The cost to City for administration, inspection, mileage, and other similar items would be extremely difficult to determine. For that reason, additional liquidated damages, known as Administrative Delay Liquidated Damages may also be applied to compensate City for undue delays in the completion of punch list items, Final Binder (as defined in the General Conditions and Technical Specifications attached hereto as Exhibit F), site clean-up, and demobilization, after Commercial Operation has been achieved. Provider shall complete site clean-up and demobilization within thirty (30) days of Commercial Operation Date. At any time after the expiration of such 30-day period, the City shall provide written notice to Provider of any outstanding work the City reasonably determines Provider must complete. If Provider has not cured such issues within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such notice (as shall be extended by an additional fifteen (15) days if Provider is diligently pursuing such cure), Administrative Delay Liquidated Damages shall be imposed in the amount of $250 per day. Charges will be assessed until City reasonably agrees that all outstanding work has been completed.
