ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Contractor will perform any or all Tasks in the Construction Task Catalog for the Unit Price appearing therein multiplied by the following Adjustment Factors. See the General Terms and Conditions for additional information.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Contractor’s two Adjustment Factors that will be applied against the prices set forth in the Contract Task Catalog®. These Adjustment Factors will be used to price out fixed price Job Orders by multiplying the appropriate Adjustment Factor by the Unit Prices and appropriate quantities.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Contractor’s three (3) Adjustment Factors that will be applied against the prices set forth in the Contract Task Catalog®. These Adjustment Factors will be used to price out fixed price JOC Task Orders by multiplying the appropriate Adjustment Factor by the Unit Prices and appropriate quantities.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Contractor will perform any or all Tasks in the Construction Task Catalog (CTC) for the Unit Price appearing therein multiplied by the following Adjustment Factors. See the General Terms and Conditions for additional information.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. There are three additional factors to be considered for modification of the amount of initial liability: the violator’s culpability, efforts to clean-up or cooperate with regulatory authority, and the violator’s compliance history. After each of these factors is considered for the violations involved, the applicable factor should be multiplied by the proposed amount for each violation to determine the revised amount for that violation.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Enforcement Policy states that three additional factors must be considered for potential modification of the liability amount: (a) the Discharger’s degree of culpability, (b) the Discharger’s prior history of violations, and (c) the Discharger’s voluntary efforts to cleanup, or its cooperation with regulatory authorities after the violation. Culpability: 1.3 The Enforcement Policy states that higher liabilities should result from intentional or negligent violations as opposed to accidental violations. A multiplier between 0.75 and 1.5 is used, with a higher multiplier for intentional misconduct or gross negligence. The information discussed below is taken from the Discharger’s May 4, 2022 third-party audit report. The 216th Street Relocation Trunk Sewer failed on segment pipe P20116 between manholes 644 and 476. This sewer pipe was a 48-inch diameter unlined reinforced concrete pipe that was approximately 60 years old. On December 30, 2021, a 15-foot length of the pipe collapsed, as well as manhole 476. Between 2006 and 2021, this section of line had been inspected nine times by Closed Circuit TV (CCTV). The inspection frequency was elevated to yearly between 2016 and 2021. The most recent inspection occurred on December 1, 2021, only 29 days prior to the collapse. Since at least 2012, the Discharger tested the pH of the pipe and sprayed the pipe with magnesium hydroxide on six-month intervals. The measured pH ranged from 1 to 9 but was most often between 1 and 3. This indicates that the pipe was subject to high levels of acidity, leading to deterioration of the concrete. In fact, portions of the collapsed pipe had a thickness of less than 1”. It is believed that corrosion of the pipeline and manhole was the primary cause of failure and subsequent SSO. Although the pipe was subject to CCTV inspection, some of the videos were of poor quality and impacted by high water levels in the pipe, there was unclear imagery due to the equipment and/or material on the camera lens, and the magnesium hydroxide coating obscured the view of defects. On February 10, 2015, the Discharger’s staff prepared an internal memorandum requesting the rehabilitation of Condition 1 and 2 segments7 of the 216th Street trunk line within two years, or by 2017. The section of line that failed had been rated Condition 2. While the Discharger funded and commenced the efforts to replace the line as part of a larger global planned replacement sewer project, the construction process took lo...

Culpability: 1.1 The Enforcement Policy states that higher liabilities should result from intentional or negligent violations as opposed to accidental violations. A multiplier between 0.75 and 1.5 is to be used, with a higher multiplier for intentional misconduct or gross negligence. According to the Discharger’s CIWQS spill reports, about 40% of the untreated wastewater discharged for Violation 2 was due to root intrusion or vandalism. However, the remaining 60% of the volume discharged was due to lack of hydraulic capacity, failure of a repair, a contractor puncturing a line, improper placement of a xxxxxx hose, cut roots, and an unpermitted connection. The Discharger could have taken actions to prevent or minimize 60% of the volume of untreated wastewater that was discharged. Hence, these spills should not be considered accidental violations.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. CONTRACTOR shall perform all Work required, necessary, proper for, or incidental to completing the Detailed SOW called for in each individual Job Order issued pursuant to this Contract for the Unit Prices set forth in the CTC. COUNTY shall pay CONTRATOR the Job Order Price for completion of Work in accordance with Contract Documents and the Detailed SOW described in each Job Order multiplied by the following Adjustment Factors:
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. The Minimum Contract Value is $25,000. CONTRACTOR will have the opportunity to receive Job Orders totaling at least $25,000 during the Contract term. The Maximum Contract Value is $5,402,865 for the JOC FACILITIES 2022-01 or 2022-02 or 2022-03 or 2022-04. COUNTY does not guarantee CONTRACTOR will receive this volume of Work. COUNTY may award contracts or issue Job Orders to other contractors for the same or similar Work during the term of this Agreement. In no event will CONTRACTOR be issued Job Orders which, in total, exceed the Maximum Contract Value. At no time may the sum of the outstanding Job Orders exceed the amount of the Payment Bond and Performance Bond. A Job Order is outstanding until COUNTY has accepted the Work described in the Job Order by recordation of a Notice of Completion. CONTRACTOR will not be issued Job Orders which in total exceed the Maximum Contract Value.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS. Adjustment Factors are the Contractor's competitively proposed price adjustments to the Unit Prices as published in the Construction Task Catalog, Book 3. Adjustment Factors are expressed as an increase or decrease from the published Unit Prices.
