Notice of condemnation shall be given in writing by the Engineer. Such condemned work shall be immediately removed or disposed of to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Failure or neglect on the part of the Engineer to condemn unsatisfactory material or to reject in- ferior workmanship shall in no way release the Contractor, nor shall it be ~onstrued to mean the acceptance of such work nor shall the final acceptance bar the County of~-~~CS_o_C~_ from re- covering damages in case fraud was practiced. Time lost in replacing such improper work shall furnish no ground to the Contractor for claiming an extension of time for'the completion of the work. Incompetent, careless or negligent employes shall be forthwith discharged by the Contractor upon the written request of the Board, or Engineer in charge, and failure to comply with such re- quest shall be sufficient ground for the termination of the contract, as provided for in this Article or Article 4 hereof.

(11) It is further mutually agreed between the parties hereto that no certificate given or pay- ment made under this contract, except the final certificate or final pa~nnent, shall be evidence of the performance of this contract either wholly or in part, and that no payment made shall be con- strued to be an acceptance of defective work or improper materials which may appear within two (2) years after such payments. (12) The work and material covered by this contract shall be at the sole risk of the Contract- or until the same shall have been finally accepted by the Engineer, Board and the-State Highway Engineer, and any damage or loss that may occur or result to the same prior to the final com- pletion and acceptance of said work by the Engineer, Board and the State Highway Engineer, shall fall upon and be made good by the said Contractor.

(14) The Contractor shall be liable for all damages and injury which shall be caused or which shall occur to any person or persons or property whatsoever by reason of any negligence of said Contractor or any of his servants, employes or sub-contractors, or by reason of any breach or viola- tion of any of the provisions of this agreement or any of his duties or obligations thereunder. The Contractor shall also assume all liability for and protect the Board from any damages or claims arising from the use of any patented articles or devices in any part of the work. (151 It is a part of the public policy of the State of Washington that all work by contract or day labor done for it or any political subdivision created by its law, shall be performed in work days of not more than eight hours each, except in cases of extraordinary emergency. No case of B4 -~ extraordinary emergency shall be construed to exist in any case where other labor can be found to take the place of labor which has already been employed for eight hours in any calendar day. In case of the violation of the provisions of this article, the Board shall have the right to cancel this contract without notice, and shall have the right to complete the work in the manner provided in Article 4 hereof. - (16) The Contractor agrees to execut an/d~ fiirnish to the Board a good and sufficient corporate surety bond to be payable to the County of~7 ~~~0 ~.__._._, and to be in the penal sum of the full amount of the Contract, conditioned that he -will perform the work upon the terms, within the time, and in accordance with the, contract, profiles, maps, plans and specifications, and that lie will in- % / demnify the County of...~:'~.~~t~-~~ ~ -~, ----•------------•----------------------------••-against any direct or indirect damages that shall be suffered or claimed for injury to persons or property during the construc- tion and improvement of such highway and until the same. is accepted, and further conditioned as required by law for the payment of all laborers, mechanics, sub-contractors and materialmen, and all persons who shall supply such person or persons or sub-contractor with provisions or supplies .for the carrying on of such work.

