SECTION 8 - CHANGES IN THE WORK
8.1 CHANGES IN THE WORK RESULTING FROM AN
INSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR ARCHITECT TO
CONTRACTOR
A. If Owner or Architect gives Contractor an instruction which
modifies the requirements of the Contract Documents or
delays Substantial Completion, Contractor may be entitled to
an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the
Contract Time. If compliance with the instruction affects the
cost to Contractor to perform the Work, the Guaranteed
Maximum Price will be adjusted to reflect the reasonable
increase or decrease in cost subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 8.1, Paragraphs B through G. If compliance with
the instruction delays Substantial Completion, the Contract
Time will be extended for a period of time commensurate with
such delay subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.1,
Paragraphs B through G and Section 8.3, Paragraph A and
Contractor will be paid liquidated damages for the delay as
set forth in Section 8.3, Paragraph B.
B. If Contractor receives an instruction from Owner or Architect
which Contractor considers to be a Change in the Work,
Contractor, before complying with the instruction, will notify
Architect in writing that Contractor considers such instruction
to constitute a Change in the Work. If Architect agrees that
compliance with the instruction will constitute a Change in
the Work, Contractor will furnish a proposal for a
Modification in accordance with Section 8.1, Paragraphs C.
and D. within ten (10) days.
C. If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Guaranteed Maximum Price (except for costs related to a
time extension) as a result of an instruction by Owner or
Architect, Contractor will furnish a proposal for a Change
Order containing a price breakdown itemized as required by
Owner. The breakdown will be in sufficient detail to allow
Owner to determine any increase or decrease in Direct
Costs as a result of compliance with the instruction. Any
amount claimed for subcontracts will be supported by a
similar price breakdown and will itemize the Subcontractor's
profit and overhead charges. Profit and overhead will be
subject to the following limitations:
1. The Subcontractor's profit and overhead will not exceed
twelve (12) percent of its Direct Costs.
2. Contractor's profit and overhead on work performed by
its own crews will not exceed twelve (12) percent of its
Direct Costs.
3. Contractor's mark up on changes to the work will be the
fee percentage stated in the Agreement.
D. If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Contract Time as a result of an instruction from Owner or
Architect, Contractor will include in its proposal justification
to support Contractor's claim that compliance with the
instruction will delay Substantial Completion.
E. Upon receipt of Contractor's proposal for Modification,
Architect and Owner will determine whether to proceed with
the Change in the Work. If Architect and Owner determine
to proceed with the Change in the Work, they will issue a
Change Order, a Construction Change Directive or a Field
Change as appropriate.
F. Contractor agrees that if it complies with an instruction from
Owner or Architect without first giving written notice to
Architect as provided in Section 8.1., Paragraph B, and
receiving a Change Order, Construction Change Directive
or Field Change, Contractor will not be entitled to any
adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the
Contract Time as a result of the instruction and waives any
claim therefor.
G. If Contractor is instructed to perform work which it claims
constitutes a Change in the Work but which Owner and
Architect do not agree constitutes a Change in the Work,
Contractor will comply with the instruction. Contractor may
submit its claim for adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum
Price, the Contract Time, or both as a dispute pursuant to
Section 14 within thirty (30) days after compliance with the
instruction. Contractor agrees that if it fails to submit its
claim for resolution pursuant to Section 14 within thirty (30)
days after compliance with the instruction, then Contractor
will not be entitled to any adjustment in the Guaranteed
Maximum Price or the Contract Time as a result of the
instruction and waives any claim therefor.
