A. — Progress Payments. The OWNER will once each month make a progress payment to the
CONTRACTOR on the basis of an estimate of the total amount of work done to the time of the estimate and
its value as prepared by the CONTRACTOR and approved by the ENGINEER. All such payments will be
measured by the schedule of values established in paragraph 2.07.A of the General Conditions (and in the
case of Unit Price Work based on the number of units completed) or, in the event there is no schedule of
values, as provided in the General Requirements.
B. Retainage. The OWNER will retain a portion of the progress payment, each month, in
accordance with the following procedures:
1. The OWNER will establish an escrow account in the bank of the OWNER’s
choosing. The account will be established such that interest on the principal will be
paid to the CONTRACTOR. The principal will be the accumulated retainage paid
into the account by the OWNER. The principal will be held by the bank, available
only to the OWNER, until termination of the contract.
2. Until the work is 50% complete, as determined by the ENGINEER, retainage shall
be 10% of the monthly payments claimed. The computed amount of retainage will be
deposited in the escrow account established above.
