CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE
NOTE: This sequence is provided as a guide for limiting erosion and the loss of sediment to off-site areas. It is not
intended to dictate means and/or methods for the Contractor to perform his work. The Contractor is solely responsible
for preventing eroded soils from leaving the site. He shall use his best judgment in adjusting this sequence as may be
beneficial in meeting this intended goal.
1. Obtain a copy of the NCDEQ/LQS erosion control permit. Review the permit and become familiar with its
contents/requirements.
2. Schedule an on-site pre-construction conference with the NCDEQ/LQS personnel named on the erosion control
permit. Inform Brunswick County Schools and the Engineer about the date and time of the meeting.
3. Install the temporary gravel construction entrance.
4. Install the sediment (silt) fencing along the alignments shown on the plan.
5. Remove all internal handicap signs, concrete wheel stops, and other designated features on this plan. Store all in
a safe location for reuse after paving is complete.
6. Remove the existing asphalt and base material and/or subgrade material to a depth of at least 8" below the
proposed surface grade of the parking lot. All spoil material from the existing parking lot removal shall be
transported off site immediately and disposed of in a legal manner. Waste site must have a state approved
erosion and sedimentation control plan. Spoil materials are not permitted to be stockpiled on site for any period of
time.
7. Construct the parking lot base by placing and compacting a 6" layer of compacted aggregate base course (ABC).
Refer to General Notes on this drawing.
8. Install pavement section of the parking lot. Refer to General Notes on this drawing.
9. Re-install internal signs, concrete wheel stops, and other designated features.
10. Repair asphalt under temporary construction entrance to match condition of newly installed pavement.
11. Stabilize all disturbed areas as set out in the “Grassing Notes”.
12. Inspect all erosion and sediment control practices weekly and after rainfall events. Make repairs as may be
needed.
13. After the site is stabilized, remove all temporary measures and apply permanent seeding, fertilizer, and mulching.
Water as necessary to establish a vigorous grass cover.
14. Paint crosswalk and all parking stall lines and numbers.
EROSION CONTROL AND STORMWATER NARRATIVE:
Brunswick County Schools desires to reconstruct the on-site parking lot at South Brunswick High School. The project
will entail removing the existing asphalt surface and base materials and replacing with a new base and asphalt surface.
The finished surface will have the same dimensions as the existing one and shall "occupy" the same location. No more
than 2.6 acres will be disturbed during the performance of the work.
Mandarin Fine Sand (Ma) and Leon Fine Sand (Lo) soils are the two types of soils on-site per the Natural Resources
Conservation Service's Web Soil Survey.
The primary temporary means for controlling erosion during construction will be sediment (silt) fencing, and a
construction entrance. The primary means for permanent surface stabilization will be permanent seeding to establish a
vigorous grass cover over the perimeter areas.
The current project entails removing existing BUA and installing new BUA over the same footprint as the old BUA.
This site drains to Moore Creek in the Cape Fear River Basin. The classification of Moore Creek at this location is C;Sw.
The Stream Index number is 18-86-1. No wetlands will be disturbed during the construction of this project.

Mr. Alex D. Lapinsky, P.E. McGill Associates, PA 712 Village Road SW, Suite 103 Shallotte, NC 28470
ECS Project No. 22:29243 Reference: Geotechnical Engineering Letter
South Brunswick High School Bus Parking Lot 280 Cougar Road Southport, Brunswick County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Lapinsky: Project Description: The proposed project consists of replacing the existing South Brunswick High School Bus Parking lot in Southport, Brunswick County, North Carolina. Based on available overhead imagery it appears that the parking lot is over 20 years old (the design life of asphalt) and is experiencing failures consisting of longitudinal cracking, transverse cracking, fatigue cracking and potholes. Exploration Description: Four (4) hand auger borings with asphalt cores and Kessler Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) tests were performed in the area of the existing parking lot. The Kessler DCP was continuously driven approximately 2 to 3 feet below the existing ground surface. The Kessler DCP is driven into the soil by dropping a Single-Mass 17.6 lb Hammer from a height of 22.6 inches. The depth of cone penetration is measured at selected penetration or hammer drop intervals and the soil shear strength is reported in terms of the Kessler DCP index. The Kessler DCP index is based on the average penetration depth resulting from one blow of the 17.6 lb hammer. The test locations are shown on the attached exploration diagram. The Kessler DCP index can be correlated to CBR and modulus of rigidity. The individual results of the Kessler DCP tests are attached to this letter. The approximate test locations are attached in Appendix A. Subsurface Description: The hand auger borings encountered asphalt ranging from approximately 1.5 to 3.5 inches, underlain by ABC stone with a thickness of approximately 4.5 to 8 inches. However, no ABC stone was encountered in borings K-2 and K-3. The subgrade soils generally consisted of silty and clean SAND (SM, SP). The hand auger boring logs are attached in Appendix B.
