DOCUMENT 00300

INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO GENERAL CONTRACTOR

1.Geotechnical Investigations by:

a.Results of a general historical investigation of the area are contained in a report by
Converse Consultants entitled "Geological Investigation Report for Proposed
Caltech Broad Center" dated September 24, 1999 prepared for California
Institute of Technology. The report is not part of the Contract Documents and is
made available to the Contractor for his information only. The Owner assumes
no responsibility whatsoever in respect to the sufficiency or the accuracy of the
investigations made, the records thereof or the interpretations set forth therein.
Such investigations have been made for the purposes of study and design and
there is no representation, either express or implied, that the conditions
indicated in the investigation reports or records are representative of those
existing throughout the site or any part thereof, or that unlooked for develop-
ments may not occur or that materials other than or in proportions different from
those indicated may not be encountered.

b.During construction, if the Contractor encounters soil or subsurface conditions which
differ materially from those shown in the Drawings or in the investigation records
referred to above, the Contractor shall promptly, and before such condition is
disturbed, notify the Owner's Representative in writing of such conditions. Any
claims of the Contractor shall not be allowed unless he has given the required
written notice. The Owner's Representative will investigate the conditions. If
he finds the conditions materially different from those which reasonably should
have been anticipated on the basis of a careful consideration of said records of
investigations, logs of borings, and examination of the site, and finds that said
conditions will cause an increase or decrease in the cost of, and/or the time
required for performance of the Contract, the Owner will modify the Contract
terms in writing to provide for an adjustment as permitted in the General
Condition in cost and/or time of performance. In rendering his decision, the
Owner's Representative will use the boring results and other studies of the site,
and such technical assistance therewith from the Soils Engineer as may be
required, but nothing in such use shall serve to imply that the status of the boring
results and other studies has changed. They are not part of the Contract
Documents.

c.The Geotechnical Investigation is available for viewing at Caltech. The geotechnical
Investigation report can be purchased from Converse Consultants; telephone
(626) 930-1233.
