16. PERMIT LIABILITY WAIVER
By waiving the option for a permit by intention or by accepting an estimate without a permit listed or as an exclusion, the owner fully agrees to bear the responsibility of applying, pulling, and paying for any permits, inspections or approvals from the “Authority Having Jurisdiction” (AHJ) as defined as an organization, office, or individual responsible for enforcing the requirements of a code or standard, or for approving equipment, materials, an installation, or a procedure. If the owners obtain the permit they act as the contractor and are responsible for completing the work and to assure that it meets code requirements. Interaction then takes place between AHJ inspectors and the owner. If the owner has hired a contractor or other person to do some of the work and it is not done in accordance with the approved plans and/or code requirements of the AHJ, the inspector will ask the owner, not the contractor, to have the work redone. In other words, if the owner obtains the permit it is the owner's responsibility to make sure the work is being done in accordance with the approved plans, codes and AHJ specific requirements. Unless specified in the quote/estimate, work order or invoice, the scope of work may or may not fully comply with AHJ requirements and it is the responsibility of the owner to ensure compliance of such standards. Any additional work required to bring the existing or new installation up to AHJ requirements regardless of electrical, aesthetic, placement, painting, installation and other methods and means which were not included in the original scope of work will be considered a change order and billed as additional work.
17. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Client shall have no liability whatsoever for consequential, indirect, delay, special, incidental or liquidated damages whether arising in contract, tort, indemnity, warranty, strict liability or otherwise.
