SECTION 2. WITHDRAWAL OR REVISION OF BIDS
A. A bid may be withdrawn not later than one hour prior to the scheduled closing time for receipt
of bids, provided a request in writing, signed by the bidder is filed with PPG prior to that time.
When such a request is received, the bid will be returned to the bidder unopened.
B. Written communications, over the signature of the bidder, to modify bids will be accepted and
the bids corrected in accordance therewith if received by PPG not later than one hour prior to
the scheduled closing time for receipt of bids. Oral, telephonic and telegraphic modifications
will not be considered.
C. No bid can be modified or corrected within the hour before that set for opening bids.
D. No bid can be withdrawn within one hour before that set for opening such bid except as
provided under law. i.e. bids containing patently obvious, unintentional, and substantial
mechanical, clerical, or mathematical errors, or errors of unintentional omission of a substantial
quantity of work, labor, material, or services made directly in the compilation of the bid,. Such
a bid may be withdrawn by the contractor only if clear and convincing sworn, written evidence
of such errors is furnished to the Department of Engineering within forty-eight (48) hours of
the bid opening, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays.
Such errors must be clearly shown by objective evidence drawn from inspection by PPG of the
original work papers, documents, or material used in the preparation of the bid sought to be
withdrawn. If PPG determines that the error is a patently obvious mechanical, clerical, or
mathematical error, or unintentional omission of a substantial quantity of work, labor, material,
or service, as opposed to a judgment error, and that the bid was submitted in good faith it shall
accept the withdrawal and return the bid security to the contractor.
However, if such clear and convincing, sworn, written evidence of such errors are not furnished
to PPG within 48 hours, and a contractor attempts to withdraw their bid, PPG will retain the
bid security provided by the contractor. Any release or return of a contractor’s bid security
after the 48 hour period is prohibited as a matter of law.
A contractor who attempts to withdraw a bid under these provisions shall not be allowed to
resubmit a bid on the project as provided by law.
SECTION 3. INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
A. No oral interpretation will be made to any Bidder as to the meaning of the drawings,
specifications, or contract documents. Every request for such interpretation shall be made in
writing and addressed and forwarded to the Engineer, Architect or person distributing plans
and specifications. No inquiry received within five (5) days prior to the day fixed for opening
of the bids will be given consideration. Every interpretation made to the Bidder shall be in the
form of an addendum to the Specifications. All such addenda shall become a part of the
Contract Documents. Failure of any Bidder to request any such interpretation shall not relieve
any Bidder from any obligation under his Bid as submitted without modification.
B. The specifications and plans are complementary of each other and all work called for or
reasonably implied by either shall be performed as if called for by both. In case of conflict
between the requirements of the specifications and plans, the specifications shall take
precedence. Figured dimensions shall take precedence over scale dimensions, and larger scale
details shall take precedence over smaller scale details in the general work drawings.
SECTION 4. REJECTION OF BIDS
A. PPG reserves the right to reject any and all Bids and to make award as it may elect, pursuant
to the law. Incomplete, informal, or unbalanced Bids may be rejected. Reasonable grounds for
belief that any one Bidder is concerned, directly or indirectly, with more than one Bid will
cause rejections of all Bids wherein such Bidder is concerned. A Bidder shall furnish
satisfactory evidence of financial competence and ability to perform the work stipulated in his
Proposal. Incompetence to properly perform the work will constitute cause for rejection. In
addition, PPG reserves the right to inquire about past performance regarding lawsuits, lien
filings, judgments, fines and/or assessments by the State Contractors’ Licensing Board, etc.
and utilize such past performance in grading any proposal.
B. Additionally, bids may be considered irregular and are subject to rejection for any of the
following, but is not limited to the following circumstances;
(1) If the bid form is on a form other than that furnished by PPG or if the form is altered.
(2) If affidavits required by law are not returned and/or are not properly executed and notarized
prior to awarding of contract.
(3) If there are unauthorized additions to any contract document, conditional or alternate bids
or irregularities which alter the general terms and conditions, the plans or specifications,
or make the bid incomplete, indefinite, or ambiguous as to its meaning.
(4) If the bidder adds provisions on the bid form reserving the right to accept or reject the
award or to enter into the contract pursuant to the award.
(5) If an owner or a principal officer of the bidding firm is an owner or a principal officer of a
firm which has been declared by the PPG to be ineligible to bid.
(6) If the proposed bid guarantee does not meet the requirements of Section 1E Bid Guarantee.
(7) If more than one proposal for the same work, services, materials or supplies is received
from an individual, partner, firm, corporation, joint venture, other legal entity, or
combination thereof under the same or a different name.
(8) The bid form is not properly signed or the authority to sign of the person submitting the
bid is deemed insufficient or unacceptable.
(9) Any other reasons for rejection set forth by State or Parish laws, ordinances or resolutions,
including but not limited to, the Charter for Local Self-Government, Plaquemines Parish,
Louisiana, §3.04(C), (D) and §4.04 (E), §7.06 (A) and (C).
C. In general, PPG shall have the right to reject any or all bids and in particular to reject a bid
not accompanied by any required bid security or data required by the Bid Documents or a
bid in any way incomplete or irregular.
SECTION 5. FAMILIARITY WITH LAWS AND ORDINANCES
A. Bidders shall familiarize themselves with and shall comply with all applicable law of all
authorities having jurisdiction over construction of the project, which may directly or indirectly
affect the work or its prosecution. Bidders are in particular urged to consult with their attorneys
with respect to the requirements of the Public Works Act. These laws and/or ordinances are
deemed incorporated in the contract, the same as if written therein in full.
B. In case of conflict between the requirements of these specifications and any State and/or
Federal Regulations or Laws, the State and/or Federal Regulations or Laws shall take
precedence in all cases in which State and/or Federal Funding of the contract, in whole or in
part, depends upon compliance with said State and/or Federal Regulations or Laws.
SECTION 6. EXAMINATION OF SITE, DRAWINGS, ETC.
Prior to submitting a bid each Bidder shall visit the site of the proposed work and fully acquaint
himself with all surface and subsurface conditions and also with forseeable, periodic weather
conditions and high water levels or high tides as they may exist so that he may fully understand
the facilities, difficulties, and restrictions attending the execution of the Work under this Contract.
Contractors are specifically placed on notice that work stoppages ordered by the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers due to high water stages is a condition of the site and is not a basis for the Contractor
to obtain liquidated damages or any mobilization/re-mobilization costs.
Bidders shall also thoroughly examine and be familiar with Drawings, Specifications, and Contract
Documents. The failure or omission of any Bidder to receive or examine any form, instrument,
drawing, or document or to visit the site and acquaint himself with conditions there existing, shall
in no way relieve any Bidder from any obligation with respect to his Bid and the responsibility in
the premises rests with him. Any pre-bid test and boring data in connection with subsurface
conditions which have been furnished to the bidder shall not be considered as fully representative
of subsurface conditions existing throughout the area tested nor shall they in any way be binding
upon PPG, it being understood that said data is furnished the bidder for his convenience only and
the bidder shall be solely responsible for conducting his own boring explorations he deems
necessary in preparing his bid.
Submission of a bid shall be considered prima facie evidence that the bidder has made all
examinations including that of the site of the proposed public work and is on notice and satisfied
as to the conditions to be encountered in performing the work and as to requirements of the plans,
project specifications, any applicable resolution/ordinance, and contract forms. No claims shall be
made against PPG for additional compensation or for any delay days due to conditions arising
during progress of the work which would have been disclosed through the investigation of the site
by the bidder, which might be in variance with pre-bid boring data or which arise out of variations
which bidder would have or should have discovered through examination.
All bidders acknowledge that entry into contract, continuation of contract and payment on all
public work projects are contingent upon the availability of funds of PPG or payment of funds
from third parties as the case may be.
SECTION 7. AWARD OF CONTRACT
A. If there is an award of contract, such will be to the lowest responsible Bidder whose Proposal
shall have complied with all the requirements necessary to render it formal. The successful
Bidder will receive a written notice of award via fax, email, or letter mailed to the address
shown on the Proposal that his bid has been accepted and awarded the Contract. No award
will be made to any Bidder until all representations, certificates and policies of insurance,
Notice of Award receipt, affidavits, performance bonds, labor and materials payment bonds,
or any other documentation required has been submitted and accepted by PPG.
B. PPG reserves the right to award contracts or place orders on a lump sum or individual item
basis, or such combination as shall, in its judgment, be in the best interest of PPG. Every
contract or order shall be awarded to the LOWEST RESPONSIBLE BIDDER, taking into
consideration the CONFORMITY WITH THE SPECIFICATIONS, and the DELIVERY
AND/OR COMPLETION DATE.
C. All bidders acknowledge that an award of a bid, subsequent entry into contract and
performance of the contract is contingent upon the availability of funds, permits, licenses
and/or approvals from PPG and/or third parties. Bidders acknowledge this condition and waive
any claim under any cause for failure to award or delay in award, and agree to hold-harmless,
defend and indemnify PPG for any claims for claims arising under such causes of action. A
contract shall be subject to termination at the convenience of PPG in the event of non-
availability of funds due to revenue decreases or a change in the scope of contract requires
expenditures in excess of those appropriated.
D. All bidders are on notice that in the event the proposed public work is funded in whole or in
part with federal funds or other funds which are not available to PPG at the time of opening of
bids by virtue of the fact that PPG is not in actual possession of such federal or other funds,
the time provisions set out in La.R.S. 38:2215 are not applicable, pursuant to authority set out
in La.R.S. 38:2215 (D).

