UXO Clause Samples
The UXO (Unexploded Ordnance) clause defines the responsibilities and procedures related to the discovery of unexploded bombs, shells, or other hazardous military munitions on a project site. Typically, this clause requires the contractor to immediately stop work and notify the relevant authorities if UXO is found, and may outline steps for securing the area and resuming work once it is declared safe. Its core function is to ensure the safety of personnel and property by providing a clear protocol for handling potentially dangerous discoveries, thereby minimizing risk and liability for all parties involved.
