PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: Page 1 of 22 2 Board of Commissioners Meeting Agenda September 2, 2025 The 5307 Urbanized Area Formula Funding program makes federal resources available to urbanized areas for transit capital and operating assistance in urbanized areas and for transportation-related planning . Eligible 5307 activities include planning, engineering, design, and evaluation of transit projects and other technical transportation-related studies; capital investments in bus and bus-related activities such as replacement, overhaul, and rebuilding of buses, crime prevention and security equipment and construction of maintenance and passenger facilities; and capital investments in new and existing fixed guideway systems including rolling stock, overhaul and rebuilding of vehicles, track, signals, communications, and computer hardware and software . All preventive maintenance and some Americans with Disabilities Act complementary paratransit service costs are considered capital costs . Operating assistance is only an eligible expense for urbanized areas with populations less than 200,000. 5307 funds allocated to the Charlotte urbanized area are distributed using a formula that considers population, bus fleet, and transit service provided in its urbanized area outside of Charlotte, which includes the remainder of Mecklenburg County, Iredell County, York County, and Union County. Based on the current distribution formula created by the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) and approved by the Charlotte Regional Transit Planning Organization (CRTPO), Union County will receive up to : ·$2,041,740 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY23. ·$2,353,090 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY24. ·$2,402,267 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY25. This funding will be used for both operating expenses, which require a 50% local match, and capital expenses, which require a 20% local match. The 5307 Grant will result in an award of Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2023, (FFY) 2024, and (FFY) 2025 Federal Transportation Administration (FTA) funds to Union County. Funds awarded during a given fiscal year are initially allocated for a one-year period of performance, but this may be extended if necessary to enable them to be drawn down over a five-year period after the start of the federal fiscal year of the award . Thus, funds awarded for the : ·FFY23 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2028. ·FFY24 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2029. ·FFY25 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2030. In Union County, 5307 operational-related services are currently provided using demand response, subscription, and contracted fixed-route service . These services are rendered by Union County Transportation, or its subcontractors, and CATS . Union County’s Transportation and Planning staff have developed a list of activities for these funds, which include paying 50 percent of the cost of the existing Union County 74X Express Page 2 of 22 3 Board of Commissioners Meeting Agenda September 2, 2025 bus service and provision of demand-response service in the urbanized portions of the County. The funding allocated for capital-related items will be utilized for the purchase of security-related items as required by the 1% security minimum requirement, safety-related items as required by the 0.75% safety minimum, and for facility renovations FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: The annual Combined Capital program grant is intended to provide financial assistance for the support of public transportation services, which are open to the general public on a regular and continuing basis . Combined Capital funding will provide reimbursement for replacement vehicles that have met NCDOT's useful life of 100,000 miles for conversion and lift vans, minivans, and Light Transit Vehicles . Additionally, it will reimburse other capital needs, such as lettering of vehicles (NCDOT required), radio equipment, etc . The Combined Capital application utilizes funds from the 5311, 5307, 5339 federal programs, which allows Community Transportation (CT) systems, like Union County Transportation, the opportunity to apply for funding for capital projects on a single application, and provides NCDOT Integrated Mobility Division (IMD) the flexibility to fund the approved projects with the type of funds which best suit the projects and manage the funds in the most efficient and effective manner . The Combined Capital application will be reviewed by our NCDOT Mobility Specialist, who will then provide a recommendation to the NC Board of Transportation, which is responsible for determining the final award amounts. The federal share for eligible capital costs may not exceed 80% of the project's net cost. The State and local share of eligible capital costs is 10 percent each; however, State funding is subject to State appropriations and availability of funds. Historically, State funds have been made available, but starting in FY2021, NCDOT has directed local governments Page 3 of 22 4 Board of Commissioners Meeting Agenda September 2, 2025 to be prepared to cover the full 20 percent share, with the assumption that State funds may not be available . The County's Combined Capital funding request for FY 2027 will cover the replacement of three (3) 22’ LTV vehicles with wheelchair lifts for a total request of $427,701, which includes 80 % Federal funding ($342,160) and County funds of a maximum 20% ($85,541). If State funding is awarded at the expected 10% ($42,770), then the local share would be reduced to 10% ($42,771). The FY2027 grant application for Combined Capital funds is due October 4, 2025, and will cover a one-year period of performance from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027. Vehicles funded by this grant and authorized in the FY2027 budget will be purchased utilizing a North Carolina State contract. If vehicles cannot be purchased utilizing a North Carolina state contract, they will be purchased pursuant to applicable law and policy . FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.

BACKGROUND: The annual 5311 Administrative (Non-Urbanized Area Formula Program) is intended to provide financial assistance for the support of public transportation services which are open to the general public on a regular and continuing basis, and to enable maximum feasible coordination with other rural transportation services . 5311 funds can be used for the costs of transit planning activities, transit operations, and the purchase of capital equipment or facilities to aid in the provision of transit services in rural and small urban areas, as well as provide funds for state-level administration. Union County Transportation's 5311 application is submitted only for Administrative expenses and includes no operational components . This 5311 Administrative application will be reviewed by our NCDOT Mobility Specialist, who will then provide a recommendation to the NC Board of Transportation, which is responsible for determining the final award amounts.

The County's 5311 Administrative funding level for FY2027 will be $276,529, which includes 80% Federal funding ($221,223), and County funds of a maximum 20% ($55,306).

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: June 17, 2019 , Regular Meeting, Agenda Item #30 - Approved Amendment #1 to the Interlocal Agreement. BACKGROUND: Union County and the City of Monroe entered into an agreement in 2005 for the provision of water supply and wastewater treatment services Page 6 of 22 7 Board of Commissioners Meeting Agenda September 2, 2025 between the parties. Per the agreement, each party is responsible for its proportional share of capital improvements at the respective facilities . In 2019, the interlocal agreement was updated . The 2019 amendment updated Exhibits 3, 4 & 5 to reflect the City's anticipated improvements at its WWTP facility with an estimated cost of $5,305,370 and the County's improvements at the Catawba River Water Treatment Plant (CRWTP) with an estimated cost of $68,541,270. The County's proportional share of Monroe's WWTP improvements is approximately $1,351,808, while the City's proportional share of the County's improvements at the CRWTP is approximately $3,790,332. Exhibit 6 was also updated to reflect a previous amount owed to the County by the City of Monroe for the relocation of a 42" water main along SC 5. The City had already paid their proportional share. This amendment also reflected changes in interconnects between the Monroe and Union County Water distribution systems. The current amendment (called Amendment to Amendment 1) will update Exhibits 3 to reflect the City's improvements at its WWTP facility with a cost of $6,257,518.65. The County's proportional share of Monroe's WWTP improvements is $1,594,465.81. UC Water was given an estimate in 2022 by the City of Monroe for $1,500,000 for these improvements and budgeted and encumbered this amount in FY 2023. UC Water has received the final invoice for this project of $1,594,465.81 less the 2024 billing true-up of $37,811.95 equaling a payment needed to the City of Monroe for $1,556,653.86. In order to process this payment, the Exhibit 3 must be updated to include the project and cost information . The City of Monroe’s Council approved this “Amendment to Amendment 1 of the Water and Wastewater” agreement at their August 12th meeting. The attached document has been executed by the City Manager . FINANCIAL IMPACT: $1,500,000 was budgeted and encumbered in FY 2023. The difference of $56,653.86 will be paid for from the FY2026 budget. AmendmentAttachments: Resolution to Allow NCDOT to Investigate and Add Roads to the State-Maintained System Without Individual Resolutions 25-531 INFORMATION CONTACT: Lee Jenson, Planning, Director, 704-283-3564 ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt resolution BACKGROUND: From time to time the NCDOT is asked by developers or property owners to investigate a road for addition to the state-maintained road network and if the road meets standards adopted by NCDOT, to add the road to Page 7 of 22 8 Board of Commissioners Meeting Agenda September 2, 2025 the network for maintenance . The process generally requires the Board of Commissioners to pass a resolution authorizing the NCDOT to carry out this process. The process is somewhat burdensome in that staff is required to review the request from NCDOT, prepare individual resolutions, place the resolutions on the Board ’s agenda and make sure that the adopted resolutions are forwarded back to NCDOT . This blanket resolution will allow NCDOT to investigate maintenance requests and add roads to the system without the Board having to adopt individual resolutions.

The Annual Application dictates the eligibility for the aid, which is outlined in 07 NCAC 021 .0201 of the Administrative Code.

The Knox eKey cylinders are required for this upgrade and are only available from The Knox Company, which is the sole source manufacturer and distributor of these proprietary components . Using a different manufacturer’s product would require replacement of the entire existing KnoxBox infrastructure, which would significantly increase costs and disrupt operational consistency . Therefore, we are requesting the Board to approve Sole Source Standardization for the Knox eKey System, manufactured and distributed exclusively by The Knox Company . This request is in accordance with the Union County Procurement Policy, Section 3.8, Item (ii), a needed product is available from only one source of supply.

WIC serves to safeguard the health of low-to-moderate income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age five (5) who are at nutritional risk. The WIC program provides nutritious foods to supplement diets, referrals to health care, and education on healthy eating from specially trained WIC nutritionists. Union County signs an Agreement Addendum (AA) with the State of NC to provide WIC services. The AA assigns all WIC agencies an expected average monthly participation rate (base caseload) and allocates associated funding for services provided . Any WIC agency with an average monthly participation above 100% of the base caseload assignment can periodically receive funding increases, dependent on the availability of State and Federal funds . Union County surpassed the 100% base caseload assignment, therefore WIC received $24,248 in additional funding. This funding will enhance the County’s ability to achieve WIC’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program objective to provide supplemental nutritious foods, nutrition education, and referrals to health care for low-income persons during critical periods of growth and development . FINANCIAL IMPACT: Additional funding of $24,248 is awarded at 100% with no required County match.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: New proposed national opioid settlements have been reached with Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family, and with several secondary opioid manufacturers and their subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and directors. North Carolina is participating in these settlements . The settlement Participation Package attached to this agenda item must be submitted on or before September 30, 2025, in order for the County to be considered for initial participation calculations and payment eligibility . Based upon subdivision participation forms received on or before September 30, 2025, the subdivision participation rate will be used to determine whether participation is sufficient for the settlement to move forward and whether a state earns its maximum potential payment under the settlement. If the settlement moves forward, release of funds to the County will become effective. If a settlement does not move forward, that release will not become effective . Nonparticipation may also reduce the amount of money for programs to remediate the opioid crisis in its state . Decisions on how settlement funds will be allocated within a state are subject to the North Carolina Third Supplemental Agreement for Additional Funds from Additional Settlements of Opioid Litigation (SAAF-3), a supplement to the North Carolina Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on the allocation, use, and reporting of funds from the prior opioid settlements .

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: The 5307 Urbanized Area Formula Funding program makes federal resources available to urbanized areas for transit capital and operating assistance in urbanized areas and for transportation-related planning. Eligible 5307 activities include planning, engineering, design, and evaluation of transit projects and other technical transportation-related studies; capital investments in bus and bus-related activities such as replacement, overhaul, and rebuilding of buses, crime prevention and security equipment and construction of maintenance and passenger facilities; and capital investments in new and existing fixed guideway systems including rolling stock, overhaul and rebuilding of vehicles, track, signals, communications, and computer hardware and software. All preventive maintenance and some Americans with Disabilities Act complementary paratransit service costs are considered capital costs. Operating assistance is only an eligible expense for urbanized areas with populations less than 200,000. 5307 funds allocated to the Charlotte urbanized area are distributed using a formula that considers population, bus fleet, and transit service provided in its urbanized area outside of Charlotte, which includes the remainder of Mecklenburg County, Iredell County, York County, and Union County. Based on the current distribution formula created by the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) and approved by the Charlotte Regional Transit Planning Organization (CRTPO), Union County will receive up to: ·$2,041,740 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY23. ·$2,353,090 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY24. ·$2,402,267 in Federal 5307 funds from FFY25. Union County, NC Printed on 8/19/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™25 File #:25-535 Agenda Date:9/2/2025 This funding will be used for both operating expenses, which require a 50% local match, and capital expenses, which require a 20% local match. The 5307 Grant will result in an award of Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2023, (FFY) 2024, and (FFY) 2025 Federal Transportation Administration (FTA) funds to Union County. Funds awarded during a given fiscal year are initially allocated for a one-year period of performance, but this may be extended if necessary to enable them to be drawn down over a five-year period after the start of the federal fiscal year of the award. Thus, funds awarded for the: ·FFY23 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2028. ·FFY24 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2029. ·FFY25 5307 applications can be drawn down through June 30, 2030. In Union County, 5307 operational-related services are currently provided using demand response, subscription, and contracted fixed-route service. These services are rendered by Union County Transportation, or its subcontractors, and CATS. Union County’s Transportation and Planning staff have developed a list of activities for these funds, which include paying 50 percent of the cost of the existing Union County 74X Express bus service and provision of demand-response service in the urbanized portions of the County. The funding allocated for capital-related items will be utilized for the purchase of security-related items as required by the 1% security minimum requirement, safety- related items as required by the 0.75% safety minimum, and for facility renovations FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: The annual Combined Capital program grant is intended to provide financial assistance for the support of public transportation services, which are open to the general public on a regular and continuing basis. Combined Capital funding will provide reimbursement for replacement vehicles that have met NCDOT's useful life of 100,000 miles for conversion and lift vans, minivans, and Light Transit Vehicles. Additionally, it will reimburse other capital needs, such as lettering of vehicles (NCDOT required), radio equipment, etc. The Combined Capital application utilizes funds from the 5311, 5307, 5339 federal programs, which allows Community Transportation (CT) systems, like Union County Transportation, the opportunity to apply for funding for capital projects on a single application, and provides NCDOT Integrated Mobility Division (IMD) the flexibility to fund the approved projects with the type of funds which best suit the projects and manage the funds in the most efficient and effective manner. The Combined Capital application will be reviewed by our NCDOT Mobility Specialist, who will then provide a recommendation to the NC Board of Transportation, which is responsible for determining the final award amounts. The federal share for eligible capital costs may not exceed 80% of the project's net cost. The State and local share of eligible capital costs is 10 percent each; however, State funding is subject to State appropriations and availability of funds. Historically, State funds have been made available, but starting in FY2021, NCDOT has directed local governments to be prepared to cover the full 20 percent share, with the assumption that State funds may not be available. The County's Combined Capital funding request for FY2027 will cover the replacement of three (3) 22’ LTV vehicles with wheelchair lifts for a total request of $427,701, which includes 80 % Federal funding ($342,160) and County funds of a maximum 20% ($85,541). If State funding is awarded at the expected 10% ($42,770), then the local share would be reduced to 10% ($42,771).

Vehicles funded by this grant and authorized in the FY2027 budget will be purchased utilizing a North Carolina State contract. If vehicles cannot be purchased utilizing a North Carolina state contract, they will be purchased pursuant to applicable law and policy. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: June 17, 2019, Regular Meeting, Agenda Item #30 - Approved Amendment #1 to the Interlocal Agreement. BACKGROUND: Union County and the City of Monroe entered into an agreement in 2005 for the provision of water supply and wastewater treatment services between the parties. Per the agreement, each party is responsible for its proportional share of capital improvements at the respective facilities. In 2019, the interlocal agreement was updated. The 2019 amendment updated Exhibits 3, 4 & 5 to reflect the City's anticipated improvements at its WWTP facility with an estimated cost of $5,305,370 and the County's improvements at the Catawba River Water Treatment Plant (CRWTP) with an estimated cost of $68,541,270. The County's proportional share of Monroe's WWTP improvements is approximately $1,351,808, while the City's proportional share of the County's improvements at the CRWTP is approximately $3,790,332. Exhibit 6 was also updated to reflect a previous amount owed to the County by the City of Monroe for the relocation of a 42" water main along SC 5. The City had already paid their proportional share. This amendment also reflected changes in interconnects between the Monroe and Union County Water distribution systems. The current amendment (called Amendment to Amendment 1) will update Exhibits 3 to reflect the City's improvements at its WWTP facility with a cost of $6,257,518.65. The County's proportional share of Monroe's WWTP improvements is $1,594,465.81. UC Water was given an estimate in 2022 by the City of Monroe for $1,500,000 for these improvements and budgeted and encumbered this amount in FY2023. UC Water has received the final invoice for this project of $1,594,465.81 less the 2024 billing true-up of $37,811.95 equaling a payment needed to the City of Monroe for $1,556,653.86. In order to process this payment, the Exhibit 3 must be updated to include the project and cost information. The City of Monroe’s Council approved this “Amendment to Amendment 1 of the Water and Wastewater” agreement at their August 12th meeting. The attached document has been executed by the City Manager.

The process generally requires the Board of Commissioners to pass a resolution authorizing the NCDOT to carry out this process. The process is somewhat burdensome in that staff is required to review the request from NCDOT, prepare individual resolutions, place the resolutions on the Board’s agenda and make sure that the adopted resolutions are forwarded back to NCDOT. This blanket resolution will allow NCDOT to investigate maintenance requests and add roads to the system without the Board having to adopt individual resolutions. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None Union County, NC Printed on 8/19/2025Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™52 STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA COUNTY OF UNION RESOLUTION NORTH CAROLINA STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION REQUEST FOR ADDITION TO STATE MAINTAINED SECONDARY ROAD SYSTEM WHEREAS, petitions are being filed with the Board of County Commissioners of the County of Union for additions of roads to the North Carolina Department of Transportation's State Maintained Secondary Road System; and WHEREAS, the Union County Board of Commissioners is of the opinion that the County of Union does not investigate these petitioned roads for addition; and WHEREAS, the Union County Board of Commissioners relies on the North Carolina State Department of Transportation to investigate these petitioned roads and to determine if the roads meet the established standards and criteria for addition to the State Maintained Road System. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Union County Board of Commissioners that the Division of Highways is hereby requested to process all road additions without the further approval of the Union County Board of Commissioners.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: 1) July 17, 2023, Regular Meeting, Agenda Item #23-445 - Board Approved 2) July 15, 2024, Regular Meeting, Agenda Item #24-474 - Board Approved BACKGROUND: At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Library issues a purchase order to its primary materials vendor, Ingram Library Services. The Library then orders materials against this purchase order throughout the year. The Library’s discounts have been negotiated by MaLia, a library consortium of which Union County is a member. The approval of this purchase will enable the Library to commence its book purchasing for the year so that there is no significant lapse in new materials for the public. N.C.G.S 143-129(e)(3) and N.C.G.S 143-129(e)(9) allow local governments to make purchases through a competitively bid North Carolina Statewide Term Contract or a Group Purchasing Program. The purchase of the library materials will be made using Group Purchasing Program MaLia contract #LVA-MAT-22-007 as quoted by Ingram Library Services. The Procurement Department has vetted this contract and purchase amount. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The anticipated cost for the library materials is $309,000.00 and is budgeted accordingly for FY2026.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: The Union County Fire Marshal’s Office currently utilizes KnoxBox 3200 units as the standardized rapid entry system across the County for emergency access. As part of a department-wide modernization effort, the Fire Marshal’s Office is transitioning from mechanical key cylinders to the electronic Knox eKey system, which provides secure access, audit trail capabilities, and integration with KnoxConnect® management software. The Knox eKey cylinders are required for this upgrade and are only available from The Knox Company, which is the sole source manufacturer and distributor of these proprietary components. Using a different manufacturer’s product would require replacement of the entire existing KnoxBox infrastructure, which would significantly increase costs and disrupt operational consistency. Therefore, we are requesting the Board to approve Sole Source Standardization for the Knox eKey System, manufactured and distributed exclusively by The Knox Company. This request is in accordance with the Union County Procurement Policy, Section 3.8, Item (ii), a needed product is available from only one source of supply. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funding is available within the adopted FY26 Fire Marshal’s Budget to support the purchase amount of $133,298.68.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None BACKGROUND: The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) is part of the Human Services Agency’s Community Support and Outreach Department. WIC serves to safeguard the health of low-to-moderate income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, infants, and children up to age five (5) who are at nutritional risk. The WIC program provides nutritious foods to supplement diets, referrals to health care, and education on healthy eating from specially trained WIC nutritionists. Union County signs an Agreement Addendum (AA) with the State of NC to provide WIC services. The AA assigns all WIC agencies an expected average monthly participation rate (base caseload) and allocates associated funding for services provided. Any WIC agency with an average monthly participation above 100% of the base caseload assignment can periodically receive funding increases, dependent on the availability of State and Federal funds. Union County surpassed the 100% base caseload assignment, therefore WIC received $24,248 in additional funding. This funding will enhance the County’s ability to achieve WIC’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program objective to provide supplemental nutritious foods, nutrition education, and referrals to health care for low-income persons during critical periods of growth and development. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Additional funding of $24,248 is awarded at 100% with no required County match.

Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page i INTRODUCTION These Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts ("Instructions to Bidders" or “Instructions”) have been prepared for use with the Suggested Bid Form for Construction Contracts (“Bid Form”) (EJCDC® C-410, 2013 Edition); the Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (“Agreement”) (EJCDC® C-520, Stipulated Sum, or C-525, Cost-Plus, 2013 Editions); and the Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract (“General Conditions”) (EJCDC® C-700, 2013 Edition). Their provisions are interrelated, and a change in one may necessitate a change in the others. See also the Guide to the Preparation of Supplementary Conditions (EJCDC® C-800, 2013 Edition) and the Commentary on the 2013 EJCDC Construction Documents (EJCDC® C-001, 2013 Edition). These Instructions assume a competitive bidding process and the use of a Project Manual that contains the following documentary information for a construction project: • Bidding Requirements, which include the Advertisement or invitation to bid, the Instructions to Bidders, the Bid Form that is suggested or prescribed, all of which provide information and guidance for all Bidders, and Bid Form supplements (if any) such as Bid Bond Form and Qualifications Statement; and, • Contract Documents, which include the Agreement, performance and payment bonds, the General Conditions, the Supplementary Conditions, the Drawings, and the Specifications. (Note also that the Supplementary Conditions and other Contract Documents may refer to other documents that are provided to or made available to Bidders for reference purposes, but which are not Contract Documents.) Together, the Bidding Requirements and the Contract Documents are referred to as the Bidding Documents. (The terms “Bidding Documents,” “Bidding Requirements,” and "Contract Documents" are defined in Article 1 of the General Conditions.) The Bidding Requirements are not Contract Documents because much of their substance pertains to the relationships prior to the award of the Contract, and has little effect or impact thereafter. Many contracts are awarded without even going through a bidding process, and thus have no Bidding Requirements, illustrating that the bidding items are typically superfluous to the formation of a binding and comprehensive construction contract. In some cases, however, a bid or proposal will contain numerous line items and their prices; in such case the actual bid or proposal document may be attached as an exhibit to the Agreement to avoid extensive rekeying. The Instructions are accompanied by “Notes to User” and bracketed notes and prompts to assist in preparing the Instructions prior to distribution to prospective Bidders. The provisions have been coordinated with the other forms produced by EJCDC. Much of the language should be usable on most projects, but modifications and additional provisions often will be necessary. When modifying the suggested language or writing additional provisions, the user must check the other documents thoroughly for conflicts and coordination of terms, and make appropriate revisions in all affected documents. All parties involved in a construction project benefit significantly from a standardized approach in the location of subject matter throughout the documents. Experience confirms the danger of addressing the same subject matter in more than one location; doing so frequently leads to confusion and unanticipated legal consequences. When preparing documents for a construction project, careful attention should be given to the guidance provided in EJCDC® N-122/AIA® A521, Uniform Location of Subject Matter (2012 Edition), available at no charge from the EJCDC website, www.ejcdc.org, and from the websites of EJCDC’s sponsoring organizations. If CSI’s MasterFormat™ is being used for the Project Manual, consult MasterFormat™ for the appropriate document number and number the pages accordingly. 91 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts.

Page 1 ARTICLE 1 – DEFINED TERMS 1.01 Terms used in these Instructions to Bidders have the meanings indicated in the General Conditions and Supplementary Conditions. Additional terms used in these Instructions to Bidders have the meanings indicated below: A. Issuing Office – The office from which the Bidding Documents are to be issued. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. In addition to terms specifically defined, terms with initial capital letters in the Bidding Requirements include references to identified articles and paragraphs, and the titles of other documents or forms. 2. Additional defined terms applicable to the Bidding Requirements should be included here and should be used uniformly throughout the Bidding Requirements with initial capitals. Additional defined terms applicable to the Contract Documents should be included in the Supplementary Conditions. Note the difference in the meanings of the terms “Bidding Requirements” and “Bidding Documents,” as defined in the General Conditions, Paragraph 1.01.A. 3. It is strongly recommended that the Issuing Office be identified in the invitation to bid or advertisement. See EJCDC® C-111, Suggested Advertisement for Bids for Construction Contracts. If not, it should be identified in these Instructions. ARTICLE 2 – COPIES OF BIDDING DOCUMENTS 2.01 Complete sets of the Bidding Documents may be obtained from the Issuing Office in the number and format stated in the advertisement or invitation to bid. 2.02 Complete sets of Bidding Documents shall be used in preparing Bids; neither Owner nor Engineer assumes any responsibility for errors or misinterpretations resulting from the use of incomplete sets of Bidding Documents. 2.03 Owner and Engineer, in making copies of Bidding Documents available on the above terms, do so only for the purpose of obtaining Bids for the Work and do not authorize or confer a license for any other use. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Practices vary in the manner of issuing Bidding Documents, recording the names of document holders, and requiring deposits, charges, and refunding of deposits. 2. Many owners levy a non-refundable charge for a hard copy of the Bidding Documents, rather than using a deposit and refund system. If the Issuing Office charges a deposit, then advise potential Bidders, either in the advertisement or invitation to bid, or when the copy is requested, of the terms under which the deposit will be returned (for example that the deposit will be refunded to each document holder of record that returns a complete set of Bidding Documents in good condition within 30 days after opening of Bids). 94 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 2 3. Some Owners will provide a digital version of the Bidding Documents to potential bidders, or allow the Bidding Documents to be posted and accessed in plan rooms; or in some cases will make the Bidding Documents available only electronically. If Bidding Documents are provided electronically, it is typical to use a secure PDF or similar format, with caveats regarding discrepancies between the electronic copy and hard copy. In certain cases the bidding process and the project may benefit from making some of the Bidding Documents available in accessible electronic format that allows bidders to make detailed quantity measurements and take-offs; if this is done, the Owner and Engineer must make decisions about risk allocations with respect to the accessible documents, and include appropriate terms, conditions, and disclaimers in these Instructions. Refer to General Conditions, Articles 2 and 3. 4. The duties of Engineer during the Bidding Phase should coincide with those assigned to Engineer in the professional services contract between Owner and Engineer (see Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services, EJCDC® E-500, Exhibit A). ARTICLE 3 – QUALIFICATIONS OF BIDDERS 3.01 To demonstrate Bidder’s qualifications to perform the Work, Bidder shall submit with its Bid (a) written evidence establishing its qualifications such as financial data, previous experience, and present commitments, and (b) the following additional information: A. Evidence of Bidder’s authority to do business in the state where the Project is located. B. Bidder’s state or other contractor license number, if applicable. C. Subcontractor and Supplier qualification information; coordinate with provisions of Article 12 of these Instructions, “Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others.” D. [Other required information regarding qualifications] Specific qualification requirements to be submitted with the Bid are stated in Article 7 of the Bid Form. The Owner reserves the right to request additional documentation of qualifications following the bid opening. The Bidder shall submit said additional qualifications within five (5) days of the Owner’s request. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Use one of the three alternative Paragraphs 3.01. 2. As drafted, the first alternative 3.01 assumes that Owner’s request for qualifying information will be made after the Bids have been received and opened. The time allowed for Bidder to submit Owner-requested qualifications data varies. Five to 10 days is typical. It is recommended that the qualifications be requested from the three lowest Bidders, but in some cases—for example, an exceptionally tight bid spread, or low bids that seem unrealistic—Owner may wish to request the information from all Bidders. 3. If Owner will prequalify Bidders, such that only prequalified Bidders may submit Bids, then use the second alternative 3.01. The procedures and intricacies involved in the prequalification of Bidders require careful consideration before appropriate language is drafted. Also, many 95 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 3 governmental bodies have specific requirements with respect to the prequalification of Bidders. The second alternative 3.01 is meant to provide a starting point for prequalification; some additional drafting likely will be needed. 4. If Owner prefers to obtain qualifying information from all Bidders at the time Bids are submitted, then use the third alternative 3.01. 5. Requirements for Bidders to obtain either authorized business status or state contractor licensing or both prior to submitting a Bid may preclude some entities, such as out-of-state corporations, from bidding due to the time required to obtain such status or license. Some Owners modify the requirement to require only that Bidder submit evidence of its ability to obtain required authority or licenses within the time for acceptance of Bids. In all cases the bidding requirements must be consistent with state Laws or Regulations regarding business status and licensing. 6. Request submittal of contractor licensing information when the state in which the Project is located requires contractor licensing for the type of Project to be constructed. 7. It is desirable to itemize the data that all Bidders will be required to submit in order to demonstrate their qualifications for an award. Also, standards or criteria that will be applied in Bidder evaluation should be stated. These data should appear in this Article 3 in their entirety and may include specific language required by Laws or Regulations. 8. It is a good practice for Owner and Engineer to discuss the Bidder qualifications appropriate to each Project. If a Bidder’s qualification form is to be completed and submitted by Bidders, it should be provided with the Bidding Documents. Governmental bodies frequently have prescribed qualification forms. EJCDC recommends EJCDC® C-451, Qualifications Statement. This form is suitable for submission by Bidders before, with, or after the Bid. 9. If there is a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise [DBE] requirement for the Contract, so indicate here. The DBE requirements are typically contract terms and should be stated in the Contract Documents. If reference is made here in the Instructions to Bidders to the required level of DBE participation, the criteria to be used, or other specific DBE requirements, such references must be fully consistent with the actual contract clauses. 3.02 A Bidder’s failure to submit required qualification information within the times indicated may disqualify Bidder from receiving an award of the Contract. 3.03 No requirement in this Article 3 to submit information will prejudice the right of Owner to seek additional pertinent information regarding Bidder’s qualifications. 3.04 Bidder is advised to carefully review those portions of the Bid Form requiring Bidder’s representations and certifications. NOTE(S) TO USER: Bidders are usually asked to make certain representations as to genuineness of their Bids, the lack of collusion in connection therewith, and other related matters (see Bid Form, Articles 3 and 4). 96 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts.