FUNDING SOURCE: _____________________________
REPRESENTATIONS
WHEREAS, the CONTRACTOR has submitted a written proposal to the PARISH, dated
__________________,., 20 20____,
. to furnish all labor, tools, equipment, materials, supplies, etc. and
to perform all work required in accordance with the plans, specifications, terms and conditions for
those certain prices stipulated in such proposal; and,
WHEREAS, the CONTRACTOR does hereby agree to supply all labor, tools, equipment,
materials, supplies, etc. and all of the things necessary in accordance with terms, conditions,
provisions, instructions and stipulations contained in and shown on the plans and specifications
prepared to govern the above mentioned work and project;
WHEREAS, the CONTRACTOR expresses that it has the ability and required experience,
education, expertise, equipment, skills, training, and personnel and is capable of providing such
services/or supplies for a public work and for the Project in particular;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties hereto
as contained in this Agreement and other documents comprising the Contract Documents, and any
attachments hereto, all incorporated herein and made a part hereof, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
1
The plans, general and special conditions, specifications, and drawings prepared for or by
the PARISH and the written proposal submitted by the CONTRACTOR, all essential to a full
and proper understanding of this Agreement, are hereby made a part hereof as if set forth herein
in full.
ARTICLE 2
While carrying out its obligations under this agreement, CONTRACTOR shall be acting
in the capacity of an independent CONTRACTOR and not as an employee of PARISH with
respect to the services and obligations being performed, dealings with other agencies, and
administration of any contracts that may be contemplated or intended by the appropriate provisions
of this Agreement, except with respect to the payment of sales and use tax payments. PARISH is
exempt from the payment of sales and use taxes and all purchases and leases of things by
CONTRACTOR shall be free of sales and use taxes. All transactions exempt from sales and use
tax are subject to audit by PPG to determine that Contractor has complied with this requirement,
and any payment of sales and use taxes for exempt purchases and/or leases shall be charged solely
to CONTRACTOR’S account.
In all cases where CONTRACTOR's employees (defined to include CONTRACTOR's

