<br />Correction or Removal of Defective Bork:
<br />13.11. If required by ENGINEER, CONTRACTOR shall
<br />promptly, as directed, either correct all defective Work, whether
<br />or not fabricated, installed or completed, or, if the Work has
<br />been rejected by ENGINEER, remove it from the site and
<br />replace it with Work that is not defective. CONTRACTOR shall
<br />pay all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by or resulting
<br />from such correction or removal (including but not limited to all
<br />costs of repair or replacement of work of others).
<br />'' 13.12. Correction Period
<br />13.12.1. If within one year after the date of Substantial
<br />Completion or such longer period of time as may be pre-
<br />scribed by Laws or Regulations or by the terms of any
<br />applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Doc-
<br />uments or by any specific provision of the Contract Docu-
<br />ments, any Work is found to be defective, CONTRACTOR
<br />shall promptly, without cost to OWNER and in accordance
<br />with OWNER's written instructions: (i) correct such defec-
<br />tive Work, or, if it has been rejected by OWNER, remove it
<br />from the site and replace it with Work that is not defective,
<br />and (ii) satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any
<br />damage to other Work or the work of others resulting
<br />therefrom. If CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply
<br />with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency
<br />where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage,
<br />OWNER may have the defective Work corrected or the
<br />rejected Work removed and replaced, and all claims, costs,
<br />losses and damages caused by or resulting from such re-
<br />moval and replacement (including but not limited to all costs
<br />of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid by
<br />CONTRACTOR.
<br />13.12.2. In special circumstances where a particular item
<br />of equipment is placed in continuous service before Substan-
<br />tial Completion of all the Work, the correction period for that
<br />item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided in
<br />the Specifications or by Written Amendment.
<br />13.12.3. Where defective Work (and damage to other
<br />Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed or
<br />replaced under this paragraph 13.12, the correction period
<br />hereunder with respect to such Work will be extended for an
<br />additional period of one year after such correction or re-
<br />moval and replacement has been satisfactorily completed.
<br />Acceptance of Defective Work.
<br />13.13. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and
<br />replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to ENGI-
<br />NEER's recommendation of final payment, also ENGINEER)
<br />prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so. CONTRACTOR shall
<br />pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to
<br />OWNER's evaluation of and determination to accept such
<br />defective Work (such costs to be approved by ENGINEER as
<br />to reasonableness). If any such acceptance occurs prior to
<br />ENGINEER's recommendation of final payment, a Change
<br />Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in
<br />the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and OWNER
<br />shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract
<br />Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount
<br />thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor as provided in
<br />.Article 11. If the acceptance occurs after such recommenda-
<br />tion, an appropriate amount will be paid by CONTRACTOR to
<br />OWNER.

<br />OWAER May Correct Defective Work
<br />13.14. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
<br />after written notice from ENGINEER to correct defective
<br />Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by
<br />ENGINEER in accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if CON-
<br />TRACTOR fails to perform the Work in accordance with the
<br />Contract Documents, or if CONTRACTOR fails to comply
<br />with any other provision of the Contract Documents, OWNER
<br />may, after seven days' written notice to CONTRACTOR,
<br />correct and remedy any such deficiency. In exercising the
<br />rit'hts and remedies under this paragraph OWNER shall pro-
<br />ceed expeditiously. In connection with such corrective and
<br />remedial action, OWNER may exclude CONTRACTOR from
<br />all or part of the site, take possession of all or part of the Work,
<br />and suspend CONTRACTOR's services related thereto, take
<br />possession of CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construc-
<br />tion equipment and machinery at the site and incorporate in the
<br />Work all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which
<br />OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are stored
<br />elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow OWNER, OWNER's
<br />representatives, agents and employees, OWNER's other con-
<br />tractors and ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consultants ac-
<br />cess to the site to enable OWNER to exercise the rights and
<br />remedies under this paragraph. All claims, costs, losses and
<br />damages incurred or sustained by OWNER in exercising such
<br />rights and remedies will be charged against CONTRACTOR
<br />and a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary
<br />revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work;
<br />and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the
<br />Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the
<br />amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor as
<br />provided in Article 11. Such claims, costs, losses and damages
<br />will include but not be limited to all costs of repair or replace-
<br />ment of work of others destroyed or damaged by correction,
<br />removal or replacement of CONTRACTOR's defective Work.
<br />CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension of the
<br />Contract Times (or Milestones) because of any delay in the
<br />performance ofthe Work attributable to the exercise by OWNER
<br />of OWNER's rights and remedies hereunder.
