§ 6.3 OWNER'S RIGHT TO CLEAN UP
<br />If a dispute arises among the Contractor, separate contractors and the Owner as to the responsibility under their
<br />respective contracts for maintaining the premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish, the
<br />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 The 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 />§ 7.3 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.
<br />§ 7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be
<br />based on one of the following methods:
<br />.1 Mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to
<br />permit evaluation;
<br />.2 Unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon;
<br />.3 Cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or
<br />percentage fee; or
<br />.4 As provided in Section 7.3.7.
<br />§ 7.3.4 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally
<br />contemplated are materially changed in a proposed Change Order or Construction Change Directive so that
<br />application of such unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or
<br />Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted.
<br />§ 7.3.5 Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in
<br />the Work involved and advise the Architect of the Contractor's agreement or disagreement with the method, if any,
<br />provided in the Construction Change Directive for determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or
<br />Contract Time.
<br />§ 7.3.6 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the Contractor's agreement therewith,
<br />including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall
<br />be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
