In no event shall acceptance of any WSDOT payment of grant funds by the CONTRACTOR constitute or be construed as a waiver by CONTRACTOR of any WSDOT breach, or default which shall in no way impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to CONTRACTOR with respect to any breach or default. Section 23 WSDOT Advice The CONTRACTOR bears complete responsibility for the administration and success of the work as it is defined in this AGREEMENT and any amendments thereto.

No controversy concerning any covenant or provision shall delay the performance of any other covenant or provision except as herein allowed.
