Common use of Sand Clause in Contracts

Sand. 5.5.1 The Contractor shall make his own arrangement for procurement of sand of approved quality and the same should be got approved from the Engineer- in-charge before it is used on the work. However, if the quarry proposed by the contractor does not yield adequate suitable sand, no claims can be raised against the Department. In that case, another quarry location will have to be established by the Contractor at his own cost and risk. The sand from such quarries should be got approved from the Department before using it on the work. The Contractor shall have to make arrangement at his cost for construction and maintenance of all roads leading to and from sand quarries to the work site as required by him.