direct, borrowed, special, or statutory employees) are covered by the Louisiana Worker's
Compensation Act, La. R.S. 23:1021 et seq., PARISH and CONTRACTOR agree that all work
and operations performed by CONTRACTOR, its subcontractors, materialmen, suppliers and its
employees pursuant to this Agreement are an integral part of and are essential to the ability of
PARISH to generate PARISH'S goods, products and services for purposes of La. R.S.
23:1061(A)(1). Furthermore, PARISH and CONTRACTOR agree that PARISH is the principal
or statutory employer of CONTRACTOR'S employees for the purposes of La. R.S. 23:1061(A)
(3). Irrespective of PARISH'S status as the statutory employer or special employer (as defined in
La. R.S. 23:1031 (c)) of CONTRACTOR'S employees, CONTRACTOR shall remain primarily
responsible for the payment of Louisiana Worker's Compensation benefits to its employees, and
shall not be entitled to see contribution for any such payments from PARISH.
ARTICLE 3
For and in consideration of the proper, faithful and complete performance of all the
obligations, duties and promises assumed and or made by the CONTRACTOR, the PARISH
agrees to pay the CONTRACTOR in accordance with the terms and in the manner fully provided
for in the referenced plans, specifications and proposals, and CONTRACTOR shall accept as full
compensation therefor, the sum (subject to adjustment as provided in the Contract Documents) of
_____________________________ Dollars ($____________) for all Work covered by and
included in the Contract award; payment thereof to be made in current funds in the manner
provided in the Contract Documents.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, CONTRACTOR

acknowledges and agrees that payments due under this agreement are subject to an annual
appropriation dependency requirement. Renewal and/or continuation of this Agreement is
contingent upon the appropriation of funds or, if the payments are in the nature of payments from
third parties, are contingent upon approval of such payments by such third parties. If the PARISH
fails to appropriate sufficient monies to provide for payments, or if a third party fails to make
payments in full, the Agreement shall terminate on the last day of the last fiscal year for which
funds were appropriated or payment by a third party was made. These grounds for termination is
in addition to any other grounds that are identified in the General Conditions or the Supplementary
Conditions.
Estimated quantities are not guaranteed, and determinations of actual quantities and
classification are to be made by CONTRACTOR. Unit prices are computed as provided in the
General Conditions.
ARTICLE 4
2
A. All notices, letters, and other communications directed to PARISH shall be
delivered or addressed and mailed (along with three copies), postage prepaid to the
CONTRACTOR at the address in the Invitation to Bid, with four additional copies addressed and
mailed to:

Department of Engineering
333 F. Edward Hebert Blvd., Building 500
Belle Chasse, LA 70037
B. In addition, copies of all correspondence directed to the CONTRACTOR or by

CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER shall be sent to the PARISH. The address of CONTRACTOR
in this Agreement and CONTRACTOR'S office in the vicinity of the project are both hereby
designated as the places to which all notices, letters, and other communications to
CONTRACTOR will be mailed or delivered. CONTRACTOR shall notify ENGINEER and
PARISH of any change of address immediately.
ARTICLE 5
NOTICE TO PROCEED/TASK ORDERS
CONTRACTOR shall proceed on the Project upon receipt of an executed contract and a
Notice to Proceed issued by PARISH. The PARISH reserves the right to partition the Project by
separate task orders and notices to proceed. Whenever third party funding is used, or likely to be
used, in the financing of a project; no contract or meeting of the minds shall be deemed to have
taken place unless and until both an executed contract and a notice to proceed are signed by the
Parish President.
ARTICLE 6
COMPLETION
The Project will be turn-key ready for use in accordance with the General Conditions
within 457 days after the date the Contract Times commence to run. This time allocation allows
for 104 days of complete lost production delay due to inclement weather or as otherwise set out in
the General Conditions, but only if such lost production has been timely noticed in writing, no
more than 24 hours of the event, to both PARISH and ENGINEER, as the case may be, and
thereafter approved by PARISH. No monetary compensation shall be ever due CONTRACTOR
for such delays.
ARTICLE 7
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
A. CONTRACTOR recognizes and agrees that time is of the essence of this