Page 4 ARTICLE 4 – SITE AND OTHER AREAS; EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS; EXAMINATION OF SITE; OWNER’S SAFETY PROGRAM; OTHER WORK AT THE SITE 4.01 Site and Other Areas A. The Site is identified in the Bidding Documents. By definition, the Site includes rights-of-way, easements, and other lands furnished by Owner for the use of the Contractor. Any additional lands required for temporary construction facilities, construction equipment, or storage of materials and equipment, and any access needed for such additional lands, are to be obtained and paid for by Contractor. NOTE(S) TO USER: Any conditions set forth in easements obtained by Owner, including their availability to Contractor when Notice to Proceed is given, which may affect cost or performance of the Work, should be disclosed to Bidder. If the information is available at the time Bidding Documents are prepared, it should be added to Paragraph 4.01, and the exact language and anticipated availability of the easement or right-of-way should be included in the Contract Documents (usually the Supplementary Conditions). If important information is not yet available, appropriate statements should be made concerning assumptions to be made by Bidder and upon which Bidder may rely. 4.02 Existing Site Conditions A. Subsurface and Physical Conditions; Hazardous Environmental Conditions 1. The Supplementary Conditions identify: a. those reports known to Owner of explorations and tests of subsurface conditions at or adjacent to the Site. b. those drawings known to Owner of physical conditions relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at the Site (except Underground Facilities). c. reports and drawings known to Owner relating to Hazardous Environmental Conditions that have been identified at or adjacent to the Site. d. Technical Data contained in such reports and drawings. 2. Owner will make copies of reports and drawings referenced above available to any Bidder on request. These reports and drawings are not part of the Contract Documents, but the Technical Data contained therein upon whose accuracy Bidder is entitled to rely, as provided in the General Conditions, has been identified and established in the Supplementary Conditions. Bidder is responsible for any interpretation or conclusion Bidder draws from any Technical Data or any other data, interpretations, opinions, or information contained in such reports or shown or indicated in such drawings. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Any cost to Bidders for obtaining copies of reports and drawings in Paragraph 4.02.A should be addressed here. 2. Note that the reports and drawings referenced in Paragraph 4.02 above are not Contract Documents. EJCDC recommends that they not be bound with or attached as an Appendix or otherwise to the Contract Documents in any 97 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 5 manner that they might give the appearance of being part of the Contract Documents. 3. If Owner decides that it does not wish to identify any subsurface data in the reports and drawings furnished as Technical Data entitled to reliance by Bidders, and does not want the default definition of Technical Data to apply— a decision that would be contrary to EJCDC’s recommended practices—then the Supplementary Conditions and these Instructions should affirmatively state that there is no data on which Bidders may rely, and Owner should revise the General Conditions’ definition of Technical Data to avoid its default operation. 4. If the Contract Documents include use of a Geotechnical Baseline Report, it should be furnished to the Bidder as a proposed Contract Document and included in the Project Manual. Revise Paragraph 4.02 above to include the following Paragraph 4.02.A.4: 3. Geotechnical Baseline Report: The Bidding Documents contain a Geotechnical Baseline Report (GBR). The GBR describes certain select subsurface conditions that are anticipated to be encountered by Contractor during construction in specified locations (“Baseline Conditions”). The GBR is a Contract Document. The Baseline Conditions in the GBR are intended to reduce uncertainty and the degree of contingency in submitted Bids. However, Bidders cannot rely solely on the Baseline Conditions. Bids should be based on a comprehensive approach that includes an independent review and analysis of the GBR, all other Contract Documents, Technical Data, other available information, and observable surface conditions. Not all potential subsurface conditions are baselined. Nothing in the GBR is intended to relieve Bidders of the responsibility to make their own determinations regarding construction costs, bidding strategies, and Bid prices, nor of the responsibility to select and be responsible for the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction, and for safety precautions and programs incident thereto. B. Underground Facilities: Information and data shown or indicated in the Bidding Documents with respect to existing Underground Facilities at or contiguous to the Site are set forth in the Contract Documents and are based upon information and data furnished to Owner and Engineer by owners of such Underground Facilities, including Owner, or others. C. Adequacy of Data: Provisions concerning responsibilities for the adequacy of data furnished to prospective Bidders with respect to subsurface conditions, other physical conditions, and Underground Facilities, and possible changes in the Bidding Documents due to differing or unanticipated subsurface or physical conditions appear in Paragraphs 4.02, 4.03, and 4.04 of the General Conditions. Provisions concerning responsibilities for the adequacy of data furnished to prospective Bidders with respect to a Hazardous Environmental Condition at the Site, if any, and possible changes in the Contract Documents due to any Hazardous Environmental Condition uncovered or revealed at the Site which was not shown or indicated in the Drawings or Specifications or identified in the Contract Documents to be within the scope of the Work, appear in Paragraph 4.06 of the General Conditions. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The Technical Data upon which Bidder may rely should be identified in the Supplementary Conditions (see discussion in the Note following Paragraph 98 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 6 4.02 above, with respect to subsurface conditions, and in the Commentary, EJCDC® C-001). 2. In the event there are no data of the types referred to, it may be appropriate to revise the paragraphs above, and expressly state that there are no such data. 4.03 Site Visit and Testing by Bidders A. Bidder shall conduct the required Site visit during normal working hours, and shall not disturb any ongoing operations at the Site. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. If Site visits are to be conducted by appointment only, so indicate, and provide instructions for arranging the visit. 2. Any limitations on the time, area, or other terms and conditions of access for the Site visit should be stated. B. Bidder is not required to conduct any subsurface testing, or exhaustive investigations of Site conditions. NOTE(S) TO USER: Ordinarily Owner should not require Bidders to conduct detailed Site and subsurface testing and investigation because of the constraints of time and other practical considerations. However, under some circumstances it may be necessary for Owner to require such testing and investigation. If Owner chooses to require the Bidders to conduct testing or detailed investigations, the sentence above should be deleted and the specific testing or examination requirements inserted. Any such requirements for pre-Bid Site testing or examination should be realistic and clearly stated. Reasonable time must be allowed in the bidding period to permit Bidders to carry out these efforts. Owner must make the Site available, and Owner should establish terms and conditions governing the investigations and tests, addressing such issues as Bidder’s liability insurance, locating and protecting existing utilities, Site restoration, and compliance with safety programs pertaining to the Site. C. On request, and to the extent Owner has control over the Site, and schedule permitting, the Owner will provide Bidder access to the Site to conduct such additional examinations, investigations, explorations, tests, and studies as Bidder deems necessary for preparing and submitting a successful Bid. Owner will not have any obligation to grant such access if doing so is not practical because of existing operations, security or safety concerns, or restraints on Owner’s authority regarding the Site. D. Bidder shall comply with all applicable Laws and Regulations regarding excavation and location of utilities, obtain all permits, and comply with all terms and conditions established by Owner or by property owners or other entities controlling the Site with respect to schedule, access, existing operations, security, liability insurance, and applicable safety programs. E. Bidder shall fill all holes and clean up and restore the Site to its former condition upon completion of such explorations, investigations, tests, and studies. 99 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 7 4.04 Owner’s Safety Program A. Site visits and work at the Site may be governed by an Owner safety program. As the General Conditions indicate, if an Owner safety program exists, it will be noted in the Supplementary Conditions. 4.05 Other Work at the Site A. Reference is made to Article 7 of the Supplementary Conditions for the identification of the general nature of other work of which Owner is aware (if any) that is to be performed at the Site by Owner or others (such as utilities and other prime contractors) and relates to the Work contemplated by these Bidding Documents. If Owner is party to a written contract for such other work, then on request, Owner will provide to each Bidder access to examine such contracts (other than portions thereof related to price and other confidential matters), if any. NOTE(S) TO USER: Article 7 of the General Conditions indicates that if such other work is to be performed, it will be noted in the Supplementary Conditions. ARTICLE 5 – BIDDER’S REPRESENTATIONS 5.01 It is the responsibility of each Bidder before submitting a Bid to: A. examine and carefully study the Bidding Documents, and any data and reference items identified in the Bidding Documents; B. visit the Site, conduct a thorough, alert visual examination of the Site and adjacent areas, and become familiar with and satisfy itself as to the general, local, and Site conditions that may affect cost, progress, and performance of the Work; NOTE(S) TO USER: Bidder is expected to visit the Site and conduct an alert, heads-up, eyes-open, reasonable examination of the area and the conditions under which the Work is to be performed, and that is the intent of Paragraph 5.01.B. Any special requirements for such examination are to be set forth in writing (Paragraph 4.03 is the preferable location for such requirements). C. become familiar with and satisfy itself as to all Laws and Regulations that may affect cost, progress, and performance of the Work; D. carefully study all: (1) reports of explorations and tests of subsurface conditions at or adjacent to the Site and all drawings of physical conditions relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at the Site that have been identified in the Supplementary Conditions, especially with respect to Technical Data in such reports and drawings, and (2) reports and drawings relating to Hazardous Environmental Conditions, if any, at or adjacent to the Site that have been identified in the Supplementary Conditions, especially with respect to Technical Data in such reports and drawings; NOTE(S) TO USER: If there are no reports or drawings of the type referred to in this representation, either modify or delete the paragraph, and expressly state that there are none. E. consider the information known to Bidder itself; information commonly known to contractors doing business in the locality of the Site; information and observations obtained 100 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 8 from visits to the Site; the Bidding Documents; and the Site-related reports and drawings identified in the Bidding Documents, with respect to the effect of such information, observations, and documents on (1) the cost, progress, and performance of the Work; (2) the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction to be employed by Bidder; and (3) Bidder’s safety precautions and programs; NOTE(S) TO USER: If the Bidding Documents do not identify any Site-related reports and drawings, modify this paragraph accordingly. F. agree, based on the information and observations referred to in the preceding paragraph, that at the time of submitting its Bid no further examinations, investigations, explorations, tests, studies, or data are necessary for the determination of its Bid for performance of the Work at the price bid and within the times required, and in accordance with the other terms and conditions of the Bidding Documents; G. become aware of the general nature of the work to be performed by Owner and others at the Site that relates to the Work as indicated in the Bidding Documents; H. promptly give Engineer written notice of all conflicts, errors, ambiguities, or discrepancies that Bidder discovers in the Bidding Documents and confirm that the written resolution thereof by Engineer is acceptable to Bidder; I. determine that the Bidding Documents are generally sufficient to indicate and convey understanding of all terms and conditions for the performance and furnishing of the Work; and J. agree that the submission of a Bid will constitute an incontrovertible representation by Bidder that Bidder has complied with every requirement of this Article, that without exception the Bid and all prices in the Bid are premised upon performing and furnishing the Work required by the Bidding Documents. NOTE(S) TO USER: The representations by Bidder in EJCDC’s Bid Form (EJCDC® C-410) and in both of its Owner-Contractor Agreements (EJCDC® C-520, Stipulated Sum, and EJCDC® C- 525, Cost-Plus) are closely coordinated with the wording in this Article so that a change in one would necessitate changes in the others. ARTICLE 6 – PRE-BID CONFERENCE 6.01 A pre-Bid conference will be held at the time and location stated in the invitation or advertisement to bid. Representatives of Owner and Engineer will be present to discuss the Project. Bidders are encouraged to attend and participate in the conference. Engineer will transmit to all prospective Bidders of record such Addenda as Engineer considers necessary in response to questions arising at the conference. Oral statements may not be relied upon and will not be binding or legally effective. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. EJCDC recommends that Engineer record the prospective Bidders in attendance at the beginning and at the end of the pre-bid conference, and keep a record of the proceedings. If regulatory authorities having jurisdiction are also present, their attendance should be noted. 101 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 9 2. It is most common for attendance at the pre-bid conference to be encouraged but not required, though practices vary by jurisdiction. Mandatory pre-Bid conferences are not allowed in some jurisdictions. If Owner makes it mandatory that Bidders attend the pre-bid conference, this should be made clear in the instruction above and in the advertisement or invitation to bid, and the instruction should state the consequences of failure to attend. ARTICLE 7 – INTERPRETATIONS AND ADDENDA 7.01 All questions about the meaning or intent of the Bidding Documents are to be submitted to Engineer in writing. Interpretations or clarifications considered necessary by Engineer in response to such questions will be issued by Addenda delivered to all parties recorded as having received the Bidding Documents. Questions received less than one hundred twenty (120) hours (five calendar days) prior to the date for opening of Bids may not be answered. Only questions answered by Addenda will be binding. All such changes or interpretations will be made in writing in the form of Addenda, and, if issued, will be mailed or sent by available means to all known prospective bidders not later than seventy two (72) hours prior to the established bid opening date time. Oral and other interpretations or clarifications will be without legal effect. 7.02 Addenda may be issued to clarify, correct, supplement, or change the Bidding Documents. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The time in which Bidders’ questions must be submitted to receive consideration, set by EJCDC as seven days prior to the opening of bids, may be governed by Laws or Regulations, and should be modified in Paragraph 7.01 if necessary. 2. Addenda are not to be issued after Bid opening. If the administration of the bidding procedures is not conducted by Engineer (for example, if questions are to be submitted to Owner or to a construction manager), it may be appropriate to amend Article 7. ARTICLE 8 – BID SECURITY 8.01 A Bid must be accompanied by Bid security made payable to Owner in an amount of [_____] percent of Bidder’s maximum Bid price (determined by adding the base bid and all alternates) and in the form of a certified check, bank money order, or a Bid bond (on the form included in the Bidding Documents) issued by a surety meeting the requirements of Paragraphs 5.01 and 5.02 of the General Conditions. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Reference should be made to statutory requirements and applicable governmental regulations with respect to Bid security required on public projects. It may be necessary to delete Article 8 in its entirety and replace it with specific language required by Laws and Regulations. In the event such language does not provide for the release of Bid security to Bidders who decline to substitute Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals or entities requested by Owner, as provided in Article 12 below, it may be necessary to make coordinated revisions. 102 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 10 2. Article 5 of the Bid Form should be carefully reviewed to ensure there will be no misunderstanding of the term “Bidder’s maximum Bid price.” 3. For recommended bid bond forms see EJCDC® C 430 (Penal Sum Form) and EJCDC® C 435 (Damages Form). 4. If a specific bid bond form, such as EJCDC® C-430 or EJCDC® C-435, is required, the form should be included in the Bidding Documents. 5. Bid security is not universally used or required. When used, it is typically in the range of 5-10 percent. 8.02 The Bid security of the apparent Successful Bidder will be retained until Owner awards the contract to such Bidder, and such Bidder has executed the Contract Documents, furnished the required contract security, and met the other conditions of the Notice of Award, whereupon the Bid security will be released. If the Successful Bidder fails to execute and deliver the Contract Documents and furnish the required contract security within ten (10) days after the Notice of Award, Owner may consider Bidder to be in default, annul the Notice of Award, and the Bid security of that Bidder will be forfeited. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The remedy provided Owner by Paragraph 8.02 for Bidder default presumes that a certified check, money order, or a Penal Sum Form Bid Bond, such as EJCDC® C-430, will be required. 2. If EJCDC’s Damages Form Bid Bond (EJCDC® C-435) or similar damages form is specified or permitted, the second sentence of Paragraph 8.02 should be revised to state that “…Owner may consider Bidder to be in default, annul the Notice of Award, and exercise its rights under the Bid Bond.” 8.03 The Bid security of other Bidders that Owner believes to have a reasonable chance of receiving the award may be retained by Owner until the earlier of seven days after the Effective Date of the Contract or one (1) day more than the period for which Bids are subject to acceptance, whereupon Bid security furnished by such Bidders will be released. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Retaining the Bid security of those other Bidders that may be in line for contract award in the event of default by the initial Successful Bidder is a standard practice that provides Owner with similar security if award to one of the other Bidders becomes necessary. 2. The “61 days” is based on the fact that, as provided in Paragraph 2.01 of the Bid Form, Bids will remain subject to acceptance “for 60 days after the Bid opening.” Therefore, on the sixty-first day the Bids are no longer effective. Also see the Commentary on the 2013 EJCDC Construction Series Documents, EJCDC® C-001, in the section discussing Article 4 of the General Conditions, regarding the suggested schedule of events between opening of Bids and starting of Contract Times. 8.04 Bid security of other Bidders that Owner believes do not have a reasonable chance of receiving the award will be released within seven days after the Bid opening. 103 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts.

Page 11 ARTICLE 9 – CONTRACT TIMES 9.01 The number of days within which, or the dates by which, [Milestones are to be achieved and] the Work is to be substantially completed and ready for final payment are set forth in the Agreement. NOTE(S) TO USER: Use one of the two alternative Paragraphs 9.01, and delete the other. The first (and most common) alternative anticipates that the times for Milestones, if any, Substantial Completion, and completion of the Work in readiness for final payment have been set forth in the Agreement that is included in the Bidding Documents. The second alternative may be used to permit Bidders to designate the time of Substantial Completion in the Bids, as a factor in determining the Successful Bidder. In most cases Bidders will not be asked to designate the time in which it commits to achieving Milestones or readiness for final payment, and hence the sentence in brackets above should in most cases be deleted. See note regarding price-plus-time (“A+B”) bidding following Paragraph 19.03 below. ARTICLE 10 – LIQUIDATED DAMAGES 10.01 Provisions for liquidated damages, if any, are set forth in the Agreement. NOTE(S) TO USER: Liquidated damages amounts and terms should be stated in Article 4 of the Agreement. ARTICLE 11 – SUBSTITUTE AND “OR-EQUAL” ITEMS NOTE(S) TO USER: The EJCDC presumptive practice is that no substitute or “or-equal” materials or equipment will be considered until after the Effective Date of the Contract. However, some practitioners do consider, and some Laws and Regulations require, evaluations of substitutions and “or-equals” during the bidding period and issuance of Addenda when a substitute or “or-equal” is accepted. In such cases, use the second alternative Paragraph 11.01, immediately below. 11.01 The Contract for the Work, as awarded, will be on the basis of materials and equipment specified or described in the Bidding Documents, and those “or-equal” or substitute or materials and equipment subsequently approved by Engineer prior to the submittal of Bids and identified by Addendum. No item of material or equipment will be considered by Engineer as an “or-equal” or substitute unless written request for approval has been submitted by Bidder and has been received by Engineer at least 15 days prior to the date for receipt of Bids. Each such request shall comply with the requirements of Paragraph 6.05 of the General Conditions. The burden of proof of the merit of the proposed item is upon Bidder. Engineer’s decision of approval or disapproval of a proposed item will be final. If Engineer approves any such proposed item, such approval will be set forth in an Addendum issued to all prospective Bidders. Bidders shall not rely upon approvals made in any other manner. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to comply with N.C.G.S. §133-3 and to encourage free and open competition on public contracts. However, nothing in this Subparagraph is intended to permit bidders to submit proposals for the use of products or materials which have not been 104 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 12 approved by Engineer prior to the receipt of bids as provided by N.C.G.S. §133-3. All submittals for substitution approval shall be made in accordance with the provisions of these Instructions to Bidders: .1 Wherever the Specifications list only required performance and design characteristics for a product or material, bidders wishing to provide such a product or material shall submit such for approval. .2 Where the Specifications list three or more names of products or materials, the listed examples are used only to denote the quality standard of product desired and do not restrict bidders to a specific brand, make, manufacturer or specific name. Rather, they are used only to set forth and convey to bidders the general style, type, character and quality of product desired. Products of similar general style, type, character appearance, and quality may be submitted for approval. .3 Where the Specifications list fewer than three names of product or material, such products are the only products known to Engineer that comply with the required style, type, character appearance, and quality necessary for this product. Bidders wishing to propose equivalent products may do so. 11.02 All prices that Bidder sets forth in its Bid shall be based on the presumption that the Contractor will furnish the materials and equipment specified or described in the Bidding Documents, as supplemented by Addenda. Any assumptions regarding the possibility of post-Bid approvals of “or-equal” or substitution requests are made at Bidder’s sole risk. ARTICLE 12 – SUBCONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS, AND OTHERS 12.01 In addition to any identification of Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities required to be submitted to Owner by the Supplementary Conditions (see third full paragraph below), Bidders shall include in their Bid a list of all subcontractors which the Bidder intends to use for each of the following categories of work: 1. Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (Mechanical); 2. Plumbing; 3. Electrical; 4. General. A contractor whose Bid is accepted shall not substitute any person as subcontractor in the place of the subcontractor listed in the original bid, except (i) if the listed subcontractor’s bid is later determined by the contractor to be nonresponsible or nonresponsive or the listed subcontractor refuses to enter into a contract for the complete performance of the bid work, or (ii) with the approval of the awarding authority for good cause shown by the contractor. The terms, conditions, and requirements of each contract between Contractor and a subcontractor performing work under a subdivision or branch of work listed in this subsection shall incorporate by reference the terms, conditions, and requirements of the Contract between Contractor and Owner. Failure to include this list of subcontractors may cause a Bid to be rejected as nonresponsive by Owner. If the Supplementary Conditions require the identity of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities to be submitted to Owner in advance of a specified date prior to the Effective Date of the Agreement, the apparent Successful Bidder, and any other Bidder so requested, shall within five days after Bid opening, submit to Owner a list of all such Subcontractors, Suppliers, 105 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 13 individuals, or entities proposed for those portions of the Work for which such identification is required. Such list shall be accompanied by an experience statement with pertinent information regarding similar projects and other evidence of qualification for each such Subcontractor, Supplier, individual, or entity if requested by Owner. If Owner or Engineer, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor, Supplier, individual, or entity, Owner may, before the Notice of Award is given, request apparent Successful Bidder to submit a substitute, without an increase in the Bid. 12.02 Subsequent to the submittal of the Bid, Owner may not require the Successful Bidder or Contractor to retain any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity against which Contractor has reasonable objection. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The matter of Owner retaining the right to disapprove of or reject certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities (including those who are to furnish the principal items of material and equipment) which apparent Successful Bidder proposes for the Work has not been approached uniformly nor with unanimous endorsement by various interested organizations. Prequalification of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities prior to the submission of Bids is one approach, but the effort, procedures, and intricacies involved require careful consideration, and prequalification may not be permitted on public works projects in some jurisdictions. Provisions dealing with this matter after the submittal of a Bid are contained in Paragraph 6.06 of the General Conditions. EJCDC believes that, as a general principle, Contractors should be entitled to retain Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities of their own choosing, that occasions when Owner and Engineer will wish to either require use of specific Subcontractors, Suppliers, or personnel, or to disapprove or reject proposed or retained Subcontractors, Suppliers, or personnel will arise infrequently, and that the right to reject should be exercised only with appropriate supporting data. It is recognized, however, that there will be situations in which, because of the peculiarities of a given project, it will be important for Owner and Engineer to have the right to reject certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities that are proposed for or have been retained for the Work. 2. Provisions dealing with the prequalification of Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities prior to the opening of Bids should be set forth in Article 12, as should provisions dealing with Owner’s right to disapprove between the time of the opening of Bids and the giving of the Notice of Award. Coordination of the language with Article 3 and Article 19 of these Instructions should not be overlooked. It is important to remember that Owner’s right to reject will apply only to those Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities whose identity is to be submitted to Owner as required by these Instructions; accordingly, unless a particular trade, manufacturer, etc., has been so singled out, the right to reject would not exist (except as generally provided in Paragraph 6.06 of the General Conditions). In the event Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities are not required to be identified, it may be appropriate to delete some or all of Article 12. 3. Requiring the apparent Successful Bidder to retain a substitute Subcontractor, Supplier, individual, or entity that is acceptable to Owner and Engineer may 106 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 14 have a serious effect on the Bid price first submitted, and there are various ways of dealing with the situation should it arise. EJCDC’s suggested approach is set forth in the last sentence of Paragraph 12.03. Most owners favor this approach as being more equitable to contractors and for its tendency to produce a lower initial Bid. Others may prefer an alternative approach that does not allow a price increase, because of legal constraints applicable to public works projects or because of the desire to hold firm the initial Bid even though this may result generally in higher Bids. This alternative may be accomplished by revising the last sentence of Paragraph 12.03 to state: “If Owner or Engineer, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor, Supplier, individual, or entity, Owner may, before the Notice of Award is given, request apparent Successful Bidder to submit an acceptable substitute, without an increase in Bid price.” In addition, under the alternative approach Owner and its advisors may conclude that it would be inequitable to claim a Bid security forfeiture, hence the second sentence of Paragraph 12.04 would be revised to state: “Declining to make requested substitutions will not constitute grounds for forfeiture of the Bid security of any Bidder.” There are other sound ways to address these problems. The entire matter should be reviewed by Owner and Owner’s legal counsel prior to finalizing these Instructions. 4. Any restrictions or limitations on subcontracting should appear in SC 7.06, and cross-references to that location should appear here in Article 12. 5. Reference should be made to applicable Laws and Regulations with respect to Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals or entities. Specific provisions may be required by Laws or Regulations, in which case Article 12 may require amending or deletion and replacement with the required language. Note also that Article 12 as written contemplates that Subcontractors and Suppliers required to be identified by apparent Successful Bidder prior to award of the Contract will be listed here in the Instructions. If these requirements instead will be established in the Supplementary Conditions, the Bid Form, or other location, such specific location should be noted here in Article 12. ARTICLE 13 – PREPARATION OF BID 13.01 The Bid Form is included with the Bidding Documents. A. All blanks on the Bid Form shall be completed in ink and the Bid Form signed in ink. Erasures or alterations shall be initialed in ink by the person signing the Bid Form. B. If the Bid Form expressly indicates that submitting pricing on a specific alternate item is optional, and Bidder elects to not furnish pricing for such optional alternate item, then Bidder may enter the words “No Bid” or “Not Applicable.” NOTE(S) TO USER: Coordinate these paragraphs carefully with the Bid Form and edit as required. 107 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 15 13.02 A Bid by a corporation shall be executed in the corporate name by a corporate officer (whose title must appear under the signature), accompanied by evidence of authority to sign. The corporate address and state of incorporation shall be shown. The corporate seal shall be affixed and attested by the corporate secretary or an assistant corporate secretary. NOTE(S) TO USER: A corporate seal may be required in some jurisdictions. If so, add appropriate wording. The following is an example: “The corporate seal shall be affixed and attested by the corporate secretary or an assistant corporate secretary.” A Bid by a partnership shall be executed in the partnership name and signed by a partner (whose title must appear under the signature), accompanied by evidence of authority to sign. The official address of the partnership shall be shown. 13.03 A Bid by a limited liability company shall be executed in the name of the firm by a member or other authorized person and accompanied by evidence of authority to sign. The state of formation of the firm and the official address of the firm shall be shown. 13.04 A Bid by an individual shall show the Bidder’s name and official address. 13.05 A Bid by a joint venture shall be executed by an authorized representative of each joint venturer in the manner indicated on the Bid Form. The official address of the joint venture shall be shown. 13.06 All names shall be printed in ink below the signatures. 13.07 The Bid shall contain an acknowledgment of receipt of all Addenda, the numbers of which shall be filled in on the Bid Form. 13.08 Postal and e-mail addresses and telephone number for communications regarding the Bid shall be shown. 13.09 The Bid shall contain evidence of Bidder’s authority and qualification to do business in the state where the Project is located, or Bidder shall covenant in writing to obtain such authority and qualification prior to award of the Contract and attach such covenant to the Bid. Bidder’s state contractor license number, if any, shall also be shown on the Bid Form. NOTE(S) TO USER: See Note to User 5, Paragraph 3.01. ARTICLE 14 – BASIS OF BID 14.01 Lump Sum A. Bidders shall submit a Bid on a lump sum basis as set forth in the Bid Form. [or] 14.01 Base Bid with Alternates A. Bidders shall submit a Bid on a lump sum basis for the base Bid and include a separate price for each alternate described in the Bidding Documents and as provided for in the Bid Form. The price for each alternate will be the amount added to or deleted from the base Bid if Owner selects the alternate. B. In the comparison of Bids, alternates will be applied in the same order of priority as listed in the Bid Form. 108 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 16 [or] 14.01 Sectional Bids A. Bidders may submit a Bid on any individual section or any combination of sections, as set forth in the Bid Form. B. Submission of a Bid on any section signifies Bidder’s willingness to enter into a Contract for that section alone at the price offered. C. If Bidder submits Bids on individual sections and a Bid based on a combination of those sections, such combined Bid need not be the sum of the Bids on the individual sections. D. Bidders offering a Bid on one or more sections shall be capable of completing the Work covered by those sections within the time period stated in the Agreement. [or] 14.01 Cost-Plus-Fee Bids A. Bidders shall submit a Bid on the Contractor’s fee, which shall be in addition to compensation for Cost of the Work. Such fee shall be either (1) a fixed fee or (2) percentages of categories of costs, as set forth in the Bid Form. B. If the Contractor’s fee, as set forth in the Bid Form, is to be based on percentages of categories of cost, Bidders shall enter a maximum amount limiting the total fee if required by the Bid Form to do so. C. Bidders shall submit a Bid on the Guaranteed Maximum Price, setting a maximum amount on the compensable Cost of the Work plus Contractor’s fee, if required by the Bid Form to do so. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Paragraph 14.01 gives four frequently used alternatives for defining the basis and determination of Bid prices. The user should select one and delete the others. For a particular project, a unique, customized set or combination of paragraphs may be necessary, following the concept shown above; for example, sectional bids together with alternates. The user should carefully review Paragraph 14.01 and compare to the final Bid Form for clarity and consistency. 2. The fourth alternative above addresses bidding on cost-plus-fee contracts. See EJCDC® C-525, Agreement Between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Cost-Plus). Such contracts are more frequently formed through a negotiation or proposal/selection process, but may in some cases be competitively bid. The Instruction above, the Bid comparison provisions of Paragraph 19.03 below, and Article 5 of the Bid Form all assume that the principal means of comparing cost-plus-fee bids will be the Guaranteed Maximum Price. An alternative to this would be to make a selection based on the Contractor’s fee, either because no Guaranteed Maximum Price is to be included as part of the specific contract or bidding process, or because in a particular case the Contractor’s fee is judged to be the more critical criterion for Contractor selection. The Instructions and Bid Form must be customized to accommodate a selection based on Contractor’s fee. 109 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts.

