City of Sunny Isles Beach NE 174th Street Roadway Improvements 00800-7 Special Conditions and Supplementary Conditions 14-1758 / 09-19-2014 relocations to avoid conflict shall be the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR and the utility company involved. No additional payment will be made for any form of utility relocation, whether or not said relocation is necessitated by this project to avoid conflict therewith. No contract time extensions shall be allowed to the CONTRACTOR for utility conflict resolutions. A. As far as possible, all existing utility lines in the project area have been shown on the Plans. However, the CITY does not guarantee that all lines are shown, or that the utilities indicated are in their true location. It shall be the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to identify and locate all underground or overhead utility lines or equipment affected by the project. No additional payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR because of discrepancies in actual and plan location of utilities, and damages suffered as a result thereof. When the ENGINEER’s redesign is required to avoid utility conflicts, it is the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to inform the CITY and the ENGINEER and submit detailed survey information of the conflict sufficiently ahead of construction to allow for redesign at no additional extension of contract time. B. All overhead, surface or underground structures and utilities encountered in trenching, whether shown on the Plans or not shown on the Plans, are to be carefully protected from injury or displacement. All damage to such structures is to be completely repaired within a reasonable time - needless delay will not be tolerated. The CITY reserves the right to make such repairs at the expense of the CONTRACTOR. All such repairs made by the CONTRACTOR are to be made to the satisfaction of the Utility Owner; all damaged utilities must be replaced or prevented from leaking. All repairs are to be inspected by the Utility Owner prior to backfilling. C. The CONTRACTOR should be aware of the One-Call Center, which has a free locating service for CONTRACTOR’s and excavators. Within 48-hours before excavating, dial toll free 1-800-432-4770, and a locator will be dispatched to the work location. D. Where it is necessary for the CONTRACTOR to interrupt water and sewer service to existing buildings, the CONTRACTOR shall prepare and submit to the OWNER and ENGINEER (72 hours prior to commencing work), a complete description of his proposed procedure and a time schedule which he will guarantee. Twenty-four (24) hours prior to the time proposed for starting the work, the CONTRACTOR will be notified whether or not the work will be permitted as proposed. In no case will the CONTRACTOR be permitted to interfere with any existing service until all materials, supplies, equipment, tools and incidentals necessary to complete the work are on the job site.
