Common use of Omissions and Misdescriptions Clause in Contracts

Omissions and Misdescriptions. Omissions from the drawings or specifications or the misdescription of details of work which are manifestly necessary to carry out the intent of the drawings and specifications, or which are customarily performed, shall be called to the attention of County Project Manager as soon as possible. County Project Manager shall promptly notify the Contractor of the correction or addition to be made. In the event the omission or misdirection is substantial and the custom of the trade or industry does not require the Contractor to perform the work without additional charge, County Project Manager may issue an additive or deductive change order therefore and the Contractor shall be compensated in the manner herein provided for change orders. Any adjustment by the Contractor without written determination shall be at Contractor’s own risk and expense.
