This will apply to all excavations. Furthermore, the Contractor will be responsible for the removal of all vegetation as required by the Contract Documents, to include haul-off and disposal. Excess top-soil and spoils shall be removed from the site. Hauling and disposal of these materials shall be included in the Contract.

The Contractor shall be responsible for all surveying to ensure the project is installed per the Construction Documents. Any deviations from the Contract Documents shall be specifically requested via Request for Information (RFI) submitted to the Architect/Engineer of Record.
