ARTICLE 2. CITY RESPONSIBILITIES: City Engineer or designee will: 2.1 Provide Lab with all plans, specifications, addenda, change orders, approved shop drawings and other information for the proper performance of services by Lab. 2.2 Issue authorization in writing giving Lab free access to the Project site and to all shops or yards where materials are prepared or stored. 2.3 Designate in writing those persons or firms which will act as the City's representative with respect to Lab's services to be performed under this Agreement and which must be promptly notified by Lab when it appears that materials tested or inspected are in non-compliance.

ARTICLE 3. GENERAL CONDITIONS 3.1 Lab, by the performance of services covered hereunder, does not in any way assume, abridge or abrogate any of those duties, responsibilities or authorities with regard to the Project that, by custom or contract, are vested in the Project architects, design engineers or any other design agencies or authorities. 3.2 Lab is not authorized to supervise, alter, relax, enlarge or release any requirement of the Project specifications or other contract documents nor to approve or accept any portion of the work. Lab does not have the right of rejection or the right to stop the work. City Engineer will direct the Project contractor to stop work at appropriate times for Lab to conduct the sampling, testing or inspection of operations covered by the Agreement. ARTICLE 4. FIELD MONITORING AND TESTING 4.1 City and Lab agree that Lab will be on-site to perform inspections for contracted services. The City and Lab also agree that Lab will not assume responsibility for Project contractor's means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, and it is understood that the final services provided by Lab will not relieve the Project contractor of its responsibilities for performing the work in accordance with the Project plans and specifications. For the purposes of this Agreement, the word "inspection" is used to mean periodic observation of the work and the conducting of tests by Lab as specified in the Agreement. Continuous monitoring by Lab or its subcontractors does not mean that Lab is approving placement of materials. Inspection is not and should not be construed to be a warranty by Lab to the City or any other party. 4.2 Samples collected or tested by Lab remain the property of the City while in the custody of the Lab. Lab will retain the samples for a period of 60 days following the date of submission of any report related to the sample. Following the retention period, Lab will dispose of non-hazardous samples, and return hazardous, acutely toxic or radioactive samples and samples' containers and residues to City. City agrees to accept such samples and samples' containers. ARTICLE 5. STANDARD OF CARE AND WARRANTY Services performed by Lab will be conducted in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by reputable members of the profession currently practicing under similar conditions in the same locality. No other warranty either expressed or implied is made or intended by the Agreement or any reports. Lab will not be responsible for the interpretation or use by others of data developed by Lab.

This indemnification does not apply to any liability resulting from the negligent acts or omissions of the City or its employees, to the extent of such negligence. Lab shall defend Indemnitee, with counsel satisfactory to the City Attorney, from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities or costs, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs, if the claim is not based wholly or partly on the negligence of, fault of or breach of contract by Indemnitee. If a claim is based wholly or partly on the negligence of, fault of or breach of contract by Indemnitee, the Lab shall reimburse the City's reasonable attorney's fees in proportion to the Lab's liability.
