<br />schedule, space requirements and relationships, flexibility and expandability, special equipment, systems, sustainability
<br />and site requirements.
<br />§ 4.1.2 Prior to the execution of the Guaranteed Maximum Price Amendment, the Construction Manager may request in
<br />writing that the Owner provide reasonable evidence that the Owner has made financial arrangements to fulfill the Owner’s

<br />shall thereafter agree to a corresponding change in the Project’s scope and quality.

<br />with reasonable promptness after receiving the Construction Manager’s written request for such information or services.
<br />The Construction Manager shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of information and services furnished by the Owner
<br />but shall exercise proper precautions relating to the safe performance of the Work.
<br />§ 4.1.4.1 The Owner shall furnish tests, inspections, and reports, required by law and as otherwise agreed to by the parties,

<br />adjacent drainage; rights-of-way, restrictions, easements, encroachments, zoning, deed restrictions, boundaries and
<br />contours of the site; locations, dimensions and other necessary data with respect to existing buildings, other improvements
<br />and trees; and information concerning available utility services and lines, both public and private, above and below grade,