Also note the importance of including the following paragraph, 14.02, when unit prices are part of the Bid. It is common for bid forms to be structured to require lump sum prices for specified portions of the Work, and unit prices for other Work items. 14.02 Unit Price A. Bidders shall submit a Bid on a unit price basis for each item of Work listed in the unit price section of the Bid Form. B. The “Bid Price” (sometimes referred to as the extended price) for each unit price Bid item will be the product of the “Estimated Quantity” (which Owner or its representative has set forth in the Bid Form) for the item and the corresponding “Bid Unit Price” offered by the Bidder. The total of all unit price Bid items will be the sum of these “Bid Prices”; such total will be used by Owner for Bid comparison purposes. The final quantities and Contract Price will be determined in accordance with Paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions. C. Discrepancies between the multiplication of units of Work and unit prices will be resolved in favor of the unit prices. Discrepancies between the indicated sum of any column of figures and the correct sum thereof will be resolved in favor of the correct sum. NOTE(S) TO USER: Some lettings may be based exclusively on unit prices. As noted following Paragraph 14.01 above, it is also common for bid forms to be structured to require lump sum prices for specified portions of the Work, and unit prices for other Work items. Unit prices on select items can also be used in combination with other pricing methods such as cost-plus-fee; see Article 5 of EJCDC® C-525, Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Cost-Plus). 14.03 Allowances A. For cash allowances the Bid price shall include such amounts as the Bidder deems proper for Contractor's overhead, costs, profit, and other expenses on account of cash allowances, if any, named in the Contract Documents, in accordance with Paragraph 11.02.B of the General Conditions. 14.04 Price-Plus-Time Bids A. The Owner will consider the time of Substantial Completion commitment made by the Bidder in the comparison of Bids. B. Bidder shall designate the number of days required to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work and enter that number in the Bid Form as the total number of calendar days to substantially complete the Work. C. The total number of calendar days for Substantial Completion designated by Bidder shall be less than or equal to a maximum of [____], but not less than the minimum of [____]. If Bidder purports to designate a time for Substantial Completion that is less than the allowed minimum, or greater than the allowed maximum, Owner will reject the Bid as nonresponsive. D. The Agreement as executed will contain the Substantial Completion time designated in Successful Bidder’s Bid, and the Contractor will be assessed liquidated damages at the rate stated in the Agreement for failure to attain Substantial Completion within that time. E. [Bidder shall also designate the time in which it will achieve Milestones, and achieve readiness for final payment. Such time commitments shall be consistent with the “Time of 110 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 18 Substantial Completion” to which Bidder commits. The Agreement as executed will contain, as binding Contract Times, Successful Bidder’s time commitments regarding Milestones, as applicable, and readiness for final payment.] NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Paragraph 14.04 should be used if Bidder is permitted to designate the Contract Times and it is therefore necessary to explain the manner in which differences in completion time will be compared in determining the Successful Bidder. In the more common situation in which the Contract Times are fixed by Owner (by setting them out in the Agreement that has been included in the Bidding Documents), delete Paragraph 14.04. 2. The primary purpose of this price-plus-time bidding procedure is to encourage the shortening of the construction duration. It is commonly referred to as A+B bidding. This procedure is beneficial to the Owner in situations in which it is advantageous for the Work to be completed early. The apparent low bidder is determined based on a monetary combination of the traditional Contract bid item(s) (A) and the time component (B) proposed by Bidder. 3. When price-plus-time (A+B) bidding is used, the date of completion in readiness for final payment should be linked in the Agreement to the date of Substantial Completion; typically Bidders should not be asked to separately designate such date of final completion. Similarly, establishing intermediate Milestones (or asking Bidders to designate times to achieve Milestones) may be difficult because of the uncertainty of the date required for Substantial Completion, pending receipt of the Bids. For these reasons, in most cases Paragraph 14.04.E will not be needed, and should be deleted. 4. Check that the jurisdiction of the project permits consideration of the time proposed by the Bidder when determining the lowest responsive bid. 5. Another means of encouraging early completion is to offer a monetary incentive (bonus) for early completion. 6. If no liquidated damages for late completion of the Work are specified, it will be necessary to specify an adjusting amount or formula for comparing bids and Paragraph 14.04.D modified accordingly. 7. Note that the Bidder may intend to achieve the reduced project duration resulting from this price-plus-time bidding procedure by accelerated work schedules. As such the Owner and Engineer may require increased personnel for testing and inspection as well as other resources to accommodate the accelerated schedule. 8. This bidding procedure is not appropriate for all contracts. Site access limitations, safety concerns, potential third party conflicts, trade-stacking worries, and scheduling complexities (including those associated with Milestones) may make it too risky to encourage contractors to strive for an early completion. ARTICLE 15 – SUBMITTAL OF BID 15.01 With each copy of the Bidding Documents, a Bidder is furnished one separate unbound copy of the Bid Form, and, if required, the Bid Bond Form. The unbound copy of the Bid Form is to be 111 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 19 completed and submitted with the Bid security and the other documents required to be submitted under the terms of Article 7 of the Bid Form. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The language of Paragraph 15.01 may be modified to require submittal of a bound copy of the Bidding Documents intact with the Bid. This is not recommended by EJCDC, but may be required by Laws and Regulations. 2. Some public and private owners allow for some form of electronic submittal of bids, or for preparation and submittal of bids on spreadsheets or in similar formats that allow bidders to process and manage entries, particularly unit prices, with speed and accuracy. Article 15 is an appropriate location for providing instructions regarding such submittals. 15.02 A Bid shall be received no later than the date and time prescribed and at the place indicated in the advertisement or invitation to bid and shall be enclosed in a plainly marked package with the Project title (and, if applicable, the designated portion of the Project for which the Bid is submitted), the name and address of Bidder, and shall be accompanied by the Bid security and other required documents. If a Bid is sent by mail or other delivery system, the sealed envelope containing the Bid shall be enclosed in a separate package plainly marked on the outside with the notation “BID ENCLOSED.” A mailed Bid shall be addressed to [_____]. 15.03 Bids received after the date and time prescribed for the opening of bids, or not submitted at the correct location or in the designated manner, will not be accepted and will be returned to the Bidder unopened. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Bids are usually submitted to and opened at the Owner’s office, and this is frequently different from the Issuing Office. 2. Practices vary with respect to the documentation required to be submitted with Bids. It is usually necessary to supplement Article 15. ARTICLE 16 – MODIFICATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF BID 16.01 A Bid may be withdrawn by an appropriate document duly executed in the same manner that a Bid must be executed and delivered to the place where Bids are to be submitted prior to the date and time for the opening of Bids. Upon receipt of such notice, the unopened Bid will be returned to the Bidder. 16.02 If a Bidder wishes to modify its Bid prior to Bid opening, Bidder must withdraw its initial Bid in the manner specified in Paragraph 16.01 and submit a new Bid prior to the date and time for the opening of Bids. 16.03 A bid may be modified or withdrawn under the conditions set forth in N.C.G.S §143-129.1. Thereafter, if the Work is rebid, that Bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the Work. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Paragraph 16.02 allows Bidders who withdraw bids prior to opening to submit a second bid. This may not be permitted in all jurisdictions. 2. Withdrawal of any Bid that is demonstrated to contain a substantial mistake is permitted under Paragraph 16.03. However, it is recognized that some Laws 112 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 20 and Regulations or Owners’ standards or policies may differ and that it may be necessary to modify or delete Paragraph 16.03. ARTICLE 17 – OPENING OF BIDS 17.01 Bids will be opened at the time and place indicated in the advertisement or invitation to bid and, unless obviously non-responsive, read aloud publicly. An abstract of the amounts of the base Bids and major alternates, if any, will be made available to Bidders after the opening of Bids. NOTE(S) TO USER: Two paragraphs are provided, one for public opening and one for private opening. ARTICLE 18 – BIDS TO REMAIN SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE 18.01 All Bids will remain subject to acceptance for the period of time stated in the Bid Form, but Owner may, in its sole discretion, release any Bid and return the Bid security prior to the end of this period. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Provisions on the commencement of Contract Times appear in Paragraph 2.03 of the General Conditions. Note that the period of time during which Bids are to remain open and by which a Notice of Award is to be given are interrelated with the date when the Contract Times commence to run. The EJCDC suggested schedule of events between the opening of Bids and the starting of the Contract Times is discussed in the Commentary on the EJCDC Construction Documents, EJCDC® C-001, in the section commenting on Article 4 of the General Conditions. Any changes must be carefully coordinated among all of the Bidding Documents. 2. In some cases it may be feasible to extend the time that a Bid remains subject to acceptance by mutual written agreement of Owner and one or more Bidders and their respective sureties. Note, however, that the time for performance and completion of the Work are material terms of the Contract, and an extension could create a conflict with those terms. In many instances it may be better practice to rebid the Work rather than issuing lengthy extensions of the time for acceptance of bids. ARTICLE 19 – EVALUATION OF BIDS AND AWARD OF CONTRACT 19.01 Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, including without limitation, nonconforming, nonresponsive, unbalanced, or conditional Bids. Owner will reject the Bid of any Bidder that Owner finds, after reasonable inquiry and evaluation, to not be responsible. If Bidder purports to add terms or conditions to its Bid, takes exception to any provision of the Bidding Documents, or attempts to alter the contents of the Contract Documents for purposes of the Bid, then the Owner will reject the Bid as nonresponsive; provided that Owner also reserves the right to waive all minor informalities not involving price, time, or changes in the Work. 19.02 If Owner awards the contract for the Work, such award shall be to the responsible Bidder submitting the lowest responsive Bid. Award of a bid by the Owner’s governing body represents a preliminary determination as to the qualification of the Bidder, but the Bidder understands and 113 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 21 agrees that no legally binding acceptance of Bidder’s offer occurs until the Owner’s governing body, or its designee, executes a formal contract with the Bidder. NOTE(S) TO USER: The statement in Paragraph 19.02 is the prevailing rule for competitively bid public projects, and is commonly used in private construction procurements as well. The clear, unequivocal statement of the basic rule for winning the award— that the contract will go to the qualified bidder submitting the low bid—will encourage participation, stimulate competitive pricing, and avoid bid disputes. If governing ordinances or statutes, or Owner preferences, require a different rule, then amend this paragraph accordingly. 19.03 Evaluation of Bids A. In evaluating Bids, Owner will consider whether or not the Bids comply with the prescribed requirements, and such alternates, unit prices, and other data, as may be requested in the Bid Form or prior to the Notice of Award. B. In the comparison of Bids, alternates will be applied in the same order of priority as listed in the Bid Form. To determine the Bid prices for purposes of comparison, Owner shall announce to all bidders a “Base Bid plus alternates” budget after receiving all Bids, but prior to opening them. For comparison purposes alternates will be accepted, following the order of priority established in the Bid Form, until doing so would cause the budget to be exceeded. After determination of the Successful Bidder based on this comparative process and on the responsiveness, responsibility, and other factors set forth in these Instructions, the award may be made to said Successful Bidder on its base Bid and any combination of its additive alternate Bids for which Owner determines funds will be available at the time of award. [or] B. For determination of the apparent low Bidder(s) when sectional bids are submitted, Bids will be compared on the basis of the aggregate of the Bids for separate sections and the Bids for combined sections that result in the lowest total amount for all of the Work. [or] B. For the determination of the apparent low Bidder when unit price bids are submitted, Bids will be compared on the basis of the total of the products of the estimated quantity of each item and unit price Bid for that item, together with any lump sum items. [or] B. For the determination of the apparent low Bidder when cost-plus bids are submitted, Bids will be compared on the basis of the Guaranteed Maximum Price set forth by Bidder on the Bid Form. NOTE(S) TO USER: Paragraph 19.03.B provides alternative choices for comparison of bids. This must be carefully coordinated with the basis of Bid price set forth in Paragraph 14.03 above and in the Bid Form. With respect to cost-plus-fee contracts, see Note to User 2 following Paragraph 14.01 above. 114 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 22 NOTE(S) TO USER: The following should be included in these Instructions only when Paragraph 14.04, establishing a process for Bidders to commit to a shortened time for attaining Substantial Completion, will be used (price-plus-time or “A+B” bidding). C. Bid prices will be compared after adjusting for differences in time of Substantial Completion (total number of calendar days to substantially complete the Work) designated by Bidders. The adjusting amount will be determined at the rate set forth in the Agreement for liquidated damages for failing to achieve Substantial Completion, or such other amount that Owner has designated in the Bid Form. 1. The method for calculating the lowest bid for comparison will be the summation of the Bid price shown in the Bid Form plus the product of the Bidder-specified time of Substantial Completion (in calendar days) times the rate for liquidated damages [or other Owner-designated daily rate] (in dollars per day). 2. This procedure is only used to determine the lowest bid for comparison and contractor selection purposes. The Contract Price for compensation and payment purposes remains the Bid price shown in the Bid Form. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The monetary value of each calendar day to complete the Work will typically be the liquidated damages amount set forth in the Agreement for failing to achieve Substantial Completion. Thus note the importance of setting and documenting the liquidated damages for late completion to a realistic value accurately reflecting the daily effect of delays to the project or benefits of earlier completion. In appropriate cases (for example, if there are no liquidated damages stated) an alternative per-day amount can be used, such as “Monetary Value for each Calendar Day.” Regardless of the label, Owner or its representative (drafter) should specify the per-day amount in the Bid Form before distribution to Bidders. 2. The required payment and performance bonds will be based on the total construction cost shown in the Bid Form—the Successful Bidder’s Bid Price including any accepted alternates. 3. This provision must be closely coordinated with the corresponding content of the Bid Form and the Agreement. 19.04 In evaluating whether a Bidder is responsible, Owner will consider the qualifications of the Bidder and may consider the qualifications and experience of Subcontractors and Suppliers proposed for those portions of the Work for which the identity of Subcontractors and Suppliers must be submitted as provided in the Bidding Documents. 19.05 Owner may conduct such investigations as Owner deems necessary to establish the responsibility, qualifications, and financial ability of Bidders and any proposed Subcontractors or Suppliers. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Certain rights of Owner stated in Article 19, such as those regarding waiver of informalities in submitted Bids, or pertaining to qualifications and experience of Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals and entities, may not be available in public bidding. 115 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 23 2. Note particularly the relationship of Paragraph 19.05 to Notes to User accompanying Article 12. 3. Many factors not included in Article 19 as written may be important to consider in evaluating Bids for any particular project, and it will often be necessary to amend or supplement Article 19. When factors in addition to price will be significant in evaluating Bids, the manner in which evaluations will be made should be fully described in Article 19. 4. In the event major equipment is included in the Work, it may be appropriate to consider differences in operating efficiency and service support facilities. Relevant factors may include, for example, Owner-required inventory of spare parts; building design changes that may be required to accommodate the proposed equipment; experience and performance record of the Supplier or the manufacturer; and maintenance and frequency of inspections required to assure reliable performance of the equipment. Equipment-related bidding criteria may be stated in a manner similar to the following example: “The evaluation of Supplier’s or manufacturer’s data on [___] submitted with the Bid, or submitted upon request prior to the Notice of Award, will include consideration of the efficiency and related operating expense during the anticipated useful life of the equipment and the availability of service support facilities. Costs related to efficiency will be calculated as follows: Anticipated useful life 15 years. Annual service 4,000 hours. Average energy costs $0.08/kwh. Capitalization at 10% interest.” 5. Note the time within which Notice of Award may be issued is governed by the need to allow the Successful Bidder sufficient time in which to sign the Agreement—see Article 21 below. 6. EJCDC® C-510, Notice of Award, is recommended for use in awarding the Contract. ARTICLE 20 – BONDS AND INSURANCE 20.01 Article 5 of the General Conditions, as may be modified by the Supplementary Conditions, sets forth Owner’s requirements as to performance and payment bonds and insurance. When the Successful Bidder delivers the Agreement (executed by Successful Bidder) to Owner, it shall be accompanied by required bonds and insurance documentation. NOTE(S) TO USER: In the event bonds are not required, it would be appropriate to modify Paragraph 20.01. For recommended Performance and Payment Bond Forms, see EJCDC® C- 610 and C-615. 116 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 24 ARTICLE 21 – SIGNING OF AGREEMENT 21.01 When Owner issues a Notice of Award to the Successful Bidder, it shall be accompanied by the unexecuted counterparts of the Agreement along with the other Contract Documents as identified in the Agreement. Within ten (10) days thereafter, Successful Bidder shall execute and deliver the required number of counterparts of the Agreement (and any bonds and insurance documentation required to be delivered by the Contract Documents) to Owner. Thereafter, Owner shall deliver one fully executed counterpart of the Agreement to Successful Bidder, together with printed and electronic copies of the Contract Documents as stated in Paragraph 2.02 of the General Conditions. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Practices vary widely, and it is recognized that the procedures described in Article 21 may often require amending. See Commentary on the 2013 EJCDC Construction Documents, EJCDC® C-001 (section commenting on Article 4 of the General Conditions) for discussion of EJCDC's suggested scheduling of events prior to starting of the Contract Times. 2. It is customary for Owner to fill in the date on the signature page of the Agreement in order to indicate when it is to become effective (the Effective Date of the Contract) so that the required bonds may be properly dated. ADDITIONAL ARTICLES Articles 1 through 21 of these Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts, when used as intended with the other EJCDC construction related documents, address the basic subject matter required for Instructions to Bidders on most projects. However, it is often necessary to supplement the Instructions to Bidders with additional articles addressing: 1. prevailing wage rates statements required by Laws or Regulations, funding agencies, or appropriate reference thereto; 2. purchasing by Owner and subsequent assignment of procurement contracts to Contractor; 3. Owner’s special tax exemption; or 4. intended use of partnering. Examples of some supplementary articles are presented in Articles 22 and 23. ARTICLE 22 – MINORITY PARTICIPATION Bidders shall comply with the Guidelines for Recruitment and Selection of Minority Businesses for Participation in Union County Construction Contracts, attached and incorporated into the Contract Documents. Forms referenced below are included in the Bidding Documents. Pursuant to N.C.G.S. §143-128.2(c), the Bidder shall identify on its Bid the minority businesses that it will use on the Project and the total dollar value of the bid that will be performed by the minority businesses and list the good faith efforts (Affidavit A) made to solicit participation. Union County does not certify minority businesses. In order to qualify as a minority business and count towards the 10 % participation goal, the business must be certified as a historically underutilized business (“HUB”) by the North Carolina Department of Administration Office for Historically Underutilized Businesses. 117 EJCDC® C-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 25 Note: A contractor that performs all of the work with its own workforce may submit an Affidavit (B) to that effect in lieu of the Affidavit (A) required above. After the Bid opening, Owner will consider all bids and alternates and determine the lowest responsible, responsive bidder. Upon notification of being the apparent low Bidder, the Bidder shall then file within 72 hours of the notification of being the apparent lowest bidder, the following: An Affidavit (C) that includes a description of the portion of work to be executed by minority businesses, expressed as a percentage of the total contract price, which is equal to or more than the 10% goal established. This affidavit shall give rise to the presumption that the Bidder has made the required good faith effort; Or An Affidavit (D) of its good faith effort to meet the goal. The document must include evidence of all good faith efforts that were implemented, including any advertisements, solicitations and other specific actions demonstrating recruitment and selection of minority businesses for participation in the contract. Note: Bidders must submit with their bid the Identification of Minority Business Participation list and Affidavit A or Affidavit B as applicable. Failure to file a required affidavit or documentation with the Bid or after being notified apparent low Bidder may be grounds for rejection of the Bid. 118 License Agreement Before you use this EJCDC document: 1.

Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page i INTRODUCTION This Bid Form for Construction Contracts (“Bid Form”) has been prepared for use with the Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts (“Instructions”) (EJCDC® C-200, 2013 Edition); the Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (“Agreement”) (EJCDC® C-520, Stipulated Sum, or C-525, Cost-Plus, 2013 Editions); and the Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract (“General Conditions”) (EJCDC® C-700, 2013 Edition). Their provisions are interrelated, and a change in one may necessitate a change in the others. See also the Guide to the Preparation of Supplementary Conditions (EJCDC® C-800, 2013 Edition) and the Commentary on the 2013 EJCDC Construction Documents (EJCDC® C-001, 2013 Edition). The Bid Form assumes a competitive bidding process and the use of a Project Manual that contains the following documentary information for a construction project: • Bidding Requirements, which include the Advertisement or invitation to bid, the Instructions to Bidders, the Bid Form that is suggested or prescribed, all of which provide information and guidance for all Bidders, and Bid Form supplements (if any) such as Bid Bond Form and Qualifications Statement; and, • Contract Documents, which include the Agreement, performance and payment bonds, the General Conditions, the Supplementary Conditions, the Drawings, and the Specifications. (Note also that the Supplementary Conditions and other Contract Documents may refer to other documents that are provided to or made available to Bidders for reference purposes, but which are not Contract Documents.) Together, the Bidding Requirements and the Contract Documents are referred to as the Bidding Documents. (The terms “Bidding Documents,” ”Bidding Requirements,” and “Contract Documents” are defined in Article 1 of the General Conditions.) The Bidding Requirements are not Contract Documents because much of their substance pertains to the relationships prior to the award of the Contract, and has little effect or impact thereafter. Many contracts are awarded without even going through a bidding process, and thus have no Bidding Requirements, illustrating that the bidding items are typically superfluous to the formation of a binding and comprehensive construction contract. The Bid Form itself ordinarily should not be included as one of the Contract Documents. In most cases the pricing information contained in the Bid Form is transferred into the Agreement. However, there are situations where, to avoid errors incident to rekeying, it may prove wise to attach the Bid Form (or a reproduced copy of it) as an exhibit to the Agreement. The likelihood of such errors increases with many unit-price bid items. The Bid Form should not contain basic contractual provisions since it is only an offer to perform the Work as required by and in accordance with the Contract Documents. Suggested provisions are accompanied by “Notes to User” and bracketed notes and prompts to assist in preparing the Bid Form prior to distribution to prospective Bidders. The provisions have been coordinated with the other forms produced by EJCDC. Much of the language should be usable on most projects, but modifications and additional provisions often will be necessary. When modifying the suggested language or writing additional provisions, the user must check the other documents thoroughly for conflicts and coordination of terms, and make appropriate revisions in all affected documents. All parties involved in a construction project benefit significantly from a standardized approach in the location of subject matter throughout the documents. Experience confirms the danger of addressing the same subject matter in more than one location; doing so frequently leads to confusion and unanticipated legal consequences. When preparing documents for a construction project, careful attention should be given to the guidance provided in EJCDC® N-122/AIA® A521, Uniform Location of Subject Matter (2012 124 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page ii Edition), available at no charge from the EJCDC website, www.ejcdc.org, and from the websites of EJCDC’s sponsoring organizations. If CSI’s MasterFormat™ is being used for the Project Manual, consult MasterFormat™ for the appropriate document number and number the pages accordingly. Instructions and restrictions regarding the use of this document are set out in the License Agreement that accompanied the document at the time of purchase. To prepare this document for use on a specific project, (1) remove the cover pages and this Introduction, (2) fill in Project-specific information and make revisions to the document, following the guidance in the Notes to Users and bracketed notes and prompts, and the advice of legal counsel, and (3) delete the Notes to Users and bracketed notes and prompts. 125 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts.

Page 2 ARTICLE 3 – BIDDER’S REPRESENTATIONS 3.01 In submitting this Bid, Bidder represents that: A. Bidder has examined and carefully studied the Bidding Documents, and any data and reference items identified in the Bidding Documents, and hereby acknowledges receipt of the following Addenda: Addendum No. Addendum, Date NOTE(S) TO USER: It is important that all Bidders receive and acknowledge receipt of all Addenda. To be certain that Bidders receive all Addenda, use of methods providing proof of receipt, such as courier services or return receipt requested mail, is suggested. (If fax or e-mail is used, Bidders should be requested to confirm receipt by the same means.) Ensure any specific requirement of the Owner concerning issuing and receipt of Addenda are reviewed and addressed. Note also the definition of Addenda in Article 1 of General Conditions, indicating that by definition Addenda are documents issued prior to the opening of Bids. B. Bidder has visited the Site, conducted a thorough, alert visual examination of the Site and adjacent areas, and become familiar with and satisfied itself as to the general, local, and Site conditions that may affect cost, progress, and performance of the Work. NOTE(S) TO USER: It is important for Bidder to visit the Site before submitting its Bid and to conduct an alert, heads-up, eyes-open examination of the area and conditions under which the Work is to be performed. See Instructions, Article 4. C. Bidder is familiar with and has satisfied itself as to all Laws and Regulations that may affect cost, progress, and performance of the Work. D. Bidder has carefully studied all: (1) reports of explorations and tests of subsurface conditions at or adjacent to the Site and all drawings of physical conditions relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at the Site that have been identified in the Supplementary Conditions, especially with respect to Technical Data in such reports and drawings, and (2) reports and drawings relating to Hazardous Environmental Conditions, if any, at or adjacent to the Site that have been identified in the Supplementary Conditions, especially with respect to Technical Data in such reports and drawings. NOTE(S) TO USER: If there are no reports or drawings of the type referred to in this representation, either modify or delete the paragraph. E. Bidder has considered the information known to Bidder itself; information commonly known to contractors doing business in the locality of the Site; information and observations obtained from visits to the Site; the Bidding Documents; and any Site-related reports and 129 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 3 drawings identified in the Bidding Documents, with respect to the effect of such information, observations, and documents on (1) the cost, progress, and performance of the Work; (2) the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction to be employed by Bidder; and (3) Bidder’s safety precautions and programs. F. Bidder agrees, based on the information and observations referred to in the preceding paragraph, that no further examinations, investigations, explorations, tests, studies, or data are necessary for the determination of this Bid for performance of the Work at the price bid and within the times required, and in accordance with the other terms and conditions of the Bidding Documents. G. Bidder is aware of the general nature of work to be performed by Owner and others at the Site that relates to the Work as indicated in the Bidding Documents. H. Bidder has given Engineer written notice of all conflicts, errors, ambiguities, or discrepancies that Bidder has discovered in the Bidding Documents, and confirms that the written resolution thereof by Engineer is acceptable to Bidder. I. The Bidding Documents are generally sufficient to indicate and convey understanding of all terms and conditions for the performance and furnishing of the Work. J. The submission of this Bid constitutes an incontrovertible representation by Bidder that Bidder has complied with every requirement of this Article, and that without exception the Bid and all prices in the Bid are premised upon performing and furnishing the Work required by the Bidding Documents. NOTE(S) TO USER: If any changes to these representations are made in the Bid Form, corresponding changes may need to be made in both the Instructions to Bidders and the Agreement. ARTICLE 4 – BIDDER’S CERTIFICATION 4.01 Bidder certifies that: A. This Bid is genuine and not made in the interest of or on behalf of any undisclosed individual or entity and is not submitted in conformity with any collusive agreement or rules of any group, association, organization, or corporation; B. Bidder has not directly or indirectly induced or solicited any other Bidder to submit a false or sham Bid; C. Bidder has not solicited or induced any individual or entity to refrain from bidding; and D. Bidder has not engaged in corrupt, fraudulent, collusive, or coercive practices in competing for the Contract. For the purposes of this Paragraph 4.01.D: 1. “corrupt practice” means the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of any thing of value likely to influence the action of a public official in the bidding process; 2. “fraudulent practice” means an intentional misrepresentation of facts made (a) to influence the bidding process to the detriment of Owner, (b) to establish bid prices at artificial non-competitive levels, or (c) to deprive Owner of the benefits of free and open competition; 130 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 4 3. “collusive practice” means a scheme or arrangement between two or more Bidders, with or without the knowledge of Owner, a purpose of which is to establish bid prices at artificial, non-competitive levels; and 4. “coercive practice” means harming or threatening to harm, directly or indirectly, persons or their property to influence their participation in the bidding process or affect the e execution of the Contract. NOTE(S) TO USER: For public work, relevant requirements of Laws and Regulations in the jurisdiction where Work is to be performed should be coordinated with the language of this paragraph. ARTICLE 5 – BASIS OF BID 5.01 Bidder will complete the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents for the following price(s): NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Note that language is provided for lump sum (three suggested formats), lump sum allowances (two formats), a stipulated lump sum for an assigned contract, unit price Bids, a price-plus-time bidding option, and cost-plus-fee (two suggested fee formats). The contract pricing may include various combinations of these methods. Inapplicable methods and language should be deleted. 2. Provide sufficient space and arrange format so that Bidders will have uniform understanding of how to submit prices. [SUGGESTED FORMATS FOR LUMP SUM BID] Lump Sum Bid Price $ [or] Lump Sum Bid Price for Base Bid $ Alternate A [Add] [Deduct] $ Alternate B [Add] [Deduct] $ [or] Lump Sum Bid Price for Section I only $ Lump Sum Bid Price for Section II only $ Lump Sum Bid Price for Sections I and II $ [and (if applicable)] NOTE(S) TO USER: Drafter should fill in the amounts below for allowances prior to distribution of Bid Form 131 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 5 Lump Sum for Cash Allowances $ All specified cash allowances are included in the price(s) set forth above, and have been computed in accordance with Paragraph 11.02 of the General Conditions. [or] [and] Lump Sum Contingency Allowance $ NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. If alternate Bids are requested, it is preferable that they be all “deductive” or all “additive.” Alternates should be clearly specified in Division 01 of the Specifications (General Requirements). The itemization in the Bid Form should be clearly identifiable and carefully follow the Division 01 presentation. The Instructions should contain appropriate guidance for preparing the Bid. Alternates should be accepted in a particular order, which should be explained in the Instructions. The alternates should be listed here in the Bid Form in order of priority. 2. To minimize the risk of error and to ensure objectivity in comparison of Bids, a single lump sum Bid price for a complete project or section is preferable to a total price determined by the sum of a list of individual lump sum items. 3. Allowances are addressed at Paragraph 11.02 of the General Conditions. Cash allowances, if such are to be used, should be clearly specified in Division 01. Language such as the following is typically used: "Allow the lump sum of [$___] for the supply and installation of: [1. Amount and description of Cash Allowance 1] [2. Amount and description of Cash Allowance 2]." Owner or its representative (“drafter”) should add the cash allowances and as noted above enter the sum in the Bid Form prior to making the Bid Form available to prospective Bidders. Similarly, the Owner establishes the contingency allowance, if any, and drafter should enter it in the location indicated. If the contingency is to apply only to certain categories of the Work, or if there are to be multiple contingency allowances, revise as needed. 4. The following provisions apply only when a separate contract entered into by the Owner for the Project will be assigned to the Contractor—in such case, include the provisions as part of this Article 5 of the Bid Form: 4a. Below is a suggested format for incorporating into the Bid Form language in support of the assignment of a procurement contract for the purchase by Owner (as “Buyer”) of goods and special services from an equipment manufacturer (as “Seller”), where the Owner intends to assign the procurement contract to the Contractor. 4b. When the Project includes a procurement contract that will be assigned to the Contractor, EJCDC suggests including in the construction contract Bid Form a separate bid item for each procurement contract, with the associated balance of the procurement contract price that has not yet been paid by the Owner to the Seller at the time of the construction contract’s Effective Date (Effective Date of the Contract). The drafter of the construction contract Bid Form should explicitly indicate the specific amount before the construction contract is advertised for Bids or negotiated, as applicable. Thus, the 132 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 6 construction Contract Price will include the unpaid balance of the procurement contract price, allowing the Contractor to invoice the Owner for payments that Contractor will make to the Seller after the assignment is effective, and ensuring that the Contractor’s performance bond and payment bond are each in an amount equal to the total price of construction plus the amount of the procurement contract for which the Contractor will be responsible. When the Contractor will furnish builder’s risk or installation floater insurance for the Work, inclusion in the construction Contract Price of the unpaid procurement contract amount will aid in attaining insurance coverage that is sufficient to cover the procured item. 4c. The amount to be stipulated for this bid item in the construction Bid Form will often be the total procurement contract price minus the amount paid by Owner to Seller for approval of the procurement contract shop drawings. 4d. When the construction will be implemented under multiple prime construction contracts, provisions relating to the assignment of the procurement contract should be included only on the construction Bid Form for the prime construction contract that is to incorporate the stipulated procurement contract bid item. 4e. For additional information on assigning a procurement contract, refer to EJCDC® P-001, Commentary on the EJCDC Procurement Documents. For other recommended language on assignment to be incorporated into the construction Bidding Requirements and construction Contract Documents, refer to the Notes to User at Article 23 of EJCDC® P-200, Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Procurement Contracts. 5. Drafter to specify amount below; see Note to User Nos. 4a-e, above.

Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 8 Total of Lump Sum and Unit Price Bids = Total Bid Price $ NOTE(S) TO USER: If unit prices are requested, whether it be a unit price Bid or in connection with a lump sum or cost-plus contract, appropriate guidance for completing the Bid Form should appear in the Instructions, and details with respect to what is included in each unit price item should be included in the Specifications. Owner or its representative should provide an estimated quantity in the Bid Form for each item as defined or indicated in the Specifications. Read specifically Paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions and Paragraph SC-11.03 of the Supplementary Conditions. [SUGGESTED FORMAT FOR PRICE-PLUS-TIME BID] Total Bid Price $__________. Total number of calendar days to substantially complete the Work: _______ days. Liquidated Damages Rate (from Agreement): $__________ /day. NOTE(S) TO USER: [Drafter should fill in the Liquidated Damages Rate, from Agreement, for use by all Bidders.] Amount for Comparison = Total Bid Price + (Calendar days for completion x Liquidated Damages Rate) = __________. The purpose of the formula above is only to calculate the lowest price-plus-time bid amount for bid comparison purposes. The price for completion of the Work (the Contract Price) is the Total Bid Price. Bonds required under Paragraph 5.01 of the General Conditions will be based on the Contract Price. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. The monetary value of each calendar day to complete the Work will typically be the liquidated damages amount set forth in the Agreement for failing to achieve Substantial Completion. In appropriate cases (for example, if there are no liquidated damages stated) alternate wording to “Liquidated Damages Rate” can be used, such as “Monetary Value for each Calendar Day.” Regardless of the label, as noted above the per-day amount should be specified in the Bid Form by Owner or its representative (“drafter”) before distribution to Bidders. 2. If bids are on a cost-plus-fee basis (see suggested formats below), subject to a guaranteed maximum price that will be used as the basis of comparison, the “Price-Plus-Time” process can be used, with the following structure: Guaranteed Maximum Price: $_______________. Total number of calendar days to substantially complete the Work: _______ days. 135 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts. Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 9 Liquidated Damages Rate (from Agreement): $__________ /day. [Drafter should fill in the Liquidated Damages Rate, from Agreement, for use by all Bidders.] Amount for Comparison = Guaranteed Maximum Price + (Calendar days for completion x Liquidated Damages Rate) = __________. The purpose of the formula above is only to calculate the lowest price-plus-time bid amount for bid comparison purposes. The price for completion of the Work (the Contract Price) is based on the cost of the Work, plus a fee, subject to a guaranteed maximum price, as set forth in the Agreement. Bonds required under Paragraph 5.01 of the General Conditions will be based on the Contract Price. [SUGGESTED FORMATS FOR COST-PLUS-FEE BID] The cost of the Work (other than Unit Price and other excluded Work), determined as provided in Paragraph 11.01 of the General Conditions, together with the following fee, and subject to the Guaranteed Maximum Price: NOTE(S) TO USER: Select one of the following methods to determine the Bidder’s fee. Contractor’s fee will be a fixed sum of $_______________. [or] Contractor’s fee will be determined by applying the following percentages to the various portions of the Cost of the Work as defined in Article 11 of the General Conditions: Percent Payroll costs Material and Equipment Costs Amounts paid to Subcontractors Amounts paid to special consultants Supplemental costs None of the costs described in Paragraph 11.01.B of the General Conditions will be included in determining Contractor’s fee. The maximum amount payable to Contractor on account of this percentage fee will not exceed: $_______________. The Guaranteed Maximum Price to Owner of the Cost of the Work including Contractor’s Fee will not exceed $_______________. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. In cost-plus-fee contracts, provide space for the Bid figures to be included in the Agreement, such as varying percentages on which the Contractor’s fee may be based and amount of Work to be subcontracted. Provide space for the guaranteed maximum price(s) where applicable. See EJCDC® C-525, Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract, Cost- Plus, 2013 Edition. 136 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts.

The Bid Form must be identical with that of the proposed Agreement, and the format for submission of percentages and maximum amount organized so as to permit the easy transfer of information in the Bid of the Successful Bidder to the final Agreement that Owner and Contractor will execute. 3. In most cases cost-plus-fee contracts are negotiated or part of a proposal- based selection process, rather than competitively bid. When competitive bidding is used for cost-plus-fee, the most common criterion for comparison of bids is a Guaranteed Maximum Price. For that reason, EJCDC assumes for purposes of this Bid Form that a Guaranteed Maximum Price will apply to the Cost of the Work plus Contractor's fee, and thus on cost-plus-fee contracts the drafter should include and Bidders should complete the Guaranteed Maximum Price provision. See EJCDC® C-525, Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Cost-Plus), 2013 Edition, Article 8. 4. See also the Instructions, Articles 14 and 19, including discussion of customized bidding procedures for cost-plus-fee that use the Contractor’s Fee for comparison purposes. [END OF SUGGESTED BID FORMATS] ARTICLE 6 – TIME OF COMPLETION 6.01 Bidder agrees that the Work will be substantially complete and will be completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions on or before the dates or within the number of calendar days indicated in the Agreement. [or] 6.01 Bidder agrees that the Work will be substantially complete on or before _____, and will be completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions on or before _____. [or] 6.01 Bidder agrees that the Work will be substantially complete within _____ calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run as provided in Paragraph 2.03 of the General Conditions, and will be completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions within _____ calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run. NOTE(S) TO USER: 1. Select one of the above paragraphs to establish the Contract Times for the Work. 2. If the Contract Times are designated by the Owner prior to the receipt of Bids, the first option should be selected in order to avoid a potential conflict with the Agreement. 3. If Bidders are permitted to designate the Contract Times by calendar date, the second option should be selected. 4. If Bidders are permitted to designate the Contract Times by calendar days, the third option should be selected. 137 EJCDC® C-410, Bid Form for Construction Contracts.

Bid Form language should follow exactly the language of the Agreement. For some projects it may be desirable to include space for Bidders to indicate variations in completion times, but note that in some jurisdictions it is required that an award be made to the lowest Bidder regardless of time for completion. 6. When the basis of award is a price-plus-time Bid, these time-of-completion provisions must be carefully coordinated with the criteria for Bid comparisons. 6.02 Bidder accepts the provisions of the Agreement as to liquidated damages. NOTE(S) TO USER: Provisions for liquidated damages should appear in the Agreement and may be cross-referenced in other places in the Bidding Requirements and the Contract Documents. It is unwise to repeat liquidated damages provisions in the Bid or to summarize or paraphrase them here or elsewhere.

