If Engineer concludes that a change in the Contract Documents is required, a Work Change <br />Directive or a Change Order will be issued to reflect and document such consequences. An <br />equitable adjustment shall be made in the Contract Price or Contract Times, or both, to the <br />extent that they are attributable to the existence or location of any Underground Facility <br />that was not shown or indicated or not shown or indicated with reasonable accuracy in the <br />Contract Documents and that Contractor did not know of and could not reasonably have <br />been expected to be aware of or to have anticipated. If Owner and Contractor are unable to <br />agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of any such adjustment in <br />Contract Price or Contract Times, Owner or Contractor may make a Claim therefor as <br />provided in Paragraph 10.05. <br />4.05 Reference Points <br />A. Owner shall provide engineering surveys to establish reference points for construction which in <br />Engineer's judgment are necessary to enable Contractor to proceed with the Work. Contractor <br />shall be responsible for laying out the Work, shall protect and preserve the established reference <br />points and property monuments, and shall make no changes or relocations without the prior <br />written approval of Owner. Contractor shall report to Engineer whenever any reference point <br />or property monument is lost or destroyed or requires relocation because of necessary changes <br />in grades or locations, and shall be responsible for the accurate replacement or relocation of <br />such reference points or property monuments by professionally qualified personnel. <br />4.06 Hazardous Environmental Condition at Site <br />A. Reports and Drawings: The Supplementary Conditions identify those reports and drawings <br />known to Owner relating to Hazardous Environmental Conditions that have been identified at <br />the Site. <br />B. Limited Reliance by Contractor on Technical Data Authorized: Contractor may rely upon the <br />accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such reports and drawings, but such reports and <br />drawings are not Contract Documents. Such "technical data" is identified in the Supplementary <br />Conditions. Except for such reliance on such "technical data," Contractor may not rely upon or <br />make any claim against Owner or Engineer, or any of their officers, directors, members, <br />partners, employees, agents, consultants, or subcontractors with respect to: <br />1. the completeness of such reports and drawings for Contractor's purposes, including, but not <br />limited to, any aspects of the means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures of <br />construction to be employed by Contractor and safety precautions and programs incident <br />thereto; or <br />2. other data, interpretations, opinions and information contained in such reports or shown or <br />indicated in such drawings; or <br />3. any Contractor interpretation of or conclusion drawn from any "technical data" or any such <br />other data, interpretations, opinions or information. <br />EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract <br />Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC.
