§ 6.2.2 If part of the Contractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by
<br />the Owner or a separate contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly
<br />report to the Architect apparent discrepancies or defects in such other construction that would render it unsuitable
<br />for such proper execution and results. Failure of the Contractor so to report shall constitute an acknowledgment that
<br />the Owner's or separate contractor's completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the
<br />Contractor's Work, except as to defects not then reasonably discoverable.
<br />§ 6.2.3 The Owner shall be reimbursed by the Contractor for costs incurred by the Owner which are payable to a
<br />separate contractor because of delays, improperly timed activities or defective construction of the Contractor. The
<br />Owner shall be responsible to the Contractor for costs incurred by the Contractor because of delays, improperly
<br />timed activities, damage to the Work or defective construction of a separate contractor.
<br />§ 6.2.4 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage wrongfully caused by the Contractor to completed or partially
<br />completed construction or to property of the Owner or separate contractors as provided in Section 10.2.5.
<br />§ 6.2.5 The Owner and each separate contractor shall have the same responsibilities for cutting and patching as are
<br />described for the Contractor in Section 3.14.
<br />§ 6.3 OWNER'S RIGHT TO CLEAN UP
<br />§ 6.3.1 If a dispute arises among the Contractor, separate contractors and the Owner as to the responsibility under
<br />their respective contracts for maintaining the premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish,
<br />the Owner may clean up and the Architect will allocate the cost among those responsible.
<br />ARTICLE 7 CHANGES IN THE WORK
<br />§ 7.1 GENERAL
<br />§ 7.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the
<br />Contract, by Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work, subject to the
<br />limitations stated in this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
<br />§ 7.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement among the Owner, Contractor and Architect; a Construction
<br />Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and Architect and may or may not be agreed to by the
<br />Contractor; an order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by the Architect alone.
<br />§ 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, and the
<br />Contractor shall proceed promptly, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order, Construction Change Directive
<br />or order for a minor change in the Work.
<br />§ 7.2 CHANGE ORDERS
<br />§ 7.2.1 A Change Order is a written instrument prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner, Contractor and
<br />Architect, stating their agreement upon all of the following:
<br />.1 change in the Work;
<br />.2 the amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum; and
<br />.3 the extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time.
<br />§ 7.2.2 Methods used in determining adjustments to the Contract Sum may include those listed in Section 7.3.3.
<br />§ 7.3 CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVES
<br />§ 7.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written order prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner and
<br />Architect, directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum or Contract
<br />Time, or both. The Owner may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes
<br />in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions, the
<br />Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly.
<br />§ 7.3.2 A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change
<br />Order.
