4. IT SHALL BE THE CONTRACTOR'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO VERIFY THE PRESENCE AND LOCATION OF ANY AND ALL EXISTING OVERHEAD AND/OR UNDERGROUND UTILITIES THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH THIS CONSTRUCTION, WHETHER OR NOT SAID UTILITIES ARE SHOWN ON THE CONSTRUCTION PLANS FOR THIS PROJECT.

5. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL MAKE EXPLORATORY EXCAVATIONS AND LOCATE EXISTING UNDERGROUND FACILITIES SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF CONSTRUCTION TO PERMIT THE REVISION OF THESE PLANS IF NECESSARY DUE TO A CONFLICT BETWEEN FACILITIES PROPOSED AND EXISTING FACILITIES.

6. IT SHALL BE THE CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY TO UNCOVER ALL EXISTING SEWER LINES BEING CONNECTED TO, AND TO VERIFY THE LOCATION, DEPTH, AND SIZE OF PIPE, BEFORE ANY CONSTRUCTION BEGINS. 

7. IT SHALL BE THE CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY TO COORDINATE WITH THE ENGINEER OF RECORD OR SURVEYOR, AND PROVIDE SUFFICIENT TIME FOR SAID ENGINEER OF RECORD OR SURVEYOR TO LOCATE ALL FACILITIES FOR AS-BUILT PURPOSES.  FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE SEWER FACILITIES WILL NOT BE ISSUED UNTIL AS-BUILT DRAWINGS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND ACCEPTED BY GLOBAL WATER RESOURCES.
