STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Form No 7 TILITI-64 UTILITIES UTILITY WORK BY HIGHWAY CONTRACTOR MASTER AGREEMENT 11114 (AT UAO AND FDOT EXPENSE COMBINED) performed, adequate funds to ensure that cash on deposit with the FDOT is sufficient to fully fund its share of the project costs. The FDOT shall notify the UAO as soon as it becomes apparent the actual costs will overrun the award amount; however, failure of the FDOT to so notify the UAO shall not relieve the UAO from its obligation to pay for its full share of project costs on final accounting as provided herein below. The FDOT may use the funds paid by the UAO for payment of the cost of the non -reimbursable Utility Work. The Contingency Fund may be used for increases in the cost of the non -reimbursable Utility Work which occur because of quantity overruns or because of adjustments or changes in the Utility Work made pursuant to Subparagraph 2. h. Prior to using any of the Contingency Fund, the FDOT will obtain the written concurrence of the person delegated that responsibility by written notice from the UAO. The delegatee shall respond immediately to all requests for written concurrence. If the delegatee refuses to provide written concurrence promptly and the FDOT determines that the work is necessary, the FDOT may proceed to perform the work and recover the cost thereof pursuant to the provisions of Section 337.403(3), Florida Statutes. In the event that the Contingency Fund is depleted, the UAO shall, within fourteen (14) calendar days from notification from the FDOT, pay to the FDOT an additional 10% of the total obligation of the UAO for the cost of the Utility Work established under Subparagraph 3. f. for future use as the Contingency Fund. Upon final payment to the Contractor, the FDOT intends to have its final and complete accounting of all costs incurred in connection with the work performed hereunder within three hundred sixty (360) days. All project cost records and accounts shall be subject to audit by a representative of the UAO for a period of three (3) years after final close out of the Project. The UAO will be notified of the final cost. Both parties agree that in the event the final accounting of total project costs pursuant to the terms of this agreement is less than the total deposits to date, a refund of the excess will be made by the FDOT to the UAO in accordance with Section 215.422, Florida Statutes. In the event said final accounting of total project costs is greater than the total deposits to date, the UAO will pay the additional amount within forty (40) calendar days from the date of the invoice. The UAO agrees to pay interest at a rate as established pursuant to Section 55.03, Florida Statutes, on any invoice not paid within the time specified in the preceding sentence until the invoice is paid. 4. Claims Against UAO a. The UAO shall be responsible for all costs incurred as a result of any delay to the FDOT or its contractors caused by errors or omissions in the Plans Package (including inaccurate location of the Facilities) or by failure of the UAO to properly perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely manner. b. In the event the FDOT's contractor provides a notice of intent to make a claim against the FDOT relating to the Utility Work, the FDOT will notify the UAO of the notice of intent and the UAO will thereafter keep and maintain daily field reports and all other records relating to the intended claim. c. In the event the FDOT's contractor makes any claim against the FDOT relating to the Utility Work, the FDOT will notify the UAO of the claim and the UAO will cooperate with the FDOT in analyzing and resolving the claim within a reasonable time. Any resolution of any portion of the claim directly between the UAO and the FDOT's contractor shall be in writing, shall be subject to written FDOT concurrence, and shall specify the extent to which it resolves the claim against the FDOT. d. The FDOT may withhold payment of surplus funds to the UAO until final resolution (including any actual payment required) of all claims relating to the Utility Work. The right to withhold shall be limited to actual claim payments made by the FDOT to the FDOT's contractor.
