and integrated agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes prior negotiations,
representations or agreements, either written or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified

execution and completion of the Work. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is

therefrom as being necessary to produce the intended results. Words and abbreviations which have
well-known technical or trade meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with

§ 7.1.4 The cost or credit to the Town resulting from a change in the Work shall be determined in
one or more of the following ways:
1. by mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient
substantiating data to permit evaluation;
2. by unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon;
3. by cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable
fixed or percentage fee, not to exceed five percent (5%); or
4. by the method provided in Section 7.1.5.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Contract, including but not limited to this Article
7, if the Contract contains unit prices for the Work to be changes, such unit prices shall apply to
the proposed changes in the Work, unless the Town, in its sole discretion, authorizes separate
pricing for such proposed changes.
§ 7.1.5 If none of the methods set forth in Section 7.1.4 is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided
he receives a written order signed by the Town, shall promptly proceed with the Work involved.

the reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change,
including, in the case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable allowance for overhead and
profit which shall not exceed five percent(5%). In such case, and also under Section 7.1.4 above,

data for inclusion in a Change Order. Unless otherwise authorized by the Town, in its sole
discretion, cost shall be limited to the following: actual cost of materials, including sales tax and
cost of delivery; labor, including social security, old age and unemployment insurance, and fringe
benefits required by agreement or custom; workers' or workmen's compensation insurance; bond
premiums, and rental value of equipment and machinery. Pending final determination of cost to
the Town,payments on account shall be made on the Town's Certificate for Payment. The amount
of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Town for any deletion or change which results in
a net decrease in the Contract Sum will be the amount of the actual net cost. When both additions
and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in any one change, the allowance
for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of the net increase, if any,with respect to that
change,but in no event shall exceed five percent (5%). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Contract, the Town shall not be required to pay for any costs for changes in the Work for
which the Contractor fails to provide adequate documentary support.
§ 7.1.6 Unit prices shall be as stated in the Bid Form and the Contract, and Contractor hereby
agrees that said unit prices include all costs of the Work to which such unit price applies,including
but not limited to the costs listed in Section 7.1.5. No additional charges shall be allowed for these
items under any circumstances.
§ 7.1.7 If deductions are ordered, the credit shall be computed as net cost.
§ 7.1.8 The Contractor shall not sublet any work under a Change Order or a Construction Change
Directive unless work of a similar type under the Agreement was previously subcontracted; and
Subcontractors will not be allowed to further sublet any work under a Change order or
Construction Change Directive unless the work of a similar type was previously sublet by them,
without the written approval and acceptance of the Town.

amount for which it determines is properly due. The Town may also decline to make payment
because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations and may nullify the
whole or any part of any Certificate for Payment previously issued to such extent as may be
necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect against or recover a loss arising out of, among other

materials or equipment;
.4 reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the
Contract Sum;

§ 9.6 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
§ 9.6.1 After the Architect/Engineer has issued a Certificate for Payment, the Town shall make
payment in the manner and within the time provided in General Laws Chapter 30, Section 39, and
the Contract Documents. The Town reserves the right to a 5% general retainage from each
progress payment,which retainage shall be released to the Contractor upon substantial completion,
less amounts properly allocated to punch list work and potential claims of the Town and such other
amounts which the Town may withhold under the Contract and at law, including but not limited
to G.L. c. 30, § 39G/K. Acceptance of progress payments by the Contractor shall constitute a
waiver of claims known or knowable at the time by the Contractor except those previously made
in writing and identified by the Contractor as unsettled at the time of progress payment.
§ 9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the
Town, out of the amount paid to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the

from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work.
Contractor agrees that should it fail to do so and, as a result, claim is made by a subcontractor on
the payment bond furnished by the Contractor, and the Contractor is adjudicated as being
responsible for such payment, Contractor shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Contract or at law, be solely responsible for payment of the subcontractor's attorney's fees if and
to the extent such fees are required to be paid to the subcontractor under any contract or applicable
law, and under no circumstances shall Contractor seek to charge such fees against the Town.
§ 9.6.2.1 If at any time there shall be evidence of any lien or other claim for which, if established,
the Town may become liable, directly or indirectly, and which is chargeable to the Contractor,the
Town may retain out of the payment then due or thereafter to become due, an amount sufficient to
completely indemnify it against any such claim. If there proves to be any such claims after all the
payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the Town all moneys that the Town pays in
discharging such claim in consequence of the Contractor's default.
§ 9.6.2.2 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work (including materials and equipment)
covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Town either by incorporation in the Work
or upon the receipt of payment by the Contractor,whichever occurs first, free and clear of all liens,
claims, security interests or encumbrances.
§ 9.6.3 The Town shall not have any obligation to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys to
any Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law.

