determined. The District intends to phase the project in alignment with the amount of funding

received. The District has determined that thirteen (13) buildings on the Rancho Cucamonga campus

meet the need for building automation system retrofits. Phase 1 of the project will include buildings

in alignment with the funding received. Campus building locations referred to as Wargin Hall (WH),

Old Administration (AD), and Vocational Student Support (VSS) have been identified as a project

starting point.

Contract, Contractor is an independent contractor, and not an officer, employee, agent, partner, or joint

15. EXCAVATIONS OVER FOUR (4) FEET: If this Contract includes excavations over four (4) feet,

Contractor shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify District, in

writing, of any: (i) material that Contractor believes may be material that is hazardous waste, as

defined in §25117 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II,

or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law; (ii) subsurface or latent

physical conditions at the site differing from those indicated; or (iii) unknown physical conditions at

the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally

recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract. District shall promptly

investigate the conditions, and if it finds that the conditions do materially so differ, or do involve

hazardous waste, and cause a decrease or increase in Contractor's cost of, or the time required for,

performance of any part of the work shall issue a change order under the procedures described in the

Contract. In the event that a dispute arises between District and Contractor whether the conditions

materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in Contractor's cost of, or

time required for, performance of any part of the work, Contractor shall not be excused from any

scheduled completion date provided for by the contract, but shall proceed with all Services to be

times, as required by conditions and progress of the work, all necessary safeguards, signs, barriers,

lights, and security persons for protection of workers and the public, and shall post danger signs

work or of adjoining property, Contractor, without special instruction or authorization from District, is

permitted to act at its discretion to prevent such threatened loss or injury.

19. FORCE MAJEURE: Contractor shall be excused from performance hereunder during the time and to

the extent that it is prevented from obtaining delivery, or performing by act of God, fire, strike, loss, or

shortage of transportation facilities, lock-out, commandeering of materials, product, plant, or facilities

by the government, when satisfactory evidence thereof is presented to District, provided that it is

satisfactorily established that the non-performance is not due to the fault or neglect of Contractor.

20. CORRECTION OF ERRORS: Contractor shall perform, at its own cost and expense and without

reimbursement from District, any work necessary to correct errors or omissions which are caused by

Contractor’s failure to comply with the standard of care required herein.

access to the work wherever it is in preparation or in progress. Contractor shall provide safe and

proper facilities for such access.

22. OCCUPANCY: District reserves the right to occupy buildings at any time before formal Contract

completion and such occupancy shall not constitute final acceptance or approval of any part of the

Services covered by this Contract, nor shall such occupancy extend the date specified for completion of

the Services.

23. PAYMENT: Upon completion of the Work, Contractor shall submit an invoice for the full lump sum

payment amount. Payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after District’s verification of

completion and approval of the invoice. District may withhold or deduct from any payment an

amount necessary to protect District from loss because of:

a) Any sums expended by District in performing any of Contractor’s obligations under the

Contract which Contractor has failed to perform or has performed inadequately;

b) Defective work not remedied;

c) Stop payment notices as allowed by state law;

d) Reasonable doubt that the Services can be completed for the unpaid balance of the Total

documentation as required by the Contract or by District during the prosecution of the

District for which Contractor is liable under the Contract; and

i) Any other sums which District is entitled to recover from Contractor under the terms of the

Contract or pursuant to state law, including §1727 of the California Labor Code. The failure

by District to deduct any of these sums from it payment does not constitute a waiver of

District’s right to such sums.



24. CHANGE IN SCOPE OF WORK: Any change in the scope of the Services, method of

performance, nature of materials or price thereof, or any other matter materially affecting the

performance or nature of the Services shall not be paid for or accepted unless such change, addition, or

deletion is approved in advance and in writing by a valid change order executed by District.

Contractor specifically understands, acknowledges, and agrees that District shall have the right to

request any alterations, deviations, reductions, or additions to the Project or Services, and the cost

thereof shall be added to or deducted from the amount of the Contract Price by fair and reasonable

valuations. Contractor also agrees to provide District with all information requested to substantiate the

cost of the change order and to inform District whether the Services will be done by Contractor or a

subcontractor. In addition to any other information requested, Contractor shall submit, prior to

approval of the change order, its request for a time extension (if any), as well as all information

necessary to substantiate its belief that such change will delay the completion of the Services. If

Contractor fails to submit its request for a time extension or the necessary supporting information, it

shall be deemed to have waived its right to request such extension.

25. INDEMNIFICATION: To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall defend, indemnify,

and hold harmless District, Architect, Architect's consultants, the Inspector of Record, the State of

California, and their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, and volunteers (the

requirements in accordance with Labor Code §§1725.5 and 1771.1 is a material obligation of

Contractor and all of its subcontractors (of any tier) under the Contract Documents. The foregoing

includes, without limitation, compliance with DIR registration requirements at all times during

performance of the Work by Contractor and all of its subcontractors of any tier. The failure of

Contractor and all subcontractors of any tier to be properly registered with DIR at all times during

by the Labor Commissioner/ Department of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE).

Department of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE).

records showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and

overtime hours paid each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman,

compliance monitoring and enforcement.

received. The District has determined that thirteen (13) buildings on the Rancho Cucamonga

campus meet the need for building automation system retrofits. Phase 1 of the project will

include buildings in alignment with the funding received. Campus building locations referred to

as Wargin Hall (WH), Old Administration (AD), and Vocational Student Support (VSS) have

been identified as a project starting point.

Contractor should plan on leveraging all available Investor Owned Utilities (IOU) incentive

dollars on this project and to do so, should install products which are approved by SCE. In

specifying retrofit solutions, contractors should also ensure that the equipment meets the

minimum standards for each space type where a retrofit is performed.

The overall engineer’s estimated construction cost is $335,000.00 - $345,000.00. The scheduled

construction duration is anticipated to be approximately three (3) months. The anticipated start

date is April 1, 2015.
