I have included project management time, review time with the Owner, and construction
documents. Also included is design oversight and review by irrigation design specialist
Royal Waldock, to ensure proper hydraulic design due to elevational gain and loss of the
site. Printing costs will be billed at the printing costs plus 10% these are on top of the
fixed design fee. A copy of my E 0 policy can be fourth coming if required by the