Stakes and markings set or made by the Engineer to mark out the work, shall be carefully preserved by the Contractor; in case such stakes, markings, or references .are carelessly destroyed or defaced by the Contractor or his employees, the expense of replacing same .will be deducted from any money due or to become due~the Contractor. CROWN OR CROSS SECTION OF ROADWAY: The cross-section of the roadway shall be as shown in the plans, except at intersecting highways on curves or wherever to insure correct drainage or for other reasons, changes may be directed. AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF INSPECTORS The Engineer may appoint assistants to inspect all materials used and all work done. Such inspection may extend to any or all parts of the work and to the preparation or manufacture of the materials to be used. The assistants will not be authorized to revoke, alter, enlarge or relax the pro- visions of these specifications. An assistant is placed on the work to set the necessary lines and grades and to keep the Engineer informed as to the progress of the work and the manner in which it is being done; also to call the attention of the Contractor to any infringements upon plans or speci- fications. He will not be authorized to approve or accept any portion of the work or to issue in- structions contrary to the plans and specifications. The assistant will have authority to reject defective material and to suspend any work that is being improperly done, subject to the final decision of the Engineer. The assistant will exercise such additional authority as may from time to time be especially delegated to him by the Engineer. FINAL CLEANING UP The Contractor shall remove, at his own expense, from the highway and from the adjoining property, temporary structures and all rubbish and surplus materials resulting from the work which may have accumulated during its prosecution. All work, including shoulders, ditches, and slopes, shall be neatly dressed and cleaned up on completion, according to the Engineer's direction, and shall be left in a neat and orderly condition. SUSPENSION OF WORK: The Engineer shall have the authority to suspend the work on account of the default of the Contractor, unfavorable weather conditions, or any other condition which, in the judgment of the Engineer makes it impossible to secure first-class results. The Contractor shall immediately respect the written order of the Engineer to suspend work wholly or on any particular section of the road. If it becomes necessary to stop the work for a protracted period, the Contractor shall take every precaution to prevent any damage or unreasonable deterioration of the work during the time it is closed down. The Contractor shall not make any claim or demand for damage by reason of such suspensions in the work, but the date. for completion tivill be extended by the period of such suspen- sion. MEASUREMENT OF QUANTITIES The determination of the quantities of work performed will be made by the Engineer based on measurements taken by him or his assistants. In computing volumes, the method of average end areas C4 will be used for excavation and embankment. Other quantities will be computed in the units used in the proposal form, according to well organized engineering principles, and no local rules or cus- toms will be considered. NO WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGIiTS: Should an error be discovered in the estimate, or should conclusive proofs of dishonesty on the part of the Contractor be discovered in the work, after the final payment has been made, the Board reserves the right to claim and recover by process of law, such sums as may be sufficient to correct the error,,or make good the defects in the work resulting from the Contractor's dishonesty. FURNISHING DATA: The Contractor shall furnish the Engineer with such data as' may be required to enable him to keep an accurate cost of the work as it progresses. He shall furnish a statement of the number and rate of pay of all laborers and teams employed each day upon the work; also copies of all equip- ment and material bills, or a statement in lieu thereof, showing the amount of equipment and ma- terials received on the work and cost thereof, together with such other information as may be re- quired. CONSTRUCTION CAMPS: The Contractor herein is required and he hereby agrees to conduct and maintain all con- struction camps in accordance with the rules and regulations of the County and State -Board of Health, and it is understood that the work .done under this contract will not be accepted by the County until all camps have been placed and left in a sanitary condition. Special reference is here- by made to the rules and regulations of the State Board of Health pertaining to Industrial camps. C6 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR "PERMANENT ffiGHWAYB" The special provisions hereinafter contained shall supercede any provisions of the Standard Speei- fieations in conflict herewith. LUMP SUM CONTRACT: The lump sum price bid will be considered full compensation for the full compliance with the terms of the contract, plans and specifications and the completion of the entire work covered by them. In the preparation of the plans, the classification and quantities of the various items of work shown thereon were determined as accurately as possible from the Engineer's best judgment; however, the county assumes no responsibility for the correctness of them and no additional compensation will be allowed, or deductions be made on account of any increase or decrease in the quantities or elassifi- eation of work performed, except as provided for in the contract and specifications for "Alterations" and "Extra Work." Where reference is made elsewhere in the specification to payment at the contract. price per unit of work complete in place, it shall be understood to apply only