All rights reserved. Page i INTRODUCTION This Suggested Form of Agreement between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Stipulated Price) (“Agreement”) has been prepared for use with the Suggested Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contracts (“Instructions to Bidders”) (EJCDC C-200, 2007 Edition); the Suggested Bid Form for Construction Contracts (“Bid Form”) (EJCDC C-410, 2007 Edition); and the Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract (“General Conditions”) (EJCDC C-700, 2007 Edition). Their provisions are interrelated, and a change in one may necessitate a change in the others. See also the Guide to the Preparation of Supplementary Conditions (EJCDC C-800, 2007 Edition), and the Narrative Guide to the 2007 EJCDC Construction Documents (EJCDC C-001, 2007 Edition). This Agreement form assumes use of a Project Manual that contains the following documentary information for a construction project: · Bidding Requirements, which include the advertisement or invitation to bid, the Instructions to Bidders, and the Bid Form that is suggested or prescribed, all of which provide information and guidance for all Bidders; and · Contract Documents, which include the Agreement, performance and payment bonds, the General Conditions, the Supplementary Conditions, the Drawings, and the Specifications. The Bidding Requirements are not Contract Documents because much of their substance pertains to the relationships prior to the award of the Contract and has little effect or impact thereafter, and because many contracts are awarded without going through the bidding process. In some cases, however, the actual Bid may be attached as an exhibit to the Agreement to avoid extensive rekeying. (The definitions of terms used in this Agreement, including “Bidding Documents,” “Bidding Requirements,” and "Contract Documents," are set forth Article 1 of the General Conditions.) Suggested provisions are accompanied by “Notes to User” to assist in preparing the Agreement. The provisions have been coordinated with the other forms produced by EJCDC. Much of the language should be usable on most projects, but modifications and additional provisions will often be necessary. When modifying the suggested language or writing additional provisions, the user must check the other documents thoroughly for conflicts and coordination of terms and make appropriate revisions in all affected documents. All parties involved in construction projects benefit significantly from a standardized approach in the location of subject matter throughout the documents. Experience confirms the danger of addressing the same subject matter in more than one location: doing so frequently leads to confusion and unanticipated legal consequences. When preparing documents for a construction project, careful attention should be given to the guidance provided in the Uniform Location of Subject Matter (EJCDC N-122). EJCDC has designated Section 00520 for this Agreement. If this convention is used, the first page of the Agreement would be numbered 00520-1. If CSI’s MasterFormat 04™ is being used for the Project Manual, consult MasterFormat 04 for the appropriate section number and number the pages accordingly. For brevity, paragraphs of the Instructions to Bidders are referenced with the prefix “I,” those of the Bid Form are referenced with the prefix “BF,” and those of this Agreement are referenced with the prefix “A.” NOTE: EJCDC publications may be purchased from any of the organizations listed on the page immediately following the cover page of this document. 148 EJCDC C-520 Suggested Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Stipulated Price) Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 1 of 10 SUGGESTED FORM OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN OWNER AND CONTRACTOR FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT (STIPULATED PRICE) THIS AGREEMENT is by and between UNION COUNTY (“Owner”) and (“Contractor”).

The Work is generally described as follows: ARTICLE 2 – THE PROJECT 2.01 The Project for which the Work under the Contract Documents may be the whole or only a part is generally described as follows: ARTICLE 3 – ENGINEER 3.01 The Project has been designed by (Engineer), which is to act as Owner’s representative, assume all duties and responsibilities, and have the rights and authority assigned to Engineer in the Contract Documents in connection with the completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. ARTICLE 4 – CONTRACT TIMES 4.01 Time of the Essence A. All time limits for Milestones, if any, Substantial Completion, and completion and readiness for final payment as stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. 4.02 Dates for Substantial Completion and Final Payment A. The Work will be substantially completed on or before , and completed and ready for final payment in accordance with Paragraph 14.07 of the General Conditions on or before . 149 EJCDC C-520 Suggested Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Stipulated Price) Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC.

The parties also recognize the delays, expense, and difficulties involved in proving in a legal or arbitration proceeding the actual loss suffered by Owner if the Work is not completed on time. Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof, Owner and Contractor agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty), Contractor shall pay Owner $ for each day that expires after the time specified in Paragraph 4.02 above for Substantial Completion until the Work is substantially complete. After Substantial Completion, if Contractor shall neglect, refuse, or fail to complete the remaining Work within the Contract Time or any proper extension thereof granted by Owner, Contractor shall pay Owner $ for each day that expires after the time specified in Paragraph 4.02 above for completion and readiness for final payment until the Work is completed and ready for final payment. B. In addition to liquidated damages, Contractor shall reimburse Owner all fees and costs paid to or incurred by Engineer in administering the construction of the Project beyond the time specified in Paragraph 4.02 above for Substantial Completion. All fees and costs may be deducted from monies due Contractor for the performance of the Work. NOTE TO USER If failure to reach a Milestone on time is of such consequence that the assessment of liquidated damages for failure to reach one or more Milestones on time is to be provided, appropriate amending or supplementing language should be inserted here. ARTICLE 5 – CONTRACT PRICE 5.01 Owner shall pay Contractor for completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents an amount in current funds equal to the sum of the amounts determined pursuant to Paragraphs 5.01.A, 5.01.B, and 5.01.C below: A.

Page 2 of 3 1. The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns to the Owner for the performance of the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein by reference. 2. If the Contractor performs the Construction Contract, the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation under this Bond, except when applicable to participate in a conference as provided in Paragraph 3. 3. If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety’s obligation under this Bond shall arise after: 3.1 The Owner first provides notice to the Contractor and the Surety that the Owner is considering declaring a Contractor Default. Such notice shall indicate whether the Owner is requesting a conference among the Owner, Contractor, and Surety to discuss the Contractor’s performance. If the Owner does not request a conference, the Surety may, within five (5) business days after receipt of the Owner’s notice, request such a conference. If the Surety timely requests a conference, the Owner shall attend. Unless the Owner agrees otherwise, any conference requested under this Paragraph 3.1 shall be held within ten (10) business days of the Surety’s receipt of the Owner’s notice. If the Owner, the Contractor, and the Surety agree, the Contractor shall be allowed a reasonable time to perform the Construction Contract, but such an agreement shall not waive the Owner’s right, if any, subsequently to declare a Contractor Default; 3.2 The Owner declares a Contractor Default, terminates the Construction Contract and notifies the Surety; and 3.3 The Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract Price in accordance with the terms of the Construction Contract to the Surety or to a contractor selected to perform the Construction Contract. 4. Failure on the part of the Owner to comply with the notice requirement in Paragraph 3.1 shall not constitute a failure to comply with a condition precedent to the Surety’s obligations, or release the Surety from its obligations, except to the extent the Surety demonstrates actual prejudice. 5. When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Paragraph 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety’s expense take one of the following actions: 5.1 Arrange for the Contractor, with the consent of the Owner, to perform and complete the Construction Contract; 5.2 Undertake to perform and complete the Construction Contract itself, through its agents or independent contractors; 5.3 Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from qualified contractors acceptable to the Owner for a contract for performance and completion of the Construction Contract, arrange for a contract to be prepared for execution by the Owner and a contractor selected with the Owners concurrence, to be secured with performance and payment bonds executed by a qualified surety equivalent to the bonds issued on the Construction Contract, and pay to the Owner the amount of damages as described in Paragraph 7 in excess of the Balance of the Contract Price incurred by the Owner as a result of the Contractor Default; or 5.4 Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange for completion, or obtain a new contractor, and with reasonable promptness under the circumstances: 5.4.1 After investigation, determine the amount for which it may be liable to the Owner and, as soon as practicable after the amount is determined, make payment to the Owner; or 5.4.2 Deny liability in whole or in part and notify the Owner, citing the reasons for denial. 6. If the Surety does not proceed as provided in Paragraph 5 with reasonable promptness, the Surety shall be deemed to be in default on this Bond seven days after receipt of an additional written notice from the Owner to the Surety demanding that the Surety perform its obligations under this Bond, and the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner. If the Surety proceeds as provided in Paragraph 5.4, and the Owner refuses the payment or the Surety has denied liability, in whole or in part, without further notice the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner. 7. If the Surety elects to act under Paragraph 5.1, 5.2, or 5.3, then the responsibilities of the Surety to the Owner shall not be greater than those of the Contractor under the Construction Contract, and the responsibilities of the Owner to the Surety shall not be greater than those of the Owner under the Construction Contract. Subject to the commitment by the Owner to pay the Balance of the Contract Price, the Surety is obligated, without duplication for: 7.1 the responsibilities of the Contractor for correction of defective work and completion of the Construction Contract; 7.2 additional legal, design professional, and delay costs resulting from the Contractor’s Default, and resulting from the actions or failure to act of the Surety under Paragraph 5; and 7.3 liquidated damages, or if no liquidated damages are specified in the Construction Contract, actual damages caused by delayed performance or non-performance of the Contractor. 8. If the Surety elects to act under Paragraph 5.1, 5.3, or 5.4, the Surety’s liability is limited to the amount of this Bond. 9. The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner or others for obligations of the Contractor that are unrelated to the Construction Contract, and the Balance of the Contract Price shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such unrelated obligations. No right of action shall accrue on this Bond to any person or entity other than the Owner or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns. 10. The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, including changes of time, to the Construction Contract or to related subcontracts, purchase orders, and other obligations. 11. Any proceeding, legal or equitable, under this Bond may be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in the location in which the work or part of the work is located and shall be instituted within two years after a declaration of Contractor Default or within 160 EJCDC C-610 – Performance Bond Published December 2010 by the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee. Page 3 of 3 two years after the Contractor ceased working or within two years after the Surety refuses or fails to perform its obligations under this Bond, whichever occurs first. If the provisions of this paragraph are void or prohibited by law, the minimum periods of limitations available to sureties as a defense in the jurisdiction of the suit shall be applicable. 12. Notice to the Surety, the Owner, or the Contractor shall be mailed or delivered to the address shown on the page on which their signature appears. 13. When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement in the location where the construction was to be performed, any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or legal requirement shall be deemed deleted herefrom and provisions conforming to such statutory or other legal requirement shall be deemed incorporated herein. When so furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a common law bond. 14. Definitions 14.1 Balance of the Contract Price: The total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract after all proper adjustments have been made including allowance for the Contractor for any amounts received or to be received by the Owner in settlement of insurance or other claims for damages to which the Contractor is entitled, reduced by all valid and proper payments made to or on behalf of the Contractor under the Construction Contract. 14.2 Construction Contract: The agreement between the Owner and Contractor identified on the cover page, including all Contract Documents and changes made to the agreement and the Contract Documents. 14.3 Contractor Default: Failure of the Contractor, which has not been remedied or waived, to perform or otherwise to comply with a material term of the Construction Contract. 14.4 Owner Default: Failure of the Owner, which has not been remedied or waived, to pay the Contractor as required under the Construction Contract or to perform and complete or comply with the other material terms of the Construction Contract. 14.5 Contract Documents: All the documents that comprise the agreement between the Owner and Contractor. 15.

Page 2 of 3 1. The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns to the Owner to pay for labor, materials, and equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein by reference, subject to the following terms. 2. If the Contractor promptly makes payment of all sums due to Claimants, and defends, indemnifies, and holds harmless the Owner from claims, demands, liens, or suits by any person or entity seeking payment for labor, materials, or equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract, then the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation under this Bond. 3. If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety’s obligation to the Owner under this Bond shall arise after the Owner has promptly notified the Contractor and the Surety (at the address described in Paragraph 13) of claims, demands, liens, or suits against the Owner or the Owner’s property by any person or entity seeking payment for labor, materials, or equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract, and tendered defense of such claims, demands, liens, or suits to the Contractor and the Surety. 4. When the Owner has satisfied the conditions in Paragraph 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety’s expense defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Owner against a duly tendered claim, demand, lien, or suit. 5. The Surety’s obligations to a Claimant under this Bond shall arise after the following: 5.1 Claimants who do not have a direct contract with the Contractor, 5.1.1 have furnished a written notice of non- payment to the Contractor, stating with substantial accuracy the amount claimed and the name of the party to whom the materials were, or equipment was, furnished or supplied or for whom the labor was done or performed, within ninety (90) days after having last performed labor or last furnished materials or equipment included in the Claim; and 5.1.2 have sent a Claim to the Surety (at the address described in Paragraph 13). 5.2 Claimants who are employed by or have a direct contract with the Contractor have sent a Claim to the Surety (at the address described in Paragraph 13). 6. If a notice of non-payment required by Paragraph 5.1.1 is given by the Owner to the Contractor, that is sufficient to satisfy a Claimant’s obligation to furnish a written notice of non-payment under Paragraph 5.1.1. 7. When a Claimant has satisfied the conditions of Paragraph 5.1 or 5.2, whichever is applicable, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety’s expense take the following actions: 7.1 Send an answer to the Claimant, with a copy to the Owner, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Claim, stating the amounts that are undisputed and the basis for challenging any amounts that are disputed; and 7.2 Pay or arrange for payment of any undisputed amounts. 7.3 The Surety’s failure to discharge its obligations under Paragraph 7.1 or 7.2 shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of defenses the Surety or Contractor may have or acquire as to a Claim, except as to undisputed amounts for which the Surety and Claimant have reached agreement. If, however, the Surety fails to discharge its obligations under Paragraph 7.1 or 7.2, the Surety shall indemnify the Claimant for the reasonable attorney’s fees the Claimant incurs thereafter to recover any sums found to be due and owing to the Claimant. 8. The Surety’s total obligation shall not exceed the amount of this Bond, plus the amount of reasonable attorney’s fees provided under Paragraph 7.3, and the amount of this Bond shall be credited for any payments made in good faith by the Surety. 9. Amounts owed by the Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract shall be used for the performance of the Construction Contract and to satisfy claims, if any, under any construction performance bond. By the Contractor furnishing and the Owner accepting this Bond, they agree that all funds earned by the Contractor in the performance of the Construction Contract are dedicated to satisfy obligations of the Contractor and Surety under this Bond, subject to the Owner’s priority to use the funds for the completion of the work. 10. The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner, Claimants, or others for obligations of the Contractor that are unrelated to the Construction Contract. The Owner shall not be liable for the payment of any costs or expenses of any Claimant under this Bond, and shall have under this Bond no obligation to make payments to or give notice on behalf of Claimants, or otherwise have any obligations to Claimants under this Bond. 11. The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, including changes of time, to the Construction Contract or to related subcontracts, purchase orders, and other obligations. 12. No suit or action shall be commenced by a Claimant under this Bond other than in a court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which the project that is the subject of the Construction Contract is located or after the expiration of one year from the date (1) on which the Claimant sent a Claim to the Surety pursuant to Paragraph 5.1.2 or 5.2, or 163 EJCDC C-615, Payment Bond Published December 2010 by the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee.

If the provisions of this paragraph are void or prohibited by law, the minimum period of limitation available to sureties as a defense in the jurisdiction of the suit shall be applicable. 13. Notice and Claims to the Surety, the Owner, or the Contractor shall be mailed or delivered to the address shown on the page on which their signature appears. Actual receipt of notice or Claims, however accomplished, shall be sufficient compliance as of the date received. 14. When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement in the location where the construction was to be performed, any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or legal requirement shall be deemed deleted herefrom and provisions conforming to such statutory or other legal requirement shall be deemed incorporated herein. When so furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a common law bond. 15. Upon requests by any person or entity appearing to be a potential beneficiary of this Bond, the Contractor and Owner shall promptly furnish a copy of this Bond or shall permit a copy to be made. 16.

Page 22 of 67 5.07 Waiver of Rights A. Owner and Contractor intend that all policies purchased in accordance with Paragraph 5.06 will protect Owner, Contractor, Subcontractors, and Engineer, and all other individuals or entities identified in the Supplementary Conditions as loss payees (and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors of each and any of them) in such policies and will provide primary coverage for all losses and damages caused by the perils or causes of loss covered thereby. All such policies shall contain provisions to the effect that in the event of payment of any loss or damage the insurers will have no rights of recovery against any of the insureds or loss payees thereunder. Owner and Contractor waive all rights against each other and their respective officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them for all losses and damages caused by, arising out of or resulting from any of the perils or causes of loss covered by such policies and any other property insurance applicable to the Work; and, in addition, waive all such rights against Subcontractors and Engineer, and all other individuals or entities identified in the Supplementary Conditions as loss payees (and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors of each and any of them) under such policies for losses and damages so caused. None of the above waivers shall extend to the rights that any party making such waiver may have to the proceeds of insurance held by Owner as trustee or otherwise payable under any policy so issued. B. Owner waives all rights against Contractor, Subcontractors, and Engineer, and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them for: 1. loss due to business interruption, loss of use, or other consequential loss extending beyond direct physical loss or damage to Owner’s property or the Work caused by, arising out of, or resulting from fire or other perils whether or not insured by Owner; and 2. loss or damage to the completed Project or part thereof caused by, arising out of, or resulting from fire or other insured peril or cause of loss covered by any property insurance maintained on the completed Project or part thereof by Owner during partial utilization pursuant to Paragraph 14.05, after Substantial Completion pursuant to Paragraph 14.04, or after final payment pursuant to Paragraph 14.07. C. Any insurance policy maintained by Owner covering any loss, damage or consequential loss referred to in Paragraph 5.07.B shall contain provisions to the effect that in the event of payment of any such loss, damage, or consequential loss, the insurers will have no rights of recovery against Contractor, Subcontractors, or Engineer, and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them. 5.08 Receipt and Application of Insurance Proceeds A. Any insured loss under the policies of insurance required by Paragraph 5.06 will be adjusted with Owner and made payable to Owner as fiduciary for the loss payees, as their interests may appear, subject to the requirements of any applicable mortgage clause and of Paragraph 5.08.B. Owner shall deposit in a separate account any money so received and shall distribute it in accordance with such agreement as the parties in interest may reach. If no other special agreement is reached, the 195 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 23 of 67 damaged Work shall be repaired or replaced, the moneys so received applied on account thereof, and the Work and the cost thereof covered by an appropriate Change Order. B. Owner as fiduciary shall have power to adjust and settle any loss with the insurers unless one of the parties in interest shall object in writing within 15 days after the occurrence of loss to Owner’s exercise of this power. If such objection be made, Owner as fiduciary shall make settlement with the insurers in accordance with such agreement as the parties in interest may reach. If no such agreement among the parties in interest is reached, Owner as fiduciary shall adjust and settle the loss with the insurers and, if required in writing by any party in interest, Owner as fiduciary shall give bond for the proper performance of such duties. 5.09 Acceptance of Bonds and Insurance; Option to Replace A. If either Owner or Contractor has any objection to the coverage afforded by or other provisions of the bonds or insurance required to be purchased and maintained by the other party in accordance with Article 5 on the basis of non-conformance with the Contract Documents, the objecting party shall so notify the other party in writing within 10 days after receipt of the certificates (or other evidence requested) required by Paragraph 2.01.B. Owner and Contractor shall each provide to the other such additional information in respect of insurance provided as the other may reasonably request. If either party does not purchase or maintain all of the bonds and insurance required of such party by the Contract Documents, such party shall notify the other party in writing of such failure to purchase prior to the start of the Work, or of such failure to maintain prior to any change in the required coverage. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy, the other party may elect to obtain equivalent bonds or insurance to protect such other party’s interests at the expense of the party who was required to provide such coverage, and a Change Order shall be issued to adjust the Contract Price accordingly. 5.10 Partial Utilization, Acknowledgment of Property Insurer A. If Owner finds it necessary to occupy or use a portion or portions of the Work prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work as provided in Paragraph 14.05, no such use or occupancy shall commence before the insurers providing the property insurance pursuant to Paragraph 5.06 have acknowledged notice thereof and in writing effected any changes in coverage necessitated thereby. The insurers providing the property insurance shall consent by endorsement on the policy or policies, but the property insurance shall not be canceled or permitted to lapse on account of any such partial use or occupancy.

All rights reserved. Page 25 of 67 6.05 Substitutes and “Or-Equals” A. Whenever an item of material or equipment is specified or described in the Contract Documents by using the name of a proprietary item or the name of a particular Supplier, the specification or description is intended to establish the type, function, appearance, and quality required. Unless the specification or description contains or is followed by words reading that no like, equivalent, or “or-equal” item or no substitution is permitted, other items of material or equipment or material or equipment of other Suppliers may be submitted to Engineer for review under the circumstances described below. 1. “Or-Equal” Items: If in Engineer’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by Contractor is functionally equal to that named and sufficiently similar so that no change in related Work will be required, it may be considered by Engineer as an “or-equal” item, in which case review and approval of the proposed item may, in Engineer’s sole discretion, be accomplished without compliance with some or all of the requirements for approval of proposed substitute items. For the purposes of this Paragraph 6.05.A.1, a proposed item of material or equipment will be considered functionally equal to an item so named if: a. in the exercise of reasonable judgment Engineer determines that: 1) it is at least equal in materials of construction, quality, durability, appearance, strength, and design characteristics; 2) it will reliably perform at least equally well the function and achieve the results imposed by the design concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole; and 3) it has a proven record of performance and availability of responsive service. b. Contractor certifies that, if approved and incorporated into the Work: 1) there will be no increase in cost to the Owner or increase in Contract Times; and 2) it will conform substantially to the detailed requirements of the item named in the Contract Documents. 2. Substitute Items: a. If in Engineer’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by Contractor does not qualify as an “or-equal” item under Paragraph 6.05.A.1, it will be considered a proposed substitute item. b. Contractor shall submit sufficient information as provided below to allow Engineer to determine if the item of material or equipment proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and an acceptable substitute therefor. Requests for review of proposed substitute items of material or equipment will not be accepted by Engineer from anyone other than Contractor. 198 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 26 of 67 c. The requirements for review by Engineer will be as set forth in Paragraph 6.05.A.2.d, as supplemented by the General Requirements, and as Engineer may decide is appropriate under the circumstances. d. Contractor shall make written application to Engineer for review of a proposed substitute item of material or equipment that Contractor seeks to furnish or use. The application: 1) shall certify that the proposed substitute item will: a) perform adequately the functions and achieve the results called for by the general design, b) be similar in substance to that specified, and c) be suited to the same use as that specified; 2) will state: a) the extent, if any, to which the use of the proposed substitute item will prejudice delay Contractor’s achievement of Substantial Completion on time, b) whether use of the proposed substitute item in the Work will require a change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with Owner for other work on the Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute item, and c) whether incorporation or use of the proposed substitute item in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or royalty; 3) will identify: a) all variations of the proposed substitute item from that specified, and b) available engineering, sales, maintenance, repair, and replacement services; and 4) shall contain an itemized estimate of all costs or credits that will result directly or indirectly from use of such substitute item, including costs of redesign and claims of other contractors affected by any resulting change. B. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a specific means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure of construction is expressly required by the Contract Documents, Contractor may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure of construction approved by Engineer. Contractor shall submit sufficient information to allow Engineer, in Engineer’s sole discretion, to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly called for by the Contract Documents. The requirements for review by Engineer will be similar to those provided in Paragraph 6.05.A.2. C. Engineer’s Evaluation: Engineer will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposal or submittal made pursuant to Paragraphs 6.05.A and 6.05.B. Engineer may require Contractor to furnish additional data about the proposed substitute item. Engineer will be the sole 199 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 27 of 67 judge of acceptability. No “or equal” or substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized until Engineer’s review is complete, which will be evidenced by a Change Order in the case of a substitute and an approved Shop Drawing for an “or equal.” Engineer will advise Contractor in writing of any negative determination. D. Special Guarantee: Owner may require Contractor to furnish at Contractor’s expense a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute. E. Engineer’s Cost Reimbursement: Engineer will record Engineer’s costs in evaluating a substitute proposed or submitted by Contractor pursuant to Paragraphs 6.05.A.2 and 6.05.B. Whether or not Engineer approves a substitute so proposed or submitted by Contractor, Contractor shall reimburse Owner for the reasonable charges of Engineer for evaluating each such proposed substitute. Contractor shall also reimburse Owner for the reasonable charges of Engineer for making changes in the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with Owner) resulting from the acceptance of each proposed substitute. F. Contractor’s Expense: Contractor shall provide all data in support of any proposed substitute or “or-equal” at Contractor’s expense. 6.06 Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others A. Contractor shall not employ any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity (including those acceptable to Owner as indicated in Paragraph 6.06.B), whether initially or as a replacement, against whom Owner may have reasonable objection. Contractor shall not be required to employ any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity to furnish or perform any of the Work against whom Contractor has reasonable objection. B. If the Supplementary Conditions require the identity of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals or entities to be submitted to Owner in advance for acceptance by Owner by a specified date prior to the Effective Date of the Agreement, and if Contractor has submitted a list thereof in accordance with the Supplementary Conditions, Owner’s acceptance (either in writing or by failing to make written objection thereto by the date indicated for acceptance or objection in the Bidding Documents or the Contract Documents) of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity so identified may be revoked on the basis of reasonable objection after due investigation. Contractor shall submit an acceptable replacement for the rejected Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity, and the Contract Price will be adjusted by the difference in the cost occasioned by such replacement, and an appropriate Change Order will be issued. No acceptance by Owner of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity, whether initially or as a replacement, shall constitute a waiver of any right of Owner or Engineer to reject defective Work. C. Contractor shall be fully responsible to Owner and Engineer for all acts and omissions of the Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities performing or furnishing any of the Work just as Contractor is responsible for Contractor’s own acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract Documents: 1. shall create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity any contractual relationship between Owner or Engineer and any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other individual or entity; nor 200 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 28 of 67 2. shall create any obligation on the part of Owner or Engineer to pay or to see to the payment of any moneys due any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity except as may otherwise be required by Laws and Regulations. D. Contractor shall be solely responsible for scheduling and coordinating the Work of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities performing or furnishing any of the Work under a direct or indirect contract with Contractor. E. Contractor shall require all Subcontractors, Suppliers, and such other individuals or entities performing or furnishing any of the Work to communicate with Engineer through Contractor. F. The divisions and sections of the Specifications and the identifications of any Drawings shall not control Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or Suppliers or delineating the Work to be performed by any specific trade. G. All Work performed for Contractor by a Subcontractor or Supplier will be pursuant to an appropriate agreement between Contractor and the Subcontractor or Supplier which specifically binds the Subcontractor or Supplier to the applicable terms and conditions of the Contract Documents for the benefit of Owner and Engineer. Whenever any such agreement is with a Subcontractor or Supplier who is listed as a loss payee on the property insurance provided in Paragraph 5.06, the agreement between the Contractor and the Subcontractor or Supplier will contain provisions whereby the Subcontractor or Supplier waives all rights against Owner, Contractor, Engineer, and all other individuals or entities identified in the Supplementary Conditions to be listed as insureds or loss payees (and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors of each and any of them) for all losses and damages caused by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from any of the perils or causes of loss covered by such policies and any other property insurance applicable to the Work. If the insurers on any such policies require separate waiver forms to be signed by any Subcontractor or Supplier, Contractor will obtain the same. 6.07 Patent Fees and Royalties A. Contractor shall pay all license fees and royalties and assume all costs incident to the use in the performance of the Work or the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process, product, or device which is the subject of patent rights or copyrights held by others. If a particular invention, design, process, product, or device is specified in the Contract Documents for use in the performance of the Work and if, to the actual knowledge of Owner or Engineer, its use is subject to patent rights or copyrights calling for the payment of any license fee or royalty to others, the existence of such rights shall be disclosed by Owner in the Contract Documents. B. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor, and its officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors from and against all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals, and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to any infringement of patent rights or copyrights incident to the use in the performance of the Work or resulting from the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process, product, or device specified in the Contract Documents, but not identified 201 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 29 of 67 as being subject to payment of any license fee or royalty to others required by patent rights or copyrights. C. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless Owner and Engineer, and the officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants and subcontractors of each and any of them from and against all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to any infringement of patent rights or copyrights incident to the use in the performance of the Work or resulting from the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process, product, or device not specified in the Contract Documents. 6.08 Permits A. Unless otherwise provided in the Supplementary Conditions, Contractor Owner shall obtain and pay for all construction permits and licenses. Owner shall assist Contractor, when necessary, in obtaining such permits and licenses. Contractor shall pay all governmental charges and inspection fees necessary for the prosecution of the Work which are applicable at the time of opening of Bids, or, if there are no Bids, on the Effective Date of the Agreement. Owner shall pay all charges of utility owners for connections for providing permanent service to the Work. 6.09 Laws and Regulations A. Contractor shall give all notices required by and shall comply with all Laws and Regulations applicable to the performance of the Work. Except where otherwise expressly required by applicable Laws and Regulations, neither Owner nor Engineer shall be responsible for monitoring Contractor’s compliance with any Laws or Regulations. B. If Contractor performs any Work knowing or having reason to know that it is contrary to Laws or Regulations, Contractor shall bear all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such Work. However, it shall not be Contractor’s responsibility to make certain that the Specifications and Drawings are in accordance with Laws and Regulations, but this shall not relieve Contractor of Contractor’s obligations under Paragraph 3.03. C. Changes in Laws or Regulations not known at the time of opening of Bids (or, on the Effective Date of the Agreement if there were no Bids) having an effect on the cost or time of performance of the Work shall be the subject of an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times. If Owner and Contractor are unable to agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of any such adjustment, a Claim may be made therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. 6.10 Taxes A. Contractor shall pay all sales, consumer, use, and other similar taxes required to be paid by Contractor in accordance with the Laws and Regulations of the place of the Project which are applicable during the performance of the Work. 202 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 30 of 67 B. Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 105-164.14, Owner is eligible for sales and use tax refunds on all materials which become a permanent part of the construction. Contractor agrees to provide Owner such documentation as may be necessary to meet the requirements of the North Carolina Department of Revenue regarding requests for refund of sales and use taxes. Such requirements include those described in the North Carolina Department of Revenue Sales and Use Tax Technical Bulletins § 18-2(F), outlined below: 1. To substantiate a refund claim for sales or use taxes paid on purchases of building materials, supplies, fixtures, and equipment by a contracor, Owner must secure from a contractor certified statements setting forth the specific required information. A “certified statement” is a statement signed by a contractor’s owner, a corporate officer of a contractor, or an employee of a contractor who is authorized to provide information set forth in the statement. The certified statement must include all of the following information: a. The date the property was purchased; b. The type of property purchased; c. The cost of property purchased and the amount of sales and use taxed paid thereon; d. The vendor from whom the property was purchased; e. The project for which the property was purchased; f. If the property was purchased in the State of North Carolina, the county to which it was delivered, or, if the property was not purchased in the State of North Carolina, the county in which the property was used; and g. The invoice number of the purchase. 2. In the event Contractor makes several purchases from the same vendor, such certified statement must indicate the invoice numbers, the inclusive dates of the invoices, the total amount of the invoices, and the State and local sales and use taxes paid thereon. Such statement must also include the cost of any tangible personal property withdrawn from Contractor’s warehouse stock and the amount of State and local sales or use tax paid thereon by Contractor. Any local sales or use taxes included in Contractor’s statements must be shown separately from the State sales or use taxes. Contractor’s statements must not contain sales or use taxes paid on purchases of tangible personal property purchased by Contractor for use in performing the Contract which does not annex to, affix to or in some manner become a part of the building or structure that is owned or leased by a governmental agency and is being erected, altered or repaired for use by a governmental entity as defined by N.C.G.S. § 105-164.14(c). Examples of property on which sales or use tax has been paid by Contractor and which shall not be included in Contractor’s certified statement are scaffolding, forms for concrete, fuel for the operation of machinery and equipment, tools, equipment, equipment repair parts and equipment rentals. Similar certified statements by Subcontractors must be obtained by Contractor and furnished to Owner. 203 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC.

These record documents together with all approved Samples and a counterpart of all approved Shop Drawings will be available to Engineer for reference. Upon completion of the Work, these record documents, Samples, and Shop Drawings will be delivered to Engineer for Owner. 6.13 Safety and Protection A. Contractor shall be solely responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work. Such responsibility does not relieve Subcontractors of their responsibility for the safety of persons or property in the performance of their work, nor for compliance with applicable safety Laws and Regulations. Contractor shall take all necessary precautions for the safety of, and shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to: 1. all persons on the Site or who may be affected by the Work; 2. all the Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage on or off the Site; and 3. other property at the Site or adjacent thereto, including trees, shrubs, lawns, walks, pavements, roadways, structures, utilities, and Underground Facilities not designated for removal, relocation, or replacement in the course of construction.

E. All damage, injury, or loss to any property referred to in Paragraph 6.13.A.2 or 6.13.A.3 caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by Contractor, any Subcontractor, Supplier, or any other individual or entity directly or indirectly employed by any of them to perform any of the Work, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, shall be remedied by Contractor (except damage or loss attributable to the fault of Drawings or Specifications or to the acts or omissions of Owner or Engineer or anyone employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, and not attributable, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to the fault or negligence of Contractor or any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity directly or indirectly employed by any of them). 205 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 33 of 67 F. Contractor’s duties and responsibilities for safety and for protection of the Work shall continue until such time as all the Work is completed and Engineer has issued a notice to Owner and Contractor in accordance with Paragraph 14.07.B that the Work is acceptable (except as otherwise expressly provided in connection with Substantial Completion). 6.14 Safety Representative A. Contractor shall designate a qualified and experienced safety representative at the Site whose duties and responsibilities shall be the prevention of accidents and the maintaining and supervising of safety precautions and programs. 6.15 Hazard Communication Programs A.

