e e ",,; e GC-22 GC-23 GC-24 unforseeable weather; and c. To any delays of SUBCONTRACTORS occasioned by any of the causes specified in paragraphs a. and b. above. TIME EXTENSIONS. Changed conditions and CHANGE ORDERS, abnormal or unusual weather conditions, labor strikes, and delays caused by various governmental activities may be the basis for extending the period for performance. Because these various reasons for delay can have cumulative effect or actually have no effect, the CONTRACTOR is required to request, in writing, on a monthly basis, time extensions and to discuss these requests with the ENGINEER to determine whether or not a time extension can be recommended. Should a time extension be granted by the OWNER, A CHANGE ORDER, signed by the OWNER, will be issued to indicate the new date for completion. SATURDAY. SUNDAY, HOLIDAY, AND NIGHT WORK. Work shall normally not be done on Saturdays, Sundays, observed holidays, or outside of the daytime working hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. except for such work as may be necessary for proper care, maintenance, and protection of work already done , or in cases where the work would be . endangered or if hazards to life or property would result. If the CONTRACTOR believes it necessary to work on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, or at night, he shall make prior arrangements with the OWNER or ENGINEER and receive written approval at least 48 hours before such work period so that proper inspection and engineering service can be provided. Such approval may be revoked by the ENGINEER if the CONTRACTOR fails to maintain adeqnate equipment and lighting at night for the proper prosecution, control, and inspection of the WORK. If WORK is done without the ENGINEER's prior approval and as a result the ENGINEER had not assigned inspectors to the WORK, the WORK done during these periods of time may be declared defective, solely on the grounds that it was not properly inspected. PROGRESS PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR. At least ten (10) days before each progress payment falls due (but not more often than once a month), the CONTRACTOR will submit to the ENGINEER a partial payment estimate filled out and signed by the CONTRACTOR covering the WORK performed during the period covered by the partial payment estimate and su?ported by such data as the ENGINEER may reasonably require. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the WORK but delivered and sultably stored at or near the site, the partial payment estimate shall also be accompanied by such supporting data, satisfactory to the OWNER, as will establish the OWNER's title to the material and equipment and protect his interest therein, including applicable insurance. The ENGINEER will, within ten (10) days after receipt of each partial payment estimate, either indicate in writing his approval for payment and present the partial payment estimate to the OWNER or return the partial payment estimate to the CONTRACTOR indieating in writing his reasons for refusing to approve payment. In the latter case, the CONTRACTOR may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the partial payment estimate. The OWNER will, within thirty (30) days of presentation to him of an approved partial payment estimate, pay the CONTRACTOR a progress payment on the basis of the approved partial payment estimate. Owner will retain from progress payments, until payment is due under the terms and conditions governing final payments, amounts as follows: a. Retention of 10 percent of progress payments until the work is 50 percent satisfactorily completed. b After the WORK is 50 percent satisfactorily completed, no further retainage shall be witltheld from each subsequent progress payment unless, in the opinion of the ENGINEER and the OWNER, satisfactory progress is not being made.
