1-09.9	Payments 
(July 8, 2024, APWA GSP, Option B)

Delete the fourth paragraph and replace it with the following:

Progress payments for completed work and material on hand will be based upon progress estimates prepared by the Engineer.  A progress estimate cutoff date will be established at the preconstruction conference.

The initial progress estimate will be made not later than 30 days after the Contractor commences the work, and successive progress estimates will be made every month thereafter until the Completion Date.  Progress estimates made during progress of the work are tentative, and made only for the purpose of determining progress payment.  The progress estimates are subject to change at any time prior to the calculation of the Final Payment.

The value of the progress estimate will be the sum of the following:
1.	Unit Price Items in the Bid Form — the approximate quantity of acceptable units of work completed multiplied by the unit price.
2.	Lump Sum Items in the Bid Form — based on the approved Contractor’s lump sum breakdown for that item, or absent such a breakdown, based on the Engineer’s determination.
3.	Materials on Hand — 100 percent of invoiced cost of material delivered to Job site or other storage area approved by the Engineer.
4.	Change Orders — entitlement for approved extra cost or completed extra work as determined by the Engineer.

Progress payments will be made in accordance with the progress estimate less:
1.	Retainage per Section 1-09.9(1), on non FHWA-funded projects;
2.	The amount of Progress Payments previously made; and
3.	Funds withheld by the Contracting Agency for disbursement in accordance with the Contract Documents.

Progress payments for work performed shall not be evidence of acceptable performance or an admission by the Contracting Agency that any work has been satisfactorily completed.  The determination of payments under the contract will be final in accordance with Section 1‑05.1.
