A professional engineer shall be retained by the applicant for
construction inspection(s) and such engineer shall be approved by
the Town. The professional engineer shall provide daily reports, pictures
of work, and certification of all work to the Town Highway Superintendent
prior to any work being accepted by the Town. The applicant shall
provide the necessary manpower and equipment required for inspections.
The presence of the professional engineer at the work site shall in
no way lessen the applicant's responsibility for conforming to
the approved plans. Should such engineer accept materials, or work
that does not conform to the approved plans, whether from lack of
discovery or for any other reason, it shall in no way prevent later
rejection of, or corrections to, the unsatisfactory materials or work
when discovered. The applicant shall have no claim for losses suffered
due to any necessary removals or repairs resulting from the unsatisfactory
work. Any work which has been covered without the professional engineer's
approval, shall, at such engineer's request, be uncovered and
be made available for inspection at the applicant's expense.
Written certification by a professional engineer shall be required
from the applicant certifying to the Town, NYSDEC, NYSDOH, or any
other applicable regulatory agency that the highway, utilities, erosion
and sediment controls, and/or stormwater management systems were constructed
in accordance with the approved plans.
