demonstration program, receiving a $1.3 Million muck removal restoration and air curtain. The air
curtain was in effect for several months when Hurricane Irma destroyed it. The canal has
subsequently been cleared of Hurricane Debris. A majority of residents of canal 266 indicated a
desire for the air curtain to be replaced, and that they would pay the assessment the County is now
setting up to collect funds through an MSBU program to fund the operations and maintenance.

Documents. Engineer's review of the Contractor's submittals shall not relieve the Contractor of
the obligations under Paragraphs 3.3, 3.5 and 3.12. Engineer's review shall not constitute
approval of safety precautions or, unless otherwise specifically stated by Engineer, of any
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. Engineer's approval of a
specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component.

9.5 Decisions to Withhold Approval
9.5.1 Engineer may decline to approve an Application for Payment if, in his opinion, the
application is not adequately supported. If the Contractor and Engineer cannot agree on a revised
amount, Engineer shall process the Application for the amount it deems appropriate. Engineer
may also decline to approve any Application for Payment because of subsequently discovered
evidence or subsequent inspections. It may nullify, in whole or part, any approval previously made
to such extent as may be necessary in its opinion because of: (1) defective Work not remedied;
(2) third party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims; (3)
failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials, or
equipment; (4) reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance
of the Contract Sum; (5) damage to Engineer, Sustainability Director, the Owner, or another
contractor working at the project; (6) reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed
within the contract time; (7) persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract

From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a progress payment, a retainage in
accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt Payment Act, Chapter 218, Florida
Statutes will be deducted and retained by the Owner until the final payment is made. The balance
of the amount payable, less all previous payments, shall be approved for payment. .1 It is
understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or receive progress
payment based on quantities of Work in excess of those provided in the proposal or covered by
approved change orders, except when such excess quantities have been determined by Engineer
and Sustainability Director to be a part of the final quantity for the item of Work in question.
.2 No progress payment shall bind the Owner to the acceptance of any materials or Work
in place, as to quality or quantity. All progress payments are subject to correction at the time of

shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.6.7 All material and work covered by partial payments made shall thereupon become the sole
property of the Owner, and by this provision shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor
from the sole responsibility for the materials and Work upon which payments have been made or

Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the inspection discloses any item,
whether or not included on the list, which is not in accordance with the requirements of the

insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and
commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor
considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor and Engineer shall jointly prepare a list
as provided under Subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occupancy or use
shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined
by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no agreement is reached, by
decision of Sustainability Director.

Engineer and Contractor shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be
used in order to determine and record the condition of the Work.

3. Follow-up Inspections —The Contractor's Quality Control Representative
will inspect the work daily to assure the continuing conformance of the work
to the workmanship standards established during the preparatory and initial
inspections.
Additionally, as a part of the follow-up inspection, sign -off sheets will be
utilized as often as possible. The intent of these sheets is to achieve
concurrence from other trade contractors and responsible parties that
ensuing work can indeed commence over underlying work. This will
prevent oversights and omissions which could elevate costs. Sign -off
sheets shall be used for, but not be limited to, concrete, drywall, ceilings,
painting, roofing substrates and flooring. These reports are to be
generated by the Contractor and submitted to Engineer Superintendent for
approval prior to the start-up of work.
Failure to generate a sign -off sheet or to attain proper signatures prior to
covering up underlying work may affect payment for that piece of work if
ensuing problems are detected or not. This disciplinary action shall be
carried out via the Nonconformance Report. (See Section 1.4.13 of this
plan.)
Note: The Contractor shall be responsible to record these inspections and all
other project related activities encountered throughout the day on the
Contractor Daily Quality Control Report.
4. Completion Inspections —Upon completion of a given feature of the work,
the Contractor's Quality Control Representative will meet with the
Sustainability Director representative Engineer, if he so desires to attend,
to perform an inspection of the completed work. Nonconforming items will
be identified and corrected prior to commencement of the next operation.
Note: The Contractor shall conduct and report corrections of this inspection which
shall be a required submittal.
5. Follow -On Inspections —Upon execution of the contractor's completion
inspection in elements of the work which result in concealment; such as,
ceiling and drywall installations, the Contractor shall schedule and conduct
multi -trade or singular inspections prior to covering installation.
Note: Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting.
6. Pre -Final Inspection —Upon substantial completion of the project work
Engineer shall coordinate and conduct a universal inspection of all areas
and elements of the work. The Sustainability Director may be represented
if she so desires. This inspection shall be completed at least (15) days
prior to the final substantial completion inspection which shall be conducted
by Engineer. All deficiencies and incomplete work should be completed
prior to the final substantial completion inspection.

The Contractor will provide personnel and equipment to perform the operational
tests and check-out of the equipment, facilities or equipment constructed,
fabricated or installed under this Contract. The Sustainability Director
representative Engineer will coordinate and witness all such tests. Notification
should be given at least ten (10) days in advance of the scheduled tests.
C. FINAL INSPECTION
Engineer will coordinate and attend all final inspections of the work. The
Sustainability Director may be represented if she so desires. Prior to requesting a
final inspection, all tests for the equipment and systems must be completed.
See Section 01700 for contract closeout.
REPORTING
Maintaining accurate and retrievable records is extremely important in the Quality
Assurance Program. These records will act as a main source of information in the present
and in the future for the entire Sustainability Director team. The main report that will be
utilized to provide this information is the Daily Quality Control Report. Nonconformance
Reports may also be issued.
A. DAILY QUALITY CONTROL REPORT
The Daily Quality Control Report shall be used to document the summary of daily
inspection activities performed by the Contractor's designated Quality Control
Representative. It shall include any of the steps of inspection that are performed
that day, all test monitoring and any rework of nonconforming items. The daily
Quality Control Report section of the Daily Superintendent's Report will be
routinely used for daily reporting requirements. When the magnitude or complexity
necessitates such, a more separate and comprehensive form will be used.
Reference Contractor's Daily Report, and as needed Contractor Daily Quality
Control Report, Section 01385.
B. NONCONFORMANCE REPORT
Nonconformance Reports will be issued for work that is found to be in
nonconformance with the contract documents or the referenced quality standards.
The report will be issued by Sustainability Director.
It is not the intent to routinely and repeatedly issue nonconformance reports, but
to issue them only after normal enforcement standards have been exhausted, or if
the work performed is a detriment to the project.

A copy of the Nonconformance Report will be forwarded to the Site Project
Manager for his information and/or action. It should also be included in the
Contractor's Daily Quality Report package for general review.
Nonconformance Reports will be signed off once the deficient item or items have
adequately been corrected. This will be done by the issuing Superintendent and cm
Project Manager. These sign -offs will be included with a corresponding corrective
action taken. Significant nonconformance needs to be addressed to prevent
recurrence. The signed -off report will also be submitted for review.
Work activities affected by a Nonconformance Report will proportionally counter -
affect payments. Whether that be partial or full retainage will be left up to the
discretion of Sustainability Director.
AUDITS
A. Sustainability Director may choose at its option to perform Contractor audits of
their Contractor Quality Control Plan at any time. Reports of these audit results
will be forwarded to the Project Manager for his action. Any action items noted
during an audit for the Contractor will be followed up and documented to insure
compliance and avoid recurrence.
SUMMARY
The intention of this plan is to create a system of checks and balances that will minimize
delays caused by rework and a lack of planning and maximize production and insure that
the finished product is one that the entire construction team can pride themselves in.
These goals can be achieved by giving the Owner exactly what he has bought. The Owner
will expect no more and through Quality Assurance, the construction team will provide no
less.
