Plant Establishment. Plant establishment periods for highway planting performed in conjunction with a roadway construction project must follow the policy described in this section under the heading “Separate Contract Requirement for Highway Planting Work on Roadway Construction Projects.” Plant establishment periods for highway planting performed under a separate contract from a roadway construction project must be three years in length. Plant establishment periods for required mitigation planting may exceed three years when required by a regulatory agency. Exceptions to this policy must receive concurrence from both district maintenance and the district landscape architect and approval from the Headquarters Landscape Architecture Program.
Plant Establishment. Monitor contractor efforts for the plant establishment throughout the project including intermittent inspection of plants and verifying that irrigation systems wor properly and that all plants are established or replaced.

Plant EstablishmentThe rate at which full site coverage by vegetation is achieved, after completion of the roadwork part of a contract, depends on a combination of factors, including site environmental and soil conditions, mulch application, and water treatment. It also depends on design and maintenance decisions. Design issues include plant species selection, types specified (large or small trees, shrubs, ground cover, etc.), size, and spacing. Maintenance issues include herbicide use and plant care during establishment. WSDOT landscape architects and restoration designers have experimented with design approaches and developed successful plant combinations and communities that respond to varied environmental conditions, requirements, and changing aesthetic preferences. Successful plant establishment depends on appropriate maintenance, with IVM being an important management approach and application tool for selecting and using the most appropriate maintenance methods. The Northwest Region's plant establishment crew is another way in which WSDOT is successfully responding to this critical period in the life cycle of all roadside vegetation. The plant establishment period for large-scale roadway construction contracts is typically three years. Urban roadsides are more stressful environments than typical planting conditions, and plants may be slower to become established. As a result, it may be desirable to have longer plant establishment periods for urban projects. Plant loss, during the establishment period, is typically due to installation of plants outside of the planting window, lack of watering or other care by the contractor, and/or acceptance of plants that were not hardened off, all of which can be controlled by careful observation and acceptance of installation by WSDOT designers. Plants replaced at the end of the three-year plant establishment period are essentially newly planted, i.e., less than fully established, when the project is handed over to WSDOT for maintenance. Projects in which the percentage of replaced plants is high require considerably more work by WSDOT maintenance personnel than do fully established projects and place an undue burden on maintenance resources and budgets. Indeed, all work that disturbs established roadside vegetation, even small-scale work such as installing light poles, utility infrastructure, etc., results in increased work for maintenance, as it converts areas of existing roadsides from relatively low maintenance levels to conditi...
Plant Establishment. Strong plant establishment with effective weed control is a necessary first step to ensure low lifecycle costs for projects. The plant establishment period is typically three years following plant installation. This period is intended to quickly, fully, and densely establish desired plants in a weed-free state on roadsides to minimize the potential for subsequent weed invasion, which is more likely to occur on bare or un-vegetated ground. Roadsides with poorly established vegetation at the end of the establishment period fail to meet WSDOT specifications, and if accepted by WSDOT they will result in extra, unbudgeted work for WSDOT maintenance crews. Transferring roadside projects to maintenance crews in poorly established conditions may result in short-term savings but will increase the likelihood of long-term weed infestation problems.
Plant Establishment. Over the 80 Working Days o The Project Manager will support the project on a limited basis, about 0.5 hours per week, on the average. o The Senior Documentation Specialist will support the project part time, or 20 hours per week, on the average. o The CITY will perform all certified payroll reviews – no Consultant Certified Payroll Specialist is included in this project team. o The Onsite Construction Observer will support the project full time, or 42.5 hours per week, on average. o Design Engineer of Record (Parametrix) support is anticipated as needed for submittal reviews, RFI’s, Change Management, and other tasks as identified in the Scope of Work.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the correct positioning of all parts of the Works, and shall rectify any error in the positions, levels, dimensions or alignment of the Works. The [650th (six hundred and fiftieth) day] from the Appointed Date shall be the scheduled completion date (the “Scheduled Completion Date”) and the Contractor agrees and undertakes that the construction shall be completed on or before the Scheduled Completion Date, including any extension thereof. (ii) The Contractor shall construct the Project Highway in accordance with the Project Completion Schedule set forth in Schedule-J. In the event that the Contractor fails to achieve any Project Milestone or the Scheduled Completion Date within a period of 30 (thirty) days from the date set forth in Schedule-J, unless such failure has occurred due to Force Majeure or for reasons solely attributable to the Authority, it shall pay Damages to the Authority of a sum calculated at the rate of 0.05% (zero point zero five percent) of the Contract Price for delay of each day reckoned from the date specified in Schedule –J and until such Project Milestone is achieved or the Project Highway is completed; provided that if the period for any or all Project Milestones or the Scheduled Completion Date is extended in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the dates set forth in Schedule-J shall be deemed to be modified accordingly and the provisions of this Agreement shall apply as if Schedule-J has been amended as above; provided further that in the event the Project Highway is completed within or before the Scheduled Completion Date including any Time Extension, applicable for that work or section, the Damages paid under this Clause 10.3 (ii) shall be refunded by the Authority to the Contractor, but without any interest thereon. The Parties agree that for determining achievement or delays in completion of the Project Milestones or the Project on the due date, the works affected due to delay in providing the site for which time extension has been granted beyond the Scheduled Completion Date will be excluded. For example on the due date to achieve the Project Milestone-I (i.e., Stage Payments of 10% (ten percent) of Contract Price on 180th (one hundred and eighty) day from the Appointed Date), if 5% (five percent) of the project length corresponding to the Project Milestone-I is not handed over or lately handed over resulting in the extension of completion of this 5% (five percent) length beyond Scheduled Completion Date, Stage Payment of 10% X 0.95 = 9.5% only is to be achieved by 180th (one hundred and eighty) day. For the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that recovery of Damages under this Clause 10.3 (ii) shall be without prejudice to the rights of the Authority under this Agreement including the right of Termination thereof.

The Parties expressly agree that the total amount of Damages under Clause 10.3 (ii) shall not exceed 10% (ten percent) of the Contract Price. If the damages exceed 10% (ten percent) of the Contract Price, the Contractor shall be deemed to be in default of this agreement having no cure and the Authority shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by issuing a Termination Notice in accordance with the provisions of Clause 23.1 (ii). (iv) In the event that the Contractor fails to achieve the Project Completion within a period of 90 (ninety) days from the Schedule Completion Date set forth in Schedule-J, unless such failure has occurred due to Force Majeure or for reasons solely attributable to the Authority, the contractor shall be deemed to be ineligible for bidding any future projects of the Authority, both as the sole party or as one of the parties of Joint Venture/ Consortium during the period from Scheduled Completion Date to issuance of Completion Certificate.
