Developer shall, within five (5) calendar days of beginning of any delay, including a Force Majeure event, notify District in writing of causes of delay including documentation and facts explaining the delay and the direct correlation between the cause and effect (“Notice of Delay”). If Developer fails to provide its written Notice of Delay within this timeframe, Developer waives, releases, and discharges any right to assert or claim any entitlement to an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the Contract Time based on circumstances giving rise to the asserted delay.

Following submission of a claim, the District may determine whether the delay is to be considered avoidable or unavoidable, how long it continues, and to what extent the prosecution and completion of the Work might be delayed thereby. 16.2.3 In the event Developer requests an extension of Contract Time for unavoidable delay as set forth in subparagraph 16.2.1, such request shall be submitted in accordance with the provisions in the Contract Documents governing changes in Work, including without limitation, the time requirements set forth in subsection 17.5, below. When requesting time, requests must be submitted with full justification and documentation. If Developer fails to submit justification, it waives its right to a time extension at a later date.
