<br />after final completion and whether or not fabricated, installed, or completed. If Work has <br />been rejected by NE or City's Representative, the NE or City's Representative shall <br />have the right to require the Contractor to remove it from the Project site and replace it <br />with Work that strictly conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents <br />regardless if such removal and replacement results in "economic waste." Contractor <br />shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by or resulting from the <br />correction, removal or replacement of defective Work, including but not limited to, all <br />costs of repair or replacement of Work of others. The Contractor shall bear costs of <br />correcting, removing and replacing such rejected Work, including additional testing and <br />inspections and compensation for the NE's services and expenses made necessary <br />thereby. If prior to the date of final payment, the Contractor, a Subcontractor or anyone <br />for whom either is responsible uses or damages any portion of the Work, including, <br />without limitation, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and other building systems, <br />machinery, equipment or other mechanical device, the Contractor shall cause such item <br />to be restored to "like new" condition at no expense to the City. <br /> <br />9.2.2 If, within twelve (12) months after the date of Final Completion of the Work or designated <br />portion thereof, or after the date for commencement of warranties, or by terms of an <br />applicable special warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is <br />found not to be in strict accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the <br />Contractor shall correct or remove and replace such defective Work, at the City's <br />discretion. Such twelve (12) month period is referred to as the "Guarantee Period." The <br />obligations under this Paragraph 9.2.2 shall cover any repairs, removal and replacement <br />to any part of the Work or other property caused by the defective Work. <br /> <br />9.2.3 The Contractor shall remove from the site portions of the Work which are not in <br />accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents and are neither corrected <br />by the Contractor nor accepted by the City. <br /> <br />9.2.4 If the Contractor fails to correct nonconforming Work within a reasonable time, the City <br />may correct or remove it and replace such nonconforming Work. If the Contractor does <br />not proceed with correction of such nonconforming Work within a reasonable time fixed <br />by written notice from the City, the City may take action to correct or remove the <br />nonconforming work at the contractor's expense. <br /> <br />9.2.5 The Contractor shall bear the cost of correcting destroyed or damaged Work or property, <br />whether completed or partially completed, of the City or of others caused by the <br />Contractor's correction or removal of Work which is not in accordance with the <br />requirements of the Contract Documents. <br /> <br />9.2.6 The removal and repair of defective work does not constitute a right to claim by the <br />Contractor for a time extension to the Contract. Contractor shall repair and replace <br />defective Work at Contractor's sole expense. <br /> <br />9.3 Acceptance of Nonconforming Work <br /> <br />9.3.1 The City may accept Work which is not in accordance with the Contract Documents, <br />instead of requiring its removal and correction, in its sole discretion. In Such case the <br />Contract Sum will be adjusted as appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be <br />made whether or not final payment has been made. Nothing contained herein shall <br />impose any obligation upon the City to accept nonconforming or defective Work. <br /> <br />PROVISION 10 <br />MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS <br /> <br />29 <br />