8.2 CHANGE IN THE WORK RESULTING FROM AN EVENT
OR CIRCUMSTANCE
A. If an event or circumstance other than an instruction from
Owner or Architect affects the cost to Contractor of
performing the Work or delays Substantial Completion,
Contractor may be entitled to an adjustment in the
Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the Contract Time. If the
circumstance or event affects the cost to Contractor to
perform the Work and is caused by a willful or negligent act
or omission of Owner or Architect, the Guaranteed
Maximum Price will be adjusted to reflect the reasonable
increase or decrease in Contractor's cost to perform the
Work resulting from the event or circumstance, subject to
the conditions set forth in Section 8.2, Paragraphs B
through F. If the event or circumstance delays Substantial
TSS-LEG-0023-US Rev.G June 2005 Page 8 of 14
Completion and is described in Section 8.3, Paragraph A, the
Contract Time will be extended for a period of time
commensurate with such delay subject to the conditions set
forth in such Section. If the circumstance or event delays
Substantial Completion and is caused by a willful or negligent
act or omission of Owner or Architect, then Contractor will be
compensated for costs incident to the delay in accordance
with Section 8.3, Paragraph B. Contractor will not be entitled
to any adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or other
damages from Owner as a result of any event or circumstance
unless the event or circumstance results from a willful or
negligent act or omission of Owner or Architect.
If a Change in the Work results from any event or
circumstance caused by the willful or negligent act or
omission of Owner or Architect, Contractor will give Owner
Written Notice of such event or circumstance within twenty-
four (24) hours after commencement of the event or
circumstance so that Owner can take such action as is
necessary to mitigate the effect of the event or circumstance.
Contractor will not be entitled to any adjustment in either the
Contract Time or the Guaranteed Maximum Price based on
any damages or delays resulting from such event or
circumstance during a period more than twenty-four (24)
hours prior to Contractor giving such Written Notice to Owner
Contractor will submit in writing any claims for an adjustment
in the Contract Time and/or the Guaranteed Maximum Price
resulting from an event or circumstance within the time limits
set forth below. In the event that Contractor fails to submit its
claim in writing within the time limits set forth below, then
Contractor agrees it will not be entitled to any adjustment in
the Contract Time or the Guaranteed Maximum Price or to
any other damages from Owner due to the circumstance or
event and waives any claim therefor.
1. Claims for an adjustment in the Contract Time due to
inclement weather will be made by the tenth of the month
following the month in which the delay occurred.
2. Claims for an adjustment in the Contract Time and/or the
Guaranteed Maximum Price due to any other
circumstance or event will be submitted within seven (7)
days after the occurrence of the circumstance or event.
If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Guaranteed Maximum Price (except for costs related to a time
extension) because of an event or circumstance resulting
from the willful or negligent act or omission of Owner or
Architect, Contractor will furnish a proposal for a Change
Order containing a price breakdown as described in Section
8.1, Paragraph C. Any amount claimed for increased labor
costs as a result of the event or circumstance must be
supported by a certified payroll. Any claim for rented
equipment or additional material costs must be supported by
invoices.
If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Contract Time as a result of an event or circumstance,
Contractor will include with its claim copies of daily logs,
letters, shipping orders, delivery tickets, Project schedules,
and other supporting information necessary to justify
Contractor's claim that the event or circumstance delayed
Substantial Completion. If Contractor is entitled to an
adjustment in the Contract Time as a result of an event or
circumstance caused by the willful or negligent act or
omission of Owner or Architect, Contractor will be compensat-
ed for all costs related to the delay in accordance with Section
8.3, Paragraph B.
Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Contractor's claim,
Architect will either deny the claim or recommend approval to
Owner. If Owner approves the claim, the adjustment in the
Contract Time and/or Guaranteed Maximum Price will be
reflected in a Change Order pursuant to Section 8.5 or a
Construction Change Directive pursuant to Section 8.6. If
Owner or Architect denies Contractor's claim, Contractor may
submit its claim as a dispute pursuant to Section 14 within
thirty (30) days of receipt of the denial of the claim. If
Contractor fails to submit its claim for resolution pursuant to
Section 14 within the thirty (30) day time period, then
Contractor agrees it is not entitled to any adjustment in the
Contract Time and/ or Guaranteed Maximum Price or any
other damages as a result of the event or circumstance and
waives any claim therefor.
