Said Construction & Material Specifications are referenced herein as the "Standard Specifications". Requirements, terms, conditions and covenants of the Contract, Instructions to Bidders, Supplemental Specifications, and Bid Documents shall control over conflicting terms found in the Standard Specifications. Wherever in the contract documents reference is made to the CMS, the provisions of the referenced Item shall have the full force and effect as if rewritten herein. However, the method of measurements, basis of payment, and pay items shall be directed in the material specifications or bid proposal forms. The Contractor shall be responsible for providing his own copy of the CMS. Wherever the following terms appear in the Standard Specifications, said terms shall have the following meaning: A. B. C. D. The terms "State", "State of Ohio", "Department", and "Department of Transportation" refer to the County, acting through its Board of Commissioners . The terms "Director" and "DDD" refers to the Board of County Commissioners or it's duly authorized representative. The terms "DCE" and "Engineer" refers to the Medina County Engineer fulfilling his statutorial obligation to the County Commissioners. The term "Laboratory" refers to such testing laboratory or consultant as shall be designated by the County Engineer or by the County Engineer's duly authorized representative. A numerical designation for an "Item" referenced herein refers to the description of said Item number as provided by the Standard Specifications.

AS PER PLAN DESIGNATION For the last several years the "As Per Plan" designation has been added to some item descriptions in the proposal to assist the contractors to easily identify standard items that have been altered by plan notes. The "As Per Plan" designation has proven to be a very useful tool for the Contractors. However, its use was never intended to relieve the Contractors of their responsibility to read, bid and construct all items in accordance with all governing plan notes. Therefore, the absence of an "As Per Plan" designation on some item descriptions in the proposal for which there are clear and controlling plan notes does not relieve the Contractors of the responsibility to read, bid and construct those particular items In accordance with the governing plan notes