SBHS Bus Parking Lot June 26, 2020 ECS Project No. 22:29243 Page 2 Groundwater Observations: At the time of the exploration, groundwater was encountered at depths ranging from approximately 2 to 3 feet. The highest groundwater observations are normally encountered in the late winter and early spring. Variations in the long-term water table may occur as a result of changes in precipitation, evaporation, surface water runoff, construction activities, and other factors not immediately apparent at the time of this exploration. If long term water levels are crucial to the development of this site, it would be prudent to verify water levels with the use of perforated pipes or piezometers. Pavement Design Considerations: Based on the results of our hand auger borings, it appears that the soils that will likely be exposed as pavement subgrades generally consist of SANDS (SM, SP). Based on the Kessler DCP test results, a CBR value of 10 has been used to model the in place subgrade soils. The pavement design assumes that the subgrades consist of suitable materials evaluated by ECS and placed and compacted to at least 98 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by the Standard Proctor test (ASTM D 698) in accordance with the project specifications. For the design and construction of flexible impervious pavements, the subgrades should be prepared in strict accordance with the recommendations in the “Subgrade Preparation” and “Engineered Fill Placement” sections of this report. An important consideration with the design and construction of pavements is surface and subsurface drainage. Where standing water develops, either on the pavement surface or within the base course layer, softening of the subgrade and other problems related to the deterioration of the pavement can be expected. Furthermore, good drainage should minimize the possibility of the subgrade materials becoming saturated during the normal service period of the pavement. Traffic loading conditions were not available at the time of this proposal. Based on similar projects, a traffic load of 25,000 ESALs was assumed. ECS understands that the existing asphalt will likely be ground onsite and will likely not be hauled off. If the ground asphalt is to be reused, it is recommended that it is mixed in with the existing subgrade material. After the subgrade is proofrolled, it is recommended that the pavement section is constructed and consists of at least 2 inches of surface material underlain by 6 inches of compacted aggregate base course. Subgrade Preparation: The subgrade preparation should consist of stripping vegetation, rootmat, topsoil, existing fill, and any other soft or unsuitable materials from the 5-foot expanded pavement areas. ECS should be called to verify that topsoil and unsuitable surficial materials have been completely removed prior to the placement of structural fill or construction of the parking lot.
SBHS Bus Parking Lot June 26, 2020 ECS Project No. 22:29243 Page 3 After removing unsuitable surface materials, cutting to the proposed grade, and prior to the placement of any structural fill or other construction materials, the exposed subgrade should be examined by the geotechnical engineer or authorized representative. The exposed subgrade should be proofrolled with previously approved construction equipment having a minimum axle load of 10 tons (e.g. vibratory steel drum roller). The areas subject to proofrolling should be traversed by the equipment in two perpendicular (orthogonal) directions with overlapping passes of the vehicle under the observation of the geotechnical engineer or authorized representative. This procedure is intended to assist in identifying any localized yielding materials. In the event that unstable or “pumping” subgrade is identified by the proofrolling, those areas should be marked for repair prior to the placement of any subsequent structural fill or other construction materials. Methods of repair of unstable subgrade, such as undercutting or moisture conditioning, should be discussed with the geotechnical engineer to determine the appropriate procedure with regard to the existing conditions causing the instability. Test pits may be excavated to explore the shallow subsurface materials in the area of the instability to help in determined the cause of the observed unstable materials and to assist in the evaluation of the appropriate remedial action to stabilize the subgrade. Engineered Fill Placement: Prior to placement of structural fill, representative bulk samples (about 50 pounds) of on-site and off-site borrow should be submitted to ECS for laboratory testing, which will include Atterberg limits, natural moisture content, grain-size distribution, and moisture-density relationships for compaction. Import materials should be tested prior to being hauled to the site to determine if they meet project specifications. Materials satisfactory for use as structural fill should consist of inorganic soils classified as SM, SC, SW, SP, GW, GP, GM, and GC, or a combination of these group symbols, per ASTM D 2487. Natural fine-grained soils classified as clays or silts (CL, ML) should not be considered for use as engineered fill, but may be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer to determine their suitability at the contractor’s request. The materials should be free of organic matter, debris, and should contain no particle sizes greater than 4 inches in the largest dimension. Open graded materials, such as gravels (GP), which contain void space in their mass should not be used in structural fills unless properly encapsulated with filter fabric. Suitable structural fill material should have the index properties shown below.
