Reseeding berms, easements and rights-of-way; re- planting trees, shrubs and other vegetation shall be done on a properly prepared surface using a good grade of topsoi I rather than subsurface soils. B. A II road repairs shall be based upon the condition of the road prior to construction. If the subject project results in a series of patches which will result in an uneven surface or will cause eventual surface damage or road deterioration, the final re- pair shall be a complete re-surfacing rather than a series of patches. This decision shall be made by the Vii lage Engineer, upon approval of the Manager. The additional cost of said repairs shall be re-im bursed to the Contractor from the Village, using the unit cost established in the contract or a pre- negotiated cost. tJ C. Each Contractor shall maintain proper and sufficient equipment on-site to effect comprehensive daily clean- up of the affected roads and proper, timely road re- pairs, and submit phone numbers where an agent of the Contractor can be reached at all times.

The V i II age Eng- ineer, under the direction and with the concurrence of the Village Manager, may extend these dates because of factors outside the Contractor's control (eege weather conditions, unknown/unexpected subsoil conditions, etc. ) " . -2- III.