8.3 EXTENSIONS OF TIME
A. If Substantial Completion of the Project is delayed because
of any of the following causes, then the Contract Time will
be extended by Change Order for a period of time equal to

agreement regarding the adjustment in Guaranteed
Maximum Price or the adjustment in Contract Time
resulting from a Change in the Work, then Owner and

agreement of Architect and Contractor only.
8.5 CHANGE ORDERS
Contractor's signature upon a Change Order is Contractor's
acknowledgment that it is not entitled to any additional
adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the
Contract Time or any other damages or compensation as a
result of the Change in the Work other than that provided
for in the Change Order, irrespective of whether a
subsequent claim for additional compensation or time
extensions relating to the Change in the Work is described
as a change in the requirements of the Contract
Documents, a delay, a disruption of the Work, an
acceleration of the Work, an impact on the efficiency of
performance of the Work, an equitable adjustment, or other
claim and irrespective of whether the impact of the Change
in the Work is considered singly or in conjunction with the
impact of other Changes in the Work.
8.6 CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVES
TSS-LEG-0023-US Rev.G June 2005 Page 9 of 14
A. Contractor will promptly comply with all Construction Change
Directives.
B. Pending final resolution of any adjustment in the Guaranteed

Contractor's payment requests once the work relating thereto
is completed.
C. If after the work described in the Construction Change
Directive is completed, Owner, Architect, and Contractor
reach agreement on adjustments in the Guaranteed Maximum
Price, Contract Time, or both, such agreement will be
reflected in an appropriate Change Order.
D. If the parties do not reach agreement regarding an adjustment
to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, Contract Time, or both
relating to the Construction Change Directive within thirty (30)
days of the completion of the work described therein, then
Contractor may submit its claim for an adjustment pursuant to
Section 14 within thirty (30) days of the completion of such
work. Contractor agrees that if it fails to submit its claim for
resolution pursuant to Section 14 within thirty (30) days of

Architect, any event or circumstance, or any act or omission of
Owner or Architect and Contractor expressly waives any and
all claims therefor.
SECTION 9 - TIME
9.1 TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE
All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the
essence. By executing the Agreement, Contractor confirms
that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing
the Work. Contractor will proceed expeditiously with
adequate resources and will achieve Substantial Completion
within the Contract Time.
9.2 COMMENCEMENT OF THE WORK
Contractor will not commence work on the Project site until
the date set forth in the Written Notice to proceed. However,
Contractor may enter into subcontracts and secure material
for the Project after receipt of the Agreement with Owner's
authorized signature. Owner will issue the Written Notice to
proceed within forty-five (45) days after Owner receives
acceptable bonds and evidence of insurance pursuant to
Section 12 unless Owner earlier terminates the Agreement
pursuant to Section 15.
10.1 SCHEDULE OF VALUES
Contractor will submit to Architect and Owner with its signed
Agreement a schedule of values which allocates the
Guaranteed Maximum Price among the various portions of
the Work. The schedule of values will be supported as well
by any other data required by Owner to substantiate its
accuracy and will be the basis for Contractor's payment
requests. Allowance line item amounts will not be
transferred from one line item to another without Owner's
consent.
10.2 PAYMENT REQUESTS
A. No more than once a month, Contractor will submit a payment
request to Architect for work completed, materials stored on site,
and for materials stored offsite as of the date of the payment
request. The amount of the payment request will be based upon
the Schedule of Values submitted by Contractor and will be equal
to:
1. The value of the Work completed. (The value of the
Work completed will be the percentage of the
completed work specified in the Schedule of Values as
Sub Bid Work plus the portions of the work specified in
the Schedule of Values as Contractor's Estimated Costs
that have been actually incurred by Contractor. Owner
may request supporting documentation to be submitted
by Contractor with the payment request.)
2. Plus the value of the Work completed times the
Contractor's Fee percentage.