Structural Fill Index Properties

Max % Fines Passing # 200 Sieve
Pavement Area 35 max 9 max 20
Materials that should not be used as engineered fill include topsoil, organic materials (OH, OL), and high plasticity clays and silts (CH, MH). Such materials removed during grading operations should be either stockpiled for later use in landscape fills, or placed in approved on or off-site disposal areas.
SBHS Bus Parking Lot June 26, 2020 ECS Project No. 22:29243 Page 4 Structural Fill Compaction: Structural fill within the expanded pavement limits should be placed in maximum 8-inch loose lifts, moisture conditioned as necessary to within -3 and +3 % of the soil’s optimum moisture content, and be compacted with suitable equipment to a dry density of at least 98% of the Standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D698). Beyond these areas, compaction of at least 95% should be achieved. ECS should be called to document that proper fill compaction has been achieved. Fill Compaction Control: The expanded limits of the proposed construction areas should be well defined, including the limits of the fill zones for the proposed construction area, at the time of fill placement. Grade controls should be maintained throughout the filling operations. Filling operations should be observed on a full-time basis by a qualified representative of the geotechnical engineer or construction testing laboratory to determine that the minimum compaction requirements are being achieved. Field density testing of fills should be performed at the frequencies shown in the table below but not less than 1 test per lift.
Frequency of Compaction Tests in Fill Areas Location Frequency of Tests
Pavement Area 1 test per 5,000 sq. ft. Compaction equipment suitable to the soil type being compacted should be used to compact the subgrades and fill materials. A vibratory steel drum roller should be used for compaction of coarse-grained soils (Sands and Gravels) as well as for sealing compacted surfaces. Fill materials should not be placed on frozen soils, on frost-heaved soils, and/or on excessively wet soils. Borrow fill materials should not contain frozen materials at the time of placement, and frozen or frost-heaved soils should be removed prior to placement of structural fill or other fill soils and aggregates. Excessively wet soils or aggregates should be scarified, aerated, and moisture conditioned.
At the end of each work day, fill areas should be graded to facilitate drainage of any precipitation and the surface should be sealed by use of a smooth-drum roller to limit infiltration of surface water. Drying and compaction of wet soils is typically difficult during the cold, winter months. Accordingly, earthwork should be performed during the warmer, drier times of the year, if practical. Proper drainage should be maintained during the earthwork phases of construction to prevent ponding of water which has a tendency to degrade subgrade soils. Fill material should be placed in horizontal lifts. In confined areas such as utility trenches, portable compaction equipment and thin lifts of 3 inches to 4 inches may be required to achieve specified degrees of compaction.
