After the preliminary engineering report has been reviewed by FmHA and the OWNER directs the ENGINEER to
proceed, the ENGINEER will perform the necessary design surveys, accomplish the detailed design of the project,
prepare detailed drawings, specifications and contract documents, and make a final cost estimate based on the final
design for the entire system. It is also understood that if subsurface explorations such as borings, soil tests and the like
are required to determine amounts of rock excavation or foundation conditions, the ENGINEER will furnish
supervision of said explorations without additional charge, but the costs incident to such explorations, no matter
whether they are performed by the ENGINEER or by others, shall be paid for by the OWNER as set out in Section D
hereof.
The contract documents furnished by the ENGINEER under Section A-6 above shall utilize FmHA-endorsed standard
construction contract documents, including FmHA Supplemental General Conditions, Contract Change Orders and
