If, however, such approval and consent shall have been given, and such work is found to meet the requirements of this Contract, the Contractor shall be recompensed for the expense of such examination and reconstruction in the manner herein provided for the payment of costs of extra work pursuant to a Change Order signed by the TOWN DISTRICT and the Contractor. The selection of laboratories and/or agencies for the inspection and tests of supplies, materials or equipment shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer. Satisfactory documentary evidence that the material has passed the required inspection and test must be furnished the Engineer prior to the incor- poration of the material in the work.