SBHS Bus Parking Lot June 26, 2020 ECS Project No. 22:29243 Page 5 We recommend that the grading contractor have equipment on site during earthwork for both drying and wetting fill soils. We do not anticipate significant problems in controlling moisture within the fill during dry weather, but moisture control may be difficult during winter months or extended periods of rain. The control of moisture content of higher plasticity soils is difficult when these soils become wet. Further, such soils are easily degraded by construction traffic when the moisture content is elevated. Closure: ECS has prepared this report of findings, evaluations, and recommendations to guide geotechnical-related design and construction aspects of the project. The description of the proposed project is based on information provided by McGill Associates, PA. If any of this information is inaccurate, either due to our interpretation of the documents provided or site or design changes that may occur later, ECS should be contacted immediately so that we can review the report in light of the changes and provide additional or alternate recommendations as may be required to reflect the proposed construction. It has been our pleasure to be of service to McGill Associates, PA during the design phase of this project. We would appreciate the opportunity to remain involved during the continuation of the design phase, and we would like to provide our services during construction phase operations as well to verify the assumptions of subsurface conditions made for this report. Should you have any questions concerning the information contained in this report, or if we can be of further assistance to you, please contact us. Respectfully submitted, ECS Southeast, LLP

APPENDIX C – Supplemental Report Documents GBA Document
Geotechnical-Engineering ReportImportant Information about This
Subsurface problems are a principal cause of construction delays, cost overruns, claims, and disputes.
While you cannot eliminate all such risks, you can manage them. The following information is provided to help.
The Geoprofessional Business Association (GBA) has prepared this advisory to help you – assumedly a client representative – interpret and apply this geotechnical-engineering report as effectively as possible. In that way, clients can benefit from a lowered exposure to the subsurface problems that, for decades, have been a principal cause of construction delays, cost overruns, claims, and disputes. If you have questions or want more information about any of the issues discussed below, contact your GBA-member geotechnical engineer. Active involvement in the Geoprofessional Business Association exposes geotechnical engineers to a wide array of risk-confrontation techniques that can be of genuine benefit for everyone involved with a construction project.
Geotechnical-Engineering Services Are Performed for Specific Purposes, Persons, and ProjectsGeotechnical engineers structure their services to meet the specific needs of their clients. A geotechnical-engineering study conducted for a given civil engineer will not likely meet the needs of a civil-works constructor or even a different civil engineer. Because each geotechnical-engineering study is unique, each geotechnical-engineering report is unique, prepared solely for the client. Those who rely on a geotechnical-engineering report prepared for a different client can be seriously misled. No one except authorized client representatives should rely on this geotechnical-engineering report without first conferring with the geotechnical engineer who prepared it. And no one – not even you – should apply this report for any purpose or project except the one originally contemplated.
Read this Report in FullCostly problems have occurred because those relying on a geotechnical-engineering report did not read it in its entirety. Do not rely on an executive summary. Do not read selected elements only. Read this report in full.
You Need to Inform Your Geotechnical Engineer about ChangeYour geotechnical engineer considered unique, project-specific factors when designing the study behind this report and developing the confirmation-dependent recommendations the report conveys. A few typical factors include: • the client’s goals, objectives, budget, schedule, and risk-management preferences; • the general nature of the structure involved, its size, configuration, and performance criteria; • the structure’s location and orientation on the site; and • other planned or existing site improvements, such as retaining walls, access roads, parking lots, and underground utilities.
Typical changes that could erode the reliability of this report include those that affect:• the site’s size or shape;• the function of the proposed structure, as when it’s changed from a parking garage to an office building, or from a light-industrial plant to a refrigerated warehouse;• the elevation, configuration, location, orientation, or weight of the proposed structure;• the composition of the design team; or• project ownership.
As a general rule, always inform your geotechnical engineer of project changes – even minor ones – and request an assessment of their impact. The geotechnical engineer who prepared this report cannot accept responsibility or liability for problems that arise because the geotechnical engineer was not informed about developments the engineer otherwise would have considered.
This Report May Not Be ReliableDo not rely on this report if your geotechnical engineer prepared it:• for a different client;• for a different project;• for a different site (that may or may not include all or a portion of the original site); or • before important events occurred at the site or adjacent to it; e.g., man-made events like construction or environmental remediation, or natural events like floods, droughts, earthquakes, or groundwater fluctuations.
Note, too, that it could be unwise to rely on a geotechnical-engineering report whose reliability may have been affected by the passage of time, because of factors like changed subsurface conditions; new or modified codes, standards, or regulations; or new techniques or tools. If your geotechnical engineer has not indicated an “apply-by” date on the report, ask what it should be, and, in general, if you are the least bit uncertain about the continued reliability of this report, contact your geotechnical engineer before applying it. A minor amount of additional testing or analysis – if any is required at all – could prevent major problems.
