A. INTRODUCTION
   
 

The intent of this section is to provide the Lessee's contractors and vendors with construction-specific information regarding the regulations governing construction activities, which will be enforced by McCarthy Building Company on behalf of Vestar Development Company.

     
 

It is the responsibility of the pad contractor to communicate all information contained herein and in other documents and agreements by which he is bound to all employees, suppliers and any others providing services through the General Contractor. In no case will an entity's lack of knowledge of any regulations contained herein or in any other document constitute reasonable grounds for failure to comply.

     
 

These rules will be strictly enforced and failure to comply can result in work delay and/or work stoppage.  As its Representative Site Contractor responsible for all site construction activities, Vestar Development Company has granted GENERAL CONTRACTOR the authority to stop pad contractor from continuing work for any reason it deems to be in the best interest of the project.  Good communication and willingness to cooperate can alleviate, if not eliminate, many problems.

     
 

Summit Builders reserves the right to alter, amend or augment this manual and any part herein, at any time, as necessitated by project conditions.

  6. JOB SITE STORAGE:
       
   

It will be determined during your pre-construction meeting with the Project Manager or Site Superintendent if a staging area for materials, tools and equipment is available on site.  Job site storage is limited and it may be necessary to arrange for off site storage.  If a site location is available, it will be on a temporary basis only.  You may be asked to relocate to accommodate base building and/or site work.

Any damage or losses resulting from storage of materials, tools and equipment shall be remedied at the cost of the pad contractor.  The pad contractor is responsible for erection, dismantling, maintenance, utilities, fencing, telephone, security, etc., that it deems necessary in setting up its offices, sheds and storage areas.

Materials and Equipment temporarily stored at the Premises shall be located so as not to interfere with the work of any other pad contractor or subcontractor.  Storage areas are to be maintained in a clean, orderly manner and to Summit Builders satisfaction.

    The pad contractor is responsible for any traffic control and barricades necessary to perform their work.  The project speed limit is 10 mph.
       
  12. ACCESS AND MATERIAL DELIVERY:
       
   

An access route to your space will be through a site gate location to be selected by Summit Builders.  All construction personnel and deliveries are required to use this entry.  It is the responsibility of the pad contractor to ensure that all personnel and vendors making deliveries to the job site are aware of the job site location and access route.  Summit Builders will not direct or accept your deliveries.  You will be notified should project conditions necessitate an access route change.

Deliveries to the site shall be controlled so that materials are not stored for excessive periods before erection and incorporation into the structure or structures.

       
  13. PARKING:
       
   

Pad contractors and their employees are restricted to the staging areas designated by the Lease Exhibit (or in the absence of a Lease Exhibit, by Summit Builders) and are subject to change. Construction vehicles parked other than in designated areas may be subject to towing without prior notification. Towing and retrieving costs are at the vehicle owner's expense.

Parking in driveways, fire lanes and established loading zones is strictly prohibited.  Delivery vehicles must be completely unloaded at curbside and then moved out.  Unattended vehicles in loading zones will be tagged or towed at the vehicle owner's expense.

       
  14. PROTECTION OF EXISTING UTILITIES:

  16. CLEAN-UP/TRASH:
       
   

Clean up shall include removal and legal disposal of all debris from the site.  The pad contractor shall remove empty carton, crates and other combustible refuse from the premises daily.  Dirt or rubbish is not allowed to accumulate so it becomes detrimental to employees or to the work of the various trades.  If a dispute should arise between the pad contractors and separate contractors as to their responsibility for cleaning up the project site, Summit Builders may clean up the site and charge the cost against the contract amount of the pad contractors responsible as Summit Builders determines to be just.

       
  17. SECURITY:
       
    The pad contractor is responsible for all temporary security or facilities the pad contractor believes is required.
       
  18. HELICOPTER LIFTS:
