Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If the Contractor encounters conditions at the site that are (1) subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions that differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, that differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall promptly provide notice to the Owner and the Architect before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than twenty-one (21) calendar days after first observance of the conditions. The Owner will promptly investigate such conditions and, if the Owner determines that they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, will authorize an equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Owner determines that the conditions at the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified, the Owner shall promptly notify the Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. If the Contractor disputes the Owner’s determination, the Contractor party may assert a Claim as provided in Article 15.

Concealed or Unknown Conditions. 7.4.1 If the Owner or the Contractor discover conditions at the Site which are: .1 subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions which existed before the commencement of the Work which differ materially from those indicated in, or inferable from, the Agreement; or
Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1) sub-surface or otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, then written notice by the observing party shall be given to the other party promptly before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than ten (10) Days after first observance of the conditions. The Owner shall promptly investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, shall provide an adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Time, or both. If the Owner determines that the conditions at the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified, the Owner shall so notify the Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. Opposition to the Owner’s determination must be made in writing by the Contractor, stating his reasons therefor, within ten (10) Days after the Owner has given notice of the decision.
Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If the Contractor encounters conditions at the site that are (1) subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions that differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature that differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall promptly provide notice to the Owner and the Architect before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than seven (7) days after first observance of the conditions; otherwise Contractor’s Claim will be barred. The Architect will promptly investigate such conditions and, if the Architect determines that they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, will recommend that an equitable adjustment be made in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Owner or the Architect determines that the conditions at the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified, the Owner or Architect shall promptly notify the Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. If either party disputes the Owner’s or Architect’s determination or recommendation, that party may submit a Claim as provided in Article 15. No increase to the Contract Sum or Contract Time shall be allowed if the Contractor knew of the concealed conditions prior to its executing the Contract or such conditions were reasonably discernable from the bidding documents or a careful review of the project site. If the Contractor encounters such a condition, and proceeds to perform any additional work or incur any additional jobsite costs in regard to such condition without prior written direction from the Owner, Contractor will be deemed to have acknowledged that such condition does not entitle Contractor to any additional compensation or extension of the Contract Time.