Most of the “Findings” Related in This Report Are Professional OpinionsBefore construction begins, geotechnical engineers explore a site’s subsurface through various sampling and testing procedures. Geotechnical engineers can observe actual subsurface conditions only at those specific locations where sampling and testing were performed. The data derived from that sampling and testing were reviewed by your geotechnical engineer, who then applied professional judgment to form opinions about subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual sitewide-subsurface conditions may differ – maybe significantly – from those indicated in this report. Confront that risk by retaining your geotechnical engineer to serve on the design team from project start to project finish, so the individual can provide informed guidance quickly, whenever needed.
This Report’s Recommendations Are Confirmation-DependentThe recommendations included in this report – including any options or alternatives – are confirmation-dependent. In other words, they are not final, because the geotechnical engineer who developed them relied heavily on judgment and opinion to do so. Your geotechnical engineer can finalize the recommendations only after observing actual subsurface conditions revealed during construction. If through observation your geotechnical engineer confirms that the conditions assumed to exist actually do exist, the recommendations can be relied upon, assuming no other changes have occurred. The geotechnical engineer who prepared this report cannot assume responsibility or liability for confirmation-dependent recommendations if you fail to retain that engineer to perform construction observation.
This Report Could Be MisinterpretedOther design professionals’ misinterpretation of geotechnical-engineering reports has resulted in costly problems. Confront that risk by having your geotechnical engineer serve as a full-time member of the design team, to: • confer with other design-team members, • help develop specifications, • review pertinent elements of other design professionals’ plans and specifications, and • be on hand quickly whenever geotechnical-engineering guidance is needed. You should also confront the risk of constructors misinterpreting this report. Do so by retaining your geotechnical engineer to participate in prebid and preconstruction conferences and to perform construction observation.
Give Constructors a Complete Report and GuidanceSome owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can shift unanticipated-subsurface-conditions liability to constructors by limiting the information they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent the costly, contentious problems this practice has caused, include the complete geotechnical-engineering report, along with any attachments or appendices, with your contract documents, but be certain to note conspicuously that you’ve included the material for informational purposes only. To avoid misunderstanding, you may also want to note that “informational purposes” means constructors have no right to rely on the interpretations, opinions, conclusions, or recommendations in the report, but they may rely on the factual data relative to the specific times, locations, and depths/elevations referenced. Be certain that constructors know they may learn about specific project requirements, including options selected from the report, only from the design drawings and specifications. Remind constructors that they may
perform their own studies if they want to, and be sure to allow enough time to permit them to do so. Only then might you be in a position to give constructors the information available to you, while requiring them to at least share some of the financial responsibilities stemming from unanticipated conditions. Conducting prebid and preconstruction conferences can also be valuable in this respect.
Read Responsibility Provisions CloselySome client representatives, design professionals, and constructors do not realize that geotechnical engineering is far less exact than other engineering disciplines. That lack of understanding has nurtured unrealistic expectations that have resulted in disappointments, delays, cost overruns, claims, and disputes. To confront that risk, geotechnical engineers commonly include explanatory provisions in their reports. Sometimes labeled “limitations,” many of these provisions indicate where geotechnical engineers’ responsibilities begin and end, to help others recognize their own responsibilities and risks. Read these provisions closely. Ask questions. Your geotechnical engineer should respond fully and frankly.
Geoenvironmental Concerns Are Not CoveredThe personnel, equipment, and techniques used to perform an environmental study – e.g., a “phase-one” or “phase-two” environmental site assessment – differ significantly from those used to perform a geotechnical-engineering study. For that reason, a geotechnical-engineering report does not usually relate any environmental findings, conclusions, or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated subsurface environmental problems have led to project failures. If you have not yet obtained your own environmental information, ask your geotechnical consultant for risk-management guidance. As a general rule, do not rely on an environmental report prepared for a different client, site, or project, or that is more than six months old.
Obtain Professional Assistance to Deal with Moisture Infiltration and MoldWhile your geotechnical engineer may have addressed groundwater, water infiltration, or similar issues in this report, none of the engineer’s services were designed, conducted, or intended to prevent uncontrolled migration of moisture – including water vapor – from the soil through building slabs and walls and into the building interior, where it can cause mold growth and material-performance deficiencies. Accordingly, proper implementation of the geotechnical engineer’s recommendations will not of itself be sufficient to prevent moisture infiltration. Confront the risk of moisture infiltration by including building-envelope or mold specialists on the design team. Geotechnical engineers are not building-envelope or mold specialists.

such conditions and as required by the Owner, architect or engineer. He shall be
responsible for any damage to the Owner's property or that of others on the job, by
himself, his personnel or his subcontractors, and shall make good such damages. He
shall be responsible for and pay for any claims against the Owner arising from such
damages.
b. The Contractor shall adhere to the rules, regulations and interpretations of the North
Carolina Department of Labor relating to Occupational Safety and Health Standards
for the Construction Industry (Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1926
Construction and Part 1910 General Industry).
c. The Contractor shall provide all necessary safety measures for the protection of all
persons on the work, including the requirements of the AGC Accident Prevention
Manual in Construction as amended, and shall fully comply with all state laws or
regulations and North Carolina State Building Code requirements to prevent accident
or injury to persons on or about the location of the work. He shall clearly mark or post
signs warning of hazards existing, and shall barricade excavations and similar hazards.
He shall protect against damage or injury resulting from falling materials and he shall
maintain all protective devices and signs throughout the progress of the work.
6. Warranties. The Contractor guarantees and warrants to the Owner all Work as follows:
that all materials and equipment furnished under this Agreement will be new and the best
of its respective kind unless otherwise specified; that all Work will be of good quality in

accordance with the industry standards for reputable contractors; that the Work will be free
of omissions and faulty, poor quality, imperfect and defective material or workmanship;
that the Work, including but not limited to, mechanical and electrical machines, devices
and equipment, shall be fit and fully usable for its intended and specified purpose and shall
operate satisfactorily with ordinary care; that the products or materials incorporated in the
Work will not contain asbestos; and that all agents or employees of Contractor who will
provide services under this Agreement will be fully qualified, possess any requisite
licenses, and otherwise be legally entitled to perform the services provided; and that the
person(s) executing this Agreement on behalf of Contractor have authority to do so as an
official, binding act of Contractor.
If, within one year after the Date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated
portion thereof or within one year after acceptance by the Owner of designated equipment
or within such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the terms of any
applicable special warranty required by this Agreement, any of the Work is found to be
defective, not in accordance with this Agreement, or not in accordance with the guarantees
and warranties specified in this Agreement, the Contractor shall correct it within five (5)
working days or such other period as mutually agreed, after receipt of a written notice from
the Owner to do so. For items which remain incomplete or uncorrected on the date of
Substantial Completion, the one year warranty shall begin on the date of Final Completion
of the Work.
7. Contractor-Subcontractor Relationships. The Contractor agrees that the terms of these
Agreement documents shall apply equally to a subcontractor as to the Contractor, and that
the subcontractor is bound by those terms as an agent of the Contractor.
8. Hold Harmless. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold the Owner harmless from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, lawsuits, judgments, and demands
whatsoever, including costs of investigation (including reimbursement of reasonable legal
fees and all costs) caused solely by any negligent act or omission or intentional
wrongdoing of the Contractor or its agents, employees or subcontractors, or caused solely
by the maintenance, presence, use, location or removal of any equipment or other property
owned or operated by the Contractor or its agents, employees or subcontractors. The
parties agree that this indemnification clause is an “evidence of indebtedness” for purpose
of N. C. Gen. Stat. § 6-21.2. The Owner shall not be responsible for any damage to the
Contractor=s property, business, agents or employees, unless said damage is due solely to
the negligence of Owner.
9. Insurance. The Contractor shall obtain and maintain in effect during the term of this
Agreement, general liability and automobile liability insurance in which the Owner and the
Contractor shall each be named as insured parties, which insurance shall protect the Owner
and the Contractor from claims in an amount not less than $1,000,000 for personal injury,
including death, to any one person and in an amount not less than $1,000,000 for any one
occurrence, and from claims for property damages in an amount of not less than
$1,000,000 for each occurrence arising from any act or omission of Contractor, its agents,
employees or subcontractors. The Contractor shall obtain and maintain in effect during
the term of this Agreement, a policy of workers compensation liability insurance in which
Small Project Construction Contract Form v.2
the policy shall protect the Owner and the Contractor from claims in an amount not less
than the statutory amount.