Agreement and that the Work must be turn-key ready for use in every respect within the applicable
time limits set forth in the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR agrees that it is difficult to
estimate the damage which the delay in completion of the Work would cause the PARISH and
accordingly, if the CONTRACTOR shall neglect, fail, or refuse to complete the Work in
accordance with the Contract Times specified in the Contract Documents, or within any extension
thereof granted by the PARISH in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Contract
Documents then, in addition to any other damages, the CONTRACTOR agrees, as a part of the
consideration for the award of this Contact, that PARISH shall receive the amount or amounts per
day set forth in paragraph B below from CONTRACTOR, not as a penalty but as stipulated
("liquidated") damages for delay for such breach of contract, such amounts being specifically
herein agreed upon in advance as the measure of damages to the PARISH on account of such
delay in the completion of the Work.
B. CONTRACTOR obligates to pay PARISH liquidated damages in the amount of

One Thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for each and every calendar day for any failure or refusal to
complete the Work until the Work is finally completed and turn-key ready for use in every respect
in accordance with the Contract Documents.
C. The number of calendar days in default shall be calculated exclusive of the day on
which the applicable completion time was specified and shall include each and every other
3
calendar day up to and including the day that the CONTRACTOR has been determined to finally
satisfy its obligation for the applicable degree of completion under the Contract Documents.
D. CONTRACTOR further agrees that the expiration of the Contract Time shall, ipso
facto, constitute a putting in default where CONTRACTOR has failed to complete the Work in
accordance with the applicable Contract Times, and PARISH need not formally place the
CONTRACTOR in default, the CONTRACTOR hereby expressly waiving any and all notices
of default.
E. CONTRACTOR agrees and consents that the liquidated damages of any kind shall
be deducted from any payment due to CONTRACTOR and that CONTRACTOR shall accept
the payment, reduced by the amount of the liquidated damages so deducted, in full satisfaction of
the Contract Price. CONTRACTOR also confesses judgment for payment of liquidated damages.
No delay damages or mobilization/remobilization costs are ever due CONTRACTOR as a result
of a stoppage resulting from a local, state or federal order, any emergency declared by a local, state
or federal authority, or for failure of CONTRACTOR to abide by the provisions of the contract
documents.
ARTICLE 8
PAYMENTS
CONTRACTOR shall submit Applications for Payment in accordance with the General
Conditions. Applications for Payment will be processed as provided in the General Conditions.
PARISH will tender progress payments credited against the Contract Price on the basis of
CONTRACTOR'S Applications for Payment only after all approvals of the Applications for
Payment. All such payments will be measured by the schedule of values established pursuant to
the General Conditions (and in the case of Unit Price Work based on the number of units
completed) or, in the event there is no schedule of values, as provided in the General Conditions.
Only upon written acceptance of the Work after receipt of the written representation of
both the CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER that the Work is turnkey ready and receipt of the
Final Application for Payment, will then PARISH pay the remainder of the Contract Price as
recommended by ENGINEER as provided in the General Conditions and any relevant
Supplementary Conditions less and except any amounts for offset as the case may be.
CONTRACTOR understands and acknowledges that all payments shall be made by the
PARISH on a pay-when-paid basis, and that delays in payment may result; especially when third
party financing is employed, to avoid deficit spending in accordance with State Law and the Parish
Charter.
OWNER shall retain the following percentages of each progress payment until payment
is due under the terms and conditions governing retainage payment:
CONTRACT AMOUNT RETAINAGE
$0 - $499,999.99 10%
$500,000 or greater 5%
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties agree that no
indebtedness shall be incurred by the PARISH in any manner unless and until a written Notice to
Proceed is issued by the PARISH to the CONTRACTOR, and the PARISH in accordance with
law certifies that funds are available to discharge the obligations contemplated hereby.
CONTRACTOR acknowledges that PARISH or other government agency may at any

