determination of reasonableness with respect to all invoiced charges. Charges which appear to
be unreasonable will be researched and challenged, and that portion of the invoice held in
abeyance until a settlement can be reached. Upon determining that invoiced charges are not
reasonable, the Commonwealth shall promptly notify the contractor, in writing, as to those
charges which it considers unreasonable and the basis for the determination. A contractor may
not institute legal action unless a settlement cannot be reached within thirty (30) days of

The date of mailing of any payment by U. S. Mail is deemed to be payment to the
addressee. These provisions apply to each sub-tier contractor performing under the
primary contract. A contractor’s obligation to pay an interest charge to a subcontractor
may not be construed to be an obligation of the Community Services Board.

CONTROL ACT OF 1986, DEBARMENT STATUS, ANTITRUST, MANDATORY USE OF
