Whenever it is specified or described in the Bidding Documents that a substitute or "or -equal" item of material or equipment may be furnished or used by Contractor if acceptable to Engineer, application for such acceptance will not be considered by Engineer until after the effective date of the Agreement.

Such list shall be accompanied by an experience statement with pertinent information regarding similar projects and other evidence of qualification for each such subcontractor, supplier, individual, or entity if requested by Owner.

Declining to make requested substitutions will not constitute grounds for forfeiture of the Bid Security of any Bidder.