time audit requests for payment by CONTRACTOR. The CONTRACTOR shall provide, at
contractor’s cost, all records required by PARISH or such other government agency to determine
actual costs of any item under the contract. Any cost-plus charges or attempted pass-through of
costs of insurance, bonds, services, goods and labor attributable to administrative overhead of not
more than 15% as set out and capped by La. R.S. 38:2212 (C) (1), is disallowed and shall be solely
to CONTRACTOR’S account. Such an over charge shall, ipso facto, be deemed a condition of
default under the Contract Documents and the CONTRACTOR is liable to PARISH for all such
4
sums, which CONTRACTOR stipulates the PARISH can deduct from any payments due to
CONTRACTOR.
In no event shall CONTRACTOR or any person or entity engaged by the

CONTRACTOR for goods, services, supplies or work under this contract charge PARISH for
any sales or use tax on services, equipment, labor and supplies as PARISH is exempt under state
law and any payment of such taxes shall be solely to CONTRACTOR’S account.
CONTRACTOR confesses judgment in full for all such overcharges or payments of sales and use
taxes for which PARISH is exempt, such sums the CONTRACTOR stipulates the PARISH can
deduct from any payments due to CONTRACTOR.

and any other person, natural or juridical, and (b) destruction or damage to any property, caused
in whole or in part, by any negligent act or omission of CONTRACTOR, its agents, owners,

6
The CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain at CONTRACTOR’S expense the
insurance coverages required in the General Conditions or as listed in the most recent edition of
the Louisiana Capital Improvement Projects Procedure Manual for Design and Construction,
whichever policies provide the greater coverage to the PARISH. All notarized representations
required from CONTRACTOR’S insurers, certificates of coverage and insurance policies shall
be furnished in advance of the execution of the agreement to the PARISH.
CONTRACTOR shall not start any work unless and until CONTRACTOR has in place
and in full force and effect all of the insurance and Bonds which the CONTRACTOR is required
to obtain. Any delay in obtaining confirmation of the existence of and the coverage or protection
to be provided by the insurance, Bonds, and other security required by the Agreement and
compliance with the terms of the Agreement therefor shall be at PARISH’S sole option, a basis
for termination of this agreement as a condition of default or may be counted as workdays for
which penalty damages are assessed against CONTRACTOR. The Agreement shall not be in
force or binding on PARISH until satisfactory Bonds, insurance and other security have been
provided in accordance with the Agreement and CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR’S
insurer(s) have delivered satisfactory written representation that the Bond(s), insurance(s) or other
security will provide coverages and protections as required in the Agreement.
A. ALL INSURANCE COVERAGE SHALL SUBSTANTIVELY PROVIDE FOR THE
FOLLOWING:
1. The insurers will have no right of recovery or subrogation against the PARISH.
2. The PARISH shall be named as an additional named insured as regards to all insurance.
3. The insurers shall have no recourse against the PARISH for payment of any premiums or for
assessments under any policy.

the CONTRACTOR.

