<br />
<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 />
<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 />
<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 />
<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 />
<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 />
<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 />
<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