The Contractor shall promptly furnish to the Owner certificates of insurance evidencing
such insurance coverage. Insurance required hereunder shall be maintained by insurance
companies properly licensed by the Insurance Department of the State of North Carolina
and rated A or better by Best Insurance Guide.
10. Termination for Convenience. The Board may terminate this Agreement at any time in its
complete discretion upon twenty (20) days written notice. In the event of a termination
for convenience, all finished or unfinished work and materials pursuant to this Agreement
shall be turned over to the Board and become its property. If the Agreement is terminated
by the Board in accordance with this section, the Board shall only be responsible for paying
Contractor for all Work performed and accepted and all materials delivered to the site as of
the date of termination.
11. Termination by the Owner for Cause. The Owner may terminate the Agreement upon five
(5) days written notice if the Board is dissatisfied with the quality or timeliness of the Work
performed. If the Owner becomes dissatisfied with the Work, the Owner may without
prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Owner and after giving the Contractor five
days’ written notice, terminate employment of the Contractor and may:
1. Exclude the Contractor from the site and take possession of all materials,
equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery thereon owned by
the Contractor;
2. Accept assignment of any subcontracts; and
3. Finish the Work by whatever reasonable method the Owner may deem
expedient. Upon written request of the Contractor, the Owner shall furnish to
the Contractor a detailed accounting of the costs incurred by the Owner in
finishing the Work.
If the Owner terminates the whole or any part of the Work, the Owner may procure, upon
such terms and in such manner as the Owner may deem appropriate, supplies or services
similar to those so terminated, and the Contractor shall be liable to the Owner for any
excess costs for such similar supplies or services. The Contractor shall continue the
performance of the Agreement to the extent not terminated hereunder.
When the Owner terminates the Agreement, the Contractor shall not be entitled to receive
further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum
exceeds costs of finishing the Work, including compensation for the Architect’s and legal
services and expenses made necessary thereby, and other damages incurred by the Owner
and not expressly waived, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs and
damages exceed the unpaid balance, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner.
The amount to be paid to the Contractor or Owner, as the case may be, shall be certified by
the Architect and this obligation for payment shall survive this Agreement.
Small Project Construction Contract Form v.2 6
12. Lunsford Act/Criminal Background Checks. The Contractor shall conduct or arrange to
have conducted at its own expense sexual offender registry checks on each of its owners,
employees, agents, or subcontractors (“contractual personnel”) who will engage in any
service on or delivery of goods to school system property or at a school-system sponsored
event, except checks shall not be required for individuals who are solely delivering or
picking up equipment, materials, or supplies at: (1) the administrative office or loading
dock of a school; (2) non-school sites; (3) schools closed for renovation; or (4) school
construction sites. The checks shall include at a minimum checks of the State Sex
Offender and Public Protection Registration Program, the State Sexually Violent Predator
Registration Program, and the National Sex Offender Registry (“the Registries”). For the
Contractor’s convenience only, all of the required registry checks may be completed at no
cost by accessing the United States Department of Justice Sex Offender Public Website at
http:// www. nsopw.gov/. The Contractor shall provide certification that the registry
checks were conducted on each of its contractual personnel providing services or
delivering goods under this Agreement prior to the commencement of such services or the
delivery of such goods (Registry Check Certification Form – Exhibit B). The Contractor
shall conduct a current initial check of the registries (a check done more than 30 days prior
to the date of this Agreement shall not satisfy this contractual obligation). In addition,
Contractor agrees to conduct the registry checks and provide a supplemental certification
before any additional contractual personnel are used to deliver goods or provide services
pursuant to this Agreement. Contractor further agrees to conduct annual registry checks
of all contractual personnel and provide annual certifications at each anniversary date of
this Agreement. Contractor shall not assign any individual to deliver goods or provide
services pursuant to this Agreement if said individual appears on any of the listed
registries. Contractor agrees that it will maintain all records and documents necessary to
demonstrate that it has conducted a thorough check of the registries as to each contractual
personnel, and agrees to provide such records and documents to the school system upon
request. Contractor specifically acknowledges that the school system retains the right to
audit these records to ensure compliance with this section at any time in the school
system’s sole discretion. Failure to comply with the terms of this provision shall be
grounds for immediate termination of the Agreement. In addition, the Owner may
conduct additional criminal records checks at the Owner’s expense. If the school system
exercises this right to conduct additional criminal records checks, Contractor agrees to
provide within seven (7) days of request the full name, date of birth, state of residency for
the past ten years, and any additional information requested by the school system for all
contractual personnel who may deliver goods or perform services under this Agreement.
