Contractor’s Access After Substantial Completion to Achieve Final Completion Clause Samples

Contractor’s Access After Substantial Completion to Achieve Final Completion. Following Substantial Completion, Owner shall provide Contractor with reasonable and timely access to the Project to: (x) complete all remaining items on the Punchlists and (y) satisfy the other requirements with respect to the Project for Final Completion. The Parties expect that Contractor shall accomplish any necessary modification, repairs or additional work with minimal interference with commercial operation of the Project or any portion thereof and that reductions in and shut-downs of all or part of the Project’s operations will be required only when necessary, taking into consideration the length of the proposed reduction or shut-down. Provided that the correction of Non-Critical Deficiencies on the Punchlist do not require a shut-down of all or part of the Project, subject to Applicable Law, Owner agrees to permit Contractor unrestricted access to the Project between sunset and sunrise to perform such Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) should a reduction in or shut-down of all or part of the Project’s operations be required to complete any items on the Punchlist, then such reduction or shut-down shall be scheduled at the reasonable discretion of Owner, and Contractor shall complete such Work during such Owner scheduled reduction or shut-down. Contractor acknowledges that Owner may schedule such reduction or shut-down at any time including off peak hours, nights, weekends and holidays; provided that, in any event, subject to Applicable Law, Contractor shall be permitted to schedule such a reduction or shut-down between sunset and sunrise, to the extent requested by Contractor; and provided further that the Project is back on-line by sunrise of the next day.