accordance with the Contract Documents.
§ 9.6.5 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.6 but subject to paragraph 9.6.2, all progress
payments shall be made in accordance with Chapter 30, Sections 39F, 39G and 39K (as
appropriate) of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, as amended.
§ 9.7 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
§ 9.7.1 The term "Substantial Completion" as used in this Agreement shall mean the point at
which, as certified in writing by the Architect/Engineer, the Project is at a level of completion in
strict compliance with this Contract such that the Town or its designee can enjoy beneficial use
and can use or operate it in all respects for its intended purpose and only minor items which can
be corrected or completed without any material interference with the Town's use of the Work
remain to be corrected or completed. Partial use of the Project shall not result in the Project being
deemed substantially complete, and such partial use shall not be evidence of substantial
completion. When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a designated portion thereof which
is acceptable to the Town, is substantially complete as defined in Section 8.1.3, the Contractor
shall prepare for submission to the Town a list of items to be completed or corrected. The failure
to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all
Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.

the Town for all related cost incurred, and such cost will be deducted from the Contractor's final
payment.
§ 9.9.3 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall
constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified
by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment.
§ 9.9.4 Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, final payment shall
be made in accordance with the requirements of G.L.c.30, §39K (building projects) or §39G

adjustment shall be affected whether or not final payment has been made.

Dewatering
Dewatering includes lowering the water table and intercepting seepage which would otherwise
emerge from the slopes or bottom of the excavation; increasing the stability of excavated slopes;
preventing loss of material from beneath the slopes or bottom of the excavation; reducing lateral
loads on sheeting and bracing; improving the excavation and hauling characteristics of sandy soil;
preventing rupture or heaving of the bottom of any excavation; and disposing of pumped water.
The Contractor is responsible for the adequacy of the dewatering systems. The dewatering systems
shall be capable of effectively reducing the hydrostatic pressure and lowering the groundwater
levels to a minimum of 2 feet below excavation bottom,unless otherwise required by the Engineer,
so that all excavation bottoms are firm and dry. The dewatering system shall be capable of
maintaining a dry and stable subgrade until the structures, pipes and appurtenances to be built
therein have been completed to the extent that they will not be floated or otherwise damaged.
Dewatering Operations
All water pumped or drained from the work shall be disposed of in a manner that will not result in
undue interference with other work or damage to adjacent properties, pavements and other
surfaces, buildings, structures and utilities. Suitable temporary pipes, flumes or channels shall be
provided for water that may flow along or across the site of the work. Dewatering facilities shall
be located where they will not interfere with utilities and construction work to be done by others.
Dewatering procedures to be used shall be as described below:
1. Crushed stone shall encapsulate the suction end of the pump to aid in minimizing the
amount of silt discharged.
2. For dewatering operations with relatively minor flows, pump discharges shall be directed
into hay bale sedimentation traps lined with filter fabric. Water is to be filtered through the
hay bales and filter fabric prior to being allowed to seep out into its natural watercourse.
3. For dewatering operations with larger flows, pump discharges shall be into a steel
dewatering basin. Steel baffle plates shall be used to slow water velocities to increase the
contact time and allow adequate settlement of sediment prior to discharge into waterways.
4. Where indicated on the contract drawings or in conditions of excess silt suspended in the
discharge water, silt control bags shall be utilized in catch basins.

steel used for bracing shall be of such size and strength as required in the excavation support
design. Timber or steel used for bracing shall be new or undamaged used material which does not
contain splices, cutouts,patches, or other alterations which would impair its integrity or strength.
Work shall not be started until all materials and equipment necessary for their construction are
either on the site of the work or satisfactorily available for immediate use as required. The sheeting
shall be securely and satisfactorily braced to withstand all pressures to which it may be subjected
and be sufficiently tight to minimize lowering of the groundwater level outside the excavation.
The sheeting shall be driven by approved means to the design elevation. No sheeting may be left
so as to create a possible hazard to safety of the public or a hindrance to traffic of any kind. If
boulders or very dense soils are encountered,making it impractical to drive a section to the desired
depth, the section shall, as required, be cut off. The sheeting shall be left in place where indicated
on the drawings or required by the Engineer in writing. At all other locations,the sheeting may be
left in place or salvaged at the option of the Contractor. Steel or wood sheeting permanently left
in place shall be cut off at a depth of not less than two feet below finish grade unless otherwise
The hydrostatic test shall consist of raising the water pressure within the test section to a pressure
not less than 1.25 times the working pressure of the pipeline measured at the highest elevation
along the test section and not less than 1.5 times the working pressure of the lowest elevation of
the test section. The specified test pressure shall be corrected to the elevation of the test gauge.
The hydrostatic test shall be of at least a 2 hour duration. The test pressure shall not vary by more
than +/- 5 psi for the duration of the test. Test pressure shall be maintained within this tolerance
by adding makeup water through the pressure test pump into the pipeline test section.
