GENERAL CONDITIONS <br /> GC-25 USE OF FIRE HYDRANTS <br /> Prior to any use of fire hydrants by the Contractor, a permit shall be obtained from the <br /> Water Services Division in accordance with Sections 20 and 23 of Chapter 64 of the City Code. <br /> Water Services Division is located at 2600 North Jasper Street; phone 217-875-5705. The <br /> permit will be issued at no charge to the Contractor. <br /> GC-26 TERMINATION FOR PUBLIC CONVENIENCE <br /> The City may, by written order, terminate the contract or any portion thereof after <br /> determining that for reasons beyond either City or Contractor control, the Contractor is prevented <br /> from proceeding with or completing the work as originally contracted for, and that termination <br /> would, therefore, be in the public interest. Such reasons for termination may include, but need <br /> not be necessarily limited to, Executive Orders of the President relating to prosecution of war or <br /> national defense, national emergency which creates a serious shortage of materials, orders from <br /> duly constituted authorities relating to energy conservation, cessation of funding from third <br /> parties and restraining orders or injunctions obtained by third-party citizen action resulting from <br /> national or local environmental protection laws or where the issuance of such order or injunction <br /> is primarily caused by acts or omissions of persons or agencies other than the Contractor. <br /> When contracts, or any portion thereof, are definitely terminated or cancelled, and the <br /> Contractor released before all items of work included in his/her contract have been completed, <br /> payment will be made for the actual number of units of items of work completed at contract unit <br /> prices, or as specified for partially completed items, and no claims for loss of anticipated profits <br /> will be considered. Reimbursement for organization of the work and moving equipment to and <br /> from the job will be considered where the volume of the work completed is too small to <br /> compensate the Contractor for these expenses under the contract unit prices, the intent being that <br /> an equitable settlement will be made with the Contractor. <br /> Acceptable materials, obtained by the Contractor for the work, that have been inspected, <br /> tested and accepted by the Engineer, and that are not incorporated in the work may, at the option <br /> of the Engineer, be purchased from the Contractor at actual costs as shown by receipted bills and <br /> actual cost records at such points of delivery as may be designated by the Engineer. <br /> Termination of a contract, as stated above will not relieve the Contractor or his/her surety <br /> of the responsibility of replacing defective work as required by the contract." <br /> END OF GENERAL CONDITIONS <br /> 38 <br />
