Under no circumstances shall a claim for extra cost include a claim for an increase in the CMAR <br />Fee. Approved claims for extra cost, however, will be considered change orders for purposes of <br />determining if the CMAR is entitled to an increase in its Fee under Paragraph 3.3 herein. <br />33.4. If the parties are unable to agree to the reasonable cost and time to perform the change, or are <br />unable to agree as to whether a change occurred, the Owner's representative shall make a unilateral <br />determination regarding the basis of proceeding, subject to dispute resolution at a later time. The <br />CMAR shall proceed with the Work as directed by the Owner's representative. <br />33.5. Should a claim for an increase in the GMP by the CMAR be denied by the Owner the CMAR may <br />request mediation in connection with the dispute resolution rules adopted for this Project. <br />34. DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS <br />34.1. Should the CMAR encounter subsurface or latent conditions, or both at the site materially differing <br />from those shown on the drawings or indicated in the specifications or differing materially from <br />those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in Work of the character <br />provided for in this Contract, the CMAR shall immediately, and in no event later than thirty (30) <br />days later, give notice to the Owner of such conditions before they are disturbed. The Owner and <br />the Project Designer shall thereupon promptly investigate the conditions and if they find that they <br />materially differ from those shown on the drawings or indicated in the specifications, they shall at <br />once make such changes in the drawings and/or specifications as they may find necessary. Any <br />increase or decrease in the Cost of the Work resulting from such changes shall be adjusted in the <br />manner provided herein for adjustments as to extra and /or additional Work and changes. However, <br />neither the Owner nor the Project Designer shall be liable or responsible for additional Work, costs <br />or changes to the Work that could have been reasonably determined from any geotechnical, soils <br />and other reports, surveys and analyses made available for the CMAR's review or that could have <br />been discovered by the CMAR through the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Contract <br />except that Project Designer, Owner, and CMAR shall work in conjunction to establish unit price <br />allowances for any such costs or changes to work and, where appropriate, such unit price <br />allowances may be paid out of the Owner Contingency. <br />35. CORRECTION OF WORK BEFORE FINAL PAYMENT <br />35.1. Any Work, materials, fabricated items or other parts of the Work which have been condemned, <br />rejected, or declared not in accordance with the Contract by the Project Designer shall be promptly <br />removed from the Work site by the CMAR, and shall be immediately replaced by new Work in <br />accordance with the contract at no additional cost to the Owner. Work or property of the Owner, <br />damaged or destroyed by virtue of such faulty Work, shall be made good at the expense of the <br />CMAR. <br />35.2. Correction of condemned Work described above shall commence within seventy -two (72) hours <br />after receipt of notice from the Project Designer, and shall make satisfactory progress until <br />completed. <br />35.3.