3. Less retention amounts specified in Supplementary
Conditions.
4. Less all prior amounts paid by Owner to Contractor as
part of the Contract Sum.
5. Less allowable offsets.
The payment request may include Changes in the Work that
have been performed by Contractor and authorized by
Owner and/or Architect pursuant to Section 8. If a payment
request includes materials stored offsite, Contractor will
include with the payment request a list of the materials, the
location where they are stored and the written request of
Contractor and its performance bond surety that payment
be made for such materials.
Contractor warrants and guarantees that upon the receipt of
payment for materials and equipment, whether incorporated
in the Project or not, title to such materials and equipment
will pass to Owner free and clear of all liens, claims, security
interests, or encumbrances. Notwithstanding this payment
and passage of title, Contractor will remain responsible for
all such materials and equipment until actual delivery to the
project site, incorporation into the Work and final
acceptance by Owner. Contractor further warrants that no
material or equipment covered by a payment request is
subject to an agreement under which an interest therein or
an encumbrance thereon is retained by the seller or any
other person or entity.
10.3 PAYMENT REQUEST CERTIFICATION
A. Architect will, within seven (7) days after receipt of
Contractor's payment request, forward to Owner the pay-
ment request certified for such amount as Architect
determines is properly due. If Architect certifies less than
the full amount of the payment request, Architect will notify
Contractor and Owner of Architect's reasons for withholding
certification of the full amount requested.
The certification of the payment request will constitute a
representation by Architect to Owner based upon Architect's
observations at the site and the data comprising the
payment request, that the Work has progressed to the point
indicated and that, to the best of Architect's knowledge,
information, and belief, the quality of the Work is in
accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing
representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for
conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial
Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections,
to minor deviations from the Contract Documents
TSS-LEG-0023-US Rev.G June 2005 Page 10 of 14
correctable prior to completion, and to specific qualifications
expressed by Architect. However, the certification of the
payment request will not constitute a representation that
Architect has:
1. Conducted exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections
to check the quantity or quality of the Work;
2. Reviewed construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences, or procedures;
3. Reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcon-
tractors or other data requested by Owner to substantiate
Contractor's right to payment; or
4. Made examination to ascertain how or for what purpose
Contractor has used money previously paid on account of
the Contract Sum.
C. In taking action on Contractor's payment request, Owner will
be entitled to rely on the accuracy and completeness of the
information furnished by Contractor.
10.4 DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD CERTIFICATION AND
PAYMENT
A. Architect may withhold certification of a payment request in
whole or in part to the extent reasonably necessary to protect
Owner if, in the opinion of Architect, the representations to
Owner required by Section 10.3, Paragraph B cannot be
accurately made. If Architect is unable to certify payment in
the amount of the payment request, Architect will notify
Contractor and Owner as provided in Section 10.3, Paragraph
A. If Contractor and Architect cannot agree on a revised
amount, Architect will promptly certify a payment request for
the amount for which Architect is able to make such repre-
sentations to Owner. Architect may also decide not to certify
payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or
subsequent observations, may nullify the whole or a part of a
payment request previously certified, to such extent as may
be necessary in Architect's opinion to protect Owner from loss
because of:
1. Defective work not remedied;
2. Third -party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating
probable filing of such claims;
3. Failure of Contractor to make payments properly to
Subcontractors for labor, materials, equipment,
construction or services;
4. Reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed
for the unpaid balance of the Guaranteed Maximum Price;
5. Damage to Owner or another contractor for which
Contractor is responsible;
6. Reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed
within the Contract Time and that the unpaid balance will
not be adequate to cover the cost of completing the Work
and damages for the anticipated delay; or
7. Contractor's persistent failure to carry out the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. Owner reserves the right to withhold payments to Contractor,
subsequent to Architect's certification of any payment request,
in order to protect Owner from loss due to any condition
described in Section 10.4, Paragraph A, Subparagraphs 1
through 7. Upon satisfactory resolution of any such conditions,
payments so withheld will be made.