Contractor believes that Contractor is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of having incurred additional expense or Owner believes that Owner is entitled to a decrease in Contract Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any such increase or decrease. 221 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 49 of 67 ARTICLE 12 – CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE; CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIMES 12.01 Change of Contract Price A. The Contract Price may only be changed by a Change Order. Any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price shall be based on written notice submitted by the party making the Claim to the Engineer and the other party to the Contract in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 10.05. No change in the Contract Price will be approved for defective pricing upon Bid submission and award, or errors in bidding. B. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order or of any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will be determined as follows: 1. where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by application of such unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 11.03); or 2. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by a mutually agreed lump sum (which may include an allowance for overhead and profit not necessarily in accordance with Paragraph 12.01.C.2); or 3. where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and agreement to a lump sum is not reached under Paragraph 12.01.B.2, on the basis of the Cost of the Work (determined as provided in Paragraph 11.01) plus a Contractor’s fee for overhead and profit (determined as provided in Paragraph 12.01.C). C. Contractor’s Fee: The Contractor’s fee for overhead and profit shall be determined as follows: 1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or 2. if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a fee based on the following percentages of the various portions of the Cost of the Work: a. for costs incurred under Paragraphs 11.01.A.1 and 11.01.A.2, the Contractor’s fee shall be 15 percent; b. for costs incurred under Paragraph 11.01.A.3, the Contractor’s fee shall be five percent; c. where one or more tiers of subcontracts are on the basis of Cost of the Work plus a fee and no fixed fee is agreed upon, the intent of Paragraphs 12.01.C.2.a and 12.01.C.2.b is that the Subcontractor who actually performs the Work, at whatever tier, will be paid a fee of 15 percent of the costs incurred by such Subcontractor under Paragraphs 11.01.A.1 and 11.01.A.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor and Contractor will each be paid a fee of five percent of the amount paid to the next lower tier Subcontractor; d. no fee shall be payable on the basis of costs itemized under Paragraphs 11.01.A.4, 11.01.A.5, and 11.01.B; 222 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 50 of 67 e. the amount of credit to be allowed by Contractor to Owner for any change which results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease in cost plus a deduction in Contractor’s fee by an amount equal to five percent of such net decrease; and f. when both additions and credits are involved in any one change, the adjustment in Contractor’s fee shall be computed on the basis of the net change in accordance with Paragraphs 12.01.C.2.a through 12.01.C.2.e, inclusive. 12.02 Change of Contract Times A. The Contract Times may only be changed by a Change Order. Any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Times shall be based on written notice submitted by the party making the Claim to the Engineer and the other party to the Contract in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 10.05. B. Any adjustment of the Contract Times covered by a Change Order or any Claim for an adjustment in the Contract Times will be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Article 12. 12.03 Delays A. Where Contractor is prevented from completing any part of the Work within the Contract Times due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Times will be extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a Claim is made therefor as provided in Paragraph 12.02.A. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts or neglect by Owner, acts or neglect of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, or acts of God. B. If Owner, Engineer, or other contractors or utility owners performing other work for Owner as contemplated by Article 7, or anyone for whom Owner is responsible, delays, disrupts, or interferes with the performance or progress of the Work, then Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Times, or both. Contractor’s entitlement to an adjustment of the Contract Times is conditioned on such adjustment being essential to Contractor’s ability to complete the Work within the Contract Times. C. If Contractor is delayed in the performance or progress of the Work by fire, flood, epidemic, abnormal weather conditions, acts of God, acts or failures to act of utility owners not under the control of Owner, or other causes not the fault of and beyond control of Owner and Contractor, then Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in Contract Times, if such adjustment is essential to Contractor’s ability to complete the Work within the Contract Times. Such an adjustment shall be Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedy for the delays described in this Paragraph 12.03.C. D. Owner, Engineer, and their officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, or subcontractors shall not be liable to Contractor for any claims, costs, losses, or damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by Contractor on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project. 223 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 51 of 67 E. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times for delays within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor. ARTICLE 13 – TESTS AND INSPECTIONS; CORRECTION, REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK 13.01 Notice of Defects A. Prompt notice of all defective Work of which Owner or Engineer has actual knowledge will be given to Contractor. Defective Work may be rejected, corrected, or accepted as provided in this Article 13. 13.02 Access to Work A. Owner, Engineer, their consultants and other representatives and personnel of Owner, independent testing laboratories, and governmental agencies with jurisdictional interests will have access to the Site and the Work at reasonable times for their observation, inspection, and testing. Contractor shall provide them proper and safe conditions for such access and advise them of Contractor’s safety procedures and programs so that they may comply therewith as applicable. 13.03 Tests and Inspections A. Contractor shall give Engineer timely notice of readiness of the Work for all required inspections, tests, or approvals and shall cooperate with inspection and testing personnel to facilitate required inspections or tests. B. Owner shall employ and pay for the services of an independent testing laboratory to perform all inspections, tests, or approvals required by the Contract Documents except: 1. for inspections, tests, or approvals covered by Paragraphs 13.03.C and 13.03.D below; 2. that costs incurred in connection with tests or inspections conducted pursuant to Paragraph 13.04.B shall be paid as provided in Paragraph 13.04.C; and 3. as otherwise specifically provided in the Contract Documents. C. If Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction require any Work (or part thereof) specifically to be inspected, tested, or approved by an employee or other representative of such public body, Contractor shall assume full responsibility for arranging and obtaining such inspections, tests, or approvals, pay all costs in connection therewith, and furnish Engineer the required certificates of inspection or approval. D. Contractor shall be responsible for arranging and obtaining and shall pay all costs in connection with any inspections, tests, or approvals required for Owner’s and Engineer’s acceptance of materials or equipment to be incorporated in the Work; or acceptance of materials, mix designs, or equipment submitted for approval prior to Contractor’s purchase thereof for incorporation in the Work. Such inspections, tests, or approvals shall be performed by organizations acceptable to Owner and Engineer. 224 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 52 of 67 E. If any Work (or the work of others) that is to be inspected, tested, or approved is covered by Contractor without written concurrence of Engineer, Contractor shall, if requested by Engineer, uncover such Work for observation. F. Uncovering Work as provided in Paragraph 13.03.E shall be at Contractor’s expense unless Contractor has given Engineer timely notice of Contractor’s intention to cover the same and Engineer has not acted with reasonable promptness in response to such notice. 13.04 Uncovering Work A. If any Work is covered contrary to the written request of Engineer, it must, if requested by Engineer, be uncovered for Engineer’s observation and replaced at Contractor’s expense. B. If Engineer considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by Engineer or inspected or tested by others, Contractor, at Engineer’s request, shall uncover, expose, or otherwise make available for observation, inspection, or testing as Engineer may require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor, material, and equipment. C. If it is found that the uncovered Work is defective, Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, and testing, and of satisfactory replacement or reconstruction (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others); and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price. If the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, Owner may make a Claim therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. D. If the uncovered Work is not found to be defective, Contractor shall be allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection, testing, replacement, and reconstruction. If the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or extent thereof, Contractor may make a Claim therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. 13.05 Owner May Stop the Work A. If the Work is defective, or Contractor fails to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment, or fails to perform the Work in such a way that the completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents, Owner may order Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor, any Subcontractor, any Supplier, any other individual or entity, or any surety for, or employee or agent of any of them. 13.06 Correction or Removal of Defective Work A. Promptly after receipt of written notice, Contractor shall correct all defective Work, whether or not fabricated, installed, or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by Engineer, remove it from the Project and replace it with Work that is not defective. Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, 225 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 53 of 67 architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such correction or removal (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others). B. When correcting defective Work under the terms of this Paragraph 13.06 or Paragraph 13.07, Contractor shall take no action that would void or otherwise impair Owner’s special warranty and guarantee, if any, on said Work. 13.07 Correction Period A. If within one year after the date of Substantial Completion (or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents) or by any specific provision of the Contract Documents, any Work is found to be defective, or if the repair of any damages to the land or areas made available for Contractor’s use by Owner or permitted by Laws and Regulations as contemplated in Paragraph 6.11.A is found to be defective, Contractor shall promptly, without cost to Owner and in accordance with Owner’s written instructions: 1. repair such defective land or areas; or 2. correct such defective Work; or 3. if the defective Work has been rejected by Owner, remove it from the Project and replace it with Work that is not defective, and 4. satisfactorily correct or repair or remove and replace any damage to other Work, to the work of others or other land or areas resulting therefrom. B. If Contractor does not promptly comply with the terms of Owner’s written instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, Owner may have the defective Work corrected or repaired or may have the rejected Work removed and replaced. All claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) arising out of or relating to such correction or repair or such removal and replacement (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid by Contractor. C. In special circumstances where a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service before Substantial Completion of all the Work, the correction period for that item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided in the Specifications. D. Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected or removed and replaced under this Paragraph 13.07, the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work will be extended for an additional period of one year after such correction or removal and replacement has been satisfactorily completed. E. Contractor’s obligations under this Paragraph 13.07 are in addition to any other obligation or warranty. The provisions of this Paragraph 13.07 shall not be construed as a substitute for, or a waiver of, the provisions of any applicable statute of limitation or repose. 226 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 54 of 67 13.08 Acceptance of Defective Work A. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, Owner (and, prior to Engineer’s recommendation of final payment, Engineer) prefers to accept it, Owner may do so. Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) attributable to Owner’s evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by Engineer as to reasonableness) and for the diminished value of the Work to the extent not otherwise paid by Contractor pursuant to this sentence. If any such acceptance occurs prior to Engineer’s recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work, and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, reflecting the diminished value of Work so accepted. If the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, Owner may make a Claim therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. If the acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate amount will be paid by Contractor to Owner. 13.09 Owner May Correct Defective Work A. If Contractor fails within a reasonable time fourteen (14) calendar days after written notice from Engineer to correct defective Work, or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by Engineer in accordance with Paragraph 13.06.A, or if Contractor fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, or if Contractor fails to comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents, Owner may, after seven fourteen (14) calendar days written notice to Contractor, correct, or remedy any such deficiency. If additional time is required due to unforeseen circumstances, a written notice is required detailing the circumstances and delay within seven (7) days of written notice from Engineer. B. In exercising the rights and remedies under this Paragraph 13.09, Owner shall proceed expeditiously. In connection with such corrective or remedial action, Owner may exclude Contractor from all or part of the Site, take possession of all or part of the Work and suspend Contractor’s services related thereto, take possession of Contractor’s tools, appliances, construction equipment and machinery at the Site, and incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for which Owner has paid Contractor but which are stored elsewhere. Contractor shall allow Owner, Owner’s representatives, agents and employees, Owner’s other contractors, and Engineer and Engineer’s consultants access to the Site to enable Owner to exercise the rights and remedies under this Paragraph. C. All claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) incurred or sustained by Owner in exercising the rights and remedies under this Paragraph 13.09 will be charged against Contractor, and a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and Owner shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price. If the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of the adjustment, Owner may make a Claim therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. Such claims, costs, losses and damages will include but not be limited to all costs of repair, or replacement of work of others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal, or replacement of Contractor’s defective Work. 227 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 55 of 67 D. Contractor shall not be allowed an extension of the Contract Times because of any delay in the performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by Owner of Owner’s rights and remedies under this Paragraph 13.09. ARTICLE 14 – PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION 14.01 Schedule of Values A. The Schedule of Values established as provided in Paragraph 2.07.A will serve as the basis for progress payments and will be incorporated into a form of Application for Payment acceptable to Engineer. Progress payments on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units completed. 14.02 Progress Payments A. Applications for Payments: 1. At least 20 days before the date established in the Agreement for each progress payment (but not more often than once a month), Contractor shall submit to Engineer for review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by Contractor covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the Contract Documents. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably stored at the Site or at another location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice, or other documentation warranting that Owner has received the materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by appropriate property insurance or other arrangements to protect Owner’s interest therein, all of which must be satisfactory to Owner. 2. Beginning with the second Application for Payment, each Application shall include an affidavit of Contractor stating that all previous progress payments received on account of the Work have been applied on account to discharge Contractor’s legitimate obligations associated with prior Applications for Payment. 3. The amount of retainage with respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the Agreement. B. Review of Applications: 1. Engineer will, within 10 fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a recommendation of payment and present the Application to Owner or return the Application to Contractor indicating in writing Engineer’s reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. 2. Engineer’s recommendation of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a representation by Engineer to Owner, based on Engineer’s observations of the executed Work as an experienced and qualified design professional, and on Engineer’s review 228 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 56 of 67 of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of Engineer’s knowledge, information and belief: a. the Work has progressed to the point indicated; b. the quality of the Work is generally in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Substantial Completion, the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, a final determination of quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work under Paragraph 9.07, and any other qualifications stated in the recommendation); and c. the conditions precedent to Contractor’s being entitled to such payment appear to have been fulfilled in so far as it is Engineer’s responsibility to observe the Work. 3. By recommending any such payment Engineer will not thereby be deemed to have represented that: a. inspections made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work as it has been performed have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to Engineer in the Contract Documents; or b. there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor to be paid additionally by Owner or entitle Owner to withhold payment to Contractor. 4. Neither Engineer’s review of Contractor’s Work for the purposes of recommending payments nor Engineer’s recommendation of any payment, including final payment, will impose responsibility on Engineer: a. to supervise, direct, or control the Work, or b. for the means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of construction, or the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, or c. for Contractor’s failure to comply with Laws and Regulations applicable to Contractor’s performance of the Work, or d. to make any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes Contractor has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or e. to determine that title to any of the Work, materials, or equipment has passed to Owner free and clear of any Liens. 5. Engineer may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment if, in Engineer’s opinion, it would be incorrect to make the representations to Owner stated in Paragraph 14.02.B.2. Engineer may also refuse to recommend any such payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, revise or revoke any such payment recommendation previously made, to such extent as may be necessary in Engineer’s opinion to protect Owner from loss because: 229 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 57 of 67 a. the Work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged, requiring correction or replacement; b. the Contract Price has been reduced by Change Orders; c. Owner has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with Paragraph 13.09; or d. Engineer has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in Paragraph 15.02.A. C. Payment Becomes Due: 1. Ten Thirty (30) days after presentation of the Application for Payment to Owner with Engineer’s recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 14.02.D) become due, and when due will be paid by Owner to Contractor. D. Reduction in Payment: 1. Owner may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by Engineer because: a. claims have been made against Owner on account of Contractor’s performance or furnishing of the Work; b. Liens (whether or not permissible) have been filed in connection with the Work, except where Contractor has delivered a specific bond satisfactory to Owner to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens; c. there are other items entitling Owner to a set-off against the amount recommended including but not limited to liquidated damages; or d. Owner has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in Paragraphs 14.02.B.5.a through 14.02.B.5.c or Paragraph 15.02.A. 2. If Owner refuses to make payment of the full amount recommended by Engineer, Owner will give Contractor immediate written notice (with a copy to Engineer) stating the reasons for such action and promptly pay Contractor any amount remaining after deduction of the amount so withheld. Owner shall promptly pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to by Owner and Contractor, when Contractor remedies the reasons for such action. 3. Upon a subsequent determination that Owner’s refusal of payment was not justified, the amount wrongfully withheld shall be treated as an amount due as determined by Paragraph 14.02.C.1 and subject to interest as provided in the Agreement. 14.03 Contractor’s Warranty of Title A. Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to Owner no later than the time of payment free and clear of all Liens. 230 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 58 of 67 14.04 Substantial Completion A. When Contractor considers the entire Work ready for its intended use Contractor shall notify Owner and Engineer in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by Contractor as incomplete) and request that Engineer issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. B. Promptly after Contractor’s notification, Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If Engineer does not consider the Work substantially complete, Engineer will notify Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefor. C. If Engineer considers the Work substantially complete, Engineer will deliver to Owner a tentative preliminary certificate of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or corrected before final payment. Owner shall have seven days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which to make written objection to Engineer as to any provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objections, Engineer concludes that the Work is not substantially complete, Engineer will, within 14 days after submission of the tentative certificate to Owner, notify Contractor in writing, stating the reasons therefor. If, after consideration of Owner’s objections, Engineer considers the Work substantially complete, Engineer will, within said 14 days, execute and deliver to Owner and Contractor a definitive final certificate of Substantial Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the tentative certificate as Engineer believes justified after consideration of any objections from Owner. D. At the time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial Completion, Engineer will deliver to Owner and Contractor a written recommendation as to division of responsibilities pending final payment between Owner and Contractor with respect to security, operation, safety, and protection of the Work, maintenance, heat, utilities, insurance, and warranties and guarantees. Unless Owner and Contractor agree otherwise in writing and so inform Engineer in writing prior to Engineer’s issuing the definitive certificate of Substantial Completion, Engineer’s aforesaid recommendation will be binding on Owner and Contractor until final payment. E. Owner shall have the right to exclude Contractor from the Site after the date of Substantial Completion subject to allowing Contractor reasonable access to remove its property and complete or correct items on the tentative list. 14.05 Partial Utilization A. Prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work, Owner may use or occupy any substantially completed part of the Work which has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or which Owner, Engineer, and Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by Owner for its intended purpose without significant interference with Contractor’s performance of the remainder of the Work, subject to the following conditions: 1. Owner at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit Owner to use or occupy any such part of the Work which Owner believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If and when Contractor agrees that such part of the Work is substantially complete, 231 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 59 of 67 Contractor, Owner, and Engineer will follow the procedures of Paragraph 14.04.A through D for that part of the Work. 2. Contractor at any time may notify Owner and Engineer in writing that Contractor considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and request Engineer to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. 3. Within a reasonable time after either such request, Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If Engineer does not consider that part of the Work to be substantially complete, Engineer will notify Owner and Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefor. If Engineer considers that part of the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions of Paragraph 14.04 will apply with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of that part of the Work and the division of responsibility in respect thereof and access thereto. 4. No use or occupancy or separate operation of part of the Work may occur prior to compliance with the requirements of Paragraph 5.10 regarding property insurance. 14.06 Final Inspection A. Upon written notice from Contractor that the entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete, Engineer will promptly make a final inspection with Owner and Contractor and will notify Contractor in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. Contractor shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to complete such Work or remedy such deficiencies. 14.07 Final Payment A. Application for Payment: 1. After Contractor has, in the opinion of Engineer, satisfactorily completed all corrections identified during the final inspection and has delivered, in accordance with the Contract Documents, all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance, certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents (as provided in Paragraph 6.12), and other documents, Contractor may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments. 2. The final Application for Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously delivered) by: a. all documentation called for in the Contract Documents, including but not limited to the evidence of insurance required by Paragraph 5.04.B.6; b. consent of the surety, if any, to final payment; c. a list of all Claims against Owner that Contractor believes are unsettled; and d. complete and legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to Owner) of all Lien rights arising out of or Liens filed in connection with the Work. 232 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 60 of 67 3. In lieu of the releases or waivers of Liens specified in Paragraph 14.07.A.2 and as approved by Owner, Contractor may furnish receipts or releases in full and an affidavit of Contractor that: (i) the releases and receipts include all labor, services, material, and equipment for which a Lien could be filed; and (ii) all payrolls, material and equipment bills, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which Owner might in any way be responsible, or which might in any way result in liens or other burdens on Owner's property, have been paid or otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor or Supplier fails to furnish such a release or receipt in full, Contractor may furnish a bond or other collateral satisfactory to Owner to indemnify Owner against any Lien. B. Engineer’s Review of Application and Acceptance: 1. If, on the basis of Engineer’s observation of the Work during construction and final inspection, and Engineer’s review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying documentation as required by the Contract Documents, Engineer is satisfied that the Work has been completed and Contractor’s other obligations under the Contract Documents have been fulfilled, Engineer will, within ten days after receipt of the final Application for Payment, indicate in writing Engineer’s recommendation of payment and present the Application for Payment to Owner for payment. At the same time Engineer will also give written notice to Owner and Contractor that the Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of Paragraph 14.09. Otherwise, Engineer will return the Application for Payment to Contractor, indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend final payment, in which case Contractor shall make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application for Payment. C. Payment Becomes Due: 1. Thirty days after the presentation to Owner of the Application for Payment and accompanying documentation, the amount recommended by Engineer, less any sum Owner is entitled to set off against Engineer’s recommendation, including but not limited to liquidated damages, will become due and will be paid by Owner to Contractor. 14.08 Final Completion Delayed A. If, through no fault of Contractor, final completion of the Work is significantly delayed, and if Engineer so confirms, Owner shall, upon receipt of Contractor’s final Application for Payment (for Work fully completed and accepted) and recommendation of Engineer, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be held by Owner for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agreement, and if bonds have been furnished as required in Paragraph 5.01, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by Contractor to Engineer with the Application for such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of Claims. 14.09 Waiver of Claims A. The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute: 233 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 61 of 67 1. a waiver of all Claims by Owner against Contractor, except Claims arising from unsettled Liens, from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursuant to Paragraph 14.06, from failure to comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees specified therein, or from Contractor’s continuing obligations under the Contract Documents; and 2. a waiver of all Claims by Contractor against Owner other than those previously made in accordance with the requirements herein and expressly acknowledged by Owner in writing as still unsettled. ARTICLE 15 – SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION 15.01 Owner May Suspend Work A. At any time and without cause, Owner may suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more than 90 consecutive days by notice in writing to Contractor and Engineer which will fix the date on which Work will be resumed. Contractor shall resume the Work on the date so fixed. Contractor shall be granted an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to any such suspension if Contractor makes a Claim therefor as provided in Paragraph 10.05. 15.02 Owner May Terminate for Cause A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events will justify termination for cause: 1. Contractor’s persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment or failure to adhere to the Progress Schedule established under Paragraph 2.07 as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04); 2. Contractor’s disregard of Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction; 3. Contractor’s repeated disregard of the authority of Engineer; or 4. Contractor’s violation in any substantial way of any provisions of the Contract Documents. B. If one or more of the events identified in Paragraph 15.02.A occur, Owner may, after giving Contractor (and surety) seven days written notice of its intent to terminate the services of Contractor: 1. exclude Contractor from the Site, and take possession of the Work and of all Contractor’s tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery at the Site, and use the same to the full extent they could be used by Contractor (without liability to Contractor for trespass or conversion); 2. incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for which Owner has paid Contractor but which are stored elsewhere; and 3. complete the Work as Owner may deem expedient. 234 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 62 of 67 C. If Owner proceeds as provided in Paragraph 15.02.B, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is completed. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by Owner arising out of or relating to completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses, and damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to Owner. Such claims, costs, losses, and damages incurred by Owner will be reviewed by Engineer as to their reasonableness and, when so approved by Engineer, incorporated in a Change Order. When exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, Owner shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. D. Notwithstanding Paragraphs 15.02.B and 15.02.C, Contractor’s services will not be terminated if Contractor begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice. E. Where Contractor’s services have been so terminated by Owner, the termination will not affect any rights or remedies of Owner against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by Owner will not release Contractor from liability. F. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of Paragraph 5.01.A, the termination procedures of that bond shall supersede the provisions of Paragraphs 15.02.B and 15.02.C. 15.03 Owner May Terminate For Convenience A. Upon seven days written notice to Contractor and Engineer, Owner may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Owner, terminate the Contract. In such case, Contractor shall be paid for (without duplication of any items): 1. completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents prior to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such Work; 2. expenses sustained prior to the effective date of termination in performing services and furnishing labor, materials, or equipment as required by the Contract Documents in connection with uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such expenses; 3. all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) incurred in settlement of terminated contracts with Subcontractors, Suppliers, and others; and 4. reasonable expenses directly attributable to termination. B. Contractor shall not be paid on account of loss of anticipated profits or revenue or other economic loss arising out of or resulting from such termination. 235 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 63 of 67 15.04 Contractor May Stop Work or Terminate A. If, through no act or fault of Contractor, (i) the Work is suspended for more than 90 consecutive days by Owner or under an order of court or other public authority, or (ii) Engineer fails to act on any Application for Payment within 30 days after it is submitted, or (iii) Owner fails for 30 days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be due, then Contractor may, upon seven days written notice to Owner and Engineer, and provided Owner or Engineer do not remedy such suspension or failure within that time, terminate the Contract and recover from Owner payment on the same terms as provided in Paragraph 15.03. B. In lieu of terminating the Contract and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, if Engineer has failed to act on an Application for Payment within 30 days after it is submitted, or Owner has failed for 30 days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be due, Contractor may, seven days after written notice to Owner and Engineer, stop the Work until payment is made of all such amounts due Contractor, including interest thereon. The provisions of this Paragraph 15.04 are not intended to preclude Contractor from making a Claim under Paragraph 10.05 for an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times or otherwise for expenses or damage directly attributable to Contractor’s stopping the Work as permitted by this Paragraph. ARTICLE 16 – DISPUTE RESOLUTION 16.01 Methods and Procedures A. In accordance with N.C.G.S. § 143-128(f1), Owner and Contractor agree to use the dispute resolution process adopted by the North Carolina State Building Commission pursuant to G.S. 143-135.26(11). This dispute resolution process will be available to all parties involved in the Project including Owner, Architect, Contractor, and the first-tier and lower-tier Subcontractors, and it shall be available for any issues arising out of the Contract or construction process, provided that the amount in controversy is $15,000 or more. Contractor shall make this process available to its Subcontractors by inclusion of this provision in the Subcontractor agreements. Costs of the process will be divided between the parties to the dispute with at least one-third of the cost to be paid by Owner, if Owner is a party to the dispute. Participation in mediation concerning a dispute shall be a precondition to initiating litigation concerning the dispute. Either Owner or Contractor may request mediation of any Claim submitted to Engineer for a decision under Paragraph 10.05 before such decision becomes final and binding. The mediation will be governed by the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect as of the Effective Date of the Agreement. The request for mediation shall be submitted in writing to the American Arbitration Association and the other party to the Contract. Timely submission of the request shall stay the effect of Paragraph 10.05.E. B. Owner and Contractor shall participate in the mediation process in good faith. The process shall be concluded within 60 days of filing of the request. The date of termination of the mediation shall be determined by application of the mediation rules referenced above. C. If the Claim is not resolved by mediation, Engineer’s action under Paragraph 10.05.C or a denial pursuant to Paragraphs 10.05.C.3 or 10.05.D shall become final and binding 30 days after termination of the mediation unless, within that time period, Owner or Contractor: 236 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 64 of 67 1. elects in writing to invoke any dispute resolution process provided for in the Supplementary Conditions; or 1. agrees with the other party to submit the Claim to another dispute resolution process; or 2. gives written notice to the other party of the intent to submit the Claim to a court of competent jurisdiction. ARTICLE 17 – MISCELLANEOUS 17.01 Giving Notice A. Whenever any provision of the Contract Documents requires the giving of written notice, it will be deemed to have been validly given if: 1. delivered in person to the individual or to a member of the firm or to an officer of the corporation for whom it is intended; or 2. delivered at or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the last business address known to the giver of the notice. 17.02 Computation of Times A. When any period of time is referred to in the Contract Documents by days, it will be computed to exclude the first and include the last day of such period. If the last day of any such period falls on a Saturday or Sunday or on a day made a legal holiday by the law of the applicable jurisdiction, such day will be omitted from the computation. 17.03 Cumulative Remedies A. The duties and obligations imposed by these General Conditions and the rights and remedies available hereunder to the parties hereto are in addition to, and are not to be construed in any way as a limitation of, any rights and remedies available to any or all of them which are otherwise imposed or available by Laws or Regulations, by special warranty or guarantee, or by other provisions of the Contract Documents. The provisions of this Paragraph will be as effective as if repeated specifically in the Contract Documents in connection with each particular duty, obligation, right, and remedy to which they apply. 17.04 Survival of Obligations A. All representations, indemnifications, warranties, and guarantees made in, required by, or given in accordance with the Contract Documents, as well as all continuing obligations indicated in the Contract Documents, will survive final payment, completion, and acceptance of the Work or termination or completion of the Contract or termination of the services of Contractor. 17.05 Controlling Law A.

All rights reserved. Page 65 of 67 17.06 Headings A. Article and paragraph headings are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute parts of these General Conditions. 17.07 E-Verify A. E-Verify is the federal program operated by the United States Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies, or any successor or equivalent program, used to verify the work authorization of newly hired employees pursuant to federal law. Contractor shall ensure that Contractor and any Subcontractor performing work under this Contract: (i) uses E-Verify if required to do so; and (ii) otherwise complies with applicable law. 17.08 Iran Divestment Act A. Pursuant to Article 6E of Chapter 147 of the North Carolina General Statutes, Owner must require most entities with which it contracts, which would include Contractor under this Contract, to certify that the entity is not identified on a list created by the State Treasurer pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 147-86.58 (the “Final Divestment List”). This requirement is related to ensuring that entities with which local governments contract are not involved in investment activities in Iran. Contractor certifies that: (i) it is not listed on the Final Divestment List, and (ii) it will not utilize any Subcontractor performing work under this Contract which is listed on the Final Divestment List. 17.09 Confidentiality A. Contractor warrants and represents that Contractor shall not knowingly or negligently communicate or disclose at any time to any person or entity any information in connection with the Work or the Project (including, without limitation, information containing specific details of public security plans and arrangements or the detailed plans and drawings of public buildings and infrastructure facilities), except (i) with prior written consent of Owner, (ii) information that was in the public domain prior to the date of this Agreement, (iii) information that becomes part of the public domain by publication or otherwise not due to any unauthorized act or omission of Contractor, or (iv) as may be required to perform the Work by any applicable law, including any set of Drawings, Specifications, and other documents which Contractor is permitted to retain. Specific information shall not be deemed to fall within the scope of the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by more generic information which falls within the scope of one or more of those exceptions. Contractor shall not disclose to others that specific information was received from Owner even though it falls within the scope of one or more of those exceptions. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the existence of the Owner’s particular interests and plans in the geographical area of the Project is a type of such specific information. In the event that Contractor is required by any court of competent jurisdiction or legally constituted authority to disclose any such of Owner’s information, prior to any disclosure thereof, Contractor shall notify Owner and shall give Owner the opportunity to challenge any such disclosure order or to seek protection for those portions that it regards as confidential. 238 EJCDC C-700 Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract Copyright © 2007 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC. All rights reserved. Page 66 of 67 17.10 Severability A. The provisions hereof are severable, and should any provision be determined to be invalid, unlawful or otherwise null and void by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall not thereby be affected unless such ruling shall make further performance hereunder impossible or impose an unconscionable burden upon one of the parties. The parties shall endeavor in good faith to replace the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as practicable to that of the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions. 17.11 Minority Participation A. Because the Project entails the construction, alteration, erection, or repair of a building, Contractor shall comply with the requirements of the Guidelines for Recruitment and Selection of Minority Businesses for Participation in Union County Construction Contracts and with the representations made in the various affidavits provided pursuant to these Guidelines, such documents having been incorporated into the Contract by reference. 239 EJCDC® C-800, Guide to the Preparation of Supplementary Conditions.

GENERAL INFORMATION This document was developed to provide a uniform format for handling contract changes that affect Contract Price or Contract Times. Changes that have been initiated by a Work Change Directive must be incorporated into a subsequent Change Order if they affect Price or Times. Changes that affect Contract Price or Contract Times should be promptly covered by a Change Order. The practice of accumulating Change Orders to reduce the administrative burden may lead to unnecessary disputes. If Milestones have been listed in the Agreement, any effect of a Change Order thereon should be addressed. For supplemental instructions and minor changes not involving a change in the Contract Price or Contract Times, a Field Order should be used. B. COMPLETING THE CHANGE ORDER FORM Engineer normally initiates the form, including a description of the changes involved and attachments based upon documents and proposals submitted by Contractor, or requests from Owner, or both. Once Engineer has completed and signed the form, all copies should be sent to Owner or Contractor for approval, depending on whether the Change Order is a true order to the Contractor or the formalization of a negotiated agreement for a previously performed change. After approval by one contracting party, all copies should be sent to the other party for approval. Engineer should make distribution of executed copies after approval by both parties. If a change only applies to price or to times, cross out the part of the tabulation that does not apply.

