In orderto keep the contract alive after expiry of contractual period' ProvisionalTime
exiension willbe granted by CE/|\4M in all such cases without going into merit. Such
Provisional Time Exiension will be without prejudice to ihe. obligaiion of the
contractor under contract and further without prejudice to HVPNLS right to levy LD
and other right under the contraci ciearly indicaied in the Perfofma of Provisjonal
Time Extension (Annexure-Vlll).
h) The
cases for ihe time extension shall bedecided on ihefollowing basis.
A.
Reasons which can be attributed to r:mployer for which condonation of
delay is allowed for time extension case:
(i)
Shifting of zero daie due to not handing over of cleaf site by HVPNL or other
local problems or any other valid reasorrs npt aftribuiable io the contractor.
(ii)
Extreme change in GELO by HVPN which may change entife orientation ofthe
subsiation and work cannot be staried
."
(iii)
Agitation and genuine ROW problem due to which entrre construction activities
remained held up.
(iv)
(v.)
"Force Majeure" condltions as defined in ihe Conir?ct.
Delay due to'crossing of Railway, Power Line, Highway etc. and forest
clearance case may be considered on rnerit keeping in view the time taken tor
iniiiating the case by the contractor and final approval and a!so keeping in view
that all ihe parallel activity must have b{}en completed.
(vi)
Regarding approval of vendor, HVPNT- will convey comments if any on the
request of the contractor within 10 day{r. Delay beyond 7 days for reply to the
comments of the department by the contractor will ccunt towards delay on the
part of the contractor. Similarly, delay beyond 10 days after ihe receipt of final
repiy from the contractorwill count towa rds delay on the parl of the department.
(vii)
Regarding approval of drawing/cELO (in case of revision only), HVPN will
approve or comment on ihe Drawings submitted by the contractor within 28
days. The delay beyond 21 days (inciuriing postal time both ways) for reply to
the eomments of HVPN will count towards delay on the pari of the contractor.
Similarly delay in approval beyond 21 {jays after the feceipt of reply from the
contractor will couni towards delay on the part of the deparlntent.
.9
(Viii) negaraing inspection of maierial & issue of Dl, lnspector for the inspection
shall be nominated wiihin 7 days from the receipt of inspection call from the
contractor. Delay beyond this period will count towards the depanmenr.
HVPNL shall issue a certificate for acceptance of factory tests & issue Dl within
15 days of the receipt of inspectjon repod. Delay beyond th is period
will count
towards delay on the part of the department.