10.5 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
A. Owner will pay Contractor progress payments within the
parameters of Section 10.2 within fifteen (15) days after
Owner receives the certified payment request from Architect.
B. Owner will pay any unpaid retention less any amounts
withheld pursuant to Section 10.4 within fifteen (15) days after
Contractor achieves Substantial Completion, submits its
payment request for retained funds and delivers to Architect
Owner's form entitled "Contractor's Substantial Completion
Affidavit and Consent of Surety" fully executed by Contractor
and its surety.
C. Owner will make payments to Contractor by either placing
the payments in the mail addressed to Contractor or by
electronic transfer at Owner's discretion.
D. Upon receipt of any payment from Owner, Contractor will
pay to each Subcontractor the amount paid to Contractor on
account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work.
E. Contractor will maintain a copy of each payment request at
the Project site for review by the Subcontractors.
F. No payment made under the Contract Documents, either in
whole or in part, will be construed to be an acceptance of
defective or improper materials or workmanship.
10.6 FINAL PAYMENT
A. Upon completion of the Work, Contractor will submit its final
accounting of the Cost of the Work to Owner. Owner's
accountants will review and report in writing to the
Contractor on Contractor's final accounting within thirty (30)
days after delivery of the final accounting to Owner by
Contractor.
B. If Owner's accountants report the Cost of the Work as
substantiated by Contractor's final accounting to be less
than claimed by Contractor, Contractor will be entitled to
submit the matter as a dispute pursuant to Section 14.
Contractor will make such submission within thirty (30) days
after Contractor's receipt of the report from Owner's
accountants. If Contractor does not submit the matter as a
dispute within said thirty (30) day period, the final Cost of
the Work will be as determined by Owner's accountants.
Pending a final resolution of the dispute, Owner will pay
Contractor the amount established by Owner's accountants.
Owner will make full and final payment within thirty (30)
days of the completion of all of the following requirements:
1. Architect has declared to Owner in writing that the Work
is complete;
2. Architect has received conditional releases or releases
or waivers of lien from all Subcontractors;
3. Contractor has submitted to Owner Contractor's final
accounting for the Cost of the Work and Contractor's
final payment request;
4. Owner's accountants have reviewed and approved
Contractor's final accounting for the Cost of the Work.
D, The amount of the final payment will be calculated as
follows:
1. Take the sum of the Cost of the Work substantiated by
Contractor's final accounting and Contractor's Fee, but
not more than the Guaranteed Maximum Price;
2. Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by
Owner; and
3. Subtract the amount of any offsets that Contractor owes
to Owner.
E. If the aggregate of previous payments made by Owner
exceeds the amount due Contractor, Contractor will
reimburse the difference to Owner.
F. Acceptance of final payment by Contractor or any Subcon-
tractor will constitute a waiver of claims by that payee
except for those claims previously made in writing pursuant
to Section 8 and identified by Contractor in its affidavit as
still pending.
G. If, subsequent to final payment and at Owner's request,
Contractor incurs Costs of the Work described in Section 7
to correct defective or nonconforming Work, Owner will
reimburse Contractor such costs on the same basis as if
such costs had been incurred prior to final payment, but not
in excess of the Guaranteed Maximum Price.

SECTION 13 - UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION

13.1 UNCOVERING OF WORK
Contractor will notify Architect at least twenty-four (24) hours
in advance of performing work which would cover up work or
otherwise make it difficult to perform inspections required by
the Specifications or by applicable governing authorities.
Should any such work be covered without proper notification
having been given to Architect, Contractor will uncover that
work for inspection at its own expense.
13.2 CORRECTION OF WORK
A. Contractor will promptly correct any portion of the Work which
is rejected by Architect or which fails to conform to the
requirements of the Contract Documents, whether observed
before or after Substantial Completion and whether or not
fabricated, installed, or completed. Contractor will bear the
cost of correcting such rejected Work, including additional
testing and inspection costs, compensation for Architect's
services, and any other expenses made necessary thereby.