Warning and caution signs shall be posted throughout the length of any portion of the project where traffic flow is restricted. 3.2 WEATHER DELAYS A. Extensions of Contract Time for Abnormal Weather: 1. If the basis exists for an extension of time in accordance with article 12.03 of the Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract, an extension of time on the basis of Abnormal Weather may be granted only for the number of Weather Delay Days in excess of the number of days listed as the Standard Baseline for the period of the contract. 2. In the event adverse weather other than those conditions described in Section C, “Adverse Weather and Rain Delay Days”, delays construction activity, such as temperature extremes. The baseline must be adjusted to reflect the number of expected days as described in Section D, “Development of Adverse Weather Baseline”. 3. In order to determine precipitation at the contract site the contractor shall maintain a rain gauge on site. The rain gauge should be read daily and documentation of Adverse Weather Days should be coordinated with the Engineer’s Representative. B. Standard Baseline for Average Climactic Range: 1. The Engineer has reviewed weather data available from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and determined a Standard Baseline of average climatic range for the City of Charlotte, North Carolina. In the event that the standard baseline for the construction site differs significantly from the Charlotte, North Carolina Standard Baseline it will be the Contractor’s responsibility to provide documentation of said differences. 2. Standard Baseline shall be regarded as the normal and anticipatable number calendar days for each month during which construction activity shall be expected to be prevented and suspended by cause of adverse weather. Suspension of construction activity for the number of days each month as listed in the Standard Baseline is included in the Work and is not eligible for extension of Contract Time. 3. Standard Baseline is as follows: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 8 6 6 7 5 8 7 5 6 3 5 7 C. Adverse Weather and Rain Delay Days: 1. Adverse Weather is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following conditions which prevents exterior construction activity or access to the site within twenty-four (24) hours: 261 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 00 73 00 - 9 CEC Project #352-171 a. Precipitation (rain, snow, and/or ice) in excess of two-tenths inch (0.20”) liquid measure. b. Standing snow in excess of one inch (1.00”). 2. Adverse Weather may include, if appropriate, “dry-out” or “mud” days: a. For rain days above the standard baseline, b. Only if there is a hindrance to site access or site work such as excavation, backfill, footings; and, c. At a rate no greater than 1 make-up day for each day or consecutive days of rain beyond the standard baseline that total 1.0 inch or more, liquid measure, unless specifically recommended otherwise by the Engineer. 3. A Weather Delay Day may be counted if adverse weather prevents work on the project for fifty percent (50%) or more of the Contractor’s scheduled work day, including a weekend day or holiday if the Contractor has scheduled construction activity for that day. D. Development of Adverse Weather Baseline: 1. Development of Adverse Weather Data – This is the process of collecting, compiling and analyzing the raw weather data (NOAA and other sources) that forms the baseline for estimating anticipated delays and project durations and determining the occurrence of unusually severe weather. The following actions make up the development process: a. Analyze the project scope and site geography to determine which weather parameters (temperature, precipitation, wind, etc.) are applicable. The parameters selected should present adverse conditions that could potentially delay construction activities. b. Review the technical specifications to determine the numerical values that will be assigned to each parameter in order to establish the anticipated adverse weather. Usually when two or more construction phases are affected by the same parameter, the less severe numerical value should be used (i.e. if roofing work is delayed by temperatures below 40 degrees and concrete work is delayed by temperatures below 32 degrees, then the numerical value used to define adverse weather should be 40 degrees unless some other factor renders the roofing phase insignificant in terms of schedule criticality). c. Compile the number of days per month that the anticipated weather is expected to be adverse by analysis of NOAA or other weather data. When at all possible, the last 10 years of consecutive data should be used to establish the baseline. However, in the absence of 10 years of data, a shorter period may be used. It may be necessary to extrapolate the number of calendar days that the temperature is expected to fall below the selected numerical value (say, 40 degrees) from raw data. d. Adverse weather data must be periodically updated in order to reflect changes in the 10-year averages and incorporate any necessary corrections derived from actual field experience.

GENERAL The work included in this section consists of the grading of the project area. The work includes: 1. Site clearing and off-site disposal of all debris and unsuitable material. 2. Removal of all topsoil, organically contaminated soil and existing unsuitable fill. 3. Proofrolling and grading of the property to the prescribed elevations. 4. Stockpiling or wasting on site of any excess cut material for providing acceptable material as required to obtain the desired grades. 1.2 SITE CONDITIONS A. SITE INFORMATION The boring logs and related information depict approximate subsurface conditions only at these specific locations and at the particular time designated on the logs. Subsurface conditions at other locations may differ from those reported at the boring locations. It is expressly understood that neither the Owner nor the Engineer will be responsible for interpretations or conclusions drawn from the boring data by the Contractor. The data are made available for the convenience of the Contractor. Additional test borings and other exploratory operations may be undertaken by the Contractor at his own expense provided such operations are acceptable to the Owner. See “Geotechnical Engineering Report Union County Operations Center” prepared by ECS Southeast, LLP dated August 29, 2018 for specific soils information and compaction requirements. PART 2 PRODUCTS 2.1 MATERIALS A. UNSTABLE MATERIAL 1. Organically contaminated soils must be removed from the area of grading operations. At the discretion of the Engineer, topsoil within the area to be stripped shall be stockpiled in a convenient area, selected by the Engineer, for later use in 276 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 01 00 - 2 CEC Project #352-171 planting area. All topsoil shall be graded by the Engineer as suitable and shall be stockpiled separately as directed by the Engineer in the field. 2. Soft or excessively yielding material shall be removed and replaced with inert controlled fill. B. FILL MATERIAL 1. Material to be used for fill shall be approved by the Engineer. 2. All roots, organic matter, trash, debris, and other unsuitable materials that may find their way into otherwise acceptable fill material shall be removed during the dumping and spreading operations. 3. Broken rock and boulders larger than 6” in any dimension may not be used as fill without the specific approval of the Engineer. 4. Frozen soil shall not be used for fill. 5. Fill material shall have a maximum laboratory dry weight, ASTM D-698, of at least 100 pounds per cubic foot unless specifically exempted from this requirement by the Engineer. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 PREPARATION A. SURFACE PREPARATION 1. After removal of all existing topsoil, debris, and other undesirable material, the areas which are to receive fill, which have been cut to the desired grade, or which are at the approximate required subgrade elevation without additional earthwork, should be proofrolled to locate any soft or yielding area. Proofrolling shall be done with at least four overlapping passes of a heavy-duty flat wheel vibratory roller, at least 20 tons, or by its approved equivalent. 2. Any soft, or excessively yielding material revealed by the proofrolling shall be removed and replaced with inert controlled fill. The Engineer shall be the sole judge of what constitutes soft or excessively yielding material. 3. Drainage from existing watercourses, springs or other sources should be rerouted out of the earthwork area. The Contractor shall take special care to remove all organically contaminated sediment, saturated soil, and other undesirable material from existing watercourses. B. BLASTING AND DAMAGES Where blasting is done, it shall be done by qualified personnel and in accordance with all federal, state or local requirements and procedures. The Contractor shall be responsible for any damage done to adjoining properties, or to persons, by reason of the blasting or other earthwork operations. The Contractor shall also be responsible for damage to embankments and cut areas, and sewer, water, gas or other underground lines which may 277 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 01 00 - 3 CEC Project #352-171 result from blasting or earthwork operations. All such damage shall be repaired and made good by the Contractor in a timely manner. 3.2 INSTALLATION A. FILLING AND COMPACTION 1. After a stable non-yielding surface has been established, the surface of the area to be filled shall be scarified with a disc or harrow to a depth of 4” to 6”. An initial 3” layer of fill material shall then be spread over the scarified surface and the entire area compacted as specified below. 2. No fill shall be placed on any area until that area has been inspected and approved by the Engineer. Fill shall not be placed on a snow covered or frozen surface. Fill materials shall be spread in uniform horizontal layers not exceeding 8” in uncompacted thickness. Alternating layers of cohesive and granular fill soils shall not be permitted. Spreading and compacting of fill material should be started at the lowest portion of the site. All fill must be placed in horizontal layers. Sloping fill planes will not be permitted. Fill material shall be distributed over the full width of the embankment, and in no case will deep ruts be allowed to form. 3. Keyways shall be provided at the toe of each fill slope as shown on the drawings. As each layer of fill meets the natural grade of a slope, a bench, approximately 7 to 8 feet wide, shall be cut into the existing grade with each layer of newly placed fill. If rock is encountered at the face of the natural grade, the original ground shall be cut in vertical steps of 4 to 5 feet and a horizontal bench cut into the rock at the top of each vertical increment. A horizontal plateau, approximately 15 to 20 feet wide, should be provided in the existing slope at vertical intervals of roughly 25 feet. Subsurface drains shall be installed at the toe of the slope and wherever springs or excessive seepage are encountered. Drains should be led to the outside face of the embankment and the water picked up and carried away in such a manner as to avoid softening the embankment or its toe, or producing erosion gullies. 4. Before compaction begins, the fill shall be brought to a water content that will permit proper compaction. This may require aerating the material if it is too wet, or the addition of water if it is too dry. If additional water is required, it should be uniformly distributed through the use of approved water wagons, and shall be thoroughly incorporated into the material by means of discs or other suitable mixing equipment. Care shall be taken to avoid trapping water within the fill. 5. The standard Proctor method of moisture-density relationship test, ASTM D 698 or AASHTO T-99, shall be used to determine the maximum laboratory dry density and the optimum moisture content of the material which is to be used for fill. 6. Each layer of fill material shall be compacted until its density is not less than 95% of the maximum laboratory dry density for the same material (100% for the top two (2) feet below pavements). The moisture content of compacted cohesive materials shall not vary by more than two (2) percentage points from the optimum moisture content for the same material, providing excessive yielding is not produced within this range of moisture contents. Where, in the opinion of the Engineer, proposed fill material is 278 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 01 00 - 4 CEC Project #352-171 too wet to permit drying in a reasonable length of time, the Engineer may reject the material and it must be removed from the work area. 7. The above compaction requirements are to be satisfied for all soil and weathered or soft rock fills. Weathered or soft rocks are those that can be broken down and disintegrated under normal compaction procedures and equipment. 8. At the close of each day's work, or where work is to be interrupted for a period of time, the surface of the site shall be shaped to drain freely, and sealed. If after a prolonged rainfall, the surface of the area to be filled or cut is too wet to work properly, the unsuitable material shall be removed to expose workable soil. The wet material removed may be dried and reused. Construction traffic shall be controlled so as to prevent rutting of graded areas and to avoid overrolling of any section. 9. All cut areas shall be rolled and compacted to produce a compaction equal to that of the filled area. If soft or yielding material is encountered in cuts, or fills as a result of trapping water, overrolling or improper control of construction traffic, and cannot be satisfactorily stabilized by moisture control, compaction or other means approved by the Engineer, the unstable material shall be excavated to the depth required by the Engineer. The excavation shall then be filled with suitable compacted material in accordance with the requirements outlined above. B. GRADING 1. Elevations shown on the plans are finished ground unless otherwise noted. Grading shall be maintained in such a manner as to provide free surface drainage of the site at all times without any ponding of water. 2. Provide ditches and swales to the cross-sections and grades shown on the drawings. Cut ditch subgrades 4” below the grades shown and provide 4” of topsoil where the plans call for seeding or sodding of the ditch. Keep ditches and swales free of accumulations of debris or washed in material until final acceptance of work by the Engineer. 3. Shape all surfaces to within not more than 0.10 feet above or below the required subgrade elevations and free from irregular surface changes. C. MAINTENANCE 1. The Contractor shall be responsible during construction and until final acceptance for the maintenance of all embankments made under the Contract. 2. During construction and until final acceptance, the Contractor shall construct temporary or permanent earth berms along the outer edges of the top surface of the embankment, construct temporary ditches, shape the embankment surface to provide for the drainage of surface runoff along and throughout the length of the embankments, and use any other methods necessary to maintain the work covered by this section so that the work will not contribute to excessive soil erosion. The Contractor shall construct brush dikes, or install temporary or permanent slope drains or other drainage features to assist in controlling erosion. 3. The Contractor shall replace, at no cost to the Owner, any portion of embankment which have become displaced or damaged due to carelessness or neglect on the part of the Contractor. Where the work has been properly constructed, completely 279 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 01 00 - 5 CEC Project #352-171 drained and properly maintained, and damage occurs due to natural causes, the Contractor will be paid at the Contract unit price for the excavated material required to make necessary repairs to such damage. 4. All embankments shall be brought to the grade and cross section shown on the plans or established by the Engineer, prior to final inspection and acceptance by the Engineer. 3.3 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL A. QUALITY CONTROL AND TESTING 1. The services of qualified soils testing personnel may be engaged by the Owner for the making of tests to determine the moisture-density relationships, relative densities, plastic and liquid limits and suitability of materials for compaction and for inspection and control of the site preparation, selection, placing and compaction of the fill. Such tests will be provided and paid for by the Owner, except that tests which reveal non-conformance with the Specifications and all succeeding tests for the same area, until conformance with the Specifications is established, shall be at the expense of the Contractor. The Owner will be responsible for paying for only the successful tests. A copy of the testing personnel's daily field report including results of in-place density and moisture content tests should be forwarded to the Owner and the Engineer at the end of each working day. 2. The Contractor shall cooperate with the testing personnel so as to permit proper inspection and control of the work without unnecessary delays.

Concrete that is painted with lead-based paint, or paint that has not been certified to the satisfaction of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Solid Waste Section to be below the federal standard to be considered lead-based paint, must be disposed of at a properly permitted construction and demolition landfill or a permitted municipal solid waste landfill. C. The Contractor shall maintain the earth surfaces of all waste areas, both during the work and until the completion of all seeding and mulching or other erosion control measures specified, in a manner which will effectively control erosion and siltation. 283 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 03 00 - 2 CEC Project #352-171 D. The following requirements shall also be applicable to all waste or disposal areas other than active public waste or disposal areas: 1. Rock waste shall be shaped to contours which are comparable to and blend in with the adjacent topography where practical, and shall be covered with a minimum 6” thick layer of earth material either from the project waste or from borrow. 2. Earth waste shall be shaped to contours which are comparable to and blend in with the adjacent topography where practicable, but in no case will slopes steeper than 2:1 be permitted. 3. Construction debris, grubbed debris and all broken pavement and masonry shall be covered with a minimum 6” thick layer of earth waste material from the project or borrow. The completed waste area shall be shaped as required above for disposal of earth waste. 4. Seeding and mulching shall be performed over all earth or earth covered waste areas. The work of seeding and mulching shall be performed in accordance with Section 02931. 5. Where the Engineer has granted permission to dispose of waste and debris within the project, the Engineer will have the authority to establish whatever additional requirements may be necessary to insure the satisfactory appearance of the completed project. Disposal of waste or debris in active public waste or disposal areas will not be permitted without prior approval by the Engineer. Such disposal will not be permitted when, in the opinion of the Engineer, it will result in excessive siltation or pollution.

Mechanical Excavation: 1. The use of mechanical equipment will not be permitted in locations where its operation would cause damage to trees, buildings, culverts, or other existing property, utilities, or structures above or below ground. In all such locations, hand excavating methods shall be used. 2. Mechanical equipment used for trench excavation shall be of a type, design, and construction and shall be controlled, that uniform trench widths and vertical sidewalls are obtained at least from an elevation one foot above the top of the installed pipe to the bottom of the trench, and that trench alignment is such that pipe when accurately laid to specified alignment will be centered in the trench with adequate clearance between the pipe and sidewalls of the trench. Undercutting the trench sidewall to obtain clearance will not be permitted. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 PREPARATION A. Dewatering: 1. The Contractor shall provide and maintain adequate dewatering equipment to remove and dispose of all surface water and groundwater entering excavations, trenches, or other parts of the work. Each excavation shall be kept dry during subgrade preparation and continually thereafter until the structure to be built, or the pipe to be installed therein, is completed to the extent that no damage from hydrostatic pressure, flotation, or other cause will result. 2. All excavations for concrete structures or trenches that extend down to or below groundwater shall be dewatered by lowering and keeping the groundwater level beneath such excavations 12” or more below the bottom of the excavation. 3. Surface water shall be diverted or otherwise prevented from entering excavated areas or trenches without causing damage to adjacent property. 4. The Contractor is responsible for obtaining any required permits or permissions necessary for the disposal of groundwater that is removed. Any discharged groundwater shall be clean and free of sediment. 5. The Contractor shall be responsible for the condition of any pipe or conduit which he may use for drainage purposes, and all such pipes or conduits which he may use for drainage purposes, and all such pipes or conduits shall be left clean and free of sediment. 6. Where trench sheeting is left in place, such sheeting shall not be braced against the pipe, but shall be supported in a manner which will preclude concentrated loads or horizontal thrusts on the pipe. Cross braces installed above the pipe to support sheeting may be removed after pipe embedment has been completed. B. Stabilization: 288 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 5 CEC Project #352-171 1. Subgrades for concrete structures and trench bottoms shall be firm, dense, and thoroughly compacted and consolidated; free from mud and muck; and sufficiently stable to remain firm and intact under the feet of the workmen. 2. Subgrades for concrete structures or trench bottoms, which are otherwise solid but which become mucky on top due to construction operations, shall be reinforced with one or more layers of crushed rock or gravel. The stabilizing material shall be spread and compacted to a depth of not less than 6” below the bottom of the structure or pipe. Not more than 1/2” depth of mud or muck shall be allowed to remain on stabilized trench bottoms when the pipe bedding material is placed thereon. The finished elevation of stabilized subgrades for concrete structures shall not be above subgrade elevations indicated on the drawings. C. Cutting Concrete or Asphalt Surface Construction: 1. All pavement cutting and repair shall be done in accordance with local ordinances. Cuts in concrete and asphaltic concrete shall be no larger than necessary to provide adequate working space for proper installation of pipe and appurtenances. Cutting shall be performed with a concrete saw in a manner which will provide a clean groove the complete thickness of the surface material along each side of the trench and along the perimeter of cuts for structures. 2. Concrete and asphaltic concrete over trenches excavated for pipelines shall be removed so that a shoulder not less than 12” in width at any point is left between the cut edge of the surface and the top edge of the trench. Trench width at the bottom shall not be greater than at the top and no undercutting will be permitted. Cuts shall be made to and between straight or accurately marked curved lines which, unless otherwise required, shall be parallel to the center line of the trench. 3. Pavement or other surfaces removed for connections to existing lines or structures shall not be of greater extent that necessary for the installation. 4. Where the trench parallels the length of concrete walks and the trench location is all or partially under the walk, the entire walk shall be removed and replaced. Where the trench crosses drives, walks, curbs, or other surface construction, the surface construction shall be removed and replaced between existing joints or between saw cuts as specified for payment. D. Site Grade: 1. General: Uniformly grade areas within limits of grading under this section, including adjacent transition areas. Smooth finish the surface within specified tolerances; compact with uniform levels or slopes between points where elevations are shown, or between such points and existing grades. 2. Ground Surface Preparation: Remove vegetation, debris, unsatisfactory soil materials, obstructions, and deleterious materials from ground surface prior to placement of fills. Plow, strip, or break up sloped surfaces steeper than 1 vertical to 4 horizontal so that fill material will bond with existing surface. Shape the subgrade as indicated on the drawings by forking, furrowing, or plowing so that the first layer of new material placed thereon will be well bonded to it. 3.2 FIELD MEASUREMENTS 289 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 6 CEC Project #352-171 A. Alignment, Grade, and Minimum Cover: 1. Vertical and horizontal alignment of pipes, and the maximum joint deflection used in connection therewith, shall be in conformity with requirements of the section covering installation of pipe. 2. Where pipe grades or elevations are not definitely fixed by the contract drawings, trenches shall be excavated to a depth sufficient to provide a minimum depth of backfill cover over the top of the pipe cover depths may be necessary on vertical curves or to provide necessary clearance beneath existing pipes, conduits, drains, drainage structures, or other obstructions encountered at normal pipe grades. Measurement of pipe cover depth shall be made vertically from the outside top of pipe to finished ground or pavement surface elevation except where future surface elevations are indicated on the drawings. B. Limiting Trench Widths: Trenches shall be excavated to a width that will provide adequate working space and sidewall clearances for proper pipe installation, jointing, and embedment. For the purposes of quantity measurements and payments, maximum trench widths shall be no greater than the pipe outside diameter plus 24” (12” either side of pipe). 3.3 PROTECTION A. Temporary Protection: Protect structures, utilities, sidewalks, pavements, and other facilities from damages caused by settlement, lateral movement, undermining, washout, and other hazards created by earthwork operations. B. Sheeting and Bracing: Make all excavations in accordance with Federal, State, and Local health and safety rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the Department of Labor, Occupation Safety and Health Administration, "Safety and Health Regulations for Construction". Furnish, put in place, and maintain such sheeting, bracing, etc., as may be necessary to support the sides of the excavation to comply with the above mentioned rules and regulations. C. Blasting: 1. The Contractor shall be responsible for all damage caused by blasting operations. Suitable methods shall be employed to confine all materials lifted by blasting within the limits of the excavation or trench. 2. All rock which cannot be handled and compacted as earth shall be kept separate from other excavated materials and shall not be mixed with backfill or embankment materials except as specified or directed. D. Care and Restoration of Property: 1. Enclose the trunks of trees which are to remain adjacent to the work with substantial wooden boxes of such height as may be necessary to protect them from piled material, equipment or equipment operation. Use excavating machinery and 290 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 7 CEC Project #352-171 cranes of suitable type and operate the equipment with care to prevent injury to remaining tree trunks, roots, branches and limbs. 2. Do not cut branches, limbs, and roots except by permission of the Engineer. Cut smoothly and neatly without splitting or crushing. In case of cutting or unavoidable injury to branches, limbs, and trunks of trees, neatly trim the cut or injured portions and cover with an application of grafting wax and tree healing paint as directed. 3. Protect by suitable means all cultivated hedges, shrubs and plants that might be injured by the Contractor's operations. Promptly heel in any such trees or shrubbery necessary to be removed and replanted. Perform heeling in and replanting under the direction of a licensed and experienced nurseryman. Replant in their original position all removed shrubbery and trees after construction operations have been substantially completed and care for until growth is reestablished. 4. Replace cultivated hedges, shrubs, and plants injured to such a degree as to affect their growth or diminish their beauty or usefulness, by items of kind and quality at least equal to the kind and quality existing at the start of the work. 5. Do not operate tractors, bulldozers or other power-operated equipment on paved surfaces if the treads or wheels of the equipment are so shaped as to cut or otherwise injure the surfaces. 6. Restore all surfaces, including lawns, grassed, and planted areas that have been injured by the Contractor’s operations, to a condition at least equal to that in which they were found immediately before the work was begun. Use suitable materials and methods for such restoration. Maintain all restored plantings by cutting, trimming, fertilizing, etc., until acceptance. Restore existing property or structures as promptly as practicable and do not leave until the end of construction period. E. Protection of Streams: Exercise reasonable precaution to prevent the silting of streams. Provide at Contractor's expense temporary erosion and sediment control measures to prevent the silting of streams and existing drainage facilities. The Contractor shall size structures and conform fully with the North Carolina Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. F. Air Pollution: 1. Comply with all pollution control rules, regulations, ordinances, and statutes which apply to any work performed under the Contract, including any air pollution control rules, regulations, ordinances and statutes, or any municipal regulations pertaining to air pollution. 2. During the progress of the work, maintain the area of activity, including sweeping and sprinkling of streets as necessary, so as to minimize the creation and dispersion of dust. If the Engineer decides that it is necessary to use calcium chloride or more effective dust control, furnish and spread the material, as directed, and without additional compensation. 3.4 TRENCH EXCAVATION 291 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 8 CEC Project #352-171 A. Length of Trench: 1. No more trenches shall be opened in advance of pipe laying than is necessary to expedite the work. One block or 400 feet (whichever is the shorter) shall be the maximum length of open trench on any line under construction. 2. Except where tunneling is indicated on the drawings, is specified, or is permitted by the Engineer, all trench excavation shall be open cut from the surface. B. Trench Excavation: 1. General: Perform all excavation of every description and of whatever substance encountered so that the pipe can be laid to the alignment and depth shown on the drawings. 2. Brace and shore all trenches, where required, in accordance with Federal, State, and Local health and safety rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the Department of Labor, Occupation Safety and Health Administration, "Safety and Health Regulations for Construction". 3. Make all excavations by open cut unless otherwise specified or indicated on the drawings. 4. Width of Trenches: Excavate trenches sufficiently wide to allow proper installation of pipe, fittings and other materials. Measurement and payment quantities will be based on a maximum trench width of not more than 12” clear of pipe on either side at any point. Do not widen trenches by scraping or loosening materials from the sides. 5. Trench Excavation in Earth: Earth excavation includes all excavation of whatever substance encountered. In locations where pipe is to be bedded in earth excavated trenches, fine grade the bottoms of such trenches to allow firm bearing for the bottom of the pipe on undisturbed earth. Where any part of the trench has been excavated below the grade of the pipe, fill the part excavated below such grade with pipe bedding material and compact at the Contractor's expense. 6. Trench Excavation in Fill: If pipe is to be laid in embankments or other recently filled material, first place the fill material to the finish grade or to a height of at least one foot above the top of the pipe, whichever is the lesser. Take particular care to ensure maximum consolidation of material under the pipe location. Excavate the pipe trench as though in undisturbed material. 7. Trench Bottom in Poor Soil: Excavate and remove unstable or unsuitable soil to a width and depth, as directed by the Engineer, and refill with a thoroughly compacted gravel bedding. 8. Bell Holes: Provide bell holes at each joint to permit the joint to be made properly and to provide a continuous bearing and support for the pipe. C. Trench Backfill: 1. General: Unless otherwise specified or indicated on the drawings, use suitable material for backfill which was removed in the course of making the construction excavations. Do not use frozen material for the backfill and do not place backfill on frozen material. Remove previously frozen material before new backfill is placed. Start backfilling as soon as practicable after the pipes have been laid, or the structures have been built and are structurally adequate to support the loads, 292 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 9 CEC Project #352-171 including construction loads to which they will be subjected, and proceed until its completion. 2. With the exception mentioned below in this paragraph, do not backfill trenches at pipe joints until after that section of the pipeline has successfully passed any specified tests required. Should the Contractor wish to minimize the maintenance of lights, and barricades, and the obstruction of traffic, he may, at his own risk, backfill the entire trench as soon as practicable after installation of pipe, and the related structures have acquired a suitable degree of strength. He shall, however, be responsible for removing and later replacing such backfill, at his own expense, should he be ordered to do so in order to locate and repair or replace leaking or defective joints or pipe. 3. Material: The nature of the materials will govern both their acceptability for backfill and the methods best suited for their placement and compaction in the backfill. Both are subject to the approval of the Engineer. Do not place stone or rock fragments larger than 4” in greatest dimension in the backfill. Do not drop large masses of backfill material into the trench in such a manner as to endanger the pipeline. Use a timber grillage to break the fall of material dropped from a height of more than 5 feet. Exclude pieces of bituminous pavement from the backfill unless their use is expressly permitted. 4. Zone Around Pipe: Place bedding material to the level shown on the Drawings and work material carefully around the pipe to insure that all voids are filled, particularly in bell holes. For backfill up to a level of 2 feet over the top of the pipe, use only selected materials containing no rock, clods or organic materials. Place the backfill and compact thoroughly under the pipe haunches and up to the mid-line of the pipe in layers not exceeding 6” in depth. Place each layer and tamp carefully and uniformly so as to eliminate the possibility of lateral displacement. Place and compact the remainder of the zone around the pipe and to a height of one foot above the pipe in layers not exceeding 6” and compact to a maximum density of at least 100 % as determined by ASTM D0698. 5. Tamping: Deposit and spread backfill materials in uniform, parallel layers not exceeding 12” thick before compaction. Tamp each layer before the next layer is placed to obtain a thoroughly compacted mass. Furnish and use, if necessary, an adequate number of power driven tampers, each weighing at least 20 pounds for this purpose. Take care that the material close to the bank, as well as in all other portions of the trench, is thoroughly compacted. When the trench width and the depth to which backfill has been placed are sufficient to make it feasible, and it can be done effectively and without damage to the pipe, backfill may, on approval of the Engineer, be compacted by the use of suitable rollers, tractors, or similarly powered equipment instead of by tamping. For compaction by tamping (or rolling), the rate at which backfilling material is deposited in the trench shall not exceed that permitted by the facilities for its spreading, leveling and compacting as furnished by the Contractor. 6. Wet the material by sprinkling, if necessary, to insure proper compaction by tamping (or rolling). Perform no compaction by tamping (or rolling) when the material is too wet either from rain or applied water to be compacted properly. 293 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 10 CEC Project #352-171 7. Trench Compaction: Compact backfill in pipe trenches to the maximum density as shown on the drawings, or as listed in the subsection entitled COMPACTION, with a moisture content within the range of values of maximum density as indicated by the moisture-density relationship curve. 3.5 SITE GRADE A. Placement and Compaction: 1. Place backfill and fill material in layers not more than 8” in loose depth. Before compaction, moisten or aerate each layer as necessary to provide the optimum moisture content. Compact each layer to the required percentage of maximum density for each area classification. Do not place backfill or material on surfaces that are muddy, frozen, or contain frost or ice. 2. In areas not accessible to rollers or compactors, compact the fill with mechanical hand tampers. If the mixture is excessively moistened by rain, aerate the material by means of blade graders, harrows, or other approved equipment, until the moisture content of the mixture is satisfactory. Finish the surface of the layer by blading or rolling with a smooth roller, or a combination thereof, and leave the surface smooth and free from waves and inequalities. 3. Place backfill and fill materials evenly adjacent to structures, to the required elevations. Take care to prevent wedging action of backfill against structures. Carry the material uniformly around all parts of the structure to approximately the same elevation in each lift. 4. When existing ground surface has a density less than that specified under the subsection entitled COMPACTION for the particular area classification, break up the ground surface, pulverize, moisture-condition to the optimum moisture content, and compact to required depth and percentage of maximum density. B. Grading Outside Building Lines: Grade to drain away from structures to prevent ponding of water. Finish surface free from irregular surface changes. C. Planting Areas: Finish areas to receive topsoil to within not more than one inch (1”) above or below the required subgrade elevations, compacted as specified, and free from irregular surface changes. D. Walks: Shape the surface of areas under walks to line, grade, and cross-section, with the finish surface not more than 0” above or 1” below the required subgrade elevation, compacted as specified, and graded to prevent ponding of water after rains. E. Pavements: 1. Shape the surface of the areas under pavement to line, grade and cross section, with finish surface not more than 1/2” above or below the required subgrade elevation, compacted as specified, and graded to prevent ponding of water after rains. Include such operations as plowing, discing, and any moisture or aerating required to provide the optimum moisture content for compaction. 294 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 11 CEC Project #352-171 2. Fill low areas resulting from removal of unsatisfactory soil materials, obstructions, and other deleterious materials, using satisfactory soil material. 3. Shape to line, grade, and cross section as shown on the drawings. F. Protection of Graded Areas: Protect newly graded areas from traffic and erosion, and keep free of trash and debris. Repair and re-establish grades in settled, eroded, and rutted areas to specified tolerances. G. Reconditioning Compacted Areas: Where completed compacted areas are disturbed by subsequent construction operations or adverse weather prior to acceptance of work, scarify surface, reshape, and compact to required density prior to further construction. H. Unauthorized Excavation: 1. Unauthorized excavation consists of the removal of materials beyond indicated elevations without the specific direction of the Engineer. Under footings, foundations, bases, etc., fill unauthorized excavation by extending the indicated bottom elevation of the concrete to the bottom of the excavation, without altering the required top elevation. Lean concrete fill may be used to bring elevations to proper position only when acceptable to the Engineer. 2. For pipe trenches and elsewhere, backfill and compact unauthorized excavations as specified for authorized excavations of the same classification, unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. 3.6 BACKFILL AROUND STRUCTURES A. General: Unless otherwise specified or indicated on the drawings, use suitable material for backfill which was removed in the course of making the backfill and do not place backfill which was removed in the course of making the construction excavations. Do not use frozen material for the backfill and do not place backfill upon frozen material. Remove previously frozen material before new backfill is placed. B. Material: Approved selected materials available from the excavations may be used for backfilling around structures. Obtain material needed in addition to that of construction excavations from off-site borrow pits selected by the Contractor. Furnish all borrow material needed on the work. Place and compact all material, whether from the excavation or borrow, to make a dense, stable fill. Use fill material which contains no vegetation, masses of roots, individual roots over 18” long or more than 1/2” in diameter, stones over 4” in diameter, or porous matter. Organic matter must not exceed negligible quantities. 295 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 31 04 00 - 12 CEC Project #352-171 C. Placing Backfill: Do not place backfill against or on structures until they have attained sufficient strength to support the loads (including construction loads) to which they will be subjected, without distortion, cracking, or other damage. Make special leakage tests, if required, as soon as practicable after the structures are structurally adequate and other necessary work has been done. Use the best of the excavated materials in backfilling within 2 feet of the structure. Avoid unequal soil pressures by depositing the material evenly around the structure. 3.7 COMPACTION A. General: Control soil compaction during construction providing at least the minimum percentage of density specified for each area classification. B. Percentage of Maximum Density Requirements: After compaction, all fill will be tested in accordance with Method "C" of ASTM D-698, unless specified otherwise. Except as noted otherwise for the zone around pipe, provide not less than the following percentages of maximum density of soil material compacted at optimum moisture content, for the actual density of each layer of soil material-in-place: UNPAVED AREAS Compact Full Depth to 92% DRIVES AND PARKING Top 24” - 100% TRENCH BACKFILL (PAVED AREAS) Compact full depth to 100% TRENCH BACKFILL (UNPAVED AREAS) Compact full depth to 95% ALL OTHER BACKFILL Compact full depth to 95% C. Moisture Control: Where subgrade or layer of soil material must be moisture conditioned before compaction, uniformly apply water to surface of subgrade, or layer of soil material, to prevent free water appearing on surface during or subsequent to compaction operations. Remove and replace, or scarify and air dry, soil material that is too wet to permit compaction to specified density. Soil material that has been removed because it is too wet to permit compaction may be stockpiled or spread and allowed to dry. Assist drying by discing, harrowing or pulverizing, until moisture content is reduced to a satisfactory value, as determined by moisture-density relation tests. D. Disposal of Surface Material: Upon approval of the Engineer, haul all surplus materials not needed or acceptable for backfill off-site. 3.8 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL A.

This section covers the furnishing of all labor, equipment and materials necessary for the establishment of vegetation of all areas of the site disturbed by construction operations and all earth surfaces of embankments including rough and fine grading, topsoil if required, fertilizer, lime, seeding and mulching. The Contractor shall adapt his operations to variations in weather or soil conditions as necessary for the successful establishment and growth of the grasses and legumes. PART 2 PRODUCTS 2.1 MATERIALS A. Fertilizer: 1. The quality of fertilizer and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Fertilizer Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. 2. Fertilizer shall be 10-10-10 grade. Upon written approval of the Engineer a different grade of fertilizer may be used, provided the rate of application is adjusted to provide the same amounts of plant food. 3. During handling and storing, the fertilizer shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected against hardening, caking, or loss of plant food values. Any hardened or caked fertilizer shall be pulverized to its original conditions before being used. B. Lime: 1. The quality of lime and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Lime Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. 2. During the handling and storing, the lime shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected against hardening and caking.