to "extra work" and shall not apply to the work to'be performed under the lump sum bid. EXTRA WORE No extra work shall be done except upon the written order of the Engineer, and when so ordered, the value of the work shall be computed by the Engineer and his determination shall be final and con- clusive and binding upon the Contractor. In the event of extra work arising for which no bid has been taken, and agreement cannot other- wise be reached as to payment therefor, the Engineer and Board shall have the right to order the same done upon the basis of Force Account. Payments for extra work done under force account shall be the amount of the actual reasonable cost to the Contractor for materials and labor, with an addi- tion of ten per cent (10%), which ten per cent shall cover all overhead expense, profit and use of tools and equipment, except. that the ten per cent shall not apply to industrial insurance and medical aid. FUNDS In the event that there are not sufficient funds to the credit of the County in the Permanent Highway Fund, then such .additional amount as may be necessary to complete the full amount of the lump sum contract, may be paid by County warrants drawn on the Road District, or Road and Bridge Funds of the County; said payments to be made as otherwise provided for in the contract. C6 SPECIFICATIONS. FOR GRAVEL SURFACING TWO-COURSES SUBGRADE: - Immediately in advance of depositing the surfacing material, the subgrade shall be brought to the proper line, grade, and cross-section. Shoulders shall be formed true to line and grade, and free from humps, depressions or other inequalities. All ruts and inequalities shall be levelled and filled by means of a log drag, or other approved device. Any existing ruts which contain storm water shall be drained as far as possible in advance of the preparation of the subgrade. The Contractor shall con- stantly keep the subgrade in good repair, draining ruts, and shaping the subgrade by dragging or other means as may be found necessary in order to provide a uniform and well compacted subgrade. Any stones exceeding two (2) inches in the largest dimension which are found upon the subgrade in advance of depositing the surfacing material shall be removed by the Contractor and. the cost of removing same shall be included in the contract price per cubic yard of surfacing material in place. DESCRIPTION: This surfacing shall consist of two courses, having the dimensions and cross-section shown on the plans, being composed of screened gravel containing natural soil as binder, constructed on the subgrade as hereinbefore specified, in accordance with these specifications. MATERL~L : ' The gravel to be used for surfacing shall be of reasonably uniform quality throughout, free from soft or disintegrated stones, or other objectionable matter, and shall be approved by the Engineer. The surfacing material shall contain such a percentage of clay or other binding material as the Engi- neer may direct, but if in the judgment of the Engineer there is an excess of such fine material, such excess shall be screened out and wasted. In no case shall the clay content including binding material exceed fifteen (15) per cent. The gravel shall be screened by means of a rotary screen to meet the following requirements: Base Course. Material for the base cours~ pass a one and one-half (11/2) inch circular- open- - ing, and shall be well. graded from that size t - ('P~+ oa-mAtP~' ~ ~ cn°-~„-rte, r ,L/1i-1 ,..,:.l,~,rniz i~aa~.,°Y,°„"~. 3 ~ // Top Course. Material for the top course shall pass a circular opening, and shall be well. graded from that size to dust, containing not to exceed thirty-five (35) per cent of material pasting a one-quarter (1/4) inch circular opening. CONSTRUCTION METHODS: The surfacing material shall be deposited upon the subgrade to the amount, width, and cross-sec- tion, shown on the cross-section. The spreading shall be done as soon as the surfacing material is dumped, and the material shall be uniformly distributed. In order to secure a maximum amount of uniformly smooth and compacted surface the Contractor will be required, as far as practicable, to do his hauling over the surfacing as it is placed; to construct the surfacing beginning at the point of loading and working away from that point; to construct the entire base course from any setup .before beginning construction of the top course from that particu- lar setup ; and to thoroughly drag the .surfacing continuously during the course of construction, in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer. FILLER Clay. or other suitable binding material shall be added in such quantities not to exceed the total clay content of fifteen (15) per cent as may be directed by the Engineer, so -that the surfacing mate- rial .will pack firmly under traffic. 8 a-l i ~;~~ FINLSHINt,I SHOULDERS Shoulders shall be constructed as shown on the plans. After the surfacing has been placed and compacted, the earth shoulders shall be levelled down and the entire roadbed trimmed up so as to provide a uniformly crowned and well drained cross- surfa a orlmadetto protruedelby•thi~operation, shall be removed from- he roadbed and p acedtalong the edge of the right of way. MEASUREMENT AND .PAYMENT The .amount of surfacing material to be placed on the roadway may be increased or decreased at the option of the .Engineer as the conditions may require. The gravel will be measured on the trucks or wagons at the point of delivery on the road. Payment for surfacing will be made at the contract price per cubic yard in place, which price will be full compensation for repairing the subgrade and constructing and finishing shoulders, furnish- ing all gravel, binder, and all tools, equipment, labor, and other incidentals necessary to complete the work. r--~ Rat PROPOSAL To the Board of County Commissioners, ..dl~.~:',../.~~.:~....._Connty, Washington, .