Contractor will remedy any defects due to faulty materials,
equipment, or workmanship which appear within a period of
one year from the date of Substantial Completion or within
such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by
the terms of any applicable special warranty required by the
Contract Documents. Contractor will pay all costs of correcting
faulty work, including additional Architect's fees , attorneys
fees, expert fees, consultant fees, copy costs, and other
expenses when incurred.
Nothing in the Contract Documents will be construed to
establish a period of limitation within which Owner may
enforce the obligation of Contractor to comply with the
Contract Documents. The one year period specified above
has no relationship to the time within which compliance with
the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to
the time within which proceedings may be commenced to
establish Contractor's liability with respect to Contractor's
obligations.
13.3 ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK
A. If Owner prefers to accept any portion of the Work not in
conformance with the Contract Documents, Owner may do so
instead of requiring removal and correction of the
nonconforming Work. In that event, the Contract Sum will be
reduced by an amount agreed upon by the parties which
reflects the difference in value to Owner between the Work as
specified and the nonconforming Work. The Guaranteed
Maximum Price will also be reduced by an amount identical to
the reduction in the Contract Sum. Such adjustment may
consider increased maintenance costs, early replacement
costs, increased inefficiency of use, and the like and will be
effective whether or not final payment has been made. Such
adjustment will be reflected in a Change Order pursuant to
Section 8.5.
B. Temporary or trial usage by Owner or Architect of mechanical
devices, machinery, apparatus, equipment, or other work or
materials supplied under the Contract Documents prior to
written acceptance by Architect, will not constitute Owner's
acceptance.
SECTION 14 - RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES
14.1 PROCEDURE
In the event there is any dispute arising under this
Agreement which cannot be resolved by agreement
between the parties, either party may submit the dispute
with all documentation upon which it relies to Owner's
Director of Field Technical Support, Physical Facilities
Department, 50 East North Temple, 4th Floor West Wing,
Salt Lake City, Utah 84150, who will convene a dispute
resolution conference within thirty (30) days. The dispute
resolution conference will constitute settlement negotiations
and any settlement proposal made pursuant to the
conference will not be admissible as evidence of liability. In
the event that the parties do not resolve their dispute
pursuant to the dispute resolution conference, either party
may commence legal action to resolve the dispute. Any
such action must be commenced within six (6) months from
the first day of the dispute resolution conference or be time
barred. Submission of the dispute to the Director as outlined
above is a condition precedent to the right to commence
legal action to resolve any dispute. In the event that either
party commences legal action to adjudicate any dispute
without first submitting the dispute to the Director, the other
party will be entitled to obtain an order dismissing the
litigation without prejudice and awarding such other party
any costs and attorneys fees incurred by that party in
obtaining the dismissal, including without limitation copy
costs and expert and consultant fees and expenses.

therein, make a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, fail to apply enough properly skilled workmen or
specified materials to properly prosecute the Work in
accordance with Contractor's schedule, or otherwise
materially breach any provision of the Contract Documents,
then Owner may, without any prejudice to any other right or
remedy, give Contractor Written Notice thereof. If
Contractor fails to cure its default within ten (10) days,
TSS-LEG-0023-US Rev.G June 2005 Page 13 of 14
Owner may terminate the Agreement by giving Written Notice
to Contractor. In such case, Owner may, in Owner's sole
discretion, take legal assignment of subcontracts and other
contractual rights of Contractor and/or take possession of the

relative to Work provided through the date of termination
survive a termination hereunder.
