Description

The Construction Contract serves as a formal agreement between a Contractor and an Owner for the construction of a residential property in Minnesota. This document outlines essential details, including the scope of work, work site location, and responsibilities regarding permits and soil conditions. Notably, it stipulates that the Contractor is not liable for soil conditions unless additional site work is requested by the Owner. The contract ensures that the Owner must provide necessary surveys and title opinions before construction begins. Key features include provisions for changes in the scope of work through written Change Orders, payment terms based on either cost plus or fixed fee structures, and late payment penalties. The warranty coverage is limited to one year for defects in workmanship, transferring material warranties to the Owner. This contract is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and owners involved in construction projects, offering a clear framework for responsibilities and expectations. Paralegals and legal assistants can also benefit by using this template to ensure all legal requirements are met and that proper documentation is in place.

Climate change, along with invasive annual grasses and human ignitions, have led to an increase in area burned, longer fire seasons, and more frequent and severe wildfires in inland Northwest rangelands. Since 1900, average annual temperatures in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington have increased by nearly 2° F.

Whether sparked by lightning or human-caused, wildfires can harm fish and wildlife habitat and damage nearby homes or other structures. They're often costly to extinguish and can negatively affect air and water quality.

Cooling with water is one of the most typical ways of putting out a fire. The fuel is cooled until it produces insufficient vapor to ignite. The drop in temperature is achieved by applying enough water to create a negative heat balance.

The effects of smoke from wildfires can range from eye and respiratory tract irritation to more serious disorders, including reduced lung function, bronchitis, exacerbation of asthma and heart failure, and premature death.
