Common use of Re-Testing Clause in Contracts

Re-Testing. If the Authority, in good faith, acting reasonably, or public authorities having jurisdiction determine that the Work or portions thereof or goods, materials or components required as provided for by the Contract Documents require additional testing, inspection or approval to be given by such public authorities not included under the above paragraph, the Authority will instruct the Contractor to make arrangements for such additional testing, inspection or approval as a cost of the Work by an entity acceptable to the Authority and the Contractor shall give timely notice to the Authority of when and where tests and inspections are to be made so the Authority may observe such procedures and shall promptly obtain and furnish copies of each test report to the Authority. Furthermore, if the above procedures for testing, inspection or approval reveal failure of the Work or portions thereof, or of goods, materials or components required or provided for by the Contract Documents, to comply with requirements established by the Contract or any laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders of public authorities having jurisdiction, the Contractor shall bear, at its sole cost and expense, all costs made necessary by such failure including those of repeated testing, inspection and approval procedures.
