stantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent
tests called for in the Contract Documents, and to any
qualifications stated in his recommendation), and that
payment of the amount recommended is due Con-
tractor(s); but by recommending any payment ENGI-
NEER will not thereby be deemed to have represented
that continuous or exhaustive examinations have been
made by ENGINEER to check th.e quality or quantity
of the work or to review the means, methods, se-
quences, techniques or procedures of construction or
safety precautions or programs incident thereto or that
ENGINEER has. made an examination to ascertain
how or for what purposes any Contractor has used the
moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or that
title to any of the work, materials or equipment has

payment to each Contractor and may give written no-
tice to OWNER and the Contractor(s) that the work is

pressed), but any such recommendation and notice
shall be subject to the limitations expressed in para-
graph 1.6.5.

acts or omissions of any Contractor, or subcontractor,
or any of the Contractor(s)' or subcontractors' agents
or employees or any other persons (except ENGI-
NEER's own employees and agents) at the site or oth-
erwise performing any of the Contractor(s)' work; how-
ever, nothing contained in paragraphs 1.6.1 thru 1.6.',

SECTION 6--CONSTRUCTION COST AND
OPINIONS OF COST
6.1.. Construction Cost.
r~
The construction cost of the entire Project (herein re-
ferred to as "Construction CostU) means the total cost
of the entire Project to OWNER, but it will not include
ENGINEER's compensation and expenses, the cost
of land, rights-of-way, or compensation for or damages
to, properties unless this Agreement so specifies, nor
will it include OWNER's legal, accountins, insurance
counseling or auditing services, or interest and financ-
ing charges incurred in connection with the Project.
[Construction Cost is one of the items comprising Proj-
ect Costs which is defined in paragraph 1.2.5.] When
Construction Cost is used as a basis for payment it will
be based on one of tbe foUowing sources with prece-
dence in the order listed for work designed or specified
by ENGINEER:
6.1.1. For completed construction work the total
costs of all work performed as designed or specified
by ENGINEER.
6.1.2. For work designed or specified but Dot con-
structed, tbe lowest bona fide bid received from a qual-
ified bidder for such work; or, if the work is not bid,
the lowest bona fide negotiated proposal for such work.
6.1.3. For work designed or specified but Dot con-
structed upon which DO such bid or proposal is re-
ceived, the most recent estimate of Construction Cost,
Of, if Done is available, ENGINEER's most recent
opinion of probable Construction Cost.
Labor furnished by OWNER for the Project will be
included in the Construction Cost at current market
rates including a reasonable allowance for overhead
and profit. Materials and equipment furnished by
OWNER will be included at current market prices. No
deduction is to be made from ENGINEER's compen-
sation on account of any penalty, liquidated damages,
or othe~_amounts withheld from payments to Contrac-
tOI(5). . ...
6.2. Opinions or Cast.
6.2.1. Since ENGINEER has no control over the cost
of labor, materials, equipment or services furnished by
others, or over the Contractor(s)' methods of deter-
mining prices, or over competitive bidding or market
conditions, his opinions of probable Project Cost and
Construction Cost provided for herein are to be made
on the basis of his experience and qualifications and
represent his best judgment as an experienced and qual-
ified professional engineer t falT!iliar with the construc-
tion industry; but ENGINEER cannot and does not
luarantee that proposals, bids Of actual Project or Con-
struction Cost wiD not vary from opinions of probable
cost prepared by him. If prior to the Bidding or Nego-
tiating Phase OWNER wishes greater assurance as to
Project or Construction Cost he shan employ an inde-
pendent cost estimator as provided in paragraph 3.8.
6.2.2. If a Construction Cost limit is established by
written agreement between OWNER and ENGI-
NEER, the following wiD apply:
6.2.2. I. The acceptance by OWNER at any time
during the Basic Services of a revised opinion of
probable Project or Construction Cost in excess of
the then established cost limit will constitute a cor-
responding revision in the Construction Cost limit
to the extent indicated in such revised opinion.
6.2.2.2. Any Construction Cost limit so established
will include a contingency of ten percent unless an-
other amount is agreed upon in writing.
6.2.2.3. ENGINEER will be permitted to deter-
mine what materials, equipment, component sys-
tems and types of construction are to be included in
the Drawings and Specifications and to make reason-
able adjustments in the extent of the Project to bring
it within the cost limit.
6.2.2.4. If the Bidding or Negotiating Phase has not
commenced within six months after completion of
the Final Design Phase, the established Construction
Cost limit will not be binding on ENGINEER, and
OWNER shall consent to an adjustment in such cost
limit commensurate with any applicable change in
the general level of prices in the construction indus-
try between the date of completion of the Final De-
sign Phase and the date on which proposals or bids
are sougbt.
6.2.2.5. If the lowest bona fide proposal or bid ex-
ceeds the established Construction Cost limit,
OWNER shall (I) give written approval to increase
such cost limit, (2) authorize negotiating or rebidding
the Project within a reasonable time, or (3) cooperate
in revising the Project's extent or quality. In the case
of (3), ENGINEER shan, without additional charge,
modify the Contract Documents as necessary to
bring the Construction Cost within the cost limit.
The providing of such service will be the limit of
ENGINEER's res'ponsibility in this regard and, bav-
Page II of _L~_pages
ins done so, ENGINEER shall be entitled to pay-
ment for his services in accordance with this Agree-
ment.