15.3 TERMINATION BY OWNER FOR CONVENIENCE
Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Contract
Documents, Owner may, without cause and in its absolute
discretion, terminate the Agreement at any time. In the event
of such termination, Contractor will be entitled to recover from
Owner, subject to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Cost of
the Work through the date of termination plus the percentage
of the Contractor's Fee thereon, less any offsets. Contractor
will not be entitled to unearned profits or any other compensa-
tion as a result of the termination and hereby waives any
claim therefor. Contractor will provide to Owner all warranty,
as built, inspection, and other close out documents as well as
materials which Contractor has in its possession or control at
the time of termination. Owner may, in Owner's sole
discretion, take legal assignment of subcontracts and other

PART 3 EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLATION
A. General
1. Take every reasonable precaution to avoid erosion and to prevent silting of rivers, streams, lakes,
reservoirs, impoundments, and drainage ditches and swales.
2. Keep exposure of uncompleted cut slopes, embankments, trench excavations, and site graded
areas as short as possible. Initiate seeding and other erosion control measures on each segment
as soon as reasonably possible.
3. Should it become necessary to suspend construction for any length of time, shape excavated and
graded areas so runoff will be intercepted and diverted to points where minimal erosion will occur.
Provide and maintain temporary erosion and sediment control measures, such as berms, dikes,
slope drains, silt stops, and sedimentation basins, until permanent drainage facilities or erosion
control features have been completed and are operative.
4. Handle and treat fine material placed or exposed during The Work so as to minimize possibility of it
reaching surface waters. Use diversion channels, dikes, sediment traps, or other effective control
measures.
5. Provide silt stops wherever erosion control measures may not be totally capable of controlling
erosion, such as in drainage channels and where steep slopes may exist.
6. Before water is allowed to flow in any ditch, swale, or channel, install permanent erosion control
measures in waterway so waterway will be safe against erosion.
7. Take precautions in using construction equipment to minimize erosion. Do not leave wheel tracks
where erosion might begin.
8. Unless specifically required in Contract Documents, operation of mechanized equipment in
watercourses is not permitted. Where work is required in watercourses, minimize movement of
equipment in the water and remove false work, pilings, debris, and other temporary work as soon
as construction will allow.
9. Wherever crossings of live streams are necessary, provide temporary culverts or bridges to allow
equipment to cross them without fording. Disturbance of lands and waters outside limits of
construction is prohibited, except as may be found necessary and approved in writing by Architect.
10. Mulching shall follow seeding operations by no more than 24 hours.
11. Continue erosion control measures until permanent measures have been sufficiently established
and are capable of controlling erosion on their own.
12. Prior to any construction, install silt fence and stabilized construction entrance.
13. Prior to any vehicle maintenance, install vehicle maintenance area.
14. Prior to receiving any concrete, install concrete washout area.
15. Review locations of entrance, maintenance, and washout with all subcontractors.
B. Hay And Straw Mulching
1. Install hay or straw mulch immediately after areas have been properly prepared.
a. When permanent seed or seed for temporary erosion control is sown prior to placing mulch,
place mulch on seeded areas within 24 hours after seeding.
Bid Package #1 - 3 Section 02370
Sitework, UG MEP, Foundation
Rexburg Idaho Temple
Rexburg, Idaho June 2005 Erosion And Sedimentation Control
b. Architect may authorize blowing of chopped mulch provided that 95 percent of mulch fibers will
be 6 inches or more in length and that mulch can be applied in so there will be a minimum
amount of matting that would retard plant growth.
c. Hay mulch should cover ground enough to shade it, but should not be so thick that a person
standing cannot see ground through mulch.
d. Remove matted mulch or branches.
2. Where mild winds that may blow mulch are probable, when ground slopes exceed 15 percent, or
when otherwise required to maintain mulch firmly in place, apply a system of pegs and strings, a
chemical stabilizer, or temporary type netting to mulch. Unless otherwise directed, remove strings
and netting prior to acceptance of the Work.
3. Where high winds or heavy rainstorms are likely, where ground surfaces are steeper than 15
percent, or where other conditions require, apply temporary type netting over mulch and take
whatever other measures are necessary to maintain mulch firmly in place.
