Any such order shall be specifically identified as a Stop Work Order issued pursuant to this Section. Upon receipt of such an Order, the Contractor shall forthwith comply with its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize the incurrence of costs allocable to the Work covered by the Order during the period of work stoppage consistent with public health and safety.

(ii) terminate the Work covered by such order as provided in the Termination Section of this Agreement.

(i) the Stop Work Order results in an increase in the time required for, or in the Contractor’s cost properly allocable to, the performance of any part of this Agreement, and
(ii) the Contractor asserts a claim for such adjustments within 30 days after the end of the period of Work stoppage; provided that, if NYSERDA decides the facts justify such action, NYSERDA may receive and act upon any such claim asserted at any time prior to final payment under this Agreement.