It shall contain not less than 85% of the calcium and magnesium carbonates and shall be of such fineness that at least 90% will pass a No. 10 sieve and at least 50% will pass a No. 100 sieve. 305 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 2 CEC Project #352-171 C. Seed: 1. The quality of seed and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Seed Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. Seed shall have been approved by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture or any agency approved by the Engineer before being sown, and no seed will be accepted with a date of test more than 9 months prior to the date of sowing. Such testing however, will not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for furnishing and sowing seed that meets these specifications at the time of sowing. When a low percentage of germination causes the quality of the seed to fall below the minimum pure live seed specified, the Contractor may elect, subject to the approval of the Engineer, to increase the rate of seeding sufficiently to obtain the minimum pure live seed contents specified, provided that such an increase in seeding does not cause the quantity of noxious weed seed per square yard to exceed the quantity that would be allowable at the regular rate of seed. 2. During handling and storing, the seed shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected from damage by heat, moisture, rodents or other causes. 3. Seed shall be entirely free from bulblets or seed of Johnson Grass, Nutgrass, Sandbur, Wild Onion, Wild Garlic, and Bermuda Grass. The specifications for restricted noxious weed seed refers to the number per pound, singly or collectively, of Blessed Thistle, Wild Radish, Canada Thistle, Corncockle, Field Bindweed, Quackgrass, Dodders, Dock, Horsenettle, Bracted Plantain, Buckhorn or Wild Mustard; but in no case shall the number of Blessed Thistle or Wild Radish exceed 27 seeds of each per pound. No tolerance on weed seed will be allowed. D. Mulch: Straw Mulch shall be threshed straw of oats, rye or wheat free from matured seed of obnoxious weeds or other species which would grow and be detrimental to the specified grass. E. Tackifier: Emulsified asphalt or organic tackifier such as Reclamare R2400 shall be sprayed uniformly on mulch as it is ejected from blower or immediately thereafter. Tackifier shall be applied evenly over area creating uniform appearance. Rates of application will vary with conditions. Asphalt shall not be used in freezing weather. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 PREPARATION A. Protection of Existing Trees and Vegetation: 1. Protect existing trees and other vegetation indicated to remain in place against cutting, breaking or skinning of roots, skinning and bruising of bark, smothering of trees by stockpiling construction materials or excavated materials within drip line, excess foot or vehicular traffic, or parking of vehicles within drip line. Provide wood or metal stakes set on 8 to 10 foot centers and connected at a 4’-0” 306 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 3 CEC Project #352-171 height by 2” minimum brightly colored flagging tape to protect trees and vegetation to remain. Set perimeter of protection at the drip line of trees to remain unless approved otherwise by the Engineer. 2. Provide protection for roots over 1-1/2" diameter cut during construction operations. Cleanly cut off end of damaged root and coat cut faces with an emulsified asphalt, or other acceptable coating, formulated for use on damaged plant tissues. Temporarily cover exposed roots with wet burlap to prevent roots from drying out and cover with earth as soon as possible. 3. The Contractor shall not remove or damage trees and shrubs which are outside the Clearing Limits established by the Owner or those within the Clearing Limits designated to remain. 4. Repair trees scheduled to remain and damaged by construction operations in a manner acceptable to the Engineer. Repair damaged trees promptly to prevent progressive deterioration caused by damage. 5. Replace trees scheduled to remain and damaged beyond repair by construction operations, as determined by the Engineer with trees of similar size and species. Repair and replacement of trees scheduled to remain and damaged by construction operations or lack of adequate protection during construction operations shall be at the Contractor's expense. B. Grading: 1. Rough grading shall be done as soon as all excavation required in the area has been backfilled. The necessary earthwork shall be accomplished to bring the existing ground to the desired finish elevations as shown on the Contract Drawings or otherwise directed. 2. Fine grading shall consist of shaping the final contours for drainage and removing all large rock, clumps of earth, roots and waste construction material. It shall also include thorough loosening of the soil to a depth of 6” by plowing, discing, harrowing or other approved methods until the area is acceptable as suitable for subsequent landscaping operations. The work of establishing vegetation shall be performed on a section by section basis immediately upon completion of earthwork or pipeline installation. 3. Upon failure or neglect on the part of the Contractor to coordinate his grading with seeding and mulching operations and diligently pursue the control of erosion and siltation, the Engineer may suspend the Contractor's grading operations until such time as the work is coordinated in a manner acceptable to the Engineer. C. Seedbed Preparation: 1. The Contractor shall cut and satisfactorily dispose of weeds or other unacceptable growth on the areas to be seeded. Uneven and rough areas outside the graded section, such as crop rows, farm contours, ditches and ditch spoil banks, fence line and hedgerow soil accumulations, and other minor irregularities which cannot be obliterated by normal seedbed preparation operations, shall be shaped and smoothed as directed by the Engineer to provide for more effective seeding and for ease of subsequent mowing operations. 307 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 4 CEC Project #352-171 2. The soil shall then be scarified or otherwise loosened to a depth of not less than 6” except as otherwise provided below or otherwise directed by the Engineer. Clods shall be broken and the top 2” to 3” of soil shall be worked into an acceptable seedbed by the use of soil pulverizers, drags, or harrows; or by other methods approved by the Engineer. 3. On 2:1 slopes a seedbed preparation will be required that is the same depth as that required on flatter areas, although the degree of smoothness may be reduced from that required on the flatter areas if so permitted by the Engineer. 4. On cut slopes that are steeper than 2:1, both the depth of preparation and the degree of smoothness of the seedbed may be reduced as permitted by the Engineer, but in all cases the slope surface shall be scarified, grooved, trenched, or punctured so as to provide pockets, ridges, or trenches in which the seeding materials can lodge. 5. On cut slopes that are either 2:1 or steeper, the Engineer may permit the preparation of a partial or complete seedbed during the grading of the slope. If at the time of seeding and mulching operations such preparation is still in condition acceptable to the Engineer, additional seedbed preparation may be reduced or eliminated. 6. The preparation of seedbeds shall not be done when the soil is frozen, extremely wet, or when the Engineer determines that it is in an otherwise unfavorable working condition. 3.2 APPLICATION A. Seed shall be applied by means of a hydro-seeder or other approved methods. The rates of application of seed, fertilizer and limestone shall be as stated in Table I. B. Equipment to be used for the application, covering or compaction of limestone, fertilizer, and seed shall have been approved by the Engineer before being used on the project. Approval may be revoked at any time if equipment is not maintained in satisfactory working condition, or if the equipment operation damages the seed. C. Limestone, fertilizer, and seed shall be applied within 24 hours after completion of seedbed preparation unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer, but no limestone or fertilizer shall be distributed and no seed shall be sown when the Engineer determines that weather and soil conditions are unfavorable for such operations. D. Limestone may be applied as a part of the seedbed preparation, provided it is immediately worked into the soil. If not so applied, limestone and fertilizer shall be distributed uniformly over the prepared seedbed at the specified rate of application and then harrowed, raked, or otherwise thoroughly worked or mixed into the seedbed. Seed shall be distributed uniformly over the seedbed at the required rate of application, and immediately harrowed, dragged, raked, or otherwise worked so as to cover the seed with a layer of soil. The depth of covering shall be as directed by the Engineer. If two kinds of seed are to be used which require different depths of covering, they shall be sown separately. 308 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 5 CEC Project #352-171 E. When a combination seed and fertilizer drill is used, fertilizer may be drilled in with the seed after limestone has been applied and worked into the soil. If two kinds of seed are being used which require different depths of covering, the seed requiring the lighter covering may be sown broadcast or with a special attachment to the drill, or drilled lightly following the initial drilling operation. F. When a hydraulic seeder is used for application of seed and fertilizer, the seed shall not remain in water containing fertilizer for more than 30 minutes prior to application unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer. G. Immediately after seed has been properly covered the seedbed shall be compacted in the manner and degree approved by the Engineer. H. When adverse seeding conditions are encountered due to steepness of slope, height of slope, or soil conditions, the Engineer may direct or permit that modifications be made in the above requirements which pertain to incorporating limestone into the seedbed; covering limestone, seed, and fertilizer; and compaction of the seedbed. Such modifications may include but not be limited to the following: 1. The incorporation of limestone into the seedbed may be omitted on (a) cut slopes steeper than 2:1; (b) on 2:1 cut slopes when a seedbed has been prepared during the excavation of the cut and is still in an acceptable condition; or (c) on areas of slopes where the surface of the area is too rocky to permit the incorporation of the limestone. 2. The rates of application of limestone, fertilizer, and seed on slopes 2:1 or steeper or on rocky surfaces may be reduced or eliminated. 3. Compaction after seeding may be reduced or eliminated on slopes 2:1 or steeper, on rocky surfaces, or on other areas where soil conditions would make compaction undesirable. I. Mulching: 1. All seeded areas shall be mulched unless otherwise indicated in the special provisions or directed by the Engineer. 2. It shall be spread uniformly at a rate of two tons per acre in a continuous blanket over the areas specified. 3. Before mulch is applied on cut or fill slopes which are 3:1 or flatter, and ditch slopes, the Contractor shall remove and dispose of all exposed stones in excess of 3” in diameter and all roots or other debris which will prevent proper contact of the mulch with the soil. Mulch shall be applied within 24 hours after the completion of seeding unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer. Care shall be exercised to prevent displacement of soil or seed or other damage to the seeded area during the mulching operation. 4. Mulch shall be uniformly spread by hand or by approved mechanical spreaders or blowers which will provide an acceptable application. An acceptable application 309 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 6 CEC Project #352-171 will be that which will allow some sunlight to penetrate and air to circulate but also partially shade the ground, reduce erosion, and conserve soil moisture. 5. Mulch shall be held in place by applying a sufficient amount of asphalt or other approved binding material to assure that the mulch is properly held in place. The rate and method of application of binding material shall meet the approval of the Engineer. Where the binding material is not applied directly with the mulch it shall be applied immediately following the mulch application. 6. The Contractor shall take sufficient precautions to prevent mulch from entering drainage structures through displacement by wind, water, or other causes and shall promptly remove any blockage to drainage facilities which may occur. 3.3 MAINTENANCE A. The Contractor shall keep all seeded areas in good condition, reseeding if and when necessary, until an acceptable stand of grass is established over the entire area seeded and shall maintain these areas in an approved condition until final acceptance of the Contract. B. Grassed areas will be accepted when a 95% cover by permanent grasses is obtained and weeds are not dominant. On slopes, the Contractor shall provide against washouts by an approved method. Any washouts which occur shall be regraded and reseeded until a good sod is established. C. Areas of damage or failure due to any cause shall be corrected by being repaired or by being completely redone as may be directed by the Engineer. Areas of damage or failure resulting either from negligence on the part of the Contractor in performing subsequent construction operations or from not taking adequate precautions to control erosion and siltation as required throughout the various sections of the specifications, shall be repaired by the Contractor as directed by the Engineer at no cost to the Owner. TABLE I - APPLICATION RATES A. Lime and Fertilizer: In the absence of a soil test, the following rates of application of limestone and fertilizer shall be: 1. 4,000 pounds limestone per acre 2. 1000 pounds 10-10-10 (N-P205-K20) fertilizer per acre and the remaining quantity applied when vegetation is three inches in height or 45 days after seeding, whichever comes first. B. Mulch: 310 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 01 00 - 7 CEC Project #352-171 Mulch shall be applied at the following rates per acre: 1. 3,000-4,000 pounds straw mulch, or 2. 1,500-2,000 pounds wood cellulose fiber. 3. 35-40 cubic yards of shredded or hammermilled hardwood bark 4. 1,200-1,400 pounds of fiberglass roving C.

END OF SECTION 316 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 1 CEC Project #352-171 SECTION 32 04 00 SEEDING, FERTILIZING, AND MULCHING PART 1 GENERAL 1.1 SCOPE OF WORK A. This section covers the furnishing of all labor, equipment and materials necessary for the landscaping of all areas of the site disturbed by construction operations and all earth surfaces of embankments including rough and fine grading, topsoil if required, fertilizer, lime, seeding and mulching. The Contractor shall adapt his operations to variations in weather or soil conditions as necessary for the successful establishment and growth of the grasses or legumes. PART 2 PRODUCTS 2.1 MATERIALS A. Fertilizer: 1. The quality of fertilizer and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Fertilizer Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. 2. Fertilizer shall be 10-10-10 grade. Upon written approval of the Engineer a different grade of fertilizer may be used, provided the rate of application is adjusted to provide the same amounts of plant food. 3. During handling and storing, the fertilizer shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected against hardening, caking, or loss of plant food values. Any hardened or caked fertilizer shall be pulverized to its original conditions before being used. B. Lime: 1. The quality of lime and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Lime Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. 2. During the handling and storing, the lime shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected against hardening and caking. Any hardened or caked lime shall be pulverized to its original condition before being used. 3. Lime shall be agriculture grade ground dolomitic limestone. It shall contain not less than 85% of the calcium and magnesium carbonates and shall be of such fineness that at least 90% will pass a No. 10 sieve and at least 50% will pass a No. 100 sieve. 317 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 2 CEC Project #352-171 C. Seed: 1. The quality of seed and all operations in connection with the furnishing of this material shall comply with the requirements of the North Carolina Seed Law and regulations adopted by the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. 2. Seed shall have been approved by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture or any agency approved by the Engineer before being sown, and no seed will be accepted with a date of test more than nine (9) months prior to the date of sowing. Such testing however, will not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for furnishing and sowing seed that meets these specifications at the time of sowing. When a low percentage of germination causes the quality of the seed to fall below the minimum pure live seed specified, the Contractor may elect, subject to the approval of the Engineer, to increase the rate of seeding sufficiently to obtain the minimum pure live seed contents specified, provided that such an increase in seeding does not cause the quantity of noxious weed seed per square yard to exceed the quantity that would be allowable at the regular rate of seed. 3. During handling and storing, the seed shall be cared for in such a manner that it will be protected from damage by heat, moisture, rodents, or other causes. 4. Seed shall be entirely free from bulblets or seed of Johnson Grass, Nutgrass, Sandbur, Wild Onion, Wild Garlic, and Bermuda Grass. The specifications for restricted noxious weed seed refers to the number per pound, singly or collectively, of Blessed Thistle, Wild Radish, Canada Thistle, Corncockle, Field Bindweed, Quackgrass, Dodders, Dock, Horsenettle, Bracted Plantain, Buckhorn or Wild Mustard; but in no case shall the number of Blessed Thistle or Wild Radish exceed 27 seeds of each per pound. No tolerance on weed seed will be allowed. D. Mulch: Straw mulch shall be threshed straw of oats, rye or wheat free from matured seed of obnoxious weeds or other species which would grow and be detrimental to the specified grass. E. Tackifier: Emulsified asphalt or organic tackifier such as Reclamare R2400 shall be sprayed uniformly on mulch as it is ejected from blower or immediately thereafter. Tackifier shall be applied evenly over area creating uniform appearance. Rates of application will vary with conditions. Asphalt shall not be used in freezing weather. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 PREPARATION A. Protection of Existing Trees and Vegetation: 1. Protect existing trees and other vegetation indicated to remain in place against unnecessary cutting, breaking or skinning of roots, skinning and bruising of bark, smothering of trees by stockpiling construction materials or excavated materials 318 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 3 CEC Project #352-171 within drip line, excess foot or vehicular traffic, or parking of vehicles within drip line. Provide temporary guards to protect trees and vegetation to be left standing. 2. Provide protection for roots over 1-1/2" diameter cut during construction operations. Coat cut faces with an emulsified asphalt, or other acceptable coating, formulated for use on damaged plant tissues. Temporarily cover exposed roots with wet burlap to prevent roots from drying out and cover with earth as soon as possible. 3. The Contractor shall not remove or damage trees and shrubs which are outside the Clearing Limits established by the Owner or those within the Clearing Limits designated to remain. 4. Repair trees scheduled to remain and damaged by construction operations in a manner acceptable to the Engineer. Repair damaged trees promptly to prevent progressive deterioration caused by damage. 5. Replace trees scheduled to remain and damaged beyond repair by construction operations, as determined by the Engineer with trees of similar size and species. Repair and replacement of trees scheduled to remain and damaged by construction operations or lack of adequate protection during construction operations shall be at the Contractor's expense. B. Grading: 1. Rough grading shall be done as soon as all excavation required in the area has been backfilled. The necessary earthwork shall be accomplished to bring the existing ground to the desired finish elevations as shown on the Contract Drawings or otherwise directed. 2. Fine grading shall consist of shaping the final contours for drainage and removing all large rock, clumps of earth, roots and waste construction materials. It shall also include thorough loosening of the soil to a depth of 6” by plowing, discing, harrowing or other approved methods until the area is acceptable as suitable for subsequent landscaping operations. The work of landscaping shall be performed on a section by section basis immediately upon completion of earthwork. 3. Upon failure or neglect on the part of the Contractor to coordinate his grading with seeding and mulching operations and diligently pursue the control of erosion and siltation, the Engineer may suspend the Contractor's grading operations until such time as the work is coordinated in a manner acceptable to the Engineer. C. Seedbed Preparation: 1. The Contractor shall cut and satisfactorily dispose of weeds or other unacceptable growth on the areas to be seeded. Uneven and rough areas outside of the graded section, such as crop rows, farm contours, ditches and ditch spoil banks, fence line and hedgerow soil accumulations, and other minor irregularities which cannot be obliterated by normal seedbed preparation operations, shall be shaped and smoothed as directed by the Engineer to provide for more effective seeding and for ease of subsequent mowing operations. 2. The soil shall then be scarified or otherwise loosened to a depth of not less than 6” except as otherwise provided below or otherwise directed by the Engineer. Clods shall be broken and the top 2” to 3” of soil shall be worked into an acceptable 319 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 4 CEC Project #352-171 seedbed by the use of soil pulverizers, drags, or harrows; or by other methods approved by the Engineer. 3. On 2:1 slopes a seedbed preparation will be required that is the same depth as that required on flatter areas, although the degree of smoothness may be reduced from that required on the flatter areas if so permitted by the Engineer. 4. On cut slopes that are steeper than 2:1, both the depth of preparation and the degree of smoothness of the seedbed may be reduced as permitted by the Engineer, but in all cases the slope surface shall be scarified, grooved, trenched, or punctured so as to provide pockets, ridges, or trenches in which the seeding materials can lodge. 5. On cut slopes that are either 2:1 or steeper, the Engineer may permit the preparation of a partial or complete seedbed during the grading of the slope. If at the time of seeding and mulching operations such preparation is still in a condition acceptable to the Engineer, additional seedbed preparation may be reduced or eliminated. 6. The preparation of seedbeds shall not be done when the soil is frozen, extremely wet, or when the Engineer determines that it is in an otherwise unfavorable working condition. D. Application Rates: Seed shall be applied by means of a hydro-seeder or other approved methods. The rates of application of seed, fertilizer and limestone shall be as stated below. 1. Lime and Fertilizer: In the absence of a soil test, the following rates of application of limestone and fertilizer shall be: a. 4,000 pounds limestone per acre b. 1000 pounds 10-10-10 (N-P205-K20) fertilizer per acre and the remaining quantity applied when vegetation is three inches in height or 45 days after seeding, whichever comes first. 2. Mulch: Mulch shall be applied at the following rates per acre: a. 3,000-4,000 pounds straw mulch, or b. 1,500-2,000 pounds wood cellulose fiber. c. 35-40 cubic yards of shredded or hammermilled hardwood bark d. 1,200-1,400 pounds of fiberglass roving 3. Seed: The kinds of seed and the rates of application shall be as contained in this table. All rates are in pounds per acre. See Notes 1 and 2. a. Fall and Winter (Normally August 1 to June 1) 80 pounds of Ky-31 tall fescue and 15 pounds of rye grain b. Summer (Normally May 1 to September 1) 100 pounds of Ky-31 tall fescue NOTE: 1. On cut and fill slopes having 2:1 or steeper slopes, add 40 pounds of sericea lespedeza per acre to the planned seeding (hulled in spring and summer unhulled 320 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 5 CEC Project #352-171 in fall and winter) plus 15 pounds of sudangrass in summer seeding or 25 pounds of rye cereal per acre in fall and winter seeding, if seeded September to February. 2. These seeding rates are prescribed for all sites with less than 50% ground cover and for sites with more than 50% ground cover where complete seeding is necessary to establish effective erosion control vegetative cover. On sites having 50% to 80% ground cover where complete seeding is not necessary to establish vegetative cover, reduce the seeding rate at least one-half the normal rate. E. Application: 1. Equipment to be used for the application, covering or compaction of limestone, fertilizer, and seed shall have been approved by the Engineer before being used on the project. Approval may be revoked at any time if equipment is not maintained in satisfactory working condition, or if the equipment operation damages the seed. 2. Limestone, fertilizer, and seed shall be applied within 24 hours after completion of seedbed preparation unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer, but no limestone or fertilizer shall be distributed and no seed shall be sown when the Engineer determines that weather and soil conditions are unfavorable for such operations. 3. Limestone may be applied as a part of the seedbed preparation, provided it is immediately worked into the soil. If not so applied, limestone and fertilizer shall be distributed uniformly over the prepared seedbed at the specific rate of application and then harrowed, raked, or otherwise thoroughly worked or mixed into the seedbed. 4. Seed shall be distributed uniformly over the seedbed at the required rate of application, and immediately harrowed, dragged, raked, or otherwise worked so as to cover the seed with a layer of soil. The depth of covering shall be as directed by the Engineer. If two kinds of seed are to be used which require different depths of covering, they shall be sown separately. 5. When a combination seed and fertilizer drill is used, fertilizer may be drilled in with the seed after limestone has been applied and worked into the soil. If two kinds of seed are being used which require different depths of covering, the seed requiring the lighter covering may be sown broadcast or with a special attachment to the drill, or drilled lightly following the initial drilling operation. 6. When a hydraulic seeder is used for application of seed and fertilizer, the seed shall not remain in water containing fertilizer for more than 30 minutes prior to application unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer. 7. Immediately after seed has been properly covered the seedbed shall be compacted in the manner and degree approved by the Engineer. 8. When adverse seeding conditions are encountered due to steepness of slope, height of slope, or soil conditions, the Engineer may direct or permit that modifications be made in the above requirements which pertain to incorporating limestone into the seedbed; covering limestone, seed, and fertilizer; and compaction of the seedbed. 9. Such modifications may include but not be limited to the following: a. The incorporation of limestone into the seedbed may be omitted on 321 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 6 CEC Project #352-171 i. cut slopes steeper than 2:1; ii. on 2:1 cut slopes when a seedbed has been prepared during the excavation of the cut and is still in an acceptable condition; or iii. on areas of slopes where the surface of the area is too rocky to permit the incorporation of the limestone. b. The rates of application of limestone, fertilizer, and seed on slopes 2:1 or steeper or on rocky surfaces may be reduced or eliminated. c. Compaction after seeding may be reduced or eliminated on slopes 2:1 or steeper, on rocky surfaces, or on other areas where soil conditions would make compaction undesirable. F. Mulching: 1. All seeded areas shall be mulched unless otherwise indicated in the special provisions or directed by the Engineer. 2. It shall be spread uniformly at a rate of two tons per acre in a continuous blanket over the areas specified. 3. Before mulch is applied on cut or fill slopes which are 3:1 or flatter, and ditch slopes, the Contractor shall remove and dispose of all exposed stones in excess of 3” in diameter and all roots or other debris which will prevent proper contact of the mulch with the soil. 4. Mulch shall be applied within 24 hours after the completion of the seeding unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer. Care shall be exercised to prevent displacement of soil or seed or other damage to the seeded area during the mulching operations. 5. Mulch shall be uniformly spread by hand or by approved mechanical spreaders or blowers which will provide an acceptable application. An acceptable application will be that which will allow some sunlight to penetrate and air to circulate but also partially shade the ground, reduce erosion, and conserve soil moisture. 6. Mulch shall be held in place by applying a sufficient amount of asphalt or other approved binding material to assure that the mulch is properly held in place. The rate and method of application of binding material shall meet the approval of the Engineer. Where the binding material is not applied directly with the mulch it shall be applied immediately following the mulch operation. 7. The Contractor shall take sufficient precautions to prevent mulch from entering drainage structures through displacement by wind, water, or other causes and shall promptly remove any blockage to drainage facilities which may occur. G. Maintenance: 1. The Contractor shall keep all seeded areas in good condition, reseeding and mowing if and when necessary as directed by the Engineer, until a good lawn is established over the entire area seeded and shall maintain these areas in an approved condition until final acceptance of the Contract. 2. Grassed areas will be accepted when a 95% cover by permanent grasses is obtained and weeds are not dominant. On slopes, the Contractor shall provide 322 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 32 04 00 - 7 CEC Project #352-171 against washouts by an approved method. Any washouts which occur shall be regraded and reseeded until a good sod is established. 3. Areas of damage or failure due to any cause shall be corrected by being repaired or by being completely redone as may be directed by the Engineer. Areas of damage or failure resulting either from negligence on the part of the Contractor in performing subsequent construction operations or from not taking adequate precautions to control erosion and siltation as required throughout the various sections of the specifications, shall be repaired by the Contractor as directed by the Engineer at no cost to the Owner.

Aggregate for underdrains shall be washed stone, standard size number 67 per North Carolina Department of Transportation specifications, Section 905. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 PREPARATION OF PIPE FOUNDATION A. Lines and Grades: The pipe foundation shall be prepared to be uniformly firm and shall be true to the lines and grades as shown on the plans. Any deviation or field adjustments will require the approval of the Engineer. When an Inspector is present on the site and is so requested by the Contractor, he shall check the position of grades and lines; but the Contractor shall be responsible for the finished drain line being laid to exact and proper line and grade. B. Pipe Foundation: 1. Whenever the nature of the ground will permit, the excavation at the bottom of the trench shall have the shape and dimensions of the outside lower third of the circumference of the pipe, care being taken to secure a firm bearing support uniformly throughout the length of the pipe. A space shall be excavated under and around each bell to sufficient depth to relieve it of any load and to allow ample space for filling and finishing the joint. The pipe, when thus bedded firmly, shall be on the exact grade. In case the bed shaped in the bottom of the trench is too low, the pipe shall be completely removed from position, and earth of suitable quality shall be placed and thoroughly tamped to prepare a new foundation for the pipe. 2. In no case shall the pipe be brought to grade by blocking up under the barrel or bell of same, but a new and uniform support must be provided for the full length of the pipe. Where rock or boulders are encountered in the bottom of the trench, the same shall be removed to such depth that no part of the pipe, when laid to grade, will be closer to the rock or boulders than 6”. A suitably tamped and shaped foundation of suitable earth shall be placed to bring the bottom of the trench to proper subgrade over rock or boulders. 3. Where the foundation material is found to be of poor supporting value, the Engineer may make minor adjustment in the location of the pipe to provide a more suitable foundation. Where this is not practical, the foundation shall be conditioned by removing the existing foundation material by undercutting to the depth as directed by the Engineer, within the limits established on the plans, and backfilling with either a suitable local material secured from unclassified excavation or borrow excavation at the nearest accessible location along the project, or foundation conditioning material consisting of crushed stone or gravel or a combination of sand and crushed stone or gravel approved by the Engineer as being suitable for the purpose intended. The selection of the type of backfill material to be used for foundation conditioning will be made by the Engineer. 326 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 05 00 - 4 CEC Project #352-171 C. Water in Trenches: The Contractor shall remove all water which may be encountered or which may accumulate in the trenches by pumping or bailing; and no pipes shall be laid until the water has been removed from the trench. The Contractor will not be permitted to drain water through the storm drain within a period of twenty-four (24) hours after the pipe has been laid, and the open end of the pipe in the trench shall be kept closed with a tight fitting plug to prevent washing of dirt or debris into the line. Water so removed from the trench must be disposed of in such manner as not to cause injury to work completed or in progress. D. Special Foundations: Whenever the bottom of the trench shall be of such nature as to provide unsatisfactory foundation for the pipe, the Engineer will require the pipe to be laid on timber or concrete cradle foundations. Such foundations whether of single plank, plank cradle, plank cradle supported on piles, or poured concrete cradle, shall be placed by the Contractor; and compensation will be allowed the Contractor for the materials so used. 3.2 LAYING PIPE A. General: All piping is to be installed in strict accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Installation manuals from various material suppliers shall be furnished the Engineer for his review and approval prior to installation of any material. The Engineer may augment any manufacturer's installation recommendations, if in his opinion it will best serve the interest of the Owner. B. Laying Pipe: 1. No pipe shall be laid except in the presence of the Engineer or his inspector, or without special permission from the Engineer. Proper tools, implements, and facilities satisfactory to the Engineer shall be provided and used for the safe and convenient prosecution of pipe laying. All pipe, fittings, valves, and other materials used in the laying of pipe will be lowered into the trench piece by piece by means of suitable equipment in such a manner to prevent damage to the pipe materials, to the protective coating on the pipe materials, and to provide a safe working condition to all personnel in the trench. Each piece of pipe being lowered into the trench shall be carefully given a final inspection to see that it is clean, sound and free of defects. It shall be laid on the prepared foundation to produce a straight line on a uniform grade, each pipe being laid as to form a close abutted joint with a preceding pipe, so as to form a smooth and straight inside flow line. Each pipe will be tested for its exact position after it is in its final position. The pipes shall be fitted together in order to insure sufficient space for joint gaskets, and other jointing material. Pipe shall be removed at any time if broken, injured or displaced in the process of laying same, or of backfilling the trench. 2. When cutting short lengths of pipe, a pipe cutter as approved by the Engineer will be used, and care will be taken to make the cut at right angles to the center line of the pipe, or on the exact skew as shown on the plans. In the case of push-on pipe, the cut ends shall be tapered with a portable grinder, of course file to match the manufactured taper. 327 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 05 00 - 5 CEC Project #352-171 3. When coupling bands for annular or helical corrugated metal pipe are used, the pipe sections shall be joined and fully bolted so that the circumferencial and longitudinal strength will be sufficient to preserve the alignment, prevent separation of the sections, and to prevent infiltration of backfill material. 3.3 BACKFILLING A. The backfill around the pipe shall be placed in layers not to exceed 6” loose and compacted to 95% Standard Proctor test for all areas directly beneath subgrade (100% for the top two (2) feet of subgrade beneath pavements). From the bottom of the trench to the centerline of the pipe the backfill material shall be compacted by approved hand tamps. From the centerline of the pipe to the top of the trench other mechanical tamps as approved by the Engineer may be used. All backfill material shall have been approved by the Engineer. Select backfill material shall be used when called for on the plans. B. Care shall be taken during backfill and compaction operations to maintain alignment and prevent damage to the joints. The backfill shall be kept free from stones, frozen lumps, chunks of highly plastic clay, or other objectionable materials. C. All pipe backfill areas shall be graded and maintained in such a condition that erosion or saturation will not damage the pipe bed or backfill. D. Heavy equipment shall not be operated over any pipe until it has been properly backfilled and has a minimum cover as required by the plans. Where any part of the required cover is above the proposed finish grade, the Contractor shall place, maintain, and finally remove such material at no cost to the Owner. Pipe which becomes misaligned, shows excessive settlement, or has been otherwise damaged by the Contractor's operations shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Owner. 3.4 TESTING A. Upon completion, installed lines shall show a full circle of light when "Lamped" between catch basins. This test shall be performed by the Engineer. B. Other tests may be required by the Engineer, such as exfiltration. In this event the results shall meet the minimum standards that the manufacturer states are obtainable.

All excavations shall be maintained water free until completion of the drainage structure, including backfilling. The Contractor shall provide adequate pumping capacity as required. C. Where the foundation material is found to be of poor supporting value, the existing foundation material shall be removed by undercutting to the depth directed by the Engineer and backfilled with suitable material secured from locations along the project or from a borrow pit. The backfill placed in the undercut area shall be compacted to a degree satisfactory to the Engineer. D. For cast-in-place structures the Contractor shall use care in placing rebar and concrete. Unless otherwise approved, the bottom slabs shall be poured separate from the walls. A minimum of seven (7) days cure time shall be provided between completion of pouring the bottom and the walls. 330 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 06 00 - 3 CEC Project #352-171 E.