OPINION N0. 1791. April 21, 1927. Honorable C. ~. Clausen, Supervisor of Municipal Corporations,. Olympia, Washingt on. dear Sir: You~hav® inquired whether the provision of chapter 301, haws of 1927, reinstating the 80 per cent limitation upon the ezpenditjzre of road and bridge and road di strict funds, will be effective as to the expenditure of 1927 fazes or whether it can. have no effect un- til January 1, 1928. `.~'he act provides that no county official shall, ezcept for emerg®ncies, make any expenditure from or incur arty liability agai~tst the funds mentioned in eza®es of 80 per cent of the amount of the taxes levied therefor during the current fiscal year unless there is cash on hand in the fund over and above such 80 per cent suf- fieient to meet the same. Although chapter 301 is declared in the title to take effect immediately, apparently the emergency clause was omitted from the body of the act, eo that it takes effect June 9, 1927. ~fe th~r~, nevertheless, 3;t will be operative as to expenditures from the road `- and bridge and ro ad district funds for the remainder of the fi~eal year 1927. Your inquiry falls within the princip3.e of the opinion to your office of dune 2b, 191'7. t}ps. ~tty Gen., 1917-18, p. 102. Yours respectfully, E. W. PERSON assistant Attorney General . ]~,~~BB~ dune 30, 19E7. , Honorable C. ~. Clausen, Supervisor of Bdunicipal Corporat ions, Olympia, Washington. Dear Sirs You have inquired as to whether in computing the 80 per cent limitation imposes upon road and bridge fund and road district eg-~ penditures by chapter-301, yaws of 1927, the computation should be based upon the total amount of the budget or the total amount to b® raised by taxation. For example, if the total budget for 192^ was $600,000.00 but there was a surplus of cash and estimated revenue of $100,000.00 in the fund leaving 500,000.00 to be raised by tax levy, the question is which of these figures should be used in ar~ riving at the 80 per cent which may be expended without Dash in the farad to offsBt the amount of such expenditure. Chapter 301 provides that counties shall be limited in the mating of expenditures to the amount of detailed budget items or classes, thus permitting liabilities to be incurred to the fall amount of the budget, and th®n farther provides: "In addition to the above limitations neither the county comM missioners nor any other county official shall make any expenditure and/or incur any liability ezcept for emergencies of the Yind and in the manner provided in the second paragraph of section 6 hereof, for any of the purposes for which road and bridge or road district funds may be properly expended, for any amount in excess of eighty (80) yer centum of the amount of the taxes levied for collection durin~z .the current fiscal year for either the county road and budge fund dr any of the road district funds until the clash receipts from taxation or otherwise during such current fiscal year paid into such fund against which liabilities are sought to be incurred shall exceed --- G . _ ,. P s ~' , Ho~• C • ~ • Clausen r 2 e~uY16 flV , 194! • such eighty {80) per centm~ of said .tag levy by an amount not less than the amount of expenditure and/or liabilities in excess of said eighty {80) per centum of said tag levy sought to be made and/or in- curred.'~ This provision is aubat&ntially a reenactment of section 6417, Re. Comp. Stat. {Sec. 5, ch. 151, Z. 1913) which limtited expenditures to 80 per cent of tithe amount levied in the fiscal year.." It is our opinion th at the language "of the amount of the ts$es levied for collection during the current fiscal year" as used in shap- ter 301 is too plain to require resort to construction. This limitation is entirely independent of the budget and is based exclusively upon the amount of taxes levied. That term, obviously, does not embrace su rplus cash on hand from-the preceding year or miscellaneous receipts from sour- ces other than taxation. You are- therefore advised that the 80 per Dent limitation imposed by chapter 301 must be competed upon the total affiomlt of money levied and to be raised by taxation for the current fiscal year. This doss not mesa, of course, that the surplus cash and receipts from other sources cannot be expended.-Saab funds may. be expended in, their entirety and without regard to the 80 per cent limitation. Ops. Atty. Gen. 191920, page 53. In the specific example given the 80 per cent limitation should be computed upon the basis of 500,000..00. Yours respeatfally, E . W .