4. Unless otherwise specified, use of permanent type netting is not permitted without the prior written
approval of Architect
C. Matting
1. General -
a. Use of mulch with matting is not permitted. However, 4 to 6 inch overlap of mulch over edge
of matting is allowed.
b. Prepare surfaces of ditches and slopes to conform to grades, contours, and cross sections
shown on Drawings. Finish to smooth, even condition with debris, roots, stone, and lumps
raked out and removed. Loosen soil surface sufficient to permit bedding of matting. Unless
otherwise noted, place seed prior to placement of matting.
c. Unroll matting parallel to direction of water flow and loosely drape, without folds or stretching,
so continuous ground contact is maintained.
d. In ditches and swales and on slopes, place each upslope and each downslope end of each
piece of matting in 6 inch trench, stapled at 12 inches on center, backfilled, and tamped.
Similarly, bury edges of matting along edges of catch basins and other structures. Architect
may require that other edges exposed to more than normal flow of water be buried in similar
fashion.
e. Tightly secure matting to soil with staples driven approximately vertically into ground, flush with
matting surface. Do not form depressions or bulges in matting surface with staples.
f. Increase specified spacing of staples when factors such as season of year or amount of water
encountered or anticipated requires additional anchoring.
2. Jute Matting -
a. Where strips are laid parallel or meet, as in a tee, overlap 4 inches minimum. Overlap ends 6
inches minimum, shingle fashion.
b. Space check slots built at right angles to direction of water flow so one check slot or one end
occurs within each 50 feet of slope length. Construct check slots by placing tight fold of
matting 6 inches minimum vertically into ground. Tamp these same as upslope ends.
c. Press jute matting onto ground with light lawn roller or other satisfactory means.
d. On slopes flatter than 4:1, place staples 36 inches apart maximum in three rows for each strip,
with one row along each edge and one row alternately spaced down center. On grades 4:1 or
steeper, place staples in the same three rows, but spaced 24 inches apart. On lapping edges,
reduce spacing of staples by half. At ends of matting and at required check slots, space
staples 12 inches apart. Staple matting placed adjacent to boulders or other obstructions with
no spaces between staples.
e. Spread additional seed over jute matting, particularly those locations disturbed by building of
slots.
3. Excelsior Matting -
a. Where strips of excelsior matting are laid end to end, butt adjoining ends.
b. When adjoining rolls of excelsior matting are laid parallel to one another, butt matting snugly.
c. On slopes flatter than 4:1, place staples 36 inches maximum apart in three rows for each strip,
with one row along each edge and one row alternately spaced down center. On grades 4:1 or
steeper, place staples in same three rows, but spaced 24 inches apart. Space staples in ends
of matting 12 inches apart. Staple matting placed adjacent to boulders or other obstructions
with no spaces between staples.
4. Erosion Control Mulching Blanket -
Bid Package #1 - 4 Section 02370

1. Provide hay bales or silt fences, as required, for temporary control of erosion and to stop silt and
sediment from reaching surface waters, adjacent properties, or entering catch basins, or damaging
the Work.
2. Stake hay bales firmly in place. Use sufficient number of bales to accommodate runoff without
causing flooding and to adequately store any silt, sediment, and debris reaching them.
3. Erect silt fences and bury bottom edge in accordance with Manufacturer's recommended
installation instructions. Provide sufficient length of fence to accommodate runoff without causing
flooding and to adequately store any silt, sediment, and debris reaching it.
4. After paving use silt snake or engineer approved method to strain storm water flowing to the storm
drains until area that drains to said storm drain is not less than 70% stabilized.
3.2 REPAIR I RESTORATION
A. If any staple becomes loosened or raised, if any matting becomes loose, torn, or undermined, or if any
temporary erosion and sediment control measures are disturbed, repair them immediately.
B. If seed is washed out before germination, repair damage, refertilize, and reseed.
