<br /> shall include the requirements of the most current edition of the CAGC Safety and Health
<br /> Manual [or the AGC Accident Prevention Manual in Construction], or equivalent requirements,
<br /> and shall fully comply with all Federal, State, and local laws, rules, regulations, and building
<br /> code requirements relating to the prevention of accidents or injuries to persons on or about the
<br /> location of the Work.
<br /> All trenches, excavations, or other hazards in the vicinity of the Work shall be well barricaded,
<br /> and properly lighted at night. When Work requires closing of an area normally used by the
<br /> Owner or the public, the Contractor shall furnish, erect, and maintain temporary barricades, and
<br /> properly light the area. The Contractor shall comply with any directions and public authorities in
<br /> this respect.
<br /> 7.20 The Contractor shall designate a responsible officer or employee as safety inspector,
<br /> whose duties shall include accident prevention on the Project as well as implementation of the
<br /> Contractor's safety measures and safety programs on the Project. The name of the safety
<br /> inspector shall be made known to the Designer and the Owner at the preconstruction
<br /> conference.
<br /> 7.21 In emergencies affecting the safety of persons, the Work, or property at the Project site or
<br /> adjacent thereto, the Contractor is obligated to act in the Contractor's discretion to prevent
<br /> threatened damage, injury, or loss. As soon as practicable, the Contractor shall notify the
<br /> Designer and Owner of such emergency. The Contractor shall give the Designer and the Owner
<br /> prompt written notice of any significant changes in the Work or deviations from the Contract
<br /> Documents caused by such emergency. If the Contractor believes that additional work done in
<br /> an emergency entitles the Contractor to an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the
<br /> Contract Time, the Contractor may make a claim therefore as provided in Articles 14 and/or 15.
<br /> 7.22 The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of waste
<br /> materials or rubbish caused by the Work. At least weekly and at the completion of the Work, the
<br /> Contractor shall remove all waste materials and rubbish from and about the Project. At the
<br /> completion of the Work, the Contractor shall remove all tools, construction equipment,
<br /> machinery, and surplus materials. The Contractor shall leave the Work in condition for
<br /> occupancy by the Owner such that no cleaning or other operations are required. Material
<br /> cleared from the Project and deposited on adjacent property shall not be considered as having
<br /> been disposed of satisfactorily. If the Contractor fails to keep the Project clean of waste
<br /> materials or rubbish, fails to satisfactorily clean-up weekly or at the completion of the Work, the
<br /> Owner may do so and the costs thereof may be deducted from any amounts due the Contractor.
<br /> 7.23 Utilities, temporary facilities, and signs shall be provided as described in the Contract
<br /> Documents. Absent a contrary direction in the Supplementary Conditions, the Contractor shall
<br /> pay all bills for water, electricity, or other public utility service to the Project site.
<br /> 7.24 The Contractor shall indemnify and hold the Owner, the Designer, the Designer's
<br /> consultants, and their officers, agents, and employees harmless against all costs, damages, and
<br /> expenses, including attorney's fees and costs of defense, arising out of claims by any separate
<br /> contractor or by any Subcontractor, sub-subcontractor, or supplier engaged by or employed by
<br /> the Contractor or employed by any of the Subcontractors claiming through him, including
<br /> without limitation damages, losses, and expenses arising out of or relating to any
<br /> Revised 12/18
