Common use of SUSPENSION OF THE WORK Clause in Contracts

SUSPENSION OF THE WORK. The Owner may, without cause, order the Contractor to suspend the Work in whole or in part for such period of time as the Owner may determine. Any such suspension shall commence on or before the seventh (7th) day after the Contractor’s receipt of written Notice thereof from the Owner. The Contractor shall resume any suspended Work within five (5) days of the Owner’s written Notice directing the same. Should a suspension of the entire Work which is ordered by the Owner continue for ninety (90) or more consecutive days, either Party may thereafter terminate this Agreement by written Notice to the other Party and the rights and remedies of the Contractor shall be the same as those which are expressed in Section 28.1 hereof in the event of termination for convenience by the Owner.
