This is so monotonous. Do you notice how Corrente has spoken to everyone, done all the research, but to this date cannot post one piece of data on any subject. His humiliation has no boundaries. For clarification purposes from someone who has been involved in countless municipal projects in Massachusetts, the "CLERK OF THE WORKS" is hired by the municipality and works for the municipality as a record keeper providing oversight of the GC (General Contractor) or CM (Construction Manager). They are not hired by the independent third party testing agency.

Incidentally, I have been on numerous projects where the clerk of the works has zero construction background and is a political appointee, typically a retired guy who comes and goes as he pleases, and shuffles a bit of paperwork. I have also seen the opposite where the clerk of the works is a former licensed superintendent with enormous construction experience, as an example, the West Bridge Water High School (which came in about $3 million under budget).
