ENGINEER shall be entitled to rely on the results of such tests. 2.5.9. Disagreements between OWNER and, Contractor. ENGINEER shall render the initial decisions on all claims of OWNER and Contractor relating to the acceptability, of the work or the interpretation of the requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the work.

Neither ENGINEER's review of Contractor's work for the purposes of recommending payments nor ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment (including final payment) will impose on ENGI- NEER responsibility to supervise, direct or control such work or for the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction or safety precautions or programs incident thereto, or Contractor's compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or orders applicable to Contractor's furnishing and performing the work. ,It will also not impose responsibility on ENGINEER to make any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes Contractor has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or to determine that title to any of the work, materials or equipment has passed to OWNER free and clear of any' liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances, or that there may not be other matters at issue between OWNER and Contractor that might affect the amount that should be paid. 2.5.11.

Georgia 30911 Address for giving notices: 344 Telfair Street Augusta. Geoqda 30901 Page 19 of 19 pages This is EXHIBIT A, consisting of.2 page( s), referred to in the agreement between OWNER and ENGINEER for Professional Services, dated October 1, 1999 Further Description of Basic lEngineeri,lg Services and Related Matters Initial: OWNER ENGINEER ~ Scope: We would propose the following sequence of work and associated costs: 1. Obtain an as-built and topographic survey of the area of the proposed box culvert extension. This will include the necessary information in order to design the culvert extension as well as determine the extent of filling required and repair and stabilization of the existing channel which has been eroded due to the velocity of the water exiting the existing culvert. Elevations will be based upon mean sea level. For this we would propose to us Bennie C. Harbin, RLS. Upon notice to proceed, we should have the surveying 'accomplished within 2 weeks. 2. Design and produce plans ready for construction to include a detailed estimate in accordance with GA DOT standards. Preliminary plans should be complete within 2 weeks upon receipt of the surveying data. Mter your review, we should be able to complete the plans within a week after your review, barring major changes. 3. We would propose that the surveying services be on a lump sum amount of $850. This will include the area from Skinner Mill Road to the fence corner of the U-Store Company which should be sufficient for the scope of work anticipated. 4. We would propose that our engineering fee to accomplish the work as detailed, be a lump sum fee of $7,250.00. This will include all work necessary to design and produce contract drawings for construction of the culvert extension. 5. Based upon our initial investigation, it appears that we will have to apply for permitting through the U.s. C.O.E. and EPD as they will view this work as being in Waters of the State. As a minimum we will need to have the wetlands flagged and prepare a report and plan to the U.S. C.O.E. for application under one of the nationwide permits. We would suggest that a budget figure for this work be $2,000 for.an outside consultant certified in wetland delineation and preparation of a report for the Corps. We have worked on a number projects with George McDavid of Johnson, Laschober & Associates and would recommend utilizing his services unless you would prefer someone else equally qualified to perform this part of the work.
