Historical Performance Work Statement: SECTION C-2 Grass Mowing and Maintenance of Landscaped Areas C-2.3 WORK TO BE PERFORMED. a. Ordering Mowings. When a Task Order is issued to mow a designated area, mowing shall be completed in the order and within the period of performance specified by the COR (either by weekly work order or the approved Contractor's schedule). This excludes variances, i.e. weekends, holidays, or other variances allowed or required by the COR. All variances allowed or required by the COR will be submitted to the Contractor in writing. The COR may cancel a mowing and/or trimming operation under special circumstances, e.g., wet ground or safety hazards. An amount shall be deducted from the task order equal to the cost of mowing/trimming the area where a service was cancelled. The cost of mowing/trimming the area is calculated by determining the percentage of the acreage of the corresponding Contract Line Item that was not mowed and/or trimmed. b. Grass Height. Mowing and trimming in each area must be done in such a manner as to provide uniform grass height. The heights of cuts are broken into two different types: Type I Cut—the required cut height is three inches and normally mowed when the grass height is less than six inches.
