5. Night, Sunday, and Holiday Work:[78] No night, Sunday, nor
holiday work requiring the presence of an engineer or inspector
will be permitted except in case of emergency, and then only to
such an extent as is absolutely necessary and with the written
permission of the Engineer; provided that this clause shall not
operate in the case of a gang organized for regular and continuous
night, Sunday, or holiday work.
6. Absence of Engineer or Inspector. Any work done without lines,
levels, and instructions having been given by the Engineer or
without the supervision of an assistant or inspector, will not be
estimated or paid for except when such work is authorized by the
Engineer in writing. Work so done may be ordered removed and
replaced at the Contractor’s sole cost and expense.
7. Absence of Contractor. During the absence of the Contractor he
shall at all times have a duly authorized representative on the
work. The Contractor shall give written notice to the Commission
of the name and address of said representative and shall state
where and how such representative can be reached, at any and all
hours, whether by day or night.
Whenever the Contractor or his representative is not present at
any place on the work where it may be necessary to give orders or
directions, such orders or directions will be given by the
Engineer and they shall be received and promptly obeyed by the
superintendent or foreman who may have immediate charge of the
particular work in relation to which the order may be given.
8. Commencing Work. The Contractor agrees to begin the work
covered by this contract within —— days of the execution of the
contract and to prosecute the same with all due diligence and to
entirely complete the work within —— days.
It is understood and agreed that time is of the essence of this
contract, and that a failure on the part of the Contractor to
complete the work herein specified within the time specified will
result in great loss and damage to said Sanitary District and that
on account of the peculiar nature of such loss it is difficult, if
not impossible, to accurately ascertain and definitely determine
the amount thereof.
9. Liquidated Damages. It is therefore covenanted and agreed that
in case the said Contractor shall fail or neglect to complete the
work herein specified on or before the date hereinbefore fixed for
completion, the said Contractor shall and will pay the said
Sanitary District the sum of —— Dollars for each and every day the
Contractor shall be in default in the time of completion of this
contract.
