CONTROL WORK
If the Contractor fails to perform required maintenance or erosion control
operations and the Engineer has reason to believe that said failure will result in (a) an end
product not meeting the requirements of the contract, (b) damage to adjacent property, (c)
an unnecessary inconvenience to the traveling public, (d) conditions hazardous to the
traveling public, or (e) a violation that may result in the issuance of an NOV, ICA, or C
& D, the Engineer should take immediate steps to have this work performed. The
Contractor should be advised, in writing, of the work required, the necessity for such
work, and the sanctions provided for by Article 105-16 of the Specifications. The
Contractor should be given a reasonable time to begin and adequately pursue the required
work. If the Contractor fails to begin the work within the time limit specified, the
Engineer should, with the approval of the Division Engineer, take whatever steps are
necessary and available to have the work performed by others. Any costs incurred by the
Department for work performed by others as provided above in excess of the costs that
would have been incurred had the work been performed by the Contractor will be
deducted from monies due the Contractor on his contract.
This article of the Specifications places a responsibility both on the Contractor
and the Engineer to have required maintenance work performed.
105-17 INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE
The Chief Engineer has delegated the final inspection and acceptance responsibility
to the Division Engineer on Purchase Order Projects and resurfacing projects with 100%
State funds. The Roadway Construction Engineers and Bridge Construction Engineers
will have this responsibility on all other projects. The Roadway Construction Engineer is
charged with the responsibility of inspecting all roadway work with the exception of
gravity retaining walls, pile panel/pile timber walls, structural plate pipe, and overhead
sign structures. These roadway items, as well as all reinforced concrete culverts,
reinforced concrete retaining walls, proprietary walls (i.e. Reinforced Earth, TRES,
Double Wall, etc.), and bridge work are to be inspected by the Bridge Construction
Engineer. See Preconstruction Conference in the Records and Report Section of this
Manual for more details.
TWELVE MONTH GUARANTEE
Many contracts contain a Twelve Month Guarantee Provision which covers major
components of work for which the Contractor is wholly responsible. See Twelve Month
Guarantee in the Records and Reports Section of this Manual for more information
