the nominal compacted thickness of a course
of ACP will be less than 2 inches.
• Other Areas - Temporary surfacing, guardrail flares, mailbox turnouts, road approaches, and
areas of restricted width of less than 8 feet wide or limited length,regardless of thickness.
Compact thin pavements and other areas according to 00749.45.
Any displacement of any course, regardless of thickness, occurring as a result of the reversing of the
direction of a roller, or from other causes, shall be corrected at once by the use of rakes and addition
of fresh mixture when required.
The Contractor shall notify the Engineer/Inspector immediately when the average density does not
meet 93% or exceeds 95%. An investigation will be initiated to determine if the results indicate that
a problem with the mix is developing before laying any more material. Take all actions necessary to
resolve compaction problems. Do not resume paving until allowed by the Engineer. Take immediate
corrective measures when the specified compaction density is not being achieved. At the Engineer's
discretion, corrective measures may include removing and replacing areas that fail to comply with
compaction requirements.
00744.51 Joints—Seal all joints per Section 00744.71.
