and the name and address of the Bidder. If a Bid is sent by mail, the sealed envelope containing the

Bid must be enclosed in a separate package plainly marked on the outside with the notation

Bids received after the date and time prescribed for the opening of bids, or not submitted at the correct

location or in the designated manner, will not be accepted and will be returned to the Bidder unopened.

The Owner (awarding authority) reserves the right to reject any or all bids should the Owner deem it to

be in the public interest to do so.

The Owner may reject bids which are on a form not filled in. The Owner may reject bids which in its sole

judgment are incomplete, conditional, obscure or not responsive or which contain additions not called

for, erasures not properly initialed, alterations, or similar irregularities, or the Owner may waive such

omissions, conditions or irregularities.

Unopened Bids may be withdrawn by an appropriate document duly executed in the same manner that

a Bid must be executed and delivered to the plan where Bids are to be submitted prior to the date and

time for the opening of Bids. Upon receipt of such notice, the unopened Bid will be returned to the

Bidder.

If a Bidder wishes to modify its Bid prior to Bid opening, Bidder must first withdraw its initial Bid in the

manner specified in this section and submit a new Bid prior to the date and time for the opening of Bids.

substantial mistake in the preparation of its Bid, the Bidder may withdraw its Bid. Thereafter, if the Work

is rebid, the Bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the Work.

Unless a bid is withdrawn as provided above, the bidder agrees that it shall be deemed open for

acceptance until the agreement has been executed by both parties thereto or until the owner notifies a

bidder in writing that his/her bid is rejected or that the Owner does not intend to accept it. Notice of

acceptance of a bid shall not constitute rejection of any other bid.

Workers’ Compensation, liability, and other insurance requirements are outlined in the Construction

Agreement. The Contractor shall comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations of the Federal, State

and Municipal Governments which may be in force during the life of the contract, in any manner

affecting his employees or the conduct of the work or the material used or employed in the work. The

reviewed and approved as to form by the Owner before work commences. Bidders that may “self-insure”

are to provide detailed evidence of coverage and may be required to produce additional financial

disclosures, such that any and all concerns raised by any Owner shall be redressed to the satisfaction of

said Owner. A bidder that fails to comply with said additional requests by Owner may be deemed to be

unresponsive and as such may be precluded from any further consideration by the Owner.