END OF SECTION 331 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 11 00 - 1 CEC Project #352-171 SECTION 33 11 00 AGGREGATE BASE COURSE PART 1 GENERAL 1.1 SCOPE OF WORK A. The work covered by this section consists of the construction of a base composed of an approved aggregate material hauled to the site, placed on the site, compacted, and shaped to conform to the lines, grades, depths, and typical sections shown on the plans or established by the Engineer. PART 2 PRODUCTS 2.1 MATERIALS A. Aggregate base course materials shall consist of crushed stone or uncrushed gravel, or other similar material having hard, strong, durable particles free of adherent coatings. B. The Contractor shall furnish aggregate base course material produced in accordance with the requirements indicated herein for Type A, aggregate unless otherwise specified in the special provisions. C. All aggregates shall be from approved sources. Sources will not be approved unless the material has satisfactory soundness and satisfactory resistance to abrasion. Satisfactory soundness will be considered to be a weighted average loss of not greater than 15% when subjected to five (5) alternations of the sodium sulfate soundness test in accordance with AASHTO T104. Satisfactory resistance to abrasion will be considered to be a percentage of wear of not greater than 55% when tested in accordance with AASHTO T96. D. Aggregates shall be handled in such a manner as to minimize segregation. E. Sites for aggregate stockpiles shall be grubbed and cleaned prior to storing aggregates, and the ground surface shall be firm, smooth, and well drained. A cover of at least 3” of aggregate shall be maintained over the ground surface in order to avoid the inclusion of soil or foreign material. Stockpiles shall be built in such a manner as to minimize segregation. When it is necessary to operate trucks or other equipment on a stockpile in the process of building the stockpile, it shall be done in a manner approved by the Engineer. 332 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 11 00 - 2 CEC Project #352-171 F. Stockpiles of different types or sizes of aggregates shall be spaced far enough apart, or else separated by suitable walls or partitions, to prevent the mixing of the aggregates. G. Any method of stockpiling aggregates which allows the stockpile to become contaminated with foreign matter or causes excessive degradation of the aggregate will not be permitted. Excessive degradation will be determined by sieve tests of samples taken from any portion of the stockpile over which equipment has been operated, and failure of such samples to meet all grading requirements for the aggregate will be considered cause for discontinuance of such stockpiling procedure. H. Gradation: All standard sizes of aggregates shall meet the gradation requirements when tested in accordance with AASHTO T27. PART 3 EXECUTION 3.1 CONSTRUCTION OF STONE BASE A. The aggregate material shall be spread on the subgrade to a uniform loose depth and without segregation. B. Where the required compacted thickness of base is 8” or less the base material may be spread and compacted in one layer. Where the required compacted thickness of base is more than 8”, the base material shall be spread and compacted in 2 or more approximately equal layers. The minimum compacted thickness of any one layer shall be approximately 4”. C. Each layer of material shall have been sampled, tested, compacted, and approved prior to placing succeeding layers of base material or pavement. Such tests will be provided and paid for by the Owner, except that tests which reveal non-conformance with the Specifications and all succeeding tests for the same area, until conformance with the Specifications is established, shall be at the expense of the Contractor. The Owner will be responsible for paying for only the successful tests. The minimum compaction for each layer shall be 100% standard proctor. D. No base material shall be placed on frozen subgrade or base. Hauling equipment shall not be operated on subgrade or a previously completed layer of base material soft enough to rut or weave beneath the equipment. E. The maximum speed of trucks hauling or traveling over any part of the subgrade or base shall be 5 miles per hour. F. The Contractor shall utilize methods of handling, hauling, and placing which will minimize segregation and contamination. If segregation occurs, the Engineer may 333 IFB 2026-005 UNION COUNTY LANDFILL EXPANSION UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA June 2025 33 11 00 - 3 CEC Project #352-171 require that changes be made in the Contractor's methods to minimize segregation, and may also require mixing on the road which may be necessary to correct any segregated material. No additional compensation will be allowed for the work of road mixing as may be required under this provision. Aggregate which is contaminated with foreign materials to the extent the base course will not adequately serve its intended use shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Owner. The above requirements will be applicable regardless of the type of aggregate placed and regardless of prior acceptance. 3.2 QUALITY CONTROL A. Tolerances: 1. After final shaping and compacting the base, the Engineer will check the surface of the base for conformance to grade and typical section and will determine the base thickness. 2. The minimum thickness of the base shall be as required by the plans. B. Maintenance: Where the base material is placed in a trench section, the Contractor shall provide adequate drainage through the shoulders to protect the subgrade and base until such time as shoulders are completed. The Contractor shall maintain the surface of the base by watering, machining, and rolling or dragging when necessary to prevent damage to the base by weather or traffic.

704-283-3760 ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt Budget Amendment # 6 PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: On July 18, 2025, Union County Sheriff’s Office received a Notice of Contribution-Based Benefit Cap Liability (CBBC). The notice states that due to the recent increases to a staff member’s compensation and the proximity of this compensation to the member’s planned retirement, the County owes an additional liability based on the NC Retirement System’s formula. Pursuant to the North Carolina General Statutes the last employer of a member who retires on or after January 1, 2015, with an average final compensation (AFC) of $100,000 or higher (adjusted annually for inflation), is required to make an additional employer contribution to fund the increased cost to the NC Retirement System to pay for the member's retirement benefit if it is determined that the benefit is in excess of the CBBC. The letter indicated that a liability for $278,311.35 will be due to the NC Retirement System no later than September 5, 2025. This liability amount is contingent upon timely receipt of the employer's final salary contribution summary report for this member and may be adjusted based on additional information that is received by the NC Retirement System. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funds are available in the FY26 Personnel Contingency for the Sheriff’s Office, which was created during the FY 2026 Budget development process for anticipated expenses, such as overtime, retirement payouts, and pension liabilities. Union County, NC Printed on 8/27/2025Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™380 RECEIVED North Carolina Retirement Systems JU L 2 5 2025 HUMAN R.ESOURCES 7/18/2025 99001 -UNION COUNTY ATTN: CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER OR BUDGET ADMINISTRATOR 500 N. MAIN ST SUITE 130 MONROE, NC 28112 Re: GREGORY L THOMAS Member ID 1173800 Dear 99001 -UNION COUNTY: NOTICE OF CONTRIBUTION-BASED BENEFIT CAP LIABILITY The General Assembly enacted the Contribution-Based Benefit Cap (CBBC) legislation in 2014. It requires the employer contributions from participating employers in the North Carolina Retirement Systems to be augmented to reflect the cost of substantial unforeseen liabilities associated with significant increases of a member's compensation over the course of his or her career. The Retirement Systems Division (RSD) receives all employer contributions, including the contributions from employers affected by the CBBC. Pursuant to the North Carolina General Statutes the last employer of a member who retires on or after January 1, 2015, with an average final compensation (AFC) of $100,000 or higher (adjusted annually for inflation), is required to make an additional employer contribution to fund the increased cost to RSD to pay for the member's retirement benefit if it is determined that the benefit is in excess of the CBBC. RSD has determined that the above-referenced member, is due a monthly retirement benefit that exceeds the CBBC. The CBBC calculation is set forth below: Benefit Formula= $147,710.57 X 0.018500 X 30.7500 = $84,028.85 CBBC Formula= $183,896.36 I 13.598000 X 4.700000 = $63,561.77 3200 ATLANTIC AVENUE , RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA 27604 myNCRetirement.com • (919) 814-4590 381 If Benefit is greater than CBBC, the difference is multiplied by the Annuity Factor ($84,028.85 -$63,561.77) X 13.598000 = $278,311.35 The benefit formula used to calculate the invoice liability reflects an average final compensation based on the four-year period covering 7/2021 through 7/2025. This letter is specific notice that a liability for $278,311.35 will be due to RSD no later than September 5, 2025. Payment of the invoice should be processed through the Contribution Summary Instruction (CSI) via ORBIT. This liability amount is contingent upon timely receipt of the employer's final salary contribution summary report for this member and may be adjusted based on additional information that is received by the RSD. We will accept payment via check. You may mail your check (payable to the Local Governmental Employees' Retirement System with a copy of the invoice to N.C . Department of State Treasurer, Attn: Retirement Systems Divisions, 3200 Atlantic Avenue, Raleigh, NC 27604. A fee of $20.00 will be charged for any returned checks due to insufficient funds. For invoices issued on or after July 1, 2022, if the invoice has remained unpaid for at least 90 days as of the beginning of a State fiscal year (July 1 of 2023 or a later year) and you have not entered into a payment plan agreement, your regular rate of employer contributions to the Retirement System will be adjusted to include an additional rate as a percentage of your employees' compensation that is estimated to extinguish the contribution-based benefit cap liability on an amortized schedule of 12 years , including interest at a rate of 6 .5% per year. Instead of the estimated 12-year payment of the contribution-based benefit cap liability, you may also contact the Retirement Systems Division and enter into a payment plan agreement. If your employing entity is a Public School Unit, please visit www.myncretirement.com under the Contribution-Based Benefit Cap page for more information on the potential adjustment of your liability pursuant to Session Law 2023-48.

With a Contingency allowance of 10% at $26,700.00. Total Base price with Contingency of $293,700.00. Upon review of Dellinger, Inc. complete bid submittal, I found no inconsistency with information.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE Union County Board of Commissioners that: 1. Union County may commence construction of the DETENTION CENTER SEWER SCREENNING PROJECT on property located at 3344 Presson Road Monroe, NC 28112 after the award of the construction contract for the project. 2. This resolution and notice is adopted in accordance with the construction notice requirements of G.S. § 153A-457. Adopted this the 2nd day of September 2025.

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS: None. BACKGROUND: New proposed national opioid settlements have been reached with Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family, and with several secondary opioid manufacturers and their subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and directors. North Carolina is participating in these settlements. The settlement Participation Package attached to this agenda item must be submitted on or before September 30, 2025, in order for the County to be considered for initial participation calculations and payment eligibility. Based upon subdivision participation forms received on or before September 30, 2025, the subdivision participation rate will be used to determine whether participation is sufficient for the settlement to move forward and whether a state earns its maximum potential payment under the settlement. If the settlement moves forward, release of funds to the County will become effective. If a settlement does not move forward, that release will not become effective. Nonparticipation may also reduce the amount of money for programs to remediate the opioid crisis in its state. Decisions on how settlement funds will be allocated within a state are subject to the North Carolina Third Supplemental Agreement for Additional Funds from Additional Settlements of Opioid Litigation (SAAF-3), a supplement to the North Carolina Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on the allocation, use, and reporting of funds from the prior opioid settlements. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Union County is estimated to receive up to $2.1 million from these new settlements over time, between the years 2026 and 2041.

The definitions used in the MOA, the SAAF, and the SAAF-2 are incorporated by reference into this SAAF-3, except as such definitions are modified herein. 2. “Local Counsel” means legal counsel and law firms who have a principal office in North Carolina and represented one or more North Carolina counties and municipalities in litigation against one or more Additional Settling Defendant, Kroger, or Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants concerning opioids. 3. “National Counsel” means legal counsel and law firms who have a principal office outside of North Carolina and represented various North Carolina counties and municipalities in litigation concerning opioids against one or more Settling Defendant, Additional Settling Defendant, Kroger, or Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants. 4. “Required Local Governments” means all North Carolina counties and municipalities that have filed litigation against any of the Settling Defendants, Additional Settling Defendants, Kroger, or Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants. 437 3 5. “Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants” means the defendants listed in section II.D of this SAAF-3. 6. “Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds” means all funds allocated by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements to the State or Local Governments for purposes of opioid remediation activities, as well as any repayment of those funds and any interest or investment earnings that may accrue as those funds are temporarily held before being expended on opioid remediation strategies. Not included are funds made available in Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements for the payment of the Parties’ litigation expenses or the reimbursement of the United States Government. 7. “Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements” means a national opioid settlement agreement with the Parties and one or more of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants concerning alleged misconduct in manufacture, marketing, promotion, or distribution of an opioid product. B. Allocation of Additional Funds 1. Method of distribution. Pursuant to any Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds shall be distributed directly to the State, Local Governments, and Local Counsel for such uses as set forth in the MOA and this SAAF-3, provided Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds shall not be considered funds of the State, any Local Governments, or any Local Counsel unless and until such time as each distribution is made. 2. Overall allocation of funds. Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds shall be allocated as follows with respect to each payment from the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants: (i) 15% directly to the State (“State Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Fund”), (ii) 84.62% to abatement funds established by Local Governments (“Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds”), and (iii) 0.38% to a Local Counsel Fee Fund described in section IV of this SAAF-3. 3. The allocation of Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds between Local Governments shall be as described in MOA section B.3. However, to the extent required by the terms of a Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement, the proportions set forth in MOA Exhibit G shall be adjusted: (i) to provide no payment from a Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement to any listed county or municipality that does not participate in the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement; and (ii) to provide a reduced payment from a Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement to any listed county or municipality that signs onto the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer 438 4 Settlement after the deadline specified by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement. 4. Municipal allocations of Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds shall be as described in MOA section B.4. Consistent with the manner in which MOA section B.4.b has been interpreted by the parties to the MOA with respect to Opioid Settlement Funds, a municipality that directs Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds to the county or counties in which it is located pursuant to MOA section B.4 shall be relieved of any reporting or other obligations under the MOA with respect to the redirected funds. 5. The use of Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds for opioid remediation activities shall be as described in MOA section B.5. 6. All Parties acknowledge and agree the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements will require a Local Government to release all its claims against the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants to receive Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds. All Parties further acknowledge and agree based on the terms of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, a Local Government may receive funds through this SAAF-3 only after complying with all requirements set forth in the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements to release its claims. C. Payment of Litigating and Non-Litigating Parties No party engaged in litigating the MDL Matter shall receive a smaller payment than a similarly situated non-litigating Party, other than as based on the Allocation Proportions in MOA Exhibit G. D. Special Revenue Fund Every Local Government receiving Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds shall either (1) deposit the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds in the special revenue fund that the Local Government created for Opioid Settlement Funds pursuant to MOA section D.1 and/or Additional Funds pursuant to SAAF section III.D and/or Kroger Funds pursuant to SAAF-2 section III.D or (2) create a separate special revenue fund as described in MOA section D.1 that is designated for the receipt and expenditure of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds. In either case, every Local Government receiving Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds shall abide by MOA section D and other relevant provisions of the MOA with respect to the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds in the special revenue fund. 439 5 E. Opioid Remediation Activities 1. Local Governments shall expend Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds according to the requirements for Opioid Settlement Funds stated in MOA section E. 2. The coordination group established by MOA section E.7 and described in MOA Exhibit D shall have the same responsibilities with respect to remediation activities funded by Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds and related requirements and procedures that it has with respect to the Opioid Settlement Funds covered by the MOA. F. Auditing, Compliance, Reporting, and Accountability 1. The Auditing, Compliance, Reporting, and Accountability provisions stated in MOA section F shall apply to Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds in the way they apply to Opioid Settlement Funds. 2. The coordination group established by MOA section E.7 and described in MOA Exhibit D shall have the same responsibilities with respect to auditing, compliance, reporting, and accountability provisions relating to Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds that it has with respect to the Opioid Settlement Funds covered by the MOA. G. Effectiveness 1. When this SAAF-3 takes effect. This SAAF-3 shall become effective at the time a sufficient number of Local Governments have joined the SAAF-3 to qualify the SAAF-3 as a State-Subdivision Agreement under the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements. If this SAAF-3 does not thereby qualify as a State-Subdivision Agreement, this SAAF-3 will have no effect. 2. Amendments to the SAAF-3. a. Amendments to conform to final national documents. The Attorney General, with the consent of a majority vote from a group of Local Government attorneys appointed by the Association of County Commissioners, may initiate a process to amend this SAAF-3 to make any changes required by the final provisions of the Secondary Manufacturer Opioid Settlements. The Attorney General’s Office will provide written notice of the necessary amendments to all the previously joining parties. Any previously joining party will have a two-week opportunity to withdraw from the SAAF-3. The amendments will be effective to any party that does not withdraw. 440 6 b. Coordination group. The coordination group may make the changes to the SAAF-3 described and authorized in MOA Exhibit D. c. No amendments to allocation between Local Governments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this SAAF-3, the allocation proportions set forth in MOA Exhibit G may not be amended. d. General amendment power. After execution, the coordination group may propose other amendments to the SAAF-3, subject to the limitation in section III.G.2.c of this SAAF-3. Such amendments will take effect only if approved in writing by the Attorney General and at least two-thirds of the Local Governments who are Parties to this SAAF-3. In the vote, each Local Government Party will have a number of votes measured by the allocation proportions set forth in MOA Exhibit G. 3. Acknowledgement. The Parties acknowledge this SAAF-3 is an effective and fair way to address the needs arising from the public health crisis due to the misconduct committed by the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants. 4. When this SAAF-3 is no longer in effect. This SAAF-3 is effective until one year after the last date on which any (a) Opioid Settlement Funds are being spent by Local Governments pursuant to the National Settlement Agreement and any Bankruptcy Resolution, or (b) Additional Funds are being spent by Local Governments pursuant to the Additional Settlements, or (c) Kroger Funds are being spent by Local Governments pursuant to the Kroger Settlement, or (d) Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds are being spent by Local Governments pursuant to the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements. 5. Application of SAAF-3 to settlements. This SAAF-3 applies to the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlement. 6. Applicable law and venue. Unless required otherwise by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, this SAAF-3 shall be interpreted using North Carolina law and any action related to the provisions of this SAAF-3 must be adjudicated by the Superior Court of Wake County. If any provision of this SAAF-3 is held invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, this invalidity does not affect any other provision which can be given effect without the invalid provision. 441 7 7. Scope of this SAAF-3. The Parties acknowledge this SAAF-3 does not excuse any requirements placed upon them by the terms of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, except to the extent those terms allow for a State-Subdivision Agreement to do so. 8. No third party beneficiaries. No person or entity is intended to be a third party beneficiary of this SAAF-3. 9. No effect on authority of parties. Nothing in this SAAF-3 shall be construed to affect or constrain the authority of the Parties under law. 10. Signing and execution of this SAAF-3. This SAAF-3 may be signed and executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. A signature transmitted by facsimile, electronic image, or DocuSign shall be deemed an original signature for purposes of executing this SAAF-3. Each person signing this SAAF-3 represents he or she is fully authorized to enter into the terms and conditions of, and to execute, this SAAF-3, and all necessary approvals and conditions precedent to execution have been satisfied. IV. LOCAL COUNSEL FEE FUND Local Counsel have reviewed the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, find them to be equitable, and recommend their clients execute these Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements and this SAAF-3. If (1) all Local Counsel sign this SAAF-3 whereby they consent to the terms of this SAAF-3 and agree to be legally bound by this SAAF-3, including but not limited to Section IV of this SAAF-3, and (2) all Required Local Governments agree on or before [insert TBD settlement participation deadline date, expected to be approximately October 1], 2025 to execute the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, and dismiss litigation against the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants (if applicable), as required by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, then each Local Counsel shall be entitled to receive a portion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund for the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, in such proportions as set forth below. If one or more Required Local Governments does not execute the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, and dismiss litigation (if applicable), as required by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, then the 0.38% share of Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds set forth in Section III.B.2 of this SAAF-3 for the Local Counsel Fee Fund shall be included in the Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds, such that 85% of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds will be allocated to Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds, and 0% will be allocated to the Local Counsel Fee Fund. Local Counsel release all North Carolina counties and municipalities from any claim regarding the obligation to pay legal fees or costs relating to their 442 8 representation of North Carolina counties and municipalities regarding opioid claims and litigation against the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants. Local Counsel retain their rights to recover legal fees from any national legal fee fund established by a national settlement and to collect any fees due from National Counsel. If one or more National Counsel fails to release its North Carolina client counties and/or municipalities from any contractual obligation to pay legal fees or costs relating to their representation of North Carolina counties and municipalities regarding opioid claims and litigation against the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Defendants, as required for National Counsel and Local Counsel to receive a portion of the national fee funds created by the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Settlements, then the 0.38% share of Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds set forth in Section III.B.2 of this SAAF-3 for the Local Counsel Fee Fund shall be included in the Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds, such that 85% of the Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Funds will be allocated to Local Secondary Opioid Manufacturer Abatement Funds, and 0% will be allocated to the Local Counsel Fee Fund. The proportion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund to be received by each Local Counsel will be the same as for the Local Counsel Fee Fund created by the SAAF and the SAAF-2. Each Local Counsel’s release of claims against all North Carolina counties and municipalities as provided above shall remain in full force and effect regardless of the proportion of the Local Counsel Fee Fund that any Local Counsel receives. 443 9 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties, through their duly authorized officers, have executed this Third Supplemental Agreement for Additional Funds under seal as of the date hereof.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: None Union County, NC Printed on 8/27/2025Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™484 485 TMTLA Associates 5011 Southpark Drive Suite 200 - Durham, NC 27713 p: (919) 484-8880 - e: info@tmtla.com Old Waxhaw Monrow Road – Union County Letter of Intent and Zoning Conditions TMTLA Associates, on behalf of Capital Properties of Raleigh LLC, is submitting a rezoning for the 48.59 AC property located on Old Waxhaw Monroe Road (PIN 09417001M) in Union County, North Carolina. The current zoning designation is RA-40 and we are requesting a zoning designation of R-10. The rezoning would facilitate the development of a single family detached neighborhood. The Future Land Use Map (herein FLUM) calls this development out as Rural Residential, which allows up to 1 dwelling unit per acre. Our development is showing a connection to Highway 75, and as such we are requesting an extension of the Suburban Residential FLUM designation, which is on the north side of Highway 75, to extend to the south of Highway 75 and allow for a higher density development. Our development includes 30% open space and will only consist of single family detached units and allowed accessory uses. This development will meet all requirements of the Union County Unified Development Ordinance. This project offers the following conditions for the rezoning request: 1) Development shall be limited to single family detached homes and associated permitted uses. 2) Density will not exceed 1.9 du/ac. 3) Development shall meet all requirements of the Union County Unified Development Ordinance. 486 SCALE:DRAWN BY:DATE:OFSHEETREVISIONS:PROJECT #LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE & LAND PLANNING 5011 SOUTHPARK DRIVE, STE.200-DURHAM, NC 27713 p: (919) 484-8880 e: info@tmtla.com3-17-2025MA, PMPUNION COUNTY, NC OLD WAXHAW MONROE RD OLD WAXHAW MONROE REZONING 02REZONING PLAN AS NOTED25023PRELIMINARYNOT FORCONSTRUCTION2022-XX-XX05-29-25L-0RKnow what'sbelow.before you dig.CallDial 811 or 1-800-632-4949SWNEMONROE, NC 28112REZONINGPIN# 09417001MVICINITY MAP1" = 2,000'O L D W A X H A W H W YDOSTER ROADWAXHAW HWYSITEL-0COVER SHEETL-1EXISTING CONDITIONSRZ-1SITE LAYOUT PLANRZ-2REFORESTATION PLANSHEET INDEXFIRST SUBMITTAL03/17/2025SUBMITTAL DATESlandscape architect:TMTLA Associates5011 Southpark Drive, Ste. 200Durham, North Carolina 27713(919) 484-8880Contact: Andy Porter, PLAowner:B&C Land Farming LLC2627 Brekonridge Centre DrMonroe NC 28110developer:Capital Properties of Raleigh VII, LLCc/o Jeff Palmer4112 Blue Ridge Road, Suite 210Raleigh, NC 27612919-699-2192jeff@shenandoahhomes.usSTONE MARKER DRS ROCKY RIVER RDSITE DATAOWNER: B&C LAND FARMING, LLCADDRESS: 2627 BREKONRIDGE CENTRE DRMONROE, NC 28110PROPERTY ADDRESS: OLD WAXHAW MONROE RDMONROE, NC 28112PIN:09417001MREID:DB 7939 /DP 0534TOTAL AREA:48.59 ACRESAREA NOT INCLUDING ROW: 47.95 ACRES30% OPEN SPACE AREA REQ:14.4 ACRESEX.

The rezoning will include the following conditions: 1. Limited to site plan dated July 8, 2025 2. Uses limited to 91 single-family homes 3. Five-year vesting of development rights 4. Development will meet all requirements of the Union County Unified Development Ordinance on the date of approval 491 unioncountync.gov Owner/Applicant Owner: B&C Land Farming, LLC 2627 Brekonridge Centre Drive Monroe, NC 28110 Applicant: TMTLA Associates 5011 Southpark Drive, Suite 200 Durham, NC 27713 Property Information Location: Between NC 75 and Old Waxhaw Monroe Road. Location more specifically described as tax parcel 09-417-001M. Site West of site on Old Waxhaw Monroe South of Site on US 601 Looking east on NC 75 Looking south from Old Waxhaw Monroe 492 unioncountync.gov Municipal Proximity: The site is immediately east of the town of Mineral Springs. Existing Land Use and Development Status: The parcel is currently zoned RA-40. The site is cleared and used for agriculture. Environmental Features: There are no streams or floodplains on site. The applicant has identified two wetlands, which are located inside open space for the development. The site is cleared for agriculture. 493 unioncountync.gov Utilities: Public water and sewer are available to the site. Zoning and Land Use History: The parcel site has been zoned RA-40 since zoning was initiated. This parcel is part of the original 2003 Stonebridge development, which received approval as a “Smart Growth” development. This portion of the site was approved for 67 lots of approximately 17,000 SF each. The commercial and industrial zoned properties at Rocky River and NC 75 occurred starting in the 1970s. Ther have been no special use permits immediately adjacent to the property, although several have been approved at properties adjacent to the same intersection. 494 unioncountync.gov Schools: Based on the provided information, the subdivision is currently assigned to the following schools: Utilizing information collected and analyzed on the demography report prepared for Union County Public Schools, the organization is currently tracking 3,334 vacant designed land (VDL) units within the assigned cluster. This number of VDL units potentially generates 667 students within the cluster. Additional residential construction contributes to high enrollments, which in turn exacerbate problems such as: - Additional mobile classrooms - Inadequate capacity for food service and rest room facilities - Rationing of access to the Media Center - Insufficient parking and queuing space for parents to safely deliver or pick up their children - Inadequate planning/meeting space for additional staff. Transportation: This site will have access from NC 75 and Old Waxhaw Monroe Road. Access on NC 75 would be right in right out, while the access from Old Waxhaw Monroe Road would be full movement. A deceleration lane may be required for the access from NC 75. The eastern driveway on Old Waxhaw 495 unioncountync.gov Monroe would line up with Stone Marker Drive in the Stonebridge development. NC 75 carries approximately 7,500 vehicles per day, while Old Waxhaw Monroe carries approximately 550 vehicles per day. There are no funded road improvement projects in the immediate vicinity of the rezoning. A traffic Impact Analysis was not required for this rezoning. The proposed use would generate approximately 900 trips per day. The connection from NC 75 to Stone Marker is helpful to distribute traffic away from Potter Road south of NC 75 in downtown Mineral Springs. Planning Documents Union County Comprehensive Plan: The Union County 2050 comprehensive plan identifies this area as an Employment Corridor overlaid upon Rural Residential. NC 75 serves as the boundary between Single Family Residential (two units per acre) and Rural Residential (one unit per acre). The Single Family Residential district is intended for areas with utilities and access to major roads. The Rural Residential district is intended for areas without utilities or near major roads further from developed areas. 496 unioncountync.gov Public and Municipal Comments Public Comments: A community meeting was held July 8, 2025. Seven residents attended and asked questions about buffering, road connections, home prices, and schedule. No changes were made to the site plan as a result of this meeting. One person spoke in opposition at the Land Use Board meeting, citing small lot sizes and loss of environmental features. Municipal Comments: Mineral Springs was consulted for feedback. They oppose R-10 zoning on their border. 497 unioncountync.gov Staff Comments and Recommendation Land Use Board Recommendation The Land Use Board unanimously recommended denial at its July 15, 2025, meeting, citing concerns over cut through traffic, density, and opposition by Mineral Springs. This part of Union County is identified for employment uses as an overlay over rural residential and agricultural land uses. The rezoning proposes single-family residential at approximately two units per acre. The area is immediately south of the Single-Family Residential district in the land use map. The proposed site has access to NC 75, utilities, and provides additional road connections to the Stone Bridge development immediately south of the site. The proposed site plan meets the requirements of the unified development ordinance and provides greater than the required 30 percent open space, consistent with the requirements in the Rural Residential portions of the land use map. Finally, the schools serving this development have capacity. Because of these aspects of the development, staff recommend approval of this rezoning application. 498 BOCC Motions for Proposed Amendment to the Union County Zoning Map (CZ-2025-004) The Union County Land Use Board recommended that the Union County Board of Commissioners deny the rezoning petition CZ-2025-004, submitted by TMTLA Associates, requesting a revision of the Union County Zoning Map by rezoning one parcel totaling 48.592 acres appearing on the tax map as tax parcel 09-417-001M located on Old Waxhaw Monroe Road from RA-40 to R-10 with Conditions. TO APPROVE THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT (THE PROPOSAL IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT PLAN) Motion (i) Adopt the Ordinance Approving Revision to the Official Zoning Map of Union County, North Carolina, and (ii) adopt the consistency and reasonableness statement for approval. TO DENY THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT (THE PROPOSAL IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT PLAN) Motion (i) Deny rezoning petition CZ-2025-004 from TMTLA Associates; and (ii) adopt the consistency and reasonableness statement for denial. 499 Statements of Consistency and Reasonableness for Proposed Amendment to the Union County Zoning Map The Union County Land Use Board recommended that the Union County Board of Commissioners deny the rezoning petition (CZ-2025-004) submitted by TMTLA Associates, requesting a revision of the Union County Zoning Map by rezoning one parcel totaling 48.592 acres appearing on the tax map as tax parcel 09-417-001M located on Old Waxhaw Monroe Road from RA-40 to R-10 with Conditions. CONSISTENCY AND REASONABLENESS STATEMENT FOR APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT (THE PROPOSAL IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT PLAN) (CZ-2025-004) Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 160D-605, the Union County Board of Commissioners (the “Board”) does hereby find and determine that adoption of the proposed map amendment is inconsistent with the currently adopted Union County Comprehensive Plan (the “Plan”). The Board declares that adoption of the proposed map amendment is deemed an amendment to the Plan, including any future land-use map in the Plan. The adoption of the proposed map amendment (i) takes into account the need to amend the zoning map to meet the needs of the community, and (ii) is reasonable and in the public interest because: 1. The Plan’s Land Use Map identifies this area as Rural Residential with an Employment Corridor overlay. The Plan provides that a variety of employment uses may be appropriate along an Employment Corridor. Because the Employment Corridor overlays a Rural Residential area, single family residential uses at a density of no more than one unit per acre may also be appropriate in these areas in certain circumstances. Although the density set forth in the proposed rezoning is more than one unit per acre, the density is similar to what is recommended for the areas just to the north of this property on the other side of NC 75. Specifically, the Plan’s Land Use Map identifies that area as appropriate for single-family residential, which allows smaller lot sizes and a higher density than one unit per acre where water and sewer utilities are present. Here it is reasonable to allow a development with such density, as water and sewer utilities are present in the area and developments on both sides of NC 75 would be able to take advantage of this NC highway. 2. The parcel projects connection to a residential development immediately south of the site, providing additional options for traffic to access NC 75, potentially alleviating some traffic impacts on other roads (with traffic congestion being a concern in the Plan). 3. The use set forth under the conditions would meet Union County development standards, including providing open space in excess of the subdivision open space requirements. 4. The proposed use is similar to other nearby uses in that it is residential in nature and many of the adjacent and nearby uses are also residential in nature. 5. The benefits to the community at large, the neighbors, and the property owners of the proposed rezoning outweigh any detriments to the neighbors and others caused by the rezoning. The benefits of this rezoning include increasing housing inventory and housing availability in Union County, potentially allowing for increased housing affordability 500 with additional inventory; and adding additional street connections, which could reduce traffic flow congestion in certain areas. The potential detriments of the use established by this rezoning include increased noise, light, and traffic exposure, as well as increased public services impacts, resulting from the proposed use and associated increased population potential in the area. 501 CONSISTENCY AND REASONABLENESS STATEMENT FOR DENIAL OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT (THE PROPOSAL IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT PLAN) (CZ-2025-004) Pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 160D-605, the Union County Board of Commissioners (the “Board”) does hereby find and determine that this rezoning petition is inconsistent with the Union County Comprehensive Plan (the “Plan”) and that denial of the proposed map amendment is reasonable and in the public interest because: 1. The Plan’s Land Use Map identifies this area as Rural Residential with an Employment Corridor overlay. Such areas should be preserved for industrial and other recommended uses. The Plan specifically identifies such uses to include distribution, aeronautics, industrial, and agri-business uses. The residential uses on this property would remove potential industrial and commercial land for future development and instead allow higher density residential immediately adjacent to existing industrial facilities. Further, the development would have a higher density than what is planned for in rural residential areas under the Plan’s current Land Use Map. 2. Continued and future allowed residential uses along the Employment Corridor could result in increased congestion on the roads and streets adjacent and nearby to the property. Traffic congestion is a noted concern in the Plan. 502 ORDINANCE APPROVING REVISION TO THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP OF UNION COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA WHEREAS, the Union County Board of County Commissioners (the “Board”) heretofore enacted the “Unified Development Ordinance of Union County, North Carolina,” including any amendments thereto (the “UDO”) and the official Union County Zoning Map (“Zoning Map”); and WHEREAS, Union County has received rezoning petition (CZ-2025-004) submitted by TMTLA Associates (the “Applicant”), requesting a revision of the Union County Zoning Map by rezoning one parcel totaling 48.592 acres appearing on the tax map as tax parcel 09-417-001M located on Old Waxhaw Monroe Road from RA-40 to R-10 with Conditions; and WHEREAS, the Union County Land Use Board considered and made a recommendation concerning approval or denial of the Rezoning Petition; and WHEREAS, the Board has determined that approval of the Rezoning Petition and rezoning the subject parcels from RA-40 to R-10 with Conditions is reasonable and in the public interest, including for those reasons set forth in the contemporaneously adopted consistency and reasonableness statement.
