Contractor acknowledges that the DSA inspection, approval and certification process for projects was revised in 2012-2013 and that Contractor must comply with the requirements of the most recent versions of DSA document PR 13-01. Below are provisions of this document from 2012-2013: PR 13-01 (Procedure: Construction Oversight Process) - Duties of Contractor related to the use of “Project Inspection Card” (Form DSA 152). The Contractor shall carefully study the DSA approved documents and shall plan a schedule of operations well ahead of time. If at any time it is discovered that work is being done which is not in accordance with the DSA approved construction documents, the Contractor shall correct the work immediately. Verify that forms DSA 152 are issued for the project prior to the commencement of construction. Meet with the design team, the Laboratory of Record and the Project Inspector to mutually communicate and understand the testing and inspection program and the methods of communication appropriate for the project. Notify the Project Inspector, in writing, of the commencement of construction of each and every aspect of the work at least 48 hours in advance by submitting form DSA 156 (or other agreed upon written documents) to the Project Inspector. Notify the Project Inspector of the completion of construction of each and every aspect of the work by submitting form DSA 156 (or other agreed upon written documents) to the Project Inspector. Consider the relationship of the signed off blocks and sections of the form DSA 152 and the commencement of subsequent work. Until the Project Inspector has signed off applicable blocks and sections of the form DSA 152, the Contractor may be prohibited from proceeding with subsequent construction activities that cover up the unapproved work. Any subsequent construction activities, that cover up the unapproved work, will be subject to a “Stop Work Order” from the DSA or the District and are subject to removal and remediation if found to be in non-compliance with the DSA approved construction documents.
