Terracon will not be responsible for scheduling our services and <br /> will not be responsible for tests that are not performed due to a failure to schedule our services on the <br /> project. It is the contractor's responsibility to inform us of work that is being conducted on-site that may <br /> require our services. Please also note Terracon must be notified at least 24 hours in advance of the next <br /> scheduled workday or must be notified that work has been cancelled prior to our site visit. <br /> Our services specifically exclude job site safety responsibility, and our services do not relieve any <br /> contractor/subcontractor from complying with project specifications. <br />