Contractor further agrees that it has an ongoing obligation to provide the school system
with the name of any new contractual personnel who may deliver goods or provide services
under the Agreement. The Owner reserves the right to prohibit any contractual personnel
of Contractor from delivering goods or providing services under this Agreement if the
Owner determines, in its sole discretion, that such contractual personnel may pose a threat
to the safety or well-being of students, school personnel or others.
Small Project Construction Contract Form v.2 7
13. Governing Law. This Agreement and the relationship of the parties shall be governed by
the laws of the state of North Carolina.
14. Entire Agreement. All of the representations and obligations of the parties are contained
herein, and no modification, waiver or amendment of this Agreement or of any of its
conditions or provisions shall be binding upon a party unless in writing signed by that
party. The waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not
operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of that provision by the same
party, or of any other provision or condition of the Agreement.
15. Severability. If any section, subsection, term or provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof to any party or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of said section, subsection, term or provision of the
Agreement or the application of the same to parties or circumstances other than those to
which it was held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each
remaining section, subsection, term or provision of this Agreement shall be valid or
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
16. Compliance with Applicable Laws. Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws and
regulations in providing services under this Agreement. In particular, Contractor shall not
employ any individuals to provide services to the Owner who are not authorized by federal
law to work in the United States. Contractor represents and warrants that it is aware of
and in compliance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act and North Carolina law
(Article 2 of Chapter 64 of the North Carolina General Statutes) requiring use of the
E-Verify system for employers who employ twenty-five (25) or more employees and that it
is and will remain in compliance with these laws at all times while providing services
pursuant to this Agreement. Contractor shall also ensure that any of its subcontractors (of
any tier) will remain in compliance with these laws at all times while providing
subcontracted services in connection with this Agreement. Contractor is responsible for
providing affordable health care coverage to all of its full-time employees providing
services to the School System. The definitions of “affordable coverage” and “full-time
employee” are governed by the Affordable Care Act and accompanying IRS and Treasury
Department regulations.
17. Restricted Companies List. Contractor represents that as of the date of this Agreement,
Contractor is not included on the Final Divestment List created by the North Carolina State
Treasurer pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 147-86.58. Contractor also represents that as of
the date of this Agreement, Contractor is not included on the list of restricted companies
determined to be engaged in a boycott of Israel created by the North Carolina State
Treasurer pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 147-86.81.
18. Anti-Nepotism. Contractor warrants that, to the best of its knowledge and in the exercise
of due diligence, none of its corporate officers, directors, or trustees and none of its
employees who will directly provide services under this Agreement are immediate family
Small Project Construction Contract Form v.2 8
members of any member of the Brunswick County Board of Education or of any principal
or central office staff administrator employed by the Board. For purposes of this provision,
“immediate family” means spouse, parent, child, brother, sister, grandparent, or
grandchild, and includes step, half, and in-law relationships. Should Contractor become
aware of any family relationship covered by this provision or should such a family
relationship arise at any time during the term of this Agreement, Contractor shall
immediately disclose the family relationship in writing to the Superintendent of the
Schools. Unless formally waived by the Board, the existence of a family relationship
covered by this Agreement is grounds for immediate termination by Owner without further
financial liability to Contractor.
19. Applicable School Board of Education Policies. Contractor acknowledges that the
Brunswick County Board of Education has adopted policies governing conduct on School
System property and agrees to abide by any and all relevant Board policies while on School
System property. The Contractor acknowledges that Board’s policies are available on the
