submittals, processing Applications for Payment, and
<br />maintaining required records.
<br />2.07 Initial Acceptance of Schedules
<br />A. At least 10 days before submission of the first
<br />Application for Payment a conference attended by
<br />Contractor, Engineer, and others as appropriate will be
<br />held to review for acceptability to Engineer as provided
<br />below the schedules submitted in accordance with
<br />Paragraph 2.05.A. Contractor shall have an additional 10
<br />days to make corrections and adjustments and to complete
<br />and resubmit the schedules. No progress payment shall be
<br />made to Contractor until acceptable schedules are
<br />submitted to Engineer.
<br />1. The Progress Schedule will be acceptable to
<br />Engineer if it provides an orderly progression of the
<br />Work to completion within the Contract Times. Such
<br />acceptance will not impose on Engineer responsibil-
<br />ity for the Progress Schedule, for sequencing,
<br />scheduling, or progress of the Work nor interfere
<br />with or relieve Contractor from Contractor's full
<br />responsibility therefor.
<br />2. Contractor's Schedule of Submittals will be
<br />acceptable to Engineer if it provides a workable
<br />arrangement for reviewing and processing the
<br />required submittals.
<br />3. Contractor's Schedule of Values will be accept-
<br />able to Engineer as to form and substance if it
<br />provides a reasonable allocation of the Contract Price
<br />to component parts of the Work.
<br />ARTICLE 3 - CONTRACT DOCUMENTS: INTENT,
<br />AMENDING, REUSE
<br />3.01 Intent
<br />A. The Contract Documents are complementary; what is
<br />required by one is as binding as if required by all.
<br />B. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to describe a
<br />functionally complete Project (or part thereof) to be
<br />constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents.
<br />Any labor, documentation, services, materials, or equip-
<br />ment that may reasonably be inferred from the Contract
<br />Documents or from prevailing custom or trade usage as
<br />being required to produce the intended result will be
<br />provided whether or not specifically called for at no
<br />additional cost to Owner.
<br />C. Clarifications and interpretations of the Contract
<br />Documents shall be issued by Engineer as provided in
<br />Article 9.
<br />3.02 Reference Standards
<br />A. Standards, Specifications, Codes, Laws, and
<br />Regulations
<br />1. Reference to standards, specifications, manuals,
<br />or codes of any technical society, organization, or
<br />association, or to Laws or Regulations, whether such
<br />reference be specific or by implication, shall mean
<br />the standard, specification, manual, code, or Laws or
<br />Regulations in effect at the time of opening of Bids
<br />(or on the Effective Date of the Agreement if there
<br />were no Bids), except as may be otherwise
<br />specifically stated in the Contract Documents.
<br />2. No provision of any such standard, specification,
<br />manual or code, or any instruction of a Supplier shall
<br />be effective to change the duties or responsibilities of
<br />Owner, Contractor, or Engineer, or any of their
<br />subcontractors, consultants, agents, or employees
<br />from those set forth in the Contract Documents. No
<br />such provision or instruction shall be effective to
<br />assign to Owner, or Engineer, or any of, their Related
<br />Entities, any duty or authority to supervise or direct
<br />the performance of the Work or any duty or authority
<br />to undertake responsibility inconsistent with the
<br />provisions of the Contract Documents.
<br />3.03 Reporting and Resolving Discrepancies
<br />A. Reporting Discrepancies
<br />1. Contractor's Review of Contract Documents
<br />Before Starting Work: Before undertaking each part
<br />of the Work, Contractor shall carefully study and
<br />compare the Contract Documents and check and
<br />verify pertinent figures therein and all applicable
<br />field measurements. Contractor shall promptly report
<br />in writing to Engineer any conflict, error, ambiguity,
<br />or discrepancy which Contractor may discover and
<br />shall obtain a written interpretation or clarification
<br />from Engineer before proceeding with any Work
<br />affected thereby.
<br />2. Contractor's Review of Contract Documents
<br />During Performance of Work: If, during the
<br />performance of the Work, Contractor discovers any
<br />conflict, error, ambiguity, or discrepancy within the
<br />Contract Documents or between the Contract Docu-
<br />ments and any provision of any Law or Regulation
<br />applicable to the performance of the Work or of any
<br />standard, specification, manual or code, or of any
<br />instruction of any Supplier, Contractor shall promptly
<br />report it to Engineer in writing. Contractor shall not
<br />proceed with the Work affected thereby (except in an
<br />emergency as required by Paragraph 6.16.A) until an
<br />amendment or supplement to the Contract
<br />Documents has been issued by one of the methods
<br />indicated in Paragraph 3.04.