cover potential redhibitory defects.
6. Insurance shall not be canceled without receipt by PARISH from the insurer of written notice
of cancellation of not less than thirty (30) days in advance of such cancellation.
7. No endorsements issued after the awarding of the contract shall diminish the scope or amount
of coverage under the policy(s) of insurance.
B. Prior to the execution of this Agreement the CONTRACTOR shall provide at its own expense
the required proof of insurance coverage called for by the General Conditions to the PARISH,
issued by insurers who stipulate that they are providing insurance in accordance with all of the
provisions of the contract documents. Only those insurers who possess authority to do business in
the State of Louisiana and have an A.M. Best rating of no less than A: VI are acceptable to PARISH.
C. Under no event will any wasting limits policy or any policy which deducts the insurer’s costs of
defense from the amount of insurance coverage, or any insurance which sets an aggregate loss limit
per project below any per occurrence requirement, be deemed acceptable.
D. Any communication regarding an insurance policy shall reference this agreement by number,
and by name, if applicable.
E. PARISH is in no event a fiduciary for any party. PARISH shall have power to adjust and
settle any loss with any insurer.
PARISH has the right but no duty to review any Bond or insurance prior to commencing the work.

unsatisfactory to the PARISH for any reason, the CONTRACTOR shall promptly obtain a Bond or
new insurance, submit the same to the PARISH for approval and submit a certificate thereof as
7
provided above. Failure of the CONTRACTOR to take out and/or to maintain a bond or insurance
shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from any liability under the contract documents, nor shall the
bond and insurance requirements be construed to conflict with the obligation of the CONTRACTOR
concerning indemnification, defense and hold harmless.
Failure of CONTRACTOR to provide and or maintain bonds and insurance as required shall
subject the CONTRACTOR to a penalty of five thousand dollars ($5000.00) per day for each day
that the bond or insurance is deficient and/or not provided, in addition to any actual damages incurred
by PARISH due to the failure of contractor to provide and or maintain bonds and insurance as
required. This penalty in no way shall be interpreted as a waiver of CONTRACTOR’s obligations
to defend, indemnify and hold-harmless PARISH against claims nor of any other right of PARISH
to seek damages from CONTRACTOR.
PARISH may purchase and maintain additional liability insurance to protect against claims
arising from operations under the agreement. CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR’S insurers
shall have no claim or right of subrogation against such insurance.
Without prejudice to any other right or remedy, including, without limitation, termination for
default, the PARISH may elect to obtain Bonds and insurance to protect the PARISH’s interests
at the expense of the CONTRACTOR in the event of the failure of contractor to provide and/or
maintain bonds and insurance as required, and the contract price shall be adjusted accordingly.
In the event of any claim made against PARISH during the time that there is any deficiency in
bond or insurance, CONTRACTOR hereby confesses judgment for all amounts awarded in
judgment, together with all costs and attorney fees, waiving any and all defenses, citation and
summons and any delays.
The Parties agree to immediately notify each other of any accident or incident in which
physical injury/death and/or property damage occurs and to complete an accident report for each such
occurrence and to provide the other Party with a copy of each such report. Each Party agrees to notify
the other Party after receipt of any claim for which it may seek indemnification. Contractor shall
promptly make claim on any and all insurance in all such events within three days of the event, and
provide written notice to PARISH of the making of any such claim on an insurer.
ARTICLE 12: DOCUMENTS
In the event that the CONTRACTOR modifies any contract document without the express
prior written consent of PARISH, in any manner, this Agreement may be declared suspended,
discontinued or terminated by PARISH. Any such modification done before the execution of this
Agreement shall, ipso facto, result in the forfeiture of the bid bond. Any such modification done
during the performance of the Agreement shall, ipso facto, result in the forfeiture of the performance
bond.
The CONTRACTOR agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless PARISH and
confesses judgment in full amount in favor of PARISH against any and all causes of action,
liabilities, claims, demands, penalties, fines, forfeitures, suits, judgments, and costs and expenses
thereto (including costs of defense, settlement and reasonable attorney fees), which PARISH may
hereafter incur or become responsible to pay, arising out of or attributable to the modification of
the contract documents by the CONTRACTOR.
All data, documents, notes, drawings, tracings, plans, specifications and files collected and/or
prepared by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall be the property of the PARISH,
except the CONTRACTOR'S personal, personnel and administrative files.

shall be in the 25th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Plaquemines, State of Louisiana.
